Hey Guys,
I just flashed to CM9 on my LG C800 and its working amazingly I cant believe I didn't look this up sooner.
Here is my problem
My computer wont recognize my phone when it is setup as a Mass Storage Device (Yes I'm click Turn on USB storage).
Normally I never needed any drivers for this before but just to make sure I installed the ones from LG and to my surprise no luck.
I can use USB if its as a camera or a media device (Not useful for me)
I flashed cm-9-20121125-NIGHTLY-c800
Currently Running
Windows 7 Pro x64 SP1 (not a virtual machine)
It keeps trying to install "MTP USB device"
If anyone has any idea I would appreciate it, I've looked in the original thread for any posts but I haven't found much of anything.

I think your map is turned upside down. We don't have sd card slots, much less UMS.

Thanks for the quick response, but my phone does have a microSD card slot and I've used it as a mass storage device when it was using the stock firmware.
I found this thread that says some phones lack the mass storage support
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1389375
I'm not sure if this is still outdated or not? Anyone with a C800 that has CM9 having this problem or not having this problem?
I also flashed this 4/29 ICS package
Problem Solved!!!

That was my attempt at humor. This is the HTC Droid DNA forum. We cannot help you here as you have a different device.
If I were you, I would ask here:

Hi,
I've been trying to upgrade my Hero to the latest ROM from Orange UK but have run into problems...
I've tried as many solutions posted on the web as possible but to no avail...I'm starting to think I've got a dud phone.
I'm running Vista SP2 32bit...downloaded Sync and Drivers from HTC website. When plugged into PC it says something like USB device has malfunctioned and is not recognised.
An icon appears in notification bar saying HTC sync, but when clicked it says HTC sync cannot be found on your computer.
It appears in device manager as "Unknown Device" and if I try to update the software to the HTC drivers it has an error and says make sure it's designed for windows 32 bit or something along those lines.
I've tried on 4 different PC's with 5 different cables, all to no avail with the same outcome.
I've used a friends HTC (not Hero but runs android) and that was recognised straight away.
Am I missing something or am I right in thinking the phone is buggered and I need a warranty claim or something?
Many thanks for any help!
Forgot to mention - is there any way to update the ROM not through a PC? For example can I put it on the SD card then transfer across?
Thanks
Does it make a difference when you have USB debugging activated?
Settings --> Applications --> Development --> USB debugging.
Unfortunately not, I've tried it both on and off!

Follow BTDAG's guide linked in my signature. Download flashrec and amon-ra recovery, put onto SD and see if you can install.
This doesn't solve your original issue though, but will allow you to flash custom ROM's.

The sdcard is the built-in 16gb storage.
In the guide you will see external sdcard too, that's the optional card
which is a removable one.
so just to clarify i don't need a SDcard to root if im following the guide that's stickied?

Looks like you are not using the Samsung Unified USB driver.
Try this one, this is what I use.
Here is the Samsung Unified USB driver: http://api.viglink.com/api/click?for...13196871580881
Be sure to uninstall kies if it's installed and uninstall any other samsung usb driver,
then reboot windows before installing the unified samsung drivers.
Good Luck!

Do you have the newest KIES installed? I think I read in another thread where someone else experienced this same problem and it finally got corrected when they installed the newest version on their PC.

I have installed Samsung USB Drivers manually and also tried Kies to install the newest drivers, but my Samsung Galaxy S3 still isn't recognized by my computer. What can I do?
EDIT: It only works sometimes, so when I plug it out and in like 10 times, maybe I'm lucky and it will connect once.

I have the same problem. My VSGS3 works with my W8 laptop but not my W7 desktop (at all). The only thing I can assume that it would be is MTP issues with Truecrypt (my desktop is encrypted). I cannot get it to work at all.
take a look at this thread...

Really???? S3 Not Recognized?
Maybe I missed something in this thread but is this really the case??? The S3 cannot be recognized as a USB storage device by Windows? I accidentally left my SD card out and now have videos I need to transfer to PC, but cannot via email or any other means I can find. Anybody have a solution? I have installed the Samsung drivers but still not recognized . . . HELP!!!

No USB storage for GS3 internal memory.

You can use MTP mode to copy the files to the computer.
The device will appear with a phone-logo in 'My Computer'
Just plug Samsung USB cable into USB port on a PC with the Samsung USB drivers installed and cut and paste as many GB as you want .SD Phone or EXT SD card via Windows Explorer as normal .

