I`m having a problem, when I try to explore the files in my internal sd card, the windows explorer crashes. Both mtp or usb debugging mode does not work.
Odin does not work as well to
Despite this issues my GS2 is working good. But I cant transfer Music or photos using USB
OK, that is the problem, but my question is if I can use a (one file package) that I downloaded here (that the tutorial said to flash it with ODIN) and use this file to update my ROM using recovery mode > update from SD card...
thank you
The question was if I can use a ODIN file to update from sd card using recovery mode > the answer is NO
I had a problem that my pc was not recognizing my phone, that way i couldn`t use ODIN to flash a firmware I wanned.
the solution is here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1382838
Resuming what I did:
unnistall kies and usb samsung drivers
checked usb debbuging mode ON
turn off cel
put cell in download mode and conect usb cable in my notebook
and reinstall kies with the usb cabble plugged IN, and than, windows recognized it, installed drivers, and I flashed the rom I wanned.
No Odin packages cannot be flashed from recovery .
Post reads as if you have no USB drivers installed from KIES ..
Check MOBILE ODIN on the market to flash from SD card .
How are you going to put a file on the SD card without USB .
jje
can you mount USB storage in recovery? If so transfer the odin file using recovery then use mobile odin to flash it.
Ricey
i can tranfer files using kies air,... wi-fi
thanks for the idea mobile odin, i think it will really help
i'll have to root my cel to use this... i`ve read a lot of options, which one is the best?
many thanks
Root + CWM .

Hi Guys,
I have a problem.
In clockwork Mod my phone cannot see the external SD card to flash a rom. Also, my pc cannot see the internal SD when in Mount. This means I am stuck without a rom and cannot use the phone.
Is there a way to fix this?
Cheers,
Jimi
Did you installed kies to have on your pc the latest samsung mobile drivers? (but dont forget to kill kies and not having it running in background if you planning to use Odin)
Im not 100% sure but the External SD only from cwm 4.1+ can be used, otherwise only usb mass storage (but i can be totally wrong here)
ALWAYS do nandroid backup before doing ANYTHING to your phone. As mentioned above, make sure you have installed drivers, then from CWM you should be able to mount internal storage to PC. If by some reason that doesn't work, see if ODIN will recognize your connected phone, if yes, then flash any ROM from ODIN.

All,
I've tried everything and I cannot get my PC's to recognise my GS2.
It's not even constant, sometimes I connect it via USB to the PC and it comes up as unrecongised device, other times it will detect as a camera as GT-i9100 (regardless of it I select MTP)... I've reinstalled Kiers I don't know how many times and have even manually installed the drivers but still no luck.
So I gave up with that as I only want to connect to Odin to get rid of this crap software. So I downloaded the CWM root package onto my SD Card and booted into recovery, went to apply the zip and it says it cannot mount /sdcard as not such directory exists?!?! Now I don't have an external SD Card but the .zip file is located on the internal storage in /sdcard/Downloads.
I have a Mac at home that allowed a connection into Kiers first time to update to stock ICS - should I just abandon this trying to connect to Windows and try and find an alternative to Odin for Mac?
Thanks for any help at all.
Dan.
but the .zip file is located on the internal storage in /sdcard/Downloads.
NO try copy pasting update zip file on root of SD card then try....
Edit : this rooting methed you can only try on ICS vesrions
Thanks ZACQ8.
I just thought I'd try another USB cable as a last shot, and OMG it started installing the drivers Still failed to install the Mobile MTP Device but it's getting there...
You have to use the same USB port when you connect your SGSII.
I noticed that if I plugged it into another port the phone would come up as unrecognised - this was all tested on a few PCs when the phone was on GB and connecting as an external hard drive.
I haven't tested if the problem still exists with ICS, as it do 'external hard drive'.
Seems like it was the cable all along...
Phone now recognised in Odin and Device Manager.
Pile of crap.
I have the following problems:
1. I can`t copy files to both the internal and external sdcard through usb
I tried to uninstall Kies and all the drivers, rebooted and reconnected the phone and windows says usb drivers not installed: missing cdc serial number. Than i installed Samsung mobile USB driver 1.5.5.0 and still cannot transfer files to and from the phone.
2. If i transfer files with Airdroid i cannot flash tem, it says E: not accessible ( i formated the external sdcard twice both on the phone and on the pc). Flashing from the internal sdcard is also not possible.
I have no clue what happened and i hope someone can provide a usefull tip. I`am on stock rom right now ,not rooted and did a factory reset and still no transfer possible. Get the message: Device stopped answering or the connection is broken. Tried several usb ports, using a samsung usb cable.
-Edit- SOLVED
Hello guys. I need to recover lost files which was on SGS 3's internal memory. I have software on PC which could recover them, but I could not connect phone as usb drive to PC. Anyone knows how to solve this problem?
thank you.
Search the exact same question asked multiple times .
Install USB drivers .

Are you sure that I can mount internal SD card as USB flash disk to PC after installing USB drivers?
No you can't. There is no ums mode anymore so the phone will not show up on your pc as a drive with a driveletter. Your recovery programs will not be able to recover.
If the files are on sd card you can try undelete or stick the sd in the pc to recover.

install kies if you havent already onto your pc (it installs required drivers)
plug the phone in to your pc - if it registers, flash a stock rom with odin

I agree with DSA "flash a stock rom with odin" @Racinghart91, Can you get in to download mode?
if the stock boot doesnt work!...(am hoping it does) .., .. try using the resurrection rom and flashing it via odin... Good LUck!
