I have a problem (my friend also) on the Note, when I load videos on microSD, in any folder, they disappear after some time. I do not use Kies, but frequently I connect the phone with cable for external storage.
thanks
Hi,
no idea to solve?
Did you try doing a disk check?

...the strange thing is that a friend has the same problem...
^^ are those 720p videos ? or greater than 4gb in size ?
same issue
Most of the videos has been deleted from my micro sd card (32 gb) with my galaxy note. It is really frustrating,problem disappears if using phones storage. A fix is requested urgently cuz this not accaptable from samsung.

While connecting the phone to the PC it is possible that a program intended for synchronizing or importing media file to PC can delete the files from SDcard. So does "PMB Sony" for example. You can change it in options.
Same issue with samsung Galaxy s2
Same issue here. My device keeps deleting video files from my external 16gb microsd.
I put video files inside a folder (/media/video) and after some time the files disappear. The only thing that I do is plug and unplug from a pc mounting usb storage several times a day (i do not use Kies).
I also used a freeware program to recover deleted files from the microsd and found out that the files were marked as deleted (i had success in recovering).
This thing is starting to be very annoying.
I'm on MIUI 1.12.9.
Thanks
I confirm that I have the same problem.

If I store video on the phone memory (not inside te microSD), the problem persists,
without using Kies, where can I found the menu to change options?
thanks
recovery program
Can you tell please which recovery program you have used cuz i tried one program but couldn't recover them . Thx

This is true and I also can confirm this. I did not notice that my videos were missing until I saw this post and checked for my videos on my XD card and they were all gone What was odd was that the video which were transferred over from another computer to the XD card did not vanish but the videos which were recorded with this Samsung Note did all vanish WTF
I never did a sync either.
I really don't remember the used application 'cause I did it on a pc that i can not acces anymore. In any case, the application was free and i really found it on 5seconds search on google.
bye
I'm thinking of two things, neither of which are probably right
Firstly, I recently installed Window7 alongside my Linux Mint installation. On this I've noticed that if I copy files from Mint to the windows partition that Win7 often does a chkdsk thing on booting up and goes and deletes all these files ! I've never had this happen with any other version of Windows (Xp, etc). I'm wondering is there some filesystem 'tag' on your pc that makes the system think that file is corrupt or something and results in the files being hidden/deleted.
Secondly, I was looking on Amazon for a Sandisk sd card and I saw a review by a guy who said that many sd cards are fakes and not made by Sandisk at all. Apparently a lot of these have a much smaller capacity than claimed and as you add data they fill up and older data is destroyed. Here is the link

I never connected my Samsung Note to a Windows PC and the videos still vanished.
Same issue here..
First of all, I don't think it's a resolution issue because I have two similar videos, one disappeared while the other is still there.
Second of all, my videos are on the phone's memory and not an external sd.
If I go to folder details and check last modified date I notice that all folders from which videos have disappeared have been modified at the same time.
No solution?!
did anybody contact Samsung?
and could it be app "smart lock" causing this disappearance?
thanks
all of you developers out there.. anyone to help??
I might be wrong, but i think that those files aren't deleted at all. You may have a FOUND or LOST dir on you micro SD card with files in it that are the same size of the lost Videos.
I think this problem occures when you turn the phone off while it searches for media files on the card.
Try making a .nomedia file on your SD Card root folder, Stock players might not find any Videos after you've done that but you can easily open them with a Filemanager (ES FileExplorer).
.nomedia helped me

maybe I do not understand your proposal, but the problem persists if I put video in the memory of the phone (not external microSD) adn I do not find the file with File Explorer, so I think it is lost...
I remember some people complaining about this when the EVO 4G first came out as well & for some it seemed to be bad SD cards but there were also a lot of firmware changes happening so unclear about the determined cause. This is troubling & would not like to still have to worry about this if I purchase the SGNote. Sounds like backup & keeping an eye on this is necessary. Has anyone emailed Samsung?
Hi all,
I have been suffering from this issue for a while but cant pinpoint the source of the issue.
Every time i try to transfer a large amount of data onto my phone the speeds drop every few seconds to zero then back up to a few Mbps.
This happens on all the different roms i have tried and even directly mounting using safestrap recovery. it takes a ridiculous amount of time to transfer my 13GB of music to the card (6 hours+). I have also tried to transfer it to the internal memory not the full 13GB but just a 1GB sample and i still had the same issue. I have tried multiple PCs on windows 8 and 7 and multiple cables in case this was the issue.
Has anyone suffered similar issues?
My fear is this is a hardware issue with the phone
When I found out my new Razr I couldn't use the SD card as a mass storage device, I was disappointed. I thought oh well, I guess it'll only be a problem if I ever want to take or dump files to friends computers but since having to rely on Moto's own device connection ways I'm getting a bit annoyed. First of all, if you want to "Move" a folder from for example, the root folder of the SD card into another folder, it's as if it's copying it bit by bit and takes AGES even in my USB 3 port. USB Mass storage has always treated the SD card like anything else in windows and will just move in a millisecond, but not this Also, I noticed upon transferring a folder which had 98 files, only 90 showed up on the properties once it was on the sd card I like to make sure transfers happened ok by comparing file sizes in bytes so this obviously throws it way off.
Has anyone come up with an alternative solution I wonder?
An alternative is a simple card reader
I think there were some experiments to get mass storage back, but i don't now if they succeeded...
But the new MTP - technology is better for the android system, it doesn't have to unmount the sdcard. and pc and android can parallel access the sdcard.
gesendet von meinem Motorola RAZR i rooted+unlocked
I guess they are some good reasons alright and yeah, I might have to start carrying a card reader so
Personally I like MTP, it's much faster than USB connection, but still it would be great to be able to choose from two options. I've read somewhere that even Motorola had problems with creating USB drivers, so it will be miracle if we see that option on our phone.

