Hi, The media storage in Nexus 4 is not from a individual partition so it can't be un-mounted then set to mass storage mode. Instead of that Nexus 4 used fuse technology to re-use the /data partition. This means that the media storage actually is emulated by a folder in /data partition via fuse. Please also refer to the bug as below for MTP used to this kind of device to share files between device and PC. Bug 748350 - [B2G] export files on a device to the attached desktop through MTP
