after i transfer any files (pictures, videos, music) to my Vibrant's SD card from my PC, it is always corrupt when trying to open on it my phone. pictures and videos dont open. music is just a quick snippet. even trying to open it back up through my PC its corrupt, but wasnt when i first to loaded it. in order for me to get any files on my SD card, i have to remove it from my Vibrant and put it into my G1 and do it through there. any idea what could be wrong? thanks for any thoughts/advice
???? i dont want this thread to get lost.. i really would like to figure this out
Have downloaded some videos onto the phone via kies but some of them have transferred badly. After an age of looking I have absolutely no idea how to delete them.
They don't appear in the files folder, you cannot tap and hold to delete, and there is no delete option on the video. Does anyone know how I can get rid of these videos.
Thanks
If you know the location open via My Files menu and delete .
Or use USB mass storage mode and delete via PC .
If you dont know the location check where Kies put them .
jje
Thanks
Gone into my files and there is nothing in there at all.
Cannot see anywhere on Kies to show me where it has put them
Gone into the USB mass storage mode when you plug into the PC and again you get the same folders as on the phone and all are blank
This is a major screw up by samsung if you can't just select a video and delete it as I am struggling here. Are there any apps out there to find these files?
I ran into the same problem yesterday and I couldn't figure it out!
I don't actually understand the 'file structure' on this phone. Where is everything stored?
When I connect my phone to the PC, I get two distinct drives, H: and F:
From what I can see the INTERNAL phone memory (which comes up as H: on the PC), is located at /mnt/sdcard.
What is the 'external_sd' folder that's located at /mnt/sdcard/external_sd actually for? It doesnt seem to correspond to the sdcard that's in the phone.
How to I access the sd card mamory from file manager within the phone?
I've tried looking for the videos I recorded using ES File Manager, but I cant find them anywhere...
Glad I am not alone with this one. Samsung need to sort it quick. At the moment I am wondering do you fill up the internal card and thats it because you cannot delete the videos?
external_sd is a link to whatever memory card you put in, it seems weird to me as well. In astro under tools - sd card usage this gives a treesize type view which might help track down your missing files.
downloaded astro file manager and done a search on the file name and has come upp with
/mnt/sdcard/DCIM/Camera/*****
**** being the file name
I then press and hold and on the menu that opens select show directory and there they all are. I then press the multi icon and was then allowed to select the file and delete it.
Thank goodness for that!!!!!!
Thanks for the help
In fact I now go into the files folder in the applications screens, then DCIM and now a camera folder is there with them all in. That was not there before but is now after installing and searching with Astro file manager

The sdcard/DCIM/Camera folder is where the pictures and videos taken with the camera go to, if it wasn't there before, I assume you've never taken a picture or recorded a video before.

These videos came from Kies and they were nowhere to be seen until I downloaded astro file manager. What is strange now is the DCIM folder says 0 as though it is empty but it is now full of these videos from Kies when you open it. All very strange and it only appeared after I did the search. before it there was nothing even in astro file manager.
I did take 2 photos the other day and again they have suddenly appeared in this folder

Thanks for that. That's what I thought, but the first time I tested it it didn't work, I just tried again and it worked just fine. I put a file onto the sdcard and it appeared in the external_sd folder.
One other question, /sdcard and /mnt/sdcard both seem to point to the internal memory. Is there a reason it's listed twice?

So I have an sdcard in my Nook tablet... 16gb sandisk.. brand new
I put some divx avi movies on the card in the "MyFiles/Videos"
All was fine and mx player played them fine
Then I needed to do the 1.4.0 rollback so I did a full wipe "Deregister and Erase"
That apparently deletes all files in the "MyFiles" subfolder in both the main unit AND your sdcard.
So I had to add them back after I was re-rooted and now put them into a new folder in the root of the sdcard called "Videos"
But again.. after a reboot of the device without erasing anything... I lost all the videos in there. Anyone else seeing this?
All my other files are still there. I have a folder of apk files that the market won't show me like Amazon TV apk and stuff and those remain untouched. But its like any videos folder get hunted down and erased
Gonna rename it to myvidz and hope for the best.
Make sure it's in /sdcard/My Files and not /media/My Files.
I'm a noob to android, but I thought I would share something along the same lines.
Initially I also seemed to feel that files I copied to the sdcard would appear and disappear in the custom B&N library viewer. The thing that fooled me in the library is it lists My Nook | Memory Card. I assumed this was a the hierarchy / crumbs links path to the sd card, but eventually I realized that this is a toggle menu to switch between internal and sd card memory which ever one is darker is active.
I have successfully rooted my Nook using my MAC and the NARS method. I believe this is considered softrooting. I do like the B&N Nook Reader and was hoping to continue to use it. I do not have a MicroSD card yet, but it is on the way.
The main problem I have is properly storing and utilizing files in the extra 15GB of internal space.
If I want to get files on my nook, I hook it up through the USB to my Mac. It only recognizes "MyNook"-- the 1GB of space that B&N allows me to use.
As many have suggested, I installed Root Explorer and can successfully move files out of that 1GB and into the extra 15GB space. However, those files do not show up in my Nook Reader software and it does not look like I can browse to those folders in the Nook Reader.
Am I going about this all wrong?
Is there a way to use my Mac to access that extra internal space?
Is there any way to get the Nook Reader to recognize the files in that space?
Lastly: I figured I would just install Aldiko to read those files, but it says that because it can't mount the SD card, it can't find files. But I don't have an SD card-- I have 16GB of internal storage!

