Ideos X5 CD-ROM and Read-Only Problem (Little Donate Award) - Huawei Ideos X5 U8800

My U8800 appears as a READ-ONLY CD-ROM drive when it's connected through USB. "The USB Storage Is In Use Screen" is on.But i can't write anything my sdcard or internel card.
Under device manager, it shows up as Android Adapter USB Device
I tried : MIUI , Oxygen , CM7 but same reason
And I use CWM 4
What can i do about this ?
If someone tells me how to solve this problem, I will donate him $10
Thanks Everbody

Hi there. This is my first reply to a problem. I think i have it figured out.
Check this:
Menu -> Settings -> Applications -> Development:
On this screen make sure USB debugging is unchecked.
When you plug the phone into your computer, then a dialog should pop up on your phone asking you to enable USB storage mode. Tap "Turn on USB storage".
It may ask you to confirm. Tap "OK".
Good luck. I hope that helps you.

It's very much difficult than that. Well the only way to restore your usb problem is going back to stock and after that you only can install a 2.2 custom rom, after you switch to 2.3 your problem will appear again! If you go to "device manager" on windows when U use 2.2, U see that the phone is corrected installed, but when u connect with 2.3 rom, the device it's not corrected installed and therefore only mounted as CD-ROM... I know that, 'cause I have the same problem and tried all this options. I installed usb drivers that huaei give us on their site, but the problem persists. I tried with both CWM recoveries and both work good on 2.2, stock or custom, but not on 2.3....
Last but not least, go check your imei on system, almost sure U got a 0 on that too, as me. So this is some problem with 2.3 roms that "f*cked up" our phone. Altough usb problem is reversible when installed stock rom, the problem with the imei persists after a stock rom install...
Hope it help some people somehow!
(sorry for bad bad english)

Try uninstalling device drivers, then reinsert the phone and let it install.
What do you see on the CD rom? The sdcard contents?

Hello if you are with cm7, go to definitions - about phone and project menu. Testes other options for usb.

Did U check your IMEI? Please confirm that, 'cause If U have IMEI=0 and usb problem as me or other guy I know, maybe the problems are related to each other, and forget easy options, i tried almost everything, almost sure that when install 2.3 roms. it changes some values and the phone goes nuts, 'cause if you use 2.2 it works correctly as a normal usb device!

Snake_boss, same here...
Imei 0
Cd-rom when usb connecting
When turning wifi on i get system boot and after this i get ERROR message
Tested with cm7, oxygen and miui
Everything works perfect with stock rom or Flb (the one I user now)

[Release] Clockwork Recovery Port. Latest release V4 fixes graphical issues

I take no responsibility for any harm that comes to your phone as a result of applying this mod.
I suggest people start using genokolar's version instead, available here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1067490
Clockwork Recovery port based on Koush's 3.0.2.8 source.
Available here: http://www.multiupload.com/DQGL84P3A5
Source available on my github: https://github.com/stockwell/u8800-clockwork-recovery-port (bit messy.. will do a cleanup when I have the time)
BIG THANKS TO 357546 for creating the new kernel!!
v4 Notes:
- Now using 357546's kernel with fixed framebuffer driver capable of RGB565!
- Seems to be fully functional aside from rom manager integration
- Some small cleanups in init scripts and sbin
Detailed Installation:
- Ensure that there are no Huawei rom updates on your SD-Card in the dload folder and unplug the phone from your computer
- Boot to bootloader mode by pressing the up and down volume keys and pressing the power button. This will show a plain violet/purple screen.
- Connect the phone to your computer. In windows it will automatically mount one mass storage device which corresponds to the /cust_backup folder on your phone. If your OS supports EXT3 it will mount multiple devices, look for the one with an images directory and this is the device to use.
- In the images directory rename recovery.img to something else (ie. recovery.bak) and then copy the new recovery image in its place.
- Unmount the mass storage device to ensure all cached writes are completed and then disconnect from the computer. Exit bootloader mode by pulling out the battery.
You now have the clockwork recovery installed. Boot to recovery by holding the volume up and power buttons to turn the phone on.
wow!
hope for a perfect recovery!
Any feedback on this?

good news!!!
seems that the32bpp mode is a big problem
hope to see changes!!!
Good stuff man, thanks for the work you're doing.
good job bro
Thanks for the support! I've got an issue though, I've applied the recovery but when I press the vol buttons and power I am taken to the purple screen instead of the green recovery menu. V2 worked fine though......not sure if anyone else is having the same issue?
VolUP+VolDown+Power=Purple screen
VolUp+Power=Recovery screen
Got it, thanks!

