Wondering how to transfer pc files to phone's external memory card since when connected by usb to the laptop-the ;aptop only detects the phone and it's contents.I'm under the assumption-the ext.sd card should show as a removable storage device.What works?

your phone memory IS your internal memory (in case that is not clear).
You can enable your internal memory by going to settings/applications/development and checking USB Debugging.
hope that helps.
thanks a lot!
I check the usb debug mode,but my win7 report that can't find adb drivers!
where can i find the adb driver?
Dont enable usb debugging. Drag down the bar at top and go from charge only to usb storage mode.. windows should auto detect it as a usb drive and it will show your sd card as a usb drive...copy files over that way.

But in this mode,my win7 can only find the tf card disk. I can not read/write/format the internal storage. win xp can find 2 htc disk,but also only can net do anything to the internal storage disk!
what can i do?
Then you have something pretty tangled. I plug my standard DInc into my Win7 machine, and choose "Disk drive" mode and I see two disks mounted, one for the phone RAM and one for the SD card.
Likewise....
you can also use something like Astro and move files from the SDcard to the emmc (internal memory folder)
Sorry for such a newbie question but I can't find an answer in any forums. I used to be able to get access to both my external and internal sd card when i plugged into my windows 7 laptop. it would show as a new device SPD something. When i clicked on that icon in windows explorer it would break out two different drives the External and Internal. After flashing starburst rom and plugging in the device, it just shows an (F) Drive which is my standard storage. My phone then asks me for USB mass storage permission and it goes into mass storage mode. Clicking on F will bring me to my external SD card but I can't figure out how to access data on the built in memory chip. Any help would be appreciated!
If you got to Settings>Applications>Development and check allow usb debugging it should detect both cards as removable drives that you can access.
Please, can I active mass storage for only Sd Card?
If I connect usb cable and set mass storage, phone create 2 discs (first 100MB internal memory and after SD-Card). If I connect phone to my dvd player, player mount only first create disc. So I always mount only internal memory, I can not mount SD Card.
when i connect the phone to pc via usb it opens the sd card folder normally. after a while the folders dissappear and when i go to my computer it shows no usb device. the sd card unmounts on itself after a while which prevents me from copying anything of more than maybe 25mb to the sd card.
I have same problem. The only workaround is to put your sd card into a card reader adapter to put into your usb plug.

usb problem,srsly try a diff one
I’m trying out my new Sony Xperia Z1C.
And there are some things I have questions about
Before I had a HTC One and I could connect it by cable to my audio equipment in my car (BMW 3 F series). This worked because the BMW can read MTP devices.
Connecting the Sony the first time it took ages before it was ready and then only the contents of the internal memory were shown.
When starting mirrorlink on the phone made it unusable in the car.
With a task manager I could remove the mirrorlink background task, is there no other way to stop that background task?
But the problem remained, it could connect but nothing of the SD card was shown.
So I switched to Mass storage and tried to connect again.
This was a lot faster but only four directories were shown.
I copied files on the sd card directly from my pc and not through the phone connection,
so I reformatted the card
and copied files to it through the phone connected to the pc. Copying then failed on .m3u files (why , the phone cannot do anything with them so why not copying?),
so I skipped all those files and
mounted the sd card once more as mass storage,
and now the car audio can see all of the directories. Now I know how to copy mp3 files but it is still a strange way of working, copying to the SD card directly works so much faster.
Mounting the SD card as MTP has almost the same result as before, it reads the card a lot faster now but it still does not show content of the sd.
Can anybody explain me what the correct way of working is,
is MTP only for internal memory (when connecting to the pc on MTP I can see both sdcard0 (internal memory) as sdcard1 (sd card )?
What about killing background tasks such as mirrorlink, how to proceed?
What about copying files to the SDCard, from the pc to the card or from the pc through the phone and then to the card?
Are not all filetypes supported on the card?, I think my initial problem was related to the M3U files.
no time to get into details but i know 2 things
MTP mounts the phones internal memory plus the external sd card
mass storage mounts only the sd card like any other mass storage device
and yes, MTP is slower compared to the mass storage.
