I sent my phone in for repairs since it wouldnt boot anymore (the product of a botched KDZ update by me). LG managed to fix it and its been working fine until I got home and found that USB debugging and USB mounting has disappeared... o_0 I couldnt find the little android icons on the notification bar when I connect it to any computer. The LG PC suite couldnt find the phone. and even though I have USB debugging or Mass Storage only set to on, I cant find the icons or the options that normally were there at the notification bar...
On a sidenote: The error "The application LGMITS Service (process com.lge.lgmits) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again." pops up once in a while... I dont even know what application that is... I havent opened anything like that. o_0
Is this LG's way of telling me that I shouldnt mess with my phone anymore? I was planning to install the JIT enabler and custom recovery at least and then install apps to my sd.
Or is something still wrong with my phone? I'm going to call them up tomorrow to ask about this but I would like to ask the community's opnion too...

I haven't english on my phone so, maybe I give you not exactly valid information and may be this menu disappeared as well.
So go to home desktop, press menu button, go to application --> developemnt --> USB Debbuging. Is there this menu?
The LGMITS force close was a bug in firmware version 10a for some Optimus One users. Upgrade to 10c removed the problem.
Correct me if I am wrong...
You seem to mean the PC cannot detect your phone.
So you dont see the debugging or usb connected icon on your phone notifications.
But you activated them in Settings. So the options are there but it just doesn't work?
Was at least an unknown usb device detected by the PC?
Firstly, though unlikely might want to check if its the usb cable itself the problem.
Connect the cable from PC to another phone...see if it detects a connection
or try a spare cable if you have one with your Optimus One and PC
If cable is not the problem,
and there is totally no detection of usb connection on PC and phone, you might want to check with LG...
USB Debugging is set to on... That part I know how to do but I remember when I set USB debugging and Mass Storage on, there will be 2 icons on the notification bar when you plug them in to a computer (regardless if PC or mac). An Android icon which looks like it has spider limbs and I forgot what the other one was... And in order to set them on or off, you just had to drag the notification bar down and click Mass Storage. That brings you to a screen where the Android mascot has a USB cable for an arm... I dont see these icons anymore.
The PC saw a USB device when I plugged it in... And it even said something about an LG device. But I still cant access the SD card from my PC or Mac without Mass Storage on... I dont have another phone that can use the data cable but the phone charges with it on the PC/Mac/ wall charger.
also: I looked into the internal menu and it says I have SW Version Info: LG-P500-V10b. Not 10a... and how do I upgrade this if my phone is inaccessible? =c Even the PC suite says that the device isnt responding...
You can delete LGMITS.APK and dex in System/App
for detect phone try turn off mass storage while cable is unplug then connect it to PC again
10A = NEU zone
10B = asian zone
10C i found both NEU and SEA
all rom use same kernel version only interface/language is differ
have you solved this sir??
i have the same problem
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).
Hello there.
It seems this problem is quite common, from the fist time I plug the device in MTP mode, no alteration I do on the phone using android will reflect on the PC, for example, if I plug the phone for the first time after a boot and delete a file using android, it will still show on PC, it doesn't matter if I refresh the folder or even change the USB port. I have to reboot the phone to get it working again. It seems that when you plug the phone on the PC it creates a 'cache' that never gets refreshed.
I would like to know if there's a way to refresh such 'cache' or other solution to this, perhaps by allowing the phone to be seen as a fully featured mass storage device. My phone is rooted. Perhaps there's even a patch or something. My device is a Moto G Dual, Android 4.3.
I don't want to use Wi-Fi or Bluetooth. I recharge my phone on the PC and I would like to also use the connection to transfer files without having to reboot my phone.
If I rename a file for example (using android), so it shows the old name on the PC, it's impossible to access it, even by accessing the exact path (both the old or new) manually.
Any ideas?
Thank you in advance.
Hey guys.
I have Samsung galaxy ace 5839i (stock for 5830i) and I am using it for a few years, but this problem came for the first time.
Always, when I try to connect my mobile to pc using cable, it just won't connect, it won't even show me the notification of connecting.