This problem is quite depressing Has a restore fixed it for anyone?
I use mac OSX and after searching for a month or so, I couldnt find a solution to connect via USB. So now I use 'Air Droid' app from Play Store. Its pretty good and simple!! Plus, you can do alot more stuff like send or read SMS from PC.. Dont need to connect via USB anymore
I found that installing that rootkit installed the drivers to connect via USB - didnt root it just installed it for the drivers. THANKS!
I am having the same problem.
My Galaxy S3 charges when connected to computer via USB.
But is not detected in USB Debugging or regular mode.
Which windows version are u using. Try installing pdanet.exe on ur pc

You must know what windows you use, 32 bit or 64 bit? Download Kies through Samsung website, make sure got right software.

If you are using x64 Windows 7 this will EXE file can be found here:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Samsung\Kies\USB Driver\SAMSUNG_USB_Driver_for_Mobile_Phones.exe
back this up and then you can remove KIES. This is all you need to have your phone connected without ever really needing KIES.
Or you can use the driver provided by the TOOLKIT that MSKIP has designed (thanks - love it).
Cheers,

nothing has worked for me. I have not tried the toolkit but I installed drivers from the TeamEpic's easy root as described by QBKing77 and those have not worked since I installed twrp
One more to this incredible situation :angel:
experienced the same on my win7 64 bit. I removed it on the faulty usb port to another one and then luckily the driver installation went fine. Weird but worked.

Hello All,
I got my new Galaxy S II yesterday and it came with ICS. I am trying to connect the phone on to the PC as Mass Storage - but as soon as I connect my phone, my PC (Which runs on XP) says "USB Device not recognized". I tried USB Debugging, enabling Mass storage under Settings->More->USB utilities etc. Nothing works. I even tried with a different cable - no luck. Can anyone help me to fix this issue? Thanks a lot.
Read this -
http://www.jayceooi.com/2012/03/14/...storage-on-android-4-0-ics-samsung-galaxy-s2/
USB mass storage was removed by default in the ICS upgrade. Now the S2 uses MTP, similar to the Galaxy Nexus. Windows 7, Ubuntu & OS X can read it, but XP doesn't have MTP functionality built in. I guess it can be enabled though, don't know how. In any case, USB mass storage is still accessible, follow the link.

Wrong, user Cool_fury knows too
Hi,
MTP and PTP are full of problems... so I want to have the old reliable USB Massive Storage (UMS) enabled in this phone, Is there any ROM with this feature?
I'm with stock and I would prefer not to unlock the boot loader unless I can get that feature with a ROM.
I tried this app with no success
I want any PC to detect my phone as a USB flashdrive containing only the sdcard files, not any partitions like system or data or such.
thanks

Nope. UMS is dead as far as Google is concerned.
what do you mean by that? I know some ICS ROMs with UMS (but for other phones) so it's no dead dead dead and doing a quick search there are some people using ums un Jelly bean
What I mean is, UMS support isn't the way google wants people to do things.
It's a kludge when google wants phone memory not be segmented for apps vs media and such.
I've found MTP works very well on this phone compared to others i've owned.
It's a partitioning issue on any phone that comes with ICS natively.
mmm may be I wasn't clear about that, sorry,
I only want any PC to detect my phone as a USB flashdrive containing only the sdcard files, not any partitions like system or data or such.
And we are saying it isn't going to happen. What trouble are you having with mtp? Maybe we can help.
Ok, thanks, my problem is the following
I have 3 windows machines and in all of them the following happened
> I connected the LGOG to the pc and selected the pc software option in the phone
> Installed the LG software
> The LG software Drive disappeared from "Computer" (as expected I suppose)
> The phone-drive never showed in Computer
> I unplugged the phone and plugged again and selected MTP
> The phone-drive never showed in Computer either
In one of the PCs I got an error while installing the MTP driver, don't know how to solve that, if I try to reinstall the LG software the LG software driver disappears
Also I can't copy files to my phone if I don´t have Administrative access to the PC... that's main the reason I want UMS
Uh oh.
So, if I understand correctly, I'm going to need to install CM in order to use my phone as a thumbdrive.
While I have no problems using MTP, the INSANELY SLOW TRANSFERS are basically going to force me to find another solution.
Great phone, but 2MB/sec on a standard USB 2.0 port just isn't working.
More research, it appears that I'll need to install an FTP server on my phone, or use a wireless data sharing app (sadly not possible in my case as my wireless network is firewall-external to my wired one).
