Has a solution been found yet to enable UMS on the Sprint GS3 ?
Does CM10 have this enabled and does it work on the Sprint GS3?

I personally went into the market for this same reason and haven't found a viable app or for that matter, solution to this problem.

I'm pretty sure XDA featured an app on the front page a while ago.
CM10 does have UMS, and it works. The only problem I had was that it would mount the phone as a CD-ROM until I toggled USB debugging (on if it was off or off if it was on), but after toggling, it worked perfectly.
Internatonal GS3 can use the EASY UMS app, but I understand that this does not work on the Sprint variant.
Thanks for posting your experience with CM10.

Try the latest version. I sent a fix to the developer cause he was taking his sweet arse time with maintaining the thread so I got sick of waiting. You may like to try my app it's self but I modded mine for the I9305 International LTE S3, so it may not even work?
Here it is worth a shot
https://dl.dropbox.com/u/43088692/SGS3Easy UMS_1.7-LTE.apk
If it doesn't work then I posted a 'How to' in the EasyUMS thread. Although the dev may have had it removed? Anyway check the main thread out. try his 1.8, try my hacked 1.7 and then if you luck out try the instructions I posted in the thread.
if worse comes to worse and they were removed then I will dig it up and post it up here for you. I can't do it for you guys cause I don't have your device and requires digging around a little bit in the root level to discover for your selves.

People have also been using samba file sharing and/or ftp servers. Both are options if you have time to wait for slower read/wrote speeds

I know for a fact that this is built into TWRP if you use that recovery. just go to mount > mount usb while the device is connected to the computer and bam faster transfers
When requiring UMS several times daily, the minor inconvenience of going into bootloader becomes a hassle.

Has anyone had success with getting USB MASS STORAGE working on the Sprint S3 ???
I just tried flashing CM10 (Stable and 10.1 M) No dice..
CM10 Stable has the option in Settings to change from MTP TO UMS, but after checking the box, it immediately unchecks and checks the MTP box.
Perhaps using a different kernel than stock would allow UMS ???
Anyone? .......Bueller??
Not sure if this is what you all are talking about but here is what I did.
Using Apex launcher, press/hold on homescreen, choose shortcut. Choose Activities. Scroll all the way down to USB settings. Click on it. It will expand to show USB settings com.sec.android.Kies.kies. Click that. What this does is put an icon on your homescreen that when you click allows you to choose between Samsung Kies or Mass Storage. Is this what you all are wanting is quick access to Mass Storage mode? Whats the difference between this and MTP? Either way, your internal and external storage shows in the PC right?
I'm on The People's ROM 3.14 BTW.

Nope. I have yet to get any Linux MTP programs to work with an Android device. Therefore, UMS is necessary to connect my phone to my computer.
Putting the ILLA in KILLA since 1985

I have had some success with gMTP on Lubuntu... Still slow as hell, so I don't consider it a victory...

Things you will need:
1) rooted phone
2) root explorer app (paid)
3) sqlite editor (paid - root explorer will direct you to it)
*** Now that cm9 is available I wanted to update this posting to let you know that these instructions are for stock gingerbread as well as the custom gingerbread roms. Cm9 has this option natively and you won't need to do this on cm9. Just want to save anyone from having problems with cm9. Now if your on gingerbread, go for it. ***
Now go to this directory with root explorer:
/data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db
(You will have an option to open it with the internal viewer or SQLite editor, choose SQLite editor)
Select secure
Now locate tether_entitlement_check_state and change the value to 0 then save and reboot.
Now you can use the built in tethering without the pop-up saying that you don't have a tethering plan.
I hope this helps you guys out.
Disclaimer: As chrisd1a1 pointed out doing this is at your own risk as far as breaking your terms of service with at&t. I do not know if at&t can detect this or what the result will be if they do. I'm just throwing this out there as another option.

Big fat thanks, dude!
Yeah it does work great. But I'm not sure if at&t can see it being used. I've used it on and off for about a month and had no problems with them. Glad it worked for you!

This is exactly why I'm using the ClockWorkMod app. I've already been kicked off my unlimited data plan once for "unauthorized tethering" and it was hell getting back on the plan. The loophole to do so is no longer available, so I really don't want to get kicked again.
I'll have to wait and see how it works out for others. But good job on showing us the way to enable it. Thumbs up!
If I'm not mistaken, the tether_entitlement_check_state will not be available in the database until first attempt enabling tethering.
interesting thread. moved to DEV as this could be handy for future development.
the only disclaimer I'll put in is that it's at your own risk if you break any terms of service from your carrier....

This is good, thanks! but I've been using pdanet along with foxfi from the market and these apps work too

Thx.
I've done this with my phone I only use the tethering maybe once a month and only for a short time. I do not know the effects of this with at&t but I figured I'd throw it out there as another option. Also I'm updating the op to state that.

I can't think of any reason why they wouldn't be able to detect it. It works the same way as it does on any other Android device.
this method has been DISABLED by ATT in the latest leaked ICS.

Hey guys, quick question: Has anyone figured out a way to re-establish UMS (USB Mass Storage) capability in CM10 (or any ROM for that matter?)
I cannot stand the MTP "feature", as it seriously hinders our device. I've searched for and attempted several different apps that don't seem to work.
I thank you for your time with this and any response that might help.
Have you tried the easy ums app? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1711009
I read where they added support for cm10 but haven't tried it myself yet.

I would like the option to use mass storage to connect the device to my car stereo. I know it isn't as good as MTS but I would still like the option to use when I want to. Is it possible to get this to work?
I would like for this to work with my ps3. There is an app called sgs3 easy ums but I can't seem to get it to work.

I considered trying that as well but since it was made for a different phone it probably wouldn't work. Couldn't get flash to work on this device either but I've asked enough questions today and if flash not working is the last one remaining I'm doing pretty good.

Check your drivers in windows. Also make sure you are NOT using fast charge.
I bet it is the cable. I had the same issue. Go to device manager and enable "show hidden devices". Then delete every driver that has something to do with your phone. Then plug your phone in with a diffrent cable. Worked for me. Also you can try to enable or disable usb debugging.

I had a similar issue. I couldn't get the phone to be recognized on my work PC (using a cable that has always worked) or at home on Mac using Android file transfer and a different cable. What I think happened in my case is that I was connected to my PC in MTP mode then I unselected MTP so that neither MTP nor PTP was selected. That is what was aiming for (I only wanted to charge not connect). Though then when I went to plug in later as described above nothing came up. I looked all over for the USB settings to change it back to MTP but couldn't find it. I am sure it is there somewhere.
Anyways, after rebooting several times with no luck, I went nuclear (factory reset) which did the trick. I am running Shiny 4.4.2 and have had a pretty buggy go of it. I am likely switching ROMs, not that this necessarily has anything to do with it.
Good luck!
So the other day I was tethering to my PC I disconnected to go eat cake back and now it won't connect to any computer. I really need to get this fixed. Thanks for the help in advanced.

what rom? Though, i've never had any success getting it working again without switching roms.

You could try reinstalling the lg drivers on the computer. Is it recognized in windows device manager or does is not come up there as well?
Yeah, I just recently had this problem as well, except I didn't get to eat cake :[. Mine does show up in device manager, but not in drives/storage. I've been having to upload everything via dropbox or adb. I was on cm11 with cwmr and switched to cmremix and also switched to the philz touch, logically I think it might be one of those or a combination of the two that did it, but I can't be sure cause I know how my phone can just be finicky sometimes.
Edit: I did try updating to the latest lg driver and that didn't help.
I'm getting this also, I use airdroid or TeamViewer instead as a workaround
