A little help on my failing USB connection after flashinng CM Rom

Hi Guys,

I have a Samsung Galaxy S GT-I9000.
My problem is as followed:

I installed the Custom Rom: cm-11-20140420-NIGHTLY-galaxysmtd.zip
I used CWM for that to do.
After flashing the phone with the custom rom he starts nicely.
I pass the startup questions and the phone is ready to be used.
When I try to connect the phone through the USB cable (I want the Playstore and Gmail), the PC does not create a connection and a drive to copy too. I did activate the use device as mass storage device on the screen on the phone.

When I go to the "Safely Remove Hardware and Eject Media" (in the right bottom of the windows screen) he does say "Eject GT-I9000".
In the "Diskmanagement" I don't see any mass storage devices from the phone.

I tried to use a lower more stable version of the rom: cm-11-20140405-SNAPSHOT-M5-galaxysmtd.zip but still that had not any result.

Pls help me out with my phone
Phone info:
Modelnumber: GT-I9000

You need to install the gapps package in order to install the play store and gmail along with other google apps.
As for your connection issue, what does your computer says, does it recognise your phone. If you run a windows machine you might need to install the samsung's drivers. And it might be a good idea to uninstall kies, if it is on your computer, as you won't be using it.

Thx for the advice.
I know about the gapps package.. ;) That is why I tried to connect through USB. :)
I have not installed KIES. just the samsung drivers. Furthermore I also have a Note 3 which connects flawless.
When I connect my GT-I9000, Windows also makes the connection sound.
Furthermore it is also noticable in the "Remove Hardware en Eject Media" from Windows 7, but not as a mass storage.
So it seems to be something on the phone itself.

What ROM did you come from? Did you do a full wipe before flashing if it wasn't from a previous nightly?

I came from the original stock rom. I did the dalvik cache wipe and so.
I installed the latest nightly. That had the issues. I thought it might be the problem of that nightly.
To make sure that was not the problem I went back to the latest Snapshot. That still kept the problems.
So I have no clue for now.

Did you turn on USB storage on your phone?
Without doing that, you wan't see the sdcards on your PC

Scroll down left part of your uppest status bar, you will see the option, click on it and turn on.

I did turn on the Mass storage on the phone. When I plug in the USB that screen appears.
Then i selected the option to add phone as storage device.

But that does not solve the problem. Still no disk appears in my Windows explorer.

New phone

Hi all devs and friends... I have gone ahead and purchased a Nexus 5. Its an incredible phone and am enjoying it a lot. Needless to say, I had its bootloader unlocked, rooted, installed custom recovery and custom kernel within the first hour of getting it.

I still have my trusty SGS i9000 which I have filled up with games and given to my little daughter. I will now be sharing time between SGS and N5 forums now. Will never actually leave SGS forums I guess :)

Nevertheless, I thought this to be as appropriate a time as any to thank all the wonderful devs and friends here who help out each other and keep the SGS relevant even after more than 3 years... kudos to all!!! :good:

PS: you will see this message in different threads... that is because I owe this to many devs and don't want to miss out thanking any of them.

Pawitp what you think about CMA kernel from didhiy???

Sent from my GT-I9000 using xda app-developers app

AFAIK, everyone's using the CMA implementation I've released earlier, which is buggy in a lot of places. A different approach is required, but I'm not really interested in debugging/writing it.

    Note: The partition layout of CM11 is the same as CM10.2.

    Known Issues
    Please do not report bugs if it is already listen in the list of known issues
    • Some CyanogenMod features a missing - please do not file bug reports for those.
    • Cannot set value via custom brightness "Edit" menu
    • No account selected for Backup (gapps problem?)

    Reporting Bugs

    You are allowed to report bugs only in this thread. Before reporting a bug, please make sure you are running as stock as possible. This means no custom kernel, no custom framework modification, etc. If you are using any of the above modifications, please flash the rom again to get rid of the modifications before reporting.

    REPORT BUGS IN THIS THREAD ONLY

    • Grab a logcat right after the problem has occurred. (Please include at least a few pages of the log, not just the last few lines, unless you know what you're doing.)
    • If it is a random reboot, grab /proc/last_kmsg. (Do not bother getting a logcat unless you can get it just before the reboot. A logcat after a reboot is useless)
    • If the problem disappears after running "setenforce 0" from a root shell, grab /data/misc/audit/audit.log
    Remember to provide as much info as possible. The more info you provide, the more likely that the bug will be solved. The following is a useful format to follow. Note: If you can provide the latest night/build that the bug didn't exist, it would greatly help in tracking down what caused it.

    Code:
    What is your--
    Phone model:
    Radio (baseband):
    CM version:
    CM Download url:
    Gapps version:

    FAQ
    Why is there no transparent status bar/lockscreen widget/"OK Google"?
    Those features have been disabled by Google for low RAM device in order to save RAM. You can try enabling it by removing "ro.config.low_ram=true" from /system/build.prop, however, it is not an officially supported setup.

    Does this ROM support FM radio?
    I've checked and the new FM API in CM is not really compatible with our device without heavy modification. Applications using the new API expect to be able to read the FM input as it if were another stream, but FM on our device only does pass-through from FM receiver to speaker/headset, which causes certain functionalities to not work such as volume control. Maybe one can modify the audio routing table in the kernel to have it behave like the API expected, but I'm not really interested in investing time to do that.

    TL;DR: No built-in FM radio except if someone else does it and submits a patch.

    Why aren't configurations with more than 368 MB used?
    Kernels with more than 368 MB have to sacrifice high-bitrate HD playback ability. The current memory configuration has been designed for maximum compatibility.

    Wi-Fi AP does not work after restoring /data with CWM
    CWM does not handle SELinux very well yet. Run this in a root shell to clear all wifi data and reboot.

    Code:
    rm -rf /data/misc/wifi

    Need more RAM?

    Need more RAM?

    Using CMA, memory usually reserved for hardware (camera, video encoding/decoding, jpeg encoding) can be freed for use by applications when they are not in-use. All features, including 720p recording, high-rate video decoding, etc. will still work as before.

    This is a WIP. No ETA. There are still a lot of problems with it and it might not be released at all if I don't have time to fix all the issues. Please don't ask to test either, if I need testers, I'd post it in this thread.

    About RAM mode

    Due to an oversight, this build wasn't shipped with low RAM mode enabled. If anyone wants to try, you can add "ro.config.low_ram=true" to your /system/build.prop.

    This will disable several features such as translucent status bar, lock screen widgets.

    Future builds will ship with this option enabled. (This is actually mandated by the Android CTS. Those that prefer the effects over low memory usage must manually remove the config from build.prop. Before anyone asks, it won't be configurable from Settings.)

    This should provide better performance if you use zRAM (Settings -> Performance -> Memory Management). Please try the various settings and report back how it affects your experience.
