My prevoius phone is Mi9se, now I got Mi9Tpro.
I have tried the MiMover to transfer my data from one phone to another. Some apps failed of course, others are kinda there, but corrupt, had to reinstall.
On the source phone, some apps lost their configs, also gallery no longer displays the images (only some thumbnails work).
On destination phone gallery does the same. See screenshot.
Videos are fine.
Thumbnails are shown only those that fit in screen when app is opened. None of pictures are shown when opened. Slideshow works fine.
I have tried to wipe the new phone, unlock and flash latest xiaomi.eu (can't use any of non-xiaomi builds since I need call recording). Copied storage files manualy. Files are there, but same problem.
Any suggestions??
Tried wiping data and cache?

I have wiped everything, did a fresh flash. Then I copied MIUI and DCIM folders over.. And same issue is back.
I was using "Albums" feature in the Gallery, which seems to move the pictures from DCIM/Camera to MIUI/Gallery/cloud/. Once copied over, it somehow breaks everything.

I accidentally dumped a folder of images into a "Notes" folder on my SD card, and next time I launched the Gallery of course these random files showed up.
So I went to a file manager and found them and deleted them all.
But the Gallery still shows them I've tried "Clear Data" on the Gallery application (in settings), tried to FC the Gallery app then re-running it, nothing.. Still shows a cache of the old info.
I also moved a file from the root of the SD card to a subfolder, and that image too shows up from cache but can't zoom in on it or use it, as the image itself is invalid (still appears to be referring to the old location).
Anyone else had this happen?
There's probably a .thumbnails folder somewhere which you need to delete.
Oops, nevermind.. Searched more, discovered that you gotta remount the SD card for the Gallery to search or such.
Now I have a clean gallery again Had to create a .nomedia in my LauncherPro backup and some other random places I didn't want anything showing up.
Or try sdrescan from the market
hi, i just updated to 4.4 kitkat, but when i look in my album, there are lots of pictures that aren't there anymore. Almost all of my pictures were on my sd-card, so could that be the cause?
thanks in advance!

i tried it, but still nothing. Also, my music (that was on my sd-card) is missing..
very strange, i was browsing my files with file commander (es file explorer also didn't found the files) and then everything was back to normal.
it takes some time for the phone to read the sd card. just wait and i'm sure it'll show up

Hi..
When you update your ROM to 4.4.2, what method did you use? Flashing an FTF or apply OTA / Sony PC Companion update?

i flashed an FTF. i didn't wipe a thing, not even cache. I also had a few issues with different internet browsers, but after wiping their cache and rebooting the phone, everything is normal now.

if your pictures is in your Internal Card, then you just wiped them with kitkat.
if it is in the SDCARD, then check it out using file manager or connect your Z1 to PC and search the SD.
They are never deleted in SDcard unless you wiped external storage in recovery or your SDcard is screwed.

What if you clearing album cache? Does your old images shown up on album? I think ,not. Well, fortunately mine is OK because I move all of my images to External SDCARD (when flashing an FTF, I wiped everything). I guess your old images were stored on Internal SDCARD, weren't they?

no, the pictures that weren't shown were on my external sd-card. The pictures from my internal were still shown. None of my pictures are wiped, i now have everything back to normal. Just by clearing cache, rebooting, checking my files in file commander and waiting. Then everything was back

I did the same but now all my internal pictures which are old are at the top which is really annoying.
Can someone help with sorting.
Thanks
Has anyone experienced missing files on their sdcard or internal? I'm going through my gallery (Quickpic) and noticed an entire folder I had is gone, along with a few others. I also used ES File Explorer to see if they were there, and tried connecting it to my computer via USB, and nothing. Got a few backup apks missing too...
Is there anyway to get these files back?

I've experienced some of my apps just randomly disappearing when I take out my SD card and put it back in then I have to reinstall them. The icons still remain on my home screen but the apps won't run. As far as pictures go, no I've never had anything of the sort happen, not even things such as .txt files.

Before my pictures went missing, an entire folder full of fdroid apps disappeared, I thought I had deleted them by mistake, however, now that an entire folder of pictures is missing, I'm sure my phone is deleting things off of it somehow... Suppose I'll format it all and flash a new rom.

