You guys are doing better than me. I'm about to totally lose it! I can't , no matter what, get my PC to recognize my Evo as removable storage. :mad:

I've tried everything I can think of. Over the last 3 days. Tried various drivers . Tried the 32 bit HTC driver from the root thread (zedomax). Tried uninstalling HTC sync.

My old Evo still mounts as a removable drive no problem.

If anyone has any ideas or suggestions, please, please, for the love if all that is good and fair, please share.

Thank you.

(Windows xp sp3 32 bit)

Unrelated, maybe :

Adb recognizes my phone when I type adb devices. And I can adb reboot bootloader. But when Evo is in fastboot USB, if i try a fastboot command from CMD box, it just says waiting for device. :confused::banghead:

I NEVER had this much trouble with OG Evo. This is kicking my arse.

Please and thank you.

removable storage is only if you put in a SD card, sounds like you dont have a SD card in your phone.

i installed htc sync but still cant access the internal storage...
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] scottspa74:
nope. At work on a win 7 PC I plugged in and it picked up my internal storage right away. (I don't have an SD yet, dont wanna steal the one out of my og Evo).

The problem seems to be specific to dealing with XP. I just can't figure out what it is that I need. And why my fastboot commands hang at 'waiting for device'. :confused:

I appreciate the response, but internal storage mounts just fine for me on win7, which I dont have. :(

Edit: sorry, let me clarify. At work on win7 it didn't show as a removable drive, you are correct. But below the listed drives, it showed up as Evo and i was able yo access internal storage. I'm just so confused what the hell to do.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] hshshawn:
Hmm I only have Win7 at home and I can get to both my internal storage and sd card just fine. We are still on XP at work so in the morning I can plug it in and see if I can help you out if you haven't figured it out by then.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] dougm0:
Here is what I found with phones that have an internal "SD card" built in.

If you move a lot of apps to the SD card, eventually there will be an app that wont quit when you plug in the USB and tell the phone to mount the drive.

Unfortunately, I only stumbled upon this recently with my old Motorola Photon therefore I havent researched the issue enough to know what the problem apps are. I had a hunch that installing apps to the SD card had something to do with the problem and used Titanium Backup to move all the apps back to phone memory. Magically... the storage would mount.

YMMV but this is something I would try. Ironically I have the same problem again on the Evo after setting up my phone. It worked great till I restored all my apps (some of which to the internal SD card). If I get some time in the next week or two to research I will update my post with some problem apps.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] scottspa74:
That is awesome, man. Thank you. I'm going nuts over this. I'm not android illiterate, but I am pretty much a noob when it comes to PCs/desktops. Thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you.

Update windows media player to the latest version, use Media Sync option and it should work.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] unknown1205:
im on windows 7 at home and at work and it still wont recognize my internal storage. i installed htc sync and it says no device connected.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] shook187:
Use media sync.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] unknown1205:
nevermind i got it. i was clicking on HTC Sync Manager instead of media Sync. worked like a charm.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] devgrp:
What's the point of accessing this memory if it's read only
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] unknown1205:
its not read only, its internal memory. sort of like a non removable sd card
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] sgt. slaughter:
Imho they shoulda just made the whole internal storage include that 16gb "sd card' memory allocation and then say if you need extra space add a micro SD card and have that be the true external memory...
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] devgrp:
Ok I didnt know that. I thought the only memory available to us was the sdcard. How much of it is usable?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] hshshawn:
Hmm I am not sure what your problem could be? When I connect on XP at work it brings up both sdcard and internal for me to view. Make sure you have the corect drivers installed I believe 3.0.021. ITo be sure just DLHTC sync for the phone it ill automatically install the proper drive. Past that you should just be able to connect. Mae sure to select "Media Sync" when accessing internal storage(you can go to settings-->connect to PC-->Default connection type-->Media Sync to have it set to that option. If that does not work let me know but that should work.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] tmuka:
FWIW, i found this thread while looking for answers on how to mount the internal storage via usb after it didnt show up as a drive on either Mac OS X, or Ubuntu LTS. I'm guessing MTD isn't supported natively in those OSes. (I had no problem using internal storage as a drive on Windows 7 after selecting the media sync option on the phone menu that popped up)

Fortunately I was able to use adb push and pull to transfer a .tar of the files i needed to move between the phone and the two pcs.

