In the early 90's, I was out with a friend one day while he was doing inspections and I got paged from work. Since this was well before cell phones were popular, I asked the homeowner where we were if I could borrow his phone.
His daughter handed me a phone with the rotary dial built into the handset and said to her father, "I think you should show him how to use it."
I smiled and replied, "This is what I grew up using."
Still makes me smile thinking about it.

One of the best fiction authors I ever read has died. Currently, there are no authors ready to fill her shoes. She is, and will be, missed.
I started reading her works when I was in college, way back in the 1960s. She was brilliant, although one of the most difficult authors I had ever read at the time. As a reader, she taught me much about English, sentences and vocabulary. Readers cannot just speed through her works, especially her novels — she hides too much in plain sight.
I wish that I had met her. I will miss her. Rest in peace, Ms. Le Guin.

I read her book "The Dispossessed" when I was a college student. Right away upon reading the first sentence, it was like a movie just started in my head...her descriptions were soo vivid. And I just could not put it down.

Has anyone else noticed that windows 10 doesnt connect to a phone with an SD card? In my case its a Samsung.
On win7 its OK. Anyone else seen this?
|

No, and the phone doesnt do a 'USB connect' either.

Nope,
Since I remember that you have USB driver development experience... I would suggest spending a few minutes debugging with Process Monitor[^] and possibly USBlyzer[^] to inspect the PNP and IRP/URB requests.

Could be, it is a Galaxy, about as crap as you get.

Older model? The Galaxy S8/S8+ is probably the best phone out there today.

The SD card in my windows phone becomes available as a drive in Win10 explorer...makes it easy to move pictures and music around.

Haven't you learnt by now that these f***-ups are personal? Your computer is out to get you...
NO problem with my Moto G4+ - though I have to enable the connection for data transfer (on the phone) before Windows will see it, but then it just appears in Explorer like any other USB drive.
|

|
|
Not with my Galaxy. Did have it so that if I forgot, and renamed a directory on the Galaxy through Windows explorer, it would lock up Explorer for a minute or more. But it always recognized it at plug-in.

|

I have no problem with it. Keep in mind that the phone needs to get past the unlock screen for the file system to be exposed to USB. Besides that, no other problems for me.

Have you turned it off and back on again?
|
|
|
|
|
Yeah, I even opened and closed the front door. Well, you know what computers are like!

While comparing my changes with the server source code, just saw with my two eyes this great piece of code which checks if an nullable int is null or not :
private bool IsHasValue(int? a)
{
if (a== null)
{
return false;
}
return true;
}
The code is written by very senior developer on my team with huge years of experience in c#
