OLD INFO!

[ info ]

so friends i know some of u are getting pissed because Sony didnt include MSC (mass storage mode) in the Xperia S GB firmware... the MTP mode is fine but some users (including me) prefer the MSC mode...

so here is a MOD/HACK which will enable that functionality!!!

[ credits ]

Napstar - for discussing this workaround which was ment for recovery but it works in OS very well :D

rogro82 - for creating and posting the GScript App here

finally me (DooMLoRD) - for implementing it for Xperia S and creating this easy to use package

[ requirements ]

stock GingerBread firmware (.62/.63/.73)

rooted device

recovery

[ how to install? ]

download the zip file provided in download section below

put the zip on sdcard

reboot into recovery

flash the zip from sdcard

reboot into system

open app drawer, a new app GScript will be available

open GScript app and click MENU button

select "Add Script"

now select "sdcard-mount.sh"

now click on "Save"

do the above 4 steps again to add "sdcard-unmount.sh"

now go to homescreen and long press on blank space, you will get a menu to add things to homescreen

now select "Shortcuts" and browse to "GScript Lite"

now select "sdcard-mount"

a shortcut will now be placed on homescreen to autolaunch this script

do the above 3 steps to add "sdcard-unmount"

that it!! now everything is in place!

[ how to use? ]

mounting

now when ever u have the phone connected to PC just click on the shortcut "sdcard-mount" (you might get a SuperUser prompt, accept/allow it)

at first run it might take a while for the new drive to show up as drivers are getting installed in background but once thats done sdcard should now be mounted to PC

unmounting

now to unmount, safely remove the drive from ur PC and click on shortcut "sdcard-unmount"

done sdcard is now unmounted!!!

ENJOY!!
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Mycorrhiza:
Haha, edited :o

What to you think of the script, any other way to automate it?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] DooMLoRD:
i personally dont want to automate it as i keep connecting to PC often but dont want the sdcard mounted all the time...
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] K900:
There's an app for that I posted just before you. I'll fix it to make it work on the XPS later today
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] DooMLoRD:
ya i remember seeing this a few months back when ICS was released...

right now i am stuck with MOTODEV studio (eclipse) as it just doesnt want to start :p complaining about ADT version....
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] K900:
Use IDEA. It's really great and works with any SDK
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Mycorrhiza:
Maybe you could still link my instructions in the main post as I think many would find it very usefull.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] DooMLoRD:
finally got MOTODEV to work :p

i am modifying an older app i have to add this functionality...

hmmm ok...
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] DooMLoRD:
ok i have a VERY simple app ready...

anyone wants it?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] sminki:
please!

one touch on, one touch off? or auto?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] DooMLoRD:
Two buttons "mount"/"unmount"

Very ugly too ;)

Lets see I will ask one of my friends to send me some good graphics
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] sminki:
can't be as ugly as a stream of "stderr:" :)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] DooMLoRD:
it is this ugly:
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] harfot:
No, and does not matter when it's working :p
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] anthon:
+1, it's simple and does perfectly the work

thanks for all your work doomlord
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Emrul:
Wow ! Works perfectly. Awesome work. U are true genius. Thx a lot.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] :
What is the difference between mtp and msc ?

and which 1 is better ?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] krabappel2548:
MSC is only mounting of internal memory so you can connect your Xperia S to the USB port of a receiver, Blu ray player, home cinema set, tv etc to play music, pictures & videos on those devices :) But you are not able to use the internal memory on your phone while mounted.

When you connect your device in MTP mode to your pc, you can read and write to your internal memory on your pc AND still use the internal memory on your phone ;)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] sminki:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Media_Transfer_Protocol

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USB_mass-storage_device_class

happy reading :p

"better" is ones own perception, usually through personal experience. i don't use windows so have a hard time with MTP, another downside of MTP is (from wiki) "Neither the MTP nor the PTP standards allow for direct modification of objects. Instead, modified objects must be reuploaded in their entirety"

try them both, use whichever you prefer.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] :
i dont think i have the time to read everything in wiki website :P

thanks for your info will try out both

So basically Msc expands the usability of your device memory?

thank you :)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] 4lex96:
It's working also on SSpeed ROM.

@Doomlord

after point 8 add that the users must to click on "Load file" and then chose sdcard-mount or sdcard-unmount.

;)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] K900:
MSC allows you to use your phone like any USB flash drive, so you can use it with any app, on any ( or most) OS at the cost of ' disconnecting' your internal memory. MTP mode uses a special protocol that allows Android and your PC access internal memory simultaneously, but you can only copy/ move/ remove/ add files via Explorer and not edit them on the spot. Also MTP is often slower and is not supported as well on *nix and embedded systems.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] 4lex96:
Small off-topic:

can you create a script to reboot phone in recovery mode?

Thanks!
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] DooMLoRD:
any reboot into recovery app will do...

u can use "ROM Manager"s reboot into recovery option... or i had created an app xCharge (its free here on XDA) to reboot into recovery, u can use that, just select Xperia Arc as device ;)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] 4lex96:
I have the notification bar by OptimalKiller and when I press reboot and then ClockWorkMode the device reboot but not in recovery :-/ Any idea?

Thanks
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] DooMLoRD:
ask the guy who posted that mod :p
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] 4lex96:
i did it yesterday :P i think that you have more information about that problem .

Thanks, Doomlord :)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] sminki:

(the bottom is a bit odd in landscape, but you have much greater tasks to take care of!)

