Try re-installing the device drivers on your pc.

Did you try a different usb port as well? I've never used kies, but its my understanding it comes with its own set of drivers. Did you install those? If not, give it a try. How its done though, I wouldn't know off the top of my head. On the other hand if you did install them, uninstall kies and/or the drivers, and other ones if you have them, reboot, and reinstall the drivers you knew to work the last time. Also try a different computer if you have access to one, and see if it works.
Edit: I just read through the thread again after having my morning coffee, and didn't see one item in particular mentioned. In your settings - applications - usb settings, are you set to mass storage mode?
Set usb settings to mass storage and tried but no luck

Phone Mounting
Not sure what ROM you are using but I had a similar issue. With stock Vibrant the phone would mount as two drives in both Windows and SUSE - no problems. After installing the Nero V5 ROM the other day I couldn't get the phone to mount as a drive in either SUSE or Windows. Both OSs could see the phone since tethering worked. After much searching in a few forums I couldn't get a clear answer about what was going on.
Turns out that in addition to the normal use of USB debugging mode I now had to turn on USB storage in the notification area. It always turned on automatically before and when plugging in a USB cable the notification said USB was connected but the drives weren't being automatically mounted. I think it is because the Nero ROM has built in tethering and you have to specifically select either tether of USSB mount after the cable is plugged in. I think this extra step that wasn't needed before (because tether wasn't a system option) is what is causing some of the problems. Just a guess but one that worked for me.
Even after selecting mass storage from the notification bar the drives are not appearing.
I am on stock froyo. Haven't been able to try in a different pc, will let u guys know after trying in a seperate pc.

This worked for me and it has worked do far.... go to settings, applications, USB settings, and enable Ask on connection.. then it asks select Kies... it usually took a couple of times but it always worked for me.
I had to go back to an older version of Kies to make it connect. Allow it to update the phone's firmware but not update Kies.

Guys nothing seems to be working for me, tried ask on connection but nothing is working. The phone can recognize the pc but the pc isn't.
When I go to device manager nothing is recognized in my usb port.

Try reloading Kies 1.5.3.10092_2 and be sure not to allow it to update itself automatically. This is the only way I have been able to get it to work with my Galaxy S (while running factory 2.1, rooted).
I just upgraded to the standard 2.2 (haven't rerooted yet) but haven't yet upgraded to a newer version of Kies to see if these changes to the phone will have any effect on this connection problem. Just like you, the phone seems to be detecting the connection properly, just Kies won't finish connecting.
DONT ENABLE OPTION ASK ON CONNECTION POUT IT ON MASS STORAGE , IF THIS DIDNT HELP AND YOU ARE NOT ON STOCK LAUNCHER LIKE TOUCH WIZ .....REINSTALL TOUCHWIZ AND RUN IT AS DEFAULT should help .
and if u are on 2.1 eclair u need touchwiz back to make yoooour phone discoverable by kies . hey .

I upgraded via kies only, the pc detected the phone that time without any hitch. After the upgrade I am having this issue.
How to reinstall touchwiz?

Guys found the solution at last. There were two "pmp.usb.ini" files, one in phone sd and another in external sd. Just deleted them and tried to connect....voila...my pc can recognize my phone again.

Hi,
I'm facing a peculiar problem with regards to the updates that applications receive from the android market,it happens as follows:-
I receive the updates notification,
->i press the update all button or individually update, it starts downloading,
->shows download paused
-> starting download,
->download paused
->then download starts and completes
->then AGAIN it shows starting download,
->then it suddenly shows INSTALLING,
-> then gives a notification of UPDATE FAILED.
-> if i touch the update failed notification it shows could not download to USB Storage or SD Card
this happens whether i select update all or single update, however i can download apps to my device, and uninstall and reinstall the apps which are not getting updated. I would like to state that my SD card is in normal condition as movies and movies play off it smoothly. I also tried restarting, Unmounting and remounting the card, but the problem is still there.If anybody has faced this problem and found a solution for it, please let me know. Thank you in advance
I too have this problem. I have found that on some apps you can uninstall first then move back to SD. If anyone has a better solution I would love to know

