I rooted my device and upgraded to ICS. I know how to do that part. But now that I have ICS and am trying to copy over the latest update, the tablet is not recognized by my computer. it says it is there and the debugging notification comes up on the tab but the device is not listed under "MY COMPUTER." I have to restore it to android 3.2 in order to install a new ROM.
Any one else having this issue or are there any suggestion? Thank you.

Have you tried settings -> storage -> upper right corner, menu, select usb and then select MTP?
Or search?

Buy wifi file explorer pro from the market and never use your cord for anything but charging again! Problem solved.

This. But most definitely the second option of this response.
Or, ES file explorer for free.
Google was my friend in this

vibrant, unrooted (trying to root using the method in sticky with update.zip). I follow the instructions to enable mass storage device, then plug into usb/laptop. i see that it recognizes 2 new drives, but both cannot be accessed (insert a disc in removable drive K).
does anyone know how to fix this?
Try this...
From the home screen hit the menu>settings>applications>usb settings...
Make sure you have the "mass storage" or "ask on connection" radio button checked.
also make sure you have usb debugging turned on
......AND, it never hurts to just reinstall your Samsung USB drivers...what youre experiencing happens to me every once in a while, and i just reinstall the drivers and everything is good
i have the usb drivers installed on my comp-same issue.
i could not have debugging and mass storage on at teh same time. it always asked me to turn the other off when i wanted to do the other.
of course this was all on stock.

i realize you have the drivers.....but just reinstall them. just run the .exe and it will say something like "these drivers are already installed. would you like to proceed?" then just say yes
its fixed this exact issue with me several times...just try it out, it cant hurt
Thanks!
Thanks guys, I tried those already. I'm thinking it's the drivers which I just tried to load but my computer cannot locate them. Any links or suggestions?

I don't mean to sound like an idiot but I'm really feeling like one right now. When I follow your link to the drivers I end up having to install Driver Genius or Driver Boost and of course they tell me I've got multiple driver issues and want me to register and pay. Where am I going wrong? Thanks for your help.

HAHA i know there are a lot of confusing links. its setup like that on purpose for advertising, its supposed to screw you up
see where it says "click here to download drivers"? click on the button directly below that
then on the next page, under where it says "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" click on "Softpedia Secure Download (US) [EXE]" ---> thats your download link
for some reason the cards are locked for me. i did find a way to open them but it really is a hassle: after the mass storage click, plugging it into laptop, i open voice dialer and say "open sd card" and click ok. then i click "enable mass usb storage device" on the top of the next screen and then my computer gains access to it.
WEIRD! but works. if anyone knows how to fix without using voice dialer, please let me know.
you have to enable USB debugging before you plug in your USB cord.
lol are you running custom kernel like test 14 ? due to bug? i dunno , u wont find anty storage .

yes, i tried that. still same thing "Please insert disk"...
i guess its certain hardware then!
works after switching to bionix rom though, it gives me a little button to press "connect usb storage" after clicking enable mass usb storage. now i dont have to do voice dialer.

yup, it always works for me, just remember to do that whenever you have trouble accessing your phone via PC....sometimes its the smallest solutions we never think of
So i got my 10.1v awhile back and now have a GNEX so i went ahead and rooted and unlocked via the recovery.zip, kernel.zip method and installed the kang rom. the Rom installed and i have Clockwork installed and working properly but now my device doesnt show up as a storage device, Running windows 7 x86. It shows up as an unspecified device SCH-I905. Under the properties it shows up as an ADB device and a USB composite device, ive manualy installed the drivers, and alowed keis to try to detect it and to no avail.... Should also be said i dont care one bit if i have to flash with a 10.1 Wifi rom due to the fact i dont intend to ever use the 3g.
So i guess my question is how do i get my tab to read as a mass storage device?
You need to enable MTP:
USB MTP:
Go into the settings
Choose storage
Tap the 3 dots in the upper right (menu)
Choose "USB computer connection"
Check "Media device (MTP)"
Done

