About SD card as USB drive -root-
Only for some devices. You have to know if
su
setprop persist.sys.usb.config mass_storage,adb
echo DEVICE-POINT > LUN-FILE
exit
or
su
setprop persist.sys.usb.config mtp,adb
echo "" > LUN-FILE
vold
exit
works for your device.
* requires root privileges
* does'nt require BusyBox
1. when installing the widget on the homescreen confirm superuser rights
2. widget trys to find the LUN-file and the USB-device node
3. configure LUN-file and device-node
4. press backbutton
5. widget should show the current mode (USB or MTP)
6. tapping the widget should change the current mode
7. connect with USB-cable and enjoy ( hopefully )
8. disconnect USB-cable
9. switch back to MTP (otherwise, some apps may not work)
As USB-drive only mounts the external SD-card. With MTP are internal and external memory available.
Before uninstall MTPUSBSwitcher remove the icon from the homescreen dragging the icon into the trash. This will restore your original settings.
If you got trouble read this thread. A lot to read but interesting.

I tried a bunch of different application and this was the only one that worked. I have an HTC M8 running Nougat (Lineage OS 14.1). I think the trick is you have to set selinux to permissive. The only thing is I wish this was an application instead of a widget. Kind of annoying to have to keep this on my homescreen.

Have not been able to connect any phone to my PC since switching to Windows 10. Countless hours spent trying to do what this app did in less than 10 seconds.

Just plug in your usb then click on the widget and you'll see your sd card as a new drive. Much faster than mtp.

CyanogenMod 12 unofficial (LG LS660 CM12 by Unjustified Dev) and wanted to mount my phone on my Raspberry Pi with OSMC and my version has no MTP support. Simple as ever to use. The second I activated the widget, I was showing videos on my phone on my TV and who needs Chromecast??? I'd love to buy you a Faygo..
