Kyocera Brigadier as mass storage connecting to Debian Linux

Hi all. I have a new Kyocera Brigadier but I can't get it to transfer files using Debian. The phone is running Android 4.4.2 and I'm using Debian Wheezy 64bit current. I set the android to Media Sync Mode but I can't find it as a device. If I don't set it to Media Sync Mode, then it registers as a CDRom but I can only see a few system folders (looking into the ISO), not anywhere to put my music files. Thoughts?
Here is a dmesg http://paste.debian.net/163512/
https://www.verizonwireless.com/support/knowledge-base-106426/ My phone, but I don't have the Mass Storage option.
Why is it difficult to transfer files when Android is Linux-based? I've never had a problem like this before. I've had an ADP1 and an Android X2 before and this never happened until now.
I found this thread Kyocera Brigadier as mass storage but that was for Mac.
Thanks!

You need to install the Android File Transfer application for Mac in order to get the mass storage functionality on your Mac.

Kyocera Brigadier as mass storage

I want to connect my kyocera to my mac as a mass storage device. It explains it here: USB Mass Storage Brigadier by Kyocera | Verizon Wireless
However, the "mass storage mode" option isn't visible on the phone when I connect it. The other three options are. I see that macs require the "android file transfer" app in OSX, but does that mean I can't mount it at all?

N95 Mass storage connection issue.

I have a strange problem with my N95. When I connect to my PC Vista cannot install the drivers for the mass storage/data transfer application. The drivers for PC suite, media player and image print work fine, but it appears that the drivers for Mass Storage are not on the CD.
I decided to upgrade my firmware to attempt to solve the problem, but when using Nokia Software Updater, the program stalls at the detecting device stage (step 2/3).
Can anyone help? As without the ability to connect the phone as a mass storage device, I cannot use Nokia Map Loader (again it will not detect my phone - despite PC suite detecting it fine)

i also have the same problem, but wonder why no one has replied a solution to this issue. as you describe exact same problem. if anything ive found with this phone so far, its a NIGHTMARE.
there was definatly a problem with the firmware when it was first shipped, after this was updated fixed some things, but the WLAN wouldnt work and needed alot of research online to fix it, nokia support to note didnt have a clue. The problem i had was due to setting the aerial to always on, and not power saving. Anyway if someone has an answer as to why the mass storage driver wont install and so i can put the nokia maps on the phome, it would be much appreciated.

'mass storage' connection option showing error mes...

Up until a yesterday , my phone was working fine . Then , yesterday , when I tried to connect it to my PC via the nokia-provided USB cable , things went kaput.
The phone began by working normally, asking me to select a connectivity option, while my computer gave me the message that it had detected a new MTP device , and then asked me to insert the disc that might have come with this device. I cancelled this , as always, and selected the 'mass storage' option on my phone. At this point , the phone gave me this error message :-
"Memory card in use by another application. Please wait."
and the computer , instead of treating the phone like an external storage device , began going through the same sequence of " found MTP device . Please insert disc " over and over . This is happening even after I reset my phone to factory settings. What do I do now ?
Can anyone please help ?

Are you sure you selected Mass Storage mode on your phone in the connection prompt, and not Nokia Suite / Ovi Suite / PC Suite? If you have restored your phone to factory settings and are stil having problems, then you will need to take your phone to your local Nokia Care point for them to inspect.

Asha 501- usb mass storage connectivity issues.

hey guys, I've just connected my phone to an android tab using usb mode. 1st thing is it didn't detect my phone as mass storage. 2nd thing is after unplugging my phone, all the content in my memory card seems to be scrambled, everything looks in different language/characters. Not sure what to do apart from reformatting the memory card. Any suggestions...
I tried restarting the phone, reinserted the memory card. All info on memory card is scrambled.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Interestingly this just published today but not familiar with Asha 501 USB connectivity behaviour other than as a Windows USB mass storage device: http://conversations.nokia.com/2013/08/05/nokia-asha-501-how-to-add-music/

N91 mass storage connection problem

The other day my brother got his hands on my hanset and was trying to transfer music from it to his laptop. When i used to plug the usb in it gave me the option of conection with mass storage, pc suite and something else i cant remember. Now i only get the option of pc suite which is really annoying as i always use mass stoage. Any ideas how i can rectify this option, thank-you

Got it sorted now!!!

