Alright so when I take a photo, it saves just fine, and stays on it, But when I take the card out and than put it back in, they're erased for ssome reason. It just sstarted doing it yesterday, every picture I have saved from previous times stay there, only the new ones get erased. And its not only pictures i take. If I download an image off the web, when I pop my SD out than in, those get deleted to. So far videos dont get erased though. Anyone know why this is happening? I just formatted it now to troubleshoot but that didn't work
I'm running Syndicate frozen 1.2 and genocide kernel.
Thanka.

I just got a new class 10 sd card and I'm having a similar problem. I had to reflash SRF 1.2 for testing reasons and photos between flash were lost as well.
Same here, at first I thought it was EF02, still havnt narrowed it down. For me it happens when I copy ROMs, tweaks.zipz to the sdcard from pc, but what fixes it for me is just clicking/selecting the file, then unmount, it works...

Is everyone using Genocide 2.0 kernel?

Make sure you ALWAYS unmount your phone on the pc and turn off usb storage on your phone before unplugging. Prevents data corruption.

Are the photo files going into the LOST.DIR folder on the sd card or are they just disappearing?

Doesnt go into the LOST.DIR folder. And the space frees up on the SD card.
So its officially only doing it to the photo format files. I formatted my SD and than put everything back on it, put it in my phone, it scanned and it all showed up just fine.
Problem occurs when I take the SD out and than put it back in, the media scanner re-scans it and now every picture was deleted. All the videos, music files, zips, etc all stood on the SD card.
Just wondering why the heck only the images are being tossed...

I read somewhere that there is a 2gb limit per folder so maybe make sure those folders you are saving to is less than 2gb.
Hope that is the problem, cause I don't have that problem yet - I have a lot of different folders like birthdays, family and friends, automobiles, videos, etc.
Good luck, keep us posted!
I'm thinkin it may be somewhat my fault afterall. Whenever I normallu remove my SDcard I just pop it out without going to settings and unmounting ffirst. If I yo to settings aand unmount before I take the card out now the ffiles stay on it so far. I guess thats my "fix" for it if that keeps working correctly.
So anyone having this problem, unmount in settings/SD card and storage before removing the card and see it the files you'd normally lose stick.

I followed those rules. Also had to reflash the rom when a theme I was testing got stuck in a boot loop. Pics I had saved before thereflash disappeared after the reflash. I've formatted the card twice, as well.
Edit : K0nane says format using windows, someone phone format causes corruption.

Are u anybody u guys having this problem on the stock sd card? Maybe it had something to do with whatever sd card younguys have. I have the stock card and I have never had any pics disappear on me and I've taken my card out quite a few times.

I am not using stock card but a class 4 card. Over the 4th of july weekend I had Google services error, gapps error, a popup saying I had to wipe data partition it was corrupted, pictures all got wiped out...in 3 days. Had to Odin 3 times and only twice ever before that. At first I thought it was Genocide 2.0, then I thought maybe the ROM I was using, now I have no clue but no issues either. Hope maybe it was an Android System deal and they fixed it...but I lost all of my good wallpapers damnit! Lol

Why does my phone give me these weird "insufficient storage" pop ups when I have free memory. I barely have any apps on my phone and I just went to update tb and it said that I have no room. Also when I move apps to sd card most of them work but some of them give me this message as well even tho I know they're lying because I know I have free memory on both the phone and sd card but I get this message and they don't let me install or move apps. Anyone have this problem before? And I've seeen it on different roms so I don't think a reflash will fix it.

First, what program is giving the error, and what segment of the memory is it trying to write to. If you are trying to write to the SD card and there is no room there, then you might have a problem with that. On the other hand, it may be another section.
Additionally, you may have downloaded a program that wants to allocate a very large chunk of space for itself. More than you have. Some games download their data when you first load them. They often check for sufficient space first. They can use well over half a gigabyte, so if your SD Card doesn't have that space free, it will error out.
I know wht you're talking about but I don't recall titanium backup needing an extra couple hundred Mbs to work lol.
Its happening with every freaking app I'm trying to download off the market or install off my sd card. And even the apps I'm trying to simply update off the market.
And I have like 4gbs free on my sd card and 500 mb free on the phones storage.

There's been several ways of going about remedying this, there's the odin to stock method, the factory reset, and the clear market data method. I've personally only tried the latter 2, and they work temporarily in my experience.

