vibrant, unrooted (trying to root using the method in sticky with update.zip). I follow the instructions to enable mass storage device, then plug into usb/laptop. i see that it recognizes 2 new drives, but both cannot be accessed (insert a disc in removable drive K).
does anyone know how to fix this?
Try this...
From the home screen hit the menu>settings>applications>usb settings...
Make sure you have the "mass storage" or "ask on connection" radio button checked.
also make sure you have usb debugging turned on
......AND, it never hurts to just reinstall your Samsung USB drivers...what youre experiencing happens to me every once in a while, and i just reinstall the drivers and everything is good
i have the usb drivers installed on my comp-same issue.
i could not have debugging and mass storage on at teh same time. it always asked me to turn the other off when i wanted to do the other.
of course this was all on stock.

i realize you have the drivers.....but just reinstall them. just run the .exe and it will say something like "these drivers are already installed. would you like to proceed?" then just say yes
its fixed this exact issue with me several times...just try it out, it cant hurt
Thanks!
Thanks guys, I tried those already. I'm thinking it's the drivers which I just tried to load but my computer cannot locate them. Any links or suggestions?

I don't mean to sound like an idiot but I'm really feeling like one right now. When I follow your link to the drivers I end up having to install Driver Genius or Driver Boost and of course they tell me I've got multiple driver issues and want me to register and pay.

HAHA i know there are a lot of confusing links. its setup like that on purpose for advertising, its supposed to screw you up
see where it says "click here to download drivers"? click on the button directly below that
then on the next page, under where it says "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" click on "Softpedia Secure Download (US) [EXE]" ---> thats your download link
for some reason the cards are locked for me. i did find a way to open them but it really is a hassle: after the mass storage click, plugging it into laptop, i open voice dialer and say "open sd card" and click ok. then i click "enable mass usb storage device" on the top of the next screen and then my computer gains access to it.
WEIRD! but works. if anyone knows how to fix without using voice dialer, please let me know.
you have to enable USB debugging before you plug in your USB cord.
lol are you running custom kernel like test 14 ? due to bug? i dunno , u wont find anty storage .

ok, i just rooted, havn't flashed a rom yet, and i can't cause when i plug my phone up to my computer, it won't bring up the "mount" option. I went into my phone settings and turned on usb debugging, then it would bring up the mount option, but wouldn't show up on my computer. help please?
Are you using the cable that came with the phone?
Have you tried another USB outlet?
Have you updated the drivers?
Root would not affect this, at all.
From the home screen:
Menu>Settings>Applications>USB settings> now select "ask on connection"
Let me know if that helps
Also make sure the phone's drive letter that the system assigns isn't being hung up by another drive. You can check this by right-clicking the My Computer icon in Windows -> Manage -> Disk Management and make sure it's there. If it is, click on the drive and then right-click -> Change Drive Letter & Paths.
Hope this helps,

If you use adb or any rooted apps that requires it. For example, titanium backup requires you to have USB debugging on from what i remember. Oh, and if you're a developer.

On this one i think i installed all them the issue here is that when i plug my phone it let me know that new hardware has been found then it starts with the installation some will install but i think there is one or two the just sit searching but nothing happens and then i try to closed out but it freezes up on me and when i turn off debugging then it closes out but if i try to install them with debugging off nothing comes up.
another thing i used my phone with acomputer runnig windows 7 and it worked so im guessing its a prblem with xp
I think pdanet has the drivers when you install it if you don't know how to manually add them.

