Android USB storage not available without restarting udisks2

My problem seems to be specific to Arch (I've got Chakra, Debian, Fedora, and Back|Track installed on other partitions and all is well there), when inserting a USB drive, everything seems to work fine, the Device Notifier alerts me of the new drive, and it shows up in Dolphin. BUT, when I plug in my phone as a mass storage device, it doesn't work. The phone shows up in lsusb, as well as systemctl (sorta) -- the 'sdc' entry is there, just not the partition entries (sdc1, sdc2, etc.) -- same thing in the /dev directory (sdc, but no sdc[x]). Now, if I run "systemctl restart udisks2.service" the partition entries show up in systemctl, the /dev directory, and Dolphin, and the Device Notifier alerts me accordingly... This has got to be something stupid I'm missing. I've been Googling this all day. Anybody got any ideas?
Edit:
Sorry, forgot to mention it's an Android (gingerbread) phone, and I'm running the lts kernel.

How did you start KDE? As recommended from [https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/KDE#Using_KDM_(KDE_Display_Manager) here]?
If you are using xinitrc, please read [https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Xinitrc Xinitrc]. You may have some polikit problem using this method.

  • Windows Server 2008 R2 only detect USB storage drives if I restart the system

    Hi, I have a Windows Server 2008 R2 with an weird behaviour. I cannot connect any USB drive (not USB external hard disk neither pendrives). Windows device manager detects the device as
    Mass Storage Device, but with a yellow exclamation sign. The exact error code is:
    The device cannot start.
    However, if I restart the machine keeping the USB disk plugged, the hard disk (or pendrive) is correctly detected and usable.
    I've tried:
    Update mass storage driver.
    Review HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\usbstor "Start"
    and is 3 (I think is right)
    I've tried with different usb hard disks that are working in other PCs.
    I've tried with large (>1TB) disks and small (8GB) pendrives.
    I've tried all available USB ports, front and back, with same behaviour.
    Always I get a yellow exclamation  (Device cannot start) and if I restart the computer the device is working perfectly.
    Can someone help me?
    Thanks in advance
    Edit: Here is the log of connecting a Kingstone USB 8GB pendrive

    I tried, but windows says that the best driver is alredy installed.
    Now I've just tried to delete (uninstall) absolutly all devices under Universal Serial Bus Controller
    (host controllers, root hubs, etc) into Device Manager, and then I've click on
    Scan for hardware changes to force reinstall of all USB drivers. After that I've connected my USB external hard disk and has been correctly recognized and its working. However I don't know if when I'll restar the server and connect a new one usb device
    it will continue working or not. I'll try later, because this is a production server.
    I've tried for drivers into HP site to update or reinstall, but there isn't any driver for motherboard or USB controller. It's an HP ML350 G6.

  • DataSource not available after restart

    Hi,
    I have created a new JDBC driver for MS SQL Server 2005 and a custom data source that is using the JDBC driver and that is connecting to my database. Upon creation of the data source, the data source is shown as available (green) and works fine.
    However, when I restart my system, the data source is still there, but is not available (red). When I delete the data source and create it again, it works fine.
    Does anybody know why the data source might be not available after the restart of the server? Any help would be highly appreciated.
    Best regards
    Holger

    I don't know what I should change in the MS SQL Server. And as the DataSource works correctly once I have deleted and recreated it, I would have thought that the problem is somewhere with the application server.
    A colleague of mine is using the same application and is having the same problem, although he independently created his system.
    Best regards
    Holger

  • Time Machine external USB drive not available at boot

    I have a late 2012 iMac running Mavericks 10.4.9. I use Time Machine with a Toshiba 3TB external drive.  The Toshiba drive is usually left powered up.  Every time I boot the iMac and try to force a backup, Time Machine reports the Toshiba disk is not available.  When I open Time Machine preferences, the Toshiba drive does not show until I power-cycle it and re-select it.   Also occasionally it reports that I did not eject it properly.  But it NEVER shows in Devices or on my desk top (like a thumb-drive does for example) so I wouldn't know how to eject it anyway.
    Any ideas on where I am going wrong?
    Thanks!