i dont have such problem, but my market always FC when i tap on the 'just in' apps tap. wondering what has happen with the market apps... =/
Try updating via LG software while connected to your computer through usb cable.
Perhaps, it's the common sd card mounting error, wherein, sometimes the sd card automatically un-mounts and remounts, causing phones to restart, fc for apps, etc.
Firstly, Thanks to all of you for replying to this post. Although i am still facing this problem, i have found a temporary solution to this, even though its not very elegant, its quite useful if you have to update system centric apps like android assistant, go sms pro, titanium backup etc.
->Move the applications which aren't updating to the internal memory,
->Go to the my apps section in android market
-> Update!!!
-> move the app back to the SD memory
Yes i know not as convenient as tapping "Update All", but till a proper solution comes out, this will have to do. Also hell1134 if LG android software is working for you, then you're ONE LUUUUUUUUUCKYYY Guy. Cos in my experience all it ever does is freeze up and suck osama balls. Very badly made software, Uninstalled it the MINUTE i discovered myphoneexplorer.
Hello all i have the FXP202-cm-9-20130111-UNOFFICIAL-pepper on my phone already, may be from 2 days..
I find something strange in the Sound menu where you can change the ringtones- all of them are duplicated like:
Girtab
Girtab
Glacial Groove
Glacial Groove
and soo on.. is this normal?
Other question is how to enable USB to PC like in normal ICS and to see the SD card in PC. I like the mass storage option in old ICS because some times i just upload music to SD card and other stuff. I read something about enable it on Experia S but can i do it on Sola too?
On the old Original android 4.0.4 there is a program for backup (icone of program is like door of safe) and restore that i think it's comes whit the ICS- can't find it on GooglePlay. I need it because have some backups made on it.
PS: Mass storage stat to work... just disable no market application option, then works.. strange after enable it USB to PC again works.. But for me is OK...
How come you post first 2 threads in correct section but this thread in wrong section?
Hey, Guys
My Xperia Sola has the ROM Slim-4.4.4. build 9.0. (Probably the Slim Rom)
When I connected my Xperia to my PC I accidentally unchecked the MTP and Mass Storage Mode via the navbar when it showed up. Now I can't change it back because it obviously doesn't show the notification. I tried searching for these Settings in the Settings --> Xperia ---> Connectivity but my ROM however doesn't even have the option "Xperia". I tried changing it back via an App from the play store but that didn't work out. Now I can't change it back and can't connect my phone to the pc. :/
Could you please help me? What should I do?
Forgot to say: I don't have any backup to restore it
I had the same problem on SlimKat 4.4.4. I solved it this way:
connect your phone to a PC. Go to settings>developer settings(if you don't have it, google for developer settings activate). Now search for USB deubugging. Try to uncheck it and see if phone is visible in My Computer. If no then check it again and see My Computer for phone. If no then uncheck it again. Phone storage should be visible in My Computer.
It worked on my phone Xpera sola. I haven't found better method for it because I installed SlimLP.
Good luck trying this.
My phone is a (cheap) Wiko Ozzy. I know it's not the greatest machine ever but it does the job for my mobile needs (being able to quick search the internet everywhere and communications), it was only 80€ new and it comes with no bloatware but google's. Also to root it a simple framaroot run does the job.
I have the phone customized alot, many xposed tweaks, automate, nova laucher, gravity box. The rom is the stock 4.2.2
One day I was messing up with android tweaker 2 and changed the dalvik heap size. When I reboot it the did not boot... It had that vibration key feedback problem. lol....
I went into recovery mode and made a backup... Yes, I did not had one and made it after the boot problem.
For my luck Wiko has a website with the roms they put on phones for download. With a simple program you can reinstall the rom very easily. I did it and my phone booted. I then tried to restore the backup I had previously done and for my surprise it boot with all my customizations but root access and busybox that I had to reinstall.
So what is the problem you ask?
Well I lost access to the phone storage and now It says Im out of space when I try to install apps
I used to have SDcard, Internal Storage and Phone Storage.
And I used to have the option to default install on sdcard and phone storage. The phone storage option disappeared but on the bottom of the page there is a mount option for it that just wont work.
I also tried to access it on windows and even after formatting the phone storage drive (windows was prompting for it and since the phone worked all fine without access to it I did it) the problem persisted...
Can you help me please?
I wanted to make the apps install on phone storage without having to make a real factory reset so I dont end without all my tweaks...
No one have any ideas?
I dont know what more can I add...
The phone is working fine... the only thing missing is one of the three partitions I had before the reinstall...
The weirdest to me is that in the storage settings I have the option to mount the "Phone Storage" but it fails.
I click it and the bars for type of files appears and disappears a few seconds later with the notification: you can safely remove phone storage....
Now I cant even install Adobe Air to try .swf viewer because it says it is out of space... It's like it ignores the sdcard default install option (the only one I have now and that is selected).