I had the same issue and solved it as follows:
I store my media (books, videos, mp3's, etc. ) in the /data/media directory - I get about 12Gb free. I set the directory to be R/W using Root Explorer and changed the permissions to allow "others" full read, write and execute (again using Root Explorer). I was then able to access the files in /data/media with my Ebook reader (Cool Reader), mp3 player (I use Mort Player) and videos (I use MVideo Player). I then changed the /data directory to RO.

Thanks so much for the suggestions. So, my other question is-- can you utilize the native Nook Reader to see these files? If not, can you reassign the small book icon in the notifications tray to go to Cool Reader-- or will that only go to the native Nook Reader?
Lastly, does anyone have an answer regarding accessing the internal storage via USB/Mac?

Sorry, still very confused. I navigated to the /system/app and the Library.apk was in there already. I launched it and used Package Installer to reinstall it, but it works exactly the same as before.
I also installed Cool Reader and it doesn't seem to be able to navigate below the /mnt/media directory. Is it a permissions thing?

I had a similar thought about putting my movies in that same folder, so I followed your steps. When I plugged my NT into my computer, however, only the same two options popped up---MyNook and my sd card. So far as I can tell, the computer is still not recognizing the /data/media folder, so I'm still unable to sideload into that folder.
Have I missed a step? Am I doing something wrong? Do I need another program to "help" me sideload into that folder?

You will not be able to see the internal storage on a PC (unless your PC is a Linux box) - it can only be seen on the device using a file explorer such as Root Explorer or ES File Explorer.
You sideload there by placing a file in one of the two partitions that you can see and then moving/copying it with one of the two aforementioned file managers.

Yeah, I was afraid of that. Ah well... it'll do until they figure out how to safely expand the MyNook partition.

Hey, I can access the root and thus internal storage and also the mounted ext-sd card in Snowball's mod via my PC (Win 7). Try googling it to d/l it for free.

Okay, so I ran the script to give me access to my internal storage. Someone else is telling me I now need to put whatever files I want MX Player to see, in /mnt/internal. But you clearly state that you put them in /data/media. Either way, MX Player isn't seeing them, and I've got all rights checked on all of these locations.
What am I missing?

Why are you running a script? I think that you are making it needlessly complicated for yourself. If you just follow what I did here: I store my media (books, videos, mp3's, etc. ) in the /data/media directory - I get about 12Gb free.

It might be easier to go back to the original clrboot file and start over. And make certain that the media partition that you place your stuff in is /data/media - there should be about 12 Gb free.

Because I was pointed to this, as the method to get acccess to all of our storage: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=20401344&postcount=72
I followed your steps above, which is why I asked at all... because it didn't work for me. I will try going back to the original clrboot file. I assume I just rename it back to .sh and reboot, correct?
Where can I see how much space is free, once I do that?
*****UPDATE*****
So, not sure why this happened, but apparently the actual video files, which were in folders on my SD card, DID NOT move with the folders when I copied them to both /data/media/videos and /mnt/internal/videos. Just empty folders.
So, I need to get them back on my Nook, as I've since deleted them from my SD card, and try this again.
Funny, an app not showing me what's not there...

Well no real harm done. Why no try with one file first instead of a whole folder - I usually do that when unsure - if it works then your good to go.

