Hey, Sorry if this has been answered before but anyways;

I just rooted my streak 7 and put on the ICS Beta5.0.1 ROM. Now when I plug it into the PC nothing happens, it still charges fine, but nothing in the way of seeing the storage device in My Computer.

Is this a common problem with this build? (I didn't see anything about it in the build notes)
If not any ideas on how to fix?

If it is, what are some alternatives to accessing the internal memory? I want to put on Gapps via CWM, but as far as I can tell CWM only reads update zips from the internal memory... (If I'm wrong about this please correct me)

Any help would be great

Cheers!

Not sure if MTP is broken on that build or you may have to install drivers again. No, the only way to install Gapps is from CWM or TWRP. On the other hand a factory "Update.pkg" can only be installed from a factory recovery, CWM/TRWP can't do it.

Whoops! All must be done from an external SD card!

You need to possible reinstall drivers.
So I went into device manager and uninstalled the device.

Unplugged and plugged back in and it comes up as an 'MTP USB Device' under 'Portable Devices'.

So from the ADB drivers zip I pointed it to install the MTP driver (tried the ADB fastboot driver too but it wouldnt allow it).
It starts installing the MTP driver but it fails. The reason it gives is: 'This device Cannot start. (Code 10)

I've only tested 5.0.1 for a couple hours, but MTP isnt particularly reliable on it.

Put gapps on an external sdcard and flash from there.

Yeah CWM (V6) doesn't recognise my external SD card for some reason. tried a couple of different cards too...

Anyways I just flashed back to stock 3.2, reinstalled PC drivers, put Gapps on the internal flashed back to ICS and loaded gapps through CWM. All is good.

Still won't connect to the PC on the ICS rom, but that's okay for now. Got everything I need.

Cheers.
