Hey, I was wondering if anyone else have experienced this problem or know how to solve it. So I've been putting my mp4 movie files in sdcard/videos/random on my phone but then the movies would get "deleted" because there would be no trace of it. When and why it gets deleted I have no idea because after putting the files there, I check that it is actually present with ASTRO file manager and through Meridian. The next time I come back to try to watch it, all my movies are gone. Any ideas/suggestions? Its getting annoying because it has happened several times and it takes a butt long time to upload my videos.

Hi all,
The last two days I've been experiencing a really odd problem with my TD2.
Whenever I use the album to watch the pictures I've taken, I can only watch for a few seconds before the SD card becomes unavailable.
If I pop the card out and back in, its available in file explorer again.
This does not happen when I play music or do other things of the SD card.
I would really like to keep storing my pictures on my SD card, so does anyone have any suggestions to things I might try to fix this problem?
Cannot delete
I've got the same problem
Any help would be appreciated ...
Hey
I've a very very strange Problem with my phone. It happend twice since today morning. I downloaded a song from simplymp3 and listen to it a few times. After a few hours I wanted to hear them again, but suddenly the player doesn't support the File Format. I've looked up in the Root Explorer and it says me that the File Size is 0.00B, i have no idea why!!
First I thought the Problem is just related to songs which I've downloaded from simplemp3, but I also found a few songs from a complete Album which have the Size 0.00B. Does anyone of you have the same problem or know what the hell that is?
I've never seen something befor.

I posted this thread as to share my experience with the phone and to advise people to backup your files regularly or on a weekly basis.
It all started when I was in an event "Run or Dye". I took my HTC One with me mounted on a retractable pole and adapter, took a bunch of nice photos and recorded videos of the event up until the last recording from my phone went dead. After the event I was still able reviewed my photos and videos but one the video was corrupted (as it did not finish recording the time the battery went dead).
A few days later, I tried reconnect my HTC One on my computer to see if I can salvage a copy of the corrupted video using a video editor, no go.) I was also copying the rest of the images but I wasn't able to do so (copied the folder but empty files), I tried rebooting/restarting my phone and the next thing I know, I opened up my gallery, and my photos were gone (everything including videos/folders/songs) and it wiped everything my phone's storage (32Gb) memory.
From a 8Gb free storage left of music/photos/files it went to 23Gb free. My apps are still installed though. "Strange" I really don't know what happened.
No backups there, that's the worst part, I could've turned on my Dropbox auto-upload, I could've backup my files.. Well it's all too late for that. (Lesson learned!)
Has anyone experience this situation too?

Hi, did you try to search this file with any file manager?
Do you consider make a wipe data?
yes, i have searched the web and some methods seem to have worked for other phones
however, i can't find this issue address on the S5
i already tried dropping a .nomedia file in the folder where i have pdf files, and even moving them to phone memory
this indexservice keeps running and draining battery for days
even went as far as trying to root with towelroot since it doesnt void warranty like other methods but my updated phone is not supported (was trying to disable the process)
some posts for note 3 mentioned a way to uncheck files that u don't want indexed but i can't find this on the S5
also tried taking out the sd card...indexservice still persistent
has anyone found a way, without rooting and voiding warranty which i need, to get rid of this indexservice battery drain that doesn't go away?
I had the same issue a while back. It started after I copied a bunch of Movie files to SD card. First I thought it was the large media file size, but it turned out to be the long file name. Once I shortened the file names the Indexing Service stopped draining the battery.
I had a problem with it too, apparently the exif info on some of the files I had on my sd card didn't make the indexing service happy. This also meant a lot of my pictures weren't showing up in the gallery app, though they showed up in others like quickpic. I initially just moved off all my pictures and moved a few at a time back until I found the offender, and I noticed then that quickpic had an exif fix option - and when I used this, that picture was no longer an issue.
I ended up finding an exif fixup app that was made for a different issue but still let me fix up everything in a batch and everything has been fine since then.
i don't know how u figured it out or why it matters on a modern top of the line phone but the shortened file names for pdf files and movies seemed to have worked...index service ran for the night while on charger and then no longer appeared to drain the battery...thanks a lot for the tip!...i'm gonna hold off on trying to figure out what exif info is unless the problem comes back
so it looks like it didn't work after all...indexservice is back and drains the battery like crazy...renamed the files and it didn't help...it went away for a couple days but came back...even stopping the service doesn't work as it comes back on it's on shortly later...clearing the cache and app data doesn't work either....so helpless with massive battery drain, sad story...how isn't anyone else getting this problem don't people use pdf files on their phones?...any other solutions? i don't know what this dude is talking about with the exif fix for images thing or how to do that but that can't possibly be causing the problem right?
just to help anyone else out...since the problem wasn't going away i looked back into rooting...since my phone had the latest update, towelroot wouldn't work....i used the following guide and video to get towelroot to root the phone without tripping knox and the warranty (in the final step of the video don't select disable knox in supersu to play it safe)...then i used titanium backup to freeze the indexservice and problem finally solved.....samsung phone info from the playstore lets u see if the knox warranty is void...if it says 0x0 you're good
