I've emailed the dev and asked the people on there but no response back. So what it is, is that I'm trying to upload my defult pic on there and it says "cannot crop. Do you have enough space on your sd card." I have a 8gb sd card so idk why. I tired taking a pic with that app but it still doesn't work. It makes a folder in the root of my sd card but still come out with same results. Thanks for your help.

Quick little question here. I was playing music on my tilt last night and it started bogging down and operating really slow. The music started to get all choppy and was jumping around all over the place. Eventually exclamation points appeared next to pretty much all my music. I went in to look at my storage card to see what was wrong with the files and now pretty much everything on my memory card is gone. The only thing left on my card is inbox mail attachments. All my pictures/videos/audio/files/cabs are all gone. But, its still reading that my 2 gig card has only .8 gig left.
Basically 2 questions
1) Do I just have to bite the bullet and reformat my card now?
and
2) My background was a picture I took that was stored on my card. The image is still there but I can't find the photo. It's a very sentimental picture that I'm trying to keep. How would I be able to keep it?
any suggestions? insight?
I'm really taking a shot in the dark here but if windows mobile is anything like windows, it will store a copy of your background image in a system folder and use that for displaying the background. If this is the case, then you should be able to find a copy of it somewhere in the windows folder.. have you poked around at all?
As for the issue with your memory card, are you able to read it on your computer via usb? Or if you have a card reader, can you read anything off of it from that?

This may be a dumb suggestion, but if all else fails (to save your photo), you can uncheck all your today plugins, and take a screenshot, so just your photo would show.
Probably not ideal, but it was just a thought
there are many card, usb flash, sd, etc. data recovery / rescue apps.
they will find and recover anything--reformatted, deleted, whatever.
get one as soon as possible. and save to your PC

These usually only work if it is a quick format, (quick format just deletes the table) - so not really "anything"

He didn't say anything about a format, quick or otherwise. These programs are designed to read the raw data so if they're a chance there's something left on there, it's worth trying.
I keep getting the "Storage Memory" message on my screen and don't know where/how to free it up. Can anyone tell how to do this?
Thanks.
TW,
No one has any idea how to fix this?
if you have a full storage card start removing some stuff that you have through activesync or removing programs that you have.
So, is this application space on the phone itself? are there temporary files that could be dumped, etc.?
Thanks,

I have no idea what you are talking about dude, what I meant is that you can manually remove files that maybe are on your sd card through activesync (exploring files in your card) and have some space available but if you want to clean temporary files. You can use Cleartemp
I hope that helps,
I have a 4 gig SD card in the phone, its not even close to full.
If you look at the picture I posted its referencing 128 meg so its storage somewhere else, where is it and why is it getting full?
Thanks,

Hi Tiger Woods...busy with you phone and not with golf (we hope to see you back soon)
The message you are getting is related to your main storage (phone) and it's has nothing to do with your sdcard.
I assume you have a 6.5 rom from what I see in your pictures. This cooked roms (not light versions) will get more storage since chefs include apps in their images and adding to that; if you install additional programs in your main storage (not on sd card) you'll get the message.
Use the app that I just sent you (if not already in your rom) and start to free some memory and also I will recommend you to start removing programs from main storage and installing them in your sdcard so you can free some memory from your phone.
I hope that helps,
Why the hell won't my phone save my songs from Spotify, my photos from Vignette, videos from the camcorder, and anything other data the apps create??
Where the hell is the option to save on SD card?
Simmah down.
The actual SD card is mapped as /sdcard-ext/ in the filesystem. The /sdcard/ mount point is the internal storage. Apps need to be written so you can choose the storage location, and this will only be a larger problem going forward because as internal storage space goes up, more and more manufacturers will be doing this.
The built-in camera app does ask if you want to use the real SD card when you put one in and load the program.

Yeah, see I use Vignette so that doesn't help... geez.
Guess I'll have to make sure the main camera app is at least on SD card storage. I don't remember if the video files are automatically saving to the SD card (I did notice the SD-ext difference and figured that was the external vs internal memory).

If they're not being stored to the external on the stock app, boot the phone without the SD card in the phone, launch the camera app, then shut the phone down. Pop the SD card back in, boot up and launch the camera app again. It should say as soon as you launch that a new SD card is found and ask if you want to use it.
Going forward, /sdcard-ext/ is going to be more common on more phones, so app developers need to start providing an option for where users want to store data files. I'd contact the Vignette developers (they're pretty responsive) and let them know that they need to add a feature to choose the storage location of saved pics because most likely all Motorola devices will be set up this way going forward, with other manufacturers following.
I have changed cards,formatted,etc.
The problem is when i try to use say pics on it my phone says 'not enough room,wope movies etc'The card is half emty &im trying to resd ,not add . Get messages saying 'add sd card' when i want to use the camera. This happens with 3 class 10 cards of 16-64 gig,of the best quality. One is brand new.
Ideas...please.
Checked to read storage amounts. Says cwm, 1.2 TB! What is ghost oing on ?
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda app-developers app
Thanks for the help. I can't use a lot of apps due to this,ie gallery. Camera etc.
It thinks there us 1.2TB taking up space. Took spp out, and replaced same thing.
Always being told to wipe movies, and music
Also told there is no SD card in most of the time. Put brand new C10 in.

Hello dear
I've got a 32gig Samsung class 10 card. Every time I turn on the phone, it takes about 5-10 min to scan for media files in the SD card. Is that normal? I cannot take some screenshot to prove it (Quickmeno doesn't take screen in the notification bar), but it takes a long time for me (my old DHD didn't take so much time, indeed didn't show even the message of the scan).
I've always had that too, with all my devices. Are these microSD card filled up with allot of data?
I think this is necessary to update changes in the Android OS. Like for example: update your mp3 songs list or picture gallery, check for apps on the microSD, ...
Maybe there is a setting to disable that?
I'm not bothered by it, I just let the phone idle for a moment. I have a Class 4 card, so it even takes longer for me xD
Edit: It could always be related to the microSD card. If so and you're running on Windows, just copy all the files to a folder as backup. Format the microSD card with default cluster size. And right after that go to properties of the card to scan for and fix filesystem errors and bad sectors. Copy your files back to the card and try again to see or it takes the same amount of time.
If you have very important data on that microSD card I recommend to also backup an image from it through a backup tool.

I have about 18 gig of data on the SD
I'll try to search for errors and bad sectors, then

The best is unmount the card on the phone, "erase SD card" and mount the card on the phone, guess thats how the phone format the card.
Do a backup first, I think that unmounting and mounting will delete your data, what is normal...
Some devices only accept cards formated by themselfs, cards formated in a computer don't work on them, not saying that is the case but, it will be better I think.
Same
Same here. It's really irritating. I was about to ask for solutions. I guess it's the phone's problem since my other phones like O2X don't experience that at all.
I just tested again with my Class 4 32GB microSD. It has about 12GB data on it. It takes only 1-2 minutes for me.
Looks like something is going wrong with your phones than?
Maybe you can try this app: Rescan Media Root, and disable scan on reboot.

Folders contained a file named .nomedia wil not be scanned. You can create this file manualy for every folder without media files...
But using StudioKUMA .nomedia Manager from Google play can make it more easy
Try an app named "Rescan Media"
