4.0.3 USB Storage not working

[happenstance314]

I recently updated to the 4.0.3 firmware found here.
Easy 4.0.3 (UPDATE + ROOT = GAPPS)

I am currently still unable to perform USB actions with the tablet, like storage transfer, ADB interfacing etc.
Can anyone walk me through setting up my PC to interface with the tablet?

PC SPECS
Running Win7 Professional 64bit
Toshiba Satellite A305 Series
Intel CPU@ 2.0GHz
4.00GB RAM

well actually for me, I just plug in usb cable from my tablet to PC (also win7) and that is all, they are connected, no need to install anything or what and I can transfer files to tablet or sd. Does your PC shows something when you connect it to tablet?

Can anyone shed some light on how to enable USB to Pc connection issue after flashing to "easy 4.0.3" my tablet usb doesn't connect to PC (I've tried everything, reflashing back and forth with orginal filmware) nothing seems to work. Sdk program and 64 bit
drivers don't work either. Also, my SD-ext isn't working in the tablet I cannot move apps to it to save room. It shows in the tablet settings but I can't move apps the app2sd program doesn't see it. I'm all ears!!!! and I do know how to work on this tablet if I need to I can go into Linux and issue commands. This issue has me baffled.

Hello, i have the same problem, i got it after flash the last 4.0.3 firmware of 30/01 and superuser 3.0.7,
now nothing happens when i plug the tablet in the computer (already triend with windows 7 and gnu/linux), it just charge the battery so the hardware of the usb port seems to work. I have tried to connect a usb stick formatted in fat32 with no luck (it works in another model with preinstalled 3.2 firmware), i have tried to flash other firmwares (original 3.2 too) but nothing changes. The sdhc works cause i use it for flash the firmwares.

on linux when i plug the tablet i can't see it with usbview, the same thing happens in windows, doesn't appear to be connected.

I again will reflash the tablet again to see if the USB and sd card will work. I did a reflash last night only to loose the internal sd the message was couldn't find sd card or the sd-ext go figure!!!

sunfing on the forum i have found this possible solution:

* Turn the device OFF.
* Connect the USB-A end of the cable to a Windows computer
* Keep the Vol- key pressed
* Connect the mini-USB end of the cable to the tablet
* Hit reset (keep vol- pressed at all times until Windows tells you there's a device attached).

later when i'll come back at home i'll try.

Thanks! unfortunately I've tried that process and every other process I could think of! still no luck. I want to wipe the unit clean and restart again. Sometimes I see the partition flash briefly on the screen so I'm a----thinkin that it might be the rom and or the flash program. I will work on it again, again, and again..... I still like this "little beast".

using that procedure i got a "unrecognized device" on win7 and linux. I don't undestand why it's not possible to mount it on 2 different os with different kernel and drivers... i hope it's not an hardware problem. I want to come back to use my keyboard

this is what i see with dmesg on the terminal when i plug an usb keyboard:

USB AS PERIPHERAL MODE
USB AS HOST MODE
jz47xx: Enable usb phy
jz47xx: Disable usb phy
battery charg change!
