How old is your SD card?

only about a year old. all of my music is on that card as well and so far no issues with the music. only issues is with pic taking and managing.

Not on this phone, but had once a corrupted SD, which did the same. Was reading data, but could not write.
I suggest to try out a different SD (if you have one laying around). If that works, copy all of your content from the current SD to a computer and try to reformat it.

panos are just getting up ans walking away

so my panos and just them not any picture are just gone outta my albums no other picture at all and its not like i dont have room on my sd card...im on cm9 2.1 and i really want them iv been looking around and seeing if they are in a cash folder or something but no luck. anyone have ideas about what happen to them? its not like my pocket is smart enough to just del my pano pictures and no others....please help me out

I hope somebody can help me. I'm excited, because Joker got the camera working in CM9 0.2.0, so I installed it, but now I can't find any of my pictures!
I tend to take a lot of panoramic pictures, so many that I have this cute little nickname for them. I call them "panos". Isn't that cute? Anyway, I know they take up a lot of space, but I've got plenty of room on my SD card.
I can't understand where they might have gone. My photos are pretty important to me (I take pictures of really cool things like my **** when I'm using the toilet [which is why I use panoramic mode], and my sister when she's in the shower), so I'd really like to get them back.
I've looked all through my SD card, even through directories that look like maybe they're just cache directories, but I can't find my photos for the life of me.
I thought maybe I "pocket deleted" them, but surely I wouldn't have accidentally deleted all of them in my pocket, would I have?
Please help me. I'm not sure I can catch my sister in the shower again.

First of all, if you're running 0.2.0, I recommend upgrading to 0.3.3. It's really tits. But if that's what you're running, and you didn't edit vold.fstab, then you might not be seeing your SD card at all. Or, if you are running a new version, or you did edit your vold.fstab, but you have "Use internal storage" checked under Settings->Advanced, then your SD card is mounted at /emmc, and your internal memory is what's mounted at /sdcard.
So in either case, you may be looking at the contents of internal memory instead of your SD card, so what you expect to be there isn't.
If you took them with the stock camera, your pictures will be in /sdcard/DCIM/Camera as long as that's where your SD card is mounted.
Oh, and don't worry about those pics of your sister. I've got better ones I can send you.

SD Card music & photos disappear.

Could be my card but only after I performed my 1st reset, this Houdini act started.
The content is still on the card but the Music & Gallery application will randomly decide you don't have any. Of course I panicked at 1st, even with a backup on the PC but looking in Astro file manager, it was all still there.
A little annoying.
Edit:
WTF, only Astro sees the content. Google Music didn't either.

I have a somewhat similar problem in that the phone reads the card but not the music.
Mine was after a restart as well (though it wasn't by choice, I was out Saturday night and pulled my phone out to see that it had reset and recovered from an error and wanted to send a report to HTC).
I assume you haven't made any headway on yours without a post, I tried removing and reseating the SD card but it didn't help. It reads the space correctly and everything, but nothing will read the MP3s on there.
Kind of annoying, really liked rocking out with the Beats on this phone.
U guys using the HTC app and what not? My phone has yet to have pics or music disappear.... Have you taken everything off your sd card did a scan for bad sectors on it and then did a full format on windows then on the phone...
Sent from my EVO using xda premium
It does come back eventually but it could be either bad sectors, the way the OS scans the new SD location or the card speed is slow. Like right now, everything is working fine. I might clean the card & keep the mp3s & pics on the root of the card.
I was going to get an 64GB sxdc card before the month is out.

Yeah I know on the 3d and what not the card had issues often with things disappearing unroll I formated it and scanned it... Then eventually I had to swap it out lol I used it as a USB stick basically always transferring files...

Try this app out: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.addz.mediascanner&hl=en
It'll force the OS to rescan the memory for media files.
If all else fails, try this. I had to do this when running into a similar issue.
Are you guys using quality sd cards or knock-off! I ran into similar problems with cheap eBay knock-offs.
I buy genuine SanDisk now and never have sd trouble anymore!

The card in my case is a 32GB SanDisk (no class listed) from Verizon.
Tried both & still getting a headache over it. Pissed that Astro has no problem seeing it but Gallery & Music play peek-a-boo with my content.
I seem to be the only one having this issue so I guess it's the speed of the card maybe? I hope anyway.
For now I moved my Photos & Music to the phone's 9GB.
I am having a similar issue. I've had my EVO LTE for 7 days and bought a new 32GB microsd card for it as well. After almost every restart or power off my sd card will unmount and I have to go into settings to remount it.
This also sometimes happens after the phone has been sitting for several hours, such as when I woke this morning (this is rare).
In my case it is either mounted and all date intact or NOT mounted and therefore inaccessible. The same card works fine in my EVO 3D so i'm thinking this is a bug in the ROM or perhaps the port for the card.
I'm LOVING this phone... getting great battery life, can't keep it out of my hands but there are a few annoying minor bugs so far but I do not regret purchase at all.
I have hardware version 003 and also suffer from the WiFi sleep bug even though I have it set to never sleep and have dedicated it to a single frequency (it sleeps whether on 2.4 or 5GHZ dedicated).
Beginning to wonder if this ROM has some issues managing services after prolonged idle times.
Via Settings>Storage
I formatted my card through HTC's Storage options in settings (done by 1. UnMount & 2. Earse Storage Card) & moved my music & photos from Phone Storage to Storage card.
I noticed Android will auto create folders so hopefully this act means things will work as intended.
So far so good.
I used this option exclusively to move the files rather than moving them by other means.
So far so good. Expecting the worst every 15 minutes, lying with the claim that I have nothing.
I had an issue with Google music not seeing mp3s on my sd card. Going to settings and erasing the cache/data fixed it.

