[Completed] Garmin usb mass storage not detetced - XDA Assist

Hi
Can anyone please enlighten me on how to fix my Garmin 660 GPS
My issue started when I plugged the unit into the computer to perform a routine map update
I had been having some issues with a few of the media files that I play so I thought I would replace the MP3 files on the MicroSD card only this this I left it in the unit
I usually format the card and install new files separately from the unit but I formatted the card yet by some magical god like intervention the internal storage was also wiped.
I would suspect that Garmin would not make it this easy to delete important files as now the unit is not detected by any computer. The unit has deleted the maps.
It just starts and restarts over and over - I finally managed to get a hard reset to actually do something at all. Now and then it will bring up the software (no maps)and will Bluetooth but a hard reset every time to make this happen and does not always work - basically it a useless device.
None of the Garmin programs can see the GPS - I have backup of the device but no help - I have the factory software no help, the factory reset - partial but does not load the drivers - tried many Gamin driver update - took it back to supplier (GPS specialist) they said have to send to Garnin
I ride a bike and it is hard without the GPS to find my way around plus it include music and my phone plus it cost over $600
surely it is possible to access the root directory and replace what ever files it needs
My question is
How can I get the device to open a port to access the internal storage and load what ? to get the USB port functioning when it plugged into the computer.
I have basic computer knowledge - If anyone knows how to fix this issue please be kind enough to explain the method in easy to follow instructions and exactly what file or files I need and where I can obtain them and how to install them,
Can the port be forced to open -I tried a couple of methods from the net but didn't work for me
Please help if you can
Many thanks for reading and all suggestions would be much appreciated

[Completed] Retreive Files from Bootlooped ATM7029

A friend of mine that I gave a tablet to left it in a hot car and now it is bootlooping. She has a bunch of photos and documents that were written on the tablet that she would like to get back. The only trouble is that this tablet is one of those Chinese Action ATM7029 clones with little to no information on the internet about them. I figured out the combos to get into the stock recovery and do have access to SD cards to load recovery images onto it. ADB bridge / debugging was never turned on in the tablet so going into recovery does not create an ADB link. Here are the details:
Device: FastTouch 10" 8gb
Android: 4.2.2
Processor: ATM7029
Memory: 8gb flash / 1gb ram
ADB Enabled: No, USB Debugging was never turned on
Recovery: Accessible, but only stock version
SD Slot: yes, 8 and 32gb SD Cards are available to be used
Computers and Operating systems: I have a Mac with 10.8 with ADK 'installed', access to a windows 7 machine available
(Amazon link to the device: amazon_com/gp/product/B00ECKG0XK/)
Here is what I have done:
1) Got into recovery
2) Tried wiping cache and rebooting, still stuck
3) Tried ADB from a Mac machine, not recognized (ADB was not turned on in tablet)
4) Looked for any sort of recovery for the device. Sketchy possibles, no direct compatible found
5) Posted here.
Here is what I want to do:
1) Get the files off (if possible)
2) Get the device working, even if that requires wiping the files out (if possible)
Can anyone point me to a CWM or TWRP that would work with this device and let me form an ADB link to backup with? Even if the recovery ran out of ramdisk and didn't install that would be enough. I really want to get those files back out before doing dastardly things to the device. Thanks in advance for any help that can be provided.
Hi!
I can find nothing useful about that device on XDA. It is possible its suffered a hardware failure from the extreme heat and may be unrecoverable.
However, Please ask in the following general thread. Perhaps you will find some help.

Thanks for the advice. I wondered if I should post it there first. Will anyone be mad if I just copy paste that over?

[Q] OnePlus One USB and OTG storage issue and TWRP

After a few weeks since I got my OnePlus, I'm having a strange problem. Whenever I try to copy any sort of data to/from the phone, a few seconds after task has been started I get this error
"Cannot copy file.xxx
The device has either stopped responding or has been disconnected"
Also, the OTG storage devices get unmounted randomly and notification pops up
"USB storage unexpectedly removed"
I reached the concusion (like most of you would) that maybe USB port is malfunctioning.
But here is the twist:
If I connect my phone in MTP mode while in TWRP, the copying/pasting just occurs successfully each time. Even if I mount OTG in TWRP, USB storage works as it should without any issues.
I've already tried:
-changing different ROMs (PA, CM)
-flashing stock kernel, recovery and rom
-using different USB cables
-using different PC
-changing in between MTP and PTP
-copying directly to root, folders and sub-folders
But each time, the copying and OTG storage fails while booted into OS but works normally while using TWRP
[BTW I created accidentally created a duplicate thread in development section which I can't remove]

Hello friends,
I have seen many people's reporting issues with oneplus one OTG/USB connection.
Sometimes it works for few minutes and then disconnects. But it works fine in trwrp mode.
I too have same problem and have tried various methods to resolve the issue,
One of the solution i tried is flashing cm12 nightly..but the issue resurface very often.
The work around i found is " To disable the mobile data connection and then connect the OTG.
It should resolve your OTG problem, meanwhile developers provides some concrete solution.

[Completed] Recover data of Zif Tablet with damaged touchscreen

Hello.
I hope someone can provide guidance with this problem.
First info about the problem:
1) Manfacturer: Zif
2) Model T722G
3) Android version: N/A
Problem description: The touchscreen is completely black an unresponsible after the tablet got water inside of it, already opened by some amateur so I don´t think it can be fixed.
Goal: Try to save the contents of the internal memory of the device (if possible), pictures, music, videos.
When the devices is plugged to PC it shows some activity, on the device manager, the device is recognized as Linux File-CD Gadget USB device, however no storage device is detected.
Additional details: Sometimes when connected it also shows MT6577 VCOM device for a brief period of time.
A couple of times it appeared as storage device (with a sort of camera logo I forgot the exact name) and two unit letters appeared on the storage manager, but it didn´t show on the file explorer. I tried a recomendation of uninstalling the driver, but then it never appeared again.
Any help would be appreciated.

[Completed] GPS unlock

Hello, I'd like to kindly ask for some assistance.
I got a GPS device Telesystem ts 8511 running on windows ce 5.0. I tried to update maps on it but it wouldn't let me, beacuse of licenses. So I tried to unlock it with Miopocket. But in the process I have formatted SD card on which there was quite a lot of factory installed GPS program and navigation didn't work anymore, nor did Miopocket (couldn't find a way to instal it). So I found a way to rest the device by using files providet by manufacturer on it's website. that procedure lead me to point where device is asking for SD card I formatted earlier.
I'm triying to get to the os in the device and install some other navigation app on it.
I would really appreciate some help.
