Cannot see pictures when connected to computer - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is this a major issue or can it be fixed? Connecting as either MTP or PTP: neither allows one to see pictures saved as default by phone camera to DCIM folder on external SD card. my older Samsung galaxy s worked like a charm when connecting to a compute. I could see all pics but not with the SIII. Please, can someone please show me how to fix this?

experiencing the same problem..to see the pics preview(as thumbnails) i have to first transfer it to desktop. it's a hassle =(

I do not understand Samsung( I'm assuming it's their fault) why everytime they take a step forward, they take one step back. Why make things so difficult?

Something wrong your end
Test take two vids and three pictures .
Connect with Samsung usb cable phone and PC .
Open ext sd card in explorer .
Locate DCIM .
Result 3 pictures and two vids visible .
Suggest you backup your data and factory reset .

You'll have pictures alright, but you can't see the thumbnail at all.
I assumed it has something to do with MTP?

I see the thumbnails fine in MTP mode.
Then again, I'm running AOKP and not sammy based.

See them fine on aosp and cm9

Well, if I am doing a transfer of a particular pic or trying to transfer pics over to my phone I'll like to know which one I am transferring. So, yes, I will need to see a thumbnail of it. I am using the original Samsung ROM. As I said before, the first version did this without any complaints. Why should this be any different?
so, is my only result is to backup 12gigs of info and format my usb and factory reset my phone so I can see thumbnail pics? Sounds ridiculous to me.

On sammy stock rom it wont show you thumbs. Dont know why and dont know how to fix it but i know it doesnt and thats normal.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium

OK. So now I have to root my phone, so it would show thumbnails? OK. Thanks for the info. although, very inconvient Samsung!!!!! but if that is what it takes, I'll do it, but I will wait for a while as I just got this phone.

OK. Thanks but how does video help me? There is no mentioned of my issue i nthat video.

I left a message to the owner of the rom, seems that his rom is able to preview the pictures and I asked him to only make a fix for this, you can support me there to show him that more ppl are interested about this inconvenient so maybe he will fix it for us.

I too am having the same issue with a Sprint Samsung Galaxy S2. The SD Card did connect as a Mass Storage Device with no issues until I upgraded the O/S to ICS version 4.04. After upgrading it only connects as an MTP device. The USB Utilities section of the Settings Menu is no longer there. Either is the option to Connect To PC which enabled the mass storage connection. This is not a Samsung or PC issue. From what I have read this problem is unique to Sprint's version of Ice Cream Sandwich although not having access to other carriers version of ICS, I can not verify this. Perhaps users on other carriers can post more info on this. I am looking at downgrading my phone back to Gingerbread.

anyone came to a solution with this?
experiencing the same thing. i am currently on stock rom ICS.

Hey guys
I have the same problem.
I had it when on stock ICS and now on ARHD 12.0 and cant see thumbnails whwn connected to pc...i mean come on i can see thumbnails on my 7 years old usb mp3 player.:s

[Q] losing pictures

OK so I took some pictures and when I rebooted my phone the next day half of them was blank in my gallery anyone know what's up with that.
Have you actually mounted to a pc and looked on the SD? Are you stock or rom'd? Have you used any 3rd party file managers like Astro to check the contents of the card?

SD card is prolly on the fritz. Or your ROM has read write speeds to high. And if u want to be sure the data is really corrupt put the SD card into the comp with a SD reader if possible not pass thru the phone.

Until you fix the problem you might want to try Photobucket and set it to automatically upload your photos that way you at least dont lose the pictures?..

Is my Samsung GS 2 been hacked?

