Have you check on Storage Setting ( Settings > Storage > SD card) either the SDCard already mounted (if mounted it will show Unmount SD card if not it will state mount SD card).
If it mounted and you have Custom Recovery try boot to Recovery and try mount and see if it working on Recovery. If not it maybe your cable/micro SD card/computer have problem.
If it not working check the ROM page either they have support this feature or not, or maybe you have to reflash the ROM again.

I think it was the shizilon v41 I flashed and maybe picked something wrong. Because a reinstalled the from and it back working. Kinda strange. I don't know what happened really. But I fixed it. Thanks

No diskdrive
I have the same problem.
I am on Android Revolution 6.6.3. and have been for quiet some time. Never had any problems. Until a few days ago all of a sudden:
1. The pop up option for charge or diskdrive dissappeared when plugging in the cable
2. The icon in the drop down menu has also dissappeared
The strange thing is:
- The phone however IS charging.
- I tried a different cable; same result
- I tried 3 different computers (winx64, winx32 and apple) same result
- I did the total disassemble (remove battery and sd card) and reassemble
- I can acces my SD card in my phone; it is working ok
- Settings are set for automatic connect as diskdrive
- I did not install any app that has to do with performance of SD card or stuff like that
Don't know what to do anymore: anobody got a clue???

For the first time something like that happened to me the other day... What I did was change ports, then I wiggled the USB connections, mine were not connecting as they should, once I did that it finally recognised it, but I think it's in the cable..... So after I reconnected and wiggled port connections it poped up. Tells me I need a new USB.again........this is my second USB I'm a short time. Sometimes they go bad. Perhaps this is your problem too? Fiddle with it and see if connection is the problem. Hope this helps in some way
Good luck

[Q] Why is USB mass storage gone?

Hi,
I'm on nk111's newest CM10 build and since a few days my DS does not provide this "activate mass storage" dialogue if I connect it with my PC via USB. Am I missing a setting or how can this happen?

I'm using the same rom and I've meet the problem as well. In my case, it seems related to my operating system, it failed to detect the usb plugged in. It's works well after a reboot.

Hm, tried it on a Windows and a OS X machine, both not working. I also rebooted the 2 PCs and the phone, but the problem still exists.

Flash rom again using this method using EXT4 recovery

[Q] Recover data from P3100

I was running CM10 nightly on my SGT2 P3100. 2 days back i flashed the new Official JB update without taking backup ( should have taken, learnt my lesson). After rebooting all the personal files were gone including photos and all. Is there anyway to recover those files? I am not able to plug in my tab as a mass storage device - only media storage and camera mode available in USB.
Someone please tell me how to proceed now? How to use tablet as mass storage device so i can run recovery software??

Anybody???

If your data was wiped during install, you have no recourse. This app should turn device into usb mass storage. I haven't used this app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=in.zatta.USB_switch&hl=en as my rom supports usb, mtp, and ptp.

[Q] [Not Working] USB Mass Storage and ADB

Hello friends, I am facing a problem with USB Mass storage. Please find the case as below.
Previously when I used to connect my phone with my laptop, it used to show a pop-up notification on either I wish to enable USB mass storage mode or just wish to have my phone on charging only. USB debugging was also working like a charm during those days.
Now, from last two days (suddenly) none of the computers (i have tried on almost 10 different laptops) is recognizing my phone. Though this is the problem, it gets charged over USB without any problems.
Could someone of you please help with your expert knowledge??? I have tried downloading certain applications from Play Store also but no luck at all.
In furtherance to this, please note that I clicked on "format/emmc" while installing one of the custom ROMs through CWM recovery before two days and i suspect that this could have caused a problem.
Please help.

Buddy,
Formatting EMMC is just like formatting SD card and EMMC is Internal SD card.
Do one thing backup all your data and then reboot in recovery and there you will find the options:-
Mount & Storage --> Mount USB Storage.
First connect your phone to USB and to the laptop then do the above said if its connected then its working and you only have to clear the defaults of the USB application.
If its not working then try other rom with proper guidance of flashing given by the OP.
Hit Thanks Instead of Saying It.....

I cannot connect with computer via usb

I Instalet many roms and on everyione was working perfectly before some time i instaled viper 1.3.2 and when i conect it to computer my phone is only charging now i instaled cyanogen mod 10.1 its not working again only charging.
I selected file transfer in settings>storage> menu but still nothing can anyone help me please...

ViperS uses MTP (Media Transfer Protocol) and not UMS mode (USB Mass Storage mode) (as like CM, MIUI, etc).
Just go to My Computer and you'll find an entry "HTC Sensation Z710e". Double-click on it and it will show you your SDCard

I checked that already i read on this forum about that but nothing of that is working i also tried on diferent computers first is saying unknown device and after that i try MTP and usb mass but nothing ... Something else

What exactly you want to do ?
If you want to transfer files to phone or take backup of SDCard then boot into 4EXT Recovery > Connect USB cable to phone > Select "Toggle USB storage" (or something like that). Your phone will now show up in My Computer as a new drive. You can do whatever you want including Formatting
Good Luck !!!
