I was wondering if anyone has this problem. A few days ago when I mounted my SD card in usb file transfer mode. I got an errors from Windows saying it detected errors on my drive and i have the option of continue or scan & fix. When I hit continue it seems to work. However, when I hit Scan and Fix, my computer gets blue screened. I tried on another computer and the same thing happened. Any ideas? Not really an issue but more of an annoyance.
I'm running Windows 7 64-bit.

Does it on mine to.
You will need to put the SD card into a standard reader and run scan and fix with it. The HTC Hardware i think causes the issue.
Also, to avoid it from happening in the future use the "Safely Remove" stuff and Unmount the card.

Hello! (first post , have been reading for a while though)
I can't connect the phone to my PC (win7 64bit), not as a mass storage device or with Kies (it worked fine before with my home PC and an XP machine at work).
It stopped working after the PC said "Device drivers installed properly" (or something like that) when I connected it, after that I have'nt been able to make it work as mass storage device on any computer..
Very strange and very annoying!
I'm thinking I might factory reset the phone (would very anti-nice though to loose all apps and stuff), so I thought I'd ask here first if there are any possible solutions..
Thx!
if you open device manager in Win7 x64 do you see it listed as GT-I9000 in Portable Devices ?
that's what it shows in mine, and i'm on x64 Win7
it automatically opens in Mass Storage also works in Kies
WEE!! Got it to work just now!!
Rebooted the phone (as I do every day) and connected it to charge over night, and windows popped up with the "installing device driver blabla dialogue" and suddenly it works!?!
This after not working for at least a week on any computer...
I have no idea what might have caused it, but I'm just happy it works again
Still, very strange...
It shows up in the device manager now, it did'nt before.. Thx for the reply!
On Win XP
is there a certain driver i have to download before using USB Mass Storage option.
all i get are two removable drives icon. but they can't be opened
you should only have 1 removeable device icon, 2 if you have a micro SD card inserted.
if you configure the phone to ask you what to do with the usb during connection, then you can select Kies or Mass Storage
regardless both works fine
i do have two removable drives because of the addition of the sd card
its set on Mass Storage. but it still won't open. im not sure if Windows installed it properly though
the driver details:
driver files- system32\drivers\USBSTOR.sys
does it shows in device manager, as mentioned above ?

After connecting the phone via USB, did tell the phone to Mount the drives?
anyone else encountered this issue?
Is anyone else having trouble connecting their Galaxy to a PC? I don't know whether mine is faulty or not. Downloaded the Samsung Kies software but when I plug in the Galaxy Windows is unable to find a MTP USB device driver and the phone refuses to connect. This happens Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit. Also the Galaxy has a complete fit and keeps flashing between the home screen and MTP application screen while it's connected (wxw.youtube.com/watch?v=R9hdpJPCP-k). And I don't get the usual Android option to mount for file transfer. Am I missing something?

finally managed to fix tis stupid kies connection problem...if anyone encountering the same issue jus do a factory restore n format ur internal sd card
I'm with the DHD for a day and this is so far my only problem...
When I connect the phone using the option, Disk drive (like a usb pen in the PC), when I transfer several files to the disk drive, after some time (most of the times under a minute) the usb disk drive disconnects from the PC because the sdcard is also unmounted from the phone...
Then the only way for the sdcard to reappear on the phone is to restart the phone or to reinsert it on the phone...
I'm with the last firmware (updated yesterday). I only notice this problem today. I left the original cable at home, but I'm using an original cable from nokia (a very small length one). I also used it with a nokia E72 and a Sony X10i and never got any problems...
I'm not detecting any problems with the microsdcard "inside" the phone (I mean on a OS level). It's the same that I used for more that 1 year on my old phone, an Touch HD...
For the matter, I unticked the USB debugging option... and still the same.
Any one as an idea?!? Bug? Bad settings?
i also had probs even getting the phone to link to my win7 x64 system.. after many many reinstalls of software and restarts of phone i was getting sooo wound up with it!!.. i was ready to give up.. i then started messing with my phone settings and disabled the fast boot and restarted the phone normally.. it instanly saw my phone and linked perfectly, ive transfered hundreds of photos onto it and loads of music.. not sure if the fast boot bypasses some non essential programs to enable it to boot so fast.. try disabling fast boot and leave usb debugging enabled (thats what i am using and it seems fine for me).. let me know if this sorts the problem thanks
For the matter, two days ago I tried on my home computer, another hardware system, but with Win7 x64...
I copied files from my computer to the phone and reversed and no problems.... maybe some bad driver installation...
Nevertheless I'm going to try to disable that option and try again...
Oh, by the way,
I'm almost sure that at home when I choosed the option HTC Sync, the sdcard also appeared in my computer...
Here at work it doesn't appear...
Is this right?!?
Ok, I think I found what was the problem...
Some days ago I tried to move all my files from the sdcard to format it due the jerky video problem (to have the sdcard with a 32k cluster). I tried to format also to be sure that this problem would be gone...
To copy/move the files I removed the sdcard to the PC.
I found out that in some files the move/copy process hang out. I couldn't copy/move or deleted those files. I then skipped those files, still there was some files, and eventually I got most things backup to my PC. The strange thing is that not even running several time the chkdsk command it was able to fix the errors of those files.
Then I formatted the sdcard and moved again all my files to it.
I guess I fixed this problem. I still didn't copy/move files using "Connect to a PC as disk drive" although...
i was about too put some of my videos on the tab from my pc so i connected threw usb and it shows a cdrom drive wtf? And the files pop up but it says write protect than everything goes away.
I just tried a extra empty sd card and it does the same thing..
Anyone know whats going on?
all im running is baxbite kernel for the overclock which i been using for the pass week with no problems till today..
I guess no one knows? I looked it up and it seems like its a common problem but i don't see anything about anyone else having this problem with a galaxy tab except me..
Right now im using webhareing too copy my files over wifi from my home network and it works great but not as fast as usb
I just dont get it evertime i connect the tab too my pc it shows a cdrom than the files show up in it but i cant copy stuff over or even delete a file than 30sec later it disappears..
I remember that happening to vibrant phones. The external sd card wasn't mounted properly so the computer saw it as a cd drive.
What is your computer set up? A windows 7 pc installs the correct driver files. A windows xp pc needs you to get the drivers and install them. I pray for people with mac's.
Just search the general section for "windows xp usb drivers". You don't need to install samsung kies.
Hey all,
I have downloaded the Windows 7 64 bit drivers for my Fascinate. Installed them...but when i go to mount my SD card I can see it in Windows Explorer but it says CD drive F: Verizon Mobile. I cannot see anything on my SD card at all. How can I get this mounted. I am rooted and I have USB debugging on. Any other ideas on how to get this to work.
Pull down the notification bar at the top of the phone. Press mount sd card. Your problem mabe deeper than this but I just thought best to start simple. If u still can't get it we need more info like is it DI01,DJ05, or DL09

