I was wondering if there was some way to mount both internal and external sd card via Usb cable. I currently use Sgs3 ums app but it mounts only the external sd card. I don't really like the mtp as whenever i try to transfer videos from pc, it asks me most of the time that its not compatible nd if id want to convrt nd transfer.. Which i find pretty annoying. :-\

Just be glad you're not on a Mac. I can't mount anything. I have to use Airdroid and Dropbox, or take my memory card out of the phone, put it in a card reader and mount it that way.
Never used Mac!Even with windows i can only mount the external sd card that too by configuring a third party app SGS3 UMS !
So its not possible to mount both of them? W/o MTP?

This might work
Yes, the SGS3 Easy UMS app work, stock ROM+root+BusyBox, only microSD card will be mounted as USB Storage.
Ok - so that method from the link will only work for the External microSD - the internal storage will be accessible by MTP ?
This is a SGS3 question for Sprint users using TWRP 2.3.3.0
Does anyone know how to do a mount on internal storage (/sd-card) using TWRP? If I go to MOUNT under TWRP and select Internal Storage, and click USB Mass Storage, it still keeps mounting /ext-sdcard which is the micro SD card.
I am using Samsung Galaxy S3 QCom ToolKit v2.3 Drivers as all suggest.
USBview says its SAMSUNG HD204UI USB Device version 6.1.7601.17577 Mass Storage drivers. (if that helps :fingers-crossed
I was having this exact same issue, but I didn't have a SD card present. It never mounted the internal SD and default settings mounted a unusable CD drive and external storage (probably a place holder for the external SD card).
Are there any further requirements to achieve this?
I also had sideloading issues with both CWM and TWRP, neither worked to push to the internal SD

Works for me on MY Daily Driver: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2246081
Which has a initd SD swap.
ON Mounts the ExtSD as a drive (in osx).
OFF lets AFT do its thing.
I don't suppose you have a solution for mounting the internal storage under Mass Storage mode, do you? I've got a card reader for the Micro SD if I just really need it, but MTP really sucks when I'm relegated to using it for internal. Thanks!

I use the internal for nothing! It is usless. That IS my solution.
Hello,
I have been unable to move my apps to the SD card. In app manager there is an option to do so, but I am unable to select it. Do I have to format my SD card as internal storage to do so ?
Thanks in advance.

also note once you change your externalsd to adoptable storage the it wont show up on your pc when you connect your phone to pc via usb
also note while you are converting to adoptable or back to external storage it does take sometime don't force reboot your device else your sd card would get corrupted

It's actually internal storage that won't show up on PC after, it weird that way, you'll see the card just fine. In twrp you still see both though when connecting.

Anyone know the best source for chapter & verse on the changes to storage management on Nougat?
I'm not yet using adoptable storage because I keep a large music library on SD and find it orders of magnitude faster to update it on PC. But now the option to move apps to SD card is gone in Nougat, I'm wondering if I should move to adoptable storage...
