Do you see the issue when copying to external sd or internal sd? Do you see the issue when copying large or small files?
I have seen this when using non-stock cable, when copying large files.

It doesn't matter large or small files and tried different or cables

Hi!
Q: Is this affecting every file transferred to the SD card, or just some?
Also, have you still got your phone connected to the PC? Your HD can't read the SD card while the phone is plugged into the USB port. (not sure about bluetooth, since i don't use it) If you open the file manager you will see that the storage device disappears when the phone is plugged into the computer.
well i think i fix it man...format few times my card... with win xp , i have put 1 of new roms and problem solved for now,
otherwise i wass geting problems with diferent kind of files...pictures, mp3s...zip files, w/e and they exist on card but after i try to open, says corupted...
I got same problem.
Moreover, I can't see the µSD card when I plug it into PC !
How do we format the card with PPC ?
---------------------
Edit : solution found : downloaded st.ppc420.arm.cab (storage tool), and suceeded formating my SD card !
Now everything works again : I can use my HD like a USB key again.
well, i use card reader...and on right click u can do that, i hope your card is not dead
well i tho i solved this problem...till now ocurs again, onestly dont know whats the problem...now i got 6.5 mobile, basicly im geting this problem when i try to transfer large files and large zip files like up to 100meg.
anyone got this problem and solved?
ty in advance

[Q] Files i transferred to SDCard only show after reboot

Hey there,
after hours of searching through several threads and forums, im finally trying to post a question concerning my problem ^^. Is it a common problem that i need to restart / reboot my phone, when i want files i transferred to show up in the file manager ? Also when im trying to delete files, my file manager (ES File Manager) still shows them being existent on my phone.
Before i installed my Android Build i completely cleared up my SD Card, and reformated it (Sandisk 16GB).
I already tried different datatypes and different file managers (ASTRO and ES FM)
Im Using ChuckyRom 23134 Lite
with shubCraft 1.5
OS on my PC is Win 7 64bit.
im connecting my HD2 with a standard usb cable
Hope you can help me out... totally annoying that i need to get a restart before i can use my copied .apk's
update: now that last time i transferred and rebooted it got even more weird. all the changes i made had no effect. the sd card completely restored itself. my files are gone, and even one delete i did (for test purposes) has been undone
I have tried to upload file on both windows xp and 7. I even tried Linux. All exhibit the problem of files available only after reboot.
UPDATE: If you can upload items via bluetooth the system sees the file instantly (even in Astro).

This is a common problem everyone having now...USB transfer is not stable now...even,you can find the file in your SD card.that might show 0byte(corrupted)...if you are lucky,you can open that file(maybe0.000001%)
So,the best way to transfer files from PC to android phone is use android explorer...which supports drag and drop,and no need to unmount your SD...
download it here...
hey mate,dont open a new thread because of one question next time...and try to read the comment by users or instruction by rom chefs...DARKSTONE already emntioned this case few times before...because we boot android from SD card,and if you try to copy file to SD card again...it'll corrupt...
Cheers...

I assume you dont have the USB cable plugged in when you are doing this ?
Are you on the standard stock ROM ?

Problem resolved by connecting USB, using windows to check drive errors on card.
Thanks.
PS usb was disconnected. Running Wild 0.7
I would still love to know what may have caused it..........
Thank you for the reply
Where did you get the card? If it was ebay that may be the issue

Can't find file after transfering to SD through USB

I tried transfering a few files to my SD card through USB cable plugged into a HD2 on AmeriCan android. In Win7, the files are copied successfully but in ES explorer, the files aren't showing.
I tried plugging the phone to the computer again and I see the files I copied over in Win7. Tried unmounting and mounting the SD card to no avail.
Is there something I did wrong or missed? Sorry 3rd day using Android (and seriously considering it as my main OS) so I'm a major noob.
Thank you!

I am not familiar with that particular Rom but there are some other Rom's that have a glitch and the file will only show up once you have rebooted the phone. Try this and see what happens...
It's common on a few roms, just pop you SD into your pc
Sent from my HTC HD2
there are apps like media rescan, that offer scanning media after you transfer the files. this is also available in SwitchPro widget, power control plus, and probably in some other tools I don't know about.

Lost all my files...

I plugged in the usb cable to put some mp3 files in my lg g2 and i get an error saying you can't move this folder and then i try to remove the usb and put it back again and then when i open my internal storage its empty...i check it on my phone all my files are gone even the ones that came with the device i guess factory settings will help but i lost all my files very weird...my apps are still installed though.
try using a different usb port, or try another pc/laptop ?