I know you're tired of hearing it, but thanks DooMLoRD :p

(and Soheil for the paint job)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] anarchyuk:
the scripts were excellent but this is even more of an essential tool when using a mac!!!
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] poo-tang:
@Doom this app is f#cking sweet. Very nice job love the splash screen and icon. Can't wait for a Doom updater for your Kernal. Ps will you be putting this on market as a paid app as will put link out on our site for some more adverts for you. Thanks nice work:-)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] DooMLoRD:
yes i am planning to do that ;) if its uploaded to market i will post market link here :D
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Angralon:
Failed

I installed it on my XPS (.67 rooted) then connected to my pc (Ubuntu 11.10). When i try "Mount" i get a tooltip "FAILED!!!".

su is granted.

Any Ideas?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] DooMLoRD:
make sure that u have busybox installed
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] ladynaamah:
works like a charm except it makes my statusbar app crash, resulting in necessary reboot. Thanks :) (I have modded it to include power widget, but dunno why that would have something in common)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] fredcom2:
Hi,

Thanks for all your work.

But I probably miss something as I don't see any difference in my PC explorer between MTP connection and USB mount or unmount...

I'm still unable to see a thumbview of my photo.

What am I doing wrong?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] K900:
Windows doesn't generate thumbnails for external devices.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] fredcom2:
Hi,

I do not agree.

With the HTC HD2 with CM7 Rom, I can manage to connect the phone in USB Mass Storage.

Then, if I open my Windows Explorer, I can change the view of the folder of this external device and then see thumbnail.

I just do it few minutes ago.

So, I probably missing something or doing things wrong with this DoomLord application.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Pezo:
When it's in Mass Storage mode Windows doesn't know that it's a phone, so why shouldn't it generate thumbnails?

If you don't get thumbnails then either Windows is set not to generate them or the phone is not in MSC mode (or the pictures are damaged).
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] fredcom2:
I do understant what you say ... but it works with one phone (HD2 CM7) and not with Xperia S and the aaplication of Doom.

If it works for you, it means that I probably do something wrong, but I dont see what.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] bongbank:
Not work on Xperia U
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] DooMLoRD:
so even the Xperia U has same problem of no MSC mode?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] norberto_:
and the P too :( it doesn't have msc mode and the mounter doesn't work
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] DooMLoRD:
i can try creating a modified version of this app to work on most of these devices...

though, i will need some info from u guys...

give me the outputs of the following commands:

adb shell df

adb shell 'cat /proc/partitions'

adb shell mount

This was created from a Xperia P

I am also willing to help with the testing. If u need any help with that
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] DooMLoRD:
Try the Xperia U version of app
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] hagen.von.tronje:
testing of U-version on P

the xperia U version of the App is working on the Xperia P.

It worked afeter I rebooted the device. (I guess there were some programs running in the background which used the internal memory)

i copied a file of 1.3 GB with an average speed of 12,7 MB/s

under Ubuntu linux

:D
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] DooMLoRD:
thanks for testing that! i will update the posts...

anyone willing to test it on SOLA?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] rebj2007:
not working on xperia U :(

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Cach123:
Working great on xperia S!!! Along with your doomkernel aswell. Thanks doomlord for making my devices so good!

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] inteks:
is it normal that i can access sdcard on phone AND PC the same time ?? (in MSC Mode!)

and i can disconnect PC then connect and i can still access files on sdcard ...

:confused:

[edit]

is it possible that you do auto connect/disconnect ?

maybe register a broadcast receiver to ACTION_POWER_CONNECTED

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] im_iceman:
Hi - I think I may have screwed something up ?!..

I used this app to xfer the superuser.zip file to the phone prior to upgrading to ICS and then rooting it..

I wonder if this could have screwed up how my phone sees the media - cos now I can't see any of the music, the photo's or the videos on the stock apps.. but I can see them in root explorer... I am :confused:

anyone know how I can fix this?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] sminki:
Yes, DooMLoRD ;)

It doesn't play with ICS. But I'm sure he'll be on it very soon.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Rene_ajax:
Hey

Doomlord

I saw your topics and your a great developper. I used all your kernels and sd mounter.

But I still miss something. Can you PLZZ make the possibility to wake my phone with the home button? Looks sth like this:

S - ICS -Workaround

if you "S" owners haven't been following the exciting times in the Advanced Stock Kernel Thread (and why not!?! ;)) Arakmar has written two little scripts >here< that work similar to DooMLoRD's original method but for ICS :victory:

I can't get gscript to work on ICS so use something like "ScriptMe" from the market (it's not as good, but it works)

All credits to DooMLoRD and Arakmar :laugh:
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Yezariael:
Do I understand you correct, that you flashed the .ZIP file on your ICS Device? I am kind of conversative flashing GB ZIPs to ICS ;) Advanced Stock Kernel is already on my device, I like it :good:
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] sminki:
no, sorry this is a workaround. It does not use any of DooM's original files, just his inspiration ;)

Download the attached rar. Extract. Put the two scripts on your sdcard, install "ScriptMe" (or your script executor of choice) on your phone.

In ScriptMe, hit browse, choose mount.sh from the sdcard, make sure "with root privileges" is checked, then "Execute script" - Enjoy MSM on ICS!

(to unmount, repeat the above with unmount.sh)

again - all thanks to Arakmar for the scripts

the mount script does not work in my side :confused: no drive appears in Windows, even the Sony as a multimedia device disappears... after unmounting it's there again, but tried several things to mount and did not help: execute sript while usb connected, execute while not connected, execute while connected, disconnect and connect again -> no mounting.

what did i do wrong?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] goodwin_c:
Made some little hack. Unpack attached zip, put sdcard.sh to your internal memory (/sdcard/ partition) and install SDCARD_mount.apk (if you have installed previous version of DoomLord's mounter - uninstall it first). Now you can use DoomLord's app on ICS ;)
