I don't mean the file transfer mode, I mean to share the contents of a single folder and it to show up as an usb stick. For example, to only share what's in the music folder and let a mp3 player read what's in there.

Wow, that was fast. What did you search for? And where?

The hardest part was for me was that, I've been trying search terms on duck duck go the whole bus trip to home and I only got dozens of pages about how to connect the phone to a PC and set the file transfer mode.

using android as usb drive

phone as usb stick

Gonna get hate for this but...

The one thing I think LLMs are actually super good at is helping you find the right terms for things that you don't know how to find.

LLMs don't have no utility. They just aren't good for everything. This is a reasonable use for them. Actually giving accurate information, not so much. Definitely not doing that require intelligence or creativity either. They're text prediction algorithms. Using it to find the right text is what it should be good at.

I've not really used a wide variety of LLMs, but I've found that the one that comes up when you use Brave search is actually pretty good at giving solutions to tech support problems. It's not perfect, but if you give it an error code it sort of collates all the solutions it finds into a list and gives sources for each one, and I'd say probably 8/10 times it's at least in the right general area. If nothing else, it's saving me a ton of wasted time searching through forums and finding those threads where someone has the exact problem you're looking for and then just posts "nm I fixed it" without explaining what they did.

no hate! you actually found a use for them! :o

I think the main keyword here is "emulate" if you would have added it to your search terms, the git repo would show up.

The technical term used to be “mass storage device” mode. I’d hope most search engines would give you emulate results when you use “use as” or “act like”, but it’s hard to tell these days. Google would have 5-10 years ago anyway.
