[Q] SDK tools question - General Questions and Answers

When at my home PC, I have no problems. When at work, my PC does not see my phone when using sdk tools!
It will read my mass storage, but only after I reboot the PC, once I disconnect from the PC, I have to reboot the PC to be able to see mass storage again.
Any suggestions?

If you are running windows 7 and all else fails, open device manager and find the samsung or unknown device and try to uninstall all samsung drivers, be sure when the computer asks if you want to uninstall the files too to select "yes/ok". After doing that reboot the computer let it settle down til the hard drive lite indicator on computer does not blink.
After that securly plug the usb cable into the phone and into the computer
wait 15-30 seconds more or less and if you are running windows 7 and are connected to internet then windows will automatically install fresh drivers into your computer and most likely your problem will be solved..
If this solves the problem it means that your samsung drivers for some reason got corrupted.
Also just because your computer reconizes "other cards" that does not mean that it will reconize your samsung phone.. The samsung fone requires specific drivers to be install for it to reconize your phone.
For sdcards, flash drives, external hard drives windows only uses its generic usb drivers, thats why your computer reconizes the usb cards properly now even though it does not reconize your phone.
Good luck.

[Q] Computer can't see

Hello everyone:
My problem is not new, I had this problem with other devices as well. I plug in my triumph to my windows7 pc and it sees the phone (as CD drive), and shows the driver install but it won't let me look at the phone files and it doesn't see the SD card. I enabled debugging, Do I have to go into window to do...something? I'm still with 2.2 and I know 2.3 would speed things up a bit. please help, TIA
db.
Debugging shouldn't be the problem here... try restarting (your phone, and if that doesn't work, your computer too)... that solved a very similar problem for me.
Details...
Could you explain the steps you've taken in a little more detail?
For instance:
a) Have you installed the drivers by having Windows "discover" your device? or perhaps you installed drivers you downloaded from the web?
b) Does Windows recognize your device as USB Mass Storage at any time after you connect your phone via USB?
c) Does anything resembling "Removable Disk" appear under My Computer?

[Q] Linux doesn't recognize OPO as media device (MTP)

Hi
When I connect my phone via usb to my pc (running Ubuntu 14.04) it isn't mounted as a media device and I can't even connect to it via adb. However, if I chose the option to connect as a camera I can access the DCIM and the Pictures folders and use adb to access the whole device.
My previous phone (Galaxy S3) worked fine as MTP and still does.
Any idea what could be the cause? Do I have to install any special drivers?

[Q] usb problem?

Hi,
When I connect my phone in usb mode I see my SD card on my computer but not the phone's internal storage (latest HiSuite is installed). The MTP mode does not show all my folders and files that's why I really need to see the phone in mass storage mode.
Also, whenever I connect my phone to the computer, USB debugging mode turns on even though I disable dev mode. I tried factory reset twice and install/uninstall HiSuite but it still does not work.
That would be awesome to have some help.
Thanks
Can you guys at least let me know if you are able to connect your phone's internal memory in mass storage mode?

MTP mode should display all folders/files in internal memory. However, same as you, sometimes, the computer does not show all. What i do is just disconnect, then reconnect. Oftentimes, it solves the problem. If not, then i both restart the computer and the phone, then it will be ok.

[Q]how to put device in mass-storage mode

Hello,
I pluged the device to my laptop (win 7 pro 64bit) and have chosen the driver mode, installed the drivers, then i want to access the mass storage mode to transfer the files using file commander, but the only modes are charge, MTP, PTP, driver disk....i cant see the internal and external storage as a disk in any mode. Please how to fix this?
I might be wrong, but I do not think Lollipop supports USB mass storage anymore . You should still be able to transfer files in and out via Windows Explorer using MTP mode. And I actually like that because I no longer have to worry about ejecting the device before unplugging.
Usb Mass Storage (UMS) is no more officially supported since Jelly Bean 4.2.2. Nevertheless we can find some app/mod enabling it (on playstore) but I don't know if or works with 5.0 + and root is needed.
