Just upgraded from Razr Maxx HD to the Samsung S4 and am currently on the VRUAME7 version.
I want to be able to plug my s4 into the mini USB running from my radio deck in my car. I have rooted the phone. I have formatted my microSD card to FAT32 to be recognized by the deck. Now the only trouble I am having is getting the phone into Mass Storage mode. Is there any possibility to get this working currently? I have tried a few apps with no avail. I would really appreciate any input on this situation! I really do not want to use the AUX option.
Thanks in advanced!
Hmmm.... don't newer phones go into MTP or whatever? Your deck may not recognize it because of that. It was a PIA getting dolphin to recognize my GNex in fedora because if it.

Yes, that is my understanding of the newer Google phones. Maybe I am just out of luck until more development comes along for the newest OTA.
There is an app in the play store which tries to address this. Can't recall the name right now but I ran across it a couple weeks back. Since I don't need it I can say anything more about it but you might search there.

"SG USB Mass Storage Enabler" (can't post links because im a newb here)
This might be what you are thinking of? Unfortunately it says it is not supported on my version of the S4.
Do you have another plug in for your CD player? Like aux in? If you do than that would probably be the only way to do it as of right now. Only thing is it won't charge your phone but hey the gs4 has great battery life.

Yes, but as I mentioned in my original post I would rather not use the AUX. I specifically posted this in regards to playing through USB and in search of a way. I may have to do it, but I do not want to.

That's the one. Too bad about the compatibility problem. Looks like he has it on his radar. You might want to get in touch with the developer.

"Old changelog:
[1.3]
* Added untested support for Verizon's Galaxy S4 (SCH-I545) (Not working)"
Looks like you are correct. That would be my phone right there. I believe I will reach out to the dev.
Thanks for the input and replies thus far!

do we have usb host mode capabilities with the t-bolt? i would hate to buy another adapter like i did for my eris and then find out we have no host mode. i would like to be able to plug in a mini keyboard, a game controller, or even just a flash drive, but not without host mode. if we dont, any ideas on enabling it somehow in an ASOP rom maybe?
I have been asking the same question.. Our devs don't seem to like the idea very much.. I think it would be a major advancement..
You can plug a flash drive into the eris?
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA App
yea it would be awesome, and no you cant, it has no host mode the og droid does though, i think it has to be hardware enabled but you would assume there would be a way to emulate that with the phone
The hardware does in fact support host mode.. I believe most htc phones do... The kernel is the tricky part.. if any devs would like to help us out.. Please give a shout

Yes and no.
The Android 3.1 platform (also backported to Android 2.3.4) introduces Android Open Accessory support, which allows external USB hardware (an Android USB accessory) to interact with an Android-powered device in a special "accessory" mode.

The gingerbread leak we currently have is 2.3.4. Whether it's enabled already in that build or it will come later is something I don't know.
Any more movement on this? I wait with eager anticipation for the ability to connect a usb drive to my thunderbolt!
I am also in need of a kernel for my Thunderbolt. I could really use the USB Host functionality.
Ok so I just upgraded yesterday from the HTC inspire and I must say I'm liking the S3. Except for one thing, no usb mass storage mode? Duuuwwwhhhaaaatttt??? This is awful...just awful.. I work night shifts and play minecraft a lot at work
D) and alwayed used my inspire for transfering the save data on my work computer to my personal desktop at home... I NEED this FIXED.!! I have the 16GB sd card I pulled out of my inspire shoved in the S3's ext-sd slot and would love to know how to use it as a usb mass storage like I did on my inspire.. I have tried the easy ums app and it doesn't work :/ so here I am, humbly asking for help from you geniuses...

According to your signature you're in the wrong forum.
This is for the international i9300/i9300T
Easy UMS does not work on the kernels for the US-version since they don't include a necessary module.

You could use Wifi-based apps such as Samba Fileshare. It's easier to use since you don't actually have to plug the phone in the computer.

Yep. It's probably not that hard to implement but not being a kernel hackers myself I honestly don't know (I always need at least 2-3 attempts to even compile a configured/patched kernel right for my freaking servers...

goomanager is down right now.
Just download and flash the normal way
Post #5 in the maintenance thread in their forums says the following:
"Sorry for the outage.
Long story short, during the expansion of our lustre fs, the metadata for all files got nuked. Unfortunately, this is not something we can recover from. We're going to be contacting all developers to get this looked into and get files back online as soon as possible for everyone."