First time happened was back in about a month ago. One day I noticed some of my pictures were gone ( may be 15 to 20 of them ) I could not find them in any where such as SD card internal/external the strange thing was some pictures still there until today so the defective SD card is ruled out and I was still using the stock firmware 2.3.3 then I also noticed there are other pictures ( almost 100 of them ) not actual pictures they just blank but all with different file names like: My piano, A day in Hollywood etc, etc.
No body has been messing up my phones because it stays with me at all times. The question is who deleted my pictures and put a bunch of files back? Could it be happened remotely like some one using Bluetooth to mess around if the person is happened to be near by? later on I upgraded my phone to 2.3.4 through KIES and hope it will help me to solve the mystery but it did not. By now I know those pictures are long gone...
Two or three days later I upgraded my phone to 2.3.5 until I found the official FW XWKL1 here in XDA, again, upgraded.
So some days later I decided to change song for my ringtone I found out all of them have been replaced by some files with number names. 41203,41204 the list go on...When I use Astro to look for my songs and they are all there ( inside the music folder ) I went back & click one of the number file to see what kind of song and the player pops up a message saying the file format is not supported. It took me almost 30 min to figure out and delete all the number files under MUSIC then I see all my songs back.
My question is has my phone been hacked or infected by viruses/spyware? Or software glitch? I don't have data plan. To go online I use my home wifi all the time.
If some one can help I'll be really appreciated.
Sounds like a problem with the sd card or phone itself.

Sounds like the card is corrupted. Just make a backup of everything on the card, and do a full format (not quick format) of it from your computer. That should fix it. I had a similar problem too recently. New files I transferred would get deleted and old deleted files would reappear. Maybe the file table is messed or something, I don't know, but a full format fixed it for me.
Note: Preferably use a card reader, or if you mount it as mass storage from your phone, do it from recovery if you're rooted. Otherwise just mount it as you would normally and proceed.

CyanogenMod 9 ICS Preview Rom - USB Access

Good Evening
I have just rooted and installed the above ROM from the development section of the site. But i cant post in that thread with this problem as i dont have access.
My problem is that i want to use a Titanium Backup i have on my computer and re-install all of my apps etc, but i cant access the tablet as a USB device. It does not work in USB debugging mode or with it turned off (which worked fine with my honeycomb ROM (stock ROM))
Any ideas as to why i cant access it? Or any help on how i can would be appreciated.
Thanks

any idea on how i can get this to work on xp pro? i installed the stand alone samsung driver (not kies) and when it's connected via MTP, i can only transfer media files and not regular files.
What do you mean media files and not regular? When you transfer movies to it, it will ask to convert, just say no, and it will transfer the raw version.

no. what i meant is that it will just say "this is not a media file type" and will just ask whether to skip the file or cancel. meaning non media files (i.e. everything outside of music and video) will just be refused.

It's an illusion to distract developers or such, to remind us that we have nerdy hot sizzling women where our brains are stuck figuring out android stuff
foliage, I don't know how your getting that, normally when you copy stuff via USB you get only 2 options in MTP "Convert" or not.

it's weird cuz it only happens on my work computer which is xp pro. mtp works fine on my w7 laptop though. just thought someone would know why. oh well.

MTP Transfer

Hello, I really hate that the s3 doesn`t have usb mass storage, I saw someone saying that mtp is better than the clasic transfer but I really see no advantages.Is pretty hard to recover a file once deleted as you can`t assign a drive letter , you can`t use your phone while files are being transferred but the most annoying of all is that you can`t preview your pictures/videos before copying it, so tell me, how is mtp better than usb mass storage that was on s2?
My digital camera has mtp also and I CAN preview the pictures before copying them to my pc so this is possible, the question is how can I do this on my s3 also?Is very annoying that I have to check every picture and video as you don`t know what you are transferring.
Thank you for your potential answers.
I don't know which one is better but if you want UMS then there is a app called easy ums that you can download if you are rooted. Just search for it in the forums.

- Far less risk of disk corruption due to advanced filesystem technology (EXT4 instead of FAT32)
- Apps don't loose their data (which they often store on the /sdcard) while mounted on the computer
- Compatibility across all MTP-capable computers and electronic devices
- Conversion into supported format by host computer (ok, that one might not be a real advantage))

It's usually very hard to recover files on any SSD-drive since they usually rely on TRIM support. (FAT32 doesn't even have this capability though)

I usually use Samba fileshare which, since it's based on SMB, even allows mounting as a drive letter on Windows. (Not a REAL drive though, you can't recover deleted files)
Additionally it only requires a direct or accesspoint-based Wifi connection, not a physical cable between the computer and the phone.
Requires root though (mostly because of it using privileged ports)

Why does everyone just assume features to be present which do not have to, and then claim to rely on them?
There's something called Google. Due to performance- and security-reasons more and more devices will drop USB-mount in favor of MTP.
you can`t use your phone while files are being transferred

You can't use it on Samsung-based firmwares, which sucks. Cyanogenmod doesn't seem to have that restriction.

