Hello everyone, I'm new here and own a Galaxy S now for two weeks. Yesterday I to noticed/encountered the rebooting mtp application when plugging in the cable while the USB settings are set to 'connect to Kies'.

To be short I tried all offered solutions found on this topic on the web and in the end only the unmounting and formatting of the INTERNAL sd has helpt.

I made a backup via Websharing since selecting the 'mass storage' option didn't work for me yesterday. Obviously this is a slow way to make a backup. Try to only back-up what you deem to be imported files.

So the unmounting - formatting and rebooting (mounting) of the INTERNAL cards is the quickest solution and will safe you hours of work!

HOWEVER

Today I had the same rebooting MTP issue again. But since re-installing kies version 1.5.1.10083 I'm able to connect to the pc via 'Mass Storage'

You will see drive F: and drive G: if you at least succeed in connecting via the mass storage option.

I than did 2 things:

1.

I recently made some pictures and also copied some pictures from my pc to the G: drive ( INTERNAL SD) I renamed the pictures to short names so they didn't exceed 16 characters (one of the solutions I read online ).

2.

In the map data I found folders with the names of in my case Touiteur and Beautiful Widgets. Both folders contain a CACHE folder. I deleted the complete touiteur folder and thus also its CACHE folder.

Now I connected my Galaxy S to the usb cable again and behold, the rebooting of the MTP has stopped!

Now I'm not technical at all and have struggled with this issue the whole of yesterday ending up formatting my internal SD. And to be honest I don't know for sure what the working solution is in the end but can narrow it down to 2 things you may try if you can connect via the 'mass storage' option:

1. try giving pictures in G:\DCIM\folder name a short name if they are long or try to remove the pictures completely (make backup) just to see if either of this works.

2. Delete the CACHE folders in the APP folder under G:\data and see if this works

Again, I'm unsure what or why I solved it on my Galaxy S but give it a try if you have tried everthing else and do not want to format your INTERNAL SD

I've got a fix

Alright guys, I posted a video on how to repair the MTP application problem, especially for you spencee, check it out. Go to youtube and copy paste: MTP Application Crash Fix. And click the first one. It's by abrar447. Hope this helps!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] dsmit1977:
Ok, I'm having this issue again! I watched the video by Abrar447 and deleted every single file in cash I could find ( actually did a search on the word 'cache' on the internal drive. Although I know this should now work my TMP application keeps rebooting. Am I missing something here ?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] kuplet:
Thanks again for posting this video. It actually worked for me, been trying to find the solution to that MTP crashing problem when trying to connect in Kies mode.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] at839:
narrowed it down

I have this problem too. I saw the youtube vid and decided i'd delete one cache folder a time to see what was causing the problem. Found out that is was 'Sound Hound'. So i deleted the cache folder, MTP worked, then i used the app so it would create another cache folder, MTP clashed. Did it many times.

Hope this helps.

[Galaxy S I9000 General] dehem333:
Really weird problem , after clearing the cache it works again.

I reccomend using CacheMate for Root Users (free or pro) which you can find in the market , you dont need to delete all the cache manually then :)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] hmanxx:
Hi..

Anyone know the exact name for the MTP Application..is there a way to replace the problematic version with a working version..On my ship with ROM. i9000dxjf4..MTP application showed steadily without keep crashing..

MtpApplication.apk

MtpApplication.odex.

If anyone has the working version (no crashing on Kies connection). can post here..I would like to experiment to overwrite it with a working version..
[Galaxy S I9000 General] mindziuk:
Perfect solution. Did the clearing manually - no success. Only Cachemate did the trick :) Thanks!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] mobilebone:
I emptied the cache under the Android folder and it started working again. The thing is, as soon as I open the gallery, the cache is written again. I'll try to see if the new update fixed the issue.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] karanits:
The problem is the not cache in itself. The bug is the '16 character extension' problem. Google it if you like. The solution is to delete all the files having its last extension greater then 16 char, in your internal or external SD card.

I asked about the fix on twitter, the reply was this.

I found a small program which tell you which files are the problem.

[Galaxy S I9000 General] deamt:
Hello everybody,

i'm a bit new to Galaxy I9000 but i had the same issue with Kies and MTP apps. Actually i found out that the issue seems to be linked to file extension longer than 16 chars. Usually those files are inside cache directories so, you should just cancel them to fix it. I've got kies running correctly since then (last update of Kies running n Windows 7 64 bit). I know there is also a little app to scan files to search the 16 digits extension called "FileSearcherforKiesFix.rar" you can find it and download just putting it in google.

Hope this can help!

Regards

Mic
[Galaxy S I9000 General] BuPe:
APK version?

Is there an apk version of this? I'm unable to connect the phone to my x64 win7 at all right now...

