[Q] Mass Storage Mode don't work anymore - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
I change my rom passing from Cyanogen 9 to Smasung rom 4.1 leaked and restore Cyanogen after one week. And recently, I see that when I plug my phone on my PC in USB, I've got any notification anymore which could permit me to enable usb mode. There is a way to restore it?
Ideally, trying to restore it without a hard reset?
Thanks.

did you try to make a backup of your contacts on your SD card and do a factory reset of the phone. It might be some setting. It happened to me couple of times on my HTC while working with the HTC stock ROM.
If it didn't work you might try to follow this guide

I am having the same issues. I have 2 of these phones that are doing the same thing. Both have been rooted but NO new ROMS have been downloaded. Both phones worked fine with the stock USB cable until 2 days ago & I haven't been able to get either to be recognized by 2 seperate computers. One is Win 7 32bit, the other is XP. I can get them to show 2 portable drives; however, when I click on either, or try to drag & drop in them, it tells me to insert a disk.About to go ape crappers! HELP!
I have this exact same problem on my Infuse: USB port works for charging but the computer doesn't recognize it and the device acts as if I plugged it into a USB -> AC power adapter, and when I bring up the camera it's just a black screen and controls that don't do anything. I just tried resetting to factory defaults, even rooted it and flashed to another ROM (ZEUS) and it's still having the same problems. I'm just wondering whether it's a hardware or software problem. Anybody figured out a fix yet?

Try to connect your device in Mass storage mode instead of MTP.
Goto Settings - Storage, Press menu button, select USB computer connection - enable Mass storage.
Now connect your phone to pc and feel the difference.

Fantastic mate thanks a lot for that!

any possible way to get this tablet up and running?

GTP7510MAYXAR wont connect to pc, usb not recognized. In odin mode it does the same. Pc doesnt have bluetooth either.
When inserting a usb female connector it does say usb connection, but the usb flash drives did not show. Tablet
also charges healthy.
I want to root this, install clockwork recovery, flash rom to jb 4.2.2, but without the help of that pc i am stuck on 4.04 stock.
Bought this from someone so no previous exp with this device.
Any way to root and install recovery with tablet alone itself?
Thank you for your time:laugh:
Maybe I'm underestimating your experience, but you can try this to see whether USB storage works:
Go to Settings -> Storage -> the 3-lined menu button at the top right corner -> USB PC connection -> Media device (MTP)
I wish this can help. if you have further questions we are here to help at any time.
Good luck!

Ofcourse i tried it hihi:highfive:
But i am starting to think its faulty hardware as no one has any idea about the issue
I actually bought mine in the exact same condition. It would not work on usb no matter what i did also a few other 'bugs' I thought it was a faulty cable but it turned out to be corrupted files on the rom.
Long story short, reatoring the tab to factory via ODIN fixed everything.

Well, you could use mobile ODIN or Rom Manager. However, you need to be able to pull the backup you're going to make before you install that custom rom off of the device. Using USB is a simple way of doing that. It's possible to get it off over WiFi, but you really should fix the USB.

Upgrade i717 from ICS without USB???

I am running the official release ICS from AT&T. The phone is rooted and carrier unlocked.
I cannot get my or any other computer I have tried to recognize the phone via USB connection.
ICS is running incredibly slow and getting increasingly unstable. I would like to upgrade to a stable release of Jelly Bean but have not found a way to do so since I cannot get the device recognized on the PC.
Note: My USB port failed a while back and I had to replace it with a new one I purchased on eBay. It is possible that the new port is not working for data though it is working for charging. The computer always comes up with an error saying the device malfunctioned though it does recognize something was plugged into the USB.
Is there a way to upgrade the OS to JB by downloading and installing directly on the phone rather than via USB?
I can get to the CWM Recovery v5.5.0.4 screen, is there an update I can apply from there or phone application based?
I will eventually try replacing the USB port again seeing as my computer sees other Samsung devices properly and I know the drivers are installed correctly but for now I need to get this phone a bit more stable.
Thanks.
I would update your recovery from cwm to twrp. You can find twrp recovery in the original android section. Then download one of the many JB roms available and use twrp to flash it!
Then get your usb port replaced.
You can try downloading the rom from your phones browser. It might take a while. Also update your recovery to twrp.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda app-developers app
You can always download the ROMs with your computer and then transfer them to your microSD card with an adapter. You could also bluetooth them to your phone.

installing twrp/cyanogenmod from SD card?

Hey guys I have a Samsung galaxy core that had android 4.4.4 and i managed to screw it up and now unable to reformat it from stock bootloader.. It will say it formatted and reboot into the android setup wizard but unable to finish setup because of crashes. (Hangouts, setup wizard, and keyguard all stop working) so I can't access home screen, settings, call/txt nadda.
So because of that, none of the solutions I've found work for my case (kies, adb sideload, installing twrp from store)..etc because it's hard to do any of that when it's impossible for me to enable usb debugging, changge usb to MTP, or root my phone. (Did root with kingo before I screwed things up, not sure if still rooted since I wiped it with stock bootloader.. but pretty sure usb debugging isn't enabled, and MTP doesn't seem to be working since windows can't install the driver's and kies won't detect it.
So anyway, I think my options are limited.. but I have an idea but wanted to ask here first.. I noticed in the stock bootloader there is option to install from external storage.. and I have another android phone that works.. so is there way I can put the SD card from my "bricked" phone in the working phone and install twrp and cyanogen mod on it and put it back in the bricked phone and install from that? maybe there is already a tutorial out there?
