Strange camera bug - Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys
I have since October this amazing phablet and it is work fine.
Some days ago I have rooted them, not for any particular rom, but because I want remove alle the stupid and not interesting application already installed in my device.
Well, all works fine but since 2/3 days I have this strange bug.. If I make a picture I see them. In the first time but after some minutes if I go in gallery to see them... These not exist! It's incredible!
Well my setting is make to save the picture in external sd card ( i have a 32 gb memory on board).
Do you have some suggestions? Maybe that I need to format the sd card? Maybe that the cause is my rooted phone?
If you a have some idea and if some people can reply me.. Thanks in advance!

Try to save your pics on the internal SD and see if they still there after minutes (as you mentioned)
If yes, you have a problem with your external SD, if not, you have a problem with your system, try to reboot... And then see if the problem is solved. If not, clear cache and the other usual stuff in recovery. (not full factory reset! Remember to backup your stuff before clearing everything).
Best regards

[Q] can anyone help me out plz

hi all, plz take it steady!
iv a htc desire, iv used revoke in the past and had a custom rom installed which i was happy with. recently i had a problem, to cut the story short i wiped the memory card of all its contents, including any backups.
the phone itself is always telling me its low on memory altho i dont have alot installed at all.
i have leedriod 3.0 installed at the moment but yet again, i get low space warnings and what is on the phone is on the memory card using app2sd.
basically i just want the memory back to its max available and the standard rom reinstalled, but where do i get it from, iv looked on the thread and i was unsure which one to download.
baseband is 32.48.00.32u 5.11.05.14
i dont believe i have a backup of the original
any help and steps would be gratefull

If you say you don't have a lot installed, then are you sure app2sd is working? Also before flashing Leedroid did you do a full wipe of your phone?
hi thanx for the reply, yes im sure app2 sd is working, any app i have installed is on the sd card yet available space on the phone itself is14.88 mb.
as for the question regarding did i do a full wipe before leedriod was installed...i dont really know if i did a full wipe or not. i just need some help to get as much space as possible back and the standard rom reinstalled if thats possible
You need a ext partition on the sd card to get the "real" a2sd working. If you don't want to make one flash a noa2sd rom.

Phone Memory Deteriorating?

I have started to notice weird issues with my Note 2. When I decided to switch from Cleanrom 4.9 to the ATT version, I loaded the zip onto my internal storage through usb, and rebooted to recovery, but the zip wasnt where I put it (root of internal storage), nor could I find any folder that it didnt claim was empty. I put it on my sdcard and flashed that way after a factory reset+system wipe.
After getting the new rom setup, I rebooted the phone to find it had forgotten all the default apps, like nova launcher. Rebooted again and the same thing happened.
These problems have happened before, but never survived a factory reset.
I am scared that this is a hardware issue, which would really suck. Anyone have this happen or any ideas on fixing it?
I am planning on returning to ATT stock and if the problem happens again I will bring it to them, but we all know I don't want to have to do that
Thanks for any help
Well if you factory reset it it will forget everything. Its like starting fresh with nothing.

I factory reset it, set it up again, then rebooted. I set the new defaults after the reset, then they disappeared on reboot
the problem persisted over a full ODIN stock flash. Not really sure what to do now, it has become a large annoyance. I guess I will tell ATT what is happening, but I dont think something like this is covered under warranty

Let me ask what sd card do you have? You dont have the sandisk 32gb ultra 10 class 10 do you? I bought mine thru radioshack...and seems that particular sd card is malfunctioning on alit if people...
Also..when backing up a rom the clockwork recovery goes to internal storage...the external sd card is labeled wierd when using root explore my file path for sd card is storage/extSdCard
Btw im not using twrp recovery...and all backups always saves to internal

I am using a PNY class 10 32gb, but you are correct that it could be malfunctioning, although most of the problems seem to correspond with internal storage. I will try out a different card when I get home from work, thanks.

Does it happen on your stock ROM?
Did you recently get a new sd card?

Yes it did happen on stock.
And its the same memory card Ive always had. it did happen on a 64gb card I once used as well.

I never heard of this problem before. I would guess it has something to do with your storage.
Are you saving pics to internal or external storage? If external, try internal (or vice versa).

Ok I tried switching the storage and it seems to have stopped.
I'll give it a run for the week and assume the internal storage was the issue.
Thanks for your help upndwn4par. I really appreciate it

[Q] 16GB Samsung galaxy note 2 is now 10GB because of ROM install?

Hi There.
I've had my phone for quite some time now and I love it. The problem is, is the internal memory. I have the 16GB model which is fine because I also use a 32GB Sandisk micro SD card. I have a custom ROM installed.
CARBON-JB-NIGHTLY-20131117-1645
The Carbon Nightly ROM - Build Date - Sunday November 17th 2013.
It's a couple months out of date now and I'm thinking about upgrading it to the newest build or possibly even switch ROMs to something that is better if you can suggest anything. The main issue I have is that I don't know if I should upgrade my ROM because of the internal storage space.
Total storage Space: 10.46GB
With everything else on my phone (Nothing apart from apps, everything else belongs on the SD card) I still only have 2GB space left which doesn't leave me a lot of room for upgrading or even taking pictures. For some reason, my camera won't let me change my storage device so it forces it to save it to the internal memory which I constantly have to keep moving it to my SD card to stop it from being full. I don't really have much space for installing new apps either so at the moment, everything is wrong with this phone and It's starting to frustrate me a little.
I believe that the missing 6GB (just under of course) is missing because of previous ROM installations that I don't use anymore? I've factory reset it, cleared cache and everything else for that matter. It's just what it is saying is what i'm getting unfortunately.
I want to upgrade to something better or just the newer build of this ROM but at the moment, this version really annoys me. The simple fact of not being able to save pictures I take on my camera directly to my SD card frustrates me beyond belief. If someone could help me out, suggest a new ROM, tell me how I can upgrade my ROM and get lots more of my internal memory back, or if you're able to skype me through the process, you'd be taking a ton of weight off my chest as I'm still stuck with this working brick (as I like to call it) for the next 6-7 months before my contract renews.
Many Thanks!
16 GB is marketing. Samsung gives you about 12,5 GB.
Wipe your internal SD

Hmm strange but before I installed my ROM, I had like 15GB free space total?
Would you suggest I update my ROM or go to a new one or what? Not really sure what I should do with it...
I think that 15 GB is not real about 13 GB is OK
What recovery do you use? Factory reset after instal you ROM?

It was just a random guess!
Clockwork Mod Recovery
You cannot use CWM and TWRP simultaneously
Wipe data/factory reset was done?

I'm noob at this is all honesty with you!
Yeah It was. I'm actually installing cyanogenmod 11. I'm just nervous about what I do since I'm just going to take a wild shot at it :/.. I'm just going to clear the dalvik cache and cache, then factory reset it then install the new cyanogenmod with the new gapps, then clear the cache again. Turn back on and restore my apps from titanium backup.
Hope that's what is right...
First time In six months I've come close to getting results!
Looking at backups, I backed up my ROM couple months ago but for some reason It backed up to device and not SD card, or simply could've just been me being on the dumb side that day! either way. 8GB/10GB on internal Storage !

i do full wipe (data, system, cache, sd card, ...) from recovery. install 2 new Rom even samsung official rom. but problem not solved.
i think it's not so easy to solve
No bro when you do that in recovery this will just delete system apps and something else but when you do it from setting you will wipe everything in your phonee
Try it and i think that will solve your problemo
and if you have external sd remove it and test then if every thing is good put it again and see
this problem was on my old phone s2 ,, so don't worry
Peace!
