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...

Guess that means its not genocide. I'll try flashing back to Srf1.1 to see if that helps anything.
EDIT: So far so good with Srf1.1.1. I'll keep you guys updated.

Nevermind still does it on SRF1.1.1/twilight.
Guess only thing I can do now is odin than try reflashing everything.
Nobody has found a cure yet?

I found another forum that says it's an Android problem.

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

Im having a problem with my phone, specifically with media scanning. It never completes im going to post a logcat of my phone to see if anyone can figure out why.
Is anyone going to answer?
How much storage does your device have free?
The media scan says it's completed. The only errors I see are I/O errors (cannot create folders).
It looks like you are out of storage, or your storage media has corrupted sectors.
Also, this is a global forum, people are on different schedules than you might be. You should allow more than 30 mins, before you start bumping the thread for answers.

I had the same issue from a bad flash. I reflashed and it stoped.

Well for the internal sd i have 5.39 GB free while the external is a 16 GB class 4 samsung sd. with 8.97 GB free. Its not the card i scanned it with windows and linux mint and the sectors are fine. It works whenever i put in another sdcard thats empty. as well as the one where the card is full of music.

What was the issue in your bad flash that you found out?
No issue, just a bad flash. I redownloaded, reflashed and it stopped.

That indicates it's an issue with your SD card, or a file on it. Try copying the contents to your computer, format the card, and restore your data.
Try it again. If, still not working, format the card and add folders individually to isolate.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using Tapatalk 2
Thats exactly what i did. I think either its a directory issue or something within one of the cards.
Alright heres what i found out. (this whole issues made me learnn a lot more about my phones subsystems) It turns out because i had installed a deodexed version of the ICS gallery from CM9 and it was fighting for resources from the built in one from the samsung gallery.
I seem to be having an issue which started just recently anytime I flash a new rom or nightly release of AOKP or CM10 all the content in my DCIM/Camera seems to be gone the content in the thumbnails folder is still there but the photos at completely all gone any ideas what could be causing this issue? Thank you in advance.
The photos are gone in your internal sdcard?

well I just checked all images are gone... internal and external photos.. images..wallpapers... just gone very strange plugged into pc and I see some of the files there for the images and the file size but can't copy any of them and on the phone the folders are just empty
Maybe you could get lucky using a data recovery tool on your sdcard. There should be some free/trial ones on the net. You just gotta search em out.
As for why....no idea. Obviously it shouldn't be doing that! Maybe the updater-script does something like format data or something...though tgat diesnt make sense either....has anyone else in the rom thread reported this too?

Actually someone said that they had the same issue with AOSP roms and started using quickpic instead and solved the issue
I don't understand how an app could stop the files from getting deleted.

Indeed I mean my new pictures I'm taking seem to be staying but everything all of my 700 images and pictures are gone nothing left which is very strange how only all the image media got wiped on external and internal sd
I don't see why or how but is it possible they were somehow actually stored in the apps data/cache folder and just linked to the sdcard??
It seems far fetched but its the only real explanation I could come up with other than something being corrupt and not working as intended.....
That's an odd one man.
Have you looked into any data recovery tools? I've heard of some success with them dealing with flash media like sdcards.

I'll look into the recovery tool and I was thinking the same with it being tied to the cache as well just really strange never had this issue before
I am having a problem accessing folders/files while my Note 2 is connected to PC as Media Device.
Let me do state/clarify that I have no problem accessing any folder/file from phone when using any file manager app.
It's when I connect my Note 2 to my PC/and or Linux box, that I do not see all the available folders that I know should be there.
Some are completely missing and some are even showing up, BUT are being read as empty - particularly those that are hidden folders (that I purposely named them starting with a period to hide its contents) (yes, I have enabled "show hidden files" on my linux box as well)
This is happening on both Windows 7 and Ubuntu.
Now I'm not talking about system folders and files. I'm talking about missing folders from sdcard0 and extSdCard!
Here's the kicker though... If I remove my MicroSD card from my phone and insert it to my PC's card reader, all the missing folders/files are there!
WTF???
Is it because when using the cable to my PC the phone is being mounted as Media Device instead of an attached storage as when I insert the microsd card to my PC?
Anyone else having this problem?
Wow no one else is having this issue? It Cant just be me. It did it with the stock ROM and a custom ROM

Gonna have to look into a solution cause this is bullsh!t that I'm going to have to take my microsd card out every time I need to access all my files.

Ive always had an issue but its Ubuntu related. Windows its a driver issue.
-first try an removing device from device manager. Unplug and reboot. Install them fresh.
-make sure you have switched on to connect as MTP. When your connected, pull it down an see what options are available.

This seems to be a common issue with Samsung devices. I had the exact same issue and it drove me crazy.
Sent from my Mackified Galaxy Note II using XDA Premium.
I'm having trouble with MTP using the latest version of Paranoid Android, it's SO slow, I just copied a 5MB file to the phone and the transfer lasted like 15 seconds, also, I really don't like that "media" layer thats added, I need to make some space in my internal storage/SDCARD and I can't even use a program to calculate the folder sizes, I want direct access to it, just that, I don't understand why it's not available in AOSP.
Well, I searched and someone said "hey, mount the storage/sd with recovery", ok, here we go. And nope, last TWRP doesn't work for some reason. OK, lets go back to CMW. And nope, again, can't mount them, it just won't work, nothing happens when I check the mount button...
Also I read that using the "Fix permissions" fix may solve it, well, it doesn't, tried that with both recoveries.
So, is there any way to enable USB Mass Storage Mode? Also, why is MTP SO DAMN SLOW? I've searched and I'm not the only one thats having this problem it seems.
Thanks.
Anyone?
Samsung made it like that, you cant do nothing about thet so far.

Can you explain a bit further about that? What did Samsung do?
Cant sorry, samsung made your sd car like a media storage not all file storage, more for music, movies, pictures, thats one of the reasons why samsung wont let you save apps on sd card.
