Hello! I really need your help!!!!
I have Samsung J5 2015 (j500h)
I always refused to patch the sdcard and vold files at the beginning, but one day I accidentally agreed ... the phone rebooted .. I thought it was okay and decided to install one of the games and transfer it to the sd card, but I got an error. I did everything as in the guide, returned files from backups, renamed them and now it shows "sdcard - damaged" in my memory.
Through the root of the explorer, you can see that the sdcard is mounted in the root directory of the device and this is the internal memory folder and formatting it is scary.
Other SD cards also see the same. In TWRP, the card is mounted and working ...
I decided that I had a broken vold and sdcard .. I downloaded the firmware image from the Internet, unpacked it and found these 2 files there .. their hash amount is the same as mine and nothing has changed when replacing it ..
Maybe some config or something somewhere and can not mount the sd .... what to do ??? I really don’t want to reflash ... I really want to fix it, but I don’t know how
P.S. I found the same issue with this phone from another person and it didn't go away after flashing - https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/foldermount-made-my-sd-card-corrupted.3657671/

Hi everyone,
I have a question or maybe someone can give me some advice?
Is there an application that can do this or maybe a terminal app, and someone knows the commands to enter?
I am very anal and a complete neat freak, so my sd card on my xperia looks very unorganized. I have tried to create a folder called android and move all the dependent files to android there but the folders and files just get recreated.
I would love to have my sd card Folders look like:
Android (defualt for android),
Music,
Pictures,
Movies,
Temp,
and so on.
does anyone know how this type of organization could be done, I have an X10a rooted. So could i not open a terminal and change the default path to my sd card to a folder rather than the root of the card.
So this would make android put anything it wanted to write to the sd card into a folder called Android.
Hope someone is as anal as me and has figured out a way to do this.
I agree and would also like to know if there's an option to deal with this. I think it's absurd that Android defaults to dumping temp files an app folders all over the sdcard with no actual organization. I can't think think of a single reason why it can't just put all of these things in an "Android" folder and make a giant mess out of that, instead of doing it right in the sdcard root.
This was posted in July and this is the first response. Anyone have any ideas?
Root explorer paid app will allow to create folders and move stuff around

BUMP
would also really like to know if it can be tidied up
what about dynamic links like the same way apps2sd works
Just an idea
Bump, still searching for a solution to this
I would think that with all the mods, this might be able to be done.
I'm going to ask if the moderators good move this thread to a more general forum like the android q&a?
would be nice to have all sym links go to an android folder, instead of the root of the sd card. or maybe the android files need to be on root?
still searching......
I am afraid this cant be done - every Android app has a ability to write wherever on sdcard. There is dierectory Android, which is default for every android app data.
Some developers respect it some not, many apps dont write do /sdcard/Android but creates their own dirs wherever on sdcard.
I think about one solution, because I am linux geek and hopefully many thinks could be done on Android similar way
Repartition the sdcard with two discs - one to be mounted as /mnt/sdcard - where all of the junk stuff and android configs will be stored as usual and second one partition (bigger) mounted eg. as /mnt/ext_sdcard
But there is one problem, because not all of apps are able to work with files on eternal storage....
I received my new gTablet Tuesday and had lots of fun with it for a few days, adding apps, getting frustrated because some places sent them to my phone and not letting me download to the gTab, loading media files, etc. Life was good. Then I added an external 32GB mSD and, just as many other people found out, files started disappearing. For me, though, they didn't just disappear from the media players but from the file system. Not only that but the folders began to disappear, too, and now I'm missing several folders from my file system: Video, Pictures, Music, Downloads, and many more that don't come to mind, plus all of their contents.
I was hoping that a reflash (using Roebeet's excellent sticky thread) would help but everything is still missing. Is there a way to recover or reflash the contents of the /sdcard? Even reloading the stock image would be acceptable as I would at least have a base to work from.
And, since my readings hint that this is all a result of the .nomedia issue, just where should that particular file be stored so that the media scanner doesn't delete thing or is my problem greater than that? Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks.
I am not sure, but I wonder if anundelete utility on your pc might recover files on the sd card?
As for the no media file, I have mine on the root directory as well as the media directories. This is bad though, because Very few programs will find files on the sd card. You have to use a file manager program.

