It was working before I rooted.
I am using PBJ Voodoo Overclock Kernel with 1.8.5 Gummycharged and the SD card fix, before I flashed the kernel/rom/fix the mass storage was working fine, I could drag and drop but now (even though it's set to USB Mass Storage) whenever I plug it in the only thing detected is 'CD Drive (E: )'. Can anyone help? I'd really like to start putting my Music/Videos on my Charge. Thanks in advance :]
Try either:
Enabling USB debugging mode (Settings --> Applications --> Development)
OR
Setting the USB mode to ask on connection

Debugging mode works as a temporary solution I guess, it causes alot of problems with my computer, it freezes it up and most of the time it can't finish the copy process, right now I'm just using my MicroSD USB reader, if that ever fails I could just put the SD card in my old phone which worked fine, thanks though
I am having the same issue. I got the phone yesterday and rooted last night and it won't connect either. It'll charge fine, but that's it. I am on my work PC so I cannot do much testing, but putting it in USB debugging mode at least made the PC recognize it.
I had to set it to ask on connection for it to work for me

I did a quick reboot and enabled the debug and it seems to work now thanks. Seems like the sd fixed works afterall. Thanks everyone.
I cannot get phone to connect in mass storage either every time it loads it brings up a scan drive screen with quick fix or continue without scanning. Then opens as CD Drive, I am completely lost and getting no feedback, have yet to try SD Fix or where to get it or how to get it.
Have you done everything I told you? After you do all that, go to setting, USB Settings then check "ask on connection."

I've been sideloading apps for awhile now non-rooted, and copying stuff to/from my phone by mounting the USB.
Today, I decide to root using the 1-click root method, and it works fine...
However, when I connect my phone via USB (debugging on of course) and then mount my USB my PC no longer recognizes the SD cards like it did before???
Can somebody help me?
I've had two of these phones already (first one had the auto tun off problem).
Both have had this problem when I initially got them. The previous one had it after rooted as well. Its not really a bug maybe. Just go into settings>applications>USB settings and choose anything other than "mass storage". Then exit out, plug in the usb, let it do its thing (it wont work). No unplug the USB cable and go back into settings and change it back to "mass storage". It should work then.
I think if you just select anything other than mass storage then choose mass storage again it should work too. Its a little finicky. Once it starts working, it won't stop though. Just that initial connection I guess.
Try changing usb plug at pc. There has been issues with usb ports on main board. Also update chipset drivers.

I cannot get my phone to enter usb mass storage mode. I am running cm7 7.03. I plug my phone in and it just charges, doesnt give me the option for mass storage like it used to.

Mine doesn't auto ask, I have to drop the menu from the top of the phone and select it. Can you select it there?
Never used CM so I don't no that you can. But every rom I have ever used had the option there.
Do you have USB debugging mode on?

I used to have the option in the drop down menu but not anymore.
Yes I have tried it with it enabled and disabled. When it is plugged in to the pc it charges it, but nothing else.
My guess is you had USB debugging mode enabled then you made a selection to charge when use USB connected to the computer and you might have accidently checked to do this everytime so you wouldn't get the mass storage button when the USB is connected

I upgraded to Sky-ICS RC7.4 Speed yesterday and today. Obviously the USB mass storage was working earlier because I got the .zip file for the upgrade on the phone. Well, just a little while ago I tried to connect so I could pull those zip files off just to save some room and it won't connect.
I can charge the phone, the laptop(Windows 7) and the phone both make sound/vibrate when connected. BUT, with I go to "Connect storage to PC" it tells me to unplug the cable, which it hasn't before but I did it anyway. I unplug the cable press the connect button again it states to connect the cable, I do. Press the button to connect and I get the same result. I've tried enable USB debugging and try again and it states to disable, blah blah blah.
It's great that I can charge the phone via USB all day long but really sucky that I can't access any of my files via my laptop.
Anyone had this issue or know of any fixes that may alleviate this issue? I sure would appreciate your help.
FYI, USB drivers are installed on the laptop and reapplied after the the issue of not being able to connect USB mass storage...
update: I am able to see the two mounts in computer management on my Windows 7 machine but not able to access them through My Computer.
I was reading from other threads about a possible Windows issue, how I find it unlikely, but I did a system restore from an earlier date and that made no difference. It's still a matter of the phone connecting completely to the pc.
Also tried different ports and usb cables, no avail.
I could really use some input so that if need be I can access the files on the phone to either flash back to stock or at least modify the files I have on there now to let me be able to attach my mass storage. I'm liking the the rom it's just a few little things like this that are making me completely love it.
i have the same issue if i plug in to the front usb ports. no problems with the back and its only been since i updated to seans latest speed stripped ICS rom
I was having the same issues. I turned the phone off, took the battery out, and then restarted it. It worked.

