My files used to appear on the file manager before but recently i noticed that it stopped showing.
When i view it from the file manager (tried ES and the stock one) both resulted with an Empty Folder screen. Tried to add a new folder and it worked but disappeared after refreshing.
I can properly see my files when i access my micro sd on my computer.
Don't know what to do
Help!

I recently flashed a custom ROM here but unfortunately, the files in the SD Card (newly created) aren't showing when I connect my phone to PC, only the default folders are shown (the Android, .android_secure, LOST_DIR folders, etc)
I tried restarting my phone but the files won't show BUT when I use the file manager on my phone, I can see those files. I tried also re-updating the Driver files but nothing happens, or even using the SDK, still I can't see them.
Anyone can help?

Hi. I have read a lot of post about media scan in i9300 and I cannot figure out what happens to me.
I have a folder of image , (for example whatsapp image) the folder was stored in the internal memory (mnt/sdcard/Whatsapp/media/whatsapp_image)
I copied some images to the folder from computer and my whatspp downloads the new image sent by my friends.
the most interesting thing is Gallery only shows the image downloaded by whatspp. The other images that I put into the folder from computer are missing.
I use "ASTRO File Manager" to see what happens. I found that the file manager cannot even generate the thumbnails of those image I copied from computer to the folder. It only have the thumbnails that downloaded by whatspp. (On the other words, only the image with thumbnails are shown in Gallery and they are downloaded by whatsapp)
But I can still open the image without thumbnails by pressing them and choosing "Use Gallery to open", It can be viewed perfectly. It proves the images are not damaged.
(P.S. If I use My Files, the stock file manager, all images have thumbnails. But the images are still missing, nothing changed or improved)
Then I use File Managers, (My Files, Stock File Manager, and ASTRO File Manager) to move the images without thumbnails to external sd cards (mnt/exSdCards/Temp). After that, ASTRO File Manager can find the folder and generate the thumbnails, Gallery can show the images after rescanning the media.
However, after I move the images back to internal memory (I even create a new folder under root of the internal memory), the thumbnails gone and gallery cannot show them after rescanning media.
Does anyone know what happened and how to solve it? I know I may use other Picture Viewer to "solve" this, but I hope to find out the real solution first. Thank you.
Sorry my thread are too long and my english is poor.
I may post some screenshots later if you want.
I installed Easy Unrar, Unzip & Zip from Goolge play to unzip a zip folder on my phone. It didn't work at all, besides, it created a folder (with strange character name) which can not be deleted. It's 0 byte, can be opened but is empty. Can not create anything inside. I tried deleting with Astro file manager, nothing happened, the folder still there. I tried deleting from my PC, it said the 'Cannot delete the folder. Storage is protected. Remove the write-protection and try again'. The strange folder is on my internal memory. I don't have a memory card installed. Please help.
I can delete any other things on my phone. The file name of the zip I tried to unzip is not English, which I suspect might be the problem?

ive encountered this too. can someone help us or did you already fix this? I think it has a chinese character like.apk but when you open. it opens as if it was a folder. but you cannot delete, rename, move or copy. even through desktop operations failed. and also its shows the date accessed in a year 1970. i tried to edit my date settings hoping that I might delete it but this note 2 has a minimum of year 2000. help thanks
Try to install clean master and open it. Press junk file and standard. Allow it to scan. It shld have a residual folders place. Just scan it with standard and advanced. See if it is still thr. Btw. U can unzip zip files with File Expert.

Hi guys,
I was checking my download folder today using the default Files app and saw this .apk file that I didn't download. Naturally, I wanted to remove the .apk but when I tried to remove it, the function failed.
I tried to get more information but there's nothing I can do to the .apk. I can't open it, copy it, rename it, etc.
Next step, I plugged my phone into my computer and looked at the internal Downloads folder via USB file transfer. I could not see that specific .apk, even with view hidden objects on.
So, I went into my file manager app (Amaze with root access) and went to the emulated Downloads folder, same thing. The folder did not show the .apk at all.
I opened up SD Maid and see if they can find and remove the file, but nope, didn't work.
Now, I'm thinking it's probably just a bug with the Files app so I deleted user data and cache, restarted my phone and all that but still, that .apk persists.
I'm at my wit's end and I have no clue how to remove this file. Any help will be appreciated.

Hello there!
I rooted my OP5T and now I have a problem...
I installed latest magisk.
I can't see any files in file manager on my phone, also can not transfer or view files via my computer.
I just see phone in 'my computer' but nothing is in this folder and I can't drag files into this folder.
On phone in file manager I can see folder "Android" and then "data" and then a few folders but I don't see anything in these folders... I can't create and delete anything by clicking add folder or delete something but installing apps from google play works.
I tried to send the file via 'airdroid' and there is no folder on my phone visible either.
Can anyone help me out with this problem? I tried wipe dalvik but same.
Re-flash Stock ROM.
