USB Drive version 1.1

This was a long road, but finally we have reached the release stage.  A current version is marked as 1.1 and it has the following changes since last beta:
  • No date restriction, this makes too much hassle
  • ReadOnly option now works propely
  • Minor bug fixes and tweaks

I have a big TODO list for this project, so stay tuned :)

Just saw it appear on Cydia, thanks for the update! Haven't got my phone cable with me (left it at work on Friday), so I can't really test it yet. Does this update allow more than one drive at a time now, or is that feature still to come?

Anonymous said...

Great app. Updated to 1.1, will not work on 2.2.1?

Anonymous said...

no date restriction? Yay!

I just downloaded the 1.1 version on my iphone 3.0

I can't change the settings : when I want to change the parameter "drive only" the iphone reboot but it remains on "drive only".

My iphone isn't seen by the itunes, i don't know what i must make...

Jack said...

Thanks man, Good Job!! Awesome!!

Now i can recharge my iphone in my car whitout any specifyc cable, just plug usb cable in my sound.

Now, what is the folder that the files are saved?

The previous version didn't work on the new firmware 3.1.3 (the phone boots into safe mode, no way to quit this mode, I had to restore my iPhone), so I would like to know if the new version 1.1 of USB drive works on firmware 3.1.3 ?

The only one drive mounted at a time bug is still present. 3.1.3 Mac OS X 10.6.2

Can you improve it so files are transfered faster between the iPhone and the PC?

Anonymous said...

Hi! Congratulation for you wonderful job, now i can use my ipod touch with the usb port on my car!(and also recharge it, that wasn't possible before!)
i'm hopefully waiting for an upgrade that permits the access to files from programs such as ifile or music player (obviously not the original one). In this way i should't double the song on the usbdrive partition and itunes, but i could use my ipod touch as a traditional mp3 player with normal usb access!
Thank you!

Anonymous said...

Hi,

Wonderful job, but BT doesn't work when you are in Drive Only.
Are you aware ?
Is it normal ?

Thanks a lot 4 your work.

Anonymous said...

Hey I love your software. It's great! But I noticed a very slow transfer rate. It is like 1-2mbps which is really slow for me because I made a 20gb partition and try to install an OS there but it takes 3 times the normal installation.

Is it normal? 1-2mbps? Is there any way to speed it up like a normal 2.0 usb?

I made a 10g partition and deleted it after i figured out that it was too much. When I plug into itunes, it shows i have 7gig in other, only 3gig free. Any suggestions on how i can get my space back?

Percy said...

I relly hope it can be a fine USB drive even my PC installed itune. Thanks for your hard working in advance.

Alkida305 said...

To all the people that want faster transfer:

the reason it is almost impossible to acheive usb 2.0 speed is because this drive uses the photo drive originally for the unjailbroken ipod/iphone. The speed of that was determined not by him, but by the makers of the main firmware. Ex: 3.1.1 , 3.0 , ext.

Please stop complaining about this. This would be really hard to fix, as it takes much thought. Let the creator of this app to figure out what he wants to do with this problem.
I have no doubt that this is on his list.

Please include access to files in virtual drive in the next update. I want to be able to download things on my iPod and plug it into USB port of my DVD player and view all downloaded stuff.

Unknown said...

Hi

Many thanks for this, extremely useful!

I can confirm what one poster here has said - Bluetooth does not work when set to 'Drive Only' on my iPhone 3GS running 3.1.2. Will this be fixed in a new version?

I would also be grateful for any ability to access the partition from the device itself... perhaps allowing the user to select music from the iTunes library to copy to the partition without having to connect to a PC/Mac to change the files each time.

@oger - Use iPhoneBrowser on your computer, or iFile on the device and go to:

/var/Volumes

This is where the disk images are stored.

Also I have found that I can copy the img file to my pc and add/remove files to it using WinImage, then copy it back. Saves some hassle switching modes to access the disk in Windows.

Anonymous said...

Can i browse the filesystem of the USB drive via ifile? Or is it just an .img file and that's it?

