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 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?

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

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.

Hi everyone
I've finally installed the Darky's ROM (10.1 on XWJVH) and am very impressed.
Make Samsung's factory software seem really weak compared to this.
I've however noticed that when comparing to the official screenshots, that my Samsung apps still have blue tabs compared to the green and grey style on the screenshots.
Everything else seems fine however such as the settings menu for example; this shows as grey (with the green overscroll etc)
Everything else seems to be great however, just wondering whether it would cause problems in the latter maybe?
If you need screenshots, let me know and I'll get some by tomorrow for you.
Cheers
Jordan
P.S
Has export contacts to SD card been removed, or moved somewhere else?
It only shows export to SIM card now?
You can just reflash the ROM again from CWM Recovery. Sometimes it takes flashing twice for the tweaked theme files to really show up...
Thanks Prasad will do so later on

Then it is clearly a ROM specific issue, and you'll have to post in the appropriate thread.
That's strange, it works like a cream with me.

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.
Rip
Read the op..... the miui has mounting issues not sure about axiom rom.....
Sent from my DROID BIONIC using Tapatalk
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.
Sent from my XT875 using XDA
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..
Sent from my DROID BIONIC using Tapatalk
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
Sent from my DROID BIONIC using Tapatalk
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

hmm.. that is super wierd dude sounds like you have a pos bionic.. try returning to stock and going back up..

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 have a samgsung captivate i rooted and put cyanogenmod on for my girlfriend but the camera applicaton FC every time. ive searched this forum and xda to no avail. before anyone asks it was a clean install and i wiped everything....please help!!
There are also files on /sdcard which might affect your camera. Things like thumbnails, cache etc. Try to find and eradicate those.
I've cleared those...and as an update to this thread i have upgraded to ics...now the app doesn't crash but i get a black viewfinder for photo and video (multiple apps)

I thought cyanogenmod had problems with the camera, Try flashing another ICS rom and see if it FC's
the ics rom i'm using isnt cyanogenmod btw.
no more force close but a black view instead
checkdisk your SDCard. then copy to PC and then delete every JPEG and PNG picture on SDCard.
the black screen happened before there was a sd card in the phone and without any pictures being taken and with and without a sim card...
I had this same issue before. Have you tried returning to stock to see if it happens.

Hi all,
My first post, and as of yesterday my first custom ROM. Despite some sweaty moments it worked fine thanks to the guidance on this forum and some leaps of faith Can't reply to the relevant thread directly since I'm n00b.
Was very happy with this, however one killer issue that's meant I've had to revert to stock is that Google Talk (installed via GApps link with the ROM) crashes to desktop (no FC dialog) when i attempt to use voice or video within it. Skype seems to work fine though. Anyone else experienced this? I haven't seen it previously reported on here which makes me think maybe I didn't clear something properly (I used cwm recovery 5.5.0.4 to wipe cache, factory reset and clear dalvik prior to flash). I tried repeating the entire upgrade twice from scratch but same issue is still apparent.
Thanks for the coolness and hopeful for some help and further development.

Hey.
You're not the only one. I have the same issue with Google Talk. I, like you, thought that I wasn't installing something right. I even went as far as using an outdated gapps package, namely 20120726, to no avail. If you've gotten help with this, please let me know. Otherwise, I have no idea what else to do. I don't want to revert to stock because, quite frankly, its terrible. Also, to anyone else reading this, any help would be appreciated.
Try uninstalling talk after you've flashed the Rom and then reinstalling it. Had a similar problem with Google search.

I just checked the tablet and i dont see an option for uninstalling the app. just force close and disable. I also checked the play store to try and download the app, but i dont see it in there. maybe i'm missing something? like i said before, any help would be appreciated.
I'm not familiar with Google talk, is it the same as voice. To uninstall you'll need tibu or something like that.
I did find talk to chat in the play store which maybe the same thing you're talking about

Hey, I just want to thank you for your response. Its been a big help. Unfortunately, google talk isn't the same as voice. Its the chat client that is found in gmail and stuff. They just have a separate app for it on android devices. I think i may just use skype to video chat since i can't seem to find a fix for this and I can't bring myself to go back to the stock rom. If anyone happens to find a fix or knows of one, please let us know. Thanks.
same problem here

gtalk doesn't work
My first ROM as well and facing the same problem with GTalk. Skype & Hangout on Google+ works fine. I was also wondering probably i missed a step.
But this ROM is so awesome don't want to restore. Other problems I am facing is that USB is not getting recognized on tablet and 3G not working. Any of you facing similar problem with 3G and USB?

As far as 3G, my tablet is the WiFi only, so I can't help you there.
With the usb, have you tried turning on the MTP setting? When you connect the tablet, go to settings>storage> and in the upper right hand side of the screen, if you press on the 3 dot things, you are going to see USB computer connection. press that and you will see the option to turn on MTP. I hope this helps.
Thanks for the replies, glad to know I'm not alone with g talk. Finally got stock ics ota but it's terrible! Prime example is Swype keyboard often appears the size of a credit card. Going back to cm as soon as talk fixed also had the USB issue but didn't try the workaround

it's all good. it happens to us all. I guess its a matter of waiting to see if anyone else realizes there is a problem and issues a fix of some sort. Int any event, i'm sticking to this rom until they find a fix.
