Hi,
I have a problem with my hd2. when I connect it to my pc windows7 x64 i can not choose the connection type. Always it show to me "internet sharing" window. In usb to pc I have checked "Ask me first about USB connection type when I connect the device to the PC" but it doesn't help. Also when I try to open "usb to pc" window, the "internet sharing" window is opened at first. How can I solve this problem?
Settings > Micellaneous > USB to PC connection, choose on either Active Sync or Disk Drive.

Did you uncheck the "enable faster synchronization" option? Might help with getting ActiveSync to start working.
HD2 not recognized by Windows XP
Hi, I have similar problem, when I attach my HD2 to PC (windows XP with Active Synch installed), notting happens apart form my phone start being charged.
The option on the HD2 to ask always what to do is unabled but nothing happens.
Unable fast data synch is disabled.
The phone is not visible even as external drive in Explorer.
In Device Manager on PC there is nothing strange (what I should look here for??!!).
The strange thing is in the past this HD2 was working perfectly with another PC...
When plugged it was presenting disk drive or active synch ooption and was visible in Explorer..
What I should do?
I have a same problem. Since a few days my phone just charging on USB. I booted an android and the USB was working fine, so I decided to update the Winmo rom (Miri 23.0v). Nothing happened. I update/downgraded the rom and radio (from 2.10 to 2.14) as well but the issue still exists. It can be a hardware related problem because the android is working fine. Any idea?
connection problem
I am experiencing the exact same problem. my phone gets charged through the usb but doesn't connect to active sync or as disc drive. doesn't even ask about usb connection type even though its checked.
another problem i am having is that when i open the phone dialer it opens in the landscape mode.
Both problems occurring with Win Xp/7 on PC and Winmo 6.5 1.66/3.14 on HD2
Somebody please help!!!
As per the heading, I abandoned carrying a USB memory stick years ago, instead I have a 16GB memory card in my phone and carry a 15CM micro USB to USB cable in my pocket, this way I can use my phone as a USB drive when ever I need it, but I have a problem with my SGS 2
1) the drive seems to randomly disconnect itself whether or not it is transferring data
2) the option to ask me what I want to do every time I connect my USB cable is missing, forcing me to go to settings--> wireless and networks---> USB utilities, just to use my phone as a USB drive ....... VERY IRRITATING
does anybody else use this feature, if so what are your findings ?
I have a similar problem, it will disconnect randomly but also when trying to update and some times when trying to transfer files. I do however get the option to view files pop up when I plug it in. I made a post earlier but no one replied, hopefully it can be fixed easily. I wouldn't really know where to start though

Um, there must be something wrong with your phone. I have not done anything special to use my SGS2 as a USB drive. It's litterally plug it in and away you go.
I just plug it into the computer, the phone says something like MTB in progress, Kies connection or whatever.
Then I get the option to view all files and folders in My Computer (windows 7).
No problems whatsoever.

I don't normally use the "MTB in progress" version as the majority of computers I plug it into do not have kies loaded.
I use the standard USB drive option in settings
Bump
Anyone else having this issue

Hi,
i dont have any USB connection issues, loaded my 32Gb SD and the internal Storage full and i do use a lot the Mass Storage funktion, somtetimes the connection lasts for hours, so (Win7 32Bit).
Totally agree, the settings--> wireless and networks---> USB utilities ... tapping is verry annoying. Have to do this many times a day
Maybe someone knows an solution how to set the "Mass Storage" connection as an default?

try multimount off the market.
You need to enable usb debugging (to prevent the keis rubish launching).
then anytime you want mass storage mode, click the multimount widget.
-- Actually just enabling USB debugging seems to set mass storage mode as default.
I have the same problem but I think it's the problem of the USB port on your PC. I plug the phone in another port and everything is ok now. You can try this on another PC or another port and you'll see. Hope this helps

1) Doesn't happen on mine. Have you tried using USB ports on other computers as it could be due to a particular USB port on a particular computer doesn't supply enough current?
2) It's irritating.

So you don't have a usb icon in the notification area? Otherwise, you just have to select it to enable usb storage.

Thanks Mate!
USB Debugging prevents Kies and bring up the Mass Storage directly
One more (very small, but annoying) issue of the SGS2 solved

When I enable debugging mode, I does indeed turn on mass storage mode and it works. However, every time I unplug the phone it reboots. I do press the disconnect USB drive button and I do eject it on my PC. It still crashes. Does anyone else have this problem?

This happened to me today, and the reason was the Android browser application running in background. Using the task manager I killed browser and then I faced no problem thereafter.
So, to sum up I guess an application running in background might be the reason.
Hope this helps somebody...
It's funny you should say that, as I hardly ever get that problem anymore, and I mostly use dolphin hd browser now

If it is connecting in download mode then the cable is perfect. Flash the firmware again to check if it is working or not

This was an issue since i had gingerbread. I upgraded to ics, didmt solve. Jelly bean, nope! I flashed neat rom, still the same.
The only it gets connected is when i turn off both my laptop and phone, connect usb, turn both on. Only then it gets connected to mass storage

please go in settings

USB utilities... click connect storage to pc and then plug the cable...... try if this default stock method works......
Most other android devices i know of you can plug em in with a USB cable and it shows up on the computer like a USB memory stick. Thus far with every setting i try the prime shows up as like a camera or MTP device or whatever, makes it a pain to transfer files and it blocks some system files.
Am i missing something here or is there a way to make the prime just show up as a USB memory stick on my computer?
Have you installed the USB driver from ASUS?

Mine shows up as an MTP device but also shows the drives and they are drag and drop accesible.
Hi
In the past week or so my HP TouchPad running CM9 has suddenly stopped being browsable in Windows Explorer. The cm_tenderloin device appears in the list of drives, but clicking reveals a white screen. MTP is selected on the Storage > USB computer connection screen.
Curiously, in the same time, my HTC HD7 has stopped syncing with Zune, so I suspect this is a USB related issue - can anyone point me in the right direction?
Try connecting while in webos with your USB if that doesn't work it would sound like there is a problem with the USB socket on your PC have you tried another socket on your PC or a different PC sometimes my laptop has a hissy fit and I have to use a different socket with hard drives etc . I would suggest doing that before worrying that your tablet has faulty socket.

I'm beginning to think that the issue is with Windows 7, tbh. Multiple cables and different ports have been tried, all to no avail. Something has corrupted the OS, I think. No viruses or malware are being detected, so I'm going to fall back on a reinstall (I keep my data off the system drive, so no biggy)
you can always connect over the network and browse everything on your device that way. i like es file explorer. just put the thouchpad in ftp mode then connect to it from the computer. also if you know how to use ./adb connections you can move files to and from the touchpad and browse the entire device that way.
Hey guys. I'm sorry if this has already been posted, but I've searched everywhere on the internet and could not find this same problem. No troubleshooting tips helped either.
I own a Lenovo P2 and until recently I could connect to the PC via USB without any problems. Now, my PC doesn't recognize the phone at all. I mean that it doesn't even show up as faulty device or searching for drivers.
With no computer does my phone connect anymore.
The USB cable is not faulty either, nor the PC USB ports and the phone's jack, and the option for MTP is selected. Despite all this it only charges.
Here is the catchy part as the USB configuration setting seems bugged out for me. No matter which option I choose, MTP will show up as selected, yet the phone will only charge.
