I am unable to delete videos from internal tablet storage. If i delete any file, it says file is successfully deleted. Also, it will not be visible after delete. but as soon as I power off and power it on again, all deleted files comes back. it seems it is automatically restored. I have used file explorer to view videos folder then used operation option and then clicked delete option. I have also connected my dell streak 7 to computer and tried deleting file. but behavior is same. What shall I do? any help is appreciated.

You are more than likely in read-only mode.

Beg Dell to repair your device.
How does one get in to this mode? My buddies is doing this as well and I'm trying to fix it for him.

No one know. Dell is mute on the issue and my contacts were stone-walled.

Hello. I rooted my Atrix and have had no problems. I deleted most of the bloatware. I also put the settings in for the apn and access wifi hotspot via this forum.
Just a couple minutes ago, I plugged in the HDMI cable to show my mother some stuff on the phone and how the Media Center is but it wouldnt come up. It came up before I did all the root. But now, when plugged in it would pop up on my screen asking what to select and then it would go away. Can someone help me on what possibly might have happened? I would really appreciate this. Thank you so much.
Nick
sounds like you deleted something when you were removing the bloatware.
as advised in other threads, don't remove it, freeze it with titamium backup.
do a factory reset and pray it comes back.
It wont come back after a factory reset so....what you have to do is get the retail motoblur dump file and push the apks to the phone using ADB. Remember to push them to the sytem not /data.
Thank desigegears for telling me this.

Yes I did a factory reset and it didnt come back. I just read the thread that talked about that uptop after I did this. I feel so bad. I screwed up. How do I get the Retail Motoblur dump file? And pushing the APKs to the phone using ADB. I havent done this in a while. Please any help I would really appreciate it.
One of the devs posted it on the forum, not sure where. MAybe on page two? just scroll down. To push them to adb, designgears posted http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=966405 which shows how to push files. Just push the mediacenter one.
Thank you for the info. Im downloading a file where the dump said Blur_Version.4.1.26.MB860.ATT.en.US.tar.gz is that correct? It was in this forum. But the fileformat I dont know what to open that up with. Its like 145MB. I had to PM Designgears because I really dont know how to do this. I would just need the 1 file? I do have the phone rooted with Root Explorer. Anyway I can get the file on the phone and cut and paste it in the right path?
Ok that was the right file. I do have the mediacenter.apk file now. Anyway I can put this on there with the phone rooted? I have root Explorer and can paste that apk in there.
Use 7 zip to open the file. Got to the app folder and find the one named media center. Push that file or paste it into /system

No problemo
First I tried to delete some files, but it kept saying "Permission denied". Then I tried to open a movie from the card, it didn't do anything. And nothing else works either...
I don't know if there's any connection between these, but I'd rather let you know that I downloaded some suspicious files. I hope the tablet hasn't got infected or something similar.
I used to have such a problem not so long time ago... I had to reset the tablet, I didn't have a better idea.
I hope this time we'r gonna work it out.
Thanks in advance.
are u talkin abt the internal card? chk the file permissions n c if u can remount them..
the external sd card might ve the lock switch turn on, u can manually turn it off.
yes, you're right, I've been talking about the internal. I go and check it out now.

The only fix is to.send it to Dell
do you really think so? Btw the last option would be to reset the whole device again. But at the moment the only problem is that I can't delete those suspicious files. The others have been fixed. Haven't I mentioned it? So I can open the files again.
Btw I've checked the permissions. I only can unmount it...probably after I could remount it, but I don't want to delete anything.

If it's stuck in Read Only mode even a factory reset done by you will not change anything, IF it's in Read Only mode. If it's some other bug you may get lucky and get it resolved

Hi! I just now finished doing this same thing...
Its pretty simple:
Just copy all the whatsapp folder to the internal SDcard and re install the app.
After you put your phone number and name, it will say it found backup file and ask you if you will like to restore all that.
Just press yes
And you got everything back to normal

I put all the old conversations in whatsapp folder (in watsapp->datebases folder), then I deleted and re installed it, and it said nothing about backup..didnt work :/
?????????
someone????plz help ppl :/
hey,
yesterday, I typed 1 message only for a friend just 2 see if it works.
so I have done all the steps, copied all the needed files, and it restores me only this 1 message.
and somehow it does not recognize the other backup files..
hooo hate whatsapp for now it sucks what its problem ..
?????
Contact them
strange...
but dude if you still have the files on the side should be no worries
Send them an email to the "costumer service" of whatsapp they answer really fast and kind of know the app from inside!
Good luck!

I think the way told by #6 must have worked. It works for me, at least.
Well, put the backup files in the same position of SD card and the app will ask if you want to restore the history on your phone.
But, next time, try the normal way to backup and recover your whatsapp messages on the SGS1. Actually, WhatsApp has the options in Settings. You can even back them up via email.
Hi there,
I´m about to cry myself to bed tonight Just came home from vacation with my family and by accident I deleted the folder with ALL photos and videos I have taken..
So I have tried everything now to recover my files without any luck. I´m using a rooted HTC One (M7) with Trickdroid 5.6.0 and ClockworkMod 6.0.3.1. I found some recovery software for pc but the phone needs to be in USB mass storage mode in order for the recoverysoftware to work. But it is not possible to choose that mode in Trickdroid 5.6.
I triede to finde some UMS enabler on Playstore and also tried to use adb shell /system/bin/sdutil ums enable without any luck. I get an /system/bin/sh: sdutil not found message and now I´m tired and out of ideas.
Do you guys know any solution or workaround on how to fix this ?
Thanks in advance.
Regards
Pierre

The phone appears in windows as a portable device and not as usb mass storage. However I can browse all directories in windows but recovery software aps wont recognize the phone.

if you root your device maybe this could help: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=fahrbot.apps.undelete

guess then there's no chance for you to get the pictures back (apart from really professional help, but this is expensive), because it seems that the data got already overwritten if these apps don't find anything...

ok.. sorry i have no more idea right now. the only tip i can give you is that it's important you don't reboot/shut down the device anymore, because this often overwrites stuff... maybe someone else has another idea left

Try this out - in Dev options (settings), tap "Select USB configuration", change it to "charging", back out all the way to home screen, and then, go back and change to MTP, and back out to home screen - see if that helps.
