That would be something to take with the Dev of those apps.

A lot of apps for some reason can't detect the sd card on s3 such as titanium backup. Probably cuz smasung decided to name the internal memory /sdcard so apps automatically detect that as the sd card.
All I can suggest is maybe move your songs to your internal memory or try some other apps.

I got PlayerPro and have no problem with playing music from my external card. I will check JetAudio and post results. Do stock player reading audio from external card? What rom are you running and what kernel? This could be a problem.
Edit: No problem with JetAudio Basic.

Same here.
I don't have the app anymore (since last week), but if I remember right, you go into the app settings and point it to the folders you want it to scan. Did you do that yet?

Problem maybe with rom you have installed. Did you try running on TW rom? Check if you have .nomedia file in folder with your music. If you do just remove. Let us know.. Can you see external card in any file explorer "root explorer" etc.. Can you see external card if you connect phone to your PC/Mac ?

I think other players may have compatibility problem with rom 4.2.2 There is no other explanation if you can see all drives in other player, explorer or in computer

Deviant 4.2.2 didn't give me any problems with accessing music on my external SD.
Again I'll ask. Did you open the freakin settings and point the app to the MUSIC folder on your external SD card?!
If you did, then let us know what model SD card you have and what your folder hierarchy is.

Just tested myself and it worked fine
How about you read the posts in your own thread and tell us about your SD card and folder hierarchy?

Maybe like you guys said its a ROM compatibility issue, just for testing I have installed "Neutron Music Player" and it right away detected all my drive without any problem. So don know, and for the what kind of SD card I have at this point I don't think its the SD card issue.

Uncheck this restriction click refresh mediastore and then try. Looks like you player is restricted to only storage folder not external card

Thank you for all your efford to help me on but no good its funny how the other 2 ("Neutron Music Player" & "PowerAmp") are working great.
I have email "jetaudio" last night and this is what I got replied
"That is bug. we already know that.
We will patch that for next release.
Thank you again for your report."
So its been addressed and hopefully will be fixed on coming release.

I give up on this thread.

[Q] My gallery app doesnt show the pictures moved in external sd card

Hey guys I have a very annoying issue. My gallery app doesnt show up my pictures in my sd card. I moved pictures by file explorer of its own, and they all are gone from gallery app. Although it doensnt show the pics that are moved , it shows the pictures freshly taken into external sd card . But it doesnt show the pics I moved into it. The other fact is that when I unmount the sd card and mount it again, even the freshly taken pictures dissappear.!! but after that I shoot some more and they show up but old pics never shows up. My sd card is new and I have no other issue apart from this ( its class 10 , 32 gb ,kingston micro sd card.! please helppp !! (

Can you still find the pictures in the file explorer ? What folder did you move them to ?
Try downloading quikpic gallery and see if it finds them

They all exist in external sd cad and I can easily find em all just going through file explorer. I can find an open them there. They all in the folder that camera app creates. But gallery doesnt show them

What folder do you have them saved in ? If you have a DCIM folder on the ext card it will find them if they are put in there

They all in dcim buddy but yeah I tried what you told me and downloaded quickpic gallery and it showed my pics up as long as I put a tick on ''show hidden files'' . But I have no clue why would they be hidden. They all appears when im lookin around file explorer. Lets think about it

Seems odd to me. For some reason it thinks they should be hidden. Normally the media scanner would pick them up. Are the formatted differently ?

I dont know which format it is but recently after having had this problem , i formatted it in storage menu of settings. And I put the files back on it but no sign of pictures in gaplery.but yeah thanks for quick pic app! At least it shows them all! But i need to find a way to get my gallery to work properly again

Have you cleared the data/cache for the gallery?

Yes , i did ot at my first try .but the same . I think my gallery app is kinda broken down for some reason.it seems to be working very well but, it has problem with external card. Maybe i should replace it but donno where to find it. I found some but they all are modified , not the original ones

Got to be a card issue. Move pics to internal or hard drive and format the card and see if it helps.