Yeah, doing that now. Something funky happened when cutting and pasting a folder with *.avi files within in. Only copied the folder but, of course, deleted the *.avi files. Next time, I'll know to only use copy and paste, and delete later.
UPDATE: Okay, here's what I did:
1. Deleted the clrboot file I had copied previously. Renamed original one back to .sh. Rebooted.
2. Tried getting all of this to work without redoing the clrboot file thing again. Didn't work.
3. Copied the clrboot zip from this site again, and copied it to /system/bin, after naming the original one with the .bk ext.
4. Rebooted.
5. Created a "Videos" folder in /data/media.
6. Set the /data/media folder's permissions to allow everything. All boxes checked.
7. Copied one *.avi file to /data/media/videos.
8. Specified that folder in MX Player.
9. MX Player doesn't see it.
UPDATE TO UPDATE: It sees it! Yea! It's seeing it in /data/media/videos and /media/My Files/videos. I don't need it in both places, but was playing around with different locations.
Now, if I could just get MX Player to stop crashing on me.

The zip file is supposed to be unzipped.
In addition not all of the permission boxes are set on my clrbootcount.sh, though I use Root Explorer.
A Further Thought
Can you try to put back the original clrboot script, reboot and then try to load a file into your data/media partition - I am concerned about the results of using the modded script. I attached the original clrbootcnt file - it has a doc extension - please change clrbootcnt.doc to clrbootcnt.sh and then try to use it.
Hey guys,
I've tried he stock music player, mixzing and xplay and nothing can find the music on my SD Card. I've used nearly every current Rezound Rom and they all have this same behavior. I've tried reformatting the SD, clearing data from all music/media search related apps, remounting the SD, fixing permissions, different folders, upper/lower case folder names, etc.
I've searched and found similar threads for different devices but no answers that worked.
Ideas anyone?
Thanks!
Use double twist. It's like iTunes for every device but apple. It'll let you load your music library and make it easier to load music in the future.
Also for reference my music is in sdcard/extsd/music/artists/album/songs
All I did was connect to my phone via USB, open the drive letter right after HTC STORAGE (the next drive letter should be the ext SD card), then make a directory called Music (capitalized), and copy the MP3 files to it, moved 451 files and then disconnected... Everyone show up in the stock music player and WinAmp, although it did take a few minutes for the list to populate.
I am pretty sure when you copy music to the SD card, it has to be in a directory called "Music", you can't just copy them to the root of the card.
I too have always just put all my music in a "Music" folder on the root of my sd, however depending on the device I've had players find music directly at root.
Have you tried using a like manager like astro to navigate to the files and play them directly?

You should be able to copy them everywhere and the music player should find it. I have music in "AmazonMP3" on the root, "musicdownload" where I get my music from Box, "Music" and even a song or two at root and "My Documents\Music" as well as a few in the "Download" folder as I've downloaded through http.
I'd say clear data from the music app in app management and let it rescan the card for data. Also, the phone can read WMA, MP3, MP4, M4A and maybe OGG. If you're trying some other formats I don't know if it'll see it.
P.S. On a funny note, the captcha just had me type TWATUS ... LOL
ROM Manager Sucks
I'll bet you have ROM Manager installed! The last two ROM Manager updates (including todays) for some dumb reason put a file called ".nomedia" in the root of the SD Card. This file prevents all media below it from being indexed.
Browse your SD Card and look for the file ".nomedia" in the root. Delete it and you will see all your media again.

I also face same problem and ur reply realy help me
Thanks for all your suggestions guys. I don't have a .nomedia file anywhere on the phone. I have all the music in a "Music" folder. I've tried everything in this thread as well as a dozen other things from other threads. It just doesn't work.
Weird thing is... the Gallery also can't see any photos/pics on the SD Card. It makes me think its a format problem or something? My SD is formatted FAT32? Should it be different?
How much extra "Junk" do you have on the SD Card... I just helped someone earlier today who had moved a microSD card from a Thunderbolt to the Rezound and it had a lot of extra stuff (old Nandroids, TiBu backups, and lots of other various files) and had the same issues. Copied everything off to a PC and formatted the card in the phone, then copied over the same music in the same folder and it was recognized like normal. Not saying this is the fix, but just did it this morning and it worked fine for someone else.
look in google play for a sd rescan app. Have that scan your card, that will help sometimes.

OMG!!! This worked! I had moved everything off the SD and formatted with the phone like a dozen times but always put everything back all at once. When the only thing on the card was music it found it right off.

Major thanks for your suggestion. I have an HTC One X+ with stock rom (it's new, I haven't got round to customising yet ) I copied Music folder on my old One X to the new One X+.
The stock music app could not find any of my music. Using the sd rescan app worked and made it find it. I was getting very annoyed with it, so thanks again.

I have an HTC one V with android 4.0 an tried to figure out how to get the apps to play mp3 files on the storage card.
the phone stores pic and video's in a directory called DCIM\100MEDIA\
I copied the song files (mp3) to that directory with the pics and videos
the default player , winamp , and doubletwist all found the songs.
hope this helps you or any one else trying to play songs on there storage card with android
