Hi there guys
I've just Rooted my HTC WILDFIRE (buzz) to the Cyanogenmod 9. I really enjoyed the speed and new functions I have on my phone now.
However, when I try to insert my USB cable into the USB port of my destkop, I can't see my phone storage. I tried to 'reinstall' CM 9 but it still doesn't work. I've tried it on different USB ports and computers, but my phone isn't recognized anywhere.
My SD card is not 'dead' or anything, cause I am still able to install apps from the store on it.
Anybody who can help me out here ?
EDIT: I managed to get on my storage again via recovery, but do I have to do this each time if I want to remove or add something on my phone/sd card via USB ?

More probably a problem of drivers.
Quick solution : Disable USB debugging on your device before connecting in USB Mass Storage Mode.
Permanent solution : Uninstall and re-install USB drivers

Hi guys, I am having a problem with my HTC WFS a510c, I am trying to follow this guide here (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1399872) to s-off the phone, but I am unable to get the phone to connect in "disk drive" mode. I have the drivers installed, the computer recognizes the phone and shows the drive in explorer but does not show up in the gold card creator. Or when trying to open it from explorer it says "please insert a disk". The last time I connected through the usb cable this worked fine i was able to move pictures and music back and forth, but as soon as I went to try this it wont work. Any ideas or help would be appreciated. Thank you guys in advance.
Did you select mass storage in the menu that comes after connecting the usb??? And BTW you need to use a Card reader to create a goldcard.

I did pick that option on the phone when it asked, ive had it working in the past.
Thank you for the advice on Gold Card Creator, I was just confused in the guide it said to plug the phone in and pick mass storage mode. Will try using my card reader thank you again.
Thank you for the tip about using a card reader, I am now S-off and Rooted, thanks again.
The only problem I am having is my phone is still not functioning as a USB storage device
could be a hardware problem on the phone......try another usb cable.....it might be that your usb cable is malfunctioning

Ill give that a shot, and hopefully that will solve it. It's just been an odd problem because the computer recognizes the phone and installs drivers and everything just now joy with storage mode.
my storage mode stopped working after i installed link2sd and made an ext2 partition. wifes still works with 2 FAT32 partitions using the same cable.
Mine stopped working before I did link2sd or data2sd, not sure what caused it, just ordered a new cable today and sd card, to see if that helps it.

Follow up on USB Host
I too am using an HTC One X running 4.1.1
I've got an OTG cable and have tried connecting a thumb drive and card reader. Both work. The drives are visible and accessible on the phone. That's USB storage which isn't the same as USB Host, but it shows that the port is active.
I can plug in the dongle for a wifi mouse, it too is recognised and I'm able to use the mouse to navigate around on the phone. This, as far as I understand, is actually USB Host in action.
The problem arises when I try to connect a DSLR and use a camera controller app like Helicon Remote or DSLR Dashboard. The app doesn't recognise that the camera is connected.
What's the difference between the wifi mouse and the camera?
Thoughts appreciated. Thanks.
In fact, there is a problem that any USB storage device on the phone creates the following folder structure:
/ storage / usb / Android / data / com.htc.album / .thumbnails /
Then create multiple copies, can be found in the internal memory, same-path, including folders that contain thumbnails, but empty.
So because of these being used constantly sticks, so when the capture traces of the settings, then any writes to the phone to choose from, but it can not happen, but the capture button will be disabled, but only while again not I step into the menu.
The above mentioned directories erased because the phone reboot always create them again.
If the phone was not rebooted since I've used it and the flash drive has been physically removed it, then if I connect again, it appears no file until you restart the phone.

Anybody have USB mass storage working? How about MTP? For the life of me can't find the answers. Tried the app on the play store 'SG USB MAS STORAGE ENABLER' but it only shows the sdcard as a CD drive and can't write to it.
Please help

Assuming that you are trying to connect to a computer,
USB Mass Storage does not work.
MTP Works, if you are not seeing your device after connecting to computer , then might need to install required drivers, or install samsung kies and that should install the drivers for you...
I have a SanDisk 64G XC micro SD card. Writes and reads no problem
Also USB (female) to micro OTB cable that allows me to use my 128 GB thumb drive, but not all of them.

Yes with my custom rom and kernel. I can connect any usb mass storage without a problem.
I think that OP asks about the option of connecting the device to PC in mass storage mode, i.e. just like normal pendrive, instead of the MTP/PTP protocols.
As far as i have found, it is possible only for the external storage, with help of dedicated app - there is a thread somewhere on xda, don't remember details, but hope it should be easy to find.
P.S. on Note 1 with Samsung stock ICS it was just a matter of running a startup script, don't know if it would work for Note 8

My device is rooted, I'm not as concerned with USB mass storage. I just want MTP to work. I tried uninstalling all drivers and installing KIES.
I tried uninstalling all USB devices and restarting windows 7 to install them back. I tried downloading the using the Note 8 tool kit to install them and NO success installing the MTP drivers. I tried a different computer and it works!
Any suggestions to getting it work on my computer???

Seems i missed a well. I'm afraid I can't help much with MTP problem, the only two suggestions that come to mind are: try on another PC to make sure it's not a device, secondly - on my Note MTP started to behave only after I installed the latest Samsung USB drivers (probably found somewhere on xda).

first uninstall kies and samsung driver ,reboot.
reinstall samsung driver it will try to update just cancel the update and it will install fine. do not install kies now plug in your usb to the pc and then to the phone.
if it detects good if not then the usb flex of the phone is the culprit take it to ss for a repair and be ready to make it all stock and status normal and yes despite the bad flex it does charge the phone gone through the same prob before
I used to have a galaxy s 2 it would not be detected on the pc..because while it was charging at one time it fell down the whole weight of the phone landed on the stub/pin of the charger...it continued to charged though... took it to Samsung repair store they just changed a small circuit board which had the charger and Mic...very simple and fast hardly 5 min...if all fails for you..try this option

Reboot your PC.
Hi,
i have a problem with mass storage on wildfire s 2012 (s-on, rooted ,cwm 5 recovery).
The problem is on 2 roms (only 2 that i flashed on wfs), but these situations are bit different:
1. For a some time, i was using owl project (i mean android 4.2.2) , and when i connect usb cable, i have an option to enable usb mass storage, but my computer doesn't see sd card.
2. Then i flashed Marvellous Sense 3.5 (7-10-13...the newest release anyway) (full wipe before of course), when i connect usb cable, the phone only charges, there is no popup or sth to select usb connection options.
Both problems, are not present at the first usb plugging, after flashing a rom, they appear after next ones.
Maybe this can be helpfull tip: mounting usb mass storage in recovery setting doesn't work too (when i want to copy anything to the phone, i need to reflash and boot a "fresh" rom).
I was searching the solution on ROM threads but, there is no mention of any usb problem.
I'm sure the usb cable is working properly, i've tried it to connet other phones and all is working properly.
I believe that someone will help me, I'm noob in Wildfire S, thanks in advance

Have you tried plugging the SD card on your PC via a card reader? There could be a problem with the phone's MicroUSB port. Also try using another cable if you have one.
