I've searched around for this, but I haven't found any answers for my problem. I'm trying to root my droid incredible using unrevoked on my mac, but unrevoked isn't recognizing my phone even though I have it on charge only and usb debugging on. I'm not sure if this could have anything to do with it, but whenever I plug in my phone there is a pop up saying something about ntfs-3g and a problem that it had. Does anyone have an idea how to fix this and get the root to work?
Few ideas
1 install HTC sync, which is on your phone, this will install drivers. After HTC sync and drivers install, delete HTC sync from computer but leave drivers.
2 if that doesn't fix some friends that I've rooted I actually had to change to disk drive once plug in.
Either way make sure drivers are installed. Best of luck

Well you don't need to install any drivers on a mac though. Try disk drive mode.

I tried disk drive mode and it still didn't work
Hmm, I don't think I've ever had that error message pop up that you mentioned in the first post, do you have any trouble doing anything when you connect with USB? Do the drives pop up and you can move files around? And what message is unrevoked giving you when you start it up after connecting your phone? Maybe try switching between charge only and disk drive mode.

It doesn't seem like I'm having any trouble connecting with usb. I'm able to move miles around and put files on it. Unrevoked says "waiting for device. plug in phone now and enable usb debugging." I do everything it says, and I have switched between charge only and disk drive mode but nothing happens.
I'm really not sure what the problem is.. Perhaps a hardware issue? Have you tried different USB cables? Maybe a different computer? Are you running the latest version of OSX?

i'm going to try someone else's computer
im not sure why it wasn't working on my computer, but i'm running unrevoked on a friend's computer and it is working. thanks for the help though.
Alright cool, sorry I couldn't think of anything..

I've got an GT-P7500, and it will not read any USB Sticks.
Using the Samsung connection kit.
tried with 15 different USB sticks, all FAT32 formatted, all sizes 1-16gb.
A friend uses a 4gb stick in a GT-P7510, i tested that one, didn't work
Other things like usb mouse works, but not usb stick.
Anyone got any suggestions ?
Wonder if there is something wrong with it.
How do you know it isn't working? What directory are you looking at? What does the notification bar show? Which connector are you using? Is USB debugging on?
Also this is more a Q/A...
I'm hoping this thread is still alive because I am having the same problem. @ajnindlo I'm using the standard Samsung USB Connector with a 8gb usb stick. I've tried with USB Debugging on & off and I get the same message. "Damaged USB" and asked me to reformat.
I am using a Mac BUT I did format the stick as a ms-dos fat format.
Please help...
Thank you
PS. I know this is more of a q&a place, didn't know where else to post and didn't find any other with this problem but here. Please redirect to correct location if you know of a solution. Thank you
Just i hace received my USB kit and it works perfectly, my USB has 16 g and i haven't do anything to work, conected and work.

I had a 32 GB sd card and it also wouldn't be detected by my Galaxy Tab. But, I plugged it into my phone, plugged my phone into the computer, formatted the sd card and when I put in my Gtab, it worked.
I got my connection kit today but its not working at all.
Got 2 adaptors 1 for sd card and 1 for usb connection they both dont work.
Got no status bar message or anything.
Do I miss something here?

one catch that I have realized is that for proper identification of the USB Stick, the tablet must be in english language.
My friend had a hard time figuring out why his tablet won't show up any notification when a USB Stick was connected, whereas mine shows the "My Files" app showing the storage folder and all the contents of the stick, joking around I told him that was because my tablet was in english and his tablet was not.
Anyway, Astro file explorer doesn't work with USB Sticks, Use ES File Explorer instead and look in /mnt/ folder for usbdrive , there should be your content.
Nope still not working. No files found.
Feels like my device doesnt support usb host.
Is that possible?

Connect the usb stick, open ES File explorer and go to /mnt/usbdrive folder, if you can't find the folder (which is not on the sdcard) you need to configure ES File explorer to get out of the sdcard directory, the usbdrive folder is always present even if you don't have any usb drive connected
I had similiar problems with my 16GB P7510. It would only recognize any of my Sandisk sticks and a brand new PNY only at 30% of the time. The only stick it was reliable with was an ancient 256MB stick I had. I worked fine with my camera.
I ended up returning it for a 32GB P7510 and have not had any problems with any of the sticks. At the time I didn't think the tablet was defective but it appears it was.

I have exact the same issue, but it's strange, some SD has this issue, some don't.
"Damaged USB"
I found a trick, but it solved my problem only once: format SD card by a digital camera (Canon powershot) , SD was now recognized by Tab10.1
Putting some extra files on it by PC ... insert SD to Tab10.1 ... same issue again :crying:
Have tried several SD formats & sizes ... notting helps
Did someone knows a solution to solve this problem
GT-P7510
Android 3.2
Rooted, TASK 14 Rom
Try to reboot, it worked for me.