Mass Storage Driver Severe Crash - USB Mass Storage device useless

I am running the latest, updated version of OSX Leopard; Hardware Growler; and Parallels Desktop. Today, as I was doing a very resource-intensive task on Windows XP - via parallels - I plugged in my Samsung M610 to try to access the memory card. I then closed Windows XP, and noticed that my cpu was still registering at 100% output. Opening Activity Monitor and looking at the processes there, I saw that Mass Storage was taking 100.00 units of CPU output, and was not responding, I immediately clicked end process. Much to my dismay however, Activity Monitor then proceeded to lock up, so I forced it to quit, which caused finder to lock up in turn. Throughout this time, my cpu was still working overtime, so I decided to power the computer off. Upon rebooting and much "whew"-ing I tried to plug my Cell Phone in again; as usual Hardware Growler notified me of the connection and it's details, however, confusingly finder had no knowledge of any mass storage connection. After multiple connects and reconnects, testing all USB ports on my MBP (and being annoyed by the system telling me to properly find and eject hardware before removing it, which I suppose I should take as a good sign) my memory card remained invisible to finder. Hardware growler continues to perfectly recognize the device connection.
The most odd thing about this particular problem, is that other USB devices are recognized... at least one other Mass storage device is, but I have only one other device to test at the moment.... Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Mass Storage - Linux - Debian Wheezy

I have just connected my phone to my Debian Wheezy machine in a hope that unlike Samsung, Sony will have Mass Storage as a option insted of MTP (Media Transfer Mode) / PTP (Picture Transfer Protocol).

Why is there no support for Linux / Mass Storage on Z3?

If you have an external SD card in your phone you can connect this in MSC instead of MTP. You can set this under Settings -> Xperia Connectivity -> USB Connectivity -> USB connection mode. But the phones internal storage can only be connected using MTP. As i understand it, this is because MSC would require your PC to have exclusive access to the memory and the phones internal storage is used by the apps and OS so it can't be used for MSC.

Connecting to mass storage and printers on another router

I have my wireless router connected to another router that router is connected to the internet. My wireless connection works fine getting to the internet, but I am unable to see the other items connected to the first router. This would be my network printer and mass storage. What can I do?

Windows uses a protocol called SMB to connect to network shares. You will need to route ports 139, 445, and possibly 137 between the 2 networks. Unless you have a specific reason I would dump the non-wireless router. Having 2 routers is asking for problems and making your network overly complicated.

N97 restarts when connecting to PC via Mass Storag...

Hi guys,
My friend has a N97 and she changed the font using E:\Resource\Fonts\ folder method. The font was successfully changed; however, she didn't like it.
So she decided to change back the font, but whenever she connects the N97 to PC via "Mass Storage" mode, the phone restarts itself, and by that I mean EVERY SINGLE TIME it'll restart.
Therefore we tried "PC Suite" mode, but we're unable to make any changes to the Fonts folder (ie delete / rename / cut-paste).
I've also tried using X-plore, but whenever I try to delete the [s60snr.ttf/etc...] files, xplore will give me an error: "Can't Delete File: E:\Resource\Fonts". I'm sure that the file isn't in "read-only" if that helps anyone.
The fonts are stored in the 30gb internal memory inside the N97, so it's impossible to swap out the memory and delete on another phone/computer.
I appreciate any answers

