I updated to Liquid Thunderbread today. I cannot connect to my mobile network, which I think is a radio issue. I'm kinda sure how to fix it, but ANY input would be appreciated it. I cannot figure out how to connect my phone to PC through USB. It's connected via the cable, but I cannot figure out how to mount it. HELP PLEASE.

On AOSP ROMS you will get two notifications when you plug into USB. One is that it is in debugging mode, which is fine. The other one tells you you have the option to turn on USB storage mode. Click that one and turn on USB storage. Let windows decide what the hell is going on...and boom Windows will mount the SD card as a drive.

Why does it not do this automatically?

When you mount to Windows, the SD card is unmounted from your phone. Apps on the SD card will not work, etc.
