What HTC/Android setting allows phone storage access from Windows 7? - Android General

I just want to plug a mini USB cable from the HTC One M7 to my notebook and have Windows 7 recognize the phone storage as a new volume in Windows Explorer.
I used to be able to do this with my HTC ATT Aria.
Thanks for any help.
Android version
5.0.2
HTC Sense version
6.0
Software number
7.23.502.4

Mass Storage, File Transfer, or MTP would (should) work.

[Q] Oxygen Rom on Desire (Bravo) SD to PC transfer problem

Hello everybody,
I have small problem with my HTC Desire. I have installed Oxygen rom and since then I'm not able to copy large files from phone to PC.
I connect to pc via usb cable, start usb storage on the phone, it appears in my windows system, when I start copying large files (large I mean >500 MB) at some point of the time transfers stops, phone disconnets usb storage (changes color from green to orange) and windows says that it can not find the file. Rebooting does not solve the issue.
This doesn't work only while copying from the phone to pc. PC to SD transfer works withouth any issues. In recovery mode everything works fine so it's clearly fault of the software or its configuration.
My hardware/software data:
HTC Desire GSM with Samsung 32GB class 10 sd card
Tested on 2 PC with windows 7 32bit and windows 7 64bit
Android 2.3.7
Kernel 2.6.35.14_r3-stable [email protected] #1
Baseband version 32.56.00.32U_5.17.05.23
Mod version Oxygen-2.3.2-Bravo
Build number GWK74
Oxygen rom was installed on fully wiped phone.
I would appreciate some help with this, Oxygen rom is so far the best OS I had on my phone but this makes my ilfe a bit more difficult.
Thank you in advance,
Cheers,
Forget it, I fixed it by reformating the card.

[SOLVED Partially, breaks ADB] Can't use USB Storage in AOSP ROMs

Is there a certain driver I need to use for USB Mass Storage access? When I use a Sense ROM, Windows recognizes the phone as an MTP device, but when I use an AOSP ROM, the phone shows up as a "My HTC" device in the Device Manager, but never shows the phone's sdcard as a drive. Is there a certain driver I need to use? I'm running Win7 x64.
EDIT: Turns out my computer was using a really old HTC driver (from 2008) to identify the phone. I let it update and find another driver for it, and it used the generic USB Mass Storage device driver and added the Linux File-CD Gadget USB Device to the Disk Drives tree. I'm not sure how this will affect how Windows recognizes the phone when I use a Sense ROM, but for now this works.
tl;dr If the phone shows up as My HTC in Device Manager and doesn't show up as a USB Mass Storage Device/Linux File-CD Gadget USB Device when you enable USB Mass Storage Mode on the phone, try letting Windows find a new driver for it automatically.
Be warned that this will probably break ADB access, and you will need to keep the HTC Driver on hand to switch to when you do need ADB.
Re: Can't use USB Storage in AOSP ROMs
I have the same question. Mine just shows up as "removable storage", and I can't access anything. I instead transfer files wirelessly over WiFi using ES File Explorer, but I'd still like to know how to access the phone through USB.

Are you mounting as usb storage when prompted by phone? Disable HTC sync on the computer?

I am indeed mounting when prompted, and I'm not sure how I'd disable HTC Sync short of deleting or otherwise uninstalling it.

[Q]how to put device in mass-storage mode

Hello,
I pluged the device to my laptop (win 7 pro 64bit) and have chosen the driver mode, installed the drivers, then i want to access the mass storage mode to transfer the files using file commander, but the only modes are charge, MTP, PTP, driver disk....i cant see the internal and external storage as a disk in any mode. Please how to fix this?
I might be wrong, but I do not think Lollipop supports USB mass storage anymore . You should still be able to transfer files in and out via Windows Explorer using MTP mode. And I actually like that because I no longer have to worry about ejecting the device before unplugging.
Usb Mass Storage (UMS) is no more officially supported since Jelly Bean 4.2.2. Nevertheless we can find some app/mod enabling it (on playstore) but I don't know if or works with 5.0 + and root is needed.

Trouble transfering files between PC and HTC One A9

Hi! I'm running the latest Cyanogenmod on my One A9, everything works fine, except when I want to transfer files between my PC and my A9. When I plug it in to the PC it just doesn't recognize it. It only recognizes it when I have "charge only".
Any help is appreciated.
