I think your music still on your sdcard. Try reboot to xrecovery delete dalvik/cache n fix permission.

I have a 32gb sd card and I only have 19 gigs of music on it but it says I have 4gb left. I rooted my phone and installed viper ROM also I have the clockwork recovery flashed. I want to format my memory card and put the music back on. Do I have to keep anything else to put back on to it?

Thats more or less up to you. I'd say keep your most recent nandroid. If have games and you had to download the SD files, keep those so you don't have to download them again. Maybe keep the htcwatch portion of the .data folder if you want to keep the Green Hornet movie on your SD. Everything else is usually written to the SD as needed.
Thank you. Okay so I'm probably going to sound stupid here but will it screw up the root?

Wait for a while then check again or try rebooting your phone. Btw, what rom are you using?
Moving your songs to a folder named 'music' might work too
Delete the double post too

I tried gtr, oxygen, nightly and all except ics rom but problem is there with me present I'm using perfect peso 2.3.
Songs are in music folder only
Ok!, try to browse using root explorer, and show hidden files, and find ".nomedia" file to the folder where the music files are located and delete it. Now go to dev tools and selext media scanner.. that should do the trick..

Did you try to delete data on media storage and reboot?

OK guys! Now don't hate me. I know this has probably been asked many times before. So don't hate me, just looking for help. I download a lot of my music from the app called " mp3 music downloader". My question is " all my songs are being put into my USB storage not my external SD card. I have a 32 gig SD card that I want all my music to download too. Well one is how do I move all my music files from my USB to SD storage? and 2 how do I set it up that whenever I download music it automatically goes on my external SD card? Thank you to anyone that is willing to help a newbie.

I believe in the USB settings you must select, "mass storage mode" when connected
When you plug your note into your computer- if you run windows autoplay should recognise 2 seperate forms of storage. Usueally drive," I: " is your external SD
You can open both and simply recognise the difference between the two and your computer will recognise the amount of storage on both there is. So it should be easy to identify your external SD
For your sake, if your transferring music or anything for that matter organize it on your computer into folders- although generally the note recognizes the entire card with or without orginization; I just prefer not to mix my music with my backups in the same place
If you have any further questions feel free to PM me!

Wait nvm there's an easier way. Go to the ssettings of the app and change the directory to your external SD
From your phone download an app called astro file manager
Fine where your music is, cut and paste it to your external SD
What I described above is for the transfer of files through a computer but you can use your phone! Ignore my first post

Thank you so much for the quick reply. I did want to know how to do this from the phone only. I also went into setting under my music app mp3 music downloaded. There is no selection. Probably a ****ty app. But works great. I will try astro file manager. But does this mean every time I download a song I will basically have to do a copy and paste deal?

No no! Well, I'm sure the music app supports different completed download directories. Otherwise that's gonna be your best bet but ill look into it!

Well I checked the music app I use. Under settings there's no selection for where the music fies are downloaded. It automatically puts it in usb storage. I'm going to have to try another music app. Thanks for the help. But I did move all the files to the external SD card. Using Astro file manager. I'd like using this music app because it has the american billboard chart I can just pick the songs rather than typing and thinking of the song or searching.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda premium
I use that app and Your right there's no way to change the file location. Once a month I just do a cut and paste to my SD card. Its the only solution I've found.

Samsung didn't do anything... The SD card is faulty because I am having the same problem now. I still need to test it though.
EDIT- Using Cyanogenmod10?? I was using that and today morning i flashed back to stock ROM and apparently sd card is working now.
Try unmounting and re-mount it. might help.
Unmount works Lol thanks mat8

Your devise cannot play any media with stock media player while media scan is running ( small sd card sign at notification bar). Let it complete to play media files like music and videos. Once scan completed you can play any media.

It happens sometimes with my device too while playing with memories. So, reboot ur device and then try playing the media, if it still doesnt work run the script again :good: Well i have experienced it many times till now so worry not

NA did all that. I ended up downloading a decent player from market that does its own scans. I don't think my phone scans at boot anymore

I have this exact same problem. I don't mind playing my music/videos from a file manager, but this also disables my freaking CAMERA. Trying to open my camera/video recorder just gives the same "Try again after media scanning complete" error message, even though the media scanner is not running.
Do I need to create some more folders on the SD card? Probably just going to try formatting and trying again, but I am so sick of doing that with this phone. If LG didn't make it practically unusable by default, it wouldn't be necessary D:<
Well guys i switched my internal and external sd and my phone scans at boot. At this second im going to try and run stock media player and see if my music shows up.. brb
Update.. my stock media player is Sh*t now and just scans usb.. im guessing cuz i switched my memories? One thing i havent tried is putting my sd card music files onto my internal sd card music folder. The only reason im not pressed to fix the issue is because the media player i downloaded is better than stock player and soon JB will be out for p769 so ill have to switch internal/external memory again. I think then my stock player will play. Its weird tho my stock player should simply scan for music files on device and sd card. Idk whats so hard about that

Can you post the forum/thread where you got your information about swapping external with internal sd. I want to know because i might be able to help. I know of two threads, and i combined information from both and everything has been working fine.

I got mine working without a format. I was using RemountSD and a script running from SManager.
I had to go into RemountSD and change to the settings posted by arman4o in the "App data on external SD" L9 thread:
arman4o said:
Try RemountSD
ICS Settings:
Interne SD - /mnt/sdcard
External SD - /mnt/sdcard/external_sd
Target external SD card - /mnt/sdcard
JB Settings:
Interne SD - /storage/Sdcard0
External SD - /sorage/Sdcard0/external_sd
Target external SD card - /storage/sdcard0
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
These settings in RemountSD took care of my media scanning issues (as soon as I rebooted the media scanner started up, when before it was freezing), and now I can use my camera again.
Unfortunately now my 32gb microSD card is no longer showing as my primary internal storage. In fact, it's not showing up at all. But at this point I already have all the large games installed to the microSD that I needed (and even though it doesn't show up under storage, the games still work), so I am just going to wait until a JB 769 ROM before I mess with all this crap again.