This worked great!. thanks for the help
Still doesn't work for me :'( I guess no music for me
Happened to me with my music and some photos after a reset or fresh flash..I noticed that for.some reason the files moved to internal storage ..I just copied and pasted the whole file where the music and photos were located to where the they were on my sd card..and it worked..I'm not used to having internal storage..taking a little while to get used to
Sd Card
I had this happen yesterday. Music and gallery disappeared. I am using the 8 gig card from my ogevo4g. I believe the problem is the card slot. If you push the card all the way down into the slot the intermittent disappearing of gallery and music happens. I pulled the card and put it back in but not pushing it all the way to the bottom of the slot and no more issues.
I love the phone but I'm not sure the htc build quality is there on this one like it was with the original evo?

[Q] Icons keep changing to little green android guys

Hello everyone, I seem to keep having an issue with my desktop (no sure if that is the right word to describe the main pages where you icons and widgets are) icons will change to images of the android guy. It seems to happen randomly and frequently when I reboot my phone. It never happened on stock but I am currently running Team Perfection's Objection #2 with its RC1. I have flashed it twice and still have the same problem. Both times I flashed, I did a clean install. I flashed the dalviek cache, wiped the partition, fixed permissions...... This issue has also come when I tried Goldie 5 rom also. So far to remedy the problem, I delete all the icons and then I add the shortcuts back. Not a deal breaker, just annoying and I am curious as to why. I have tried searching on the web and in the forums here but having no luck. I think it may be the way I'm typing in the search. Any help or suggestions will be much appreciated. I have included a screenshot of my issue.
p.s. this is my first question post so please tell me if I need and how to improve my posting skills.
Go into settings/applications, and move the apps from sdcard to phone.

They will show like this when the OS has lost connection with your sd card. You can.go thru setting unmount and then remount your sd card and they should show up. Not to be a doomsayer, but there is a possibility that your sd card is getting ready to go out on you. Mine exhibited the same thing and then died 2 weeks later.

I can't seem to thank either of your guys posts. I just wanted to say thanks for both suggestions. Totally makes sense, kicking my self for not thinking of it. This is why I love this site and flashing roms. Thanks to both of you again!

Please dont say that! This has been happening to me too, and I figured it was because the apps were on the SD card....so if the card dies, I will loose everything wont i?
Unmounting the SD card and remounting didn't work but moving the apps back to the phone worked. I may invest in a new sd card with a higher class. I am currently using a san disk 4 class. I want to keep my apps on the sd card because the partition seem so small on the phone and I find it easier for backing up purposes.

Not saying it is absolutely going to happen, but that is what happened to me. New card, no crazy icons.
Would at least back up everything important from the sd card.

This has happened to me as well. I just go into app manager and clear the ram then all my icons return.

I mean its possible. I learned from loosing over 500 pictures and videos how important it is to back up SD cards. There are many apps that can back it up for you. I personally use Google+ for backing up pictures and videos only when connected to a charger.
When my SD crapped out, it put my phone into a boot loop, which made me panic since I was an avid flasher on my atrix. Not sure every SD card acts that way. Of course, once removed, phone booted up normally

This phone has almost 2GB of storage memory for apps. And that is about the most I have seen for about any phone. So if you are using it up you must have alot of apps. Maybe too many as the phone is having issues keeping them alll in memory. Had similiar issues to this on previous phones when they were simply over loaded.
Also, I don't believe it is your SD card going bad. The phone doesn't save/move apps to your external (physical) sd card. It saves them to the built in internal/usb memory which is about 11GB. Even the EA/Gameloft extra downloads are saved on the internal/usb memory. You can connect your phone to your computer and see this. However when you unmout the external sd card the apps disappear. So how the 2 are linked is unknown to me. But that link may be the issue.
Got a 32 gb card just to be safe. I need a larger card anyway so I'll throw this older one on my camera. LOL
Thanks for saving me time

Thanks for the simple but effective tip. Don't know why I spend hours reading the non-geek forums, xda is the only one that has real, expert answers. Rather than "well if u press vol sideways and spin around three times while chanting gnusmas " or something like that.

I think you're in the wrong forum since the GT-P7500 & 7510 don't have an SD card slot.
