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.
Is there any way how to connect I9195 as a USB mass storage device to the computer, not only as "media device" or "camera"?
You could try SG USB Mass Storage Enabler from Google Play.
It works properly in my GT-I9195.
It needs rooted phone
I don't think there is any other way except to root it.

Did you roll back all old drivers, remove them in registry.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1882942
Also, if you get the MTP error after this, go to device manger "type it in start"
Go to View
Select Hidden Driver
Go To Non_Plug and Play Drivers
Right Click on Hardware Policy Driver
Go To Driver Tab,
Stop this device
and Disable it
Restart Windows ( unplug phone first, disable network card also)
Disable WiFi or network card, (double tap)
Plug in Phone
Allow windows to load the drivers on your phone.
(don't stop this at all)
Look for phone.
Later you can add updated drivers if you would like. Remember windows keeps all old drivers, even if its jacked up. PnP will still run.
This works on Vista and above. haven't tested it on XP.
IMPORTANT
U must re-enable the change to the device manager after this, or each time you reboot it will reload the drivers.
Also if you want to search for old pics (assuming they were on your external card if you had one)
Use Recurva. To do this you will need a mini USB to card reader. They make them as UBS and camera card style. Then mount and recover. If not you got to rip open your phone, take out the HD, and using the correct connector, (use by) get a drive enclosure. It will mount the HD as a external flash drive. But only do this if you don't want the phone anymore.
later and I hope it helps
The file system is whack!
Why?
Try this very simple test.
Create a new folder and create some files to put in there.
Use a USB cable and plug it into your laptop.
Open your phone.
Where is your new folder and files?
But wait, if you open up ES File Explorer on the phone, everything is there?
Okay, reboot your phone.
Then, plug it into your laptop again.
Okay, now everything is there.
It's like you have to reboot your Nexus device in order to allow your laptop to see a refresh of the storage memory.
This is why removable memory is the way to go.
I just use Filezilla and ftpserver from the play store. Easy and fast. I'll never plug my phone into the computer again to transfer files.
use a good file explorer that does refresh the storage index...try solid explorer..problem solved
every change made by solid explorer to the file system is notified to the android media store index, try to repeat your steps with solid explorer
(that happens to every new phone out there that use MTP over mass storage file transfer, about 90% of new smartphone, even phone with removable storage use MTP today )
Wires are much too cumbersome. I use ES file manager to move files to/from my tablets/PC/dropbox/Box.com. Copy and paste between any and all of those easier than using a full desktop PC. No need to search for a wire. Or even be in the same room as your PC. Problem solved.

But, the nice thing about removable storage is that it's easy to pop out the memory card and put it into your laptop. I only wish that laptop makers would put a micro SD card slot into laptops so I don't have to keep my adapter in there.
Plus, it copies way faster that way, in my experience. Also, Windows Explorer treats it like storage device, instead of some weird "thing" with the MTP method, ie, Teracopy never works with MTP.
i use root explorer and never had that issue. i created folder thru root explorer and i plugged into my laptop and i was able to view folder. but i got to say when i first got my gnex i was scared because of not having a removable sd card. but when i did have my droid X my sd card did fail, but luckily i backed everything up to my laptop before it actually failed.

This is not a Galaxy 'Nexus' problem, it's an Android thing, its MTP.
Any app that can trigger a media scan should cure that without having to reboot.
I've been using filezilla on my pc to push files to my phone for awhile though and it is much more convenient. USB transfer is slow and those cords always break on me >.<
That's no reason to ditch the galaxy nexus though. Maybe the terrible screen, poor placement of headphone jack, and battery life though... Lol

So, I think it's just a problem linked to your Gnex. When I plug mine, I always see it on my pc like a removal memory.. And this should happen if you are rooted or not, it doesn't depend on it.
Inviato dal mio Galaxy Nexus utilizzando Tapatalk
18 months of updates doesn't warrant buying a nexus anymore, I just buy a better hardware non nexus phone an install the latest google stock on it using a custom rom.
Uninstall mtp drivers from drivers management and install it again
Remove all drivers related to gnex and install again
Just download latest USB drivers zip

Any clues, any one?
That´s a bit tricky. It depends what you are going to do and on what S3 Rom you are at the moment.
For KitKat Rom there are 2 USB Modi for the S3.
USB Storage : Direct connection to the SD card. Windows needs no driver.
MTP : Connection to internal S3 RAM and SD card. Windows needs driver. Look in optional drivers in Windows update for AyunOS driver.
This 2 modi can be chosed, when you connect the S3 viy USB wire.
For Lollipop ROM the USB Storage mode isn´t working right now.
For MTP you should find a driver in Windows update too, but i don´t use Win10.
Last but not least driver for SP Flashtool. SPF needs a special driver (VCOM-Driver). More tricky to install, but you can find information
and how-to on google and youtube.

