Hi guys,
Some of my photos on my Desire HD are becoming corrupted. I'm running the stock sense UI on Android 2.3 and using the native camera app. Ive replaced the SD card twice bit still having the same.problem. Its not all my photos, just some of them.
Anyone else having this problem? Anyone know how to fix it?
Thanks
Corrupt photo are in landscape mode? In my old samsung i solved this after rom deep reset
I had the same problem not only for photos but with videos too, but it was my sdcard faulty, i bought a sandisk 16gb, worked for a while and after 3 months started to go crazy. I putted back the stock samsung 8gb and the problem gone.
Try to reformat yout sdcard or try a different brand.
This happened on the original 8gb SD card, a 32gb sandisk card and now a 32gb Kingston card. All have been formatted but not changed the problem. Still not sure what is causing the problem.
Its one of 3 Problems (from least to worst)
1) HTCCamera.apk in your build has an inherent bug in it.
2) Your SD Card is wonky (Format it using a tool called "SD Formatter" - by the SD Standards Consortium)
3) (possibly the worst) Theres a problem with the camera module (hardware) in the phone itself.
it could also be that the SD drive itself is faulty. Try taking the card out and blowing a bit of compressed air into the slot, it might have accumulated dust or something
I had this issue a while back, reason then, was a faulty, crappy Kingston SD card. Once I replaced it with a SanDisk, I haven't had any issues ever since.

Hi,
I am using dopod 818pro. But whenever i use a 4gb(mainly kingstone SD memory card) memory card, it shows, "no memory card installed". But i can use 2gb memory card (any brand).
My config is as follows-
windows mobile 6.1 professional
processor- OMAP850-195MHz
memory- 50.02 mb
ROM version- 7.0.0.7 WWE
ROM DATE- 7/5/8
RADIO VERSION- 02.19.21
RAM size-64mb
So please help me to use 4 GB memory card.
SDHC
The HTC prophet doesn't support SDHC cards (over 2 Gig)!
i'm using non sdhc 4gb card from transcend. make sure your card is not sdhc...
oh yes, but you still need a driver
hey man, if you have a normal SD card with 4GB, it still will not just work ,you needed a driver of some sort, sorry, I had it, but changed my computer some months ago. Maybe someone else has it?
do you?? i just put the card in & my prophet recongnised it.
SD
I used to have MMC and I thought the disable power management would resolve my problem of getting my files disappearing from the card if the path 2 or more folders deep, but when I changed the card to a normal SD (2GB), I had the same problems happening sometimes (but not as frequently as before), but I'm getting another (harder) problem now. I'm saying harder because this seems to be very hard to track because it happens when it wants!!
sometimes the card works for several days without any issue, but sometimes I get a blank card. even though when I look at the status I see the used space and the free space, but when I open it with resco or file explorer it's just blank.
and I even got a worse problem (fortunately it happened only one time yet). since I set the ie and opera cash to the card, these programs created their temp folder on the card again, but everything else was totally erased! I used a recovery software to get my data back!!
as I said, it happened once, but the usual problem is I just see nothing on the card until I shut down, and boot my prophet again. and sometimes it doesn't work until I do this several times.
I think I've looked everywhere to find a solution for my problem, but I didn't find any real solution for it. I've tried several roms, several cards, always getting the same problem. I don't think it's a hardware issue because of its nature. I mean how could it be a hardware issue if the data disappears without even touching my phone? if there is a hardware issue I don't think the card would be recognized at all! or (at least) it won't be recognized after I move it (causing the weak or loose contacts - if any - to disconnect) however, I don't think it's true, because the contacts are clean and tight, and like all HTC devices, the SD slot is high quality.
if anyone can offer a real solution to my problem, then I'll say he/she is the one who enabled me get the full of my HTC Prophet!
So thank you in advance. whoever you are!
Hi I had this phone for while and bought the sandisk Ultra 32GB class 10 sd card when I got this awesome phone. However lately my phone was acting strange. For past 4 days my phone will randomly unmount SD card and notify me that it got disconnected. When I turn on the screen then it will shortly mount the SD card and does not show these problem. Not only that these is happening consistently and keeping my phone awake and draining my battery as well. I don't have picture with me since I format my whole phone and SD card but this will happen at least 20 to 30 times in a hour.
I used to use Saurom Project Hybird 1.3.2 before and I format everything, from TWRP, and installed CleanRom ACE 4.5 but it is still happening with same problem.
Is there any way to fix these problem?
Same here

