[Q] PC Connection - Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Recently I have found that when I connect my phone to my PC I get no option to mount. The PC is not recognizing that anything is attached and the phone is not giving me the option to mount the storage. Also, when I turn off the phone and plug it in it automatically turns on. Anyone ever experience this?

[Q] Usb Storage Mounting

Quick question,
I currently have the Epic, which requires a driver installed on the computer before the SD card will mount properly on a windows PC.
I use my phone to upload things for work now and then, and this is a major hassle for me.
I'm thinking of moving to the Galaxy S2 when it comes out in the US, and I was wondering if the S2 mounts properly without a driver?
It's sad to be jealous of friends with HTC phones that mount properly and don't need drivers installed to simply connect to a pc.
If you set it to 'usb debug mode', it auto installs and will come up as 2 card readers.
It even works on my car's head unit so it is in usb mass storage mode.
Without debug mode it'll be detected as a phone but I'm not sure what it'll come up as since all the pc ive connected it to have samsung Kies.
Personally I use widget apps like 'multi mount sd' so I can still use the phone while the usb is accessible by the pc.

Problem-connecting phone to computer

Hi all.
Problem is I cant get the phone to connect to any computer (It did work before untill recently) It charges fine with the wall charger using the same USB but wont charge or recognize the phone when I plug it into a PC or MAC. So at the moment I cant access the internal mass storage and also write to it.
Tried USB Debugging but that doesn't do anything either. I'm really lost and would appreciate any help. It's still under warranty so I could return it if it turns out to be faulty.
Motorola RAZR XT910 / Droid
sometimes the system does not pick up internal storage for like 30 secs. try waiting. Also try inserting the sdcard into the slot and see wheter you can acess that.
alternatively try Multi Mount SD-Card Lite app in the market. maybe it will help

[Q] Maybe a dump question

How do i safely remove the phone from pc when connect through usb cable?
MTP mode has no eject button. Just unplug it when your phone stops showing the "Syncing" screen and you're good to go.
If you use an app/script to put it in mass storage mode then you'll need to eject it exactly as you do with USB sticks.

Can't access phone's storage through USB - using TheCollective AoCP

Hi,
I can't access my computer's memory or the MicroSD card when I hook up the phone to my PC.
The phone recognizes the USB connection because it goes into Debug mode but there's nothing in the notifications bar to allow me to switch the phone into storage mode.
When I first hooked up the phone to the PC, Windows 7 tried to install a driver but failed. I think that might the issue. What driver do I have to install on the PC side to get this to work?
Or maybe its just a setting on the phone side I need to configure?
Help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

[Q] Need help: Computer no longer recognizes phone after installing Cyanogenmod 12.1

Today I installed Cyanogenmod for the first time. The install seems to work as my phone is working perfectly. I connected my phone up to my computer to put the GApps file onto it to install them (and also to put on my app backups), but something weird happened. I plugged my phone in and it was charging and my computer recognized that a device was plugged in, but I had no way to access the device. It was in MTP mode with USB debugging turned on. I tried to used ADB but when I used the "adb devices" command it said that no devices were plugged in. I have no way of getting anything onto my phone. I also realize that I messed up really badly by moving my backups off of my phone and onto my computer. What do I do?
EDIT: I managed to install the google apps by doing it directly from the phone, but I still cannot push the backup files from my computer to my phone.
I'm not sure how to solve your PC->Phone connection but you could get a MicroSD USB adapter, copy/move what you need to a MicroSD card, then put the card into the phone.
