Hi guys,
I have a T-Mobile Ameo 16Gb but im unable to see the internal storage on the device. All i have in the memory options are Storage Card. Not the internal storage.
Anyone got any ideas?
Presumably you don't have it connected to the PC in 'disk drive ' mode do you?
If that's the case then the drive is demounted from the mobile OS.
Have you tried a soft reet? It may also be worth going Start/settings/connections and tapping USB to PC and making sure Activesync is selected.
If none of that works then I'd try a hard reset and if that doesn't work the device is probably faulty .
Or... somebody has uploaded a rom from X7500/X7501, which does not have drivers for 16Gb Flash Drive.
I'm new to Android custom roms and just flashed my G2x to Hellfire 2.1. Everything went pretty smoothly as I have relatively strong tech knowledge and followed all the guidelines carefully. The phone is now running a lot faster and everything looks great, with the exception of USB storage. After extensive searches I can't seem to find the solution to the problem.
The phone doesn't have an external SD card and I store everything on the internal SD. Under CM settings I have set the phone to use the internal SD. Latest LG G2x USB driver has been installed on Windows.
Now by default, USB debugging on the phone is ON. When I plug in the USB cable, the "Turn on USB storage" screen doesn't show up on phone and no SD drive is detected windows. When I turn USB debugging off, the "Turn on USB storage" screen comes up, and after clicking "On", Windows correctly detects the drive.
But after the phone reboots (USB debugging is now off since I set it off before reboot), the USB stops working again. This time the "Turn on USB storage" screen does show up on the phone, but after clicking it to turn on, Windows does not detect any drive. Basically nothing happens. However, the strange thing is if I go to turn the USB debugging back on, phone again prompts to turn on USB storage, and this time if I turn it on, Windows detects the drive. Then I turn off the debugging again, and it still works fine (screen comes up and Windows can detect).
So basically it works until the next reboot. No matter how the debugging option is set, the USB simply won't work right away. (If it's set to off, the problem described in the previous paragraph applies. If it's set to on, the phone simply won't show the "Turn on USB Storage" screen as stated initially in the post.
I have gone back and force and tweaked various settings all with the same result. I have also made sure to test this on different computers with fresh installed G2x drivers and they all exhibit the same problem.
Your help will be appreciated.
Assuming you flashed it correctly using nulifier to wipe and than flashed I would reboot to recovery go to advanced and fix permissions... Reboot turn debugging on and check use internal storage. The reboot again and than see if that fixes it for you.. I have 2.1 flashed and when I mount both sd's mount internal and external so it should be working for you if not you might have a corrupted download and would have to redownload and flash again

Do you mean you have both internal and external SD, and when you plugin the USB cable (I assume you have USB debugging on), both cards mount to the OS as two drives? Could you please do me a favor by taking out the external SD, and see if the internal SD would still mount correctly?
And btw are you mounting under Windows or Linux?
Thanks a lot.

I finally got an external SD in. I reflashed, left USB debugging on. When I plugin the USB cable, the phone's "Turn On USB Storage" screen doesn't come up, but I noticed that in the pull down's notification/running it's there, below the "USB debugging turned on" ,so if I click that, the "Turn On USB" screen shows up, and after clicking to turn on, both drives mount on Windows.
Is this how your phone behaves too? If yours actually have the "Turn On USB Storage" screen pop up on front (just like the stock ROM does), what do you think is causing mine to behave in this way?
Thanks again.
Yesterday I tried to partition my internal storage using minitool because I was getting a insufficient memory message from the google app store. Everything worked out fine and the partition had been created, I turned usb storage off and when I went to pull the usb cord from my nexus s I got a message saying that my internal sd card had been damaged and asked me to reformat. I dismissed the error message because I did not want to format right there but after that my phone can't detect my usb storage (16gb internal) and neither can I connect to my computer and access the files on my phone. I'm using paranoidandroid 3.00. Even when my Android debugging is on the phone still can't connect to my computer. And I've tried to unmount and mount using cwm a number of times but that isn't working either. I also tried to factory reset the phone but I still can't detect my usb storage. My phone basically says I have 0.98gb total space. I have no access to my internal storage at all. I can't flash any different roms or flash anything for that matter. My photo gallery is also saying that I have no external storage available. I need to fix this ASAP. What can I do to fix this problem?
Similar problem
I'm having a similar problem. Switched to a different phone and gave my wife NS4G, so I wiped everything, including the external storage via TWRP v2.4. No problem connecting to my PC, but on the phone in settings>storage, there was only 0.98 in Internal Storage and 2GB in USB Storage. No clue what could've caused that. Currently searching the web for answers, and will report back if I come across anything

I fixed the problem using Wugs Root Toolkit. I didn't want to just sit around and wait till a different fix just magically appeared. Basically just had to flash back to stock Jelly Bean 4.1.2 using the toolkit and unroot the device and then do a factory reset. The SD card got formatted after doing all that. You should try it out. :good:
My XT1540 was updated today and noticed a few minor inconveniences.
When connecting to my Linux pc, I no longer can get a MTP connection. I can still get a PTP connection.
When connecting using WIN 7, I can get a MTP connection with the internal storage, however, I am limited to PTP accessing the SD Card, only the Android and DCIM directories are available.
ADB seems to work fine with either connection. I had no issues using either Linux or Windows when on 5.1.1.
Is there a way to restore full MTP capability?

