Troubles with CM12.1 (USB mode and video play) - Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello guys, this is my first post so if there's something wrong I apologize.
Well, I installed this http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...cyanogenmod-12-alpha-1-n7100-t2949644/page785 following the flash instructions. Everything was working fine, till now.
First, when I connect my phone on my computer, it doesn't show every file I have. This started like half an hour ago (I installed the rom yesterday).
If connected as Camera, it only shows internal storage. If connected as media device, it shows internal and sd, but on sd just show 2 folders (out of 10).
In file manager (on cellphone), I can see everything.
I didn't change anything that could cause this. I already tried cleaning data of media storage, rebooting, unmounting and mounting sd, nothing worked.
Second, when I was using stock rom, I used MX player and could see some videos that are on my sd. Now with CM12.1, there are some that I can't. It says HW decoder is not supported, and in SW mode it hasn't audio. Is there some incompatibility known with some video formats?
Another thing is that Google play services keeps stopping, but that doesn't really bothers me
Can somebody tell me something to do?
Thanks

[Q] SDcard issue on every JB ROM

i have a big issue for JB ROM, this quote is have same problem with me:
philsfan said:
Wondering if anyone can help...
on JB, stock google apps and system apps won't recognize my SD Card at all, while outside apps have no problem recognizing it...?
for example, stock Gallery app won't bring up my pictures, mxplayer wont show videos, miui file explorer cannot count/read video files, music, and pictures, however Quick Pic has no problem. Root Explorer has no problem, Titanium Backup has no problem...but trying to access music or custom notifications for gmail/sms won't show up in the system apps (gmail, mms, etc).
another thing is when I plug my phone into my computer, none of my old files are there (but like I said they show up just fine with Root Explorer or any other file explorer).
I've tried every JB Rom available for Toro, yes I've tried SuperWipe, I've done it all.
Any ideas, fellas? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

#thats some reason why some user not use JB ROM unnofficial
this is 1 of thread disscusion with the same issue http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1748326
A common reason for media content stored on SD cards not being shown on apps is that the sd card is not being properly scanned, this is supposed to happen everytime the phone starts... but it seems to be a common issue on ICS, even stock roms. I don't remember if JB has same issue.
I used Scan Media, from app market, then after a restart, I could access all my content again.
I've seen ppl recommends Rescan Media as well... you could try those.
It's really weird that you can't access your content when connected through usb to the computer. If you use MTP connection you could try MSC then, see if you can access them.
This is all I can think of, Good luck.

I do!!! I have recently installed this new ROM and I love it! One down of it is the battery life. But I've disabled gogle now services and my battery improved at almost 40% lol It's nice to have it but It's also annoying to charge your phone every four hours. Im retty sure there is a bug continuously running that drains the battery that fast.
NOw going back to the point, the bad problem is that my phone is not recognizing my memory card. Other programs recognize it like file manager and others but every time I go to gallery my phone doesnt recognize the pictures from it. Also the music player doesnt see the music I have on it either. Frustrating :/
I have done so far this:
1. Unmounted and re mounted the memory card using the ROM
2 Unmounted and re mounted the memory card using the ClockworkMod
3. Formatted the memory card many ways and different formats
4. Used a different (blank) memory card with one file
I also read another thread from previous codename ROMs about putting a null file on certain folders? I cant recall it right now, but theres is one thread about it. That did not work as well.
I guess we need to figure out more man. sad cuz I love this ROM

[Q] Host of problems after rooting and using CM10

After a couple of hours trying to find someone with the same problems as me I came up with nothing, so I decided to make a thread.
Firstly, I am no where near versed in device hacking so I am hoping these problems are just due to my ignorance.
My coworker rooted and loaded cm10 and teamwinrecovery onto my sprint GS3 and since then I have had a few issues. The most frustrating problem I am currently experiencing is the phone will not write anything to the external sd. There is no indication as to why this is the case. Under the storage option in settings it shows that it can read the external SD card yet programs seem to not be able to see that it is there. For example my camera will not give me the option to save photos to the external SD and programs like app 2 sd wont give me the option to transfer any of the apps to the SD card even ones that i know are supposed to work like Winamp. Also ive tried using DirectoryBind to change the directory of apps and music but I'm just prompted to create a new file because the data directory doesn't exist and asks if i want to create one. I tap yes and i am just prompted with the same error again and again.
My second main issue is when I dock my phone to my windows 7 PC I get an enigmatic problem. Either i get an error that says the USB malfunctioned and cannot be recognized and the SGS3 won't show up in mycomputer. Or, the default drivers install fine and the device will show up in windows. However, if i try syncing winamp or even dragging files over to my phone it will copy for anywhere from 1 second to 5 minutes and then windows will freeze and if i close the process it will crash windows and/or winamp. I tried installing the samsung usb drivers but then i just get a device ID error and it wont show up.
I was able to find some people with similar issues but not the constantly changing one i have. All the fixes that have been suggested have not worked.
I realize this is more likely an issue with my computer than my phone but when i was running stock it would work fine.
If anyone can provide some insight into these problems or can direct me to someone with a similar issue it would be much appreciated.
I really like CM10 but these issues are deal breakers for me and I dont really want to go through risking bricking my phone in order to try and get back to stock but i will if it will fix these problems.