Hey guys Ive come up with news. I flashed succesfully synergy rom into my phone. And gallery had no problem showing pictures on my external sd card. After then I restore all the apps and datas through titanium backup that i used to backup all apps and datas from previous system . AND guess what ? Gallery has started not to show up the pictures in external again. I think an app is causing this but i dont know how to find out

My general rule of thumb is only use titanium to restore apps sparingly. I just keep an ext SD card with apks of the apps I want to install that aren't on market and use the playstore for all other. Flash synergy again and then do an app and check gallery, rinse and repeat. Might be tedious but worth it.

I used to have 2.3.6 GB stock ROM and flashed THIS JB 4.3 ROM Everything works fine but my Gallery app doesn't want to show my old pics at all... When I shoot new photos they are fine.. But my phone recognizes my OLD photos as VIDEO FILES and when I try to open them it asks me what app to use to open them showing video apps. This thread looks like the closest one to my problem. I hope someone can find a solution to this other than using another gallery apk.
(I can see and open my old photos using file explorer)

Thanks for any effort..

Try out fish bowl gallery app and unlock all pics . They ll show up in gallery after this

[Q]Camera can't work in ARHD 31.1

Camera exit while use it.And if I move one App from internal storage to SD card,reboot phone,the desktop icon disappeared.

Maybe you should try wiping it, and if that doesn't help maybe re-flash it, but about the moving thing... some apps don't work when moves to sd card, or they dissapear from the homescreens, because of being moved... if it still runs then just make a new shortcut

Kitkat 4.4.2 Gallery/Camera fix

I've been going nuts on the latest CM11 nightly 4.4.2 with the camera not being able to save its pictures to your sd card automatically and also multiple crashes...some fixes I found, writing new permissions mostly just didn't work or wouldn't stick if you rebooted.
I now have 2 different optional APK file and INSTALL fixes...1st is just the camera apk which I ripped out of the liquidsmooth cm based kitkat 4.4.2 which works flawlessly. The 2nd is a gallery apk fix that I ripped out of the slimbean 4.3.1 rom and it reinstalls the gallery apk which also has its own camera that will install along with it...both fixes work, both camera's are slightly different from each other though and function differently based on the gallery that is installed
This method requires Titanium Backup...you can get it on the play store and the free version will work just fine
HERE'S THE CAMERA APK FIX:
-backup your systems "camera" app before doing anything! don't blame me for losing the camera if something fails
-once backed up, uninstall the camera app and if using titanium backup, move the backup files to another location out of the titanium folder located in your INTERNAL storage
-download the camera zip files I made here
-extract the zip file and you'll get a folder named "camera files"...copy and paste the files inside, do not extract any of these files, to your titanium backup folder located on your INTERNAL storage
-once copied over, open up titanium backup and look for the camera apk file with a line through it and should say beneath it "1 backup"...click on it, hit restore and choose app and data, that's it! it should now be there and fully functioning
HERE'S THE GALLERY APK FIX:
-backup your systems "gallery" and "camera" apps before doing anything! I won't be held responsible if this doesn't work for some users
-once backed up, uninstall the gallery and camera apps
-download the "com.android.gallery3d_1.1.40012.apk" file I made here
-install the apk file by simply clicking on it and choosing install, it shouldn't need any special permissions but if so, refer to next step
-install the gallery apk by using a root file manager (I use root browser lite) and move the apk file to system>app, change the permissions to rw-r--r-- then select "ok" and then install it and reboot. after reboot, you should now have your gallery back and a newer camera icon that is darker gray in color with a dark blue center camera lense, open the camera app
-go to it's settings>more settings and to the right you'll now see an sd card icon, click and select the sd card and test it out!! that's it
video of using root browser lite to change permissions...in the video, it's a silent screen recorded guideline, my app was already installed, so I highlighted the options that show how to change the permissions and then when I highlighted showing "cancel/view/uninstall", if it wasn't installed the option would say "cancel/view/install"

*Newly added!!*--reinstalling sprint zone and voicemail
to install, follow the exact same steps as installing the camera/gallery apk files
-voicemail apk link: com.coremobility.app.vnotes
-sprint zone apk link: com.sprint.zone_4.6.017
if this worked for you, please post up and let us all know

giving this thread a bump...i revised the apk installation steps since redoing this process after a few updates of cm11, they fixed the camera as far as adding the option for sdcard storage but I've been getting a lot of hang ups and crashes then "unable to retrieve camera" error messages when trying to open back up, even after a reboot.
I even installed today's release of the cm11 nightly and the camera was a crashing mess over and over, so for any having these camera issues, here you go!

