THANKS DUDE
i was kicking myself thinking i had missed the post
but thankfully not
1. When looking at my files on my external SD card, whether from a PC or through a file manager, why does my folders keep getting duplicated? The folders simply duplicate, but only one of them has the actual folders.
2. Why do photos on my external SD card keep duplicating. I might start out with 10 photos, then it could double or triple - and they're copies? (music never duplicates)
3. On my internal SD card, why the hell do I randomly lose photos?
I'm on AOKP by the way.
Such good questions. The issue is that
Anybody?

So i have had my sprint galaxy s3 for about 6 months and finally took my 16gb sandisk sd out of my old evo 4g(which has been actively used by my little brother). I put it in my s3 and then formatted the sd card. after the format was done, i moved all of my 175+ photos from the internal memory to the sd card from the phone. it took about 15 minutes. for some reason when I try to view them a a couple minutes later, some of images are black in my photo gallery and my phone is 'unable to open the file.' i slipped the sd card into my usb sd card reader. the message i get when i try to open those photos are 'Photo gallery is unable to open the photo or video. The file may be unsupported, damaged or corrupted.'
now ive tried a couple of 'data recovery' programs to no avail. is there any way that i can get those photos back? freeware would be ideal but if i have to pay, so be it. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!
Hi guys. I tried to browse for answers regarding this issue, but I couldn't find anything that worked for me,
I've gotten to a point where any time I either download a single picture from Whatsapp or take a photograph with my phone, I get the "There's not enough space in your device memory". I discovered that neither deleting apps nor moving them to my SD card had any effect on this. This is very frustrating. I have double checked every single folder inside "sdcard0" and there are no big files taking up space. I'm running on a stock, non-root 4.1.2.
I recently deleted around 200 - 300 pictures from my external SD card and the following time I connected the phone to my computer, I noticed the phone's memory had like 200 mb of free space that it didn't before (and yes, I was ABSOLUTELY sure those pictures where stored in my external SD). But just a couple of days after that, the space issue got even worse than before.
I found a thread made by someone with the same issue, and someone suggested to uninstall all Google Play updates. I did that, and it didn't work.
I hope you can help me find a solution. Thanks in advance.
Hi all! I love this forum and I would greatly appreciate any help you can give me.
I recently upgraded from the HTC one m8 to the HTC 10 and I noticed that sometimes when I take pictures they completely disappear. They're there for a short while then I can't find them again even when I connect the phone to my PC. I can't change the camera settings to store the pics on the device rather than the SD card. For some reason it won't let me change it. Also sometimes when I take a screenshot I get an error saying that it couldn't store it on the SD card because the app doesn't have permission or sometimes it says that there's no room on the SD card. Both are untrue.
I went to a comic convention today and took some good pics, I went to upload one to twitter but I think there was a network problem because nothing online was loading so I restarted my phone and then the pic (and the others I'd taken during that day) had disappeared. I took more pics and double checked they were in the gallery, which they were only to find they have gone missing now.
Is this a device issue or an Android issue? Any help would be great, I'd love to get these pics back.
I feel like I was having issues finding photos I downloaded from Google Drive as well.
Download Quick Pic from the store and see if you can find them through settings.
HTC10
Thank you for your advice. I downloaded it but unfortunately the pics are still missing. It's just so weird. I shared one via Skype before it disappeared. It still shows up in the Skype convo but nowhere else

Did you try a file Explorer?
HTC10
I did and still nothing. Only 5 pictures appear that I've taken with the camera on this phone and I've taken at least 20. The ones that have disappeared are from different times as well.

Where are you saving them to? The internal storage or external SD card? It shouldn't really matter I suppose but it might be a factor.
I save to the external card and haven't lost any.
To the external card. I tried changing it to internal to see if that made a difference but for some reason it won't let me change it

More pics keep disappearing. I don't understand it. Some stay on the phone and some don't

try formatting your SD card within the phone and see

As the person above me stated, reformat your sd card from within the phone and restart your device. Then change the photo save location to your sd card.

after you get your card formatted and working because it does seem like you have a faulty card or not formatted properly to save the photos, I would set up google photos to save them automatically, you have unlimited storage with it if you choose that setting. That way you will have have them backed up even when on the go and since its kinda the new htc 10 gallery no reason not to use it fully, will also remove the sync sign in the app on the corners of your photos

Do you have an issue where you SD unmounts?? Try a different camera app to see if you can map the internal memory.
I've had the problem with the SD card ummounting, it's a pain but apparently something which a lot of people live with.
Try a different SD card, see if this persists, try with no SD card, see if it persists.
Clear data on the camera app within application manager.
Use a file manager and go to DCIM check all the folders within that folder and see if you can see the images you took.
So long as the little preview of the image showed a change within the camera app, the images should still be on there.
Hope this helps.

The photos already save to the SD card. They've always saved to the SD card from the moment I bought it, put it in the phone and formatted it. I didn't even need to change anything in the camera settings. They're just automatically stored there. I could format it again but then if the photos are somehow hidden on the card then they'll get deleted.

I tried different camera apps and they wouldn't let me choose anywhere but the SD card to save photos. I removed the SD card and the camera apps would'nt take pics. They kept insisting I insert an SD card. The camera app that came with the phone wouldn't even bring up the storage option. The other camera apps wouldn't let me choose anywhere else to save photos. They said cannot write here. I'll try another SD card when I have a chance to get one. The little preview showed at first in the photo gallery but the moment I selected it it wouldn't load then it refreshed and the image was gone.
It's just so odd that it's not all pics.

And in file manager?
Also what rom are you running mate?
Any mods which alter installation locations? Are you on the correct firmware? What htc do you have US carrier? International?
It does sound odd, but I'm thinking fixable. Could it be a read / write issue? Has permissions been denied for the camera?
Check permissions within camera in app manager.

Once they've disappeared from the photo gallery they also disappear from the file manager.
It's the stock rom that came with the phone. I haven't modified it like that in any way.
It's O2 carrier in the UK.
As far as I know it's the correct firmware.
The only time there is ever an issue with the camera is when occasionally it tells me it can't save the image due to insufficient storage (which is untrue because there's plenty of storage) the same happens for screen shots sometimes but a restart of the phone fixes this on both occasions.

If it's stock then you're on the correct firmware, have you tried factory wiping the device??
If you have then it could be a faulty phone as this does sound pretty unique, i've never heard of it before.

I haven't tried a factory wipe yet. Was hoping to exhaust all other options first just in case the lost photos are recoverable some how. But if that's my only option left I might just contact HTC about it.
You could be having an SD card issue. My SD card has been replaced and formatted more than once. My pix disappear, and my music disappears. I use a ringtone from my music folder and my phone keeps un-mounting my sd as if it's not in the phone. I know when it happens because my notification and ringtones change.

Ok so I tried getting in touch with HTC but they didn't respond to my email. I logged onto a live chat with them but I got disconnected because they finish at 6pm.
Then I decided to just format the SD card. I figured if I haven't been able to recover those lost pictures by now, I never will be. Besides the phone was getting worse. I could no longer take pics through Instagram and an HTC software update wouldn't download because apparently my phone storage was "read only" which isn't true.
Any way I formatted the SD card twice and set it only for storage not for installing apps and the phone seems to work fine now. I can actually select phone storage in the camera app now where before it wasn't an option. I also no longer get errors when saving screenshots. The whole thing was so weird I'm just glad it seems to be ok now.
Thanks for all your help and advice.
