[Q] Problems with internal USB storage - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello together,
mp3 and jpeg will not found through the mediascanner on internal usb storage. I see nothing in galerie and player. If i copy my mp3/jpeg to the external sd-card, it works fine. But now i have the known CWM bug.
Why do the mediascanner ignore my media files on the internal USB storage ?
There is no .nomedia file. Is it forbidden to use the usb storage for media files ?
best regards
Klaus
I am using CHECKROM V2 ..

I cant believe, that i am the only one, who have this problem !
More detailed description:
Files in /sdcard/usbStorage/Music/*.mp3 will not be shown in music player.
Files in /sdcard/external_sd/Music will be shown
During copy my files to usbstorage i will see the music for a while, also pictures. But, if all data are copied, i see nothing anymore.
Does it work on yout side ?

Problem solved !!!
sdcard/usbstorage is the wrong directory
if you have problems, copy your data over a usb connection..

[Q] Problem with uploading music to SD card

So whenever i upload songs to my microSD card and then unplug phone from PC, the new-just uploaded songs become unusable. the default phone player just says "Sorry, the player does not support this type of audio file" or just skips to next song. the same on doubleTwist player - just skips to the next song.
and in the list the song shows up just as unknown artist (as in picture) just with the file name written (the xx - crystalised), although all the ID3 tags are ok.
turboimagehost .com/p/6311626/snap20110308_010941.png.html (can't post a normal link since i'm still a newbie here)
also after plugging the phone back to PC and trying to play one of the just-uploaded songs from SD card, they seem to be corrupted, no player on pc can play them
WHAT MAY BE THE PROBLEM AND WHAT CAN I DO?
i have to mention that this started recently and songs uploaded before play just fine. also phone is rooted with zt4root, everything else is as stock as LG P500 comes.
Either ur sd card is wrecked or ur pc is infected with usb viruses and trojans...
scanned PC and microSD card - no viruses.
weird thing is that if i download songs via apps like "MP3 Downloader" then the songs play and are saved on SD card corectly. really ****ing confused..
What size files after you copy?
Try to check for bad sectors SD
maybe your audio libraries are screwed ..u cud try extracting files from a ROM's zip file and then replacing them on your phone using custom recovery and adb..

Checked the card with built in Win7 checker, no bad sectors.

Could just restoring the firmware or dropping phone to factory setting help, cuz i'm hardcore newbie and i'm also really unfamiliar with flashing/ROM's/custom recovery. (and to clarify - haven't done anything to phone, except rooting)
My suggestion:
- go to Settings - SD card & phone storage - enable "Mass storage only".
- connect the phone to a different computer, one that has never seen your phone before. The mass storage mode should allow you to access the memory card, no LG drivers required.
- copy some files you want to test, check if they're OK. Post results.
Always use the "Safely Remove Hardware" procedure to unmount the SD card from the PC.

[Q] Play music on xbox 360 (on sd-card)

Okay, I plug in my phone via USB to the 360, i see Portable Device ... great ! i click on it and see all my folders and files, now most of my music is on my Memory Card , Now, I think my s2 file structure is slightly offputting, and i dont know why ....anyway,
My root structure says SDCARD which is my phone internal memory , but in my root I have External_sd folder (which is my sdcard) from the look of things.. anyway If i use a file manager on my phone I can open the folder external_sd.. however.... on my 360 i can but its just blank. :/
any ideas anyone?

[Q] missing media files

Hi, someone have probably asked this question but:
I've upgraded from stock 4.0 to PA 2.52 (4.1) and suddenly all my media files disappeared from music player and gallery.
- SDrescan doesn't work
- there are no .nomedia files
- when i plug my phone to laptop via USB only files created after upgrade appear (but I can see all the "old" and "new" files in OI file manager)
-neither SD mount widget nor mounting through CW recovery seems to work, so there's no possibility of copying files to my laptop and formatting memory
what to do ?

[Q] Strange behavior with USB storage and Kitkat 4.4.2

Hi there,
I've just bought a Nexus 4, with rom stock 4.4.2, unlocked & rooted.
I have a strange issue with storage, I have files that I can see on android storage (with ES File explorer or root explorer), and I can't see those files on Windows.
Here it is exactly what I've done under Windows 7 :
- Plug my phone with MTP or PTP
- Storage detected
- Copy a lot of files on the storage, we call those files "FILES1" (no images files).
- My files (FILES1) are on the USB storage under Windows.
- Copy all my photos, and process.android.media" crash, it seems to be a kitkat known bug.
- Tried to find a workaround on forum and I've clean data/cache of application "media storage".
- Not working at all and new bug appears ! Now on two different computer (Windows7), I can see the android storage but it's empty !
- On my phone it's not empty, with explorer, the files (FILES1) on the storage are present.
- Copy all my photos with Airdroid on the phone, we call those files "FILES2"
- Now on my Windows, I can see FILES2 (files copied after the empty bug) but no FILES1
- Via android explorer I can see that all the files are here and are working as intended !
I hope you understand my problem, this issue is really hard to explain.
Any ideas to see my FILES1 on Windows please ?
Any application to clean cache ?
Any idea of what's happening ?
Thanks
I don't fully understand the issue. Which files aren't showing, exactly? Have you tried rebooting the phone?
The issue is so strange it's hard to explain.
In fact, for resume, when I'm plugging Nexus 4 on Windows 7 USB, I can't see all the files on my storage :
On Windows, I can see the copied files after clearing data/cache of storage media android application
On Windows, I can't see the copied files before clearing data/cache of storage media android application
On Android (with file explorer), I can see ALL the files.
I've cleared data/cache of storage media android application because of the process.android.media hanging when copying images files.
Instead of repairing, it create a big visibility bug on my storage =(
Even with reboot, this files visibility bug persist.

Some questions about P9000

Hello all,
I just got my P9000. I updated to the latest firmware (20160419), but I notice some strange things.
I cannot add custom ringtones. I copied the .mp3 files to my internal sd-card to the ringtones folder but I am no able to select these files in the ringtone selecter in settings. The same goes for notification tone BTW. Does somebody know how to solve this?
Furthermore I am not able to see most file on the external as well as the internal storage on my PC when I connect it via the USB cable. I am able to browse through the folder list but all folders are emtpy. More of have the same issue?
Regards
Martijn
