[Q] Vegan connection problems USB and WIN

I recently put the Vegan-tab V1.0.065.11 with the Cyanogen Mod kernel 2.6.32.32 on my new g Tablet. Prior to that time I was able to use my computer to load files as it saw my g Tablet as a storage device.
Now when I try to use the cable link between the computer and the tablet it recognizes it as a removable storage device but when trying to access the tablets file structure I get a windows pop-up that states "Please insert disk into drive F". I have tried this on two workstations both running XP with the same result.
I also am unable to read files on a memory stick. I had not tried this before I had switched to Vegan so I am unsure as to wither this was a problem prior to the switch.
There is no message on the tablet regarding the turning on of any service or the mounting of the USB device. Does anyone have any suggestions as how I can get these file transfer mediums working again?
I am having the same problem. It has worked fine for about two weeks and how I'm not getting the prompt either. The same thing happened with another ROM. I can connect fine with ADB. I am currently running VEGAn Gingerbread. The same problem happened when I was running AOSP Gingerbread. It happened after about five days with AOSP GB.
Same problem here - im using ginger edition
Are you guys turning on USB mass storage by selecting usb connected and then turn on?
That's the thing... after a period the prompt to turn on or off the USB storage stops displaying after a period. The only prompt that I see is for USB debugging, and turning that on or off has not affect on my ability to connect to the internal storage from multiple Windows boxes. The prompt was there last weekend, but it's gone now.

[Q] Why doesn't Linux detect USB Mass Storage mode after ICS upgrade?

As many people are experiencing with the Galaxy S2 and the Sony Experia phones (and others I imagine), I am no longer able to plug my phone in using USB Mass Storage mode in Linux. The storage won't show up in Gnome's file manager (I guess it won't mount or can't mount). The device appears when running "lsusb" to see usb devices.
Anyone have this problem? Anyone figure out a solution or have any idea how to figure this out?

[Q] Nikon dslr USB OTG (DslrDashboard) problem

Thanks for reading....
Has anyone been able to connect a Nikon DSLR (I have tried D7000) via USB OTG to their Desire X running Jelly Bean on a non-rooted phone? I have been able to connect an 8GB thumbdrive and mouse successfully but when the dslr is connected the drives are not available via ES file explorer or the images via the gallery, there are no error message the device is just not detected.
I have confirmed the cameras USB port by connecting to a standard PC successfully and I have tried the dslr with 1 and 2 SDcards in each slot in case the dual cards were causing an issue. Upon connecting the camera the access light flashes so I know some kind of connection is attempted.
USB Host Diagnostics shows the OS has support for USB OTG.
Should this work on a non rooted setup or do I need to root and install a custom ROM for full USB OTG support? Hopefully I can find a way to connect the device and use DSLR Dashboard.
Phone:: Desire X
Android:: 4.1.1
Sense:: 4+
Software Num :: 2.22.206.3
HTC SDK API level :: 4.65
Kernel :: 3.4.0-g162d501
Carrier : O2 (UK)
Thanks Again.
It depends on the filesystem used on the flash card of the camera. If it is using ntfs, you'll need root to mount the partition.

Thanks for your response, the 16GB cards are SDHC and are natively formatted to FAT32. I have also tried a FAT16 256MB card and with no card inserted. Same result as before the device isn't detected.
I will try to root the phone over the w/e and see it this helps.
Are you sure the camera gets enough power? Alternatively, get yourself a USB SD card reader and put the card in there.
ybrHous cannot
It may be a power issue, I know with portable hard drives an additional powered connection is sometimes needed. However I think the camera connection is purely used for data and the camera is operating from its own battery.
I should have said in the original post the connection will be used with the DSLR Dashboard app to control the camera remotely.
Thanks again

I717 windows explorer doesnt see

when I plug in my I717 via USB in my desktop, windows sees it as Samsung Android device, but when I go into windows explorer, there's nothing to see (the usb or sd storage isnt listed at all) and I do have mtp usb storage activated on the phone and usb debug. I am running gingerbread touchwiz rom. I can see the phone and transfer files wirelessly with ES file explorer, but I cant access the sd card or the phones internal storage through usb windows explorer connection even though device management shows Samsung android device. Windows Device manager shows the phone with no yellow flags. anyone had this happen and found solution to share? thanks
You can try rebooting the computer, using different usb ports, using a different cable. I don't know if this works on gingerbread but I have used it on jellybean roms before when I've had trouble connecting... https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=in.zatta.USB_switch
Just thought of one other thing. You didn't say anything about Windows loading the device drivers so I gotta ask if you have installed the Samsung drivers?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
yep..have samsung drivers. also, about the app you linked above, I'd like to try it out but google play says its not compatible with my device (probably because I'm still on gingerbread). anywhere else I can download the apk and try manual install?
I think your problem is that you are connecting via MTP (media transfer protocol). You need to connect via USB mass storage. With your Note not connected to your PC, go into Settings, under Wireless and network look for USB utilities. Follow the phone's instructions for connecting to USB storage to your PC. Wait for the Windows autostart to read the phone storage. (My PC is XP and takes a minute or so.) Then you should see two new drives show on Windows Explorer. One is phone internal storage and the other is the phone's external SD card. Hope this works for you. Good luck!
I believe sonebwood is on the right track on this. I remember when the Note first came out I had to change something to get windows to see the drives. Is there any particular reason you keep the phone on gingerbread? ICS was a lot better and you can update to JB through Kies.