    I also have a MacBook Pro with Leopard. I have a new 500GB Lacie d2 safe external drive that my computer recognizes but Time machine does not. Formating the disk in journaled Mac OS Extended format does not solve the problem. Lacie says they are working on it. Anyone have any ideas?

  • Available storage not available

    I bought more storage again, I should have 20 GB available, still can't take pictures,  video or download iOS7        What's up? Thanks!

    Unfortunately, you thought you were doing the right thing to purchase storage, but the purchase does not help at all.
    Your iPhone has however much storage it came with when you purchased it.  That number cannot change.
    What you purchased was additional storage space for iCloud backups.  This will not help you at all.
    To clear space on your iPhone, go to Settings > General > Usage.  This will display your storage hogs.  Reduce some of them.

  • Local storage not available

    Hello,
    I am trying to create a non-clustered server pool with a single VM server 3.1.1, using Manager also at 3.1.1.
    So far I've created a Server Pool and added the discovered server to this pool.
    The next step would be to create a repository on this server by going to Repositories tab, add a repository and click the "physical disk" radio button. At this point I am able to select the desired Server Pool.
    However, I don't see any available disks to choose as the repository - only blank combo boxes:
    http://d.pr/i/4eYY
    http://d.pr/i/T0G3
    This looks to me like a wrong window, since the label is for a san server and not a physical disk array or something along those lines.
    The internal server disks are arranged in a raid configuration and a single partition.
    I can't figure out what I'm missing. Please advise.

    >
    What make/model is your hardware, also what RAID controller?
    HP DL380/5's have known issues because Oracle uses an unsupported driver.
    >
    Its a proliant ml150 g6 server, with a P410i Smart Array Controller.
    The controller is the same as mentioned in note 1373817.1, which is probably what you are looking at as well. I've experimented with that solution with no positive results yet.
    >
    To see local storage to the VM the disk must be empty. You can not make one large partition on your raid array and use that same partition for your VM installation... and then expect to see the free space available to be used for a repo.
    Check out page 49 of the user guide
    As long as no partition and data are present the device will be detected as a raw disk. The choice is yours
    to use the local disks either to provision logical storage volumes as disks for virtual machines or to install a
    storage repository. If you place a storage repository on the local disk, an OCFS2 file system is installed.
    You will have to break up your RAID volume into multiple LUNS. You should then be able to see the unused LUNS. I've personally never done this but I do have some SSD drives I use for extending database cache. I can see these drives just fine locally. The key is there can't be a file system on the disks. Oracle VM expects a raw device.
    >
    Oh, I shouldn't have said a single partition, as far as partitions go, it's the default layout: /, /boot, swap and free space (it's a single drive as far as RAID goes). Can that work?
    Thanks for that info, I might have to reconfigure the RAID as you suggest, I wasn't aware that it must be a raw device, that brings much valued insight :-) Although I should have expected this since VM 2.1 probably works in a similar way, I just never used the VM Manager and didn't study repos.py closely.

  • Purchased storage not available

    I just purchased more iCloud storage (the 10GB plan) but it's still reading that I only have 5GB available. Do I have to activate this plan in some way?

    There is a difference between iCloud storage and storage on your iPod. Purchasing iCloud storage does not give you more storage on your iPod.
    To download and install an app the iPod needs storage available equal to about three times the file download size.
    If you sync from your iTunes library less storage available is required.
    Does the app/iPod meet this?

  • Storage not available

    I Don't have enough storage to take a picture! I have deleted apps, picture and emails but nothing helping ! I bought more storage but still not helping ?

