debugging allows adb to work.
You need to turn on usb storage on your tablet for your computer to see it.

How do i do that?

I have cyanogenmod installed in it

It should be in the notification area on your tablet every time you plug your computer into your tablet. "USB connected. Select to copy files to/from your computer"
select it and then press the button "Turn on USB storage"
When you are done then press "Turn off USB storage"

Thats what i thought but theres nothing there??????

I installed cm6.2 beta last night and I think it mounts the sdcards differently than any of the other roms. Be aware there are some differences in this rom but the usb mount is universal

So what do i do? I got noting here, is ther something in the setting i have to change?

If you have clockwork recovery installed then boot into clockwork recovery. (if not then install clockwork recovery 0.8)
Plug tab into computer with USB cable
Go into "mounts and storage"
"mount USB storage"
Don't know if it makes a difference but I only use the mini usb port on the tab.
I didn't have cm 6.2 installed long because it still has all the 3g stuff on it but it seemed to me it was seeing my external sdcard (sdcard2) as my internal sdcard (sdcard). You could try putting the update.zip on a micro sdcard and putting that in the tab and then seeing if clockwork sees it to install

Did that and still nothing

Any other ideas?

[Q] Installed USB drivers, but system doesn't see the phone.

The phone is working fine, the port is fine, the cord is fine.
I installed the x64 Captivate USB drivers on my x64 system, and when I hook up the phone it sees the phone, but I can't use it as a "mass storage" device and copy things to it. Any help?

Same happened to me. Try using the x32 drivers.
Worked, I'm on Froyo now, thanks!
Nevermind, I see you got it fixed.
This might be a stupid suggestion but did you Mount the drives? You have to mount the drives before Windows sees them. It will see the phone but not the drives. To mount just pull down the notification area from the top and tap on "USB Connected" then tap "Mount". Not sure if you tried that yet but that's the first thing you need to do after the USB connection is made.

[Q] USB to PC not recognized after installed Vegan-Tab 5.1

hi, I just installed Vegan-Tab 5.1 and i tried to connect the USB to my computers (windows vista/xp) neither of them recognizes the removable disk. gtablet shows USB connected, and on my PC it asked for installing Nvidia Harmony driver, i dont have one so the system failed to install it. Then drive E: shows up, but when i click it it shows "please insert a disk into removable disk E:".
When i had the original TNT ROM although it prompted for install Nvidia Harmony but i can still access E:.
Please help.
Well I think you need to turn on USB storage on the tablet
Drag notification bar down and select files to copy to/from computer
Then enable USB storage
I just installed the same rom and am having the same problem. Can't find a way to get my computer to see the usb, it shows up, but asks for disc.
I'm also having the same issue, PC won't "see" the tablet
also USB thumb drives are not recognized anymore
Missing USB Flash
I'm having the same problem running Vegan 5.11 and it can't see a flash drive plugged into it.

Finally got BigIdeas installed and I don't have usb either. It shows up on the PC but it asks for a disk. When I (try) to enable it on the tab it just sits and the little icon turns like it's tryin but I get nothing? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Howie

No prompt comes up when PC is connect to device.....
Plug in USB................... nothing happens
Also, I noticed that when a SD Card is inserted, the text under >settings>SD Card & Device storage> READS "unmount in progress" after you mount the SDCARD
Now it's working

Went into CWM and mounted the USB drive, rebooted, and now it works fine?
Also, when I am in ES file explorer and I am navigated to the /sdcard
it reads ""sdcard unmounted or not present"
got it all figured out......
Still not seeing the flash
Does connect through the mini USB to the internal SD storage...
Anyone know id there's any docs for the Vegan system?

I'm having the same problem with the unmount in progress. Can you please tell me how you figured it out? I've done everything including nvflash, CWM, to start fresh and I still am making no progress.
Thanks
I had the same problem. Here is what worked for me.
1. Plug in your USB.
2. You should see the USB icon show up on the top left taskbar.
3. Swipe that taskbar downwards.
4. Click on "USB connected"
5. Click on the "Turn on USB Storage" icon on the bottom right of the screen.
6. Click "OK"
Your drive letter should be mapped on your PC, you should be able to drag and drop files. When you are done, just click the "Turn off USB Storage" icon. You can now disconnect your USB cable.
Hope that helps.
Thank you so much. This is simple once you know it, but I was completely stumped. Am still getting used to the UI.
Thanks! Saved me a lot of possible pain.
Thank you very much!!! Iwas in the same fix!

That posting is really helpful (sarcasm). How did you get it figured out?
I'm having the same problem and I'm not getting the USB connected symbol or any other notification from the tablet that the PC is connected.
I'm running CM with the clemsyn kernel 2.6.32.9.

[Q] Cannot Mount SD Card: Recovery or ROM?

I just updated several things on my Sensation. First, I updated from Energy Oct 18 to Energy Oct 22 ROM; second, I updated from Stock Kernel to Bricked v1.4; third, I updated from CWMR 4.0.1.4 to CWMR 5.0.2.0.
Everything is working fine, except for the fact that I can't figure out how to mount my SD Card when connected to my computer via USB right now. After rebooting after updating CWMR, I wanted to install Amaze camera v7.
I can't figure out why I can't mount the disk drive because I didn't change any settings. I have USB debugging enabled, and even in "connect to pc" when I set the default connection type to "disk drive" nothing happens. I also tried unplugging the USB cable and plugging it back in, but I still can't get the phone to bring up the prompt asking how I want to connect (and before you ask, I have it set to "ask me about USB connection type whenever I connect my phone to a PC). What do you guys think the problem is? Is it CWMR 5.0.2.0? If it is, I'll gladly change over to that EXT4 Recovery.
Remove you sd card and return it back to the phone.
It sounds like a problem with the SD card. As said above, try removing it and reinserting it.
Or if you have an SD carrier for it, try using that to read it in another reader and format it.

[Q] Why is USB mass storage gone?

Hi,
I'm on nk111's newest CM10 build and since a few days my DS does not provide this "activate mass storage" dialogue if I connect it with my PC via USB. Am I missing a setting or how can this happen?

I'm using the same rom and I've meet the problem as well. In my case, it seems related to my operating system, it failed to detect the usb plugged in. It's works well after a reboot.
Hm, tried it on a Windows and a OS X machine, both not working. I also rebooted the 2 PCs and the phone, but the problem still exists.
Flash rom again using this method using EXT4 recovery

I cannot connect with computer via usb

I Instalet many roms and on everyione was working perfectly before some time i instaled viper 1.3.2 and when i conect it to computer my phone is only charging now i instaled cyanogen mod 10.1 its not working again only charging.
I selected file transfer in settings>storage> menu but still nothing can anyone help me please...
ViperS uses MTP (Media Transfer Protocol) and not UMS mode (USB Mass Storage mode) (as like CM, MIUI, etc).
Just go to My Computer and you'll find an entry "HTC Sensation Z710e". Double-click on it and it will show you your SDCard

I checked that already i read on this forum about that but nothing of that is working i also tried on diferent computers first is saying unknown device and after that i try MTP and usb mass but nothing ... Something else
What exactly you want to do ?
If you want to transfer files to phone or take backup of SDCard then boot into 4EXT Recovery > Connect USB cable to phone > Select "Toggle USB storage" (or something like that). Your phone will now show up in My Computer as a new drive. You can do whatever you want including Formatting
Good Luck !!!
