Gyrene, you do so much and have more than enough to do tham to waste your time with my petty B.S.

I was just hoping someone would chime in and would've gone through the same issues that I am.

As one of the guys stated, I've been on a few different threads with the same question, but not once has anyone come up with a viable option, other than removing the card.

Off this XDA forum, I've had discussions with more than 50 people with the EXACT same issues that I've been having. Each one that I have spoken to has said the same thing...They ask, get blasted, and then they say f*** it. I back down to no one. If I have a question, I will seek out those who have knowledge until I find a solution. Then I share. I don't try to take things personally but it happens on occasion. Maybe I and the others are just idiots that don't deserve to have our questions answered, maybe no one really knows.

Regardless, the main reason I asked this on several different rom threads is because 2 of them on XDA DO have the mass storage option. It allows me (us) to go to storage, click on the menu next to the big pushbutton under the screen, and then it offers a USB Mass storage option. So I figured, if its on other roms, then others, perhaps, thought it was a good and/or necessary option to install on their own roms. If I thought that it was a sore topic, I STILL would have continued seeking out what others have found, not because I want to be annoying as others have inplied, but because there is a real benefit to me AND others.

What really gets me, is that brilliance that was instilled within this rom is 12 cuts above the rest, but no one thinks that this is worthwhile. Maybe it's just stupid to think all roms should have certain things built in.

These issues were never a problem until I went to Samsung from HTC. It is what it is.

You Mack, and all those that have placed their time and efforts into this work of art are truly a cut above genius. I consider myself pretty advanced when it comes to electronics (hell, I own my own electronics company) but I couldn't begin to hold your jockstrap in regards to what you guys have here.

While I should just enjoy this rom, donate, and keep my mouth shut, that's not my style. Why not have EVERYTHING you want. NOTHING is IMPOSSIBLE. You're a marine, so no one knows that better than you. My best friend is a marine and his motto (within us) is 1)WE CAN DO ANYTHING 2) Call the Marines when something absolutely MUST be destroyed immediately.

That is all:D

A different way around this would be to use Dropbox. If you don't have an account, sign up, it's free and you get 2 GB of storage free plus with the note 2 once you activate it on your phone you get 48 GB from Samsung for 2 years. Activate the camera upload feature and install Dropbox on your computer and they will automatically upload from your phone and sync to your computer. I've been using this for awhile and it works flawlessly and your pics are automatically backed up in the cloud to boot. Then you just open the Dropbox folder on your computer like you would any other folder.

@wascapsfan,

I appreciate your thoughts, and although I am busy with the ROM and squaring it away for you guys, I need to break away from it for a little bit. So, I just installed VMWare and installed Win 8 on it and I am looking into your problem as I am typing this.....

I looked around and i found this solution for you. Let me know if it works.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Skripka:
Is your phone unplugged when you rebooted? If not, then unplug and reboot after charged. Are you using the SilkUI statusbar mod by chance?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] wascapsfan:
Not this time. I already had this. I think I may need to dump Windows 8. I'm not having any trouble with the mass storage option on my son's gaming computer with Windows 7.

Thanks for trying though.

My computer is a little bit old so it may be the issue. I kept having this Missing Hardware ID issue on my computer everytime I plugged my phone in regardless of MTP or PTP. Occasionally it would find the phone if I switched back and forth a couple dozen times.

On my son's computer, no issues. Of course, he is spoiled so he has a much better and newer computer than I do.

Dropbox may be my only answer!! When I received that pesky Hardware ID Missing, the Mass storage option was a cure for that as I could now transfer files from my pc to the EXTERNAL Storage because the PC DID recognize that, just not the PTP and the MTP. It, of course was perfect for seeing my pictures on the pc also instead of JPG icons.

Thanks. No need to spend anymore time on this. I'm frustrating too many people with this and I don't want to hold up your rom update.

I didn't realize the amount of negativity that this particular issue brings. I guess it is not as important to most. Still, a couple of other devs DID think enough of it to include it on their SGN2 roms, so it DOES have value to SOME!!!!!

Thanks again for trying to help!!!

Wascapsfan.. What roms have it? I was under the impression (from Josh Beach v when you or someone else asked) that it was very hard to do in a tw rom. If it is that important than use the rom that has it. . You can't anyways have everything perfect. . You trade off less important things fir this that are more important. .

It'll get down when it gets done. I know gyrene wants it out by Saturday, and we're trying to make that....but we release buggy code this thread will get flooded with 50 duplicate complaints over the same 2-3 bugs within hours. Devs and testers don't like unhappy uses anymore than users like slightly buggy code. These aren't showstopper level bugs, but they are annoyances.

Somehow I have turned on an annoying lock screen thing that I have to swype a pattern to get it to go to my home screen. Before I did this, I just had to swipe my finger across the screen and I was there. I have NO idea what I did to change this . . . but I want to UNDO it. I've googled and looked through a variety of threads and cannot find a solution. I read there is an app for android 4.2 that will allow one to turn off the lock screen. . . but I'm on 4.1.1 . . .

Any suggestions?

Re: [ROM] MacksRom 4.0 Progression! LJC 1/7/13 Now with Animations

Sorry, been away all night. I had the same issue coming from an HTC phone. Try un installing the Sammy drivers (make sure your note is Not plugged in). Then go into your drivers area and get rid of the HTC drivers. Reboot, and and then have you pc "find" the drivers for your note when you plug it in.

I had the same hardware failure on Macsrom, Jelly bomb and Venum until I did this.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] wascapsfan:
No worries. Hmmm. I don't recall seeing any HTC drivers but I really wasn't looking for them. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the Samsung/Kies drivers 10 or 11 times now so I'm kInd of at a loss. With windows 7, the SGN2 would occasionally get recognized on the PC if I switched back and forth between MTP and PTP a bunch of times, but now that I've switched to windows 8, the PC knows something is there but only when I uncheck debugging, then 2 icons for drive J and K show up, but if I click on either of the new drive icons, they tell me to insert something in the drive. If I check debugging, then both drives disappear. It must be a windows 8 thing. The HTC framework for this particular issues is better on the HTC than the Galaxy Note 2. We always had access to both interior memory and exterior sd cards without having to use MTP or PTP.

I never had an issue with the Missing Hardware ID on the HTC. Now I don't get that, but I really don't get recognized at all by my PC. It's got to be in Windows 8

I was given good advice about the dropbox, so I use that.

Thanks for chiming in.

Between some more testing and even the time to upload the ROM to the cloud, I'd guess we won't make a final release today. I might be wrong in that. But there's probably little need to wear out your F5 key....if we do make today, it likely won't be til you're almost off work.

Heck get yourself a nice IBM Model M mechanical keyboard, and never worry about wearing your F5 key out ever again.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Skripka:
Gyrene is cooking in the kitchen, but I'd guess not on this release even if the icons for it were already done and available. So close to a final release, it isn't wise to introduce and integrate more new and untested code...and in the middle of final bug stomping risk introducing more bugs.
