Hello,
The media scanner is no more indexing any media on my external sd.
Problem all my media are on the ext-sd so the gallery is empty and none of the music, video apps are therefore working as they don't know about my media.
I'm currently on Overcome 2.0b2.
I have installed all Overcome roms since 1.0.3 and this issue appeared since release 1.6.4.
When I startup the system it says that it is scanning internal and external sd, but result is that none of my media are indexed.
The problem doesn't seem to be the sd itself as it is accessible using any file manager and my music can be launched from Astro in example.
Could someone please help me???
Hi everyone. I've got a micro sd card reader for my P7310 which appears to work great. However, when I select a music track from an album it plays only that track and doesn't continue to the next one automatically. That's with using the built in player and dice player. Does anyone know of a player that will play an album from an sd card reader in its entirety automatically?
Cheers
My Gallery won't show anything stored on my ext SD, did it all the time, i have my pics and movies on my sd and where always vissible in my gallery, since a few days the Gallery shows only content from my inernal storage and nothing from my ext storage, when i check my sd is installed, and a can see the foto's and all other files, can open them, even with my gallery, but still not visible in my gallery.
a day later the same happend to my Music, all stored on sd, still exists but my music player won't recognize them, if i go to the song i can choose play, then choose the music player, and it plays, but my player wont find any music.
So it looks like my phone still will see all the content on my sd, but if i wanna use that content with an app, the app won't recognize the content, movies, pics and music (mp3) all on my sd, when i move it to my internal storage, it works great...
The only options i have in the gallery is show content from phone, facebook and picassa, but no sd options.
i restored my phone to factory default, still the same....
or someone else who knows i can fix it

Have you recently partitioned your SD Card or played around with it in any way? Have you been using Music2SD, Link2SD or Pictures2SD? Have you tried using another SD Card? What gallery/media player are you using?
Solved

Thanks for the hint, never thought it was the SD himself, because in my pc it works great, and all content was vissible, also in my phone with root explorer i found all my files, and was able to open them.
but tried another sd with some pics and stuff and they where vissible in my gallery, formatted the SD on my pc wasn't possible, but when i did it with my phone it was solved, now i can see all my old pics...
Thanks again
After the last update which renamed Walkman app to Music, application does not list my music files and folders in the external sd card. Internal card content is being listed without any problem. I have uninstalled the update but still it shows nothing from sd card, even in the folders tab.
How can I make the walkman application browse and play music files located in sd card?

This must be a problem with the default Media Scanner found on the device. You could try Rescan Media Root which works wonders for most devices
Requires root permissions you can use it to force scan external sd and internal sd for audio tracks.

Yes, it was a media scan issue. I tried this app from play store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.house.noranuko.mediarescanner
It solved the problem for audio tracks and walkman runs fine now. After a while I realized that ringtones are gone in whatsapp and system sound settings. I rebooted and sounds are restored gradually. Everything is well now. Though I am still curious about why this problem occured after the walkman update.
Anyway thanks and have a good day.
I've already set the default storage location to SD card and photos do get saved on my SD card. But videos still default to phone storage. Is there a way to also make the videos save to SD?
Are they 4k 60fps videos? If so they'll always save to internal storage as the sd card just isn't fast enough to keep up. You can always transfer them to the card after the fact though.
