usb launch manager - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hello devs
i wonder why we don't have USB Launch Manager (if i can name it like that) when plugin our usb to the computer to choose like sony ericsson , motorola and htc android phones ???
i mean : mass storage, charge only, pc internet ......etc
Can you our experts do that for us ? is it possible?

That reminds of my old samsung corby
But if u manually want to enable sdcard mount on pc then go in settings->apps->developer->usb debbuging
and then connect phone to usb,drag notification bar down,click on usb mass storage and then turn on

don't think it's a long way to do that every time you want to change btw kies and storage while other products do this with a single touch ???

Its not possible then

i'm not a programmer .. but isn't it a file which is responsible to do this process that we can manipulate it to work with SG s2 since all products run Android ?

Files from other company phones depends on their framework,so isn't possible now until some dev looks into it

Paranoid android vs mass storage problem

Hi there,
I am new here and realize I first have to search the forum for the problem i encounter , I did that, could not find the exact problem.
One mentioned slow copying but it was resolved after someone advised him to use a 2.0 usb port.
But that's not the issue in my case
I installed latest paranoid android rom as the second rom in the dualboot option from siyah kernel.
I followed all the instructions to install it correctly.
When i connect phone to pc to copy file the pc hangs, that means, the program which is doing the copying hangs, (both total commander as well as windows file explorer) have to close it with task manager, then when I browse the phone I see the file i tried to copy is present with the original size, but its corrupted, its only size being reserved for the file.
It is not an usb port problem, because when i boot the phone to my first rom (simplistic disaster) i can copy files to the phone, and its fast.
anyone have this problem or know a solution i would be be grateful, because I like the rom, but if I cannot copy files to it it goes down the trunk.
yours sincerely
Ronald
Put out your microsd and connect it directly to pc, works fine? If not it's card issue. Format could help in this case.

Thanks for your response, I did not try that before allthough im pretty sure its not the solution, because if it were the case i would have the same problem with the other rom booted.
But to not make a fool out of myself i tried it anyway s, and like i anticipated: no problems with the sdcard, the problem also occurs when i copy to the internal sd card, so its most likely some combination of the paranoid android rom with other issues .
Hard to say anything wise... I would try to find answer in rom specific thread. Hope you will solve it. Good luck!

He said nothing of posting in the thread. He said you should try to find the answer in that thread.
The 10 post rule is there to (hopefully) prevent people from posting random threads in development fora. Doesn't seem to help much though.
Hello
First, excuse for my english. I'm french, and like you know, we are the worst of the world in foreign language (thanks google Trad).
Two, thanks to this ROM, she's great, the best Rom i test since i've my SGII.
So, I'm here because i've a problem (surprised?). When i copy my music Folder (4,5Go), I've a first error message who tell that a sing have a wrong format (MP3). It's not really a problem, because I can ignore it and let the copy continue. But after that, I've a second error message for another file. This time, the message tell me that the phone not respond (sorry, I try to translate Win7, in french: "le périphérique ne répond plus") and i have to stop all the copy or ignore this file. If I ignore, I've the same problem for the following files, and all my folders are empty.
This problem appear with or not the debug mode.
Can you help me? Sorry if the question have been already ask, i've search all this afternoon (I live in Reunion Island, actually it's 5:00pm) and i don't find any answer.
Thanks a lot.

The problem you're having is normal at least for now, and I've experienced it many times.
These are my observations and how I've solved the issue in different occasions:
Observations:
- this issue occur randomly
- it's more common if your computer has been hibernated too many times without rebooting
- it's also common if an app on your phone is also trying to access your storage simultaneously.
Solutions:
- stop the copying process, and reconnect your device to the pc.
- reboot your Pc
- copy your files via Wi-Fi using apps - reboot to recovery, connect your phone to your Pc and mount your device as usb (under mount option in recovery) and copy your files.
Note:
-The solutions listed above are not dependent on each other, and one of them will sure get the job done till mass storage mode is fixed in the Rom.

Hello,
I try to connect my Gs this morning like you tell me. But it doesn't work.
Firts, i boot my PC after a good night. I re-boot my phone and after that i connect it to my PC.
The same error appear at the begining of the copy.
So, i try to mount my USB storage (i've no Wify to my job so i can't test this solution). The PC detect my phone (it was in the peripheral equipment, but the SD doesn't appear in the explorer.
I'll try to change the kernel, i would like to flash Siyah. If i'm lucky, maybe it will work. Which siyah's version is compatible with PARANOID. I maybe understand there a problem the beta6.

Sorry for not clarifying the kernel part.
I use Siyah and mounting usb in recovery works perfectly well.
Siyah 3.5.2 and above are compatible but I always recommend 4.0.1

No problem, thanks you. i'll flash Syiah this week
At home, i try to transfert files with airdroid apk and it works but this soft not allow to transfert several selected files or folders.
Thanks you again for your help.
Hello,
Just to tell you about my problem. With Siyah I could copy all my folders in Recovery mode. I hope the problem will be resolverd with the next PA's version.
Thanks again.