[Q] Music problem

Hello, today my One X have a weird problem.
Almost all my music files can't be played by the default music player (VLC instead works without problems).
Today I did those things:
Used MTP storage of my One X with Ubuntu (created a folder and copied a picture)
Uninstalled HTC Locations
Installed Music Hero (game) (it can't play my songs.. So I dunno if it broken that or if my songs was already broken when I've installed it)
And... in my picture gallery few images are not ok, I see a triangle with a "!" instead of that.
I already tried to re-copy all my music collection but the problem still..
Can someone help me? Thank you
edit: I've restored an old recovery backup but the problem isn't fixed..
Try restarting the phone or connecting / disconecting it from the USB plugged to the PC/mac , had similar issues few times, sometimes player or gallery can't show anything, like there isn't any files lol. Anyway those 2 fixed things for me. Good luck with yours =)
There's been times when my files haven't worked until I reboot the phone after putting them on the SD card.
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium
I tried to wipe the sdcard but without success.. the problem still.
So I wiped all and installed the new version of maXimus ROM, now all works good.

Music, pictures or anything - Not found

Flashed mySENSEv RC2.0 and going to keep it, as i finally decided the most suitable ROM for me to use. Anyway, I have a weird problem, after flashing, i had a little icon in bar which said "Phone storage is empty or unsupported files" and I was confused with this. I clicked it, and phone asked me to agree to empty PHONE storage. What happened? My SD Card got formatted... I am 100% sure it said do I want to empty phone storage. Anyway, i had most of my pictures and music on my another SD Card. I decided to download kernel and ROM again and now wiped the phone, flashed the ROM and finally got rid of that icon, as i thought maybe it was corrupted or something. Now when I got almost all my data from another sd card to this again, I have a new problem. My phone keeps saying on the music app "No music was found" and Gallery app "No pictures found". When I was on stock, when this happened I emptied media storage cache. Did it now too, rebooted and still this happens. Tried it few times. I am helpless, I can't understand what is wrong now. All was working fine before, even with this ROM before now! (I have been jumping through ROM's and this is the best ROM for me)
Edit: Oh great.. Found the reason.. Phone had emptied my Pictures, Music and Movies folder and I need to copy all the stuff there again. Hope it works now.

[Q] WMP/Galaxy I747 sync issues

First time post here. my ATT Gal I747 used to sync with WMP 11 nicely but since I rooted my S3, it no longer sync music into my phone. It connects normally showing memory info and connected device in WMP but as soon as I click start sync, it only reaches 21% and is stuck there. Ive tried to copy and paste frm PC to my external storage and says "cannot copy canceling" Im certain its not my PC, I have all the latest samsung drivers installed. Ive tried numerous syncing apps/desktop apps and not one will sync. My question is it a media files usage rights thing, or is it a reformatting the external sd to allow permissions, or is it a usb composite driver missing from my phone that was in stock rom? (btw my stock rom backup took a crap and I dont have it saved.) Ive turned on usb debugger, used different usb ports on PC, other things Im not familiar with in develop options folder, so i will not mess with it. Im currently running slimrom 4.2.2 build 5 with gapps and nova which works great no issues, except for not syncing to PC. Thought about reinstalling WMP but its not a stand alone in win7. Sorry If I typed a whole chapter, just wanted to get all troubleshooting info. I researched online for a solution but couldnt find any. ive looked at reformatting apps for sd cards on line but most of them are for videocams or camera sds on top of not knowing how to format a sd card. TYVM for any suggestions or tips I havent thought of. Much appreciated.
