i flashed the great rom hydrogen (android 4.04) before i was rooted and stock firmware from samsung.
now everything works fine, but MY PICTURES WERE DELETED ?!?!?!?!
pls help mee
Delete means gone deleted .
Try RECUVA that may find your deleted pictures .
But it will be far easier to restore your backup .

See if you have them in your SD card
If its their in SD card then try wiping media cache in apps or stopping and restarting media process
Also wipe cache of gallery if you have those images in SD card

If your pictures are not even shown in file explorer, better mount your SD card as USB mass storage in your PC and use softwares like recuva to recover your deleted files

Sync with Google and see if they are restored.

a full wipe using recovery mode can delete my photos in /sdcard ?! wow that's new
i 'm pretty sure that "wipe data/factory reset" wipes /data and /cache partitions and it has nothing to do with /sdcard & /sdcard/external_sd
unless if have erased all ur data on internal SD using the devices settings without entering recovery .. if so , then it's impossible to get those files back .. sorry for that
anayways as a last try u can see this app :https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=fahrbot.apps.undelete
u can also try this PC app with ur internal and external SD cards mounted as mass storage http://www.piriform.com/recuva
i tried them both with no luck
and to be clear and more specific my photos were not on my SD Card they were on the phone

"On the phone" would mean on the internal SD card of the phone, which is not wiped when doing a factory reset for the recovery or even from settings > backup and reset. All media files should be there. You must have formatted the internal SD card as well, in which case I don't think its possible to retrieve them.

Hi,
I'm new and though I've watched the noob video I hope I'm in the right place, if not please dont get angry ><.
2 days ago I've flashed into stock rom for my SG3 (GT-i9300) back from my RGUI v5 Build number: MIUI-2.8.3 IMM76D / Kernal version: 3.0.38-Siyah-s3-v1.3.9c
Ask me why? because I've had some issues trying to install official MIUI v4 from the international website and always I get error: "Status 7" with a dead android inside. (Again, Why ? because I as hoping it would make my SG3 even smoother... more responsive)
So I though perhaps flashing it from a stock rom might work, so I used Odin and everything went fine, again ofcourse I got the error and went back to CWM to restore the backup i've made before flashing anything, I dont really mind about the error right now, I've seen similar posts about it and I shall continue investigating it, What's more important is on the next phrase.
Today I found out that all my photos were deleted, after restoring my RGUI v5 rom 2 days ago ofcourse....
I'm not sure how could the situation get any better though I remember previously flashing rom's that the SD card never being touched and I guess I was wrong.
What I wanted to ask is, I just got more CWM backup files on my external SD, does anyone knows if CWM backup restores user data aswell or should I just give up ?
Helpfull tips of how to restore it could be usefull (Oh lord, please spare me I beg you, I'll pray more).
Thanks in advance.
I've flashed hundreds of times on S1, S2 and now S3 and never lost any data or photos that are on either the internal or external sd cards.
Not sure but could it be that you somehow hit format sd card in cwm by accident?

Have you searched your internal and external storage? Maybe they were only stored on a different location so that the stock Gallery cannot find them?
Storages are either completely wiped or not wiped - but you don't only loose one particular folder

I tried to install 3rd party Gallery program which scans my SD's for photos and it could nothing.... Its probably not there.
I think all is lost unless one of my backups contains them.

Unfortunately cwm backups do not backup stuff on the sd card like photos. Looks like you've lost them man.

In a more optimistic view there are worse things, and although its quite hard to swollow all I've got left to do is say thanks to every one for trying...
Thanks.
Sorry, but this is a "Well Duh..." moment.... Flashing any stock rom through ODIN will always wipe the data partition on the internal sd card. You need to backup the internal stuff onto your PC. Only a stock firmware that has been modded will allow a non-wipe flash and you usually need to be rooted as it is no longer a stock rom.
You should be able to restore a nandroid backup of a stock rom too without wiping the internal sd card as this is only putting the system data back onto your phone...

It almost looked like a life saver case but it seems to target the external SD card only.
I can't seem to find a setting to switch into internal SD...

Try to put sd card into a card reader. Can you delete that files on your PC? If not, try check disk (your sd card on PC) and after it finished you will be either able to delete those files or that files will no longer be there. I had that problem and solved it that way.
Plug phone into pc and format that way

It's not necessary to format whole sd card. It's better first to thy what I suggested. It worked for me.
As title says, I reverted to 4.1.2 stock, but I still have empty 0/0/0 folder in my internal SD and I can't remove it...
Any help, please?
same issue here, that realy sucks
rmdir /sdard/0 -rf also dont work
Format the sd card .
jje
Yup, I ended up doing as JJE suggested and wiping the card. Just make sure you have a backup (of a pre-4.2 ROM of course) to restore, or have an alternative ROM to install on your External SD Card
Connect it to pc in mtp mode...delete the folder u want...it worked for me

Hello guys , I have a xperia P LT22I , I had lots of pictures , around 10gb on the internal storage ! Then I thought I should move it to my computer , as I finished copying , it looked like it finished and the window close , so I deleted the pictures from DCIM from my memory , then I found out that they weren't copied. I really need those pictures , they are 10 gbs for God's sake ! Any help will be appreciated ! My phone is not rooted , bootloader locked.

Search recover files on PlayStore
Or you can use recuva on pc...
Mount as SD... Via SD mounter
Install recuva on pc... And find the files after connecting the phone as a usb mode...

You can try this solution that helped me before: recover data from android internal memory
It is easy to follow, so try it and hope this helps.
