android: detecting usb mass storage mode

0
votes

I have a very simple question. When a device like (galaxy tab) is connected to a computer in mass storage mode; both internal and external sd-card become unavailable. I just want to know if there is any way of determining if internal storage is not available because the device is in usb mass storage mode..

Thanks to all

You have to use a PendingIntent: stackoverflow.com/questions/4600896/android-detecting-usb - b_yng
are you wanting to check at a specific point in your application, or be notified when the status of the storage changes? its not clear. - pogo2065

For API version 8, I think the following will work.

Use a broadcast receiver that listens to ACTION_UMS_CONNECTED

For versions beyond 8, use android.os.storage.EventListener. Check this out.
