[Q]How to enable USB Storage on JellyBAM 3.0.0 - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'am using JellyBam for quiet a while, and cant use the USB storage option other way then through the recovery.
At first I thought its a bug, but i'ts now the 3.0.0 STABLE version, and still when I plug the phone to my PC, the USB Storage option doesn't pop up.
Am I doing it wrong or something, or is it really impossible to mount USB storage through this rom?

What u already tried?
Did u activate "USB debugging" in settings>dev?
Did u flash another kernel?
What the main thread of JellyBam says, did u already ask there?

Hi Vad88,
As Hannibal226 said, you should be posting this in the main Jelly Bam thread here.
Here, many doubts will be posted mainly on the technical issues not on specific to some Custom ROMs.
BTW, here is the solution for your question.
Goto--> Settings--->Storage-->Menu(press this on your phone),
then a popup shows up saying, "USB computer Connection", select that, in that link, you'll get some options.
There you need to tick on "Mass Storage".
That's it, you are done. now whenever you connect your mobile to computer, a notification shows up, USB storage as we used to see in Stock ROM. From there you can drive yourself for connecting the mobile to system & explore the phone storage contents.
Regards,
Hereticnine.

hereticnine I LOVE YOU
really I will have your children

I cant ask in the main JellyBam tread because its in the development forum which I cant write in, because I have less then 10 posts, I searched there and couldn't find anything.
Thanks hereticnine, I followed your instructions and it works!
Appreciate the responses! :good:

JellyBAM has so many options combined, a quick thing like this can quickly become quite the scavenger hunt.
Even though this post is old, google still uses it to help people like me.

[Q] After flash to TNTlite 4.4, no longer can connect PC to gTab

With apologies to Roebeet, who provided a response to an earlier inquiry about this - - but I couldn't interpret what to do - I am posting here to see if anyone who has flashed to TNTlite 4.4 has had a problem with connecting their PC to the gTab and being able to then see the sdcard drive and contents. When I connect now, the tab shows a "USB Connected" and then a USB Debugging Connected" message, but nothing can be seen on the PC, except, a removable disk (F and when that is hilighted the message "please insert a disk into drive F" shows up.
Any advice, reference to a thread that addresses this, or other guidance would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
Pinckneyite,
This is a new one to me and I read the forums pretty thoroughly.
Since the drivers that communicate to the PC are built in, the only
suggestion I can think of is to re-flash the ROM and see if it comes
up.
If not, then I would re-flash back to stock
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=861950
and see if it works there. Along the way, you may need
to load CWM (ClockWorkMod) in case you need to clear/wipe, etc.
Do some loading and testing the let us know what you find out.

It doesn't automatically mount on your PC. You have to pull down the notifications menu and select "USB Connected." That will give you a dialog that will allow you to "Activate" USB file transfer.

Ahhh. That worked. Guess I hadn't even looked there. Thanks!
You have no idea how long I spent trying to figure that out when I had that problem... ;-)

Well maybe, then, you know what the "USB debugging" option on that notifications menu means? I see it there as an option to turn it off or on. Leaving it on seems to do nothing to handling file transfers, etc. What is it for? Thanks.
USB Debugging is a development tool. It's not necessary for average daily functions but a few apps out there require it. It won't hurt to just leave it on.
TNT (Lite) is different thatn AOSP based mods, that's correct - you just have to click on the "!" icon.

[Q] BETA ICS 4.0.X - Team DRH: MTP X UMS

Hi guys
I have ICS 4.0.4 from Team DRH (1.2) and I like to ask about the way that Gtab works over USB on computer.
Seems like there is no more the option "USB MASS STORAGE". It only works as MTP device.
Well, over here this "MTP device" show like a camera. In "My Computer" there is a icon and when I open, I can see "internal storage" from Gtab. The thing is, when I copy stuff, the process is very slow. And I can not access "internal storage" from others programs, like winrar.
Is possible to make an option like that, in other thread, from nexus one?

It is probably possible, but for now we're working on getting a stable rom/kernel built. Things like that would be future plans.
Ok. Thank you for the atention.
Well, this thing of MTP is boring, but the rom is amazing. Great work.
Sorry for bad english!
one thing is just use the usb connection in CWM. I did that for a long time.
It is true. Thank you!
In fact, there is only one time when I need a great copy of data to the tablet: Just to restore the things that I keep in Gtab e that I made backup before instal the rom (the process require to format storage).
This feature would be great, but we can survive without...
Thanks!

Paranoid android vs mass storage problem

Hi there,
I am new here and realize I first have to search the forum for the problem i encounter , I did that, could not find the exact problem.
One mentioned slow copying but it was resolved after someone advised him to use a 2.0 usb port.
But that's not the issue in my case
I installed latest paranoid android rom as the second rom in the dualboot option from siyah kernel.
I followed all the instructions to install it correctly.
When i connect phone to pc to copy file the pc hangs, that means, the program which is doing the copying hangs, (both total commander as well as windows file explorer) have to close it with task manager, then when I browse the phone I see the file i tried to copy is present with the original size, but its corrupted, its only size being reserved for the file.
It is not an usb port problem, because when i boot the phone to my first rom (simplistic disaster) i can copy files to the phone, and its fast.
anyone have this problem or know a solution i would be be grateful, because I like the rom, but if I cannot copy files to it it goes down the trunk.
yours sincerely
Ronald
Put out your microsd and connect it directly to pc, works fine? If not it's card issue. Format could help in this case.

