Hey guys, I know this has nothing to do with the vibrant but I've searched everywhere and I can't find any answers. I'm trying to mount my friend's blackberry 8350 to my computer but I can only view the external SD card. Is there a way to view the internal as a mass media storage that isn't just recognized through the blackberry desktop software.

Hello,
i have a Samsung Galaxy S3 and lost some photos from the internal SD-Card. How can i mount the internal sd-card as UMS and not with MTP. The reason for that is, the recoverytools need a driveletter to search for lost files. The phone is connected with MTP. Can you help me please?
Thanks in advance
Sup guys.
I've installed the Verizon JB Leak following the tutorials around XDA.
Everything works great, booting fine...but i can't mount my internal storage.
I'm starting to have trouble for installing some apps - it just won't allow me to install.
Also, when i connect it to the computer like an USB Mass Storage, it keeps asking me to format it.
Is there anything i can do ? Maybe manually mounting ?
Thanks in advance.
Nevermind.
Formatted and fixed.
]Now i can't mount my SD card LOL (when connecting to the computer)
Hey XDA,
I've been doing a lot of searching and trying out apps that might help me, but nothing worked so far.
As of now, enabling the Mass Storage option on my Xperia Sola (CM11 by Munjeni) only mounts my internal SD in windows.
I want it to mount my external SD. It seems to me like this should be as easy as pointing to my external SD instead of internal but I guess it's not.
Anyone got an idea or know which files in the android system hold these kind of settings?
Much appreciated,
Bart

EDIT: Ok guys, I've found the app which lets me mount me external and internal SD card.

It's only for Xperia Sola.
help!! I need an application that allows me to handle the internal memory of my phone samsung s3 international version from the PC as a mass storage device and not as multimedia .
If your trying to say to convert an sd card into internal storage, change your rom to to an android 6 based one (i.e CM13) and there is this sd card setup allowing to let you use it as portable or mass storage.

I'm around trying to say that I want to use internal storage memory of the phone as a mass storage drive , I tried some apps does not work
Oh, that isn't really possible. A phone cannot be converted into a mass storage drive for PC. You will need a proper hard drive in order to do it.
Hi P9000 users!
I had now time to test some stuff with my P9000. One question: I inserted a Sandisk 128 GB SDXC Card (UHS) and formatted as internal Storage (want to move apps). Worked fine for the Phone and i was able to move apps to the SD. But after connecting Phone to USB (via MTP & unlocked phone) it only shows 32 GB internal SD. Also via File Explorer app on the phone i cannot find the external SD or mountpoint....
Anyone with same issue? I also changed connection-type to USB and then my OS (Win 10) does not open phone file system at all.
thx and br

We did an article about the SD card memory management in Marshmallow a while ago on the XDA portal that explains this, I'd suggest googling for it as I can't remember the title.
Edit: Something to do with the SD card being formatted as Ext4 (linux file system standard these days) and Windows not supporting Ext4 filesystems.
Thx for reply, so i am afraid its related to Android 6 default behaviour. So if SD is formatted as internal storage you cannot access via USB from PC or managing files on it via file browser app? Thats really disappointing for me since it then switches SD card to enhanced app storage only, useless for image, videos, music etc. Of course i can format as portable SD, but then no movement of apps are possible (via root its maybe the only option).
In SD portable mode, i also had issue that SD cards randomly disconnects and one time it even needed to be reformatted. Have read about that in another thread, that this is related to physical sd mount... will see to fix this with some tape :/ (gives me not a good feeling here)

Update: checked some forums and blogs, seems not to be android 6 default behavior that you completely cannot access the files on adopted SD-card anymore. after adopting as internal storage... anyone could also reproduce this? I will try doing factory reset with SD-Card inserted..
