Hello there..
Previously i already rooted my phone HTC Desire. But after i change a few ROM's, have some error on progress. but i'm not sure what the actual problems. After that my phone can use BUT i cannot access my SD Card,i cannot use my camera/video,Bluetooth even when i plug my USB Cable,it NOT show DISK DRIVE for me to select. My question is, without access to SD Card and USB Cable, how to change my existing ROM's to another?..
*Hopefully the expert person can help me.
Please be advise.
Regards & Thank you Guys...

The simplest suggestion would be to remove the SD card from the phone and use a card reader to place a new ROM on it.
If this doesn't work for some reason, you can connect to your computer via Wifi and use ADB to push a new ROM onto the SD card. However, if your phone won't mount the SD card when you plug in the USB cable there is probably something wrong with the way it is communicating with the SD card.
An external card reader is your best bet.
Just to double check - can you access your SD card when you boot the phone in recovery mode?

The problem is, i can't access my SD card from my phone and recovery mode. and also when i plug in USB cable to PC,it just show can charge only. As i know, we ONLY can flash new ROM just from SD Card. is that have another way to do it?
Can't access the SD card from the PC....
I'm using MS File Explorer on the PC and am connected by USB cable, and can see folders that appear to be the data on the internal memory of Gtab, but don't see anything for the external SD card.
Can you get to your external SD card from your PC?? Any idea how I can get it to show up? Want to be able to transfer files, but am currently having to keep pulling it out of the Gtab and put it into the SD card slot on the laptop to get access.
I'm running Vegan b3. Thanks in advance!!
Hi,
If you share your pc drive, you can use ES File Explorer, by selecting LAN instead of local.

Fyi, I just tested this (network sharing) and was able to access shares on a Win7 machine and on a WinXP machine. For the latter, I had to use the "guest" user, with no password.

I think he wants to do it the other way around; access the external sdcard from the PC.
One of the glaring goofs by the OEM devs and the firmware. If a microsd is in the slot, we should see two logical drives when the device is mounted.
Incredible, Galaxy S and Tab versions with internal space shows two drives (as they should). Another issue with the G is the microsd unmount function is problematic- at best.
I cannot access my external sd card that's in my gTab from windows via the USB cable. I seem to remember that when I first bought it , I could see both the internal and external storage when I connected the gTab to Windows via USB (when it still had stock ROM). Now I am running rooted VEGAn-TAB-v1.0.0b5.1.1 and when I connect it via USB to windows I can only see the internal storage (I couldn't see it when I tried cyanogenmod either). I can access both brom the gTab just fine and if I take out the ext. sd card, windows reads it just fine.
Any idea why and/or how to access both internal and external storage from windows when gTab is plugged in via USB to windows?
As far as I know you could never access the external sdcard from the computer by usb
I load things from my external SD to internal SD and visa versa using ghost commander. Not a super big deal just one extra step. At this point I almost forgot I had to do that to move files between them and my PC.
i use a app that mounts them both
The way I found to access my external sd card from my computer is to ftp into my gTab using filezilla on my computer and SwiFTP FTP Server (available free from Market) on my gTab. Here is another post that talks about how to access the ext. sd card remotely: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=869844

Thanks, I know some other people will want to try this app.
Not a great fit for me as I dislike the delays built into a lot of free apps.
I just plug a USB thumb drive into my PC, download the files onto that then plug it into my tablet and download from the USB drive onto the SDCARD. Easy like pie.
Works the other direction too!!!

ICS does not support USB mass storage. I know with the official version you use MTP (media transfer protocol) but I'm not sure if it works with custom builds.
One way around this is if you have an micro SD card adapter and SD card slot on your computer.
Okay thx. i have a external sd card and can put it into my computer. But i thought i've done something wrong.
I have a faves pad 10.1 model yx10a03, and i'm having trouble with storage.
When I go to settings and storage it says I have total space 0.00, even with an 8gb msd card installed. so I'm thinking the tab has lost all its mount points.
I have tried 6 different micro sd cards as well and none of them seem to be recognized, I get a message " preparing sd card then nothing registers.
What do I do? I can get apps to install , but anything that needs more space like google earth etc fails during install.
Some one help...I can't find a firmware update or a custom rom from anywhere.
Iv'e tried factory data reset, no joy. I need a total system reset but not sure how.

When you connect to your computer or using something like Astro can you see or navigate to the "external" memory card drive?
If I connect it without a Micro sd card inserted I get nothing.
But if I connect the pad to my P.C via usb cable with a Micro sd card in it, it registers as external 8gb drive which I can send files to etc.
If I use astro, it sees that the sd card as a mount but nothing inside. Also doesn't show any size or storage available.
I could do with rooting method and put a custom rom on it but can't find anything about it.

Phone/Tablet inits the device but it's OS (drivers?) can't read the format.

PC recognized the mounted initialized device and can R/W to the (fat32?) format.

Astro (AFAIK) ques the device's I/O system for file spec and info. It (again AFAIK) just sends commands through the Tablet's OS. Kinda like running LS might in IRIX or some other unix.

I have no idea and I'm a total n00b but... I wonder if the Tablet uses a proprietary/virtual FS on the SD card instead of the direct embedded card driver?
Is there anything in the instructions about formatting the card? Did you try to format the card in the tablet yet?
So this would be like when I format an SD card on my Mac... It can no longer be read by any other device until it's re-formatted by a non-mac device... But if mounted by said external device acting as a "card-reader" then the connected Mac can perform I/O normally. Only in this case your tablet is like the mac in that situation. Errr, if that made any sense.
Anyway, try to format the card on your tablet and see if that works.
