Lg optimus black SD card problems. - LG Optimus Black

Greetings brothers,
Recently, I found that my music disappeared from my gallery,but when I search into sd card via polaris office I find all the music there. Same thing happens to photos...any suggestions on how to solve this problem?
Oh and btw when I use gingerbreak, it keeps saying: rooting etc. Any solutions?
EDIT: I have used programs like sdrescan or rescanmedia but none of them worked.

Hi,
Since two days ago when i installed the Marvel ROM, I have the same problem. Cant see photos, music, etc... But if i go to Root Browser i see the photos on the SD Card.

Check if there is any .nomedia file in the root of sdcard or in your music/picture folders.

try what they said above and if it doesnt works...try defragmenting it using a pc

Hi there!
At the moment , I am in holiday and I'll arrive tomorrow. I will search in my sd for that .nomedia but I have a question...will sd defragmentation from phone work ? And how to do the defragmentation via pc? What programs should I use.
Thank you for your assistance. You are such a good community. Good night to every one!!

i had the same problem. i´ve tried three diffrent roms but the problem was still there. but i´ve solved it like that:
- update rom manger
- reinstall clockworkmod, so the newest version is installed
- install any rom (i am using boypes cm 7) with wiping data/cache/dalvik cache
and voila, my p970 recognized all my media files^^
sorry for my bad english

Thank you Celo385!
I will be doing that ehen I'll arrive home. Keep calm, your english is ok lol.
I think I will put Fop rom cm 9 nightly 6 but idk..xD. Thanks for your assistance

Remove /mnt/sdcard/.nomedia
Because it is in the root of sdcard it hides everything.

I deleted the file, rebooted but i cant see the files in the gallery. And the file was created again.
Note: When i installed the Marvel ROM i dont formatted the SD Card. May be that?

I had same problem, I tried unmounting the sd card and then mounting again, worked.

owh,..
thank bro for your advice,..:good:

Also be careful getting fake, imitation sd cards out there, it would cause you instability problems like those gallery messing up, occassionaly read write errors when rom flashing or install apps on sd, and sometimes you already deleted this photo/video and will show up later on, getting duplicate copies on thumbnail galleries but actually its the same, so when you delete one, you delete both. You really cant tell the difference from fake to original, most of the time its logo easily fades. Also get those made in japan, korea or taiwan, not those made in china.

restored means (reinstalled, or you used an app to backup and restore the apps?) What firmware are you using?

Forget the backup. Try installing an app on the market, save/move to SD and see if it's recognized.
If it is recognized and able to open the app, then the app used to restore your apps is the problem.

And your post is confusing. Be straight to the point next time. I believe this is not an SD issue. The app you used to restore the backup is poorly coded. Just reinstall them one by one if they are available in the market.

Pictures missing from gallery and other media

Hey i be recently noticed a problem that every time I reboot my phone, my previous images from gallery and music from Apollo disappears.
I ran kaspersky on my phone but can't detect anything funny. Have also tried to load the videos in vlc but it doesn't work.
Other android users have faced some problems like this but a quick reformat of their card would erase this problem. In my case im not using ext SD card from the note, but using the internal sc card that is the mounted flash memory.

Hi, I'm a defy+ user, and i too have the same problem with my phone after CM10 17th Aug update.. is this CM10 issue or SD card issue??
then it can be a multitude of reasons.
I like clean installs, I dont like recovering apps, especially not data. But thats me.

Thanks for the link. Going to take a look at it right now
Thanks it works for me. But only the camera pictures are back.. not all the music and videos. Thanks for the fix!! I had a feeling It was the ROM manager since it started acting funny after I had updated it lol

[Q] Installing directly on external sd

I think the internal SD card of my i9000 is corrupted. I've tried everyting: wiped/factory reset, reinstalling Cyanogenmod10, installing Stock ROM, installing stockrom with re-partitioning on etc. Nothing works. I'm using odin to reinstall the stock ROM. Flashing the stock ROM to my phone goes well, but then when I restart and android is installing, I get error messages like:
/can't mount sd card
After reading a lot on XDA, my conclusion is: broken internal storage.
Now I want to install everything on my external SD. So I bought a 8GB cat10 SD card.
Found this XDA-post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1893354 Seems very promising, but I seem to get stuck on '-- Extract initramfs from zImage ( https://github.com/mistadman/Extract-Kernel-Initramfs )'. I;ve got a virtual machine running Ubuntu. When I start the script, nothing happens..... the terminal just closes.
The easiest solution for my problem would be a ROM that is altered to directly install on my external SD. I red somewhere that ROMS like that exist. Can't seem to find one though.
Well.. thanks for reading my post, and accept my appologies for my bad english. You can probably notice I'm not a native speaker.
Does someone have a solution for me? Maybe know of a good thread?
Thanks in advance!
Greatings, Eldoro
also formatted my internal sd through adb...doesnt help either
You need to search for a data/data file that you can flash in Odin that will fix your internal SD card. I had same problem. My Android soultions helped me. Try searching for that also

Tried that already... didn't work. That method only works if your sd card is totally dead. The phone then automaticly switches to the external sd
My isn't totally dead..

