Pics all gone - Help! - JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General

I am using dopod 818 pro with a 4GB SD card WM5 Traditional Chinese version. Everything's working fine until yesterday after taking pictures with the phone's camera I find that there is nothing stored under the storage card (My Pictures under My Documents which is the default storing location). I verified that it's not stored under my pictures in the internal memory. Then I took some more pictures, the photo count is keep decreasing (indicating that it is taking up memory on the memory card), but I couldn't find the pics anywhere in my SD card. Could anyone please help? Many thanks.

in the camera option, what is the storage destination you've set?

If I remember correctly the camera app has a problem with cards bigger then 2GB.
This may have caused it to not save the files at all or properly.
You could try accessing the card with a card reader from the PC but other than that I am not sure if anything can be done to recover your photos.
Sorry.

Camera Sd card problem

Anyone else having a problem getting camera images to be saved onto the SD card. When i start the camera application it asks me if i want to use my SD as the storage location. I agree. it is a 2gb SD. I take pictures as I would with the main mem as the storage loc. When I go to look in the folder I see no pictures! I checked the foder value in the registry and it is correct.....
ideas?

When in the camera application and you go through the tools menu to see where it's storing the pictures - does it confirm that Storage Card is being used.
There are some things to note:
You cannot have "network folder" enabled and store to the storage card. If it is enabled you must disable it and then use the menu in the camera to select storage card.
Sometimes the camera does not auto create the My documents>My pictures directory on the storage card. If not you can create it.

Camera capacity

I have a problem with camera and availability of free space for photos. On storage card I have 4GB of free space and camera shows that I can make 6 photos only. Camera has set Storage card for store photos. Main memory shows 270 photos, Storage card with 4GB of free space shows 6 photos only...
SOLVED: SD CARD TUNE FIX was reason. After uninstall everything looks o.k. Currently I can take 730 photos and store it on Storage card.

not sure if this is the answer but sometimes with external storage when you delete somthing it goes into the recycle bin so is still there. try pluging in the storage card to your computer then emptying the recycle bin. (the recycle bin on your computer/desktop)
if not i dont have a clue, you could try copying all your important files off the card then format it.
just saw this thread by another person who seems to have a better answer:

Had the exact same problem......copied some more files to the HD to go over 4GB (half full) and camera says now it can take several thousands of pix again....
Never tried on my 16GB card, since it´s already more than half full.....so yes, seems to be a bug on the HD

Yes, it should be a bug. My first opinion that SD Tune fix is reason was wrong. I tested, when I fill up over 4GB my Storage Card, then I can take more over 5 thousand photos again. I reported this bug to HTC, might somebody else could report this bug to HTC...

New memory card creating camera issue - Please help!

Hi, I have recently bought a new memory card for my hd2. It's a SanDisk 8gb micro sdhc card.
I formatted in the phone then copied across all files from my old card on my PC. Everything is working fine, CoPilot long with other preinstalled apps as well as all the other .cab files I have downloaded over the last few months. With my MP3s loaded onto the card I have about 3gb left
The problem I have is when I load up my camera, it says I have enough space left for 5 more pictures! Tried switching storage location in settings, which changed to 23 (phone memory) and back again but I still have only 5 pics remaining - for some reason it won't see card properly but the rest of my phone functions fine. I took 5 pictures to see if it was just displaying wrong, but after 5 photos, I got memory full message
Please can someone help me resolve this issue!?! Thanks!
Try changing it to Phone Memory again, then reboot.
Then change it back, and reboot.
Does it change?
hi, thanks for the quick reply. just tried what you suggested but still no luck!
I've just deleted an old video from the DCIM folder on my memory card, which was 3mb and that has given me a few extra photos available.
it seems there is an upper size limit on the DCIM folder. Maybe I could transfer all my saved pics and vids to a different folder but that is quite annoying. Has anyone else come across the DCIM folder having an upper size limit? and would it be possible to increase this?

How big was the original card? The 2Gb one?
yeah it was the 2gb one, it came with the phone from O2. Forgot to say I'm running O2's 1.43 ROM
*bump*
Still no luck on this one short of clearing my DCIM folder on the SD card. Has anyone else had issues like this when using a new memory card?

I would try and remove the DCIM folder, and let the camera app recreate it.
Try out "Update for HTC HD2 SD Card Storage Cards" at: http://www.htc.com/europe/SupportDownload.aspx?p_id=297&cat=0&dl_id=825
hey thanks for the replies guys. Just installed the storage card update from HTC and that has fixed the issue. Forgot about that update so thanks for the heads up

Lost pictures.

When I ran out of space in my device I had to change my storage to storage card. Since then I've lost a bunch of pictures I can see them right after I've taken the picture but I can't find them later in the picture gallery

If you are rooted you can give this a shot.

Gallery will have two Camera folders, one for internal & one for external, atleast thats the way it is on 4.2.2 MF9.
Have you used a file manager to see if the pictures are there & gallery just isn't updating? Could your MicroSD card to your computer to see if the files are there. Would be in DCIM\Camera in SDCard(built in storage) & extSdCard (actual MicroSD Card), long paths are /storage/emulated/0/DCIM/Camera & /storage/extSdCard/DCIM/Camera respectively.
I found this folder. But the missing pics aren't there
So I switched back to camera for a function. But now I am out of space. When I move the pictures and movies to my sd card the gallery reads them as corrupted. What is wrong?

This didn't work.
Why isn't there much response to this?
It may not be the same cause, but a similar symptom happened on mine. I found out in a roundabout way that my 64GB SanDisk microSD is shot. The card is stuck in readonly mode. It reads fine but cannot write, and the ROM just didn't complain about it and shows stuff from short term cache. Amazon reviews and forum posting showed that there are other owners of the 64GB SanDisk microSD with the same issues, and it was due to the controller going bad.
Plug your microSD to a computer. If you can create a folder on it, then your microSD is still good and the problem is elsewhere. Good luck!

transcript of the memory card.

Hello!
Please help me with the following problem ....
Rested prazniki in another city, and of course with my family take pictures and videos.
It was a memory card Kingston 64gb Class10 U-1
When revising the captured photos, those that did not like are removed immediately, in general, click the delete button and see no response, I pushed again and then noticed that since double clicked to remove Vesta with bad photos removed a very important video.Daby on arrival to try to recover through Handy Racovery remote video had to buy another card just a class above Kingston 64gb Class10 U-3.Vstavil and began to use (as an internal drive) But on arrival home insert the memory card into the card reader and found that the files can not see .... even I tried to re-insert the old card and go to custom rekaveri TWRP, did not help either, with strange names of folders and files they do not have ...
Ie when a new card vstvlyaesh asked to forget the memory card, and probably a new encrypt other keys ... and paste the old 58gb which is recorded and can not see it.
Maybe there kakaeto service which can be turned off anything ... If only pomoglo..Ochen important photos and videos.
Prompt please::
As with the previous card to pull photos and videos
Adopted (internal) storage is encrypted... if it's corrupt, it's gone, there is no recovery.
Just another example of why to NEVER use adopted storage, and ALWAYS use Google Photo to maintain online backups.
