Need help: File names become CAPITAL when browsing in SD card???

When I copy some files or folders into my SD card, the names look just right on my computer. but when I put SD into my mobile phone and browse them, the names of some(not all of them) files/folders become capital.
I've tried XP and Win7, still the same.
For example: I copy two folders - conf and media - into my SD card, but they become CONF and MEDIA in my mobile.
How could this happen? Somebody can help me with this?

What is the output when you run "cat /etc/fstab" on your phone via command line?

thanks for replying.
I'm sorry I didnt make myself clear. this all happened in WM65, not in Android.
maybe I've post it in the wrong place ^_^

*HELP* ALL "SD card" Data lost!

Ok, so I don't know what happened, but when i went to mount my phone with mtp, everything is gone. I have the camera folder but no pictures. I've lost all of my pictures, downloaded apks, videos... Everything. Someone please help me trouble shoot this. I tried to run programs like Pandora Recovery but since the GN doesn't mount to the computer with a drive letter, those types of file recovery programs aren't working.
Thanks in advance for the support.

Can you give us any more information about anything that you did or that happened between the last time you had the files and now? Also, are the files still on the phone, just not visible from the computer, or are you sure that they have been deleted from the phone?

Have you used/installed to your phone a program like ES File Explorer or Astro to browse the SD card folder to see if anything is listed there?

I even looked on Astro & Root Explorer.
Only folders that were left are empty but are "Android" "DCIM" "Notifications" "Pictures" "tmp"
Even my clockwork folder with my back up is gone.
Last thing I did was make a back-up then I wanted to copy over a new Rom to the phone so when i plugged it it, that's when it appeared that everything was gone.
I had apps and all that but what is killing me is the pictures of my son that I've been saving...

[Q] Storage missing/partly hidden

Hello guys,
I have a bigger problem I hope you can help me with...
My internal storage is somehow messed up. This has effects on MTP and on some apps like the stock camera.
When accessing my internal storage by MTP from PC, only a few folders and files are visible. In contrast, if I list the content of "/mnt/sdcard" or "/storage/sdcard0" they show all my files and folders as one would expect. Also, files visible on the PC are inside this path and even when i copy a file from the PC, it is placed here.
The more serious problem is, that some apps are not able to find their files and folders inside die storage anymore. As an example, the camera app asks me to insert a sd card before taking a picture and Winamp doesn't find my music anymore.
What i tried so far:
Copying files from and to storage with Dropsync, FolderSync and ES Explorer: works without problems
I checked the rights of the files with the terminal: nothing interesting there
I cleared my whole storage (thanks to Unlock procedure) and flashed a new Custom ROM
I drank a lot of coffee because it got late
Nothing worked.
Please help, Thanks!

So thats me again.
I finally found the correct allready existing post. In this thread user dlzinc describes that one has to fix the permissions for /data/media. Good to know that i was right with permissions, bad that i didn't go through with it in the first place.

[Q] Formatting MicroSD

I used the settings in my Note 2 to format my 32GB microsd card. when i view it in windows explorer, the only folder that has been created is the LOST.DIR. should it be creating a folder structure?
on my BlackBerry, whenever my card was formatted, the device would create the folder structure for music, videos, pictures, etc. I've already removed and reinserted the microsd card. Am I missing something?

you're missing the question and answer section

Thanks, I just checked there but still couldn't find my answer. Can't see a way to delete this thread, only edit, so if anyone is able to help out, it'd be appreciated.

Thanks....that worked for the camera! I tried launching the music player and video player, but no other folders are created.
Problems is, is that I have media to restore to the card but not sure if i should create the folders manually or what.
The reson i formatted it, is cause i took it straight from my Z10 to my Note 2 and wanted to clean up the folder structure. remove data, format, restore into new android folder structure. but didn't really work out

[Q] Can't Rename Copy or Write files to External SD card

Hi guys, my issue is that I've put a new sd card in 64Gb microSD. I've tried moving files across from internal to external and it just fails every time.
I've tried creating a folder separately on the external card, but once it's created I can't delete it, I can't rename it and I can't put any files in there. Can't even copy files into the sd card in general.
I did format the card on the phone itself. Also, now when I connect my device to the computer it doesn't even show up as a device in explorer.
All this seems to have happened after the 10g update.
Anyone know why this is happening or how to get around it, please? (This is happening with ES File Explorer)

If you're rooted there's an easy manual fix here:

I don't think that you should have to root your phone just to change files on your SD card. I had a G2 and I had to take it back for warranty fixes two times and they had a big sign at the front of the LG warranty repair center, rooting your phone voids your warranty . I don't think that you should have to root your phone just to have write access to the files on your SD card but it looks like I will keep plugging my phone into my PC to keep changing them.

Moving Files works with the LG File Explorer that comes with the phone.
I've read its a problem created by Google, so a lot of the File Explorers do not work.
Not ideal, but the on board one does the job.
Cheers!

Thanks for the info HKPete, I had just used my favorite file manager and didn't think to try the one that came with the phone. I can copy, delete, rename, etc. all of the things that I want to do with the one that comes with the phone.

Yeah, haha, same problem here. Tried for quite a while to get it working with ES File Explorer.
No worries,
Cheers!

You do. Unless you only use the limited stock file manager possibly.

Most of us root our phones for other reasons but I agree that it's a backward step from Google

It certainly is a backwards step by Google, what are they trying to achieve? The stock browser is ok for some tasks, but for batch work, batch moving files etc. it's very awkward to use the stock browser.
I hope they damn well put the access back in the next release.

Try using a file manager to move things around :angel:

I just bought an LG G3 which came with KK 4.3.x and upgraded to KK 4.4.2. I am using the LG File Explorer that comes with the phone to move music and pictures from internal storage to the SD card. After the upgrade to KK 4.4.2 it doesn't work using the same file manager. Pre-upgrade it worked just fine. Tried Delete, Move and Copy functions and none seem to work. Deleting a picture file only seems to work from the Gallery app.
I'm a little frustrated as it seems it should work even with the restrictions of KK 4.4.2 for SD cards since its the pre-installed file manager that came with the phone and other seem to have success with it AND using the Gallery app to delete works. I can read from the SD card fine (File Manager sees the files, played music in the standard music app, view photos fine) so I don't think its a bad card already. (I just bought the card too).
Any thoughts on why the default file manager won't copy/move/delete files on the SD?
