Evening all,
I recently flashed a generic HTC ROM onto my Desire to get rid of the lovely Orange branded ROM that came with it.
Ever since I cannot play my music stored on the SD card through Music or Tunewiki. When I open Music or Tunewiki neither application can find any music files. The files are in the exact same location as they were in before I flashed the new ROM. Can anyone tell me what's going on and how I fix it?
I've searched Google and XDA to no avail.
Thanks in advance.

It's a widget, clicking on it will remount your SD card and refresh all the files. Should fix it.
I learn something new every day. Problem solved.
Cheers

Ih everybody!
I've some problems to add new ringtone to my desire..
I flashed the new oxigen 2.0 rom (gigerbread) and there isn't a lot of choice for ringtones, alarms, ... so I would add some mp3 but..
I tried whit several apps (ringdroid, ringtone editor, ...) and I can't find my mp3 on the sdcard (i tried to put it in /sdcard , in /sdcard/media/audio/ringtones, in /sdcard/music(/audio)/ringtones, in /sdcard/ringtones and some others way). I also tried whit .ogg files but nothing.
I ask to google and find some tips, but they didn't work neither..
someone know how can I do it?
thanks
cya
No need of an app to do that : if you copy your audio files in /sdcard/media/audio/(alarms, notifications or ringtones), they will normally be usable the same way as the ones in /system/media/audio/(alarms, notifications or ringtones)
It works for me on Desire under Oxygen 2.0 RC7.
I also tried this way, but it did not work..

From the native music player you can set it as ringtone.

I tried that way as soon as I saw your post, but it did not work neither..
Actually I find out that I can't add music on the music player.. I don't know why.. I also tried to set as ringtone mp3 and ogg files from astro file manager, I can see the menu option, but I can't select the option!
I think about it and maybe I did a mess when I restore my backup whit mybackup pro (I restore also home config and settings who comes from another rom).. now I'm trying to reflash the rom and I will see...
erase sd card?
Nope.. I reflashed oxygen, and now I'm trying redux, and I still have this problem..
obviously the problem come from my desire, probably form my sdcard, but I don't know what I can do to fix that things..
I also noticed last night that I've a similar problem with the image gallery, the app can't find any image on my sd card, but I've a lot of it..
If I erase my sd card (backing up data apps) can I just put it back in the phone or there is things to do?
i am on stock froyo.i hv deleted some songs.but my music player is still showing them.there are multiple copies of one song in the list.i hv tried everything.cleared data cache for music app but no luck.
can anyone help me?
Use root explorer and go here data/data/com.android.provider.media/databases.
Delete all files with "external" name in database folder. Restart your phone and a new database will be created base on your SDcard (music) content. will take some little time for the creating of new database, so be cool..
thanks for the tip dude.but m not rooted.m on stock froyo.
You need to root the phone. Quite easy though..
Step applied the same on froyo or even gingerbread.

Hello,
My music player doesn't detect the new music I copied from my pc to my sdcard.
If I open the music player I only see the old music, but not the new music I recently copied to my mobile.
I already delete "data" by going to Settings/Apps and rebooted my mobile multiple times, but it still doesn't detect my new music.
I put the new music files to /music on my card, like the other files and the files aren't broken or sth like that. Normal mp3 files with id3 tags.
Can someone help me?
I'm running the latest CM9 on my Wildfire S.
What music app is that? Is that the one that comes in the ROM?
I suggest you try Apollo or the Google Play music app.
I'm using the stock cm9 music app,
already tried apollo and googlemusic app but without any success
I have the same problem on the Alpha1. Is it a bug? The sd card not reindexing media files after a remount from the PC?
aah, good to hear that I'm not the only one with this problem here
yes, I'm running the alpha1, too.
maybe you are right *se-nsei. and it's a bug.
Any idea how to fix it?
I'm really get tired of listening to the same music over and over again
I have no problem with that im using google play.
Fc when im using stock cm9 music but the problem its not about music library.

Try this app
for a temporary fix use this app! It worked for me!
Rescan SD Card!
The "rescan sd" app works. I think its a good solution for now. I hope it will be fixed with the next Update. Hope that the ums bug will be fixed soon, too.
Thanks for your answers guys
I think Dev Tools has a media scanner that you can run which SHOULD update the music library and gallery but haven't tested that with music on cm9 yet (Worked on cm7).
Solution is here !!!!!!!!!!!!
do three things ,
1. go into settings >> apps >> all apps >>appollo >> clear app data and cache
2. reboot the phone
3. thank me , if it worked .... which it's must gonna be , enjoy

It is more than two years since the last post, the author must have found a way by now. Anyway the OP said he tried what you proposed in his first post.

Hi all.
Today started a weird problem on my desire (running RSK rom). I have to say that nothing was changed or done to the phone for at least a week other than updates for downloaded apps. Suddenly the galleries (the htc one and the android one) and music programs like winamp or even the gmail and phone don't play the ringtones or music. BUT... the files are still on the SD card and are even working with the same apps like the winamp and galleries if I browse the SD card and pick the file and choose to show or play it. So what the heck is wrong? The files are not corrupted and the access to the SD card is possible through the phone itself.
I tried using SDRefresh or whatever it is called (the SD card refresh app) and it didn't help.
Any advice?
Have you tried this?
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tristarapps.tools.galleryrefresh
Or maybe delete data and cache for gallery in manage apps. Otherwise backup data and reflash the rom.

It is fixed. As it seem, ROM manager had a bug that placrd nomedia or nodata (forgot the name) in the parent directory when it updated. They fixed the bug and released an update. I deleted the file and everything is back to normal.
thanks for trying to help!
Hi, cant find the answer to this anywhere so hoping someone can help. When downloading mp3's ,photo's etc how can I set phone to give me the option to download to sd card rather than system storage, only "path" available is to the phone? Thanks in advance for any help.
You need to go into the app manager and move that app to the SD card
I've done that today with my PowerAmp app for music; but also for Google Photo's etc...
At least I think that's how I did it!
Hope this helps
Thanks for that but not quite what I'm looking for, have app2sd installed which moves the apps fine, my headache is how to set download path to SD card instead of system storage for things like mp3 downloads etc. Had Sammy's and an oppo 7a previously and they always gave an option of where you downloaded file to. Thanks again for your answer though
Ah; I get what you mean now. Sorry, got the wrong end of the stick!
I haven't figured that out yet; I've just moved to my Swift from a Galaxy Note 5, so still working my way through it!
But it is running 5.1.1 so maybe google your issue and android and see what the net comes up with!
Have you asked on here as well: http://forum.cyanogenmod.org/
Update to cyanogen 13 today has sorted the problem out now
