Same thing happened to me after coming from a Note 2. I think it's because they used different file systems. Anyway, I tried a chkdsk repair on the drive when I had it mounted on my pc. That recovered some of the stuff, but I lost quite a lot.

I had the same issue going from the Galaxy S5 to the Z2. My whole Camera folder on the SD card was wiped. Only about 300 photos... FK U Sony!

so there is no sulutions for this !!

Hi, you can go to setting, app, then camera, click on clear cache and date, then go to album, click on clear cache and data, then reboot your phone.
After that, it will be fine. pictures saved to SD card will not be lost again.

In the future though, it's best to back up the contents of your SD card and manually format the card before inserting it into another device.
There's a saying in the world of storage. "If it's not backed up, it's not important".

SonyEricsson system programs don't find SD Card anymore

Hey Guys,
maybe you've got a idea what might have happened.
Since a few hours, the SonyEricsson Tools don't recognize the SD Card anymore proper.
- I can't set ringtones that are stored on SD (in the correct folder).
- SonyEricssons Backup and Restore doesn't work anymore.
- While taking a photo with the built-in camera, the phone says: "Saving not possible".
- Mediascape and Gallery don't find any pictures anymore.
But Astro- and Rockplayer work fine, as Sygic Mobile Maps also does find the maps stored on SD. Beautiful Widgets is running with the Skins stored on SD...
Do you have a clue, what may have gone wrong?
Thanks,
McK
The first time I flashed 2.1 on my phone same thing happened to me. Did a reflash, but no luck.
Then, I formatted my SD via Settings on the phone and KA-BOOM... everything back to normal!
Not an easy road to go down, but it worked for me.
*sent from my X10i
Hi My_Immortal,
thanks for your reply.
I tried that too, via system settings --> SD Card & phone memory.
I had to tick "remove SD card" and then I was able to format it.
But it didn't make any change.
Do you have some further advice?
Did I use the wrong menu?
Kind regards to Greece ,

Oh, so the format didn't work?
Try these things, if you haven't already, then:
1) reformat the SD via the Settings menu (you used the right menu), then connect your phone and mount the SD on your PC and check the drive for errors (right-click on the Removable Disk->Properties->Tools->Check drive for errors) and make sure you tick the "attempt to correct" option. Then put some pictures, music, video on it, safely remove and check if Mediascape is displaying your content.
2) unfortunately, imho, the next option is repair via SEUS.
Let me know if any of it worked!
Greece is greeting you warmly too!!!
No success over here
I've put my SD card into a card reader and made a backup of the whole SD card to my harddisk.
Then I used Win7 to format it to exFAT to make sure my phone can't work with it.
Before I placed the SD Card back to the phone, I checked it via chkdsk.
Everything fine.
Then I returned it into the phone and the phone told me (like expected) that the card has to be formatted.
I ticked format, took a photo and --> "Saving not possible..."
I guess I've deactivated / uninstalled something via Titanium Backup that was wrong..
I'll make a fullbackup via TB this evening or tomorrow and make a SEUS repair of the phone.
Then I'll see, what happens and if its a software problem, caused by an too optimistic user
I'll keep you informed, as soon as something happens.

Ah, you messed with system apps via Titanium, huh?
I've been there one two many times in the past...
I have now done myself a favor and only uninstall Moxier Apps, Wisepilot and Office Suite! I leave the rest untouched because the implications definetely don't worth the extra few MB, either on RAM or ROM.
Anyway, I bet the reflashing will solve your problem!
I'm not sure if it was TB.
I'll repaie flash the phone tomorrow in the morning and post the result.
Something strange happened this eve: I've been out to the Basel autumn fairy and tried to take a photo.
After a few tries my phone suddenly stated: saved.
I gave it a second and third try and voila: I can see these pictures in mediascape... But not the ones that are already around.... grml...
Hi My_Immortal,
o.k. looks like a classic pebkac... Or in this case: pebpac .
"Repairing" the phone helped till now.
But I couldn't resist poking around with TB again.
This time I heard on your advice and did it a little less agressive
I'll head now over to the "safe to delete" threads and will deactivate / uninstall the one that are proven 100% to be safe
Hey, I wish you a very nice weekend, have a good time

hey guys i just got my external sd card and i put files (such as music) into it.
however i CANNOT see anything when using Astro File Manager except two folders:
.android_secure and LOST.DIR.