    Purchasing iCloud storage is not going to help you with your issue. Your device does not have enough available storage to perform the task you want performed. Go to Settings>General>Usage, and under "Storage" at the top, review what is taking up so much room on your device. You may need to remove more apps. If you have a lot of videos that you have taken with your camera, you may need to import those to your computer so you can delete them from your device.
    Cheers,

  • USB Drive not available after 10.5.2 - URGENT (cannot access work files)

    Just got the Software update for 10.5.2, everything seems to work fine, except that my system no longer recognizes my USB Western Digital My Book 500GB drive. The drive does not mount automatically as it did before. When I go into Disk Utility, I can see the drive, but when I click on 'mount' it says that this drive cannot be mounted.
    The drive is still good, as I can read it from all of the other machines I have, it also is accessible from MSFT Windows on the Mac (via VMware Fusion). The Drive is formatted for Windows and worked fine before.
    Please help, I keep most of my files on that drive and if it does not work soon, I will have to revert full-time back to my Dell so that I can work.
    Why was this upgrade not fully tested? Is this par for the course with Mac OS upgrades...obviously this is my first Mac, and I was pretty pleased, but I have never lost a hard drive EVERY during a Windows upgrade...this is unacceptable.

    Welcome to Apple Discussions neighbor!
    You may need to remove a file from:
    Macintosh HD -> Library -> Launch Daemons
    called "com.WD.WDDriveServices.plist"
    If that does not work, and the solutions offered here do not work, see my data recovery solutions on this FAQ*:
    http://www.macmaps.com/backup.html
    And never let there be only one copy of your data when upgrading again. You never know when a hard drive might fail.

  • Newly installed Elements 11 will not open without restarting the PC each time.

    Using Windows 7 I uninstalled Elements8 and installed new Elements 11 but if I close down Elements 11 it will not reopen unless I restart the PC each time. Also I cannot uninstall E11 because I get  message that "thumbdatabase.db3" is in use, so I cannot reinstall to see if that will solve the proble. Please help?

    Working with your Operating System’s Tools
    You simply need to find out which process is keeping those files open/ blocked. In fact it's quite likely that your PSE never quits correctly due to some issue on your system and that keeps those files in use...

  • Restore does not work without restart

    iPod classic w/120 GB hard drive.  When I restore the ipod it will not show up in iTunes or my disk utility until I restart with the ipod plugged in.  If I run repair disk in the utility it finds a couple of errors and fixes them.  Next restore is the same.  I would like to give this to a friend but do not want to give them a headache.  If I put my ear to the ipod it makes a faint clicking sound.  This disappears once the problem resolves.  There is also a steady high pitched whine like the hard drives is running when it is plugged into the computer.  If I eject the ipod but leave it plugged in the drive stops spinning. Any ideas about wht the problem is?

    Most likely your iPod hardisk is dying.
    Do a Disk Diagnostic, as posted by tt2

    This wont fix your problem, but it gives some idea., like getting some professional hardisk repair service or Apps.
    Anyway, it would be a very bad idea, to give someone this problematic iPod as a gift to a friend, I would give it to someone I dont like, and let him feel your frustration.
    Have a nice day!

  • Adobe flash player settings for local storage not available on menu.

    The right-click menu for Flash Player does not show the icon for local storage and I can't save online games. Only settings for 'display', 'microphone', and 'camera' show.

    The root cause is that the anti-clickjacking logic in our dialog is throwing a false positive (it thinks the dialog is obscured or otherwise tampered with).  This happens a lot with videos when pixels are moving behind the dialog.
    The easiest way to solve this is to just allow local shared objects.
    Go to Control Panel > Flash Player > Storage and select Allow sites to store information on this computer.

    By deleting or syncing data off of it to free up space.

  • Firefox will not open without restarting computer

    I do not shut down my computer as we use "Log Me In" so I and another person can log in from wherever we want, anytime. About 5 months ago the problem started. I can open FF when I come in every morning, but when I come back in the afternoon or later in the evening, Firefox will NOT open.. It does nothing.. I can click to open, use the drop down and select open, nothing happens. I have to restart my computer every afternoon in order to get Firfox to open.. So I have begun transferring all my links to IE as it does not have any problme like that.