Cheers,

Peter
[Galaxy S I9000 General] mundano:
Have tried everything and nothing seemed to work...

The "FileSearcherforKiesFix" finds some problematic files, but not all off them. Manually deleting long file names and cache folders seems to be insufficient either.. I think that there must be some cache files in other partitions that we cannot access via "Mass Storage" that are causing problems too. So we have to clear those files...

But thanks to a comment in this topic I have found a working solution:

1º Delete any problematic file with the "FileSearcherforKiesFix" method.

2º Use this app: http://www.appbrain.com/app/com.aac.cachemate.demo , with the option "PowerClear" turned on, and clear all cache from the phone.

After this the MTP thing installed instantly and now everything works.

NOTE: The "PowerClear" option may cause some undesired effects in some apps.. Backup first, or, use at your own risk.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] andydev:
For me the problem started when I copied lots of MP3 to my phone.

I solve this like this:

I connected my phone using the media mode.

Searched for all *.mp3 files

renamed them all to *.! (whatever extension)

(I use a program called FAR Manager, which is something similar to the old Norton commander, but for windows)

Connected with Kies and it got recognised

Hope it helps others
[Galaxy S I9000 General] crvenazvezda:
Ya, I just went nuts deleting every cache file I could find and VOILA! It works!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] !S.R.G.O.:
Boo-ya!

Finally, I was on the verge of a Factory Reset. Had just finished updating my TitaniumBackup folder. CacheMate saved me! But did not have to use the PowerClear.

I also uninstalled SoundHog, which kind of "tainted" my solution because I'm not sure if it helped at all.

By now, my call is:

- First, try deleting extension files and then execute CacheMate without PowerClear.

- If that doesn't work, try PowerClear.

- Still doesn't work? Delete SoundHog.

- Last resort, format internal SD, Factory Reset the damn thing, format your external SD and punch a Samsung Kies/MTP App developer in the face if you ever get the chance.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] stringbeans:
yeah i unmounted my internal sd card then formatted.. fixed everything :) you wont lose your contacts or sms messages BUT you'll lose things like your pictures/custom ring tones/mp3s
[Galaxy S I9000 General] stringbeans:
I take it back. Tried connecting to kies tonight and didn't work, staying at the initializing dialog forever.. So I formatted my sd card again and now I have the mtp crashing problem again.

God I hate kies so much
[Galaxy S I9000 General] #1RAGE:
I have found that when the MTP app crashes, my phone loses its internal and externals SD's. When I go to My Files it says there are no SD cards or something like that. Usually if I cycle the power on my phone, then when I connect to my PC it will work if I mount SD, then unmount, then connect with Kies.

Annoying but at least I'm not formatting anything or having to clear caches. Can anyone else verify if my method works?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] allotrios:
Sorry, do you mean Unmount then Mount (other way around from what you wrote) from the SD Card menu?

I am havint the constant mtp crashing error it is annoying as hell and I can't believe samsung is taking so long to fix that, and people worry about froyo...

I have removed all long extension files, deleted caches, tried different versions of drivers and kies... it keeps coming and going randomly.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Emulator ®:
No solutions yet?

I'm investigating the problem and i'm close to solution!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] jgclifton:
Does the MTP driver for Windows install for you OK? That was my problem. Got a driver that worked and no more MTP issues.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] keroma:
Try take out your sd card and reboot
[Galaxy S I9000 General] slaman:
I am so excited that I found this thread!!! Will try it tonight when I get home... this problem presents itself when I try to sync Windows Media Player music playlists with my Samsung Galaxy S...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] slaman:
This didn't solve my issues :(

MTP Application still closes when trying to re-sync using Windows Media Player - any suggestions???
[Galaxy S I9000 General] borghnaz:
Found a solution (worked for me at least)

I had been trying to connect the phone with Kies already open, after a while i realized that the MTP crash only happened when Kies was running.

I close Kies, connect in Kies mode and wait untill the MTP app says "connected"

Disconnect the cable, open kies, reconnect... and for some reason it worked.

It didn't make much sense why it worked, but it did.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] slaman:
Have you got it working for Windows Media Player syncing?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] !S.R.G.O.:
Here's another possible cause for the problem: Applications that have auto mount/auto sync functionalities.

I don't know how to explain how I came into this, but Winamp has a auto mount when cable connected option that caused MTP to go havoc. Disabled it and, tada, MTP worked.

Don't know how many applications have this, just thought it would be nice to share.

Kies makes me miss my E71 + OVI Suite.

Good luck.

Long file name fix worked for me, thanks for posting it!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] hiroshige:
I was having problems with Kies, was stuck on "Connecting the Device" but never doing anything. After trying almost everything, I found http://xdaforums.com/archive/index.php/t-705685.html which finally solved my problem.

