Has anyone ever run into this problem? I'm on code name android and i was going to transfer some movies to my phone from my computer. Well Windows explorer crashed and i couldn't transfer anything. I tried multiple times and Windows explorer crashed every time. After that when i went into my file explorer all my movies and pictures were deleted on my sd card and internal memory! I ran checks on my computer and no viruses or corrupt system files were detected. Could this be a problem with my Rom or is this a Windows problem...maybe something to do with the mtp transfer method? Anyone else ever have this experience? If it helps I'm running ktoonz kernel at stock settings.
Thanks

I was trying to move my nandroid backup files off my phone's onboard memory btu everytime I attempt to do so windows explorer freezes and crashes, anyone know what the issue could be?
Have you installed KIES?
Yeah, unless it somehow became un-installed since I rooted... I will try when I'm back at my computer.

Also, are you transferring these files to external or internal? If external, have you formatted the card?
I have an ATT SGS3 and today I flashed 4.2. Everything is cool, but due to multiple flashes over the past few days, I had several (0) folders on my SD card. I know this is due to 4.2 having the option to have multiple users. Since I had like 6 (0) folders, I moved my main folder back to the newest folder. The problem? While I can see the folder in Root Explorer and CWM, it does not show up when I plug it into the computer via USB. I only see one folder and nothing else.
How can I fix it so I can see this folder when plugged into the computer? The way it is now, my personal ringtones, music and everything else are not being found as they are not being seen.
Thanks for any help!!
I'm on 4.2 and both of my cards show up on my pc. I don't have the (0) folder you speak of either. Closest I have to that is usbdisk(0)
Look on one of your cards for a folder with the name of "0". The content of that folder is everything previously on your internal sd.
I can see the folder on root explorer but can't when I am hooked up to computer.

I just found that my contents of the internal sd card is showing up as the extenal sd when hooked to the computer. Crazy. But I can't move the files to the comptuer like this. How can I get this back to the way it should be? I want the internal contents to show up as the internal contents!

This is a known issue in 4.2 ROMs at the moment. Assuming you flashed CM or AOKP, you can follow this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2052337
Problem: USB MTP connection failing to transfer files between device and computer. Windows states the device may be disconnected, when in fact it is not. Another issue with 4.2 is sometimes it does not show your complete folder contents, it will also swap Internal Storage and SD Card folders.
There is no known solution at this time. (None that I have found anyway, and trust me I've been searching for the past 2 days non stop. Really looking forward to cm10.1, but every time I update I get the above issues. I'm waiting for them to be sorted out before I use it as a daily ROM.)
Hi. I have some files that are not being shown in the external SD card when I view on the PC. I checked the files through root explorer and its there, its just not showing up on my PC? Please help. Thank you.

I would say that this is problem with pc. What system are you using? Do you have "show hidden files" option on (just google it for your system if you don't know how to turn it on)? Is there "." at the begining of the file like ".xxxx.yyy"?

Hmm. It seems that the only files that can be viewed on the external SD card on PC is the files I put on their from the PC. The files I downloaded on my phone are not being shown. Hidden files are shown on windows and it still cannot see them. The files are just zips apks and images, I don't understand why they are not showing up. tried on another computer, same result. Hmm.

Have you tried formatting the card and then coping files from phone to sd?
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
I don't own this phone. But I had the same problem with the s2. T989. All I did was power off the phone and took the SD card off let it sit for awhile then put it back in and the PC started showing everything again....hope this helps. I'm running slim bean.

Unmount and remount sdcard in the storage settings. The PC drivers are really pretty crappy. I've seen it happen quite frequently.

If i remove the card from the phone and use a usb adapter to connect it to the pc the files copy ok.Obviously i don't want to unmount the card from the phone everytime i need to transfer a file to the pc can anyone help me with this
Maybe a formatting error. Sounds ridiculous I know... pointless getting technical, so just wipe the card and see if that fixes your issue
Hi stevepork
I just tried that and its just the same. i was wondering if it might have something to do with kitkat 4.4.2 which the phone is running.

Are you completely stock? Have you frozen or removed any apps/services while trying to debloat?
Hi
The only app i stopped was mcafee security as i had kaspersky mobile security ive had the phone about a month.i tried it again this afternoon and it moved the folder but not the file inside .small files such as srt files will move as well

What is your USB settings ? PTP or MTP ?
Hi
It's mtp when on ptp i just see an image of a camera and have access only to the photos on the phone
What you you see when you right-click on the sdcard file from the computer to show its properties ?
properties doesnt come up only open and explore
Maybe you need this: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=nextapp.sdfix
As I've only had it a month i don't want to root the phone as it'll void the guarantee which I'd have to do to use the app

Dont worry about warranty when rooting.
There is a way to get everything back to normal.

I'm using the folder mount app to move the files to external sd.
I can move files from internal storage to sd card but i cant get them off the sd card without removing it from the phone and connecting it separately to the pc
it's the security measures that prevent unauthorized access to the sdcard. if you don't want to root, you can move your movies to the dcim folder then you can access it under PTP
Thanks alot for that i just tried it and it works a bit slow but better than keep having to take the back of the phone off and on and unmounting the sd card.do you have a link to rooting the g3 I'd like to look into it sp long as its fairly simple and can be reversed
Read this thread for rooting, the unroot method is explained in the second post : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2821000