I don't know if this will work for you, but it worked for me...
When you plug your phone in via a usb cable, you will see a Verizon Mobile drive pop up on under "My Computer"
If you open it, there is a folder in there called DRV. There is a file called something like WM_driver installer. I installed that.
Then I go to my phone chose to connect as a disk drive (I have mine set to charge only by default).
Then I click on my removable disk and I can see my phone's data then.

ill try it tonight lets see if it work
my lappie which is a
Windows Vista 32 bit
it is not detecting the APX mentioned in the thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=861950
Now I am fixed in a reboot loop and I have tried everything suggested in this thread
OK I know I had no business doing this because I dont know the D of developing....
but the TNT Lite worked so well and was so easy to install I got carried away by it and tried to install the amd to let my computer detect the gtab. this is where I got stuck!!
to start from the beginning
I installed TNT lite on my GTab and it worked really well, I could see Youtube videos and access the Android market
Then I thought I should maybe transfer a few files to the Gtab so I could view them, but when I tried to do that I found out it was another long process, Normally being a non developer I would have probably just tried to find out a non hacking method to do this like download it from gmail or something. Or just use an SD card
But it had been so easy to install the alternate ROM from instructions in this forum I thought maybe it wouldnt be a big issue..sad!!
It was!
Now my one day old GTab wont start up and if it does it just keeps displaying a weird kind of screen with squares on it which I am assuming is the reboot screen
And so I tried to use Nvflash to restore it like mentioned in the thread above but my lappie wont detect it at all..
So now I really need help before I attempt anything else on my own
I dont want to send my Tablet back and would appreciate any help from experienced developers like you guys...!
Please do help me and I promise never to attempt something like this again..!!
Thanks
please !!!! anyone!!!!!
First, I think you need to breathe. Patience is a virtue. *NOTHING* about being excited will help. So calm down first, then go.
Did you install the drivers listed on that page?
Here's a direct link:
http://www.myadventvega.co.uk/SystemUSB.zip
Getting them to install can be a bit tricky, though, since it's not an executable. Download it, unzip it, go into the Flash USB folder, go into the USB folder, right click on the nvidiausb.inf file, and select install. That *should* install the driver. However, it might not. If it doesn't, post back and say what happened.
And as far as transferring files - there's no need to hack to do that. Just connect via USB, pull down the USB attachment notification on your tablet, and say connect. Then drag and drop on the computer. Done.

Thanks, I think I did forget to breathe..
It says " the inf file you selected does not support this method of install"
Alright. Crap. I forgot that happened to me too when I had to do it.
I think I had to install it via using Device Manager. Here's how you can get to it in Vista (I'm about to sleep, so I'm saving typing time):
http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/Open-Device-Manager
Once you've got that open, go ahead and boot the tablet into APX mode, meaning that from a powered-off state, you'll hold down the power and volume - buttons simultaneously until your G-Tab comes up and the goes back to a black screen (words stolen from the original NVflash post).
Connect it to your computer (while Device Manager is opened). When you connect it, you should see a new device appear that is labeled Unknown Device. Right click on it, and select Properties. Click the Driver tab (may be different - I'm on 7, but I think it's the same). Click the Update Driver button. Choose the "browse my computer for driver software." Using the browse function, point it to the folder with the inf in it (%wherever_you_extracted_it%\System USB\Flash USB\USB). Click Next.
I think that's what I had to do on mine when I borked my tablet with an experimental build of Vegan Ginger. If the driver installs, that should allow you to then go on with the rest of the directions. If it doesn't, post more information. I can't promise I'll be on any time soon, but maybe someone else can help out if they're up.
ok it says at the end when I have pointed it at the driver file (NVidiaUsb.inf)
"The folder you specified doesnt contain a compatible software driver for your device. If the folder contains a driver make sure that it is designed to work with windows for 32 bit systems."
This is what happened last time also, and then the system says that I already have the most compatible driver for the system and puts me on "Microsoft WPD filesystem volume driver"
EDIT: I should mention that I also had a tough time deleting my NVidia driver, but as soon as it was deleted, it was automatically replaced by the "Microsoft WPD filesystem volume driver"
Not sure what to tell you. The INF clearly points to the x86 version, so it should install. Is there more than one unknown device in your device manager? If so, you might somehow have the wrong one, though the approach earlier should have made it easier to track the new one.
Sorry. You might want to try getting on IRC to see if other people have some bright ideas. An NVFlash does seem like what you need to do, though.
EDIT: I did some digging into the forums (you should probably continue that). Here's a thread all about these drivers.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1012009&highlight=NVFlash+USB+Driver+Solution
If those fail, there's another method that involves installing the entire SDK, which is linked on this thread (the second post about the MSI):
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=882814
However, my impression is that that option might create more complexity than it's worth.
I haven't done anything but what I explained earlier (if I remember right - it's been a while), so I can't talk about any other approach. However, these will at least maybe make my failure into less of a dead end.
I ran into the exact same problem a few weeks ago after installing CM7...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=902860&highlight=usbdeview
I used a program called USBDEVIEW and just obliterated all the usb drivers (I guess the safe way is to remove any mention of Nvidia usb devices) and rebooted the computer. Let the system reinstall all the USB devices. Restarted the computer again. AND ONLY THEN did I plug in the gTablet. Once plugged in, the system automatically installed drivers and recognized the tablet, you may have to point to the inf file if it fails to install automatically.

