I know there must be multiple posts on this, but after an hour, I'm striking out. I found a .ZIP for a GSII, but that did not work.
Any ideas?

SGS3 EASY UMS (look for it here [free version] or in the play store [donate version]) mounts your phone as Universal Mass Storage rather than MTP if you want that option.

Couldn't we just use the *#7284# to access the utility menu and change it that way?

Sorry new to this. But would this have any negative effects if I used the above app to change to usb mass to download music from my computer? Mtp is slow and media monkey scans the whole phone before it syncs. Could I just keep it set to usb or would something not work after that?

HELP! Turn off storage: Galaxy Amp
I don't know if this is the right thread to put this but anyway...
I have a Samsung Galaxy Amp, a much cheaper, much watered-down version of the Galaxy Series, and I have been trying to enable default installation of apps to the external sd card. However, adb devices won't recognize my device because (I think) MTP storage is on.
I Have USB debugging on and the the device works fine over USB. However there is no way to disable storage from the phone's settings. It will automatically enter MTP storage on connection and I can't unmount it from the PC.
To be clear I want to disable ALL storage on the phone, not enable mass storage
Much of the menu options, style, setup, etc are similar to the s3. Any help would be appreciated.
*Also MTP is my best guess of why adb devices won't detect it, if it's something else insight on that will be much appreciated as well, thanks.

Sounds more like a driver issue to me. Click on "Drivers" in my sig and download and install the latest drivers. Then go to device manager, find where it shows your device, right click it and Update Drivers.
If that doesnt work, you can also try the UniversalAdbDriverSetup6.msi. Though after installing this, you may have reinstall the Samsung drivers again later in order to use MTP/UMS or Odin.
Normal operation for me, I can connect using ADB and still have access to the phones storage at the same time.
Thanks!

Thanks! This worked great! The reason i thought it was MTP is because most articles make a point of telling you to turn off storage. Sorry if I posted in the wrong place and thanks again.
Sorry if this was answered before, I couldn't find an appropriate thread for that.
So I installed latest OrDroid 2.7.5, everything went smoothly and works fine for now.
But I have issues trying to connect the phone to my PC and access internal storage.
Once I connect the USB cable I get the usual "USB Connected - Tap to change settings". Once I press it I get the "Portable hotspot & tethering" instead of the window where I choose charge/USB only.
In My Computer it appears as Digital Camera "HTC One X", but not as Removable drive as it was before.
Any ideas how to access the storage again?
Thanks in advance
This is not specific for ordroid but
Check under
Settings
Storage
Usb computer connection ( in three dotmenu or context menu)
It should be mtp or mass storage.

Thanks, but that is also a problem. I cannot find the Usb computer connection settings anywhere under the Storage. There's no 3dotmenu or context menu available either.
Found the answer to my question in one of the ROMs thread. Can be closed.
Care to repeat it here?
sure but it didn't really solve the problem, just helped me understood what's the reason for that

scroll down for post from user jackolus and see the next reply.
will have to try on my other PC with Win7 to see if it works.
Another option - go to Recovery and connect your phone to PC. This way it appears in My Computer as HTC Storage. Not the most convenient method, but still better than nothing.
any one know of any fix for this yet? i'm on mac and cannot mount sd card other than going into recovery. pain in the ass, every time i plug it in to my dock htc sync link pops up, tried installing it it but it's ****e, still doesnt allow direct access to sd.
If its not installed it pops up as a link, if it is installed it pops up the app. pain if i only want charge.
Really annoys me when they remove common used features.
Someone at HTC must have sat and had a thought, yes they have 32gb non removable sd card but it's highly unlikely they ever want access to it, lets take the option away.
There's no 'fix' as HTC has changed the storage from USB MS for MTP - unless they change it back there's not a lot you can do
EDIT: This might help...

Thanks, may have to revert to ics then, this is a big flaw for me, do a lot of transferring files to and from sd, cant be ****ed with entering recovery everytime.
Out of curuosity, would it be the same on AOSP jelly bean roms?
Guess i could try BT transfers

Hi people, this is my first post here!
First, if I commit a mistake writing this, is because mi english is not very good XD
I have the ace 2 for about two weeks with hafidzduddin HD kernel on it :B
Ok, the problem is the bloody mtp, I want the classic android usb storage app, but I only find solutions for specific phones, like the SGSII or galaxy note, and, if I have a option on my phone I can't see it :silly:
if helps I have the last stock ROM from Samsung (XXLI2) and obviously rooted e.e
I want the classic usb storage because I cant move files through directories, and a lot of directories appear to be empty when I see my phone storage on my computer, for only one file, adb is good, but when i have a lot of files...
Thanks!
No way? any idea? :crying:
Hello,
If you look under wireless and network settings, and choose the usb utilities option, you should see the option for 'classic' mass storage there.

Hello,
Today I was trying to copy some files to my Xperia S via USB from my WinXP PC. When trying to copy the files, I got the message "the device has either stopped responding or has been disconnected" with the option to skip or cancel. This happened several times, and I plugged and unplugged the cable between tries.
After giving it up, I went to the phone and found out that all my files were gone. The folders disappeared and I can't find any pictures or media files (as well as any of the files that existed before - and I have show hidden files enabled in Android File Manager app). In Settings > Storage > Internal it says that I have 25 GB free (when I should have only 2 or 3 GBs left). The current folder structure viewable in the app is probably the folders for apps that after restart, recreated the folders.
However, if I connect to PC again, I can see the old folder structure in Internal Storage and the listing of the files inside it (the photos, etc). If I try to copy inside the SDCARD or to the PC I get the same message "the device has either stopped responding or has been disconnected" and I can't open any kind of file.
I think the data is still in the SD Card, but not accessible anymore. Has anyone experienced this before and can help me?
Thanks,
andré

I too have this problem with my Game ROMs folder with my SNES and Genesis games. I'll run the emulator and then when I go to find a game the folder has disappeared. I have them saved on my PC so I just copy it over but an actual solution would be nice. My phone is rooted and ROMed.
Oh and I tried Titanium Backups but they sometimes disappear as well. I've never had that app work for me anyways always freezes and the backup is never restored.
It seems to me large folders and files not involved in the phones dedicated folder structure seem to disappear.
The best thing for you to do would be to root your phone and try the SD card mounting app which mounts the SD card in mass storage mode. MTP mode always gives such problem so and is unreliable..

Are you just trying to transfer files cuz you don't need adb to transfer. Just mount your SD card, drag and drop.
Now if you are trying to push system files, then ok. To start, what Rom are you running? Also, you can do what I said above then use a root browser from the play store to move the files within.

the latest cm7 gb nitely and i updated my radio to 2.15.00.12.19 with
mason-Gd15r c4-sbc kernel i want abd so that when i download a new rom i can move it from the computer to the phone instead of downloading it str8t to the phone can you help me
First. it's ADB, not ABD.
Second, it's definitely that the phone's not going into Debug mode?? You have the path for ADB Set in your command line, the server starts, stops, etc?
Also, why can't you just connect the phone to your computer with the USB Cable, toggle USB Connect and have at it?
