I have a strange problem. I have rooted Alcatel Idol 3 with cm-12.1. I would like to save my photos into external sd. I have changed camera storage into external sd.
When I take a photo, it makes folder /storage/sd1/DCIM/Camera and saves photo there. So far, so good.. but when I after a while check the folder, everything inside DCIM is disappeared?!?
I can however save files into external sd.

I have just noticed that all of my data on both my SGS2 internal memory and my SD card has gone!
It's totally bizarre! All my apps are fine, my home screens are fine, but all photos, music, and other files are gone.
My internal storage now only contains .android_secure and LOST.DIR, but the weirdest thing is the SD card. It contains all of the default and app folders that were previously on the internal drive, except without any of the user data (e.g. DCIM is empty where it should have photos & videos galore in there). However, the SD card does now contain 9 files called "FILL0", "FILL1"... through to "FILL9" and all of them are 1GB in size. These "FILL" files have no windows file extension.
Does anybody know what has happened here? It looks like the phone has suddenly taken all the internal data and copied it to the SD, while at the same time removing anything in any way precious to me and possibly storing it in these "FILL" files.
Can anybody make sense of this?
One correction to make on what I said above. I mislabeled my drives, so it's actually the SD card which has the 2 default files on it, and the phone memory that has the rest. There was no copying from the phone memory to SD after all, there was purely deletion of the entire SD, and then deletion & this weird dump of everything into "FILL" files on the phone memory.
I am running Resurrection Remix V1.4 and have just seemingly run out of memory on my internal sd...i have a 32GB external and wondered what and how i could move.... I can't see an option on the AOKP camera to change the storage location of photographs..
anyone? i think it is worth formatting the internal SD card...will this mess with the rom or just clear stuff like photos videos and apps? how can i restore those?
better you manually move your stuff from int.SD to Ext SD, like images/songs/videos
copy paste DCIM to Ext SD and delete DCIM folder....it will automaticaly created again.
whoops i thought no one was going to reply so i reformatted the internal...everythings fine and it seems to have got my space back on the internal card but in the gallery there are just black squares....how can i fix that even if it means losing my photos?
Gents,
Got a bit of a strange problem. A few weeks ago I flashed resurrection 3.1.3... so far so good. Yesterday I watched some pictures with my friends. Today ALL my pictures and other jpg. images are gone. Just vanished overnight... Not only from my external SD but also from my internal SD. It's unbelievable!!!
The map structure on my external SD is still intact. Mp3, pdf etc. are still there but everything with extension .jpg is gone. Strangest thing is that the image map of WhatsApp on my internal SD is empty as well. Tried to recover the pics on my external SD with DeCuVa (put SD card in card reader) and for some it worked. Unfortunately all the recovery progs don't recognize the internal phone SD because you don't see 2 removable drives like it used to be with earlier versions but you see the phone device.
Does anyone know with which prog I can clone my internal SD so I can try to recover the pics on my internal SD as well. Or maybe another sollution???
thnx a lot!!!
ciao
I have a Moto Droid Razr Maxx, rooted running latest JB 4.1.2, (98.72.16.XT912.Verizon.en.US) anyways this problem has been occurring from day one and it is annoying as crap. Hope someone can tell me what to do. In my Camera settings I chose to send all photos taken to my 16GB external SD card and have verified the Camera settings over and over but for some reason every few pics I take it will create a DCIM folder on my internal storage and a Camera folder inside that and my pics start ending up in there. So.....when I open the Gallery once again I have two Folders named Camera, with a few different pics in it and then I still have my Camera folder on my external card. I move my pics from the internal storage to the external storage manually, then delete the DCIM folder from the internal storage. I then repeat the process and, well told you all that above. It was doing this before rooting and it is still doing it after. Being that I am rooted though, is there any setting in my build.prop file that controls this? Just grasping at straws here. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I can however save files into external sd. Yes, I can but they disappear, if they are in folder. I put some .mp3 files into root of my card and those didn't disappear. However, I can't listen them, because they misses.
