I have a Zopo Z980+ running 4.2.2. I see this when I plug it in: Aug 14 08:19:44 ernst kernel: ugen6.2: <MediaTek> at usbus6 Aug 14 08:19:44 ernst kernel: umass0: <Mass Storage> on usbus6 Aug 14 08:19:44 ernst kernel: da0 at umass-sim0 bus 0 scbus8 target 0 lun 0 Aug 14 08:19:44 ernst kernel: da0: <Linux File-CD Gadget 0000> Removable Direct Access SCSI-2 device Aug 14 08:19:44 ernst kernel: da0: 40.000MB/s transfers Aug 14 08:19:44 ernst kernel: da0: Attempt to query device size failed: NOT READY, Medium not present Aug 14 08:19:44 ernst kernel: da0: quirks=0x2<NO_6_BYTE> Aug 14 08:19:44 ernst kernel: da1 at umass-sim0 bus 0 scbus8 target 0 lun 1 Aug 14 08:19:44 ernst kernel: da1: <Linux File-CD Gadget 0000> Removable Direct Access SCSI-2 device Aug 14 08:19:44 ernst kernel: da1: 40.000MB/s transfers Aug 14 08:19:44 ernst kernel: da1: Attempt to query device size failed: NOT READY, Medium not present Aug 14 08:19:44 ernst kernel: da1: quirks=0x2<NO_6_BYTE> This trace corresponds to the internal and external storage. After enabling USB storage on the phone I can mount the internal storage, but not the external storage. You have to be sure that USB debugging is turned off in the developer options. These may not even be visible on your device because Google hid them at around 4.2. I suspect that you just need some quirks to support the device. -- Gary Jennejohn
