Hello,
I just flashed the community ROM and I have updated it to v1.2. The problem I have encountered is that USB storage is not working. It charges, but when I mount the SD card I cannot access it from my computer. I know there is nothing wrong with the computer, cable, or SD card as I have tried them on a different phone and they work fine. Any assistance would be appreciated.
thanks
Have you tried turning on usb debugging?

USB debugging was on. I tried turning it off and the phone showed up as a CD Rom drive. This is strange?
Same problem here. After update to last nemesis2all kernel.
I am trying to view the files on my phone on my PC at work. I am unable to install Kies. I have tried the USB Utilities section but it does not work. On my HTC when you plug the USB in it came up with a menu asking you what you wanted to do, is there sommething like this on Samsung phones?
FYI, this is my first Samsung phone.
Enable USB Debugging mode...not sure if it still needs the drivers for that though, I think you still might.
try pull down the top bar and select the usb message, then click on connect storage from pc
Tried that, still nothing. If you still need drivers thats rediculous! I should b able to plug my phone into any computer and view my sd card files, if not then its not much better than an iphone!
that's strange.. i got sgs2 delivered to my work today, so yeah I have no related software or drivers installed, plugged in and entered usb storage successfully.
Btw my PC is still on XP and i cancelled all the driver request that poped up

No drivers needed AFAIK for mass storage... Can you check device manager and see if it shows.
Got it:
-Enable usb debugging
-return to home screen
-plug usb cable in
-pull down status bar
-press ' connect usb storage' button

It works for the internal mass storage, but i have a 16GB Sandisk SDHC card installed... i used to see/find both the internal storage and the 16GB card in my computer after connecting through USB cable but suddenly from today i am not seeing the 16GB card though it is accessible through My Files on the phone.
Any help??
Ok it's very simple you go settings then wireless and networks,usb utilities,click turn on usb storage then connect cable to pc.
i go into settings and choose usb debugging this way it stops the kies pop up each time

There is another approach.
1- Disconnect cable from phone
2 - Disable (uncheck): Applications \ Development \ USB Debugging
3- Go to Wireless and network \ USB utilities
4- Click Connect storage to PC. A message will show up with a "Cancel" button. DO NOT CLICK IT.
5- Connect cable to phone. The little green robot will show up.
6- Click the button to enable USB mass storage.
Whats the catch?: If you only enable USB debugging, only the Extenal SD will mount. If you do this way, then Internal USB and Extenal, both, will be mounted.

tried this to no avail. After I connect cable at step 5, no little green guy, no option to choose? Any ideas?
Is it a proper data cable?

The external storage is actually a sub directory on the phone storage, it's called external_sd_card iirc (if I remember correctly)
Welcome to the world of Samsung
UMS not mounting - W7
Hello, I have the same problem.
I have done the following already and it doesn't work:
·Updated Kies in hope to get the drivers for my phone.
·Looked for support in official Samsung website, thus downloading a program to install the drivers for my phone.
·Update through Windows update (failed in windows)
Also when i enable USB debugging mode I am forced to disable it just before turning on the USB Mass Storage. Doesn't mount and doesn't recognise phone (can't find in Device Manager).
I suppose I could live using the MTP way but still, like voiced by other people I would also like to have USB Mass Storage mode.
Thank you.
Solution:
I think I have found the solution, I have not tried this yet and supposedly you need CF-root kernel (so Siyah and other kernels might not work). Here is the link:

Like the author of that thread has said, I am not responsible if your phone gets bricked, stolen, eaten, drunk, chewed by your dog or anything of the sorts either directly or indirectly! USE AT YOUR OWN RISK!

You have not in your notification : "USB connected / Select to copy files to/from your computer"?
Do you have drivers?

There is a strange problem since I bought my gs3.. It never recognized MTP. whenever i connect phone to pc via the usb provided with the box, it only displays charging but not any usb detection, even my pc won't connect any device, as if nothing is connected. My pc recognize it in download mode. But as soon as the rom boots up the usb connection no longer exist and hence no selection menu in notification bar comes. Currently running paranoid android 3.10
I want to transfer big files to my sd card but can't and every time i have to eject sd card connect to another phone and then transfer files.
Please help.
Use airdroid, No need for a usb connection

airdroid works well, but i prefer using FTP using es file manager app and filezilla on the pc.

Download SD Card Mounter app from Play Store and mount external storage.... PTP/MTP will work after it Don't chose Charging only option in USB options again.
