sry to hear that
as of now I dont have an idea
just to understand it better: did you transfer them while sd was in x1? if yes, via active sync\wmdc or disk drive mode?
in the former connect method data is converted, but even then it should not dissappear completely...
what i did is just cut and paste using resco explorer and windows file explorer and the weird thing is that it only happens with video files and it still happening ,its not a one time thing.
thank you for replying
i hoped this is a known issue..i guess it's not common or known problem

Does anyone know how to retrieve items accidentally deleted from a SD Card because of a hard reset? I had so many photos and I would like to see if I can get them back.
You'll hav to get a 3rd party application to do it and you're not promised to get them back. It scans the whole card and just takes forever.

a Hard reset would not delete files on your SD card. You must have had the photos saved to your phone memory.

I thought that it wouldn't erase them either. I have done hard resets before and my items were never erased before. I made sure everything I wanted to keep was on the memory card for this reason. But for some reason this time it erased everything. I guess this was one of those freak accidents. This is why I am asking for help.
I appreciate any help on this issue.
You did something wrong then because there's no logical way they could've erased that way. On the other side, you should have followed flashing procedures by removing the memory card and sim
Your so right, kareem9nba. I should have known better. Thank you for your help.
This is why every week, I copy all the contents of my SD card (where I keep everything) To my Desktop PC in a folder I call "SDBackup" I've working with Computer long enough to know, if you don't have a backup, you are asking for trouble.
People call this Murphy's Law.
I had an issue similar to this that scared the crap out of me.
I took my SD card out of my phone, powered off beforehand, and then loaded it into my speedy microSD adapter so I could copy lots of data from my computer to it. Upon inserting the card into my monitor's SD reader, Vista gave me to "You must format this card before it can be used" message.
It took 3 removals and reinsertions to get my PC and my Tilt to see the files again. I promptly backed up my files and did a full format on my storage card. Everything's been fine since.
Im a little more paranoid and do it at least once every couple of days, just because Im on the forum alot and frequently see horror stories where people end up losing alot of their stuff.
Active File Recovery 7.3 Build 101
Very Interesting Question that made me perform a new expirement
to answer your question directly best thing is to use a 3rd party application called Active File Recovery 7.3 Build 101 it will recover data even after format or delete by mistake.
but in your case its not necessary - hard reset only delete internal storge (sd card data is intact)
i did an expirement ( i stored photos and documents in my phone) and i performed a hard reset... i used Active File Recovery 7.3 Build 101 and guess what i managed to retrieve the TOC of my INTERNAL STOREAGE but not the files... but i guess if i looked for a more powerful application i could retrieve the files themselves
i flashed new rom and used Active File Recovery 7.3 Build 101 (resulting 0 files or 0 TOC to retrieve)
conclusion of my experiment that may not relate 100% with your question is if you hard rest (some of your data can be retireved) if you flash new rom or reflash a rom (0 data can be accessed) using commercial softwares
best luck and look for our experts comments

Hi, it seems like i've messed up my phone. It began when the phone hung it self so i just powered it off and then on again. And now all my progs/apps that I've installed to the memorycard stopped working and i also got an error message right after the boot up. But I think I've located the error but I don't know how to fix it. When I looked in the file explorer there is a folder called memorycard2 which my memorycard now is linked to and the phone is reading from it. Although all my progs/apps is linked to memorycard not memorycard2.
But there is a folder called memorycard too but it's all empty, any sugestion how to fix this problem, I hope hard reset wont be the answare to solve it
thx in adv.
Delete that folder?
Copy all of the card contents to a PC. Format the card and copy them back.
Easy fix...
Rename \Storage Card to anything else. Soft reset. Delete the folder you renamed (not storage card as it is now fixed).
WHen this happened to me i think i took all memory cards out - disconnected from the PC and deleted the Storage Card folder - put my memory card back in and it re-created a "storage card" folder instead of Storage Card 2
Thanks for all the replies guys. I think everyones solution will work although I went with buzz83 sugestion since it seemd sloppiest. My phone runs so much faster now and it also enabled the hardware acceleration for SPB MS3, the carusell is spinning like a chamber on a rustless revolver!
Oh yeah, it did solve my problem!