Now a bit later at home it works.
I *guess* the problem is the ad (which I did not even see at work earlier, it was probably blocked by our Firewall). Can this cause the application to show and vanish directly after that?

Hi Anonymous

The issue you describe was not caused by USB drive.

There was a fault with Rock Your Phone which bricked hundreds of user's phones with the exact same symptoms as you describe.

Here is more information:

http://modmyi.com/forums/rock-your-phone-support/709807-recent-rock-issue-may-2010-a.html

Also see "Recent Rock Issue" in the Rock App itself where they admit responsibility and apologise.

for who got the message "Failure There was an error creating new virtual disk."
do the following steps to resolve the issue
1- using iFile goto var direcotry 2- create new direcotry (Volumes)
3- set owner as root
4- set group as mobile
5- set the access permission for User and Group Read,Write,Execute
Work Read,Execute
go back to USB drive and you should be able to create drives now

thank you for the great job dmytro
I have an issue.
after creating the Volumes direcotry manualy and create image drive form with the application I clicked "Drive only" then it asks me to rebot after that the indecator keeps circling and device did not reboot

PS ( I think this related to the bug where the app initially was unable to create the Volumes directory and set the proper permission)

Hi,
Excellent job this is an awesome application, one more step closer to making the iPhone a portable laptop! Works great on 3GS running iOS4. Has really come in handy!

Just a suggestion which you are already probably working on and has been mentioned, is the ability to leave it in Drive + iTunes for Windows rather than resetting the phone to change between sync and HDD usage. Also as mentioned, the ability to access the files from the iPhone itself.

An awesome app! Great Job

I installed it on my iPhone with JB IOS 4.01 and when I press the app it just opens a splash screen and then goes back to the Springboard. Can anyone tell me how they got it to work on the IOS 4.x?

Please disregard my last post. I got it to work. There was a conflict with the Backgrounder app.

technosinner said...

So... is there or is there not a way to access the img file created as volume from WITHIN the iPhone? The app works fantastic, but without being able to access the content from the phone, it's of little use to me. Thanks

I believe the volumes are stored in /var/Volumes but I could be wrong

Thanks!! This is a great App. However, can the image be access within the iPhone. This is also one important function. Many thanks~

Anonymous said...

People, LISTEN UP!!!!!

******** ************ **************

!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is a USB DRIVE APP!
For all you people complaining about not accessing the files. THAT IS NOT THE POINT OF THE APP.
Right now you can use it as a USB DRIVE. Can you view the files on you normal USB drive? No. You can't. And you cant on this either. The point is that you are already carrying around a 16 or 32 gb USB drive, so here is an app that allows you to do what crApple won't: use it.

So stop complaining. This is the only app that allows to transfer files via USB cable without needing to have something already installed on the computer or needing the computer to have wifi connection. Both situations which typically preempt the need for a thumb drive in the first place.

So stop whining. This app is awesome and sorely needed.

Also, what's up with 4.1 compatibility??

iPod Touch Gen 2, O/S 3.1.3 (JailBreak via snowbreeze + quickfreedom) :

After install via Cydia, click the Home button, flick over to the second page and tap the USB Drive icon to configure.

After the reboot, connecting to my W98SE machine allowed it to see this beastie for the first time.

What I really hope is that I can finally charge this thing without fetching my much-hated Vista laptop.

Feature Request

If there is any possibility to develop a method of browsing the disk image with an on-board application like iFile that can open files in other applications (e.g., Docs2Go or QuickOffice), that would be a wonderful feature.

Joe said...

Maybe a wiki would be good to help people put together documentation for you. Like I don't understand Default mode - when I turn on Default mode on my iPhone4 with 4.1 firmware I don't see a usb drive when I plug my phone into my computer. iTunes and iPhone still works. Presumably this is by design. But it's hard to tell from the documentation.

1) I fully agree this app is great.
2) I'm not complaining; it's called asking a question.
3) You surely have a slight mental disabilty. OF COURSE YOU CAN ACCESS FILES FROM A USB DRIVE! What the hell would be the point of a USB drive? Plug that oddly shaped hole on the side of your computer? That being said, I was asking for the aforementioned feature as a nice addition, something that would be nice, as I can get a 32 Gb USB drive for 5$ at Fry's if I really need it. And I don't need an USB cable with it... see where I'm going? Probably not.

