Hi, my device's screen broke and I got a new phone, I want to transfer some media from my old OPO to my new device, but I cannot use the computer because it wont recognize the OPO as a MTP ( since the nwe Marshmallow default usb thingy) so.. when connecting to PC it sees the device but doesnt allow acces to the storage thus I cannot pull files from it..
any suggestions?

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 !!!

Did you try another computer?
That happens to me if I have the phone locked when I plug it in. As soon as I unlock the phone the internal storage pops up. If that isn't what is happening to you then I don't know what the problem is.
i suggest u to try AirDroid instead. It seams wireless without needing usb cord.
How can I use my OnePlus One as USB mass storage device? I dislike MTP.
I do like this-
1. Switch off the phone.
2. Connect to PC
3. Enter recovery mode
Now drivers will load automatically and you can exchange data in Mass Storage Mode.

Really? It will be detected as a USB drive??? Is this with a particular recovery or will TWRP do it? I'd like to add a partition to my phone that will contain a bootable Linux distribution so that I can use my phone as a rescue disk. Would this be possible?

Hi. I am using latest TWRP recovery and Oneplus is responding well invariably.

Goodluck if u r planning to try it.

Will look into this. Thanks!
I just looked into it and got nothing. It talks over usb, but no USB Mass Storage support (reading Linux dmesg to test). I looked over TWRP, and it looks like the disabled USB Mass Storage when Android shifted away from having a separate FAT filesystem you could mount under Windows. Your SD Card is now a directory under /data and most kernels don't have the ability to even export USB Mass Storage anymore because, as ext4, Windows will tell you that the drive is unformatted and ask you to format it for you!! And that would mean losing the entire /data partition. Basically USB Mass Storage is gone. I'm thinking with a custom kernel and maybe compiling TWRP myself, I might be able to get it back, but its going to be far from trivial. I think the end result (a recovery system that I can boot a PC from in an emergency with plenty of tools) will make a great addition to my phone.
TWRP is supposed to support MTP now, but its not working for me. I end up using USB OTG for "bare clean wipe" flashes.
Any news? Unfortunately, since it was upgraded to lollipop I can not connect the OnePlus one to my car radio as a removable disk. It remains uncomfortable leaving your phone in recovery to use UMS
Hello everyone,
I have a weird problem with my oneplus one currently the device doesn't have any rom installed because I have wiped the whole device and after that when I was trying to install the rom using usb otg via twrp it won't allow me to select the usb-otg as it says 0MB then I thought to install the rom via fastboot method but adb is not detecting my device. I have tested all the available drivers still its not detecting. Is there any way to fix my device.

TWRP supports MTP i.e.,you can transfer Rom zip to your Internal storage and then flash that.

Thanks for your reply, but when I connect the device to my PC or laptop its not detecting so how come I transfer the files to the internal memory.

Connect device when in TWRP mode,then head to Device Manager and you should see unknown device there,click on update driver and let the windows search and install mtp driver for you.

Everything was perfectly fine until today when I booted into twrp to flash a new rom and forgot to copy the rom.zip.
So from twrp itself I connected the usb cable to my Win10 PC, it detected my phone but in My computer/ Windows Explorer, phone wasn't showing up to copy the data from my pc.
I tried different usb ports but same issue.
I booted into phone os and then tried and then it showed into windows explorer.
Its only that from twrp it isn't showing in explorer where earlier it used to show to copy files.
What could be the reason? How to solve this.
after you get into the TWRP you need to navigate to Mount options and then turn on MTP there.

Once u boot into recover go to Mount options and then turn on MTP there. if this also dont work check ur driver installed in pc or not also try formatting data at worst case.
