Estas são as instruções para poderes utilizar o teu iPhone como uma PenDrive USB sem teres de instalar qualquer software no teu computador.

Passo Um
Abre a aplicação Cydia a partir da Springboard do teu iPhone.

Como utilizar o teu iPhone como uma PenDrive USB

Passo Dois
Carrega em Manage , em baixo, na barra de separadores.

Passo Três
Carrega no botão grande Sources.

Passo Quatro
Carrega em Edit no canto superior direito da lista de fontes.

Passo Cinco
Carrega no botão Add que aparece no canto superior esquerdo.

Passo Seis
Escreve http://apt.dmytro.me no campo Cydia/APT URL e depois carrega no botão Add Source.

Passo Sete
O Cydia vai actualizar as tuas fontes. Carrega depois no botão grande Return to Cydia quando terminar.

Passo Oito
Carrega no botão Done no canto superior direito.

Passo Nove
Carrega em apt.dmytro.me para selecionar a fonte que adicionamos.

Passo Dez
Procura e carrega no pacote USB Drive que está na lista de pacotes.

Passo Onze
Carrega no botão Install que está no canto superior direito.

Passo Doze
Carrega no botão Confirm no canto superior direito.

Passo Treze
O Cydia vai então instalar o pacote. Quando terminar, carrega no botão grande Return to Cydia.

Passo Catorze
Carrega no botão Home (aquele que serve para sair das aplicações) para regressares à Springboard e depois carrega em USB Drive na lista de aplicações para abrires a aplicação.

Passo Quinze
Primeiro, temos de criar um Disco Virtual no iPhone. Carrega no botão Create Disk... para continuar.

Insere um nome para o teu disco virtual e usa a barra para especificar quanto espaço queres reservar para alocar o disco virtual. Quando terminares carrega no botão Create no canto superior direito do ecrã.

Passo Dezasseis
Agora que criamos o disco para aceder, temos de especificar o modo USB. Tens três hipóteses:

Drive + iTunes:
In this mode USB Drive replaces Picture Transfer Protocol (PTP) interface with Mass Storage interface and lets you use the iPhone as a USB Drive. At the same time you can perform iTunes synchronization, developers can use XCode debugger ,etc. In this mode USB Mass Storage will not work on Windows with iTunes or Apple USB Drivers installed.

Default:
This is the iPhone default mode. USB Drive doesn't install daemon application nor modify any USB settings. Picture Transfer Protocol (PTP) is active as well as iTunes synchronization and tethering over USB.

Drive Only:
This mode is to resolve compatibility issues with Windows and iTunes. In this mode USB Drive changes the iPhone's USB product ID. This will prevent iTunes synchronization, but USB Mass Storage will work on Windows (and other operating systems). Switch to the Default or Drive + iTunes mode will restore iTunes sync.

Press to select the mode of your choice. We chose Drive + iTunes because we rarely need Windows compatibility.

A popup will appear asking you to reboot to apply the changes. Press the large Reboot button.

Step Seventeen
Once your iPhone reboots you will now be able to access the virtual disk you created using USB Drive.

***THANKS: This is one of the most useful iPhone utilities we have ever seen. A big thanks goes to dmp for creating this app!

Babu Francis - July 8, 2013 at 3:30am

It never works, windows doesn't detect the driver for usb drive..

asad - June 19, 2013 at 5:35pm

i did as you said,,, but drive didn't showed up on my windows PC nor it is being displayed in the app,,, i can't delete it but space is in use help plzz

I was a little worried using this app, seeing as it felt relatively old. I haven't read to many good comments about it either. It was unfortunate, but since I require a tethered boot, I was unable to properly operate the device. I didn't put to much effort in it to be honest, I don't have much space on my iPhone to begin with. I love the concept, it's a real quick relief. I was in a rut to play a movie, and this was perfect. I found I needed to reboot after deleting the volume. It gave me some worry after deleting it through the app (lol). Back to square one, luckily.

