Hi guys
I have this strange problem that some folders not showing on pc.
some days ago when i connected my fone to pc most of the sd card folder are shown as shortcuts and when i double click on then windows shows a script error dialog box and the folder opens in a new window....
I can find the folders ok with file managers when i use them on my fone and also found that all those folders have a '.lnk' folder with the same folder name. so i deleted those .lnk files from m sd card using es file manager hoping that it'll fix the problm bt it got worse..:crying::crying::crying:
now i can't fin d those folders when connecting to pc.. not even as shortcuts...
some1 plz help:crying::crying:

Have you tried taking the sd card out and read it directly using a sd card reader?

May be worthwhile to invest in one. From where I am, a reliable cost less than AUD20.
It comes useful when you have to recover from a corrupted sd card too.
I can find the files by typing their path..
eg: sdcard/my folder
It opens that folder but I can't find it in my SD card folder...

same sh*t happened with me about a month ago and till date have no clue how to solve this searched tons of pages on google :crying: :crying:
Well, the good news is your device is ok. The bad news, you have a virus (in your PC surely, unless you have connected your device in another PC recently).

Excuse me, need to help. I've a problem after installing de Resurrection_remix_ics_V1.3_AOKP-B31_4.0.4 room. Although de External SD Card was put in and mounted on my fone, I couldnt find it. However, i've still played muziks or opened any picture in that ext card though couldnt see them. I had installed ES explore on Play Store and it couldnt find too. By de way, i had connected my fone to PC but it had been too. I'd just seen de internal sd, not any else. So, what's happen and how can i fix it? Thx for helping.
I am pretty sure CWM will only used the internal sd memory

Sr, but it didnt work. I installed "ums" de later ver 1.1.4 in our 4rum's thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1389375. It just find my internal sd, difference's nothing. I've found a way that i could make PC to recognize internal sd n ext sd by CMW: i chose "mount and strorage" (beside my fone is being connected via USB to my PC). In this case, my PC absolutely recognizes both of sd strorage.

Go to settings->apps->all tab->media storage->clear data. Do it without your sd card in. Replace sd card and turn on phone and it will rescan the sd card correctly.
Back up anything in the /media stoage folder to your sd card before you do this.
Go to apps, all apps, find media storage and clear data, then reboot phone.
Problem solved.
Edit. Ya beat me by a min, lol.

Okay. I am having problems with my usb storage. When i connect my phone to my computer via usb it pulls up as a disk drive right. I recently had a Rom that used "Usb mass storage" to connect as disk drive which gave me a higher level of access. I put the rom zip that i am using now on the root of my sd card using the "USB mass storage". Now, with this new rom, whenever i connect my phone to the computer i dont see my rom zip file on the root of the sd card. I cant find it anywhere. Do i need to format my sd card or something? Any ideas are appreciated. Please and thanks.
Stupid question probably, but do u have it on sd2? The regular stock roms only let u access sd2 from computer. HTC sync option lets u manage sd. At least that's how it is on mine.

So. Should I mount with HTC sync instead of as a disk drive? I done rightly know if it is sd 2 right now

Sure, why not. Do u have a sd card in it or are u just using the internal sd?

Ok, well can u see any other files when u select usb storage or whatever it is? If not try reformatting the sd card on your computer. Should be able to right click on portable drive.
When u try HTC synch can u see any files on sd or sd2? On your phone make sure the Rom zip is on sd2 or extsd and not sd. If that's the case then move it over to sd2. Then try mount as usb storage.
I have been trying this entire time to download the hct sync manager without success until now. It pulls up and syncs the music and such to my phone but nothing else. I cant view anymore than before. I booted into recovery to find exactly where i put the ROM zip and it is in /sdcard
When i open the phone on my computer i am looking into /sdcard2 . Did my card become partitioned or something? Now both of those are the external sd. Any ideas to get to where i can view it all. Like truly view the "root" of my sd card? On the card it would just be / How can i view just that on my computer? And ideas? Thanks
Move the Rom file from sd to sd2 in astro, es file manager, root explorer, whatever file manager u have. Then connect to computer and select usb mass storage.
U cannot view sd(1) on computer without HTC sync. Usb mass storage option lets u view sd2 only.
If u are having issues delete your old drivers and HTC sync then install again.
I'm not going to continue to repeat myself. Really don't understand "root" of sd card. U don't need a rom to be on root to view it on computer.
What does it do when u move it to sd2 then view on computer with mass storage?

Okay. Firstly, I don't need to move the ROM. I already flashed it in recovery. All I wanted was to see if I did something wrong that limited me to only be able to see that portion of my sd card. I know that my rom does not have to be on the root of the SD card. the only reason why I brought up was too create some correlation. I appreciate your help but this was merely for curiosity sake

Are u trying to view the android file system? There's no way to really do that. Its kinda like only the computer or phone can view sd card at one time. Since phone is actively using file system.
Maybe if u could explain what u want to do I would understand more. U want to view what exactly?
Root explorer lets u view every file on your phone. Have u tried that? Copy every file on root and paste to sd2= profit? : /

i don't get this. why my samsung doesn't allow to copy and paste games in a folder to my external sd card through mtp (which can be done a while ago) but it allows to copy/paste games that was compressed in winrar?.
i don't think its an issue of copying game one at a time.... i don't know why im getting that error when im copying games in a folder and not when it is inside the winrar..