If, in Device Manager -> Portable Devices, you've either got a yellow exclamation mark, OR a device named 'Android MTP' (instead of GT-i9000M), then update the driver, replacing it with C:\Windows\inf\wpdmtp.inf (note - I think this depends on having Windows Media Player v11.x installed first).

After doing this, Device Manager showed it as being called GT-i9000M, and Kies found it straight away. The relief!!!!! Thanks to all concerned...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] tartakobsky:
thanks very much for your solution, it solve my MTP crashing issue. now i can connect to kies.

i found 3 files with long extension, one is from dolphinbrowser i uninstalled before which left a folder named tunnybrowser

the other 2 i found in DCIM which is a thumbnail, maybe from apps i uninstalled long time ago.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] TMReuffurth:
The onlu thins that worked for me was a complete wipe. The solution with long file names or uninstalling apps like soundhound didn´t work for me.

Clearing the cache, reinstalling any kind of usb drivers for the SGS and trying every version of Kies didn´t work also, so the only possebility for me was to try a wipe and it did work.

Now i choose carefully which apps i install and after some apps i try if kies can connect without mtp crashing.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] keroma:
I got a problem also.

Tried all solutions that have suggested here. Same for me.

I think i may need to reset it when i know i can upgrade to 2.2
[Galaxy S I9000 General] B-1P:
Omg the disabling winamp auto mount totally worked...i spent like 2 hours yesterday trying to get this to work... Thank you so much...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] orosee:
THANK YOU!!! This was unrelated to the topic here, but I noticed that my phone switched USB modes when connected automatically and that kept driving me crazy (on account of 90% of my USB connections are for charging only). Now I don't have to go through dozens of apps to find out who did that to me :D

Oh, and yes: Kies sucks (there's a Facebook group for that).
[Galaxy S I9000 General] slaman:
I don't understand how noone uses Windows Media Player to sync...

WMP simply doesn't sync with the Galaxy S using "Media Player" mode...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] hamponching:
After deleting the 16 character file extension is it s Rrafe to upgrade the firmware to 2.2?

please, i did not understand what u r trying to say at all please can u further clearify as i did not find any portable devies in my device manager

i did every possible thing i have read online and nothing worked but when i installed the new kies.............version 2.0 it reinstalled the drivers and boom my phone came up
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Meneldur:
Deleting old apps folders and caches from many apps solved the MTP crashing problem.

ULTRA HAPPY (but, just seeing Kies telling me "no Froyo for you" is no happiness at all) :mad:
[Galaxy S I9000 General] goranbm:
I got this problem, after updating to Froyo :( And i tried everything, but still no luck :( MTP application keeps crashing all the time :(
[Galaxy S I9000 General] jnightz:
I notice that some time ago my phone try to send on itself an international SMS/MMS.

I was able to identify all running processes on android as system apps or apps that I know about except for this one: MTP application (com.aricent.mtp)

I never saw that before, don't know what it is and what's for. (that didn't exist on android 2.1, now I found it on android 2.3.4).

Don't know if that's a system app that comes with the phone or some kind of virus or malware, some app that connects to internet and give away my personal info.

So far only had android 2.1, I'm new to android 2.3.4 Sorry my ignorance.

Thank you.

[Desire General] DAE_JA_VOO:
Hi guys,

So, my battery has just been dropping the whole day, no matter how little I've used my phone. Then I check my Wifi connection, only to find that my phone has downloaded about 265MB of Data today, at about 10KB/s average. I can't figure out WHAT it's been downloading though. Everything is synced, so I don't need anything to be downloaded. I had to turn the phone off and on again to get it to stop.

Any idea how I can figure out what is was doing?

(using a modded DJ Droid ROM)
[Desire General] Dave G:
had a similar, but not so extreme, issue with mine (about 50mb a day) ~ turned out leaving iGoogle active in the browser not such a good idea!
[Desire General] john014:
I had similar problem, i got a text from vodafone saying i had exceeded allowance for that day! it was the Engadget widget, downloads 25mb an hour!!

NOTE: i have posted this in themes and here so that those that are/were not aware of how to utilize video on froyo would have better chances of seeing it or those that didnt want to check out froyo for the no vid or buggy cam issue. This is also a tut on how to get it working for you. I think this should be posted in dev and theme since it qualifies as both.

​

[THEME/MOD]PROTO-G_v.1

I began work on this and it is exclusive to a specific froyo rom atm. I am working on 2more things right now and i need some feedback towards what to add to this setup, and when i get enough changes/added mods and/or edits, i can then release another PUBLIC version in update.zip form. Its not just a skin though, this is what i did so that i could test a froyo rom. So this is the EXACT mod im running right now. I will be editing two more items shortly. I will be optimizing and zipaligning the app and framework folders since i just found a sweet new script.

