As far as I know you can't do it using stock roms, but anyone knows of any rom that enable this?

USB Mass Storage mode

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...

USB connection problems

Hello, I've been trying to get my phone to connect to my mac via USB but have had no luck. I've tried Kies, AFT but nothing has worked out. I'm just trying to transfer my music and bluetooth takes way to long. I've searched other threads but it seams like no one has come up with a solution to the problem, is there anyone who can point me in the right direction or have a simple fix? I'm running CM Nightly 10.1 20130222 and my Mac is running Lion 10.7.5. Any help will be appreciated, thank you.

Is that the factory cable included with the phone? Different (even rear) usb ports? Sorry for the small questions. Starting at the bottom

yes it is the factory cable, I have tried other cables as well. Tried both of my USB ports. Is there any other program other than AFT and Kies that I could use? Im using Wifi File Explorer Pro right now to transfer files but I would like the speed of USB if I could get it

you likely wont get the speed of usb on an "air" transfer app. do you have usb debug mode on? i use airdroid to transfer files

For Windows you can use drivers in my Sig fixed hardware I'd . For Mac find old drivers

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!