Thanks for your response, I did not try that before allthough im pretty sure its not the solution, because if it were the case i would have the same problem with the other rom booted.
But to not make a fool out of myself i tried it anyway s, and like i anticipated: no problems with the sdcard, the problem also occurs when i copy to the internal sd card, so its most likely some combination of the paranoid android rom with other issues .
Hard to say anything wise... I would try to find answer in rom specific thread. Hope you will solve it. Good luck!

He said nothing of posting in the thread. He said you should try to find the answer in that thread.
The 10 post rule is there to (hopefully) prevent people from posting random threads in development fora. Doesn't seem to help much though.
Hello
First, excuse for my english. I'm french, and like you know, we are the worst of the world in foreign language (thanks google Trad).
Two, thanks to this ROM, she's great, the best Rom i test since i've my SGII.
So, I'm here because i've a problem (surprised?). When i copy my music Folder (4,5Go), I've a first error message who tell that a sing have a wrong format (MP3). It's not really a problem, because I can ignore it and let the copy continue. But after that, I've a second error message for another file. This time, the message tell me that the phone not respond (sorry, I try to translate Win7, in french: "le périphérique ne répond plus") and i have to stop all the copy or ignore this file. If I ignore, I've the same problem for the following files, and all my folders are empty.
This problem appear with or not the debug mode.
Can you help me? Sorry if the question have been already ask, i've search all this afternoon (I live in Reunion Island, actually it's 5:00pm) and i don't find any answer.
Thanks a lot.

The problem you're having is normal at least for now, and I've experienced it many times.
These are my observations and how I've solved the issue in different occasions:
Observations:
- this issue occur randomly
- it's more common if your computer has been hibernated too many times without rebooting
- it's also common if an app on your phone is also trying to access your storage simultaneously.
Solutions:
- stop the copying process, and reconnect your device to the pc.
- reboot your Pc
- copy your files via Wi-Fi using apps - reboot to recovery, connect your phone to your Pc and mount your device as usb (under mount option in recovery) and copy your files.
Note:
-The solutions listed above are not dependent on each other, and one of them will sure get the job done till mass storage mode is fixed in the Rom.

Hello,
I try to connect my Gs this morning like you tell me. But it doesn't work.
Firts, i boot my PC after a good night. I re-boot my phone and after that i connect it to my PC.
The same error appear at the begining of the copy.
So, i try to mount my USB storage (i've no Wify to my job so i can't test this solution). The PC detect my phone (it was in the peripheral equipment, but the SD doesn't appear in the explorer.
I'll try to change the kernel, i would like to flash Siyah. If i'm lucky, maybe it will work. Which siyah's version is compatible with PARANOID. I maybe understand there a problem the beta6.

Sorry for not clarifying the kernel part.
I use Siyah and mounting usb in recovery works perfectly well.
Siyah 3.5.2 and above are compatible but I always recommend 4.0.1

No problem, thanks you. i'll flash Syiah this week
At home, i try to transfert files with airdroid apk and it works but this soft not allow to transfert several selected files or folders.
Thanks you again for your help.
Hello,
Just to tell you about my problem. With Siyah I could copy all my folders in Recovery mode. I hope the problem will be resolverd with the next PA's version.
Thanks again.

SO i read now its a common problem with the rom , i did not find that information yet, I now using the cynogenmod 9 from july because i was hoping to solve the mass storgage issue and guess what, the same problem, so now i know its not paranoid android related but a cynogen mod issue.
I actually have a new problem since i have a new adsl modem, cyanogen mod does not have a wps option to connect to a wifi router, the modem i have wont connect with any android device the regulary way by typing the wep password wich worked fine with other devices like ps3,TV and a laptop, we have 3 android devices (2x s2 and 1x 10.1 tablet) and all only can connect with the wps option wich unfortunally is missing in cyanogen mod
But I dont see this as a rom problem, only as a missing feature.

[Q] [ROM 4.2.2] JELLYBAM [v6.4.0] [MiXED - PARANOID - AOKP - CM10.1 - CARBON]

Switch to USB Mass Storage Mode as default - Could anyone kindly teach me how to do it at this new rom ? only connected as MTP media which is not user-friendly when I copy videos to external sd card.

I wonder why, is it because he is accused of taking element from other roms again? I say who cares, his latest release is so perfect on S2, the roms that may accuse him have issues with their roms, his rom has no issue, therefore that is different enough for me!
He has his own website anyway: http://www.modmydroid.net/jellybam/

What a pity then, because either way, his 6.4 rom is more stable than those roms that he has incorporated features from.
There are certainly some elements of this "open" development community I do not comprehend that's for sure! Glad I'm a user and not a rom compiler!

Which HBOOT version are you on? I suppose ICS. Is that correct? If yes, follow instructions on http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=40241468&postcount=214. Those worked for me. Make sure the hTC drivers are latest with MTP driver installed and you have full root using flar2's method : http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2136815.
One more thing, Step 5 in ckpv5's guide is very important. This will not work if you are running Multi Mount app from App Drawer. You have to add Multi Mount Widget on desktop and click that widget to mount your SD card.

Hes pointing out that this forum has rules, you have agreed to obey them, and you right now broke first of them (and its first, because it makes sense, not because its bull****), youre most likely here just to solve this problem and not participate any further, so you dont care if you and others like you flood forum with ten topics regarding EXACTLY same problem. So use that search button, its easy. Or read some general android changelogs before complaining about USB MASS STORAGE missing (why these 3 words in capitals, its not acronym, only USB is...)
+ at least try to type name of thread in english