To Dmytro: Thanks for a very nicely built app. The feature would be nice if at all plausible.

If you can make the img file writeable via the iphone os or mountable at least via an external app (windows I would prefer) it would be awesome.

Unknown said...

Hey anonymous!

Unfortunately that isn't a problem with USB Drive but infact a long standing bug with MobileSubstrate. A conflict with MS and something else you have installed has made your device "unbootable". You would only find this out when you have to reboot, as USB Drive has made you do.

The only fix for you now is to restore your phone in DFU mode. Instructions for this are available all over the web. Prevention is either upgrading to 4.2.1, identifying the rouge conflict or not using the latest version of MS (version trick).

@Jack321
you can go to var/volumes and delete the image file and it will be removed
to prevent it from leaving a volume on your ipod/iphone you should wait a few minutes after deleting before closing/respringing/rebooting

I swear, some people really feel overly entitled for something they got for free. If he never revises the app, that's his prerogative.

For those that keep asking how to delete a volume they made: Notice the EDIT button in the upper right corner of the app? Try clicking on it!

Anyway, this a great app for what it does. Too bad you can't read the volume while on the iPhone, but you wouldn't be able to do that with just a USB drive either. BTW, I'm using an iPhone 4 on 4.0.1. On my MBP I had to use Drive + iTunes for it to work. On a PC, Drive Only was required. I just make sure to put it back to default when I'm not using it so my iPhone is available for syncing should something go wrong.

Hello, I have iPhone 3GS, ver.4.3.1
This app seems to run fine and everything (I used the "Default" method), and I am running Windows 7 OS. However, once it finishes, I am not prompted to reboot nor do I see any drives in explorer.
I tried repartitioning, rebooting OS and iPhone, nothing happens.

As I said, the app runs and does its thing seamlessly, just no results and no observable results, other than it uses up space (which I can't access in windows...:(

anyone know another usb app that works???

Just to add to previous comments, having the same problem:

When changing modes out of default (i.e., to Drive Only or Drive + iTunes), all the app does is put a loader wheel in the top left corner. No reboot.

Rebooting manually doesn't work either.

This is with iOS 4.2.1 and USB Drive 1.1

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Worked great on iPod 4G, ios 4.3.3. iPod-USB drive indeed showed up on my computer when using "drive only", such a handy application! Unfortunately, bluetooth wouldn't work anymore, even in "default" mode, and I need it for my speakers. So I had to uninstall it :'(
(after the uninstall, bluetooth was back)

Great work anyway.

Hi,

I created a 2GB volume on my jailbroken iPhone 4G running iOS4.1
all was fine...

After I installed iOS5 I could not see the 2GB volume anymore.
I am left with 2 less GB of memory on the iPhone now.

I don't find any file in the folder /var/volumes

How can I restore the 2gb of menory ?

Thanks for your help,

Zyter

DONT INSTALL THIS APP, U WILL NEVER GET BACK THE CREATED PARTITION AGAIN. MY 16GB IPHONE IS NOW AS GOOD AS 10GB AFTER I CREATED THE 6GB. IT WONT RESTORE BACK THE 6GB EVEN AFTER UNINSTALLING THE APP.

I removed form Cidya in Manage/Sources/apt.dmytro.me/USB drive, and recoverd the created partition

Hope that works. Good Luck!

Is this application compatible with iOS 6.1?

Unknown said...

Running this on 6.1.3 no problems except it doesn't work on non-computers, specifically my DVD player. It seems the iPhone is trying to draw power from the DVD player which cannot provide power causing the iPhone to vibrate continuously showing the charging/no charging symbols. If possible can that be disabled so it just runs off the battery?

What jailbreak do you use for 6.1.3?

Hi,
I'm using an older device (iPod touch 3G) and I can't update to iOs 7. Could you include the older version of the app in the cydia package? i.e..for iOS 4