Is your sd card merged as internal? If so, unmerge and mount is the only solution right now as the SD card becomes encrypted once switched over.

I did not set my card up as internal as that basically incorporates the card into the OS and eliminates the original intent of the SD Card. Basically makes the card invisible and no longer available to the user as he pleases. It appears Google is trying to take away the portability and convenience of a SD Card. I definitely want to portability and separation from the OS.
BTW....After further research on this topic I see many others are having the identical issues across other platforms. No solution found yet.

I found a solution from user named Peter Oravecz.
So basically we need to delete the cache and the data for the System apps named "External Storage and Media Storage".
Goto
Phone settings-> Apps -> Tap three dots on tiop right to select select Show system apps -> select External Storagge and Media storage and delete data ana cache.
Then REBOOT THE PHONE.
this shud work.
Worked for me.

I will give this a shot... to bad Motorola didn't tell the soak testers this, almost everyone who left their sd card as portable storage (classic mode) lost USB MTP access to the card.

Yup, figured that out already...
But if to believe this
https://motorola-global-portal.custhelp.com/app/answers/prod_answer_detail/a_id/109134/p/1449,9582
going to internal mode will give no access to sd card at all... what they were thinking in Google...hmm...
Of course, we can teach PCs and software to see ext4 - but why o why...

I tried that, but I see no option to delete cache.
So you now have full MTP access to your SD Card?
I am also interested if anyone else had success with with a MTP connection using Linux

No... The point was if Google gave us direct access to the card as internal storage, we would need ext4 support. Was just a wishful thinking conversation.

Well, Apps - Show system ones - go into app settings, then Storage - and then U'll see Wipe Data and Wipe Cache.

Thanks. I did not look under storage. Still made no difference with Linux, I get PTP but not a MTP connection for internal storage. No access to the SD Card. I will try with Windows later tonight, but I bet there will be no change (MTP for internal data and restricted to PTP for SD Card).

Try making MTP default one in Developer Options - Select USB Config. Obviously this is not the solution as to mounting issue, but might force phone to choose MTP as default when cable plugs in.

I have tried all that several times with no success. Can you confirm your PC OS and if you have full MTP access to the SD Card? Not PTP access where you only see the media directories and files.

Yes, I've got access to my books, music, downloads and so on.
This is both Windows 7 and OSX.

Thanks. After wiping data and cache for external storage and media storage, I have full MTP with Windows 7. Unfortunately, my Ubuntu 12.04 does not recognize the MTP connection. But it will connect when I select PTP.
OTG didn't work also. On my build. It's the same as the first update. Was fixed later.

Actually, after clearing data and cache on these two items my attempts to access phone via USB are even worse know... In Windows 7 it just says "Unknown USB device" and the peripheral connect/disconnect tone goes off repeatedly, can't access anything anymore. But in Linux Mint I was able to access both internal storage and SD card now. Weird.
EDIT: Hmm... copying files to Linux from the SD card failed after about 1GB, as soon as I moved my laptop a bit. I might have a bad cable (this is a really old Samsung charger & cable I have carried in my laptop bag for traveling for probably 4 years). Not putting much stock in this test at this time until I can get home tomorrow night and use a known good cable.
EDIT2: Got a different cable from the front desk at the hotel, was able to copy about 8GB of music and pictures from SD card to my Linux Mint PC with no issues... Windows is still unable to recognize the device at all (might be something in my work laptop, but I think it had worked before and any other USB peripheral works fine)
Hello,
Wondering if Nokia 6310 (2021) supports AT-commands?
I want to read out the internal memory / contacts / SMS etc. (the device does not have a memory card, only internal memory).
If I connect the phone to my computer using the USB-cable it does not mount the internal storage, I read somewhere that I might need to insert an SD-Card in order for the internal storage to be visible / mountable.
Any ideas?
Best Regards - Karl
As per its product description it has a microSDHC-card slot.
Youd have to search online but most likely it does
If you have your developer options enabled there is usually a default Usb ... for pictures mount as storage cd drive ...
Or you havent installed the driver for yur device on your pc

Yes it does have such a slot but I do not have a (micro)SDHC-card and want to dump the internal storage.

This phone runs Nokia S30+ and not Android...
As soon as you power on the phone ( read: phone gets booted ) its internal SD-card gets mounted by default where it doesn't matter what OS it is based on.

Yes but how can I access it through a computer? A microSDHC-card mounts as an external disk in Windows that I know but nothing happens when I plug the phone in without a microSDHC-card.
Tried various settings on the phone such as "USB Mass Storage Device" etc.
My recommendation: Contact Nokia's help center to get helped
