I've had Creamed Glacier since its Beta 4.1, and then entire time, I have found that my phone doesn't locate music files at all. If I have a music app, it will show that there are no music files on the sd card, while I have over 2GBs worth of them. I have put them in the correct folder, and it has worked on GB, but when I switched to ICS I found that music was no longer being discovered on my sd card (also videos).
Is there a fix for this?
What are you doing on 4.1? There's beta 6.1.

I have 6.1 beta. I said I've had creamed glacier since its 4.1 beta.
Reflash. I use mixzin and music works me.

I had the problem, if you have any music apps like power amp,Google music uninstall them power off remove SD card, insert SD card power up and let phone read SD card, it should work now. Some music apps mess with the stock music app I don't know why.

Hmm...still not working. The phone still doesn't see any of my music, regardless of the apps I have uninstalled. This is indeed a weird problem.

Try clearing cache and data in the music app then do what I said in the post above

I went ahead and did exactly what you did. I had the Google Music app, PlayerPro app, and the phone's own "Music" app. I disabled the phone's music app, deleted cache and everything else I could find. I disabled and reenabled it. I uninstalled both PlayerPro and the Google Music app. Still no go.
Thanks bmakk2055 for the support you've shown me thus far.
I've deleted every music app, then reinstalled a new app, deleting cache and everything. Still no go.

I have the same problem and this isn't just with music, it happens in gallery too.
That's why i'm not using it right now, cause it pissed me off when i got in the car and couldn't listen to my music.
Also, it's really annoying how i had to yell at my phone to get people to hear me during phone calls.

Just recently, new music I put on my card isn't updating in the player. I use PlayerPro, but I've checked with the stock music app (Rubix 2.0), MixZing, and a couple others. All other music still shows up fine.
I've tried rebooting, pulling the card, and running the sdrescan app. I can see the files using Astro.
Thanks.
Try rebooting your phone. I had something like this before and the next day, after I had turned off my phone and turned it back on, it was there

Anyone else?
see if the player has an option in settings that will guide the app to your music folder and refresh.
I had this problem, and my only solution was to get apps with that option.
rooted x, on liberty 1.5
it was working fine yesterday, but this morn i tried to play some music and it said "no songs", i went to the sd card and they are all still there.
so i dl some new music from music junk and it finds the new ones.
any ideas?
What rom are u running?

You may have gotten a bad ROM flash.
When I open the HTC gallery app and select "Camera shots" it often only displays the first 15 photos and videos from the folder on the SD card (\SDCARD\DCIM\100Media). It does occasionally show more, but not always. Has anyone else noticed this behaviour? I'm sure of the content of this folder because when I use Astro file manager to open the folder I see all of the photos.

Doesn't happen on my desire z

Have just discovered that it's a common problem. I've now downloaded QuickPic and all is well....
Yes, I have that.
I have been moving the photos I take into a separate directory under DCIM, so as to separate them from the HTC example images, and this seems to force the gallery to rebuild its list of photos.
hopefully it'll be fixed in gingerbread update
I use Rescan Media which forces to rebuild the media db.
This problem is not related just to pictures, but to mp3's as well although not that common because usually you are not adding/removing music as much as pictures.
I have that same problem. Now using QuickPic as well and it works perfectly. That said, it shouldn't be necessary to install a 3rd party gallery just to make sure you see all photos.
One minor glitch with QP, though, is it will not allow me to upload videos to YouTube. For that I have to use the HTC gallery app.
I really hope the issue gets fixed with the Gingerbread update.

I was starting to think I was going mad and hadn't actually taken some pictures. Just installed rescan media and the missing pictures have reappeared.
Thanks.

Go to the directory and delete the .thumbnails directory, that will rebuild the cache. It works for me.

Yeah but rescan media is quicker.

Can you direct me to it? Its not showing up in the Market.
Something is very wrong.
To refresh for those that do not know...
Yesterday, I took about 100+ important pix. None of them saved. Only two videos were saved.
When I brought everything from the Gallery to the comp, there are 340 files totalling 2.31gb.
The past hour, I was instructed to try to duplicate the situation, so I took a bunch of pix and videos. Reached over 340 files. After doing a long video, I checked the Gallery to discover all the pix disappeared leaving only the videos.
So I hooked it up to the comp and browse through...they are all gone.
Something is very wrong here and this needs to be pinpointed and fixed.
i a having this same problem on a fresh wipe and install of rc1. but before i had rc1 this did not happen so i do not know what i did different this time around.
I found this problem last night, im on stock rom. Turned my phone off last night and this morning all files were visible. So, try rebooting phone and see mate.

Its easier to use the Rescan Media app than restarting the phone. But thunderokc says that his pics are actually physically missing from the sd card, now that is a huge problem. In the usual case only the cache is corrupted, so its enough to rebuild it. But even after that, after some time they can disappear again for no reason..

how about the standard gallery? Also check your SD card, see if those pics are really there (check it on a pc). I am not sure, but a wipe doesn't remove also all stuff from the sd card?
i have the same problem... Gallery and mp3 appear and disappear randomly.. Quickpic solves the gallery problem , but for me is impossible set a mp3 file as ringtone.
If i use rescan media the phone sees the mp3 and i can use it , but after a while the files disappear from sd (they are still in sd but the phone doesn't see them) and is set the default ringtones.
Try copying some more mp3 files. Usually "just" some of the latest media disappears. Yes this very stupid&annoying and as far as I know its still not fixed in the latest update...

try playerpro from the market, works really well. I dont have your problem, as I tend to get a little OCD about my music and they way the files are named
Yesterday I was looking at my storage usage, play music had over 500mb of data. I cleared data and it went down to 12mb. Checked again today and there's 200mb in there. I hadn't even opened it since I cleared data. Wtf is it doing in the background? I'm guessing it's downloading music to the device, because it's killing my data also, but it's not downloading it to any obvious folder. I don't see any settings to control this, typical of a google app the settings are quite minimal. I haven't selected any songs to be pinned to the device either.

Don't sync your Google Music and it will not use quite as much. When you do Sync the music file get stored in /data/data/com.google.android.music in the files folder. ....
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 using xda premium
Word. I never used the sync feature even though I had it set up, so I just deleted everything from my play library. I'm on the all access trial. Any song I can stream from my library I can stream from Google, so why bother.
Thanks :thumbup:

There's a modified google music apk floating around which let's you save the music to any directory (thus offloading it onto an SD card potentially).
Make sure you hit the "on device" setting so it doesn't stream everything and kill your data

Play music is at it again. 510mb of data nowhere to be found. Luckily whatever it's doing, it did on wifi this time. I can't find anything in any location. No songs, nada. I'm close to deleting it and canceling my subscription.

You did say you were streaming right?
Use Greenify and make it hibernate while not in use
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 using xda premium
I haven't been streaming much, and when I do it's on wifi. This is app data not cellular data.
I unchecked sync google play music, automatic caching in the app, and cleared all data and it hasn't downloaded anything to my internal storage in two days. If I could contact google about it I would, because it downloaded 500mb of something to my phone over 4g, and that ain't right.

Yeah I checked mine too and it had over 800 megabytes of data also I just froze it I'm not going to deal with it until I get it fixed or either I will revert to the old one

Make sure you've disabled the option that automatically caches streamed music locally.