Hi Guys,
I had same problem with my N97 mini. I do not have external memory card. I installed 'FONTS' in my mass memory. Font changed but if I connect my phone in mass storage mode, phone resets.
Here is what I did,
1. Copy all my data in PC using PC suit mode ( I suspect back utility will not work here because it will restore the back up including fonts folder in mass memory. I am not sure though). Also copy RESOURCE folder in your PC ( you can delete fonts folder in this copied folder in PC. I made a mistake of copying only RESOURCE folder you can copy all the folders from mass memory and restore it later.
2. disconnect the phone from PC
3. Open , Office --> File mgr. --> Mass Memory --> got to options --> Scroll down --> format mass memory.
That's it.
Your phone will be 'shut down' after formatting is completed.
Restart the phone connect it to PC suit. You might not be able to see mass memory. In that case connect it in ' mass memory' mode. You can find your phone is not resetting. Copy RESOURCE folder from PC with out fonts folder.
You may reinstall firmware and reinstall all the application you need.
It worked form me. Hope it works for you. Do it on your own risk. Do not forget to copy the data from mass memory.
You may find HARD RESET options (*#7370#) but it only resets your C drive and not F OR G Drive.
If you have installed Fonts in G (External memory). I guess you can just remove it from phone and remove the fonts folder easily. Just remove external memory use card reader to connect it to PC and remove.

ICS - Live With Walkman - Can't connect USB in MSC (Mass Storage) mode

Hi Guys n Girls,
I recently updated my LWW to ICS and I can't for the life of me get the phone connect to my PC in MSC, mass storage mode.
Can anyone help?
Thank you.

This question seems "answered" without an answer actually being there? I see the same problem - connecting the phone to my (Ubuntu/Linux) machine before (running GB) ended up in the phone (SD card) being mounted as external USB storage device just as one would except. With ICS, this doesn't seem to work out of the box anymore, but unfortunately so far I also didn't manage to change this behaviour. Any hints on that?
TIA and all the best,
Kristian

Canon Vixia HF R400 - USB Mass Storage?

I recently purchased a Canon Vixia HF R400 and was wondering if there is a way to make the camera appear as a USB mass storage device (like an external hard drive or flash drive).
When I plugged in the camera using the provided USB cable to a Debian (Squeeze) system, Shotwell Photo Manager appears as an option but it never successfully gets any data.
I've looked through the manual but found no reference to USB mass storage. Am I limited to Windows/Mac for accessing the files via USB? That would sad, as I have neither available to me at home.
Thanks in advance!

FYIGMO63: I'm using Linux -- Debian (Squeeze). I don't own a Windows nor a Mac system.
I've seen mention of other models of camcorders where the user is apparently asked to select their USB mode, but my camcorder doesn't seem to prompt for that. I poked around the settings menus as well and didn't find any where to specify USB connection mode.
Just so that I'm looking in the right place, could you give me an example for how you would do that on your camcorder (and what model you have)?
It would REALLY be nice if a CANON representative could look at this thread and tell me what I might be doing wrong to mount the camcorder as a USB Mass Storage device ... or if it's even possible under Linux.
I have 6 days left to return it at BestBuy, which I'd like to do if I can confirm that this is not possible for me, as I mentioned above, I have no Windows nor Mac computers here so I would need a generic USB Mass Storage solution that works in Linux.
Thanks!