Hey, just a question on that topic - I goto 'Backup Current ROM' and it asks me to install clockmod recovery, and asks to verify what model of phone; obviously u8800 isn't an option on the list.
So.... Aroo? Sorry if I'm missing something obvious
actually you don't need to install rom manager
just follow the instructions in this post

Yep, so just skip using the app entirely. Got it

When you are in recovery after the last step which says so, are you just suppose to take the first option "reboot system now"?
Sorry, completely beginner with these kinds of stuff.
Edit: I guess I should choose backup and restore> backup but when i do so it says "Can't mount SD-card"
I have serious problem by finding the bootloader drivers! The driver update is failing all the time? Do some of you have the driver folder you can give me?
THX!

Feel free to just have a poke around and see what it can do. At the moment the only really useful thing is backup and restore.
I'm not sure why it won't mount the sd. I should mention that it does not use the internal 'sd-card' so you'll get that error if you don't have an external sd-card inserted.

I didn't think that drivers were needed, it should just come up with the mass storage device. From what I remember there are two other devices that windows detects but cannot find drivers for, but don't stress about that as it's not needed. Try it again and see how it goes, it may have mounted but you were stressing about the drivers so missed that it was working.

Galaxy S2 - Bunch of Questions

I have a few questions regarding Kies, Contacts, and USB mode to all the pro's out there -
I only get the following option when I connect the phone to the PC Settings --> USB Mode--> USB Mass Storage. Is this normal or should there be more options offered such as - Kies, PC Studio, Mass Storage? The Galaxy S (Captivate) offered a prompt as to which mode you wanted to connect the phone in whenever it was plugged in. I don't get any option like that. As soon as the device is plugged in (in idle mode) a window pops- up --> MTP Application - Connected (Press the home key to quit Samsung Kies)
Is there a specific way I need to connect the phone in to Kies? Kies displays only 2 options to me -
Add file to GT-I9100
Add folder to GT-I9100
I have tried 2 different computers, but its the same on both of them. I am using Kies version 2.0.1.11053_99 (which according to Kies is the latest version)
Display Options under Contacts shows only Phone and Google. it does not display SIM. I have already reset the phone once. Do I need to do something else? Since I am new to the forum, I am unable to add any screenshot links. But if someone can help me, I would gladly PM them the screenshots. Or you could look at photobucket for my album under nit407.
Thanks for your help.

Ok OP, in order for Kies to see the GSII you need to be on kies mode.
Make sure first this box is unchecked, go to: Settings=>Applications=>Development=>USB Debugging make sure this box is unchecked and then re connect your GSII into your USB cable and open Samsung Kies, it will recognize it immediately.
Good luck.
And make sure you're using the TWLauncher, not a 3rd party launcher.

You can not add contacts directly to the SIM card, neither can see them unless you have copied them to Phone memory/Google. But I have heard that the SIM option is now included in latest 2.3.4 firmware, but as I am yet to test it can't confirm.

My KIES doesn't work anymore ive asked the question a few times but no one seems to know why, ive done what you've said (Settings=>Applications=>Development=>USB Debugging), ive tried on 3 different browsers, a couple of different internet connections, turned off firewall,etc,etc but every time it just times out when i try and connect on my laptop, it has only ever worked once for me, im running cognition 1.15.
I don't find KIES a necessity but it would be nice if it worked (and to find out how to get it working!!)

I dont know if it is the rom problem or what,,,but many users with stock rom also had this problem,,,,just uninstall kies,,,then delete the remaining kies files(there are files left even after uninstallation in the kies folder),,then reinstall the latest kies,,,conecct ur phone to ur pc(usb debugging unchecked)it ll reinstall ur phone's drivers,,and all should be fine then.
there are many complaints of kies not working fine on laptops,,,but if u use a desktop it ll definitely work...
Hope that helps.

Thanks guitarmafia. I am trying this on my desktop now. Regarding firmware upgrade, when I click on "Check for Updates", I get a message "Connection to Server Failed". I am in the US with an unlocked S2 from India. Would that be the reason or just because Samsung hasn't release the new version officially yet. Any idea?

