Hey guys,
I'm trying to transfer a ROM over to my phone's internal storage and I keep getting an error that says my device is not responding or not connected when I try to transfer the file. I've tried flashing to different ROMs (Hyperactive, CM10.1) and I still get the same issue in all of those ROMs... any help? For some reason I can copy files from my phone to my computer (a text back up file). I can also copy a small pdf to my phone.. anyone know how to fix this? I do have the sdcard/0/0/0/0/0 issue frm CM 10.1 but until now, that hasn't done anything.
Could be your usb cable. But you could try downloading straight to the phone. I never download roms to my pc.

Strange issue that I only noticed after upgrading to JB....
My Gallery is only showing new pictures. I see that the new pictures are in /sdcard/DCIM/Camera alongside loads of other pictures which don't show up.
I tried media re-scans but the others dont show up.
I have just connected via USB to my Windows 7 machine and noticed that the only files I see on it are the new files too. My assumption was that it would give me full access to the Internal storage however there are loads of files and folders which don't show up.
HELP!
Which rom you used to upgrade? I had the same problem, but only able to fix the exchange of rom.
I used the Rom Manager - ClockworkMod Jelly Bean. I think its Koush's
Not sure if there's a thread for that ROM?
Anyone else seeing the same issue?

I'm currently using aokp build 3. I have tried everything from MTP to PTP, use debugging to non usb debugging, Kies, Android File Transfer. Nothing seem to work. The only thing seem to be working is Airdroid which is really slow for any large file. So how do you guys transfer file on a custom rom with mac?

i am experiencing the same issues and have been for a very long time. when i first got the phone i could connect with Android File Transfer but no longer . I am running stock rooted. When I have experienced with ROM FILES, I have just put my SD card into an adapter and put it directly into my computer. This is also the safest way to transfer the file without risking corruption.
DOES ANYONE KNOW HOW TO GET MTP/PTP or UMS to work?? UMS would be preferable for me.
Here's a quick fix for doing a half-assed job of what you need. I am a fellow Mac user.
Download "SGS3 Easy UMS" (google it) APK to your phone. Install.
Connect your device to your computer. If you have Kies, it'll start saying "Connecting..." but it'll never connect.
Pop open SGS3EUMS, and click "Mount UMS" or whatever it's called.
Make sure you're rooted (shoulda said this before).
Boom. Pop open your finder. Send files to your external SD.

Can't do Internal SD, or get KiesMac or even Andriod File Transfer working after flashing CM10, or any custom ROM. Stock worked beautifully.
Hey everyone,
I've been having issues with the USB file transfer process with my SGS3.
For example, whenever I want to back up my titanium backup folder and nandroid backups to my computer's hard drive, the transfer would only transfer a few files and not all of the selected at once. I've tried using various methods of copying and still no luck.
I am having trouble backing up my phone to my computer because of this.
I am using the stock USB cable that came with the phone and the latest Samsung USB drivers are installed on said PC.
If anyone else has a similar issue or knows how to fix it so I can start flashing/updating new ROMs more frequently, please let me know.
Otherwise the phone is amazing and I have had experienced no other issues with it thus far.
Thanks!

When you're copying the files, is your phone set to mtp or ptp file transfer mode? (Assuming you're on stock Rom)
Yea I just had a problem with transferring files turned out the stock usb cable is just cheap garbage and another cable fixed me up

I gotta make a thread about this.
You didn't say what OS your PC is or S3 Carrier???. It makes a difference.
Go to Device Manager and tell me if you see Yellow Explamations?
For Win7 and probably Vista, and bell/rogers/At&t, download and reinstall these drivers.
(they are AT&T drivers but trust me...they work perfect for Rogers....and WITHOUT KIES INSTALLED!
BUT...They never quite install smoothly for me....6 PCs now.
So it may say "PROBLEM installing etc." but keep going.
Pull the usb cable out...wait a few seconds.... and re insert.
Check Device manager again.
If you still have problems....manually initiate a Windows Update while the usb is plugged in.
Pull the usb cable out...wait a few seconds.... and re insert.
If you have Xp...let me know. There are different issues.
After a couple of hours trying to find someone with the same problems as me I came up with nothing, so I decided to make a thread.
Firstly, I am no where near versed in device hacking so I am hoping these problems are just due to my ignorance.
My coworker rooted and loaded cm10 and teamwinrecovery onto my sprint GS3 and since then I have had a few issues. The most frustrating problem I am currently experiencing is the phone will not write anything to the external sd. There is no indication as to why this is the case. Under the storage option in settings it shows that it can read the external SD card yet programs seem to not be able to see that it is there. For example my camera will not give me the option to save photos to the external SD and programs like app 2 sd wont give me the option to transfer any of the apps to the SD card even ones that i know are supposed to work like Winamp. Also ive tried using DirectoryBind to change the directory of apps and music but I'm just prompted to create a new file because the data directory doesn't exist and asks if i want to create one. I tap yes and i am just prompted with the same error again and again.
My second main issue is when I dock my phone to my windows 7 PC I get an enigmatic problem. Either i get an error that says the USB malfunctioned and cannot be recognized and the SGS3 won't show up in mycomputer. Or, the default drivers install fine and the device will show up in windows. However, if i try syncing winamp or even dragging files over to my phone it will copy for anywhere from 1 second to 5 minutes and then windows will freeze and if i close the process it will crash windows and/or winamp. I tried installing the samsung usb drivers but then i just get a device ID error and it wont show up.
I was able to find some people with similar issues but not the constantly changing one i have. All the fixes that have been suggested have not worked.
I realize this is more likely an issue with my computer than my phone but when i was running stock it would work fine.
If anyone can provide some insight into these problems or can direct me to someone with a similar issue it would be much appreciated.
I really like CM10 but these issues are deal breakers for me and I dont really want to go through risking bricking my phone in order to try and get back to stock but i will if it will fix these problems.
so i just recently saw that i have the usb transferring problem, when i try to put a file on my phone it would not let me but i can get files out of the phone without any problems. i have tried flashing different roms that where previously put on the internal storage and still no luck anyone know the answer let me know
so far i have tried
changing roms
changing cables
changing pc
the error i get is "this device has either stop working or it has been disconected" but the weird part is i can still take files of the phone ?