SO i read now its a common problem with the rom , i did not find that information yet, I now using the cynogenmod 9 from july because i was hoping to solve the mass storgage issue and guess what, the same problem, so now i know its not paranoid android related but a cynogen mod issue.
I actually have a new problem since i have a new adsl modem, cyanogen mod does not have a wps option to connect to a wifi router, the modem i have wont connect with any android device the regulary way by typing the wep password wich worked fine with other devices like ps3,TV and a laptop, we have 3 android devices (2x s2 and 1x 10.1 tablet) and all only can connect with the wps option wich unfortunally is missing in cyanogen mod
But I dont see this as a rom problem, only as a missing feature.

[Q] [ROM 4.2.2] JELLYBAM [v6.4.0] [MiXED - PARANOID - AOKP - CM10.1 - CARBON]

Switch to USB Mass Storage Mode as default - Could anyone kindly teach me how to do it at this new rom ? only connected as MTP media which is not user-friendly when I copy videos to external sd card.
I tried to search "mass storage" within the thread but no answer for that.
did the jellybam thread just vanish?

I wonder why, is it because he is accused of taking element from other roms again? I say who cares, his latest release is so perfect on S2, the roms that may accuse him have issues with their roms, his rom has no issue, therefore that is different enough for me!
He has his own website anyway: http://www.modmydroid.net/jellybam/

What a pity then, because either way, his 6.4 rom is more stable than those roms that he has incorporated features from.
There are certainly some elements of this "open" development community I do not comprehend that's for sure! Glad I'm a user and not a rom compiler!

[Q] Usb Mass storage missing on JB

Basically i ve discovered an horrible thing with the JB version ... USB MASS STORAGE doesnt not exist anymore
for swap this function HTC has close the system and force the user to use a sync soft like itunes ...
First answers receive by users : use air droid , file expert or jump into recovery for be able to acces to sd card ... what s the hell
those function doesnt interest me and really more boring to use or configure
i dont want downgrade to ics for keep this essential function ...
anyone has an idea for put the usb mass storage working correctly and efficiently to JB ?

I think you can use muti mount from play store to fix the issue.
yeah download an app to mount your sd ! its working
and swap doesnt work if you are on ics hboot..otherwise i dont know :S

Hey guys i have a question and no I dont have the jb update(am in india).
Did any of you try press the menu key(long press multitasking button) while in settings>storage .There should be an option to lead you to a menu that has an option to toggle between mtp and ums by default its mtp.
this is from my experience on another device.Can someone try it and either confirm or deny this.Thanks:good:

no doesnt work in ics stock rom donno about jb though..
you can read some general android changelogs before complaining... I cant wait for zounds of ppl complaining about mtp protocol (mark my words... )
If you connect your device with usb into the pc a couple drivers will install, after that there is a new media device called ''HTC Desire X'' in my computer. You can drag and drop your files there as usual

I know about ics but since ums works on ics and there is no mtp protocol there is no reason for this to be enabled hence Im asking if anyone tried it in jb.

Which HBOOT version are you on? I suppose ICS. Is that correct? If yes, follow instructions on http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=40241468&postcount=214. Those worked for me. Make sure the hTC drivers are latest with MTP driver installed and you have full root using flar2's method : http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2136815.
One more thing, Step 5 in ckpv5's guide is very important. This will not work if you are running Multi Mount app from App Drawer. You have to add Multi Mount Widget on desktop and click that widget to mount your SD card.

Hes pointing out that this forum has rules, you have agreed to obey them, and you right now broke first of them (and its first, because it makes sense, not because its bull****), youre most likely here just to solve this problem and not participate any further, so you dont care if you and others like you flood forum with ten topics regarding EXACTLY same problem. So use that search button, its easy. Or read some general android changelogs before complaining about USB MASS STORAGE missing (why these 3 words in capitals, its not acronym, only USB is...)
+ at least try to type name of thread in english
Multi mount working for me on Jb on ICS-HBOOT

multi mount app from market works.. i tried it and worked...when you install it you have to add a widget on the screen from this app and i think on one point you have to reboot..
just try it with patience dont install it and not try everything if you have no success just tell me i ll write a full guide here so everyone will be happy..

It's not working for me. Widget is telling to connect USB / touch to close but when connecting to PC Windows is connecting via MTP - but no change of Multi Mount widget. 'MTP fix' option is checked.
Your support (or the announced guide) would be much appreciated.
Thanks!

Cant copy big files via USB

hey guys, i have a pretty big problem with my OnePlus3.
whenever i copy a lot of files (like mp3s) or very big files (movies) via usb from phone to pc or from pc to phone i basically always get an error somewhen during the copy process.
if it are a lot of small files most of them get copied and i just have to try the missing ones again. but bigger files are nearly impossible to copy due to this stupid error.
the error occurs on differnt points of the copy progress bar so its not always the same. i guess if i would try it 100 times i might have luck somewhen and be able to copy a big file.
i really dont know what to do about this...
i am running Freedom OS 1.7 (Android M), but already had this problem on privious versions and stock (OxygenOS). so its nor ROM related i guess. also i havent found any similar problem in OP3 section. no idea whats wrong :/
pc is win10, usb driver installed ofc.
if you need to know something else just ask.
please help me obi wan...eeh, xda. you are my last hope.
I have two options
First: Try transferring files wirelessly using shareit,xender etc....
Second: Go to mobile info and click on build number five to ten times
Then you will get a toast saying congrats you are a developer
Now Go to developer options in setting and enable usb debugging
Then try transferring the files again
Hope this solves your problem