HELP External SD Issues

After rooted the official gingerbread my device was never the same.
Let me try to explain what is happening to see if someone can help.
Official roms:
When I turn my device to PC via USB and then choose the option Mount USB Storage what happens is in the device the Android stays Green with the option below to mount storage, the SD card is apparently un-mounted from device but in the PC I can see the SD card content normally and see it as a removable storage drive
Custom roms:
When I turn my device to PC via USB and then choose the option Mount USB Storage what happens is in the device the Android stays Green with the option below to mount storage, the SD card is apparently un-mounted from device but in the PC I can see the SD card content but can’t make any changes as it opens up as a CD drive. Imagine you put a CD/DVD in your drive you can see all the files but you cannot write on it.
What can I do as seems to be a deep system alteration that won’t change by doing anything at all such as flashing new roms, changing complete content of pink screen, factory resets, etc, etc.
Can someone plz help me with this?
try this with cm7
settings->about phone->project menu->USE GOOGLE USB
I stuck with 2.3 official again!!!
I think I going to deliver my phone to TMN and say that got ****ed up after official upgrade instalation
I've read somewhere that the TMN ones (or some of them) are called "black sheep" since they have some problems (installing other roms I think), maybe your problems where there all along and the updates brought them to the surface...
Yeah, send it back
Yes I know, but I got lucky as my device is like a Hummer.Mine is not.
Goes over of it all, until I messed up... lolol
druida did you format the sd card on the pc and chnage the partition size?
I have the device partitions resized months ago.
yes card was formated and formated and formated.

I have a so called "black sheep" and official 2.3.5 is rooted and runnin' flawlessly.
try revert to 2.2.2 using internal sd card.
I got it at last doing this:
Dial * # * # 2846579 # * # *
Background Setting > USB ports setting > choose "Normal Mode" and then rebooted.
The option that was by default and was giving me all this trouble was "Manufacture mode".
Tried to choose "Google Mode" but after reboot revert back to "Manufacture mode" again.
This way every time I connect the USB and choose the option Mount Usb Storage the SD was getting unmounted in the device but in the PC was showing as removable disk giving me full access.
When I unplug the cable I had to mount the card again.
****ing weird!!!!

no they are not (me +2other friends have such phones). it's hapenning the same as before: people messing up.
Well, this problem is not related to 2.3.5 update, but with updates in general, 'cause i have it about a month ago. Same thing as you, but if U use a 2.2 custom ROM (flb or void) you should mount usb properly. If U go to device manager you will see that the drivers aren't properly installed.
Altough I don´t know the exact time, i think my probelm begins when after flashing a ROM I got the blue screen and needed to install b138 elisa. I guess after we get a blue screen the phone never is the same.
BTW i got 0 imei. And have an theory to this to. The IMEI are related to an operator, so when flashing a official rom not from operator, maybe the phone goes crazy and the IMEI begins to shown 0, it's not a big deal, since we can communicate normally with people.
so how do I install the drivers correctly?
I found a way to revert from 2.3 and I'm in MIUI again but USB issue still there shiiiiiiit

I d0n't lnow, i don't have an solution, I install some drivers that are in huawei server, but with no luck.
The main point is: using a 2.2 rom, all ok, upgrade to a 2.3 rom, and U have problems, so the problem it's not on pc and in hardware, the problem somehow is software.
What I'm wondering it's that the official 2.3.5 help with this problem, but with your report the hope dissapear...
yes the problem is in the device nt in PC.
I think its missing the adb USB drivers inside the device.
and yes its software problem not hardware
Druida69,
Is your IMEI 0 ?
Do you have wifi ERROR in 2.3 Custom Roms ?
I have that USB problem since I tried to format SD Card directly from the mobile, with CM7... all problems started there... and there is another user over here that made the same with MIUI.

