Hello everyone,
I have been flash-crazy lately and I have run into a couple of problems I'd like your input on.
The last few that I have flashed are not recognizing any data on my external SD card. For example, my SD card (16Gb) is about half full with music and pictures, but when I go to the gallery, it's blank (no pics), and when I go to the music app, it doesn't show any of my tunes. None of my ringtones and notifications are available as choices either.
The ROM's that are giving me this problem are: MIUI and Axi0m (AOKP). These are the two ROMs that I would really like to check out. But with no SD Card contents...its a deal breaker.
But, ROMs like Team Gummy's ICS4Bionic load my SD card contents perfectly.
Any ideas what could be happening here?
Thanks in advance for any guidance you can offer.

Read the op..... the miui has mounting issues not sure about axiom rom.....

Thanks for the advice. But, believe it or not, I did read the OP where it says that the SD card does not mount to the PC, which is not, at all, my dilemma. The problem that I am having is that the ROM is not reading my SD card.

Sorry guess I miss read.. so it does mount in SD on PC or no?? Thinking maybe a bad SD happened when I had my charge and I needed to replace it..

Well, part of my annoyance is that this problem is ROM specific. Gummy and CM9 load it fine. MIUI and AOKP don't. Not sure what is going on. Just going with Gummy for now...
Sent from my XT875 using XDA
fyi gummy is aokp based so..
Oh yeah. I meant that MIUI and Axi0m don't read the card. Thanks.

No problems just giving you the real facts so you know lol no sure what is causing this wish I could be of more assistance. I should know how to fix but I am stumped

I flashed Axi0m and took a few pics with the camera. The immediately showed up in the gallery. About a half an hour passed until I checked my phone again, and when I did, viola! My pics were in the gallery...and my music was in the music app. Super weird.
Still no luck with MIUI

found out this might be the issue sometimes when you are in your "gallary" or whatever you are looking for in your sd card try opening up the file manager and see if you can see them there..

I was in class, pulled out my captivate, went to look at some pictures. They werent there. Got me curiois so I went into the file explorer to see what was up. My external sd no longer has any understandable files on it. All of my photos, music, videos ANYTHING are not there. It has all been replaced with gibberish, random letters, numbers and symbols. The only file still there is LOST.DIR, and it too is filled with nothing but numbers from 4 to 94xxx.
WHAT HAPPENED? Please offer some advice if you can. I had lots of very special pictures from deployment and my wedding on that card.
Im running Cog 2.2 beta 8.1, using oclf. The only two things really done to the phone.
Ive noticed over the last few days, recently installed apps would disappear, id download them again and the data/progress would still be there.
Please help of you can, can the files be recovered? What happened? How do I prevent it from happening again?
Sent from my SAMSUNG CAPTIVATE using XDA App
Sounds like your card is bad. Did you leave it in while flashing your phone? That can cause an issue.
If your PC has a card reader and you have an adapter for it you may be able to recover some of your stuff.

I was worried that may be the problem. Any suggestions on a good recovery program. Dont care if I have to pay, these files are priceless
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
I wish I knew. Do you have a card reader on your PC? I think you should be able to just view what is on it when inserted into your PC with an adapter, it should be visable as a drive, just browse it. I am not 100% certain of the process for restoration.

Is anyone else having issues with apps uninstalling between powering off and powering back on their phones? I seemed to lose 2-9 apps randomly each time my phone turns off or powers down and when I power it back up they are missing, and its not always the same apps. Anyone else having similiar issues?
what rom are you running?
Im running liberty #39 and have no issues like that. I havent heard of that either. mabye you should fxz it may have a corrupted file or something that is causing this.
There is already a thread about this is general titled Disappearing Apps.

Seems like you were wrong TopazAaron
Seems like you were wrong TopazAaron, a lot of people are having the same problem and the ROM isn't making a difference, check out the disappearing apps in general like dude said and you will see a lot of people are having this issue. The only semi viable fix is to make sure all apps are on your phone but I'm losing space is the issue, sucks they cant be on my SD card. I'm checked stock and Unleashed v1.4 which is what I am currently running and they both did the same thing.

Where do you get the liberty ROM from?
Sent from my DROID BIONIC using xda premium
Those apps that are disppearing are in the media area of your internal sd card. When in settings/application go to storage use. Then if they are in media area move them to phone. Problem will be fixed. Also in the future please use the search function as there are tons of threads about this buddy

I cannot find any of my recently taken pictures on my Bionic. I recently moved all of my pictures to my external sd card on 2 separate occasions. But for some reason, after I took a picture today and tried to remove it from my internal storage, it wasn't there. I can find it in my gallery, but not in any file, anywhere. I tried searching using es file explorer and nothing. I am rooted on stock. Does anyone have any advice?

Did you check the external?

Have you tried importing the files to your computer? A lot of times it will tell you where they are stored whether it be an sd card or simply a random file folder....you can also change where you want images stored after taking a picture, let me know if this helps and if you have any trouble I'll be glad to help fix it.

If you see the picture in your gallery you should be able to select the picture and hit options. After that hit details and on the bottom it should show you the path to where the picture is saved to.
They were on my external sd I didn't notice them because all of my instagram pictures were at the end of the list, not my most recent pictures, lol. Thanks for the help.

I had the same issue. I'm thinking it has something to do with synching with google. This has happened to me on previous devices as well. I had to individually delete over 1000 songs on top of pictures. I ended up going back to the stock rooted rom (I was on blackstars rom when this happened) and re-synched and installed everything without that happening again.

I have compiled a couple apps into it so it will actually write the apn rather than fail cause ics doesnt like the apn settings to be used by third party apps. I am not responsible if anything goes wrong with your phone you are doing all of this at your own risk.
Thank you CyanogenMod for releasing great roms as always

Yeah, Ive had it on my deodexed .621/.605 rooted droid x for about 6 hrs now, its running smooth and in all honesty its the best ROM Ive ever used as far a WIFI connection goes. Every one I know that has the OG droid X had WiFi prob's including me, it always dropped you for no reason or on some Roms it wouldn't connect at all but I haven't dropped once since Ive been running this. I dont know what Kiladar did to this but whatever it is my WiFi is scared to break connection. :goodThanks BTW Kiladar):good:
As far as the rest of the Rom, it runs smooth and everything Ive opened or tried is working like a charm, the only thing that ive run across that doesnt work so good is the themes from theme chooser. It has a problem resizing the theme for my screen size but I dont think thats the Roms fault. You can still use them but not all of them will fit correctly (not so bad if you dont get the ones with writing on the background) I will see about getting you some screen shots when I have access to a camera. my GF is out of town at the moment and I dont have a way to take any pics but maybe ill try the mirror method and see if that comes out clear enough.
If you hold the power button you can take a screenshot from there just an fyi

Awesome! Thank you. Love it, works great. Hope to see 4.1
Anyone have a mirror or a link to something other than 4shared?
Just coming back to dx. This ROM is awesome. No hangs, reboots, or general bugs. I've had the camera crash when I locked the screen with it running, but it immediately started back up. Could never have done that without a reboot on other ROMs.
A few questions, I'm currently with page plus will this make me lose service? Also is camera & video working?

What is wrong with this rom with the gallery not working right like playing videos that you have taken? Is liquid ICS better than this one?
Sent from my XT912 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
I like it! However, I have issues playing any sort of video. I get a green overlay, or sometimes no video, but sound. All sorts of different things, anything I can do to fix it?
