Mounting to computer really slow? - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III

I'm running CM10 and I've been trying to plug my phone into the computer, but it's really slow. I'm trying to free up some space but all my files don't even appear.
Is there a way to fix this?

To follow up also, the phone will no longer read my SD card, it's sees it, but won't bring anything up. My computer card reader is fine though.

Problems - Memory card loosing data, dodgy transfers

Anyone got any ideas why when i try to copy things to my SD card on the phone via active sync they disappear?
I keep transferring a file (About 100mb) and it fails at the last second but has "consumed" the amount of memory and I cannot find it anywhere.
Not only that everything i transfer has been failing and nothing installs from the memory card!?
Its really odd and don't know what is causing it, and how do i format it?
I have the HTC XDA Orbit, so think co-pilot installation file is there, but not really important to me since it sucks.
Oh - And when i try to install WM6.1 it starts, connects, everything seems to be fine, then vista kicks me shouting no driver (USB Controller I think!?) the phone gets RGB screen and a reboot is required.
I wanna through it out the window!
Sounds like a corrupted card. Plug the card directly into your computer using a memory card reader and run scandisk/chkdsk on it.

See SD card while in Disk Drive mode?

I there any way to make a microsd card visible in the phone while connecting the phone in Disk card mode to a computer. Kinda like "Card Export II". But seems very simple to do like have the card switch to read-only mode on the phone when connected. Or if you can have read and right on both the phone and computer that would be amazing.
So does anyone see this possible?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
im afraid that its not possible atm, since the computer is using the SD card as an extra HD to transfer files, and i had that come across all the time, i know its a pain especially if ure exporting pictures or wallpapers and try to see if itll fit or look nice on ur TP or FUZE but ya man it wont work, unless u can google it up and see if its possible, would be nice
The latest wm5torage does that. Only you need to run it and forget about the beautiful popup for selecting usb mode

SD Card Damaged. You May have to reformat it... There MUST be a solution

On my MyTouch 3g, if my phone shuts down or reboots unexpectedly, many times my SD Card will not mount. There MUST be a solution for this.
In recovery, I can see my files, so I know everything is not lost. How can I get Android to recognize it again?
I've researched hours on this. Formatting works, but I lose my info. There has to be a way to restore whatever files are getting corrupted from unexpected shutdown.
Windows often does not see it, ONLY in recover. So if, linux can see the files, it should be able to be repaired. How can I do it?
Move all of the files to your computer, format the card, then restore all the files?
Nope... too easy. I need a way to get the card o recognize again. There has to be a way....
I was told by a Sprint rep that phones are generally pickier about recognizing and reading SD cards than computers are. I had asked him to check out my SD card because my phone kept having problems mounting it, and he said it didn't matter if they checked it, it would always look fine if plugged into a computer, and ended up giving me another SD card for free.
Hope this helps.

Music on SD Card

I have been wondering for a while, i been noticing that when i put music on my external sd card from my laptop, after i disconnect from the laptop, it some time does not appear on my external sd card, like it was never there in the first place, and when i hook it up back to the laptop it is really not there. Is there something I'm missing, i been searching for a solution throughout the forum, and found nothing. Can someone please help me with this situation.
P.S. If you have a problem understanding my problem, basically I'm asking what is the proper way of putting music on your external sd card for the Infuse 4g. Thanks
Do you have enough space on the SD? I would make a folder in the external to make your music easier to find. I just click and drag into the appropriate card, make sure you properly eject phone when its complete too. It could be a lot of things, usually its something simple.
Yeah I came down to that conclusion, i know it is something simple, that just may be it, because i hardly ever properly eject it. I just normally pull the USB card thinking, whats the worst can happen lol... But thanks
Ya I've screwed my external by just yanking it out before, so I do it right now lol np
I have the same issue, I dragged an dropped each individual track and only one stuck? An when i tell my phone to unmount it, it just remounts it? getting really annoyed

External sd card no longer visible

I need assistance to restore the external sd card on my Galaxy Tab plus. For some reason My Files began crashing on start-up. I then discovered that the extStorage link was no longer available in any explorer. When I open the settings menu and click Storage it force closes as well. I tried a Factory reset to no avail. I located a new Myfiles.apk on line, but it wont install.
Please, if anyone has any ideas short of flashing the rom, let me know.
Now I'm kind of a noob in regards to tablets, but if it was me, I would turn off the tablet completely and then remove the microSD card. I would then turn on the tablet and make it is functioning properly. If so and if I had one, I would plop in a different microSD card and see what that does.
If that is all working, then suspicion falls on the original microSD card. I would then put the microSD card in a SD or USB adapter and insert that into, again if you have one, a laptop or desktop computer. If it does, see if you can copy the files over to the computer and then use the computer to refomat the card to "Fat 32".
I would then take the card out and plop it back into the tablet and if everything is working.
If so, dismount it from the tablet, insert it back into the computer, copy your files over and then plop it back into the tablet and see if it now reads your files properly.
This is kinda like a crime scene, you need to do small discrete tests to see where the problem lies. Is the culprit your tablet or the tablet card port or the microSD card or a corrupt file on the card or was it Colonel Mustard with a knife in the parlour closet...
G.B.
And remember, talking dogs are liars.
Been there, done that.
Ja, I have tried that approach. It seems this criminal is a tad more sinister. I think my only option now is to flash the stock rom. I was hoping to do that when ICS came out though.
Thanks for the help!