DONT REFLASH... lol titanium backup odex file is corrupt, remove it from system/app and uninstall TB, then download again
What hsppens is there are fragments of the old programs still In data that screw up the reinstall. Search with root explorer and nuke those bits. For instance if youtube app fails, search for youtube and a list of all files with that in the name will pop up. Nuke those files (don't forget to make r/w). Other option is odin and clean imstall.

yeah I got that error too
Is there a app that can automatically clean old left behind files like 1click cleanup.
Hi all, I too had that problem before when I was on stock EC05 BML and had little space on internal memory. I could not upgrade Titanuim so I got so mad that I started getting into custom roms with MTD to have more space. Also helps if you get a class 10 32gb card.
I saw that the July 15, Titanium try to download from market it failed because not enough space and I was tripping but I used the lucky and it cleaned the messed up left behind odex, then install was coolio.
I also get sometimes could not parse error on .apk and never could figure it out. I guess they are not compatible with my phone since they were not downloaded from market...

No problem, just helping out. have fun
Titanium Backup is one of the most useful programs to come along for people who root and flash. It is well worht a few bucks ($6) to guarantee working updates, support the developer, freeze apps, batch work, and to save all your data. It pains me to see a program discussed here whose sole purpose is to cheat the developer out of a few bucks.

I just had to scroll back and re- read the whole thread. The second time around I saw the app you refered to by name. After Google searching it I realized what you are talking about. I agree with your statement and am a proud owner of Titanium Backup.
He says it will get rid of all 'corrupt data'?? I don't understand...?
Sent from my SPH-D700 using xda premium
I think that this is sometimes caused by unnecessarily re-flashing the gapps when doing a dirty upgrade upgrade on cm or aokp. It also happened to me after advance-restoring data on aokp. Duplicity seems to be the main connection here. Clean installs are good for the epic's soul.

I've always used ROM manager to make, rename or delete a nandroid. The app shows that there are no backups but when I go into CWM it shows there are 6! I tried to save my current setup and was unable to because there is no available memory.
Those 6 are clogging up potential available space does anybody know how else I can delete them?? I searched a bunch of files in Root Explorer but couldnt find anything. I want to check out TWRP because I hear a lot of hype about it but need to get this situation dealt with first.
Any pointers will be greatly appreciated

So ever since I started modding this phone with custom ROMs, I have had an issue with almost every ROM freezing just a bit when installing/updating apps. It all started after installing Chemistry ROM, and then has been happening on every ROM I've been on since then (Paranoid, TPR, Goodness). It happens right after the app finishes installing, my phone is useless and frozen for a good 5-10 seconds. Has anyone had that issue and possibly know a fix?

There are lots of posts where wonky sd cards create some strange behavior.
I know there are some posts with the correct steps to backup your sd card contents, format it and then copy the contents back to it.
might be worth a shot.
I hope you get it fixed soon

Maybe your partition got messed up. I know it seems like a PITA but did you try to Odin back to stock and reset partition? Not sure if you need a special file for the reset of the partition though? Maybe someone can answer that before you proceed.
I would say to back up your internal and external sdcards and then reformat each one twice...then go into recovery, wipe everything and reflash your rom
I know its sounds like a long and annoying process, but in the long run your sdcards will perform better even if they arent the source of this issue
Here's a short video. You can see how I install the app and then it freezes and then all of a sudden "snaps back" to what I was doing.

Try running some read/write benchmarks on your internal sd. The transfer speeds may just be slow and thats whats causing it
What type of sdcard do you have? Size and class please

Haha no problem, just download any app that will test your transfer speeds (read and write) a couple times, if quadrant tell you that then use that
What i mean when i say this is not that it will fix it, but it'll tell you if the transfer component is the issue behind why you're experiencing lag when installing apps. You can then proceed to fix it by reformatting your internal and external sdcards
OK so I downloaded Antutu and ran a benchmark for Database IO and SD Card Read/Write and got a score of 555. Is that ok? What do I do now?
Honestly have no idea what I'm doing or what I'm looking for. How do you format like you said?

Judging by the date, maybe something weird happened while you were using twrp or cwm?
Never seen that before.
What rom are you using? Have you used the file manager from recovery at all?
Also, did you intentionally put the Titanium Backup folder inside the DCIM folder? If not the something msy be really screwy.
Maybe that has something to do with it.
Keep an eye on it too. Check how many of those are there now, and see if the number changes.