Hi all,
I have been having a weird problem with my HTC flyer (unrooted, original GB rom) where from time to time it will create .nomedia file on the main directory of my sd card (ext_sd) so the files that i put in there do not get shown in picture gallery or media players. Usually i manually delete the file and do unmount - remount, which sometimes do the trick before the .nomedia re-appear.
On top of that, i just noticed as well, the files inside the directory in ext_sd start to go missing! The folders are still in tact, but my files inside the folders are missing..
Anyone can advise me how to troubleshoot this? Thanks!

that's weird...my guess would be a dodgy app you've installed...i would do a factory reset and not install anything other than 'official' apps from known sources, like google apps or official dropbox, for 2 or 3 days to see if it keeps happening
you could also try to format your sd card
Bump! Similar Problem; playlist files disappear after media scanner completes

I've had similar problems; I'm trying to transfer playlist files to an ext_sd. I can see the files transferred to a ext_sd directory. But as the "Media scanner running" completes I literally see the files disappear!
I've reformatted the SD card several times. This has only started to happen in the past few month but I can't see any new apps that I've installed. If anything I've uninstalled apps.
Sorry but this is on a Galaxy S Wifi media player (yes I know this is the Flyer, etc thread but it's the same problem so I'm trying to avoid splitting any information that might be found...)
Any help gratefully accepted.

hi,
i know i have different device, which is samsung galaxy note 10.1
but the funny thing is, i have the same issue as well.
although i run it on official 4.1.2 unrooted.
i think, the problem is one of our apk installed. but didnt find it yet. tried to uninstalling one by one, but still no clue.
if someone had solved this problem, i'd really appreciate to hear that
Hi.
Basically, it's a permissions problem. I've tried using Permissions fix on CWM but with no luck. As FAT doesn't have a permissions subsystem, seems like there is no problem with it, but as EXT4 has it, everytime the phone creates a new file/folder, it cannot read its own file.
Although I can connect and see the files on the computer, they're marked with a padlock. It means I don't have permission to access it.
I can regain access to the file and the phone can read it back again, but it's a pain in the place if everytime the phone creates a file, I have to put it back to the computer and redo the permissions sets. It can't even view it's own files. I've already tried to set the SD card root permission to myself, and with everyone capable of read/write access. But unfortunately, newly created folders aren't affected by this.
As far as it looks like, it creates a 'user' for every app that makes the file.
For example, the folders on that picture were created by the camera software, so the user of both is "10041 - user #10041". It has R/W access, but nobody else has access to even see what's inside.
I really enjoyed the transfer speeds with EXT4 (I'm on Ubuntu 12.04), even inside the phone and outside, using USB cable and apps feels snappier. I don't want to go back to FAT32..
I'm using a Motorola Atrix 4G and Morrisoft CM7 latest buid (Custom ROM).
Just to clear things up: Device CAN read and write files under EXT4, but it trips on its own tail by settings permissions badly.

Hi Guys
First of all excuse me for posting here as I am far from a developer but you are the only ones who can help me with this.
Yesterday I was trying to download a file from Facebook, and it would download but then i could not find it anywhere, even plugged my phone to the computer and did a search and nothing. So I kept trying to download it.
Thing is today I used this password storing app and went to open my file where i have stored all my passwords (nothing to do with what happened yesterday).
And in most recent downloads i saw the 10 duplicates of the files i had downloaded yesterday, and this app gives me the path for example
content://com.android.providers.downloads.documents/document/5412
how can i delete them having the path for each one?
thank you so much