Since day one when i downloaded Goomanager (i also reinstalled it) after i rooted my phone with stock everything i could not use the browse compatible roms menu. It would always show up as no roms availble.
Why is that? What am i missing?
I know a lot of people are telling me just to find a rom here and flash it, but im more concerned with why this is happening and what i can do to fix it.
any help?
Thanks everyone!

ya, i saw the xda search led me here so i figured i'd try first.
but it doesnt seem like much help in the other forums either, i think their answer is "dont use goomanager, dl from xda and flash"
i understand that goo may not be ideal, but i wanna isolate and troublshoot the issue.
i dont see a lot or any on the s3 side, i was hoping it was more generic of an issue......
do u have any ideas?

Hmm... if you head over to goo.im you'll see under the "Browse roms be device" list that there is no mention of the SGH-i747. I'm guessing there is no dev using Goo for their ROMs on your particular model.
EDIT: After doing more research I see mentions of downloading ROMs for your phone via GooManager.. I'll keep looking around. Very strange.
Very interesting........ but my version is pretty much at&t. Do you know if they have it?
I should try asking other i747m users

Ok this is what I've gathered. i747(m) users appear to be using GooManager for installing TWRP/ROMs but downloading them elsewhere. After looking through Goo's list of devices I found the only GSIII listing to be for the International version (GT-i9300). AT&T (i747), T-Mobile (T999), Verizon (i535) and Sprint (L710) are not present in the list. Still strange but I don't think there is anyway around it, sorry!
Hmm I will have no issues if it applies to all not on list. But if they can access it. Then I'm back to square one.
Thanks for the find though! Very interesting.

I looked again, SGH-i747(m) is not in their list. But according to get.cm d2att is you're "codename" if you will. d2att is in the goo.im list. So your device is the d2att but now I'm back to not understanding why GooManager is showing no roms because clearly there are many. Maybe your build.prop needs d2att in it?
EDIT: And by "their list" I just mean the drop down box on their main page that says "Browse rom devices by:".
Hmmm that's what I'm afraid of.
Now I'm at a loss again.
How would that file, even change?

What does your "ro.product.device" say in build.prop? That's the part that should read d2att. You can always change it, reboot, try GooManager and if it doesn't work just put it back.
Threads I've read keep mentioning you need to be on the latest CWM not sure how this directly effects the whole d2att. Wish I had a GSIII to play with to figure out this puzzle... lol

Well...
So I was trying to find information on rooting a non activated SPH-710 (so no internet) and a video I was watching on YouTube showed a guy rooting
a SPH-710 and when he showed how to verify the version, he said I should have Android 4.0.4 and it should also show FF18.
So... when I checked my phone it had 4.0.4 and FH13.
So what the hell is up with that and what direction should I take now?
The reason I am trying to root the phone is to put the VK rom on it because I have the dreaded "charging paused - voltage to high" error message. I read somewhere on XDA that, that may fix the problem.
Your thoughts and advice is much appreciated.
Thank you,
John

I have not tried rooting it yet...
Most of the time I can not get Vista to see the phone. (or 7)
About one out of 40 tries will Kies or windows find the phone.
Actually Kies will see the phone but will not connect to it.
I need to get it going, I hate this ZTE piece of junk.
I ordered a usb port for it but did not know that (actually my wife ordered it)
it was a surface mount port. Out of luck there I guess. Looks too tiny for
me to deal with.
Thanks,

Ive had this problem ever since verizon updated me to 4.3
Im wanting to root my phone and install a custom rom and move it to straight talk but how can i safely do anything when my pc hardly ever recognizes my phone?
Ive tried the usb that came with my note 2, tried 2 other usb cables that came with s3's
Tried every usb port on the computer
tried uninstalling keis
uninstalling samsung driver
reinstalling driver
reinstalling keis
rebooting while plugged in
nothing works.
My pc recognizes every other phone i plug into it.... im so fedup with this.
Any ideas?
A couple basic questions. Have you tried a separate PC? Do you have USB debugging enabled? Do you get any indication of your phone being charged when plugged into a port? Can you plug into a wall fine? Lastly what are you planning to do transfer files etc?
EDIT. Going to bed. Will check on thread in the am.

If you accepted the ota then sadly you won't be able to unlock then bootloader and flash a recovery or ROMs. You may be able to gain root but at this point and for the foreseeable future there will be no way to unlock 4.3. :/

Look around some of the threads I remember a few people conforming a couple root methods. Too tired to go thread searching right now though. Removing bloat with just root works alright but you have to be more careful than someone who is unlocked would have to be. As for selling I can't fine much insight on that unfortunately.
