not stating what device
and what rom you are using
or even what type of sdcard
makes it rather imposible for people to pitch in

Hello.
I have mp3s in a folder on a 4GB SD card ... during the day i use resco audio recorder to play them.... for some reason I have been getting files (256k in size) that show up as a box in FILE EXPLORER or RESCO EXPLORER (they have no properties; creation date, name, etc) I cannot delete them.... any suggestions?
thank you for your time
just try first to do a soft-reset on your device, then try to delet it, if it doesn't work, u can simply erase it using active sync via your pc desktop....
doesnt work...
I tried taking the SD out and using windows xp {FAILED}
I tried active sync as you suggested {FAILED}
I tried from within using File Explorer, and Resco {FAILED}
and yes I tried soft resetting.
Thanks for your help.
Any other ideas?

anyone?
i think the next thing u should try is using an external USB memory card reader for desktop pc, it will be detected as mass storage, you can try delete it using windows explorer.. hope this will help.. anyone has another suggestion?
Hi,
for a few days, i have a problem with the download folder on my sdcard.
if i access the 'download' folder with a file-manager (like ASTRO or any other..),
i get a notification, that there is an error (i guess an access-error) with the sd-card. (and the filemanager shuts down after a few seconds)
In the 'download' folder there are some strange files, which i can not access,delete,rename etc..
some have the size of 0 k, some have a few MBs and some have a size of almost 500-600 MB.
i don't know where they come from and what they really do. also the filenames are pretty weird. (the names contain 'at'-sign ...).
if this error occurs and i open the camera, there is also a notification, that i cannot take any pictures due to an sdcard-error.
does anyone know what these files are? or what to do?
kind regards
Markus
If you hava a card-reader I would take the card out and delete the files with a PC.
A Card reader is not available. But if I connect my DHD via usb and access as a hard drive,I can see the files, but cannot access them. No read / write access.
What I haven't done yet, to copy all the files from my sdcard to my pc, format the sdcard from my pc and copy all the data back. (of course only the data which are accessable). Hopefully it will not harm my desire hd.

If you use Linux you definitely can mount the SD-card and do what you want with the files there (you may have to become root) but it is acutally quite easy.
I just dit it on my DHD.
If you don't have Linux installed, just download an Ubuntu Live-CD, boot from it, plug in your DHD via usb, select "drive mode" (or whatever it is called) on the DHD, go to the directory where the card is now mounted, solve your DHD problem and you don't even leave a trace on you harddrive.
Hello guys,
I have a bigger problem I hope you can help me with...
My internal storage is somehow messed up. This has effects on MTP and on some apps like the stock camera.
When accessing my internal storage by MTP from PC, only a few folders and files are visible. In contrast, if I list the content of "/mnt/sdcard" or "/storage/sdcard0" they show all my files and folders as one would expect. Also, files visible on the PC are inside this path and even when i copy a file from the PC, it is placed here.
The more serious problem is, that some apps are not able to find their files and folders inside die storage anymore. As an example, the camera app asks me to insert a sd card before taking a picture and Winamp doesn't find my music anymore.
What i tried so far:
Copying files from and to storage with Dropsync, FolderSync and ES Explorer: works without problems
I checked the rights of the files with the terminal: nothing interesting there
I cleared my whole storage (thanks to Unlock procedure) and flashed a new Custom ROM
I drank a lot of coffee because it got late
Nothing worked.
Please help, Thanks!
So thats me again.
I finally found the correct allready existing post. In this thread user dlzinc describes that one has to fix the permissions for /data/media. Good to know that i was right with permissions, bad that i didn't go through with it in the first place.

Recently rooted my phone thanks to these wonderful people at a place called xda-developers. You may have heard of them.
Anyway, I find that there's something weird going on with my phone, I can't write to the internal storage. External SD card works fine, Internal SD card does not. Only a few apps work.
The camera app will take and save photos, but using the camera within Kik Messenger gives m the error that the photo cannot be saved, I have to take photos with the camera app, then import them to Kik with the "choose photo" option, which will let me choose a photo through Gallery.
In another related issue, ES File Explorer will not create new folders. I'm in the main directory of the "internal" SD card, where things like Downloads and DCIM like to sit in. I cannot make a folder. If I go in with a Windows computer over USB I can make folders fine. ES File Explorer cannot even delete the folder. Says "New Folder cannot be deleted" Why is this? I can even rename the folder, but I still cannot delete this folder. Going into the properties it says I have full read and write access to the folder, I still cannot delete it.
In a third instance I have the GPS program Navfree. I cannot even run the program. Google Play installs it and it says it works, but when I go to actually open the program it gives me the error "Program cannot be installed, contact support" before quitting me back to the home screen. This program is special because it downloads and installs, but there are map files that it needs to download before it becomes useful. This is done within the app and I do not know where it tries to save to.
I think all of these problems are related and I have not seen any forum posting about it so far and I have been searching for a while. Google Play will still download and install apps like no problem and ES File Explorer will copy and move files around and will even rename New Folder to 'folder' but will not delete i
At first I suspected it to be the problem with KitKat and the debacle about writing to /external/ SD cards. But my problem extends to the internal storage as well. I have applied the fix to the 'permissions.xml' file by adding "WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" I had to flash the fix in with recovery because I could not save the edited file I had typed up. Using one of the automated fixes in Google Play told me the action had already been completed. On the contrary, external storage works fine, I can write files and delete them and whatever I want to the external. The problem is with the internal card and it applies to everything I've tried except the camera.
So what is going on with my phone? I have root access but some apps will not work properly. It's just one headache after another. Here's hoping I won't notice the next one until I get another phone...
Eventually I just got fed up with the problem and re-applied the stock rom with Samsung Kies. Re-rooted and now the problem is no more. Thanks for thinking about me!

not so sure but seems that your data its corrupted.
The data is not corrupted because i can upload the pictures to Facebook for example, or as i said, i can send them by mail, i can get my data by different ways, but i cant get them by USB
