my music on ext. sd not found on any rom but stock - Vibrant General

the music is on my ext sd card but no matter what rom it's on it won't show up there. I did flash back to a stock rom and it still is there and shows up and works just fine. Is there any way to fix this?

Have you tried unmounting your sd remove it. Then put it back in? This happend to me recently and thats how I fixed it. Also plug your phone up to a pc and see if it can read the files from your sd through the phone.

Try re-scan media from the market. Basically we want to force a rescan of both sd cards

Tried both ideas and they didn't work. I was able to pull up file in file manager and play through there but that's a pain in the ass

Hmm, thats odd. Are you using the stock player? And have you tried downloading different players from the market, or flashing one to test it? What build version are the ROMs you are using also?

I have tried about 8 different roms. My current one is Toxic7.xwjs8
Kernel version 2.6.32.9 OverStock-1.2GHz-2.4.1 #8
I have tried the players that flash on the rom ,I've tried dl win amp. I even thought that it may have been an issues since the music was synced with the kies 2.2 update so i formatted the sd card and put it all back on again and still nothing

try putting it in the int sd...

I know that works but I don't want it using my internal memory plus I have to much music

any other ideas

Idk what else could be. Does your phone actually read the card at all If you go to storage in settings? Have you tried a different sd yet?

You have got to settings on your media players, click where it says scan folders. Select the. External sd. After that refresh the app. That's it. I have a full 16GB of music and its able to read it.

None of the apps that use the SD now works; , i.e. music player, camera, etc..
If I unmount the SD, these apps work.
All apps worked before the upgrade.

Problem with sd card

Over the past day or so I have been playing around with some of the gingerbread sense roms out. After flashing the last one, my sdcard comes up with the message that its mounted read only due to an unexpected problem. I have tried fixing permissions, even went and removed the gingerbread rom and restored a back up of royal glacier, which had no problem with my sdcard before. Any ideas as to what is going on? I'd hate to have to format my sdcard as there's a LOT of misceleanous backups on it from my phone. Any help in this will be greatly appreciated.
P.S. If it makes any kind of difference I am using the 8gb sdcard that came with the phone.

Have you tried mounting it via settings? Cm7 is having the same issues pretty much, if I go to settings storage and mount sd it fixes it till the next error. Lol it sux azz and I don't think anyone here can build a rom without using cm source. :/

I tried that to no avail. Even tried remounting through adb... As far as mounting through settings goes, it shows the card is mounted read only, and will not unmount or anything, if I press the unmount it leaves that screen and comes up preparing sd card, then the same error message... I don't know, guess I'll just have to pull my sd card contents and format. Will that effect my cwm or anything else I am using which made folders on my sd card?

HELP!!!!!
Okay. So I took the sdcard from my phone, and attempted to pull the files and folders from it. WHAT A SHOCKER! they're all set to read only. I had to take each file and folder seperately, go to properties, and uncheck read only from the attributes. But there's STILL a problem, Once I move them to my windows 7 64 bit pc, the are set to read only again. I take ownership of the folder and it's contents, and as soon as I click apply and close the properties, they're set back to read only. I have already formatted the sd card, and want to put these files back, but if they're read only wouldn't it mess up my phone's sd card again? What am I missing to get my sd card back to working condition? Anyone who can help with this issue would be a LIFE SAVER. I have a TON of info on this phone I don't want to lose. I Pray to the android GODS that my phone's sd card did not ruin all my info.
Try them, mine show read only as well on my 32 bit vista system. And they never change either.

Will do as soon as I return home and will report back with what happens, as for now I found out that what messed my sd card up in the first place was installing ginger sense with NO ext partition. Found a forum here witj a walkthrough to creating said partitions and have done so. As for my back ups and all other files, I will let you know what happens... Thanks for the help!
P.S. Am not having same problems as my saphire did that I mentioned in pm. I have no sdcard in right now, and am fully functioning...

So far the contents of my sdcard appear safe, help is very much appreciated... Now if I may ask, what rom are you running my friend? And also is there a sense gingerbread rom that is 100% functional?

After over a week, I just realized that my sdcard crash costed me over 200 of my pictures and videos... A lot of those were of my son... I just learned the importance of backing up your sdcard the hard way...

Factory reset for no reason

My phone reset itself for no reason. It was laggy so I restarted. When it rebooted, all the apps I had installed wod force close (samsung default apps worked fine) and all my personal info was gone (phone nos, contacts, settings, etc).
When this happened first two times, i replaced my phone. Now it happened on the replacemwnt SGS.
I am thinking it may be the sd card (I am using an 8gb external sd I have from my previous Moto Mestone). I've been running for about a week with no reset since I took the card out from the phone. I would however like to use the sd card for the additional storage.
Anybody know if the sd card could have been the problem and maybe how to fix it?

Yes, it sounds like this
Did you already try to boot the phone without the external-SD-Card being plugged in? Or just tried booting with another external SD-Card?
If not, copy over your data form ext. SD-Card to your PC and reformat the external SD-Cardwithin the system settings.
Maybe there are some system files from your Milestone left which SGS doesn't like
Installed Darky's rom. Do not seem to have that problem anymore.
Thanks

SD card not working with iCS rom

I have this problem were the sd card will not take anything on it. If I place a new folder and a picture on it, it erases itself on its own. Or I'll put a album on there and maybe 5-8 songs might appear. I am running passion ics with a 32gb sd card. Just want to know if there is a zip that needs to be flashed or if this is a problem. Thanks for reading!

i had a lot of issues with a sd card that i used with my computer or camera before using it on the phone. search for a program called SDFormatter and format your card. you should be ok after that

At first I was a little worried about using this program, but I ran it and it worked for about 2 hours. Out of no where the music that I was moving over kept disappearing and stopped allowing me to copy files from the pc to the sd. I tried formatting the card after that and I was allowed to put the files that were on there before formatting but nothing after that. Is there any other solution to this fiasco that I am faced with!
I have a similar issue. I haven't tried writing anything to my SD card, but it looks like its empty in MIUI and ES file explorers. I can boot into recovery and see that the files are there. Any suggestions?

If it's really important transfer everything to your computer instead then to SD
