I recently purchased the g tab and loaded clockwork mod and Vegan on it. Since then, it wont recognize thumb drives, external hard drives, or the micro sd. Also, when I plug it into the computer, it doesnt get recognized. To load anything, I have to go through the cw and mount external usb. Any help would be appreciated!!!

I promised that I have searched the forums, but I have not found a good answer, and any help I could get would be great.
I cannot mount my MicroSD card when I attach my g Tablet to my computer via USB. I can only see internal storage. Is there any way to get around this, or do I have to copy to internal storage and then copy to MicroSD? I am trying to load a large amount of media files, and I would like to speed the process up.
Also, as a side note, and speaking of MicroSD, with the Calkulin+Clemsyn combo, I cannot load Apps 2 SD. I am assuming this is expected, and there is no way to get around this? If there is a trick I would love it.
Thanks for your help in advance.
Same deal. I'm running Vegan 5.1.1, Clemsyn's kernel on Windows 7, 64-bit and when my Gtab is connected to my PC via USB cable the PC only sees the internal storage and not my 16 GB microSD card.
I tried to mount my galaxy s as a usb hdd yesturday but the g tablet didn't seem to recognize it.
So I guess this is a 2 part question;
1) what format would the sd card in my phone be I assume it's ext
2) does vegan gingerbread support it?

If an android device can read your sdcard then your all good. Unfortunately I don't think this is an available feature, yet at least. Gotta mount the card after u remove it from the phone. No USB support for mounting SD in other Droid devices. And most commonly microsds formatted as fat32.
darn. i was hoping that when i plug my phone in to the tablet, it would just recognize it as a normal usb flash drive. guess that isn't the case.
I have a 4gig thumbdrive I tote around with a persistent version of ubuntu and some other utilities, like ultimate boot cd. Since I always have my phone, I figured why not just use it instead of carrying the thumbdrive.
I have been trying to install the boot installer on my phone's sd card so I could just boot a PC with the phone. The trouble is that if I install the thumbdrive boot files on the external micro sd card there seems to be no way to boot a pc from that drive. If you goto disk drive mode and boot the PC, it only wants to boot to the first USB device, i.e. the internal SD card. I tried the multimount usb app, but that did not help in mounting just the external SD card.
I have installed the boot files on the internal SD card and successfully booted the PC with it, but once the phone is restarted it decides there is something wrong with the internal SD card and it reformats it.
Has anyone tried to use their phone as their PC boot thumbdrive?
I have tried the YUMI and the old fashion single boot on pendrivelinux.com. It matters not whether I select persistent mode.
Hi. I have an old i9100 and I am trying to update it. Its running the old 2.3.3. Im trying to odin it to stock 4.1.2. My laptop does not recognize the device. When I plug it into USB, it charges the device, but does not mount USB storage. I tried other USB ports and other cables. I even tried to other computers. Why does it only charge my device but not mount USB storage
secondly. I put the .zip file for 4.1.2. onto an SD card. I put the SD card in and booted into recovery. Recovery mode wont find my sd card. I went to external_sd and its empty. It shows nothing. However when I boot the phone normally and go into the OS and go into my files it shows the sd card perfectly fine and all its files.
Any idea how to solve these 2 problems????
Let me start by stating my goal. My goal is to reformat my 8gb micro sd card, so that I can use it back in my Raspberry Pi 3. I know this is an Android forum, and have spent many hours here back in the Galaxy S3/Note 2 days. There is a reason' I'm asking for help here instead of a Raspberry Pi forum, so just hear me out please.
Alright, so I got my 8gb card installed with a fresh image of RetroPie. Got it running just fine with no issues, started to install some emulators and the Raspberry Pi froze. While I was doing that, I was also getting my roms in order on my PC. So I figured why not just pull the SD card out (after unplugging the Pi) and transfer some roms to it. Sounds all groovey, except Windows no longer wanted to recognize the micro sd card that was in the adapter. Hmmm, maybe a restart would help? I restart the computer yet it still doesn't want to work. Odd, so I plug it back into the Pi. Except upon plugging the power back in, the Pi doesn't want to boot up anymore. Instead the red light lights up and the green light keeps flashing. So no I'm starting to really worry. Thinking it's POSSIBLE there is a driver issue on my laptop, I update any/all drivers via SDI (Snappy Driver Installer) and nope, you guessed it, didn't work. So alright, I'm thinking my sd card is corrupted. Until I randomly think about putting it into my old Galaxy Tab tablet. I push the SD card in and the tablet recognizes it right away. AWESOME!!! Now I'm getting somewhere right? Go to Settings > Storage and see that I can unmount and reformat the sd card. So because my goal is to reformat the card, I hit that. Couple seconds later it's done. 58mb available. I read that that's all it (Raspberry Pi) allocates for the boot files, so I don't stress. Thinking that since it's reformatted on the tablet, I can just pop it into my laptop and reformat it the right way and gain access to all the sd card now. Except, nope...Windows doesn't recognize it still. Ok, now I'm thinking my USB reader in my laptop is bad. So I try my 2gb card in the adapter and Windows recognizes it just fine! So now I'm stumped...
Windows won't recognize the SD card
Raspberry Pi won't recognize the SD card (as there's not boot files on it)
Android tablet recognizes the SD card
So I was able to plug the tablet into the computer and see the SD card, but could format it. The reason I'm asking for your (XDA Community) is because it's looking like whatever I can do to save this SD card, is going to have to be done through Android, as it's the only "system" that currently recognizes it.
I've google'd how to reformat the SD card via Terminal (Pac-Man rom w/ root access), and tried to Unmount /storage/sdcard1/ but was shown /system/bin/sh unmount: not found. I tried fdisk /storage/sdcard1/ to no avail either. Now I'm here!
So here I am, asking for help so that way I don't have to go cash in can's to buy a 16gb (ideal size for my use) sd card. I appreciate any help/input you can give me, so thank you for your time!
Just some background, we did some back/forth on this over Twitter and so far nothing that will get it to be recognized in Windows without mounting in the tablet. Any suggestions that folks would have would be most appreciated.