Don't let this setback keep you from using great ROMS like VEGAn Tab Gingerbread RC1... once you've mastered the NVFlash process and CWM recovery install (I prefer the external CWM install) you are all set for other mishaps.

I tried to uninstall the nvidia drivers using USB deview, it asked me if I wanted to uninstall drivers I said yes but I can still see the drivers in the USB list
Is that ok?
You need to run USBDeview as an administrator. Right click on "USBDeview.exe" select "run as administrator" and then when you are asked to confirm, click "yes"
Only then when you "uninstall selected device" the device will disappear. Otherwise you are only in view mode.

OK I just figured that out and was coming to post that. Thanks for realising that is what I was doing..
I conneccted the tablet to my PC.but it still does not detect it
The only time my PC detected it was the first time when I pointed it to the nvflash folder. After that it has never detected it and I havent seen the yellow ! icon.
what am I doing wrong?
Firstly, powerdown the gTab.
Turn on power while holding "vol -" to enter into APX mode (you'll see the viewsonic birds then the screen will go blank)
On the bottom right corner of the Vista screen, click on the USB icon that says "safely remove hardware and eject media"
Look at the list the pops up, does one of the devices say APX?
no It only says safely remove mass storage device
oh wait
my tablet switched on to the reboot screen and didnt stay black
trying it again
it installed "NVIDIA boot recovery driver for mobile devices", is that correct?
This is where I get stuck, my device manager doesnt show the apx at all whatever I do, what am I doing wrong?
I think there was a way to overlook safety signatures somewhere but I couldnt get to do it,
Is there some way I can ask my computer to overlook the safety signatures?
EXCELLENT!!! Now you are ready for NVFlash instructions:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=861950
BTW, you will not be able to see the device under windows explorer as in the normal way such as "D:" "E:" etc drive.
Once you get everything setup per the above instructions and run "nvflash_gtablet.bat" you will see the flashing process in the text box.
Just want to make sure...
Under Vista Device Manager
-- "universal serial bus controllers" you have "NVIDIA USB Boot-recovery driver for Mobile devices"

Yes I do, so I should start the process now?
THANKS a lot, will update you as it goes on.
Yes, follow Roebeet's instructions and you should be set. Also play it safe and keep your gTab plugged in unless you are sure of the amount of battery life left.
OK, I screwed the pooch on this one and if I'm correct, I'll have to undo everything and start over. I used DeanGibson's directions for rooting to 1.4.1. I could never get sideloading to work, so in a moment of dumb, I uninstalled NThiddensettings so I could reinstall a newer version. When I did that, I guess I lost USB debugging and enabled automount. So now, all Windows will do is add Nook Tablet as a device. If I'm correct, since I can't sideload, the only thing I can do to get it back USB debugging is undo everything and start over. Of course, I could wait until NThiddensettings is on Android Market, but that will probably never happen.
I feel for ya Tel.
I may find myself in your shoes before all is said & done.

I'm was blocked from sideloading anything since I couldn't enable USB debugging. I have just fixed it though. I looked in my Apps and saw an app titled AppMenu. That let me get to my development settings and turn off auto mount and enable usb debugging. I still can't get NThiddensettings to let me install from unknown sources like it should, but at least I can sideload now.
I'm glad you got it working, although downloading from a link on a web page does not require side loading, as does downloading from another local computer using a usb connection.

