My media files on the external card are showing up twice. However, only one of each file actually works. The doubled music files don't play and the doubled pictures don't show anything.
I'm running infamous ics rom with venom kernel. I've searched and seen a couple comments on this but no solution. Anyone know how to fix this? Thanks!

I get this issue every now and then
Try this, it works for me
Go to
/data/data
Find and delete folder
com.android.providers.media
(don't worry it will recreate itself when you reboot)
Reboot.
good luck

I was transferring music to me phone, and I saw a file called "and me.destroying" and it's kinda worrying me. Should I delete it ASAP? And if known, what does it do?

What does your heart tell you to do? Lol I'm kidding.. Do you to think you down loaded any apps that would have something to do with it? Go through the file and see what's in it, see if you ecognize anything
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
Delete it. If an app needs it, it will just recreate it. No worries, people format sdcards all the time so no critical app data is on the removable storage unless you moved the app to the sdcard.

Perhaps you could copy it to your PC and share it so we might see what it is?
I deleted it earlier today. It seemed as if it appeared after installing a J2ME application, as part of the file name also included andme.

Problem: everytime i flash an AOSP based ROM, my pictures will not show up in google gallery(they show up in quickpic) and my music will not show in any music player ive tried.
Ive searched the whole file system for .nomedia files, there isnt one on the root of the storage.

Damn dude, sorry, but I stayed away from AOSP for several reasons, and the mixed up mount points drove me crazy. I dont think I ever got it workng 100%. Didnt really try maybe, I missed TW.

Thanks! At least I got some feed back. I ended up fixing it. But it took all day. I had to Odin back to stock, re root. Then format the phones SD card and the external SD card. Now she works beautifully!

Hi
I'm sorry if someone already asked this (tried searching but didn't find the exact same question).
Is it possible to set a default storage location for all apps downliads/pictures? I know how to do it in camera and some apps have a setting option for this. But I've uninstalled many apps (wallpapers etc) simply because I'm too frustrated with transferring files manually.
For example, my instagram saves pictures to device memory and it really bothers me...
Thanks a lot!

Thanks so much for the link. However, I'm not trying to move apps to sd card because I don't have that many apps. And I don't really want to root my device.
I want to set all app downloads to sd card. Some apps have a setting for that but some don't.
Thanks anyway!

You can use directory bind, but sorry still you needs root to use it.

What is changing to a new rom going to do for him? If his music is gone it's gone... Unless I'm missing something? Why isn't your music on your computer or somewhere else? How did you get it on your phone, lol? If it some where and you can't find it, pull everything from your storage places and put them on your PC and search both files with in your computer search index and see if you can find them... If they are there, then create a folder named /music and you will good to go. If they aren't there then get new music or however you got them there in the first place.

So i downloaded all of my musics whitin my device reason i never store music on my pc is because i barely do use it...
I guess i could do that too but i once remember i restored an backup and everything was in its place ? Its weird..
Also since i use various apps to get my music they are in different folders there js nothing inside my /music folder is this anything bad ?
I could download the music back also but takes quite a while + my lost game datas and precious images :/
Off topic : thoughts on the xperia t ? Im wanting to buy one..

I would start putting the music somehwere other then only on phone storage, just in case. I've accidentally wiped internal storage once, and I've had External sdcards go bad or just randomly out of no where lose all data in it. make a dropbox and do TiBu once a week and move them there your self with some type of file manager if you don't wanna pay the money for Titanium Backup pro. I also bet all your stuff is there you are just looking in the wrong places. What file manager are you using to look for your "lost stuff"?

list all the areas you are looking for the media... what is your recovery?
Aokp is awesome ROM. I dont mean to be rude but if you think those files are still there (in your phone) ;install different ROm or restore backup and pull al data from it. And wipe both internal and external cards. Amd install aokp and enter those files again via PC.

First of all sorry if this issue has already been addressed, I looked around could not find much on this issue, anyways I have been running deathstalker s3 for a while, I decided to try deathstalker s4 , it installed okay but the phone kept force closing any system app I tried to run , I reverted back to deathstalker s3 and my phone constantly displays low storage and says 330mb of free space, but in the settings > storage, it displays a lot of free space in the bar graph but none of it is useable, once again sorry if this has already been asked, any suggestions in the right direction would be helpful
Sent from my SGH-M919 using xda premium
I would format the external sd and the internal sd and do a complete wipe and re download the rom to your external sd and flash the newly download ed rom

Do you have any nandroid backup stored on the phone? Those take up lots of spaces. If not you might need to do a format as suggested.

Check /data/media/ you must have some hidden files stored there.
Thanks for the help all of you 100% in the right direction, now I'm a lot closer but I think something else is hidding files, now I'm at 4.62gb out of 9.62gb after deleting the the clockworkmod backups, once again thank you for everyone's input