I don't have an SD card installed yet, that will hopefully make this easier in the future...

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] nolageek:
Is there a way to access this storage via Ubuntu? This is retarded - accessing photos via USB is the main reason I prefer android over iphones and now that doesn't work. :( So I have to keep going in via ES FIle manager and manually moving photos from /sdcard to /ext_sd/ ? Ugh.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] EarlyMon:
When you plug your phone into your Mac, choose the Media Sync connection option.

Android File Transfer will auto launch, the phone selection will show /sdcard and the card selection will show /sdcard2.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] EarlyMon:
I use adb push/pull myself.

To use MTP, see -

Just like on the Mac, choose the Media Sync connection option after you plug in to your Ubuntu workstation.

And to repeat what others have said - wifi is a great way to do this on any platform.

I like SwiFTP, set the default directory to just / instead of /sdcard to access everything, and a choice with a great web GUI is Airdroid.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] gator2k83:
I use airdroid to acess my internal storage. To gain access faster just use internet passthrough. Its a free app u can use over wifi or usb with internet passthrough, its as close to turning your pc/laptop into an external screen for your phone that i have seen.

I got all my photos and videos I wanted using media sync but I realized they are not the quality it shows on the phone. They all come out pixelated or blurry, when on the phone its complete HD no matter how far I zoom in.

My phone doesn't load my internal memory

It only shows my external and my internal comes up as a cd-rom when I have the phone in disk drive mode, all other sync options will not work

how can I fix this

When you plug your phone in choose media sync option not the disk drive and both sd card and internel will pop up
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jauger:
When I want to start over Fresh with a new rom I boot into recovery, mount both Internal and External, copy everything and then format em both...then after Ive installed my rom I add back my file like TB, pics, etc...this had actually made a difference sometimes on Aurora freezing up with some installs
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] thesssfactor:
That does load anything (tired that countless of times). I don't want to install htc sync in my computer or have it related to this phone

---------- Post added at 01:17 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:15 PM ----------

Do you think if i clear my internal memory and have droid rebuilt its files that will make a difference on if it will be plug and play?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] EarlyMon:
What version of Windows?

Do you have any HTC drivers installed?

Has other info earlier in the thread been helpful?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] slowfncar:
You have previously flashed a Rom that fakes the internal flash as an .iso(cd) . Find the (hidden?) File in your partition called pciso or pc.ISO or something like that. Use a root explorer and enable hidden files. By default a completely stock evo will mount media sync as internal/external at one time

Hi there,

I noticed that after you take a picture it's perfectly fine for a second but after that the software somewhat darkens the picture and it's way too dark. You have to manually change it for every picture via the photo editor but really, that's not something I wanna do. Any idea? is this a new bug?

[Atrix 4G General] MJPollard:
To be perfectly honest, I'll be surprised if these petitions amount to anything beyond making the people who signed them feel good about doing so. "Last purchase of Motorola phones if they don't unlock the bootloaders?" Let's be honest: the number of people who care about locked bootloaders is merely a fraction of their overall user base, which doesn't give a damn about rooting or unlocked bootloaders or custom ROMs. All of us combined could refuse to buy Motorola phones tomorrow, and it wouldn't affect their bottom line in the slightest. It's just not a threat to their business. Now, maybe these petitions

will

make some sort of difference, I don't know, but please don't labor under the illusion that we're any threat to their bottom line, because such a concept is laughable at best.

Buddy flashing rom/kernel dont cause any data loss unless u wipe ur data, but for safety always keep a copy of ur latest cwm backup so incase if anything go wrong u can restore ur backup.

Ardatdat's kernels r very stable and gives awesome results, 1.7 versions r beta but they r also stable and working fine, read kernel threads for info on which kernel is suitable according to ur fw, happy flashing :D
