About SG USB Mass Storage Enabler

Requires root access!! Does not work on KitKat and above for now.

This application allows you to enable USB Mass Storage mode on select Samsung and Sony devices.

This will export your microSD card over USB as a mass storage device, this will NOT work with your internal memory due to hardware and software limitations.

You can also create shortcuts to easily toggle between UMS on and off.

Tested or reported working on:
* Samsung Galaxy S4 (GT-I9500, GT-I9505, SGH-I337, SGH-M919)
* Samsung Galaxy SIII (GT-I9300, GT-I9305, SPH-L710)
* Samsung Galaxy Note II (GT-N7100)
* Samsung Grand Duos (GT-I9082)
Thanks to d4fseeker and Sakaschi for the methods used to enable UMS.

Internet permissions required for ads.

As of version 2.2, there's a new pro version that has auto-switching. If you have donated before, please contact me and I'll arrange a workaround for you as it's unfair for you to pay twice, thank you :)

Keep telling me that the "device is not rooted" after granted root via supersu. A bug makes it totally useless on my phone. Fyi.. the device is rooted, and root is verified. I hope the dev will fix it.. Device: note 4 @ android 6.0.1

Doesn't detect root access, though "granted root access" massage appears. Installed BusyBox but that didn't helped. Running on Android 6.0. Will try to make it work and rate 5⭐ if it will.

Superb, exactly what I was looking for. I *never* use the MTP mode, and rely heavily on connecting my Galaxy note as a Windows volume. I was getting sick of the procedure to manually put the device in mass storage mode every time I connected to the PC, and this app makes it a breeze. Thanks!

Requires root & busybox installation. After I installed this application I restarted my Verizon Ellipsis 7. Upon reboot, using this app I was able to successfully mount my 32gb SD card via USB Mass Storage. Thanks for the great functionality! I've missed my direct UMS connection.

Great. I can see thumbnails now instead of generic file icons on my SD card, but can't rename or copy/move. Despite fact I'm rooted, this thing won't mount card with read/write permission. It's read only. Useless to me. Galaxy S3

Not it just did not work. It is also asked to download and install some other program. Both programs were complicated to install, which took a lot of time to read all that bs. Poor. I need a simple and a working app.

Works great on Jelly Bean but not KitKat. Widget icon always shows UMS Off regardless of current state. Hopefully it can be made to work on KitKat soon. Did the upgrade to KitKat and regret it greatly. Please get this app working on KitKat. Regards.

After a bit of messing around to enable root access finally got this to work on KitKat. Not 100% certain if just root access alone made it work as I have customised a fair bit of the firmware

Everytime I run this app, it says I do not have root installed. I do, and Busybox is installed. I've power cycled, reinstalled Busybox but nothing works. I'm running other apps that require root with no problems!

There's a way I can mount my phone to my PS3 ?? Cause I connect the phone to my PS3 and do it doesn't do anything. I will rate this app 5 stars if you guys fix this minor problem

Works great on my S4 (Cyanogenmod 10.2), but on my Note 8.0 (stock Samsung software), it shows up as a read-only CD drive... better than nothing I suppose... any idea how to fix that? Still, really useful... mass storage should never have been removed from newer Android versions. Might try Cyanogenmod on my Note just to get this to work... that's how essential mass storage mode is.

Didn't work initially on my Samsung Galaxy S4 MINI but it seems fine now that I have updated BusyBox. It's ridiculous though that we have to restor to third-party software to reclaim functionality that was already present in previous releases of Android, and that has been tried and tested for many years and works on all desktop OSs without the need for device-specific drivers. Google wipe their bum on all this goodness and hand us the biggest pile of sh*t they've ever assembled: MTP.

On a freshly rooted U.S. Cellular variant G900R4 galaxy s5..I want to spend the few dollars to get pro..but if I do that will I be able to use it as a mass storage for my ps3, or is that just not an option yet? I hate having to sync my media servers each time and continuously pulling my sd card out to put in my adapter is bad on the card.Can some helpful folks point me in the right direction? Other than that works flawlessly thanks bunches.If I can get my ps3 issue sorted I'll definitely give 5 stars!

I too am experiencing the dreaded "CD drive" issue. I would GREATLY appreciate it if the developer(s) would fix this! I've been wanting a program like this ever since I got the phone. I'm using an SGH-i747, the AT&T (US) model, on stock 4.3 Jelly Bean. EDIT: It's STILL showing up as a CD drive! PLEASE tell me how to fix this! Thanks.

ERROR MESSAGE : An error occurred while identifying the SD Cars. The card is either not ready or not properly inserted. If there is one inserted, please exit the application and try again, if it still doesn't work, please contact the developer via e-mail. Please go through it.

In order to use this you also need a compatible kernel that permits the use of ums. In my case for the note 3 it's the compulsion kernel.

It worked under my previous 4.2.2 Android. Doesn't seem to work now under kit kat Gummy. Anyway hope that this gets improved. But having said that and used this for quite sometime, this is a very good app.

This worked great on my Note 2 running 4.3. But when I upgraded to 4.4, it stopped working UNTIL I found a workaround. Here's how I got mine to work. I installed this SG USB Mass Storage Enabler (I'm using the app, not the widget). Then I installed another App called Multi Mount SD-Card Lite (must created a widget on this one). Step 1. Plug USB. Step 2. Open SG USB Mass... and press "Mass Storage Mode". Press OK to clear the Error and Press "Mass Storage Mode" again. Step 3. Press the Multi Mount SD...widget to mount the extSD Card. Unplug USB and plug it back in. I'm able to see, read, write, execute, etc. my extSD on my PC.

"An error occured while identifying the SD Card..." I have a 32 gB SD card installed. The tablet is running Android 4.4.2 and it is rooted; I had SU grant full access to the App. Guess it just isn't compatible with my tablet :( I so wanted this App to work. Being stuck with MTP is horrible: I can't use TeraCopy or any of my usual file sync tools, MTP is slow as molasses on big video files, and unstable as well. I hope the developer can extend this app to more models of tablets and phones!