Time Capsule vs. Other Mass Storage Device

I am a Mac newby seeking advice. I recently purchased the MBA below to replace my personal PC. My previous setup was a desktop with plenty of storage to handle my needs (including iTunes) and I backed up data directly to an external hard drive (I know pretty basic).
After purchasing the MBA, I realized I do not have enough internal hard drive space to store all of my music and my current external drive is too small for all the media and backup of the MBA. Also, the point of the MBA is to be mobile. Also, I would like my Sonos music system (with an application similar to iTunes) to be able to access the music library. Lastly, I have far to many songs purchase outside of iTunes to use iTunes Match. Therefore, I started seeking wireless alternatives to store my music and backup my MBA. Although an NAS would probably be ideal, I have found out through trial and error that the basic systems do not work with a MAC and the only ones with a prayer are the more expensive ones (i.e. Synology and QNAPS). Therefore, I have decided to pursue a more simplified approach.
My Internet and TV provider is CenturyLink. Their router is very basic with only 802.11g speed and without any USB ports. The following configuration has been suggested to my by some more experienced Apple users to provide wireless data access and backup.
Requesting CenturyLink provide me with a basic modem.
Purchasing an Airport Extreme (or similar wireless n router with a USB port).
Connecting the Airport Extreme (or other wireless router) to the basic modem.
Purchasing a Time Capsule (or other mass storage device).
Partitioning it using either the specific one for the Time Capsule (or Disk Utility for other mass storage devices) to provide one volume for my media and one for backup using Time Machine.
Moving the media from my old external drive (which is catalogued with folders for each artist, subfolders for each album and the songs in the subfolders) by connecting the old mass storage device and Time Machine to my MBA and using Finder to do this (see the questions below regarding this).
Moving/cataloging the media from the Time Capsule (or other mass storage device) by dragging it into the iTunes window.
Connecting the Time Capsule (or other mass storage device) to the USB port of the Airport Extreme (or other wireless router).
Setting up Time Machine to use the volume partitioned for backups.
Possibly having to move cataloging files from my iTunes, Music folder to the external drive and pointing iTunes to the Time Capsule (or other mass storage device) through Preferences, Advanced to access the music.
Overall, I am concerned with the total cost. I just spent a lot of money, not only purchasing the MBA, but also the iPad 3 and upgrading my cell phone to the iPhone 5 (I skipped the 4). It seems that by the time I purchase an Airport Extreme and a Time Capsule, I could also have just bought a NAS like the Synology 213 with 2 X 1TB drives, connect it to the existing wireless router via ethernet connections and have a more comprehensive solution. Based upon these instructions and cost concerns (and bad experience), I have several questions related to this.
Does this configuration and these instructions make sense, including those for moving and accessing my music files through iTunes (i.e. will it work)?
Are both the Airport Extreme and Time Capsule necessary to make this work easily or can I purchase alternatives to either or each and if so, what is recommended? If they are necessary, would you recommend doing this or buying one of the aforementioned NAS's to a Mac newby?
Given the file structure for my music on the old external mass storage drive, can I simply move the folders over with the subfolders containing the musice files in them or do I have to literally enter into each subfolder, select all and move them subfolder by subfolder (i.e. album by album)?
Am I missing something totally better and easier solution?
I would be massively grateful to anyone who can provide some good answers, advice and guidance. I am about to pull my hair out!!!!
Thanks,
WinoSkiBoy

They both said about the same thing except the Apple Store business tech said to buy an Airport Extreme and just attach a partitioned external third party HDD to it.
Except that is flakey for TM backup..
http://pondini.org/TM/Airport.html
And slow as the proverbial dog.. although I guess the dog is old.
And totally inadequate as a media store or server.
Apple's pricing is pretty cunning.. I really doubt you are going to find a cheaper unit to do both wireless and TM backups than the TC. And it is a perfectly good device to do that. It is good to have in the network. And Apple sure make their products work with other apple products.. so it does work better than other similar cost products.. although you miss a lot of features that Apple predecided for you.
But I don't think anyone has the ideal solution to your problem. Apple believe in cloud. And if you have fibre internet that will work really well.. forks out your money and apple will store your stuff. But for the real world most of us do not have internet connection even a fraction of speed required. And it can be another decade before we will. We need a box that is half way between a TC and media PC, a file store and a NAS. Will Apple make one.. ?? I don't think so.. They believe in cloud..
You can make the missing link one yourself. If you are so inclined.. A HP microserver running freeNAS can do TM backups and makes an excellent media store because it can do AFP. You can put a graphics card in it and plug it into your TV. You can use it with a airport extreme. But you will need a degree in Geek.. !! The synology is a preconfigured form of that.. No Geekdom required. Synology seems to have the upper hand.. this week.
Let me make a suggestion.. Figure out if you are going to jump into the Apple way of doing stuff.. which is basically itunes on computer as a server.. and the whole network.. working as part of this.. so any media is pushed from a store in itunes.. whether local or internet.. if you want to do it that way.. getting something other than the air to run itunes is well worth it. That is what a NAS cannot do.. it cannot be a media player.
Or you do hybrid.. ie you don't use put all your media into itunes, you use a bit of this and bit of something else.. As long as that can play files.. stored on NAS or even on the TC without the itunes requirement.. It won't be as pretty. But it isn't hard to get working.. as long as you accept this isn't going to be the perfect Apple solution.