I have the same problem with a 32gb San disk, after searching all day the only conclusion I came up with is that sd card is going bad and needs to be replaced preferably for one that is not a SanDisk. I guess they are not compatible
Thanks. I was hoping that I didn't had to do that. Anyway do you have any other brand that is good?
I guess your best bet would be going with a Samsung sd card just to avoid having problems in the future.
I'm having the same problem it is not your SD card or at least I don't think so I read a different XD a thread for hey note 2 on a different carrier it was over 17 pages long of people having the exact same issue some say that the SanDisk 32 they are so then and that put in a piece of paper behind them will solve the problem but I'm not finding that word besides I find it funny it only does this when my phone is in sleep or when I'm in a phone call it is very annoying I currently am being told I have a blank SD card and sometimes later it may just work for no reason

If you're getting heavy Media Server battery usage with the unmounts, it's could be a bad media file on your SD card crashing the Media Server and causing the unmounts.
I deleted podcasts, videos, and mp3s off of my SD card and the error went away. A clean format of the card should also work.
I dont think that was my case. I format the sd card and keep it empty and mount the sd card and it was still having the problem. However when I change my sd card to my old one the error when away. I guess I got bad sd card.
To make a long story short, I took some irreplaceable pictures today that disappeared.
I have my camera saving to my 64gb memory card. I took a few pictures and a couple of panoramas and they ended up showing up glitchy and useless.
They didn't appear in the gallery with the exception of a few images.
It looked odd.
I rebooted the phone and tried to go into the gallery and they just weren't there. The previews showed up momentarily and then they vanished.
Now when I try to take a photo to go to my external memory, it works fine. It didn't pre-reboot.
Is there a method of:
A: Recovering my lost 10-15 images.
B: Ensuring that this doesn't happen in the future.
For the record, my card seems to be working fine. Music on it loads up quickly as well as any other images that I loaded onto it. Files open and there is zero lag. I don't suspect that the card is corrupted or anything.
Thanks guys.

You could try something like Recuva: https://www.piriform.com/recuva
I successfully used that to restore files deleted from microSD cards a few years back.

I'm unfortunately on a Mac. Guess I'll boot into boot camp and install it and give it a go.
I hope the pictures actually existed as files though and not some cached object.
Update:
Overnight, the saving issue arose again. I'm forced to use internal storage when using my camera.
I've seen this problem before. So SD cards don't work well with Samsung devices. I bought a Samsung SD card and never seem this problem again. I recommend you do the same.

I wish I wasn't broke :/
I'm using a SanDisk 64gb. Guess I've gotta dig up some cash and get a Samsung.
I don't see how this is an issue though.
What is your card formatted in? My current is in exfat. I'm thinking the format may be an issue.
It may be a kitkat issue. Google "kitkat SD card write". Root users are using a fix that sets permissions so the sd card can be written to by all apps as expected.

Right before I came across your post, I found some info on the kitkat issue with sd cards. I'm guessing that's what's causing this problem. Odd because it's the default Samsung camera that's messing up.
Oh, how I miss root. I just hope we get root soon. I'm pretty close to selling this phone and hopping on Tmobile.
I had this problem happen with very VERY irreplaceable pictures, on my backpacking trip to china, one of the most irreplaceable pictures of my entire life was taken, appeared glitchy in gallery, phone reset and it was gone.
after taking out the SD card, and doing many deep scans to try and recover the deleted pictures, it seems the pictures arent there, which leads me to believe it somehow tried to save it in internal memory (which cant be mounted as a drive, so cannot be recovered).
if you can somehow flash an older version of android (like 2.xx) you can mount your phone as a drive, and then attempt to recover deleted data from your internal SD..
yeah all i can say is ,,|,, you samsung.
I too have the same problems as the OP. And I am on SAMSUNG micro SD card! Guess it is one of those first batch gremlins?
However, I think the problem has gone away after I switch on the image "preview" option. Give it a try.
I had the same issue with a 64gGB SanDisk micro SD card. The camera would seem as if it was taking pictures but nothing was actually saved; they just shows as corrupted files in the gallery. I lost countless irreplaceable images from our honeymoon because of this. Once I switched to a 32GB Samsung micro SD card I never had the issue again, also saving the pictures directly to the internal memory solved the problem. I use the SD card for music as well so it has to be something with the phone writing to the SD card. From what I've read it's a issue with the compatability with samsung and non samsung sd cards for some reason.