Thanks for replying! I have the stock OS, KitKat, so it seems like I should be able to connect - I think there must be a problem with my laptop in that case, I will have a look in device manager and event viewer and see if I can figure out what's happening.
Out of interest, what is the status of Lollipop on the S3?
Thanks!

Do you hear the windows sound when connecting the S3? If not try a different USB port on the laptop.
There are 3 official Lollipop ROM right now. All 3 are good, with minor bugs. LL5.1 NewUI is for the chinese,
so a lot of chinese crap with it. I´m on Xtreme from TF right now for 3 days and pretty happy with it.
For more information read the last 20 pages of the monster thread above.
Ok, yes, I get the sound. Trying a different port does yield a slightly different result - if I connect in USB storage mode I see a new drive in Windows Explorer ("Removable Disk (E"), but if I try to open it Windows tells me to insert a disk. In MTP mode I see 'S3' in Explorer, and if I open that I see the phone memory and the SD card. This seems mostly ok, although it can get really slow.

Ok, MTP is working good. If it´s slow, then your SD is slow.
For USB Storage : What file system do you have on the SD?

Jap, either you use an external partition manager or from windows "disk management".
Also you can left click the drive, right click -> properties -> also shows the type of partition.
If you don´t see a partition type under windows, chances are its a linux/android one.
Check it with Linux or download the app "aparted" from playstore, so you can check it
with the smartphone.

Accelerometer is a sensor that defines a devices's position, so it gives you ability to use such functions as screen auto-rotation. And the bug is that sometimes this sensor stops working until the next reboot.
1-After format the SD with cm13, then how to back to normal SD?
2-Is right that if we use sd like part of system we can't use real system memory?
3-After formatting SD (with cm13) for using it like part of system, if we try to put it in PC and then back in the phone, it's real that the SD automatically delete all file inside it because was encrypted?
4-Can we store file like music, photo, video... on SD or it's only for app?
5-If for example i break my phone and put SD in an other phone what happen?
I know that are a lot of question but i hope someone can answer

1. Settings > Storage & USB > sdcard > menu > Format as portable
2. No, sdcard space magically adds to real internal
3. Of course no.
4. From phone: yes, photos goes there
From PC: unknown, because MTP broken now. But probably yes.
5. Data will be unaccessable because partition encrypted.
And formatted in unusual way - Windows anyway can't deal with it.
Card supposed to work only with ROM where was adopted (key stored)
UPD: it somehow works in other phone
You can format back it into FAT32 via Explorer or some partition manager.
Also seems this feature still semi-broken: large games won't install.
Maybe PecanCM can fix it.

There are often problems with Android on Windows that are absent on Linux. I had irritating issues with UMS mode in TWRP when I was using Windows (more strange is that it worked earlier and then suddenly my PC went insane when connecting USB in TWRP with storage mode enabled), but on Linux it works like a charm. And it is not the only example of problems in Android-Windows "relationship".
Guys I flashed the rom and it booted as usual and i went to next page of the setup guide i.e. add wifi in that i tried connecting to my wifi but while entering the password it shows unfortunately, aosp keyboard has stopped after i removed my wifi password and connected then it goes again to the first page of selecting country and i repeatedly pressed the yellow icon to proceed to the next page but its stucked on that page plz help me guys and do i need to do anything else?

Oh, there are a bunch! Wondering how it'll fare with the Android File Transfer on Mac. �� At least, ADB works, right? I need to update a few of my apps to support Marshmallow since they removed the Apache HTTP client (Google, must you really make things difficult? I spent an hour yesterday writing 75 lines of code just to add dividers between RecyclerView items... SMH). I'll most probably be shifting back to Lollipop AOSP by tonight. Anyway, if MTP works, I'll update you guys...
EDIT: So, no. Unfortunately, doesn't work on OS X as well. I didn't really expect it to, but then I was hoping that since it was UNIX, it would.
EDIT 2: So, it works with OS X as well! I hadn't selected the USB to transfer files previously.
