Hi all,
I now have a folder on my Galaxy S3 after installing Wanam Lite called '0'. All the stuff that was in the root of my sdcard folder is now in the '0' folder. The only trouble is when I sync things from my computer like music my media player does not recognise the music in the '0' folder and syncs the songs all over again.
Why is this happening?
Thanks
the android 4.2 possesses "MultiUser" although mainly for tablets , but still , it's in the nature.
that's why you have folder "0"
but sadly , don't know how to solve your problem. maybe manually do so would be an idea ?
Thanks for the quick reply.
I was messing with a 4.2.1 AOKP ROM and I am guessing that is where it came from!
I'm doing a full wipe and installing from the external SD to see if I can get it back to normal. I'll report back in case anybody has the same problem in the future.
Thanks!

Hi all,
I'm the new with this 4rum. yesterday, i upgrade my phone with [ROM] LGP500 AmberHome V1.1.
This rom 's perfect & work like a charm (thanks to corwin42). but for a while, i found that my music player & also video player does not work. Although i have many music & video files in my sdcard. But whenever i open music or video player, they do not find anything.
I searched our 4fum, but found no clue. please help me solve this issue.
Do i have to reinstall music & video player? Where i can find the apk file??? And how can i install, via adb? i guess ? I used root explorer to copy music & video apk file from GT540, and try to paste in P500 system/app via root explorer. But i got "install error"
Maybe stagefright is enabled. Try disabling it via the tweak script. You can download the script from the thread in the development forum.
I 've just tried the script, but nothing solve. The same thing happen with music & video player.
please help me ...
try another music player
Okay, try this (for a little troubleshooting): Open your file manager and go to the directory where you have your files. Try playing one of them. If it plays, I think your player can't find your music for some reason. If it doesn't, I bet it's stagefright.
By the way, after you disabled sf from the script, did you restart your phone?
after try the script , i restarted...
the music player can play the file, but in the screen it show no thing... i mean no album art, no artist, no song's name ... although my files have full information and show normally before i do upgrade. it's so strange...
Thanks for your quick reply
edit: btw, i do not see the music.odex in system/app folder? is it normal ?
Strange. I have this problem for only some of my files. Do videos play? Do the same thing just like the music.
the same thing happen. When i use file manager to open, it open & play as normal. But when i open video player, it say "no video"
update: i installed another music & video player. The same thing happen. They say no file in sdcard.
I'm not sure and this is just a guess, but I think something may have went wrong with the partitioning process. Do you have a backup of your files on the memory card?
yes i have, so i will try to re - partion ?
Yes, try to repartition. Then restore your backup to your memory card. Make sure you copy your files to the FAT partition, and not the ext one
update:
Things were solved. I do not know exactly to explain. When I mount the sdcard, I noticed that there's a file which was named ".nomedia". I did not know where it come from. Just delete & things were solved. I do not have to re - partion, now my music & video player work like a charm !
Any ideas abt the file".nomedia" ????
anyone knows how can I restore de stock alarm widget??
Hey Guys,
My English is not perfect, sorry about that. I think you could help me to solve this problem.
I have cyanogen 6 the final version on my mini pro and my media apps (like gallery 3d, or MIUI music) can't find any pictures or music from sd card. But these files are in the sd card - I can open it from my computer or Es File Explorer. One gallery app said that it can't find any photos from sd, because I have to get access for it, or something like that. I think this is because of the superuser app.
Thanks for the answers.
I had the same issue initially. A reinstall of the ROM fixed it though.
I tried this. First Gallery 3d was ok, but laiter it started showing ,,there are no items in your collection. I think the files in sd card are protected or something like that. But thank you Sideromelane for your trying to help. Any more idea?
Hey check if you have a file/folder named 'nomedia.' in your sd card. If yes delete it.
Worked for me.