Correct; you need to reboot your phone because you probably connected / disconnected too fast and the phone is bugged out now.
I'm on 7.4 speed stripped and its working fine for me. Did you try installing the Samsung USB drivers exe in the dev forum?

So I can't connect my Droid RAZR to my windows 7 machine...
I have tried a lot of things!
I've tried:
*Different computers including Vista and Linux
*Different cables
*Different fastboot files
*Re-installing drivers
*Factory reset
*PIM sync from the market etc.
What happens when I plug my phone into my PC is the computer recognizes it, it makes a sound, then it says Unknown Device connected or some times it says USB malfunctioned and then on my lockscreen it says the phone is charging but it doesn't show on my battery icon.
Whats also interesting is if I got into Fastboot mode and connect to my computer it says USB connected and then I can use it in RSD with no problems.
I'm on ICS with no root.
Please help!

With the phone plugged in, have you tried opening up the lockscreen so you can get to your phone? Please take a screenshot of the device manager settings.
Computer Management -> Device Manager -> Find the device (double click on it) -> Details -> Hardware Ids
Or you can write out what the hardware ID is. Thanks.
YOu said you also tried it in linux. please post the output from lsusb for any unknown devices

I am also having a similar issue with the pc not recognizing the phone. I never had an issue with this problem. I have only rooted my phone with no custom room. I have always connected my phone to the pc and was giving a connection screen on my phone asking me if i want to connect as a mass media storage. A week ago this behavior stopped. I don't know what to do anymore. I don't remember doing anything to the phone to mess up the setting? I connected it to several computers using different micro usb data cables and nothing occurs.
The only thing happens is my phone receives a charge from the computer and thats it. Any ideas? Is there anyway i can reset the system or what not?

me also facing same problem and already i turned on USB Debugging mode but nothing happened. still i can't connect USB mass storage of my android device
Hey guys what you should try to do is use this :
after pluggin in your devices and removing their current driver in device manager(control panel>admin tools>computer management>device manager>
and then install this
http://adbdriver.com/upload/AdbDriverInstaller.exe
also make sure you adb debugging is enabled (if it's not visible(setttings>about/info>build number tap it multiple times) usually its settings>dev options>usb debugging.
also maybe try using this software as pc suite myphonexplorer
Can you guys go to the storage menu in settings, press the menu key, select USB connection mode (or something like that) and play around with the settings in there? Try that out.

When i'm connecting my phone via usb, choose a connection type screen does not appear and i cant select the "disk drive" or "charge only" options. When i tap to change usb settings, it sends me to "portable hotspot & tethering"
Windows recognizes usb device
Phone is stock, some days ago updated to android 4.1
Try disabling usb debugging. On my Blade I have to do that if I want to mount it as usb storage.
My S and tablets doesnt need that though, but might be worth a shot.
Hmm interesting my phone turns usb debugging automaticaly on when i connect my device, tried hard reset, problem still remains
I see. I read about someone else having the same issue on JB. I guess its a bug or something.
I guess you either have to flash a custom rom or wait for an official update.
In the mean time, you could always use quick adb pusher. Much better than mounted usb storage (requires a working adb connection, which you should have if you have installed htc sync)