Before you format you could always try one of the numerous sd card file recovery tools out there.
Something like this.

I tried a few from the playstore to no avail. Though they did work, they didn't pull any of the recently missing files, just incredibly old and mostly corrupt files. I'll save this one for next time though (because with computers, there's always a next time x_x ), thank you though.
I can't believe this.
The same crap happened to me on a second XT890. I'm lost for words.
here is what happened.:
Got a phonecall, when I wanted to pick it up the phone would turn off saying not enough power, at 30 % !!???
Ok, so no big deal I thought,...turned it back on, had the same person calling me, everything was fine. Then i noticed the stored mms images would not load inside the conversations. Si turned the phone off and on again, mms images are loading again.
Got another phone call and my personal ringtone, gone, no longer there. Couldn't even switch it back even though the file, supposedly was there. Then I tried to play the file, google play music would not.
Next, all my images are gone, no longer folders of the camera and images and videos. Using quickoffice , that app says, no files on the internal sd card! WTF!?
Turning the phone off an on again, let me see the files on the card again, even let me play an audio file, going in and out of the folder, the files disappeared again.
So long story short. Everything seems to work except my files are gone and quickoffice and fileviewers won't find the files. When i put in an external sd card that works fine on other devices, it won't load the files, images, videos, only maybe 3 of 100!? What the hell.
This is the second time on a different phone but same model this has happened.
I can't afford to loose the images and recordings. are they gone? what has happened? I ran DR Fone recovery, and even that won't find the images i need,
Phone is rooted. And it's driving me nuts. Battery was replaced 6 months ago, everything was fine. Now that.
Please help, need my files, desperately.
What could have caused this? ? What is not working properly? Indexing? Gallery? Quickoffice?
Could be a corruption in the data
" corruption on your internal memory
" corruption on the system partition or dalvik
See if adb can find the files on your internal sdcard. With the command: adb shell ls /storage/sdcard0/[path to video/photo]
Thanks will try.!
In the meantime Root Browser shows the sd card as empty, and last time changed as 8/5/12 which was the build date of the phone.... :-/
Funky, When hooking up for adb and running a command the files and sd card became visible. So while visible I was able to safe all the files to external card. When restarting the phone the internal sd and files disappeared again. I cleared cache and dalvik and media storage, no effect. files remain hidden. Running sd maid it says system files are hidden. using es file explorer running showing hidden files i get a no permission response. same for sd card, says no permission. so something is blocking me. virus? i don't really use wlan or internet, wondering how to get everything working again. files and everything is there, but i have no access.
Still looks like a corruption somewhere. I should just safe all files that u need, backup data and do a full system restore and start over. With full I mean also a internal memory wipe.
Maybe there is a much better option, but I don't know any atm.
Still fiddling with it. Thought I just do a factory reset. Well didn't work.
Somehow before I did the reset the media store app was moved to sd card and a different apk was placed in system / app folder.
After the restart you guessed it, all data was gone as expected. Gallery and ringtones and video, and so on won't show. The media storage apk is in system/app folder, but it won't show under settings/apps/all.....
Not being an expert I think I messed this up by switching out the apks,.../
The one now in the system folder is: version 4.04-1351904261 but I need version 4.04-1344118159
Who can tell me where i can find one?
This is a problem I've been facing since like a year. Everytime I open Google Photos, com.android.media stops and Photos app shuts down abruptly. For this reason I haven't been using it at all.
But now, it stops just anytime randomly. I get to see a FC message for it. I collected the log, if anyone can help me understand what the issue is, I'll be very grateful.
I've wiped my phone several times, changed ROMs, went to stock, everything but the issue still stays.

I had that issue a while ago and I had to wipe everything from TWRP (davlik, cache, system, data AND internal storage) and afterwards I didn't restore anything from Titanium Backup. It was a pain but it fixed the problem.

Did you also not restore contents if internal storage? Like photos, music files, etc?

I copied what I wanted to save from internal storage to my computer and copied it back when I was done installing the ROM and setting up the phone. Like you mentioned I copied pictures, music, downloads and I think that was all I saved. It's been a while ago so I don't remember exactly but anything that I felt was important I copied off and copied back.