Make sure you look for it with your PC, as it's a hidden android file and some android explorers won't show it, it's a file called .nomedia
check whether its excluded from media scan...
Yeah! I found the file with name .nomedia and deleted it. Now it works perfect!
Thank you guys for your help!
Hi all,
I have been having a weird problem with my HTC flyer (unrooted, original GB rom) where from time to time it will create .nomedia file on the main directory of my sd card (ext_sd) so the files that i put in there do not get shown in picture gallery or media players. Usually i manually delete the file and do unmount - remount, which sometimes do the trick before the .nomedia re-appear.
On top of that, i just noticed as well, the files inside the directory in ext_sd start to go missing! The folders are still in tact, but my files inside the folders are missing..
Anyone can advise me how to troubleshoot this? Thanks!

that's weird...my guess would be a dodgy app you've installed...i would do a factory reset and not install anything other than 'official' apps from known sources, like google apps or official dropbox, for 2 or 3 days to see if it keeps happening
you could also try to format your sd card
Bump! Similar Problem; playlist files disappear after media scanner completes

Click to expand...

I've had similar problems; I'm trying to transfer playlist files to an ext_sd. I can see the files transferred to a ext_sd directory. But as the "Media scanner running" completes I literally see the files disappear!
I've reformatted the SD card several times. This has only started to happen in the past few month but I can't see any new apps that I've installed. If anything I've uninstalled apps.
Sorry but this is on a Galaxy S Wifi media player (yes I know this is the Flyer, etc thread but it's the same problem so I'm trying to avoid splitting any information that might be found...)
Any help gratefully accepted.

hi,
i know i have different device, which is samsung galaxy note 10.1
but the funny thing is, i have the same issue as well.
although i run it on official 4.1.2 unrooted.
i think, the problem is one of our apk installed. but didnt find it yet. tried to uninstalling one by one, but still no clue.
if someone had solved this problem, i'd really appreciate to hear that
Hello there.
Running Samsung Galaxy S III with CyanogenMod 10.
One day I made a backup of my phone via ClockWorkMod like every good boy should, and updated to CyanogenMod 10.1
After a few minutes I realized I didn't exactly what 10.1 just yet, and wanted to switch back to 10.
So I went to ClockWorkMod and restored my backup.
Now in my folder, I have all of the normal folders in the /sdcard/ directory, but I also have a 0 folder (which I found is a feature in 4.2.1 to allow for multiple users or something of that sort?).
Basically I want to safely remove the "0" folder, but merage all of the goodies in it with the stuff in my /sdcard/ folder, so it will be back to the way it was before I got 10.2/4.2.1 and just have all of my stuff on my /sdcard/ area.
How should I go about doing this?
Thank you!
Just use root explorer (what I used and know it works) or another file manager, then select all files, click move, then move upto the /mnt/sdcard/ folder and paste it there

Hello,
I have a Asus ROG Phone 3 and have a few questions.
Anytime I reboot my phone and go to check my internal storage, Android is automatically creating the following folders ASUS, Movies, Music, TwinApps, and Subtitles folder.
I assume this is just the default Behavior but does anyone know of a way to disable that or just to keep those folders deleted forever?
My phone is rooted, and I'm tech savvy as hell but I can't figure it out.
Anyone have a clue if the service/app that is remaking these folders is Android itself or somerhing from Asus?
I also recently switched to Android 12 and I noticed something strange, anytime I try to edit or access /sdcard/Android/OBB folder I can't edit anything in it, I can't copy or paste anything into that folder if I can even view it.
Mind you this is with root and using a file manager I've been using for years that I know works. Did something change in the background of A12?
Lastly does anyone know if there is a way to change the default save location for screenshots and/or DCIM camera folder?
Thanks

1) most of the folders are created by android Media scanner but at least one is Asus specific. in theory any app can create own folders, if allowed in permissions.
2) you need file explorer that is updated to support scoped storage so it can view media files from other apps, for example SD Maid.
3) in camera app itself one can switch storage location to MicroSD card. not sure about screenshots, though.