Before this problem, I connected it to fedora linux and it was succesful, but now? It won't show me that USB sign even in windows.
Any help?
Thanks in advance
@LiQuDiAk, basically s5839i and s5830 i are identical in many areas ,, few questions though,, did you root your device or you are on android 2.3.6 stock version / kernel 2.6.35.7 ?
when you are in your windows device manager ( while you are connected , do you see any exclamation / question marks in front of the corresponding driver), you can always uninstall your old driver, reboot , then try compiled driver in attachment , and reboot to take proper effect in your registry (tested on win xp/7 -32bit) . Also check your device settings>Application>Development > USB Debugging and make sure the option is checked. now lets check your debugging mode through ADB command and see if your device is being recognized. download platform zip attachment, unzip it and put the folder someplace like your desktop. Now open your command prompt (cmd) through whatever means you are comfortable and change directory (cd) to the unzip folder or simply open your folder and drag/drop adb.exe into your CMD to be in the right place very fast. Then type "adb devices" without quotation marks and report for more troubleshooting .Assuming your Samsung cable is not faulty of course.
@ehsanotaku Yes i did root my phone on pheonix fire rom. No i do not see any. And debugging is checked, that was my first guess why it was causing this. I was checking, whether my device is recognized in linux (only available OS in present) and it was NOT, but the cable is not faulty, because it was charging my phone... but i will do recognize process on windows, hope it will get better. But thanks so far!
so, the driver didnt help, but the adb devices got me something long which i do not completely understand (i am a girl and not IT) so...

off topic though, gender discrimination is prejudice,, sorry if you are offended . Learning from each other despite your gender,does not undermine your knowledge EVER mate You might find it hard to believe, but I am quite novice in android stuff myself ( learning a great deal from some female members though ).
Back to topic at hand now,,,So let Perfectly Clear take away the time-consuming tasks and fix some stuff ..1. so you can not access your sdcard's content from either systems,, even if you try some live bootable Ubuntu disk/flash into your system and boot it up,, you can't access the mount drive content , right?
2. screenshot of your device manger while you are connected always help mate
3. those long streams of numbers and words is supposed to be your device name , it means your device is communicating with your pc ( /sdcard/ should not be corrupted). You can push (copy ) some vital files to your device with following command :
again same path >> put some file into your desktop (drag/drop to cmd)
i.e: "adb push C:\Users\ehsanotaku\Desktop\test.txt /sdcard/"
back to your device and check root of your files with whatever file explorer you got to approve the theory
4. forgot to ask , just to be on the safe side your device is not in boot loop process, stuck on samsung splash screen or something like that, right?
okay, thanks!
1. I cannot access it trough USB to mobile way, but from SD card adapter, yeah I can (it is just the weird feeling, when you always have to put out your sd and do it that way, i would like to sort this out)
2. http://s1.postimg.org/nkta50u3x/Untitleddas.png I suppose the unknown device is my phone.
3. Just a question, my phone is not connected, i cannot access it and this doesn't help
4. Nope, it is working, i can access everything, just this connecting problem i have. anything else is running smoothly.
Let's say any of this will work, do you think flashing a stock rom will help? I am not sure, if this is problem of rom or not, so...
And maybe i wasn't clear (my bad if not) but when i plug the cable in my device and pc, pc will make this sound of new device found, but it wont show me anything, so my phone. It will charge, but it wont connect, it is behaving like it is on a charger and not connected to the phone.
@LiQuDiAk, Hasty actions are done in a hurry, sometimes without the necessary care or thought. Now let's not leap to any conclusion about your Android custom Rom and flashing back to stock. lets focus on your first most obvious problems,which is driver related.
You didn't declare your flavor of windows: i.e: Windows x86 based-PC;professional 7
Not so sure of your OS Name/Version and System Type, search "system information" in your search box.
Your task manger depicted ACPI x64 ( 64-bit system, no wonder previous 32-bit compatible didn't work out for you ).
Symptoms observed so far:
1. USB cable only charges ( remember your USB cable data line might be the culprit. Just in case of only charging,checking with another set recommended. Your USB port might be problem, some dirt or faulty data line, checking with another USP port doesn't heart though.
