Missing Playlists??? - LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Something is been bothering me since my G3 days, and seems on my V10 has the same reaction.
I am using the STOCK LG MUSIC player, and i have all my Audio Files on the 200GB FREE SD Card.
Every time I unmount the SD card, all the songs I added to my playlists are empty....remounting the SD card doesnt resolve the issue.
Seems I need to re-add all the songs again to those playlists.
Is there a way to back up the Playlist, or to retain all the song listings?

Move them onto the phones storage from SD storage. That will retain them.
Otherwise, reformat the SD card and re add them back onto the card. Sounds like you might have an issue with the card.

Sprint Music Problems?

This is the second time this has happened. The Sprint Music app appears to be damaged. It doesn't recognize much of the music that is on my card. Is there any way to fix it without a hard reset? (not sure why I care! I mostly use Kinoma).
yeah sprint music sucks....my songs only plays the first 30-40 sec and then it will stop if i got 4gb or more...i just removed it from tf3d and i use s2p
I think I fixed it. For some unknown reason, my TP had a folder named Storage Card and was calling my card Storage Card2. There wasn't anything in the Storage Card folder so I deleted it and reanamed Storage Card 2 to Storage Card. Now it finds the music. I guess it only looks in a folder called Storage Card and ignored Storage Card2. Unfortunately you can't tell Sprint Music where the music files are. They should fix that. At any rate, I don't use it much, anyway. I just wanted it work right. Now if we could get the GPS right, the battery life better, etc., etc.

Putting music on SD card?

I had mp3s on the internal storage, and music app picked them up fine. But I got an SD card, and wanted to use that for music. I transfered the music to the SD card but the music app doens't show them even after scanning for media
Edit: I realized I'm not even sure how to access the SD card from the FS
Edit2: Ugh nevermind, turns out the files on the card just got wiped after I transferred them
Have you formatted your card? I just created a folder on mine called music and copied my music to that

Ok something keeps deleting my music, and I can't figure out what
The SGS 2 has a good taste in music app that deletes a lot of stuff .

Music player not setting music on external SD

I just realized that my music player is not picking up on the music files I have on my external SD. I have them under the folder "Music" on the SD card's root. I copied songs over to the phone's internal memory - aka internal SD's "Music" folder, and the stock music player was able to see them. I'd like to keep the music on the SD card - is this not possible?
It is totally possible... I use WinAmp (primarily) and have about 500 sings on my SD Card in the Music folder and no music at all on the internal storage, it works fine, the stock player and Google Music see them as well.
Try going into Settings-Apps-<player your using> and Force Stop, then Clear Data, then launch the player again... remember if you have a lot of music it might take the app a while to load and index everything.

Well that's good to hear. But I just tried it and no luck. It's not even indexing or searching. I am using the default music player and it starts up like there's an empty card. I am actually now on newtoroot's one XxX rom, and the default player is doing the same as stock Google music also behaves the same.
I've tried unmount/remounting the sd card, no luck.
Not sure if this matters, but this SD card is a carryover from my Thunderbolt. So it has a lot of apk backups and other crap. Also, I noticed that I actually lost my video file collection on the SD card somewhere along the process. I am not exactly sure, but I think it's when I first moved it to the Rezound, because now that I think about it, I don't ever recall seeing the couple episodes of Futurama I keep on my SD card.
The original folder structure was on SD/media/video and SD/media/music. The video folder is now empty. I've since moved the music folder to the SD's root. There are no .nomedia files in the folders.
Hmmm... interesting, I didn't think the Rezound was that picky, is the music directory in the root of the sd card properly capitalized as "Music"? that is how it is on mine, and the files in it are just ordinary MP3 files...
How many MP3's do you have in there... I have around 500 and when I open Music after changing anything (even just adding one file) the little revolving circle in the My Library bar sits there for a solid 3-4 minutes before anything shows up. WinAmp takes just as long initially, but if you add or delete a file it sees the change in seconds.
I just tried adding a file to the /media/music directory on my SD Card and it showed up fine, but the stock Music player also took another 3-4 minutes to re-index everything before the list populated at all. WinAmp had it in the list before I could scroll down to that artist.
Are you sure the SD card is mounting correctly? Go to Settings -> Storage and scroll down to SD Card and make sure it shows "Unmount SD card" and it is not grayed out and it shows used and available space on the card.
FWIW, on this phone, I am on the stock 3.14.605.12 OTA ROM.
Yep it is. And I have only about 500MB worth of mp3s, so not that many. The thing is, the music player isn't even trying to search for it I read another post on droid forum with similar problem last night (lost the link). I think that poster mentioned maybe too many stray apk backups is causing the search to choke. The SD card is definitely mounted correctly - I just unmounted and remounted again to make sure.
Yep I was on that same stock OTA before this one XxX rom. Same result.
I am going to swap out sd card with the stock rezound 16gb, which should be completely fresh except for a nandroid backup.

Hmmm... could be the issue with too much other "junk" on the card I guess, mine is fairly clean, 50 or so camera shots, a handful of backups and some some other stuff, less than 500MB in total besides the music.
Seems odd that the Music app isn't even trying though, have you tried another player like PowerAmp or WinAmp? WinAmp Pro with the Album Washer plug-in is the BOMB, sync music over WiFi to the phone if you have WinAmp on your PC too, pretty sweet.
Yep it's working now. That must have been it - the thunderbolt SD card was too cluttered. I suppose I'll just have to go in and clean it up a bit. Sheesh Rezound, what's next, gonna make me clean my apartment too?

[Q] What is the best way to swap the internal/external sd card in CM 10 (HTC amaze)?

I don't care necessarily about moving apps or the data folder, just want the best script or way to swap the media files and such so I can download things like TED videos or offline songs from Music Unlimited to my much larger micro sd card.
Thanks.

[Q] Question... Weird sound permanently in some of my songs.

Things you should know:
Rooted S4 running 4.4.2 (stock kernal)
So first off I torrent a lot so may be the songs, but affected songs from different source all have the same weird noise....
Second I bought a 130 GB SD card off eBay for $20
Third about a month ago before this I started noticing this problem, I corrupted my SD by unmount in it because I was having app installation issues. [Fixed that problem] and I plugged the SD card into my laptop and ran a Windows program through cmd that wiped the drive and fixed it. And I whent ahead and formatted it once I put it back in my S4.
May be a dead giveaway but occasionally Camera pics saved to my SD card, a grey bar starting from the bottom covers up the image and then after a while says corrupt. But only occasionally not on all pictures...
Finally it's rooted and I wanted to be able to edit my music on the SD card, so I ran NextApp SD Fix.
Background:
Once the drive wiped, I lost all my music. So I took to tormenting to get my music back... Though I did not have an SD card reader on my laptop and for some reason have trouble connecting my phone to it I had to transfer my songs on a thumb drive. First batch, I already had the SD card out so I transferred about 3GB worth of music on that directly. Next I transfered directly to the SD through my phone (USB to transfer from computers).
Question:
Songs from both batches where experiencing weird sounds *hard to explain* permanently in the song on my phone, but not original computer. Is this due to my SD card being faulty, an issue transferring, or the fact that I used SDFix?