I have purchased a new low cost tablet from pantel. I tried to root it. But all rooting apps asks to enable USB Debugging option. But in my tablet i dont have that option. There is no Development menu under Settings > Applications menu. Is there any way to root my tablet?
OS: android 2.3.3
I got the USB Debugging option on my tab by following the steps given below,
Step1: Install the "LauncherPro" App.
Step2: If u cant see the installed "LauncherPro" app, install "HomeSwitcher" App.
Step3: Open the "homeswitcher" and open the "LauncherPro" from the list.
Step4: Now the launcher is changed in your tab. Go to the "home screen". long press on the empty area of the home screen.
Step5: You will be asked with some "Add to home screen" options. In that select "shortcuts".
Step6: You will be asked to "Select Shortcut". In that select "Activities".
Step7: In next screen scroll down to select "Settings". On pop down select "Development". Then select "Ok"
Now you got the "Development" shortcut on home screen. Open that to enable/disable USB Debugging option.
But still i'm not able to root my tab.
I tried all the apps listed below,
1. Z4root - it exits after few seconds while rooting. no change.
2. universal androot - no Fu Goo error.
3. Gingerbreak - Runs forever. no change.
Is there any other way to root.
try UNLOCK ROOT http://www.unlockroot.com/

Can you connect the tab to Windows PC as USB Mass Storage? I think that the USB functionality has been blocked.

If it acted like secondary Launchers did and you could set it to default easily, then yes. Otherwise I don't know of a way to do that, but really, is going into the status bar and changing it that big of a deal?
AW: Android 4.2.2: Always mass storage mode when I plug in USB?
Just go to settings -> connections -> USB and choose what you would like to do for default
No connections option on 4.2.2

Select Settings>Storage and then select menu(In most phones the menu is the left touch button). Then you can see USB computer connection. Select it and tick Mass Storage. You are done.
4.2.2 does not have that option

I have been going out of my mind ..staying up late trying to figure out why my Galaxy S4 was not being recognized. It seemed like all I was getting was NO where fast. Mostly thinking I had to root and bla bla bla. But this may have been the answer. I just saw the USB symbol pop up on my phone. Fingers Crossed this is the solution
THANK YOUUUU

I have a Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 (GT-P3113) . Here's the question. Can I use this on it and how do I punch it in? Right now it is A) showing a red x in the battery when plugged in, but still charging; and B) not recognized by my computer when I plug it in there, and yes, I have the correct drivers installed. Thank you.
Ok this tutorial will help you root Acer Iconia One 7 (B1 - 740) (based on my experience :good and any other Acer Iconia tablets I think but before doing this, please kindly make sure that any damage on your device is not my fault. Rooting your device is too risky so, if you come up with the final decision to root it, please kindly follow the steps below:
1.) Make sure you have intalled the adb drivers for you device in your PC /Laptop
2.) Download the tools (in zip) here (http://speedy.sh/CXgXg/Tools-Used-For-Root.7z) and extract on your desired Drive in your PC:
3.) Install the application inside the folder ROOT APP (KINGO)
4.) Open the ADB folder then
5.) Double click ADB.EXE
6.) Double click Start.cmd
7.) Write down "adb devices" in the opened CMD and make sure that your device is on the list of attached devices
8.) Run the Kingo Android ROOT app
9.) Then your device should be recognized by the Kingo Android ROOT app
10.) Click root button
could you please give a link to the adb drivers you used?

Try this first, on your device, select install drivers and software options, this can be found on usb debugging, mtp, then the third option is what I've said earlier, select that and you should be able to see the drivers of your phone in the My Computer then the name of your device, inside that folder would be the drivers for your device including the right adb drivers for your device? Do you follow?
oh, are you saying that tab itself has its drivers? i'll check this when i'm back home. thanks.

yeah, you've got it right. :good: But for me, since the drivers in my tab seems to be corrupted so I've installed the generic adb from win 8. Is your computer is windows 8 already?
no, win 7 64 bit.

apparently thats another difference between 730 and 740.
when i connect the tab and tap the usb connection on the tab, it only gives me 2 options, mtp and camera, no third option "install drivers".