Copy files to external SD card via USB Mass storage mode .
Do you see the files in Windows Explorer .
Probably you are that impatient you have copied the files to a wrong place .
jje

no... cant see nothing! (except on PC)
Copy the files back to your PC (if you need to) and reformat it, making sure you do it as FAT32. Then copy the files back.
use your SGS2 to format the sdcard, this should settle problems with filesystem, cluster size, ... then try again. make a backup of your files before you format!
same happend to my 32gb class 4 sdhc card abd after 2 days it become dead, now it is not working any more. May be your card has the same problem that mine had. I bought it from ebay and it was local china made card. I claimed my money and got it back.
may be this would help you, do not consider that your card is also going to die, i just told you what happened to mine.
actually i got my microSD from my previous device-Nokia E72
it is a SDHC so it should fit the FAT32 system..no?

It's best to format it if you're having issues, especially with something like files appearing/not appearing on different devices.
As suggested by d3l1 above, use the phone to format it. If you still have problems then there are better formatting apps for your PC.

if there are still problems he should test the card and see if it's dying, happens from time to time.

if you can open it in your pc then its not dead yet.. may sure you are opening the correct folder for external card. The folder is in sdcard\ externalSd or something like that
did you try another card? there are so many possibilities as to what may be the problem.
i can see the folder SDCARD/external_SD
but inside i can only see LOST.dir and .android_secure, nothing else! but i did put some music in it!

			
				
me 2
same here formated the sdcard in my pc put in my phone then transfered music.phone couldnt see any files so formated sdcard in phone this time but when hooked it up to the pc the files were still there even though they had been formated.lol not sure what to do next.

How Rescue Deleted Images in a Card With Ext ?

Recently i flashed a new version of Dragon Rom, and i forget to save many images of my job, and during the instalation i choose to format system, preload... and sd card....
After the instalation i try to install the undelet for root users but it stops with a message that there insĀ“t a fat particion in my phone.
There is a way to rescue my images from my S3 ? My boss will gone kill me for that images...
As always the answer is no you formatted them away .
RECUVA can be tried if you want to be sure .

Sorry mate, but most probably your boss is going to kill you.
You can try to put your s3 card in a PC and try any normal recover software (there are many around).

Hello there.
If you lost anything / something on your sd external you must do the following.
1. Put your sd card into a card reader.
2. Download File scavenger on your PC. http://www.quetek.com/prod02.htm
// You have 2 vers: free and paid. try the free one and see if it sees your lost files; and if is it positive you know what to do .
3. Scan your sdcard, with the Long scan.
4. Save your files.
Hope it helps.

Removed sd card
i dont have a reliable solution but what i do was turning off the unit, remove the sd card then swipe with clean cloth-reinsert it to the slot and turn on d unit. let it boot properly for 3 minutes then check if sd card was read by opening the file manager.

It must be work in another way to recover sd card data.
I think the 1st step you have to do is don't panic :LOL
Ok try this for sdcard recovery when it can't be detected properly on your phone:
With a card reader right click the card in windows, properties - tools - error checking. It should make the card readable on the phone again.

Accidentally pressed format sd card in recovery, but quickly removed.Is my data lost?

Hi,
I was browsing through recovery looking for the option to copy files into the sd card while in recovery, just so i didn't have to remove. Well, for some stupid mistake ( i still can't figure out why i even confirmed the option), i pressed the format sd card and when i realized it a second later i removed the card right away.
I don't think it really had time to delete anything or much, but when i inserted the card in my computer it said that the card should be formatted to be used and the same thing appeared on the phone, so im guessing some crucial file that allows me to use the card was deleted.
So, did i just lose all my data? Is there a way to recover the card files?
Thanks in advance!

Removing it while erasing might have had corrupted the data, too. Unless there's some magic software which can check for deleted files on these types of SD cards.
you can recover your deleted data by downloading "diskdigger" from google play in my opinion it's the best app for this issue.. another app is "undeleted for root users"... you can recover photos, videos, and some texts.....
If this reply helped you don't miss to press thanks Buttom to know ?

Keep in mind these might not work as the phone cannot access the card or file system of it, this is why it appears as an unformated card and the phone or computer cannot do anything with it besides reformatting

Try active file recovery software
Samsung Galaxy S3 I9300
Rom: Archidroid v2.4.6
Philz recovery
Boeffla kernel 2.3b6
Viper4android powered sound
Hi
Thank you all for the replies.
I ended up using a recovery software to retrieve the files, since they were all still there because i stopped the formating process right away.
So, recovered the files, formated the card and put the files back.
I was hoping i could just restore the filesystem and those files, but that was the only solution i got at the time.
Thank you all for the help and suggestion!
Recovery of accidentally formatted SD card is possible in couple of minutes. By means of Remo Recover tool, you can get back files lost from SD, CF, MMC and XD cards.