Never had this issue with any of my Samsung phones (S2, S4, and now the Note 4). I'm using a SanDisk Class 10 32GB. I'd recommend pulling the files off the SD and doing a format. Download the App SD Maid as well for routine maintenance on your SD. Good luck.
My 64GB SanDisk SD card was giving unexpected unmounted errors, so I picked up a Samsung 64GB SD card. The unexpected unmount errors went away, but now I have this problem. Pictures are not saving to the SD card correctly. Sometimes it says media not found. Others the preview/thumbnail looks fine but the full view is just grey.
I am going to try saving to internal memory and manually moving to the SD card as I run out of room.

Hi guys,
So the other day i go into the Gallery app and notice the photos that have been taken by the camera appear to be corrupt.
It is strange because it appears that the most recent pictures are viewable but majority of the older ones are not. All other album folders that i have created are fine.
Has anyone else experienced this issue? If so were you able to restore those images through the phone?
I'm sure if I connect the MicroSD card to a pc and use data recovery tools i can still retrieve them. I just find it kind of odd that it only happened to one particular album.
Images are being saved to a Sandisk MicroSD card.
Please see photos of what im referring to.
i've had 2 Sandisk microSD cards fail on me before. I read somewhere that sandisk cards is more prone to failure in samsung phones. Pity because my sandisk CF cards for my camera all work flawlessly. I went with Samsung 64GB cards. Last time they were on sale at amazon for pretty cheap.
It did that with a video of mine but it became normal a bit later. Kinda strange.
i had a similar thing happen to me and I had to format the extsd and it fixed whatever the issue was.
I'm having the exact same issue!
I just moved my SD card over from my note 3. Was working fine on that phone. Pictured look corrupt at random now but may appear back later on.
I'm gonna try backing up all my stuff and formatting.
Ya i find that very unusual. From my experience with external storage, when it becomes corrupt, most times all content is not readable. I guess im just going to have to do data recovery on the corrupt files, format it and transfer them back on to.
Same issue here. Noticed this a few weeks ago (2 or 3) and just deleted the blank images. Hasn't come up since then but I'll keep monitoring it.
Had this happen without the sd card...
Strongly suggest you hard reset if it happens on the device.
I had that happen on an SD card once and then ultimately everything got corrupted. Copy everything off it, Format it and copy back on.

Hi all,
I am getting very worried with this LG g4.
Last December I had a big issue where I was taking pictures and saving in my sd card, and when the card got a bit full(not totally) all photos taken from a certain point in time were corrupted (normal size but no thumbnail and I could not open them anywhere), as conclusion, could copy existing, could not delete with external software, or in any other day.
End up complaining to amazon and they have sent me a new 64sd card, this time from Samsung.
So far so good, until yesterday where I took some pics and realised the last ones were not appearing as thumbnails. My thought: the same issue again. Decided to restart phone...
Error no sd card can be mounted, it is corrupted!!
Restarted again, tried on another phone, still corrupted. I cant open or see any data from it. It says I have to format?
I don't know if I will lose all my data, and I am thinking about presenting a formal complaint to LG. It must be the phone!??
Anyone with the same issue?
Thanks Tiago
It might be your phone or just a couple bad SD cards. I had an issue with the SD card they provided with the promotion, but it was a different issue. There was no data loss. It just prevented writing to the SD or deleting. I had no problem copying files off the card. Since my 1st SD card, I bought a SanDisk Extreme 64GB. It has worked flawlessly for months.