The usb mass storage was such a nice feature, I couldn`t guess that they will delete it on the s3, the advantages are meaningless as I didin`t had any problem with my s2 . why my digital camera with mtp allows to preview the pictures as thumbnails the the s3 not?Is that impossible to preview the files before copying with the s3 via usb?

Workaround : I always rename the pictures or videos in phone 1st before connect to PC. Is easier to recognise which files I want to transfer rather than waiting for the thumbnails.

Mine lets me see thumbnails for movies and pictures in MTP mode.
Maybe because I'm running CM-based instead of sammy based?
Don't use sammy crap.
Also the wireless samba filesharing mentioned earlier is fantastic, don't have to plug my phone into my pc at all now.

He's running CM, which is Cyanogenmod.
CM is a modified (enhanced) version of Google's original Android version without manufactur-specific bloatware and issues such as Touchwiz which is quite a memory-hog.
Also it usually is somewhat more stable

You could also download the XXALF2 kernel and flash it. That fixes MTP connection and you can stay on Sammy ROM. Tried it myself. ALF2 is the last kernel MTP ever worked for me with my iMac. Or cm9 or cm10....

bought a 16gb class 10 microsd, I`m happy that at least my card will work the same as s2, I can use my phone while i`m copying files and stuffs, I can preview them before and I also made 5 pictures, deleted them and was able to recover them, this 3 things weren`t possible with the ****ty mtp.The only bad thing seems to be that the burst shot photos are saved on the phone, I heard that somehow we can force the phone to save them to the microsd but I don`t know how.
May not be of any help but I personally use Airdroid for data transfer off the internal memory, aslong as you have a wireless n router I find it better than using MTP. (have had lots of tranfer freeze ups with MTP so gave up using it). Downside is atmo airdroid doesn't seem to be able to access external storage, so would use UMS, card reader, etc for that.

Reset My phone Lost everything !

So i searched the site for a while and could not find anything on how to get back information (really only pictures) after I Reset my phone back to factory. For some reason or another my phone would not allow me to sign in through Gmail even after talking with Google on the phone and confirming my email my locked phone would not unlock. I have to send back this phone by moday but was sent here by a guy from Tmobile since he said this is the Best place to go. I did try using Recovery programs both apps and on PC but was unable to find anything and apparently my phone never backed up anything to gmail ect. Any help would be greatly appreciated !!!
If this is a repost and you can shoot me in the right direction that would also be great but as i said i was unable to find anything in the Amaze section for this !

How did you attempt to recover the files with the recovery programs? Also, the more you use the phone, the more likely the deleted files will get overwritten with other junk files.

Most likely, it meant it stored the photos on the phone's internal SDCard. You should try installing Recuva, its an another recovery program. After that, connect the said phone to the computer with an USB cable and it should ask you to choose a connection type, and then choose "Disk Drive" to have the phone mount both of its internal and external storage to the computer. If you press start and then select computer, it should display 2 additional drives, both of which is from the phone. They should show up with their drive letter (Such as F:, G:, I:, K or something like that.
With the said program, choose it to search all pictures, and as for the location, select "In a specific location" and then choose the drive letter the *INTERNAL* storage is at. The drive letter is usually also represented with a label of HTC_STORAGE or INTERNAL, or something similar. After selecting the location, you can optionally enable deep scan, but it will take a long time.
If it does find something, the most important thing is to have the files transferred to a *DIFFERENT* location, such as your computer's hard drive. It is NOT wise to transfer the files onto the internal storage until you have transferred all of the found objects to a different location.
After you have transferred the files to a different location, you can optionally put the pictures back on the internal storage, or leave it on your computer. The choice is yours.

There was a program I used to retrieve my lost data. I gotta find out what it was called.
Recovah ftw. Works with android and windows.
Checkout filehippo.com I recovered files that were written over More than a few times. you wont recover everything but it's your best bet. I have heard this may work on your SIM as well but you need to get your pc to see the SIM as just another drive or something. I was able to read my sim info on another phone of mine dont remember what the program was called. Recovah is the best and...it's free, no malware, bots etc.