ME! Me Me! lol
I have this problem, but don't have problems with wi-fi, my imei is 0 also, but if you use custom or stock 2.2 the usb works fine, so don't think that the problem is caused by formating the sd... I guess is that the libraries in 2.3 somehow changed, i guess the libraries from geno changed a while ago, and therefore this bug appears. It's not for everyone 'cause we all know that x5 have personnality, so...
regarding IMEI yes its 0.
I don't know when it happen and how it was before as I never look for it, up to this moment.
Regarding the USB, I think start to happen when I tried to root the official 2.3.
All drivers in computer are fine as I uninstall them and install all again just to make sure.
Something change something deep inside the phone software and mess all of it.
I manage to do a shortcut though. In official 2.3 you can mount usb storage again if you do this:
dial *#*#2846579#*#*
then you will be inside Project Menu.
Go to Background setting > USB ports setting and you will see these options:
Normal Mode
Google Mode
CTS test mode
Manufacture mode
Authentication mode
Other Mode
By default all systems are with Google Mode activated.
Change to Normal Mode and it solve the problem.
If you try to change this option in CM7 for example, won't work, odd but I don't know why...
Hello !
This USB issue happens to me since CM7 (imei 0, wifi error...). And it happens with all roms (even 2.2.2 stock rom)
I can use usb storage, but in the end I have to manualy mount card again.
With 2.3.5 Official I went into Project Menu and was already in Manufacture Mode, if I change it to Google Mode everything works normally... but after a reset setup returns back to Manufacture Mode.
It is a solution... temporary... but it is
why dont u switch back to cm7 or oxygen and give it a try . surely there is some problem with official 2.3 , mine sometimes says " sd card damaged and stuff .format ...

As I said before, this problem, regardeless appears more often now, it's not related with the update to official 2.3.5 since I and at least to people more, have this problem before official beta rom appears... It is related to the process of upgrading any rom, and I think it happens when we get a pink screen...

"Select USB Configuration" message not appearing when connected to pc - [MI A1].

"Select USB Configuration" message not appearing when connected to pc - [MI A1].
1 week since I updated to oreo 8.1 and just two days after the update I again connected my MI A1 to my Well-Drivered PCas usually I'd do to transfer media, when I noticed that "Select USB Configuration" is no more prompting me in the notification bar. The phone charges though, as it normally would on a PC. I googled a lot and found nothing of importance as there are only MTP-related issues for Redmi Note 3/3Pro/Note 4 users and not exactly the one that I'm having right now.
I have thoroughly checked for any third-party app or Device Admin App which could probably be potentially & silently installed as adware/malware but found none. Cleaned all the Apps' Caches, unused data, corpsed folders, etc. with SD Maid Pro just now but the problem still persists. I didn't find any dedicated YT video related to this particular problem.
Please help, I have lots of data to be transferred to my PC to be safely backed up.
Waiting for your valuable response(s)...
Hey buddy I am Having the same problem.
I haven't found any solution yet.
If you have found one then pls let me know.
And if you haven't found the solution then for file transfer you can use xender, airdrop etc. Apps
Same here. On August patch, it wasn't reading at all. I reflashed July patch and the problem was lessen a bit because this time it's a hit or miss. Sometimes it reads my phone but most of time it doesn't. I tried different computer and cords as well.
However, in Fastboot mode when connected, the phone can be read perfectly.
Have anyone of you tried to reset the USB debugging authorization, you find this under developer options. Maybe you have to do a restart after it and than reconnect to your PC.

Yes have done that too
I didn't face any issues with the usb connection with MTP or ADB debugging on the 8.1 July and August stock rom. Its probably a config issue or a loose connection on the usb port. Trying using another cable and replug the cables on the pc as well.

so, you want to transfer your files from the MiA1 to your PC, am I correct?!
if yes
when you connect the phone via the USB-C
check the top left icon (a circle or some sort) on your phone
swipe down
at the very bottom of the notification window you should see Android System USB charging this device (and an arrow pointing below)
click it
tap for more options
then another screen pop up
Use USB to: choose Transfer files
then just go to the windows explorer on you PC as usual..
apology if that is not what you seek :victory: or the notification itself does not automatically pop up on your phone.. I do hope you'll find the best solution..

Sorry Buddy You Don't Understand....
The Problem that people are facing in here is that there aren't any options to choose from the top notification bar to select the option of Charging, mtp,PTP etc.
And the options that are available on developer option they are not working.

Cleaning the port doesn't help.I will try reflashing the stock ROM multiple times (testing in between) until it works.
I'll let you know whatever happens.

Yes I did that also. I might as well suspect that it is modem's fault but we'll see.
May flash a different modem, there are some flashable zips on afh.

Is the way to solve this problem found ?????
I experienced the same but i've managed to fix it.
Here are some fixes:
1.If you're on a Custom ROM i suggest Clean Flash it and don't install any magisk modules
2.Uninstall YouTube Vanced if you flashed it.
3.Try if your PC reads your phone on Fastboot mode so you can confirm that the cable and the port is working