Oh, I can download all I want, but without being able to enable usb debugging and disabling automount, I couldn't install anything. In fact, I'm still being blocked from installing any apps directly, they have to be installed via adb or Sideload Wonder Machine. I can live without that now that I've gotten usb debugging enabled again.
I guess I'm missing something. Which program enables the ability to install an apk file? I thought an apk file was self installing.

I have spent all morning searching and reinstalling drivers and trying my old pc and new cables and i found out that my old windows 7 computer with 4GB of ram and an overloaded hard drive will detect my device the problem there is it not my main computer and i dont want to have to connect all the vga cables boot it up connect mouse and ect to use this computer just to be able to copy files, and do other things from my computer to my phone I dont know why my main computer dell inspiron windows 8 will not work when it was a couple of days ago when i had a problem with conectivity and had to flash back to stock but now it wont connect. could someone help me? Here's a list of things i've tried
installing kies
installing adb again
aoi tool and then drivers
a bunch of diffrent drivers found on the fourms
diffrent usb cable
i would like to be able to do it on my main computer but its not working if someone could help that would be great
also please dont hate on me for having windows 8 jk i dont care :good:
I'd have to say that your drivers are all scrambled. Look up "android SDK" here on xda and install that for a bigger variety of drivers. Or just download Google's USB driver and manually install it through device manager which always works for me. Windows 8 is new and very complicated.

Android SDK is installed in the main drive right? local disk c?
You have to click the folder (usb_driver) and then click update.
In the android sdk folder there should be and exe file called SDK manager. There you will be able to download all the drivers for your current android version also the latest Google drivers and SDK tools etc.
I was stuck on this process for a long time because it allways works different for everybody. Just keep me posted on what you do I'm more than glad to help.

So what exactly happens when you click update? What does it say?
Is your PC up to date? (update wise)
Do you have the the drivers for the phone itself like samsung drivers?
And did you try rebooting your PC after installing your drivers? <-- that is important. You should always reboot after install or uninstalling drivers otherwise you'll end up scrambling them.
From the pictures it shows you have the drivers but I'd also try going deeper than usb_driver, try clicking on i386 or amd64.

OK make sure there are no HTC drivers on your PC. When you hook up your phone does USB storage work or anything like that?
Check those out and then I want you to go to Google, download pdanet latest version via pc (dont install yet) and go to the play store and install on your phone turn on USB debugging and the install non market apps and hook your phone up to the computer. Then install pdanet via PC and see if that works. HTC drivers get in the way of Samsung's BTW.

I want you to uninstall all your Samsung drivers(not android SDK) under control panel/uninstall programs. If you see something like Samsung kies definitely uninstall it. Reboot your computer and follow this guide for windows 8:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2038555
After this if it doesn't work I'd recommend pulling out your old computer for android modding lol. I'll still look up some threads for your problem. Let me know what's going on after that. Make sure when you follow that guide your phone can not be plugged in the computer. And when you plug your phone into the computer after everything is done and after you reboot your computer for the second time, USB debugging has to be off and when phone is done unplug and turn back on USB debugging and plug back in and wait for that. Adb should work.
[Edit] you can also try running your drivers in windows 7 compatibility. Sorry I couldn't help much.

I think I know what the problem is. Make sure you uninstall all the previous drivers, then have the correct drivers ready.
What you have to do is to disable driver signature enforcement.
Step 1. Go to the right bottom corner of the desktop and wait for the side menu to appear. When it's there click on the gear icon with the title "Settings".
Step 2. Now click on the entry "More PC Settings", then click on the entry "General".
Step 3"Restart now" (under "Advanced start up ") and click it.
Step 4. Now click "Troubleshoot", then "Advanced Options" and after that click "Windows Start up Settings".
Step 5. Click on "Restart" and wait, then on the next screen press F7.
You will now reboot, and try now to install the drivers (by manually selecting the folder in device manager).
I'm not sure what is the correct drivers for you.
But try this. It's still worth a shot.
