[Q] My PC doesn't see the internal storage, why? - Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

My Tab is P7500, rooted and I have Mod version: aokp_p4_build-31. My issue is when I connect it to my PC, it doesn't see the internal storage. I'm trying to transfer some files to the internal storage but cannot. Please help
Thanks problem solved with some search in the forums

How did you solve the problem?

Most likely the "problem" that everybody who doesn't search faces.
settings, storage, 3 dots, USB transfer, mtp connection

I haven't been able to get my Tab to connect in months. What do you mean 3 dots?
I go to Settings -> Storage...not dots

about the MTP mode and ....

When I connected my tab to the computer using usb cable, it popped up with MTP and the tab shows in the windows explorer.
But after I push the home button and quit the MTP mode, how can I bring MTP mode back without plug in/out the usb case? Is there any shortcut? Thanks.
How can I share files between tab and computer without using the usb cable?
My computer don't have bluetooth and I don't prefer wifi ad hoc p2p connect.
I feel a bit regret to buy the tab as not to have the sd card slot is really inconvenient. I cannot move the pic in the camera to the tab easily.

Get websharing app from market to copy files without using cables. Trial version lets you copy 1 file at a time. Paid version lets you copy multiple files at once.
Also, regretting about anything is just waste, search and you will find answers to all your questions in abundance, that has most and all the solutions.

Thanks. I will try it.
I searched for MTP and could not find an answer.
Just got another question: How can I reduce the volumn of the feedback "ding" when pressing the menu?

anyone got a shortcut to start mtp without taking cable out and in?
I can't get MTP back at all, I tried to do a factory reset and uninstall lord but nothing works.
Also tried using the "kies saver"from Samsung apps but it wouldn't work either.
Can someone please help me

You mean you are not able to see the tab in the computer after connecting it or the MTP screen is not displayed on the tab?
FYI :
After the latest update MTP screen is shown only when some file operations are going on. Not always when the it is connected to the computer as earlier.

Turn USB Debugging off. I have the Galaxy S 2 on Sprint and it has a terrible habit of turning it on by itself, which disables MTP mode. Not sure where in Honeycomb the setting is, but on my phone it is under settings - applications - development.
Uncheck that and problem solved I bet.

On the tab.
But when I want to update the tab I'll get a message that says "unable to convert to update mode".
and I can only transfer small images otherwise it shuts down (kies)

I bought a USB connecyion kit and use a small USB stick. I also use it for backing up data so that when I do a hard reset on my Tab I ca njust plug the USB stick in and restore all data using Titanium Backup.

Any way to force USB transfer mode?

Hello to all!
This is my first post at xda so good day to you all I'm an Android dev and a lurker for some time, and now it's time to speak up since I've bought myself my own SGS2 which I already rooted and heavily modified.
My question is: I have a Kia Ceed and I can't make the Galaxy S2 to work with it as a source of music. The car's stereo isn't recognized as a PC so I can't turn on the USB transfer mode. Is there any way to force the phone to turn on the USB transfer mode regardless of what's it's connected to?
Thanks
Marcel

Have you tried...
settings > wireless and networks > usb utilities > connect storage to pc?
Nope, that does nothing. The car's lcd says 'reading' but nothing happens on the phone.

In that case, I think you might be stuck with having your music on your SD card and using a card reader!
Nope, if you are using Stock ROM, it does not use a standard USB ATAPI driver.
CM7 has a USB Storage mode which when turned on, should work. Since it uses a standard USB ATAPI driver.
try settings\ applications \ development \ click usb debugging.

As I mentioned, i'm a dev, so USB debuging is constantly on.

Thanks. I'm not sure if I'm ready to jump in the CyanogenMod bandwagon just yet, especially since it's still in it's early stages. But that's a solution!

The idea is to reduce te number of devices, not to multiply it.

A card reader on your car keyring is hardly increasing the number of devices! Just offering a suggestion.
Before going to cm7, i'm pretty sure i had to turn debugging off to get the usb to work.

You do, but it tells you that when you turn USB storage on.
I have also same car model (ceed) and also same phone (s2). So Cm7 really does the job? Can anybody confirm? Or is there any other solution that car stereo could recognize sd cards on the phone?

Mass Storage USB Mode

Is there anyway to get the Note to go into USB Mass Storage Mode?
Lol ran into this earlier..settings then wireless and networking u enable us mass storage from there...awkward place for it..lol
Sent from my awesome GALAXY NOTE..
Go to settings-development-enable USB debugging.
Next time you plug in your phone to the computer you will get an option in the notification bar asking you if you want to enable mass storage or not. Click it and select enable mass storage and Voila!!

[Q] Tablet won't mount via USB MTP or PTP.

Hello guys,
first let me say that while I may be a noob to the forum I am not a noob to the search features and I used it extensively before making this post. However, the problem I have still remains.
My tablet will charge when connected to the PC, but the USB MTP options do not start on the tablet when plugged in. I have tried all of the suggestions, such as, uninstalling the USB drivers on my PC and reinstalling. I have also checked the advanced storage settings on the tablet and made sure that connection as MTP is checked.
I believe this started happening after I rooted my tablet using this method: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1474971 But, I'm not sure if that's the issue.
Any ideas???
Any help you guys can give me would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance.

Note: Currently running Stock ICS 4.0.4, Kernel 3.1.10, Build IMM76.UELP
No one has had this issue?
Depending on what I've done last. In settings under developers options. I've left the usb debugging box checked or unchecked and when I switch it from one to the other the tab gets recognized.
Try unchecking usb debugging. You'll need to be disconnected from the PC to uncheck it.
Please don't flame me if I'm off base here. I'm just trying to help with my old man memory.

Thanks for your reply, I appreciate it...but I've already tried that a few times...
not having this fixed is getting frustrating!
Update
ok...So I've tried a couple of other ICS deodexed roms and I still have the same issue...The MTP connectivity will not start on the tablet...
Could this be hardware issue?
Not sure on stock ICS,I hated it and flashed cm10 with pershoot kernel,after that I had the same problem as yu,try Settings>storage>three dots on top right corner of screen>USB computer connection>enable media device....worked for me,I also had the debugger checked off....Or if that isnt it,Bad usb cable??? (EDIT) No go for me ethier,I can only mount the PTP part,not the USB storage
Thanks for your input foxcartman, but I already tried that and it still doesn't work.
more troubleshooting...
ok...so I've tried some more trobleshooting...
I have an HDMI adapter, which works just fine.
I've also tried an SD card adapter and the USB cable adapter, the tablet recognizes both but it does not read any data. ie: the pictures I had on the SD card.
I'm waiting to get another USB cable to see if that's the issue and I'll report back.
Thank you, my new lord & saviour

[Q] After CM10, tablet won't appear in windows explorer?

Hi all.
I'm stuck. Prior to rooting/installing CM10, my 7510 was visible in Windows Explorer and I could drag/drop files to it. After rooting/CM10, I plug it in, the PC seems to know it's a 7510, but nothing ever appears in Windows Explorer.
I'm guessing this is pretty basic, but I'm not sure what I'm missing. There used to be a Samsung app (kies perhaps) that would pop up when I plugged in the cable. This isn't on the tablet anymore after CM10. I looked around for it, didn't find a device version, just the desktop version, which didn't do anything for me.
Any thoughts?
Much appreciated!
Chris
