I just got my Note 2 yesterday, haven't rooted it or anything (yet) and I'm having an issue connecting it to my car stereo via usb. The stereo says USB not available, but when I connect either of my Skyrockets (one stock No root, the other on Embryo 6.4) they connect almost immediately. Any ideas?

Got the same problem I gave up lol

Well you're no help man lol jk.
I'll trouble shoot it tonight. I think it's something with the way it connects because it says "connected as a media device" which is something I'm not familiar with. I'm used to phones simply saying "usb connected".
Something else I've noticed is when I connect it to the pc only the internal storage is visible but my sd card isn't. I'm sure that's been addressed somewhere already but idk.

Try blutooth...thats how mine operates
All u need to talk through your stereo.... is a lil mic.
U just run the mic through your dash and up your left dash pannel or whenever u choose to mount.

Just wanted to give this post a "bump" lol. And yeah I noticed that too theres an option in the notification bar to how u want to connect either As media device or cemera, none worked though.

Chances are the stereo is expecting UMS connections rather than the MTP/PTP the n2 is providing. This is why you see the phone as a device on windows rather than as drives.
UMS: usb mass storage
Mtp/ptp: media/photo transfer protocol
(Please correct me if I borked those names)
Also, threw / through.

I would love to help you, but help yourself first: ask a better question

Yeah, I did a quick Google search and read that Samsung disabled usb mass storage on newer devices. Pretty stupid, but it explains everything. Thanks for the help guys.

Hi guys.
HELP HELP HELP!
Sorry, I just have a pretty major issue. I had it with AOKP M6 and I thought it was a bug.
I was pretty excited to see USB mass storage built in to the rom. So plugged in a usb drive, all was well, showed up everywhere, could browse it etc. Sweet.
Next day, wanted to see how much room I have left on my phone. Go into settings > storage and it crashes. Settings stops. Rebooted. Happens again. I can no longer go into settings/storage. Deleted cache, data, fixed perms... nothing fixes it.
Please help if anyone knows about this. Maybe I didn't unmount but I'd hope there's a work around if you sometimes you forget to do so. I've tried almost everything. Clearing settings data etc. Nothing. It just wont go into thy part of the settings.
Thanks heaps guys.

You can't use USB Mass Storage on the Nexus. There's no partitions or SDcard to mount. The Settings app crashing and all of those issues are unrelated, and you're having a different problem there.
Yeah I know. But CM9 has it built in.

CM9 has the ability to use Mass Storage on phones that can use USB Mass Storage.
The Galaxy Nexus cannot use USB Mass Storage.

It doesn't magically give the phone partitions or an SDcard to mount.
I may of been misunderstood here.
What I mean is, with an OTG cable you can plug a USB stick into the phone and have use of it through certain apps. ES Explorer, MX player etc. Without the need for 'stickmount".
Well, I found the problem. With the help from another user. I was using Francos kernel as I find the CM one extremely slow and laggy. That's what was causing the issue.
Now it works. No problem. Just wish I could speed things up just a bit. Really laggy keyboard action.
Does anyone know a fix for this?
Thanks.

Hi all, I have been having this problem for a while and now i am tired of it. For sometime, when transferring files from my pc with win 7 to the my phones external sd, its moves really slow. the progress bar, time remaining and speed all moves very slow. When using any other devices it works correctly so i know its something with the epic. For instance, it may say its going a 1mb per second but it sits there and about every five or maybe even more seconds, it updates the speed or time remaining but shows barely any progress...
Do you have the official drivers installed? And dumb question is it a high speed USB port (2.0+)
Sent from my SPH-D710 using XDA
It could be related to the speed of your card, the quality of your cable, and even which usb port you use. Or a combination of the three.
Try changing one of these, especially the cable or usb port and try out an app called sd tools. It will give you more information about actual read write speed to your card.

The official one from Samsung. Windows will find a driver to use for this phone(generic). You can find the download link in one of sfhub's one click Odin threads.

iSyncr? Though haven't tried that before.
Who has a working method? I mean they can't make this so hard putting music on a phone from a macbook....
There's been other posts about this I'm pretty sure, did you search to find similar threads? Search the other lte variants forums as well.

I do it manually. Pop my micro sd card into the usb slot on my macbook and use finder to copy files over. I'm using neutron music player so it handles my mp3 and m4a/alac lossless files with no problem.
There's a couple apps that try to automate this but my collection doesn't change a lot so I found this approach easier.

Oh, and if you want to use the built-in storage on the device, the android file transfer app for mac works and is fast - even faster than copying to my sd card.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using xda app-developers app
The issue I have is when I am copying files over, it says screen is locked but its not and then transfer stops through android file transfer..i could put the micro sd in a sd card in the card reader...
I searched but couldn't find anything...could anyone post those links?
Samsung Kies?
Andriid file transfer doesnt even work for me. Wont read that the phone is even plugged in.

Make sure your device is connected as a camera, not an mtp device.

I have tried that but it still gives me the same message. If I use the UMS app I can get access to external without android file transfer but not internal. I really would like access as my backup from my old phone are all on my mac

I use TuneSync. It will allow wired or wireless syncing of music from iTunes to your android device. Fairly simple to set up.
Here is the Play Store link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/...EsImNvbS5oaWdod2luZHNvZnR3YXJlLnR1bmVzeW5jIl0.
Easy phone tunes is the best one I used so far. I haven't upgraded to mountain lion so not sure if it compatible. However the only annoying thing is that you can only sync everything or 1 playlist. But it's super fast so I guess that makes up for the lack of functions.

Just downloaded this. Well worth the few bucks, IMO.
Thanks for the link.
Screen is cracked not working but I do have clockwork recovery installed.
Question is what button sequence do I have to hit to get to mount the USB storage and access the files on my PC?
if I go into recovery I know I have to hit up 2x but from there I don't know where to go.
Help Plz!!!
If you have windows xp or above once you plig in your gs3 a window should pop up....there you can view all the files on your phone...or download Kies feom samsung and your phone should show up there..files and all.

I'll try kies but I have the phone swipe locked and I think that's stopping me from accessing the folders.
It says connection locked in Kies.. hmm what else can I try?
I'm not sure what else you can do
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
Have you looked into screen mirroring pc programs? I know there are at least 2 or 3 options. I'm not sure if they all require the phone to be unlocked. Another option would be to do hdmi mirroring to disable the lockscreen.
Sent from my SPH-L710 using xda app-developers app
The swipe unlock shouldn't affect you being able to access your files on tge phone via pc. Once you plugin your phone windows should start installing drivers and within a few minutes allow you to browse your phones internal memory...or ext sdcard. Good luck!

So I just upgraded my galaxy note 1 to my a note 2 and I decided not to root this. I wanna tranfer my files to my ps3 but the galaxy note doesn't let me do it. Is there a way to do it with an app or so? I do not want to root

More detail please. "It doesnt do it" is not really telling us much
What error messages are you getting from pc and or phone.
Need more details of what your doing and whats going on.
:thumbup:
searching these forums, you'll find that you need to use the SGS3 Easy UMS app, found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1711009
Hope this helps!
When I plug it to my Ps3 it says "An unknown usb device has been connected" I wanna connect to my ps3 that way I can transfer files. I got it to work on my laptop but I want it for my ps3. I DO NOT want to root. Ive done it in the pass and I loved it but ima stay away from it for a while