Why has there been such a problem with finding a solution to "USB not recognized". I'm still having issues after using drive only.

amin - March 18, 2013 at 5:15am

thanks a lot. very very useful

A - September 6, 2012 at 4:36am

Mine is iPhone 3g, and it worked prefectly. THANKS! Note Go to USB drive, and then choose 1) If use default, it will only show photos you have in the iphone 2) if you use device only it willonly open USB, then you can add/exchange PPT, PDF, word files between your PC and iphone. 3) drive +iTunes doesn't work for me in my case (iphone 3G #) either #1 or # 2 works (but not both at the same time). However, when ever you need eaither you can "Reboot" whichever you want. Hope it helps

Hi, I'm able to use the USB drive however when trying to find the file stored on virtual disk. I'm unable to locate it on my iPhone using iFile. Please help, let me know the correct path where the files get stored on iPhone

How do i remove a partiton created with this app? Thank you :)

jmazz - June 7, 2011 at 3:34pm

iPhone 3g iOS 4.2.1 USB Drive successfully creates the partion drive, but then thats it. The 1g of space that I allocated to it is used up, but the virtual drive is nowhere to be found on my computer (PC). Any ideas?

oliver - May 5, 2011 at 7:01am

Doesn't work on 3G with 4.2.1 When creating a virtual disk a message appears to check the free disk space every time. So no virtual disk can be created. Unfortunately!

oliver - May 5, 2011 at 7:06am

Found a solution: 1) connect to the iPhone via SSH 2) mkdir /private/var/Volumes/ 3) chown mobile:mobile /private/var/Volumes/ That's it. Creating virtual disks will work then.

oliver - May 5, 2011 at 7:36am

Hm, unfortunately only Default mode is working. Although I haven't connected the iPhone as USB drive to Linux host successful. Switching modes will end up in a loop (after asking for reboot). Seems there's a security or rights issue in the file system...

thanks bro you just saved me from restoring. i tryd this on my iphone 4 on ios 5.1.1 default and itunes+drive didnt work for me and i gave up before trying only drive

Does it work in IOS 4.2.1

HK - December 17, 2010 at 3:31am

Good app..but the transfer rate is very slow as we are using usb 1.x instead of high-speed 2.x. Any way to imporve this/????

Jeremy - October 6, 2010 at 12:25pm

i tried to create a second virtual disk... for some reason my phone rebooted in the middle of the process and when it came back on the second partition was created (i know because it takes up a large space on the iPhone) BUT inside of USB Drive app it does not appear. so now i cannot figure out how to delete this partition because it isnt even recognized within the USB app. help anyone?

Yannick - December 7, 2010 at 10:37pm

Hi Jeremy, I have a similar problem. I created a 1GB volume on my jailbroken iPhone 3G under ios 4.1 After I installed 4.2, I cannot see the 1GB volume anymore, but I am left with 1 less GB storage on the iPhone. Were you able to find a solution to your problem? It might help me solve mine. Does anybody have a clue how to get this 1GB back? Thanks, Yannick

concrdian - January 10, 2011 at 6:06pm

Since you'e already jailbroken, you can delete the volume files from the file system using SSH. The volume files are created at /private/var/Volumes/Volume1.img.

jacqui - August 11, 2010 at 11:49am

Thanks! this was so easy

whoever - July 23, 2010 at 5:14am

so -- if I get it right as somebody with wiondows (not my choice, but have to!) I have to decide wether I want itunes-sync OR usb-drive functionality...? Buuuuh! (beyond that: great, and why the hack is apple not doing it itself?)

Robert - July 16, 2010 at 11:37am

After installing app, if you decide to uninstall it, PTP will not get back to original state. In other words, you cannot transfer pictures to you computer like you used to.

How to use your SUB Drive in to a iPod

evanjd14 - May 21, 2010 at 10:23pm

Thank you for the screen shot of the sources uploaded. I added all of them and they work. P.S. When i delete a drive it sometimes does not give me the space back.

hermanator - May 22, 2010 at 6:48am

hi i know that problem: to get the empty space back you actually need to empty the bin + restart device + computer. apart from that: brilliant website this - one of the best. thanks

troll - April 11, 2010 at 3:12pm

hi, I got reboot loop while in USB Drive only mode. And my iTunes cannot recognize my phone, therefore I cannot restore it. What can I do to fix? Plz, I'm running with time, because the USB Charge wont work.

troll - April 11, 2010 at 5:19pm

finally figured it out. For those who got the same experience. Just get your phone into recovery mode (I did this on my 3GS 3.1.2) and get the correct version of custom jailbroken firmware. 1. run iTunes 2. Get your phone into recovery mode (NOT DFU mode) 2.a. connect your phone into the usb port (mine was in the state of loop rebooting) 2.b. press and hold both power button on the top and home button at bottom 2.c. in about 6 secs, the phone will turn off. Keep holding both button 2.d. when you see the apple logo, let go the power button on the top. But keep holding home button 2.e. eventually, iTunes will say you are in recovery mode, and your screen will have recovery icon. 3. Restore the firmware. You can refer to posts in the net on how to do this. note. in dfu mode (let go power button after 10 secs), iTunes will say you are in recovery mode too. But in fact, you are in DFU mode, and you wont be able to restore with error 1600. Hope this help.
