Why does my phone auto USB mount?


Recommended Posts

It seems for some reason my phone has started to 'auto mount' when I plug my USB charger into the PC.

Does anyone elses do the same?

Is there a hidden setting I need to clear?

It's rather annoying when I only want to charge my Streak....

Yep, I can confirm mine also does this.

It takes a few extra seconds to turn off usb storage when disconnecting. Not exactly the end of the world, is it? :)

It is when you're playing a game and when you plug it in the game stops as it's not installed anymore (stored on the SDcard) :)

Mine auto mounts too, but I'm happy with it.Why else would you plug it in, except for ADB or Fastboot. Charging via Usb is absurd.

I have no other way of charging it in work other than using my USB from my Laptop.

My point is, it didn't but it does now.... why? what's changed?

That's like saying, it's okay when I get in the car in the morning and all of the windows open automatically, it only takes a few seconds to close them, you'd soon get pi55ed off...

Do you have either Winamp or DoubleTwist installed on the phone. Both of these have an option to auto mount, which is I think ticked as default. This has annoyed me in the past until I worked out what was doing it!

I have the desk stand which is plugged into the power as well as the usb it would be rather annoying to have to disconnect the usb lead from the stand all the time! Also I often charge my phone from my laptop when on the go. Long as the option is there its all good though!

I might be wrong but USB debugging is on by Default on v1.1 would that be the Problem ?.

You are a star. :)

Winamp had the auto mount selected.

I've now uninstalled it, copied it onto CD and burnt it on the fire....ha! that's for messing with me...

Ah...I didn't think of that. I've only ever played Angry Birds (whilst on the loo) :)

I've also just unchecked the auto mount setting in Winamp which has done the trick. Useful option, though.
