Hy , i have a problem with my wildfire. Whatever files i put on the phone , or pictures i made ..... i mean everything i pun on the card , and then try to download them in the pc , they will not appear there , i can see the older files but the new one .... no. :| Just after reseting the phone the files appear. This is very annoying because i usually make photos and then download them. And i can't just restart the phone each time i make a picture
You can't see them on your Removable Disk Drive when connecting it to the PC or when your browsing with your phone( aka gallery )?
If you can't see the photos when connecting the phone to pc it might be a virus. I recall having problems loading photos from any folder even though I had no viruses, it was just some random error that made thumbnails load very slow even though the system was snappy and seemed to have no problem whatsoever.
It may also be an sd-card error or something and I would suggest to try backing up the files you need and then format it ( fat32 )
Re-add them and check if the problem persists.
ps: Don't use a fast format, let it do a normal one to delete all the data.

My mda is dead my display flatcabel is broken...
now i got to recover my contacts that i have saved on my sd card.
any idea how to restore them on pc?
Thanks
If you saved them on your SD card then just put the card into a card reader and copy them to your pc. Another thing, even though your display is dead, you may still be able to access the phone over activesync if it still boots.
I did already hard reset cause in first i meant that it was something wrong with software...
it destroyed all data on phone exept on sd card, i copied backup contacts file on pc but i dont have an idea how to open contacts on pc (is there somme kind of viewer or maybe virtual pocket pc for Xp)? i hear active sync signal when i connect Mda via usb but i dont see anything so i am not able to install anything or to do synchronization. And i still need my contacts...
Help
I've read where you can open the file that had your contacts in it up in a hex editor and it will allow you to view your contacts. Other than that, I don't know of any program that will open it up normally though. If all you're needing to do is see them, then that method should be ok. If you need to do more with them though you may want to explain what program you backed them up with and see if anyone else has any ideas.
By the way, there are programs that allow you to view what you would see on your phone on your PC. If you're still getting a good sync then using one of them should work. Here's the link to one I've tried that works well. - http://www.mymobiler.com/
hey guys
I had a bunch of pics that I received via MMS and I needed to use, so I just long click on it and selected to save do sd card. But when I connect the phone to the pc on mass storage mode, I can't find them anywhere.
So I installed the app SaveMMS and saved all the pics to a folder with the same name. Still nothing showed up when I connect the phone to my PC.
Using ASTRO, I can see all the pictures on the download folder and I can also access the SaveMMS folder (and actually some other folders that I cant see from my PC).
I tried to copy to somewhere else and even that didnt work.
I ended up emailing myself the pics...
Any idea on whats happening?
I got root and im using opendesire with a partitioned sd card (and no, there's no pictures on the ext partition).
many thanks
Does any file names or folders on your phone look like, for example, this ".hello"
If so, get rid of the full stop at the start of the name via Astro, as it will not show up on your computer
Thread moved to Q&A.
delete my post
thanks for the reply
the first thing I checked was for hidden folders, and it wasnt that.
the folders ended up showing up on the desktop as well, out of nowhere.
but it just seemed some random, dont know what was the issue.
This is usually because you are using a2sd which makes the SD card do strange things. Changes are only actually saved to the card for the computer to see when restarting the phone
The problem is well documented, and a fix have been made which should fix it
Well, its really weird.
But better weird with A2SD than normal without it ;p
I have deleted all my pictures and videos by accident is there anyway i could recover them as i cant use a program on pc as it mounts as mtp and they dont recognize it.
i am on LiQUIDSMOOTH-v1.1-Maguro rom if that is of any help.
Thanks
Hopefully you have google plus installed with instant upload on, if you do then they're on your google account and you can get them back. If not your sol... Sorry.
You can maybe mount your sdcard and try to un delete files with a disk recovery program but its not a guarantee since it works by read data blocks that are marked as deleted aka writable.
how will i mount it as a sd card as when i plug it into pc it just sees it as mtp and cant see it with recovery programs.
and i dint set up the google plus instant upload so no way that way.
And i havent used the phone really since deleted everything so dont think anything will have been written to them parts so maybe more chance of getting them back

You can't mount it as USB Mass Storage. Its all one partition, so it can't be done. You've got MTP and PTP, that's it.
Everything is probably lost.
Set up Dropbox instant upload or Google+ instant upload for the future.
I never used this app but its worth a shot. I have used similar on a PC and it brought back files from 7 plus years ago. Tell us how it works cause these apps, while not used often are priceless and ill make not of it.

i have a lot of pictures taken from my phone in HDR mode, and that is verry important picture.
but there are one time, my ExtSDcard storage was full, so i move all my picture to Phone SDcard storage for a moment.
when i'm moving the Pictures, my Phone SDcard also full, and my phone was Lagging in couples minutes.
and after that, i saw in my Gallery the moved picture in my phone SDcard was not displayed, and there are error message "Load Failed". i cannot open the picture files in any File Explorer apps, and in my PC as well.
there are 16 pictures damaged in this case, and untill now i dont know how to recover it.
i have search alot information, but no one help me.
please anyone, if you know how to fix this problem, tell me..
i need your help, please,,,
is there anyone have same problem with me?
is there any solution?
please....
If the pictures were originally on your external SD card then you can run a data recovery app against it and if you haven't added any new files to the card since you did the deletion there's a pretty high chance they're still sitting there. Data is never deleted directly it's just marked as deleted (essentially) and then later files added to the card will overwrite any older data over time. I've never had to do this myself but Googling for free image recovery turns up quite a few results.
So I connected it to my laptop to clean up some of my files and folders and to transfer some things onto my pc.
I remember deleting some folder called Mogo-Audiance or something along those lines, as well as another folder that seemed to be unimportant. I try to then move some music files from the download folder into my Music folder (transferring within the phone at this point) but it says theres some error and it can't be moved. I rebooted and replugged tried again no avail. Then tried moving a picture from phone to the computer. Error message again. Reboot once more and this time when I go into MTP only two files remain: Android and Viber. I check my phone itself and all my photos/videos/music are gone. Apps still remain intact however. I already tried Stellar Phoenix Recovery but it won't detect my phone.
Very frustrated and have no idea how to proceed.....
I attached some screenshots showing empty phone folders on pc and phone itself as well as recovery program being unable to detect phone.

It cannot detect phone because it needs to Mount as USB mass storage device. No external storage= no UMS
You might be able to dump raw IMG somehow of storage and put on flash drive and try to recover... but takes lotta work.
Seems like you deleted something you shouldn't have. Take it as lesson learned to not just delete random files if you don't know what it is

I'm actually about to cry. The photos I had on there were invaluable to me, please explain that way that you said I might be able to get it back.

I'm sorry to hear that.
And also sorry to say I cannot help anymore than providing this information here:

As I said, it is a lengthy and maybe in depth process but MAY be possible. No guarantee.
I haven't ever had to try this tho so I cannot give any more or better info other than what is in that thread.
Just take your time, use Google for things you cannot understand(you may ask me or here in this thread also for clarification of some steps and if I can help I will) and try not to stress.
And one thing I will recommend for future use is to install G+ and turn on photo sync settings. I have this on. You get 15gb free storage for photos and will backup as you take pictures and videos OR whenever you tell it to.
Or you could use dropbox or similar as that also has a photo sync option available. These things are invaluable in terms of peace of mind for if situation like this ever occurs again.
