Help with USB mass storage - Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all.
I have a problem with the mass storage hack that we use to convert WP7 to a mass storage device.
It worked for me initially but no more.
Anyone else have this happen to them and more importantly, anyone find a fix for this?
If this is in the wrong place, my apologies mods.

Maybe the Zune software update "fixed" this.

Do you have WP7?
Because I haven't heard any of the other users over in the hacking section mention this.

Read my signature.
I don't think a lot of people use the USB mass storage hack, honestly.

Oh well, I'll have to do some intensive searching tonight.

Like I said, it stopped working.
I also got it working again.
As it turns out, there are multiple places you can modify the registry and you simply have to modify them all and see if it works.
For me, I have 4 control sets so I had to modify all of them and it was the last one that worked.

[Q] XDApp Lite

Who here has the XDApp lite working?
I have it cooked into my ROM and it will never work, ever. It tries to connect, gives it three attempts and quits. I'm envious to all Android OS owners who have it up and running on their devices.
Does anyone have it working on their windows mobile phones and if so have a .cab file? Or even a fix? Any help or advice is appreciated

Two things:
1.) Yes I am using the default skin. Do you know where to find other ones?
2.) When I find said skins how can I change it? Because I don't know where to find my data for that app, because as I said, it's cooked into the ROM.

no not on your phone im talking about on your computer scroll all the way down to the bottom of the screen & on the left hand side should be a drop down menu click on it and it should say Quick Style Chooser with 2 skins to chose from 1 being the default skin & the other being the beta skin make sure you are using the default skin then on your phone try to login again to see if it works this worked for me
Nothing, I tried twice. I don't know what could possibly be the problem. I'm going to try to change the layout on my cellphone to see if that might fix it.
How exactly are you connecting to your Xdapp lite? Wifi or 3g?

im using wifi
Okay so that would make sense as to why that works for you. I'm going to try changing it on my phone, and if still nothing do you think disconnecting my data and using wifi would work?

Thanks alot! haha I appreciate it.
Maybe someone else can pick up on this project and make it more user friendly haha I have no programming skills seeing as I'm 17 and the only C++ I know was a 10 year old curriculum I took in high school last year So I can't...but it'd be nice to see someone else take this up and make it better than it already is

Can't connect to PC after pre-dexopt patch

I did that 3x already. It won't notify me that usb cable is connected to PC. It will still charge.
This may be a stupid question, but did it connect before? Are the LG proprietary drivers loaded?

My thoughts as well. Plenty have installed this without a hitch, not to mention it has nothing to do with that part of the phone.

Yes I use to transfer files all the time.
Well then I'd say one of the modifications made by dexopt killed the pre-loading of what ever's on the phone side that talks to the LG drivers on the PC. I know a lot of folks are anxious to mod, but as flaky as the SW is on this phone and the lack of experience the devs have working with LG products caveat emptor.
Try opening the app "Rom Manager" and selecting the option "fix permissions" that will probably get you back to normal again.

No. This patch is very simple and straight-forward. Paul knows exactly what he's doing and it's been tested by tons on the O2x forums and many on these forums. His issue is isolated and almost definitely has nothing to do with the patch.

Probably why, I read alot people with missing preloaded apps after the patch.

I'm not questioning the dev's skills and I know there are some rock stars that are tackling the G2X/O2X. But up until this phone, the attention paid to LG hardware has been pretty light because most of their phones have been mid-range. No one has "tons of experience on the O2X" because it's only been out a few months. LG's software implementation is funky as seen by the need for proprietary drivers, bizarre Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, radio, interaction, and treatment of SD storage. All I'm saying is that unlike HTC, Samsung, and Motorola phones this one's virgin territory.
Try going in to settings/sd card and storage. click the mass storage only box. I did this while plugged in to usb and it fixed it. I unclicked the box and its still fixed.

I tried that too. I am going to do nandroid restore.
Did doing the fix permissions not work for you? I have seen this before and fixing permissions typically will fix it.
I'm also having issues with the patch. Ever since i patched, apps that require gps no longer work, and google maps force closes every time I open it.

[Q] usb memory card reader ?

Hi!
i'm a photographer and would be please to directly read my photos on the touchpad with and usb memory card reader ... any project seen on that ?
Fred
I would also like to know about this.
SENT FROM MY DINC2 RUNNING CM7 overclocked to 1.6ghz
I'm also a photographer so this would be very useful for me. It'd be great to be able to backup an SD to the Touchopad when on location.
The other option I'm considering is an Eye-Fi SD card or two so I can wirelessly transfer images. It should work.

Thanks for the reply. I think I'll wait a while to see if it can be done before investing in an Eye-Fi card.
It actually might be possible there is a thread on it at precentral

It's definitely possible, people are doing it.
It just requires several cables (one an OTG), an AC-powered USB hub and your time. I'd rather be able to just plug in one cable/device.
We have the port, just need the OS to use it correctly. As I understand it, USB is USB - data-wise. Maybe one of the talented PreWare devs can write a patch we can load eventually.

It's not slow? What is making you say that? If you are referring to USB transfer speeds that is not the sdcards fault.

nobody can because we don't know what you're talking about. the nexus s accesses the file system at a very fast rate.
he probably means that he has slow transfer rates form pc to internal sd card, if that so, then maybe this help him.
Mine is slow to my files will only transfer at 1.4-1.9 m and my wifes same phone copys at 8-9m/s any way to fix this

Yes, don't bring up old topics. And use the search function.
But otherwise there's many ways. Transfer from within CWM. Use MTP. Or check my signature, even!

Galaxy S6 - Can't do anything at all

I recently got myself a free Galaxy S6 in topaz blue 32GB version. It was missing a battery so I put one in and it surprisingly seemed to work, well until some stuff started showing on the screen.
Unfortunately, the phone seems it can't mount any partitions whatsoever. Upon booting I get various messages about not being to able open or mount partitions, which unfortunately means I can't access the recovery menu. Have tried installing many different original softwares from various carriers but nothing seems to work. One thing which I did get working is TWRP, I managed to install it via odin, but now all the different storages show up as 0MB, tried various tips from youtube but none seem to work. I can push files to it via ADB but none can install due to no partitions being able to be mounted. I can't even wipe any partitions via odin. I'm starting to suspect the device probably had the storage encrypted somehow.
I've given up all hopes now , can someone please help me? Is there even any help for my device?
First off you should never have even rooted this device. When u root a device it voids all warranty. Second have you tried buying a different battery.

To my knowledge, the device wasn't rooted as stated by the previous owner when I went to pick it up, and right now it is using a 1 year old battery so I don't think that's an issue.
Do you have a way to live stream the phone so I can walk you through a couple things.

Not too familiar with that but I've heard of it before. I'll have to make an account first but that's no big deal

Okay so I made an account and have set it up on my phone aswell, but I think my internet connection is either too slow or not stable enough because the stream keeps ending on me and freezing. I don't know how we could do this but would youtube do? Sorry I'm not good with these streaming things as I've never done it before lol