No, I cannot mount that way. I am on dl09. Very frustrating.

I had the same issue. I flashed Adrynalyne's latest voodoo kernel 01/21 low voltage and it seemed fixed it for me. I'm running DL09 supah clean 04 also.
See here and go to Test 4 this maybe your issue.

This is the official response from Samsung:
"There is no SD card mount issue on Windows OS. After user connects USB cable, Windows OS will recognize the device as CD-Rom, and the ToolLauncher_Bootstrap.exe will be running by autorun function. (WinXP only, Win 7 user should run ToolLauncher_Bootstrap.exe by himself ). At this point either user can ignore the installation of TL and use mass storage directly, or wait 30 secs timeout and the device will be changed to mass storage.
Another option is that user can change the settings -> USB setting to 'Ask on connection' from mass storage(default). It will allow user to go to mass storage directly by selecting mass storage.
But The mass storage is not working on MAC OS from previous version, and We have a fix for that in FROYO release."
Hope this helps.
I have the same issue when using certain kernels not sure if it is in the kernel or not. the only way i am able to mount the sd or use pda net is to plug the phone into the comp and reboot the phone after the phone reboots the comp recognizes it. I know this is not a fix but it does work everytime and the phone is recognized until the next time i reboot my phone without it being plugged into comp. This is a temp fix until you can find a better fix.
I don't know what happened, but I can no longer mount the SD card via USB. I've spent half the afternoon trying to fix the drivers, and I end up in the exact same place I was before.
I'm running Windows 7 64-bit and CyanogenMod 6 RC2 on the phone. I have ADB set up and, to my knowledge, the drivers for it are working. ADB devices recognized my phone.
When I try to mount the SD card, the phone shows "USB storage in use," but it doesn't show up on my computer. Normally I get a little popup asking if I want to open the folder to view files. In Device Manager, it shows a little warning on USB Mass Storage Device which I believe is the phone. If I right-click and go to Properties, is says "This device cannot start. (Code10)" (see first thumbnail).
Here's the weird part: If I boot into recovery and select to mount the storage card, it will mount (see second thumbnail).
Can anyone help me? Thanks in advance.
Did you try it with a different card? Or this card in card reader? You have to rule out simple things first, like weird card corruption.
I've tried a different card. No difference.
I uninstalled all the drivers and restarted my computer. When I plugged the phone in, I got the following message. Something called MTP did not install successfully. Anyone know what to do about this?
Well, after numerous cycles of uninstalling and attempting to reinstall the drivers, I still had no idea what the problem was. I uninstalled all the drivers and ran a utility on my PC to clean and fix problems in the registry. I rebooted it and then plugged the phone in. It installed the drivers and now both ADB and USB storage work.
Strange thing is, I don't see an entry for Android ADB Interface in the device manager any more. I see Android USB Drivers and the USB Mass Storage though, so I guess that's all it needs.