It's because you changed registry values to have things like internet cache/history etc stored on your storage card.
Dear guys,
I have a very strange problem with my tab. The internal memory seems to be “read only” after restart.
Ai have this problem after I stopped a transfer between my laptop and the tab (a movie). The problem is that o can’t format internal memory, to fix any fat leaks. I try to wipe all, flash with every know firmware from h__p://w w w.samfirmware.com/WEBPROTECT-p1000.htm, format internal memory from CWM. Every format command works (finish format ok),
I can used the space on tab (even accessing from laptop) but when I restart my tablet I have the old content.
My question is what the f__k is happened and who to fix it.
Many thanks in advance!
Any one??!?!?!
Any one??!?!?!
I can't help with the solution but fwiw I have exactly the same problem. Samsung's only suggestion was to send it in for repair but I'm hesitant to do that because all my data is still on the device. I've tried hard resetting it but everything comes back as soon as I reboot. I can remove or install application but they reset as soon as I reboot the Tab. I cannot make any kind of permanent changes to it.
It's very frustrating to say the least. Anyone have any suggestions for what would cause this? Mine is still a stock device with only a few market applications.
I also have some issues with internal "SDCARD" and that is that i cannot move anything onto it using andy SGT filemanagement system or the very bad KIES software. At the moment my external SD is full but the internal SD has like 14GB free and i cannot balance the storage!?!
If I move programs to SD will it me moved to internal or external SD and can I choose the setting?
The only way I managemd to move stuff into internal SD is to download files like films and music via DLNA over WiFi - those files are saved correctly were I want it...
any advise would be appreciated...
So this means that i can't repair my tablet?
I can't find any solution for this problem. and i believe that we are not the only one with this problem.
I send it to service... they replaced main board...
but canceled my warranty reason: unauthorized software intervention - root access
So... watch out for this. factory reset you tablet or mobile (if possible... in my case was not possible)
Thank you for your support.
I have the same
I have the same exact problem ,, anyone can help plz ??
Hi:
I´ve just discovered this forum. Hello...
Just the same problem here and Samsung doesn´t repair my device. Can you give me any help?
Regards
This is exactly the same problem I've encountered. Moments AFTER rooting the thing.
Which leads me to believe any and all warranty question is well out of the window.
Has anyone encountered a solution as yet?
I appreciate the posts above are a few months old so I'm hoping some sort of resolution has been found!
Same problem here too
Internal mem seems fine and you can delete things, but after reboot nothing is remembered.
Gave it to service (non samsung/carrier), They said that the p1000 is known for having bad internal memory problems.
They partitioned my 8GB external sd card and installed a Chinese MIUI rom 4.0.4 that is supposed to support installation and running from external SD mem.
The problem is they didn't remove the internal memory - so all old apps still exist there and can' t be removed (it probably mounts the internal mem and thinks it can write to it - but in practice nothing is written). So when i go to market and try to DL an app it says no memory left on device because it tries to put it on the internal mem and not the external.
Also, after reboot all the account setup wizard screen settings are forgotten and you need to redefine everything again.
I saw a thread on XDA that explains you need to remove the internal SD mem physically (and explains how to do it) but i am a little afraid to do it...
Anyone else try this ?
Also strange you need to change the whole MB for a faulty memory, why can't the internal mem just be replaced ?

Hi,
I've got some problems with my note...
I made a backup over kies before installing ics. After installing ics i recover just the contacts and calendar data over kies. All settings and apps i decided to konfigurate and instal manually. I've got between 50 and 60 apps on the note. It lags more then on GB.
A day later i bought a original 64 gb microsd class 10 from sandisk. Then i put over 30gb of music videos and photos on the sdcard.
1 week later in my gallery appeared some strange black broken files. No idea what that is.. This broken files seems to be a copy of a image but without data (0kb)
In the detail view is nothing to find out... So i deleted them all manually. After restart they appeared back. So i deleted them again and cleared the gallery cache and the data from gallery settings...
Nothing helped.. The same problem i've got with videos and music files. Ive tried all advices and tips like format the sdcard and so on.. On windows all the files on the sd card are completely normal!
I have no idea what to do with this problem... Please, i need your help
Sorry for my bad english..
I have exactly the same problem on the GS2 since upgrading to ICS. I've been trying for months to find a resolution, but you're the first person I've even encountered with the same problem. Wish I could help you, and myself for that matter!
I hope this helps though. Why dont you try SD maid to clear up junk off your sd card.

Hi guys
I plugged my note into my pc using usb cable to transfer games I had downloaded. After unplugging I discovered that all video files and all picture files have disappeared from both the internal sd and my sd card. This is really confusing. I've no idea how this has happened and what I can do to restore it all. This is really upsetting as we had a new baby recently and all my photos of her and my other kids have disappeared. :crying:
Any advice will be gratefully received.
Many thanks in advance.

Just reboot your device and check again
Hi
Tried reboot. Still nothing. File manager shows folders as being there, but contents are missing.

If they are really deleted try something like "DiskDigger" and check if it finds your pictures.
I used it on the JB leak which doesn't show all files and folders when connected to the PC. I didn't think of this and deleted an "old and empty" folder. I lost about 200 pictures of my baby.
With this tool I got back all of them.
That sounds fantastic, I'll give it a go. Many thanks!
