Buggy Walkman or SD Card death? - Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
This keeps happening and is really annoying:

For some unknown reason all my songs are duplicated?
I have 406 songs on my 16 GB SD card. But this is just weird, and I cant seem to fix it:
- Wipe data of app wont work
- Reboot device wont work
- Remove SD card and put it back wont work
I am not gonna format my SD card (again)..
So does anyone else have a solution?
Regards

Stop using walkman app and use other music player to see if app or SD card is problem.
Does file explorer show duplicate files in folders.?

Somethings wrong with the sd card then...and chek if acualy 812 songs in the sd card.and check the space occupied by .mp3 files

You can always put in "no media" file in duplicate location to stop search's in those locations.

I've got a new SD card. I think the old one was broken. It works now without problems. Thanks for thinking

Okay I've got myself a Class 10 32GB SDCard and what do you think:
The problem still occurs. I've done some research and I believe that the database of the walkman app gets corrupeted.
I have 415 songs at the moment and most of them have an albumart, and some files have the same artist but diffrent album art or diffrent artist but same album and album art but the arts are always messed up.
So I'll perform a factory reset and hopefully it will be fixed. If not a reflash and last option is another ROM

I had the problem with my walkman that it didn't find any songs on my SD-card. The songs were located in a "Sounds" folder. When I moved them to another folder (let's say Sounds2) with ES, and rebooted, the songs were shown again the walkman player. Maybe this could do the trick?

It works now but I'll try that when the issue occurs again

i am having this problem with album.
all the cache image and apps data image are being shown in the album which leads to around 1000 photos in the gallery.
plz suggest me what to do?

Put a no media file into those folders you don't want showing up.

After placing a .nomedia, be sure you have 'media' scan your SDcard all over again. Otherwise it'll just stick with what was found during the last scan

I found that the prob was with the app called "Super Backup" .
I made backup Of many apps and all the files had photo cache and data which showed in the album.
Now I have moved the backup from sd Card to my laptop.
Now as I have deleted backup from sd Card its gone from album

First check the allow install from external sources in the security settings... Then go to tibu settings and search for the backup folder.. There's an option for it..

Then create a filter.. Choose the copied and the uninstalled
Then you can restore..

do note restore is not recommended in first post of cm9, where paranoid android is based on.
Apps only shouldnt be to much of an issue, but apps with data might cause some issues.

hey
i found i found the backup folder but why is their not a simple way to just restore the apps, i still dont know how iam meant to back them all up, this really is confusing. backing them up is so easy.
also iam dead confused now, i thought TB was safe to restore with data as long as you dont restore system data?
how on earth would i get all these apps back with my bookmarks etc?? lol
cheers.
you can restore, but when issues arise, its most likely because of that, so you know

Will it be issues with the app etc? Theirs only some apps that have data in them which would be good to keep. I still cannot find how to install my apps' I see nothing in restore in TB? Any help would be great. I thought my backup would just show up. I am running the free version btw
Thanks
I guess its batch restore, in app list pres menu button, should be there somewhere.
Or select app, then select restore in popup.
Issues could be:
lag
no deepsleep
force closures of apps
random reboots.
You probably wont get them but if you do, its likely because of restore

I used my backup pro as TB is just so confusing to me. I have apps back with data and all seems fine but I've noticed I cannot see a thing on my external SD card? The folder is empty for some odd reason. Now it manages to locate the folder in TB although I didn't use it to restore ' my sd card seems blank but it cant be as I never formatted a thing. Any idea??
All I did was flash rooted gb rom from stock ics and then installed cm9 rom and external SD is not
Shown in es file exploror
Cheers
yep, check folder mnt, check folders in there, one of them is your external sd
its mnt\emmc and not sdcard\externalsd anymore
They do it differently in cm9

Link2SD but low internal memory

Hello.
Why my internal memory is low (56 mb) but all my aps is linked to SD on a ext4 partition with Link2Sd ?
Where is the problem?
I cleaned and relinked everything and memory still low
Till yasterday my memory was ~110 mb. Maybe Juice defender ultimate is the problem? Is my last installed app.