2. Windows recognizes something more (like in your case, struggling to find proper corresponding driver), but cannot see it as a Samsung android device (cannot allocate the installed USB drivers to the device).
-If you got Kies (Samsung proprietary software) installed on your PC, delete it with a descent uninstaller program such as CCleaner free version .Kies might cause driver conflict , use it as only last resort , if all drivers failed to communicate with s5830i device.
-Also Uninstall your previous given driver same way, now restart , back to system and grab set of universal Samsung Drivers from attachment .
3.Can't see your "USB connected" in Android notification bar, so you cant click on it and mount your storage data part while you are connected to your PC.
-Normally, when you plug in your Android device, Windows will recognize it as an MTP (Media Transfer Protocol) device and quietly mount it.
However, if you’ve ever attempted to unlock your device such as to install a new ROM or root it, then such miss behaviors might be expected occasionally .
Before i go for more troubleshooting , please provide a full screenshot from your "About Phone" page in your settings . I am quite curious about this phoenix Rom you have mentioned though . I am quite familiar with at least dozen of discontinued/ported projects, but never heard of such ported Rom from other models into s5830i .
Couple of solutions :
Navigate to your settings,Storage and touch the upper-right corner for the “USB computer connection” options, if you have this part available.
make sure “Media device (MTP)” is selected. ( if you have USB Utilities section or whatever added section in your custom settings go there . Selecting that will do the trick. If it does not, then you likely have a driver problem.
Open your device manager, Right click on your unrecognized device in question,choose update driver software, choose Browse my computer,find it through given x64 drivers in your package ,Restart. ( After a successful installation, restart your PC, you must have something like the picture in attachment ) .
Problem was not resolved, Uncheck your debugging option,power off your phone. Now hold Volume(+) + Home + Power for a couple of seconds simultaneously to get to your Samsung Recovery or your Clockwork Recovery, choose Reboot( might be some process/service in your background, which interfere with your Auto USB connected feature of your device. See if the problem is being resolved .
Problems have been persisting, we might need to format your SD card, but before that, insert it into your card reader, in your file explorer window choose Tools>Folder options>select view tab> tick your select hidden file.folders. Now copy all of your SD card's contents into some folder, safe inside your PC.
We can format your card through your clockwork mod recovery console, or some partition tools such as free mini partition wizard,,
problem still persist? let me know
Hey
After some rest with this, my mobile got it solved (dunno why, just once tried to do it and it works.)
So, thank you very much with your answers!!!!
And about that screenshots, I will PM you
But, really, thanks a lot, mate!!!!
My screen is absolutely dead, it was green and I could see a little bit, through the tint but the touch screen wasn't working. I should've used that time to backup all my stuff. Actually, I couldn't. but instead I tried to get it fixed. They said there was some "unsupported" error and it was because my phone was rooted. Didn't make sense to me because he said the screen came on and had that "unsupported" error.
Anyway I've tried the USB cable but I have a gesture password so it doesn't mount.
If I can open AirDroid, I'll even be able to see the screen on my PC, if someone knows a way to open an app. I am unauthorized on ADB though ...or maybe if there was a way to add an authorization key via adb push in CWM recovery, and then use [email protected] or adb to open airdroid!
I have booted to TWRP and mass storage should automatically start as I've heard but it didn't. I went to Download mode and I was able to flash Philz CWM and I tried to use screenshots of CWM online to get to mount USB storage but I couldn't. Please help me out!
I was able to get my dad's GS5 and I flashed Philz on it. I used it as a guide to navigate on my phone but the problem is that the mount USB storage option in Philz only mounts the micro SD card I have in the phone. Maybe if I remove it it will automatically mount sdcard0?
TWRP MTP doesn't work on my computer, so I will try another computer tomorrow. That might do the trick.
If you have access to Samsung smart dock for Note 2 you could be able access phone without working screen. All you need is usb mouse and hdmi cable and tv. With mouse attached normally screen is disabled because is no longer needed for touch input and that should allow for data retrieval. I think your phone has cover over usb connector and that may need to be removed for smart dock to work.