Install stock rom JVU in ODIN, then flash this kernel
How do I have to flash? With repartitioning checked or unchecked?
Do I have tot restart and let android try to install after flashing? Or must I flash your kernel directly after flashing the rom...

first of all apologize for asking a question and not answer your question, when you were CM10 and came back to a stock rom had to do some special way or just did you use odin? in my case I had installed CM 10 and accidentally format the internal sd through cwm now my cel just go to recovery and download mode.
excuse my English, English is not my native language, I use a translator
Thank you rxxxni, flashing the sdcard fix worked. My internal sd card had been stuck in read only mode and it took more than a week to find a fix.

Can't access my gallery, music etc

I installed custom rom 'Android Revolution HD 5.3 by Mike!' on my hTC Incredible S. It worked like a charm for month, but last night when I tried to access my gallery and music I can't view em. The files are there when I access them from file manager.
help me on it..
Try shifting your music and pictures to a different directory on your sd card. This is a common issue with that rom. Or you can make a backup of your data on your computer and format the sd card.

[Q] Imternal sd awkwardly partitioned

Hi all,
I noticed that my internal sd card has two 0 folders, they are like so
Sdcard/0/0/
Everything from internet saves on the first /0/Download for ex., i am now on arhd 51, but previously on archidroid everything saved inside /0/0/Download, is there any way to fix this, or repartition or something without need to wipe all the data in sd? Because everything is messed up and i don't know any more wich uses what folder and so on.
Thx in front.
Edit: posted in i9305 not i9300 Q&A, mods please transfer, sorry for that.

can you post some screenshots of the two folders and their content, perhaps i can tell you what to do?
Edit: you can also copy all the files in one of the 0 folders to the other 0 folder and delete the empty one, i asked for screenshots just to make sure if there is any important file in one of those folders that maybe will cause problems with functioning of other apps or system settings if you replace it.
Here is the /0/0/ and i cannot delete archidroid folder or clockworkmod folder (write protected), also if i copy pictures from 0/0/DCIM/Camera to 0/DCIM/Camera, they are not shown, even after reboot when mediascanner is running, when i transfer them back they are imediately shown.
Edit: i can delete archidroid and clockworkmod folder, but via phone, not via pc, but the probem with transfering pictures to now used DCIM still persists.

I transfered all the pics inside a new folder in sdcard/0/DCIM but they just don't wanna show, they pop up only in sdcard/0/0/DCIM
What can cause this problem? (I can normally view them in file managers.
I noticed that when i force run media scanner it scans storage/emulated/0/0/
It doesnt scan the first /0/ that is used now, can this be fixed?

oke bro, here is what you should do everything personal and important to you like pics./music/documents copy to your external sd card or to your pc if possible both should be safe. format your internal sd card of the phone in recovery mode after everything is restored back put your files back into proper folders and all should be fine again. you are rooted and have custom recovery installed right?

Yes of course i'm rooted with twrp, i tought there was some other way than getting in all that copy paste, but i'll do that and then it must, just must work.
I think i messed something up in archidroid installation when it asked for EXT4 repartitioning or something like that.

yes that must be it, as i had read somewhere on these threads a similar problem like yours its better to avoid changing or setting options from which you dont understand what they do like EXT4 or F2FS partitions unless you know what you are doing. at least thats what i do to avoid any problems with my device

Yes, i know now for future, but, one more question..
It's 'calculating time for copy...' now, i see it'll take ages to 'calculate', so, is there any option to just mount the internal sd card, i remember i could mount it via CWM on my old S2 and everything went quick, but i cannot mount just SD anymore, only as a 'Media device', it seems quite slower..
Do you know an option to do that?
Edit: Disabled indexing, it's flying now

I do recommend using philz touch CWM advanced edition or just the CWM touch version as a recovery choice (especially philz) rather than Twrp, but its all up to you..
I was on philz quite a while, now testing twrp, i did the wipe, everything's perfect now, but i accidentaly deleted my pics coz' they were in the 0/0/ and i deleted the second 0 thinking i don't need it
I got a little shock but i'll recover