I encountered this problem once and switched using "INT2EXT4+" instead, you don't have to manually move stuff with that script and I havent noticed any problem with it.
Use titanium backup to backup all your apps if you're not already using it.

ok
how to use INT2EXT4+ ?
I don't have an app like Link2SD.
Try going to data/local with a root explorer and delete .apk files in there. Link2sd sometimes makes a copy when linking apps and they end up in there, just taking up internal space.

The tutorial is in the link. It makes the phone have more "internal" storage (using the space from the SD card) so all you gotto do is to install apps and they will work as they usually do. You have to partition your SD-card, just search "partition SD card xda" on google and ull find a tutorial for that.
Used amarulz script dude it can make our internal memory higher with make our sdext become internal i have 1.5GB for internal but u must deleted other script with similar function to avoid bootloop..

yeah because some ROM already have script sdext u must remove it before using amarulz script..
use rootexplorer go to system>etc>init.d
When you link apps to sd-ext, the data from all those applications still stay on internal memory. Those consumes a lot of space. Better try moving movable applications to sd card.
Even I also faced the same problem on an earlier ROM. Didn't find a solution though.

Gallery shows 0 images

Hi there,
I'm on RocketRom v12 (4.0.4 LRT) running notecore 14.1 as standard with this version of the rom.
Last week my gallery suddenly stopped showing my pictures. They're all still on the phone, just not showing up in there. When i take a new pic it doesnt even show it in the gallery after. I looked for .nomedia files, unmounted the sd card, unmountrd then rebooted. I think it might be related to the media scanner because i havent seen it pop up in ages.. Shouldn't it come up at boot? I have files on ext as well as int sdcard both as said none show up in the gallery.
Thanks in advance.

Are you storing the pictures in internal or external SD card?
Can you swap the storage medium for pictures and see if that helps.
If you are like me where factory reset does not really impact the data i have and apps i use, you can factory reset and reinstall the rom to see if that fixes the problem.
Internal mostly. Camera should save them there too.
Im considering a full wipe but im really not sure if itll help.
Cant use the camera properly now so its becoming more urgent for me.

Tried to switch but no good. Can see the pics in a dcm folder on my ext sd
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda app-developers app
Few things you can do.
- Completely wipe and factory reset and re-install the rom
- Clear data/cache from the application.
- Media scanner could be in error and this should get fixed with a fresh install
- Remember that only user data is reset during factory reset. This means all applications, messages, call data etc are wiped.
If you have synced your contacts with Google, well and good you should just do a factory reset, wipe data, wipe cache and reinstall the rom. If the problem persist, change ROM to double check if its not a Rom Problem.
Thanks. Ill try all of these tomorrow and ill post the results here

Same problem for me except that I am having this issue on CM10. Can anyone help me out? Photos that have been taken after flashing CM10 appear. The photos are stored in my internal memory. Same goes with music apps as well. Everything is stored in my internal memory.

You may have to see if factory reset helps and install the current nightly. This is the fastest way to check if there is a problem. Other options will take time to diagnose the problem
My issue was solved by a full wipe. Thanks a lot

Only second swap can cause this,(like my old 8gig sd)
If formatting through phone doesn't work. You must take back the card to wherever you bought it & change it.

My advice to u is dat u first of all format everything...sdcard, system,etc. This problem mostly occurs when the sdcard becomes corrupted..i had a nokia 6120c and one day i was surfing the web and poof!!! My mobile was no more. Taking it to the service center they told me the reason dat i posted 2 lines before...if u wish that neither ur data should.be lost, den dont do the trick. Also i would.recommend dat u check for.errors in the sdcard

Happend to me too. Let me guess, you save your pictures automatically on the nano sd?
Because that is how it corrupted mine. Putting internal storage as prefered save Location will solve your problem. The Pictures will stay corrupt though.

It might be phone needs update. Cause I never had problems until using this phone with this sd card
Same problem with just bought 256GB card. Photos and videos getting randomly corrupted. I really hope it's a software issue and will be solved with upcoming OTA. What a pity!
I have 6/128GB version and 128GB nanoSD and now I take a picture and nothing is broken.

May I ask if you saving pics taken to your nanoSD card?
Seems like problem solved in 140/153 update for me.
How were you able to solve the problem? Was it a faulty nano memory card?
Was it a faulty nano memory card eventually?