im wondering if i will ever be able to use the sprint voicemail. since i loaded carbon 4.4.2 and wondeing if there was any way of making it easy to make a call from your messaging by just sliding either right or left instead of tapping?

yes you can! I have done this already, I installed the voicemail and sprint zone apps on my cyanogenmod 11 4.4.2 and they work...I'll make apk's for them as well and post them up, give me a few
edit...all uploaded for you my man, just do exactly the same as I noted doing for the gallery app installation, where to place it and changing the permissions, any issues post back up

Just wanted to say, tried most if not all AOSP roms and for some reason all of them freeze when switching back and forth. This is the only one that works 100%.
Thanks for the find.

awesome, this camera apk I have listed here is from the slimbean 4.3.1 rom which is probably why it works perfectly on 4.4.2 slimkat, same devs

thanks working on att gs3 on metropcs running unnofficial Beanstalk 4.4.2 rom 20140206 release... fix "cant connect to camera" error. Thanks again

Thanks so much! I first created a backup. I used root explorer for the whole thing. I tried uninstalling via TiBu first, but it didn't actually remove the camera and gallery apks. I then tried ES File Explorer, but that requires you to set root to Apps and ADB, and I had deselected ADB some time ago.. I downloaded the apk and copied it to /system/app. I then manually deleted the two apks, changed permissions on your apk and installed. Rebooted and works wonders. Thanks!
I would like to suggest a n00b-oriented, step-by-step guide.
1. Use your favorite recovery manager and back everything up. This way, you can always go back if you mess something up.
2. Download and install Root File Explorer (Free).
3. Launch Root File Explorer. It will ask to download and install a few tools. Let it.
4. Go to where you downloaded the file (probably sdcard/Download). Hold your finger on the name and select copy.
5. Press the "Home" icon on the bottom left of the screen.
6. Click on the folder named "system" and then click on the folder named "app".
7. Select paste to copy the file here.
8. Press and hold the newly copied file, and select "Permissions".
9. Set the permission to rw-r--r--, or 0644. In other words, select "Read" for all three, and then select "Write" for Owner. Everything else should be unchecked, and hit OK.
10. Scroll down and fine GoogleGallery.apk and GoogleCamera.apk. Select GoogleGallery.apk and press uninstall. Then long press the apk and delete it. Do the same for GoogleCamera.apk.
11. Find the new apk that you just downloaded (com.android.gallery3d_1.1.40012.apk) and press it. Select install.
12. Once installed, back out of everything and reboot your device. When the device reboots it will say it is updating 1 application.
13. You are now rebooted with the new, fixed, camera. The icon is now darker, and with a blueish/purpleish lens.
14. No, none of your files have been deleted. Enjoy your working camera!
15. Check out the new options! In the extended settings, you can now click on the SD card icon and instantly select to use your internal storage or your external SD card (if present) to save your photos to!
16.Give goku2778 your Thanks!

Found this out last night, the camera that comes with the Gummy Nightly (AT&T Galaxy S3 Android Development forum) comes with a camera that has more settings and the shutter sound can be disabled via the android system settings/sound options. I don't know if the shutter sound option is always there in system settings as I didn't check the previous roms.

Thank you, I'll have to try it out. I have verified that the Shutter Sound option (under System Settings/Sound) is not available in another rom (Liquid Smooth) so it looks like the developer has to manually add the option (not built in to the camera). And Liquid Smooth's camera settings are detailed.

[Q] Cyanogenmod 10.2 - Move to SD Apps

I have just installed cyanogenmod 10.2, android 4.3 on my samsung s4 lte version.

How do you use it? Do you manually create the link ? I didnt have to do that with the stock ROM. Also in the app list, it lists many applications as
0 bytes.. and can't do anything with them

Yes. There is a "+" sign in the menu. Tap on it and FolderMount (FM) will ask for source folder (you can browse it via UI) and also asks whether it should create the destination folder automatically.
For example I have Sygic maps on internal SD (/sdcard/Sygic) which is a quite big folder, around 5 GB. So I inked it to external SD - FM autocreated it on external SD and moved the files.
Try to find Youtube videos about FM usage.
