Transfer files into HTC View - HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G

I can't figure out how to transfer movies,docs,music, etc. to my View from my computer.
I thought simply connecting it to it will automatically allow me but although my comp does recognize my View, It doesn't let me view/transfer and files to it.
Any ideas ?

click on the "USB connected" line in the notifications. Change it to "disk drive"and it will mount on your computer.

Oh ok thanks a lot,
Do you know what folder do I put videos/music in if I want to watch them later ?

Can you use an SD card and do all the work on your PC? I made a "music " folder and a "video " folder on the PC and did the transfer from there.

Some Files Not Showing When Connected To PC

I am having an issue with files not showing up on my PC, that are in root explorer. I search the directory on my PC and and it doesn't come up.
By default, GS2 connects in MTP mode which only shows/transfers media files (videos and pictures). You will need to connect as Mass Storage mode in order to show everything. Go to Settings->Wireless and networking->USB->Enabled USB Mass Storage before you connect the USB. Then you connec the USB and hit the button screen to enable the storage. This way, the phone storage will show up as a external drive.

Thanks I was able to view the files on the PC, I just can't see all the files. I am trying to access the directory. data/data/com.com.2us.HB3D to replace a comlib.dat file. I see this directory in root explorer, but on the PC I can only see /data/datacom.com.2us.HB3D and not any other files.

maybe I'm wrong but I didnt think you can see all your files on sdcard due to security reasons. Only files that are in the "sdcard" folder, or whatever its named now

Figured it out just now, a while ago when clicking SD card in root explorer, it would come up with "SD card not mounted". So what fox told me earlier did work! I transferred the file I needed to "USB Storage", then went to "SD Card" in root explorer and pasted the file over.
i guess i was wrong. glad to see you got it working, though.

[Q] Deleting a file with "write protection"...

I have this folder (with files from a download) that I have tried to delete from the phone storage (not the external SD Card).
No matter the method attempted, I keep getting:
"Cannot delete folder: The storage is write-protected.
Remove the write-protection and try again".
I've tried many ways on the phone itself (through Root Explorer...and I did make sure the RW is active), debugging has been tried on as well as off, etc...
Through the PC (Win7 SP1) as well (debugging on and off for this too). All drivers work for the phone, and no other problems. Can easily transfer files from the computer to the device.
I'm stock rooted with overclock kernel (but don't keep it overclocked).
I don't want/need this folder/files. Its not a system folder/file. I have moved it into my 'download' folder just to keep an eye on it. If I try to 'move it' to the external card, all it does is 'copy'.
Any and all helpful information would be greatly appreciated, as this is driving me nuts trying to delete this thing.

When I come across a suck folder like that I open the folder and delete each file one-by-one. Then delete the empty folder.
For persistent files I've had to change the file extention to delete it.
I copied all my files to PC and had to format my card. Then I re copied all the files to the card.
Nothing I did could save it.
Edit I read incorrectly. Its your internal card.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda app-developers app
I have the same issue...the internal sd card is giving me a write protection error.
Any way to fix it without doing a full wipe?
Thank you!
Why not backup ur important sd card commponents to ur PC , then goto custom recovery do internal/external sd card full wipe and then restart ur phone ! it worked for me. the restore all ur backup files.

Acutally I just solved it with really easy way on my Samsung Galaxy Note 3. I was studying formus for 2 hours and not one answer or advice helped So I did this:
1. turned off USB debugging in developers menu
2. after connecting my phone to pc I switched the phone to behave as media device (MTP) and not as camera (PTP) (in notification bar there will be "connected as a media device/as a camera" option after connection to PC - click on it and swtich it)
3. now everything works like a charm and I can delete and write to the SD card without a problem

It does not work your idea
open the phone then remove battery, (without switching off the phone) after you removed battery remove sd card also, and wait for 10seconds and put in sd card again, put battery too and switch on your phone, after this u can delete everything u couldn't. Hope it works for you too.
When I switch to media device than when I click on "phone" or "card" when I click, it says, device has stopped working or been disconnected.
Help!
1. Flash A Recovery ( I recommend TWRP).
2. Then Go to Advance >> File Manager.
3. Browse the File/ Folder you wanna delete.
4. Open the folder and go to option's (the blue coloured box with a tickmark).
5. Select Delete, and Swipe To Confirm.
(This procedure is for TWRP. Procedure may be different, depending on your recovery)

go to explorer on your computer. You should be able to see your phone as a usb drive with 2 subfolders labelled phone and card. Just drag and drop the files you want to copy or move.

[Q] USB to PC Issue-Android 4.1.2 on phone ZTE N9810/Sprint Vital

Hi. I have Android 4.1.2, which is stock on my Virgin Mobile ZTE N9810 phone that is 4gLTE. It is also called Sprint Vital on Sprint. On the Android 4.1.2--when I hook it up to the PC via USB; it does not show folders like the app ES Explorer does on the phone. My problem is that older versions of Androids showed all files and folders on my Windows 7 H.E. PC. This version does not. I need to access the download folder on the sd card but can't. On the PC in Windows Explorer, it does not show all folders on SD card, including the folder "Download." I have a video on there that i need to transfer to my PC, but because it's not showing that folder, I cannot transfer the file. I can work around that, but don't want to. I want access to the Download folder. Tried searching in Windows Explorer too and it comes up empty. Don't understand why this is so different than older Android versions. Also tried to get to it from the Phone folder verse SD Card folder. Still no luck and cannot find mnt folder either with Android 4.1.2. Even tried changing the USB connection option, like "Install Driver", "Connect to PC Software," and "Media Device (MTP)"-default option.
Note: If I go to Phone/Download, images and pdf files are there-even though they are on sd card-, but this folder with a video is not. Also, I have Show hidden files and folders checked in windows explorer.
So in summary, I need to access the SD Card download folder on my PC from my phone through USB, but it is missing and folders do not show the same in Windows Explorer as they do in ES Explorer on the phone. It is almost like the phone chooses what to displayon my pc.