Correct ... but after a second or third time connecting same SD , issue returns
Have tried this, waiting for a while does helps time to time ... so I guess it's maybe "memory" or "kernel" (system) related.
It seems we have the same TASK14 ROM + Pershoot's kernel.
Strange things.
I made the test by unroot my device and went back to factory stock ... it look like the issue is solved for 90% ... it appears when you disconnect and reconnect to fast after the 1st disconnection .
usb not recognised
Nothing happens when i plug (several) usb sticks. /mnt/usbdrive is empty.
Any idea?
charging Problem
You must Check that Your usb Debugging is On or Not as it creates problems and this will be stopping You device from Accepting Usb Sticks..
I found that FAT 'sdCard's would mount , but that NONE of my NTFS sticks would mount
All my sticks are NTFS , so that was unacceptable.
rooted 7500 and 6800
Installed 'Paragon NTFS&FHS', from the AndroidMarket and all files now popup in 'MyFiles' when I insert the usb with the adaptor
I have the Samsung Connection Kit containing as USB and a SD adapter. The USB adapter works fine, but the SD adapter doesn't work at all. All it does is starting the TuneIn Radio app when it is connected. I uninstalled the app and now connecting the adapter has no effect at all. Any suggestions?
Hi,
Been trying to find an answer to this for a while but so far no joy. I've found a few similar threads but none with likely answers/fixes.
Anyway here goes;
I decided to finally root my DHD now that it's out of warranty. I downloaded AAHK, read the effen manual and plugged my phone in ready to go... and nothing happened.
My phone charges via USB but I get no icons in the notification bar, nothing to ask what I'd like to do (mount as disk drive, charge only etc) and nothing pops up on my PC to say its detected a phone attached.
I've checked settings and it's set to mount as disk drive by default and also set to ask me what I want to do.
I've tried manually altering from mount as disk drive to charge only and back again. I've tried it with USB Debugging on and off. I've rebooted the phone. I've powered down, performed a battery pull, powered up again and tried it - still nothing.
I've tested the SD card in a card reader and it seems fine. I've tried a different USB cable, different USB ports and even a different PC! Still the same story - charges okay but nothing else.
Meanwhile my g/f's phone (a Wildfire) mounts fine with the same cable on the same PC - so clearly the problem lies with my phone specifically and not the cable, SD card or PC.
My phone is a sim-free DHD just over a year old. It's all stock atm - Android 2.3.5, Sense 3.0, Software Number 3.12.405.1
Do I (as I fear) have a bricked USB port? Does anyone else have this problem?
Any help will be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
The port itself could have something stuck on one of the contacts, or is dirty and keeping plug from fully seating. Other than that your port could be bad. To bad you are out of warranty.

Yeah I was afraid of that. I was hoping - vainly - that it may have been a software fault.
Still, at least I can still charge it... for now!
Thanks for the reply.

I just bought a galaxy s2 running stock gb on ebay and whenever I plug it in any pc it only charges. There is no usb notification nor does computer play a sound when the phone is connected. The phone makes a sound and just charges no matter what I do, I have tried usb debugging on/off and nothing. When I go into wifi/connection settings and select usb mode it says to connect a cable when the usb cable is already connected. I have tried many usb cables including the original samsung one.
Did I just buy a defective phone or am I missing something?
You need the drivers, either Google it or wait for someone to post a link, your call.

Try all usb ports as well! Even without the drivers you should still be able to use it as mass storage device

Are you using a data cable and not just a regular charging cable? You still see the option to connect mount the SD card evn without the drivers.

I'm not sure if this works on stock gb buy try going to settings/storage. Then press menu and if another settings option comes up then go there and see if there is an option to mount as mass storage device

Having the same issue, can it be that I am using a backed up ROM? I know that there are times when having a backed up ROM changes your system to R/O instead of R/W

MY PC basically does three quick beeps, like the ones it would make when connecting to the phone.... the only difference is when properly connected it would make one beep. I have 6 USB ports and have used all of them. In Root Explorer it states "Cannot detect SD card" that happened after i clicked on SD card to see what files were there.
I did a fresh flash of a ROM and now I am not having issues connecting to PC.
similar problem
I have the same problem of my gs2 not connecting to the computer. The only difference is that it isn't new, and I've been connecting to the computer using the exact same cord for a while.
I'm not really sure what the problem could be, it was working fine as recently as yesterday
Had the same issue I had to send it in for repairs USB port on the phone was effed up

Install moboro on ur PC, make sure developer options is enabled, and debugging is ticked, moboro will install needed drivers for phone to be seen, check to see if the phone is rooted y downloading root checker from play store, if it is rooted it may be an issue with the rom, try downloading Odin and putting the phone in download mode, Odin should see the device and say "added", if so go to sammobile.com find ur devices newest firmware and DL the file, use odin to flash the firmware on the phone, should solve all issue, u can also use Odin without being rooted too so, if u need more info, links or whatever, just let me know

WARNING
I had the same problem about a month ago. I had sent it to Samsung and they replaced the USB part of my phone. So if nothing works, DON'T PREFORM A FACTORY RESET IF YOU'RE ON STOCK! THAT CAN MAKE YOU STUCK ON A BOOT LOOP! but if you're lucky then everything will work fine. I only say this because it happened to me.
Hi, I have a rooted Wildfire S. The problem i recently noticed and haven't had since now is when i put the usb cable in my phone and activate usb mass storage then when i try to copy anything to the phone midway through the copying i get a message saying that the device is disconnected on my pc, but on my phone everything seems to be ok. Please help me, I also have a message on my computer saying that i should scan and fix the device. I have done it a dozen of times but nothing has changed

I'm not using the original SD Card, but a 8Gb one I bought for 15 euros. It's class 10, and as far as the USB Cable goes, i've done what you've suggested, but had no success
Check for loose usb port... generally this happens when a usb port is loose.
Try inserting it in different port as well and also i'd like you to watch for dust in both ports (Phone as well as USB)