Airdroid.
There, i solved all your problems.
Never heard of airdroid, will check it out, thanks
MTP seems a lot slower than USB to me? Just the fact you can't "move" like I described is enough
Ok airdroid seems cool, but it seems not to be working properly for me, I've managed to view my sms on web.airdroid.com and the phone details etc come up right, but the internal and SD storage are both showing as 5.13gb with 1.34gb free when my SD card is 32gb.
Also it's giving errors on trying to open photo/video/app folders.
Like the idea so if it can work it'd be great.
Agree
I agree, it sucks!
It´s so slow the cable connection, that it reminds me my old moto V360´s one. Unbelievable!

It's strange because Airdroid works fine for me (expect the phone details but it's not a big bug)

Works pretty well for me. Maybe you modified something?
Did you test it today? I saw great ratings for it this morning when I downloaded it first but then later today I checked back and the latest ratings were saying it wasn't working.
Didn't modify anything at all really, tried both with an account and without an account and same issues.
Hooking up Razr i to PC really sucks cause you always need to install drivers and Motorola application when you plug into a new PC (and remove they after, when PC is not yours). But I think wi-fi transfer sucks too cause it's slower. =(
When I need to transfer small files I use X-Plore app on Android. X-Plore can access shared folders on your network. It works like a charm!
When I need to transfer big files, I preffer to plug on USB. There's no other way...
Hello, I have this weird SD card bug on my Nokia Lumia 525 for quite a while now.
Every time i try install a program to the SD card , It'll just pop-up a generic error message that doesn't give any code. And i tried to set the time and date on my phone but it that didn't work. But when I change back to my phone's internal storage, every programs install just fine.
And that's not the only problem.
Whenever I record a video to the card. It'll just be broken and unplayable, and the video app of windows phone will just display a message saying that it doesn't support that video that I just recorded. But when I use VLC to play that video, It works just fine, but it looks a little bit streched out . And for a moment after I recorded the video it will be automatically removed from the card.
I managed to copy the broken video to my computer and view it with many video viewing software, and none of them are able to show that video. And open it in Notepad, shows a bunch of Chinese and other Unicode characters.
Also, when i tried to copy a MP3 file to it and play it on the Music app on my Lumia, It'd play fine for a while and then It'd be broken and automatically disappear.
Another thing happened is that every single time i try to delete a folder , some moments later It'd come back with all of its content.
Another disturbing things that this card brings is any time i open the Photos app. Some images in the past'd be black out, and when i open it, it'd give out an error saying it cannot open that picture and when I rotate it, it will just show a picture that doesn't exist in the gallery and it looks really streched or distorted.
I don't know what's going on here, the last picture that's successfully captured and saved to the SD card is from July 2016
which its full name "WP_20160717_16_12_36_Pro" And everything works fine when I use the internal storage.
So if anyone know something about this will be nice.
Thanks.

Your SD card seems to be dead (read only). You can only access data you try to save/copy to it while it's still in the disk cache, then it just disappeares, as it wasn't actually written.
What brand is your card?
I mostly have Kingmax and Samsung cards with these problems, but it can happen with ANY card.

Hey , thanks for the reply, the card i'm using is a 32GB Lexar 300x, I've only got this thing for a few months. I'm quite surprised to think that my card is already broken since my earlier cheaper and have less storage card lasted quite long,more than the current one.

These problems can be quite random, my 8GB Samsung EVO card died after 2 years, one of the 2 8GB Kingmax cards in about a week, the other after half a year

Do you think it'll be worth a shot to do a full format of the card, since I can't afford to buy a new one currently.

You can try it, but my guess is that everything will show up again after formatting it

Yeah, sadly your guess was right. I tried formatting it on many different devices and it didn't work. Well i guess at least I got to hands on the rare card format ,the SD-ROM. Get it?
Well, so I gotta start saving now. Thanks for the help.
I had a lot of trouble with the Verizon Moto Z Force, so they gave me a refurbished Galaxy Note 5. Since there's no SD card slot, I'd opted for going for some OTG readers, but now that I have a battery case, I'd have to remove it each time since I cannot both charge and use an OTG device at the moment (someone told me this is dependent on the kernel?).
I had asked this question elsewhere, and someone told me to try here.
A sort of solution I came to is the idea of throwing everything on a cloud storage account. Having the saves sync across all my devices while having all the roms stored in a folder that doesn't, and just pulling a few roms onto my phone's storage at a time.
This seems great for games from much older systems such as the SNES, but not as practical for something like games coming from the PSP.
My question is if any of you know of any better solutions, or if you just have suggestions. Opinions are welcome. Keep in mind that I have a large battery case over my phone, in case there's any ideas about adding more accessories to the phone. So they may be a little less than feasible.
To clarify, I'd like to know any ideas as far as what I have: A Samsung Galaxy Note 5 with a battery case. I am not looking to change those two things. I am unable to upgrade and the current battery case I own has already cost me a lot for me already. Thanks in advance.
What's wrong with using the phone's internal storage? It works just like an sdcard, only without the ability to remove it physically.
It takes up a lot of space. Space that, when full, cannot be expanded through a micro sd card slot. I have space already taken up from files from my previous phone, 32GB is not a lot of space.
