Hello guys
I have took 20/25 photos, and some of them have disappeared somehow...
those photos are stored in my SD card
I just can't figure out what the issue is..
its weird that the other photos are still in my SD card....
Thanks for reading,
Regards

So today I noticed all my photos in my gallery app were greyed out... thought it was strange. Selected one... big grey pic... then another.... and another....
These pics span the internal storage and sd card....
First I deleted the cache to the gallery app.... same result...
OK... went into es file explorer.... dcim... camera..... all JPEGs gone....
Went into the sdcard..... have multiple folders under pics main folder... all empty... except for any video files...
Then mounted on my PC... and they also don't show.
What could of happened to cause this.... I wouldn't normally care but I lost a lot of pics of my kids... that spanned 3+ years that weren't all backed up. Any help on the snowballs chance in hell of recovering this would be appreciated.... but at the very least any reasonable explanation as to why this may have happened would be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

You could try pulling the sd card out, putting it in the computer directly, and then using a data restore or undelete app. As long as the sectors haven't been rewritten, they should be recoverable.
Also, this may help for the future. I use my phone to capture my kids as well. What I've been doing is using the auto upload features in both Google+ and DropBox, to back pics up in replicate. Sucks for bandwidth and battery usage, but it is what is is. lol
Hope you get them back!

I will try that when i get the chance.... just wish i knew WHY this happened. So frustrating!
So i was able to recover my files on the external sd card with a card reader.... now how would i do the same on the internal card, if we cant mount it with usb mass storage mode?

There is a pc program called recova I think it's from pirova. I wiped my phone once and was able to do the deep scan and recovered them. Hope it helps good luck.

Unfortunately, I don't think that one's doable with the way the device mounts. You may be able to mount it as a drive via recovery, but I'm not sure.
Edit: Just noticed your other post. You're asking the right thing. Hope you get an answer. If CWM doesn't have it, you could try TWRP.

Recova is what i used on the SD card and worked perfectly.
Also, i flashed TWRP... and the option isnt there either, so i will assume that its not possible on our phone yet... so for now im screwed...
am afraid to install any new programs or files, in fear of losing my more current pics, which were internally.
That happened to me too, but i am using the GS2 Tmobile, after flashing cm 9 nightlybuild. but my picture on my sd card, so i guess will use recova.
Thanks and hope you get your pictures recovered.

It sucks that you lost quite a few pictures that mean a lot to you. I do see sincerely hope that you now understand the importance of backing up these important files. This really goes for everyone. Keep important files backed up in at least one other place, and keep it up to date. Most people don't start doing backups until they've lost something that's irreplaceable.
I was trying to transfer some photos from my note 2 to my computer and I accidentally deleted them through finder in the android file transfer app. I think they may have been in the internal phone memory and I really want to get these pictures back please help.
Google recova or something like that
It finds them on pc and sd cards

I don't think they were on the sd card because in my gallery i can see two different types of folders one says camera and the other one says camera with a lil pic of an sd card on it and they got deleted from the first folder
If you're rooted you can use Hexamob Recovery or Undelete For Root Users. Otherwise search the Play Store for file recovery apps, but there's a chance you have to be rooted for one to work.

I'm not rooted and haven't been able to find any apps that can recover...the pics were on the phone's internal memory and not the sd card which is why I'm guessing that these recovery programs i downloaded on my mac haven't been finding anything to restore

even if they were deleted from internal storage?
Try it and see. If it doesn't work, root the phone. They all work for internal memory if the phone is rooted. Been there, done that.

The longer you wait, the more likely you won't be able to recover. Those areas they were stored may get written over again. Just try. At this point it seems you have nothing to lose.

Well its a matter of the data being over written by newer data. He can wait days without overwriting and still be able to recover it.

I think that's what I just said.
If you do need root for any of the recovery apps, install exynos abuse (found in these threads). It's a quick apk install and a quick button click to gain root. I just hope installing yet one more app doesn't write over those sectors. Perhaps as a last resort.

You can try a program for windows called "recuva" its free and you will need a sd card reader do not attach your phone via usb. I repeat do not attach your phone via usb. Use a sd card reader. There are also a number of free recovery tools online but I myself got out of a sticky situation using recuva. Hope it helps..

I noticed I can no longer create folders or copy to sd card from the note. I have to connect through USB to save to micro sd card. I believe the 4.4 has something to do with this. For security?
This sucks, if I had known I wouldn't of update.
Is anyone that took OTA 4.4 have same issue. Or found a work around. ?

EStrongs file explorer. Root not required. :good:
I have no problem doing this using the My Files app that is included with your device. If you are trying to use a third party file explorer from the Play Store then you may have problems as 4.4.2 locks down access to the SD card for third party apps.
I noticed I have two new camera picture folders when I review images on phone now...

Yea but if your trying to download via ttorrent or similar it gives permission error. Only way to get it on sdcard is to download to internal memory then move to sd.

I dont have burst enabled at all. In Album I have Camera with 1,677 images and another Camera with 51 images. I think this was my fault come to think about it :silly: I just realized that my SD card was almost full and at some point I changed the camera to store on internal memory. I think this was it? LOL

Hey, long story short. When I was back in London I copied a lot of my brothers songs onto my SD card .
I don't know if this is the right place to ask, but I accidentally deleted my pics off of my phone. It's not on SD card, dropbox, Google plus, Google drive or any cloud storage. I tried some software but it only recovers from SD card. Please help, I have a small amount of pictures but the memories...