:D PROTO_G PICS :D

instructions: !!NANDROID ALWAYS!!

(only tested on froyo by myself)

1.flash avalaunch or hero over's froyo+sense

2.reboot

3.reboot recovery

4.flash framework zip

5.reboot

6.reboot recovery

7.flash htc zip of your choice(F!n!$h3R,Baked,FROYO 2.2 and stock)

8.:Dreboot,enjoy:D

DOWNLOADS:

PICK 1 HTC.PROTO_G.ZIP of YOUR choice(will be adding in stock)

(the only difference is the lettering on the mainnav scroller)

DOWNLOAD FROYO 2.2 VERSION

DOWNLOAD F!n!$h3R VERSION

DOWNLOAD BAKED VERSION

NEXT:

DOWNLOAD FRAMEWORK.PROTO_G.zip

THEN:

:DREBOOT,ENJOY:D

The reason there are two files rather than just one or added to a rom is because they do not work together and it will not work that way for me. I am working on it. I will update it as soon as i figure it out.

NOW TO ENABLE VIDEO:D

1.OPEN new qik i installed version 0.04.05

2.select menu/camera/front

3.press red button to capture video

congrats on the first froyo theme and thanks for the work...however, I don't think I'll be using this. Personally, it kinda hurts my eyes to look at. Again, that is just me personally, I'm sure plenty of people will love this ROM. Thanks for the work.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] casual864:
Good theme. I will have to agree with post #3. This theme is to robust for my style. The lock screen, the rosie theme and the font. Not my flava, but maybe someone else will enjoy it.

Wow that has a lot going on. hard to focus on anything.

[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] nugzo:
You obviously having theming skills, i mean you know how to manipulate stuff, you do good with the colors most of the time. i can't begin to do it. your choice of fonts are always horrible to me though. If you kept stock fonts i guarantee people would enjoy your stuff a lot more. your name looks ghetto on the launcher button also. Look at koni's stuff, thats good theming, and he doesnt put his name out in the open with some ghetto freestyle uneven font to be in your face 24/7. Tone it down some if you care to please others. If you dont, which you make clear in all of your theme threads, then leave it alone and only you will like it. I've never seen anybody rip in to themers like they do to you, i'm beginning to understand why, Waste of bandwidth.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] MagnusRagnarok:
Thanks. Sorry its not your style or to your liking. Maybe in the future i will make something more appealing to you.

Thanks. I WISH every single person here liked my work, but ill settle for 1 too:D even though in most of my threads youll see that there are many more than 1. also there are many more that dl that do not post.

If thats a bad thing im sorry. not a big % of pps like my theming,but the ones that do, really apppreciate it and encourage me to continue. If someone else made themes that i would be happy using, i wouldnt have ever started doing what i call theming.

If you have no idea how to do this than thats it. YOU HAVE NO IDEA whats involved so i cant expect you to begin to appreciate this form of art. FYI, case you didnt notice finisher is not my name but the name of a mod i created by myself and take great pride in. I am magnus if you didnt see my sig, i know its pretty hard to see. I provided 3 other options AS STATED IN THE OPS, there are also froyo 2.2 and one for baked as well. YOu should consider reading a bit more carefully before posting all willy nilly; EVERYTHING short of your opinion is completely unfounded and/or JUST wrong and shows that you lack the dedication to read ops for w/e reason. Also i am an artist that uses many mediums;this is just another. Art is obective,even controversial sometimes. Should picasso have quit because pps insulted his work and he himself for creating it? We all have opinions and thanks for sharing yours. If you cared to read ops, rather than just come across as crass you may have helped me create something more appealing to yourself, cared to notice the 5 addl fonts i have on the same page as my rom dls, or took the time to read all the POSITIVE comments i have in my threads. That is fine if you want to come across as negative as you have but just try to get the WHOLE picture before posting like this again. Also, if i was happy flashing other ppls work like yourself i would not do what i do. I am not that type. I appreciate what koni does here. hes awesome. but thats koni's spin on theming. I provide ANOTHER choice. DO WE NEED TWO OF ANY THEMER? thats pretty lame if you ask me, maybe you can take the time to learn and then become a koni clonie. Lemme know how that works out for you, im sure youll have a million dl's your first project. My goal is to provide ANOTHER choice of theme and here im also providing a tut for those that would like froyo but did not want to sacrifice their camcorder like myself. You should think twice before attempting to flame someone who makes regular contributions to the site and/or tries to help others out in any way he can. Obviously you do not know me. Maybe after you put something out youll understand how rude this comment is. Thanks anyway.
