Hi,
Yesterday I've deleted by mistake a file in the storage card called album.(something)
After doing Hard Reset usually the phone searches for pictures and everything that is in the DCIM folder is presented in the pictures tab.
Now it shows me all JPG,GIF or BMP that's on the card including icon pictures and unused system pictures.
How can I restore the file to focus in the DCIM?
In addition is there a good freeware to restore files from memory card? (there's no recycle bin in WM)
Thanks,
Kubeb

If they were stored in external card then easily you can get those back but if in internal memory then I’ve no idea, an expert may help you.
If stored in external card then google it for a free file recovery software, take the card out and plug it with a memory card reader and run the software to recover those files. Make sure after you deleted those files you shouldn’t store or write the memory card, do as less as possible. If the partition where the files were stored, if that overwrite it could goes difficult to recover.
If in internal memory then if you can mount the internal memory as a usb drive, Not as a Media Device. Then probably you can do the same with that software. But I’m not sure about that, never tried.
Also look for any apps for android if available, i’m not sure.

- 1st of all, do not make any changes to the storage, i.e do not copy or edit any files ...
- 2nd, try this app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=fahrbot.apps.undelete

To recover your deleted media data including audio video files, you need to go for the data recovery process, shown in the video tutorial here.Check out the link on YouTube youtu.be/5ELyzSaio9U
Hi,
I had 1 GB worth of .wav files saved on my internal storage via the Easy Voice Recorder app. I kept getting storage space notifications and the Galaxy gives you the option to view files by type. Under Miscellanious, there was a file called EasyVoiceRecorder - I though it was a temp file of sorts so I deleted it (like a total idiot). Turns out, it wasn't a temp file but a folder containing all my .wav files.
I've since rooted the phone, bought Disk Digger and ran a scan. It only returned a hand full of small .wav files but not the ones I deleted.
I've been told Recuva might help but that works via PC and will require my internal storage to be mapped as a drive. I can't find a way to do this.
Any ideas?
I've had about the same problem, but then with pictures I've accidentally deleted.
I've used Easy Recovery Pro and scanned my complete internal memory (agressive scan).
Took a while, but I was able to recover all pictures I deleted.
Solid state storage cannot be recovered once items are deleted. The only way would be if it somehow had something like a "recycle bin" like windows does. I wouldn't know for sure if that exists.

I have the Verizon variant and I'm experiencing an issue where only some of the images on my SD card are showing up in the gallery. I took the card straight from my V10. I have tried the following to no avail:
- Backed up files to PC
- Reformatted the card from the phone
- Replaced files
What's also weird is that if I take a pic with the camera it puts the image in the camera folder on the SD card with existing images but only the new one shows up.
Any ideas? Thanks in advance!

I had an issue like that when I went from a Note 3 to 4. I looked in the card and found saved thumbnail image files and temp files. Once I removed all of those (while the card was in the PC) and then put the card back in the phone, it worked fine.
check the card to see if there no ".foldername" or ".nomedia" file in those directory
Thanks I tried both suggestions and they didn't work. I also wanted to mention that when I go into the stock file manager and attempt to open one of the images I get the flowing message:
Scanning media files..... Try again when scanning is completed

I had a similar issue, this is how I fixed it
Use Root Explorer or ES File Manager (Root explorer is my preference because it lets you have two directories side by side)
Navigate to the SD card, locate the folder(s) with the pics. Copy(not cut) all the folders and then paste them into your internal memory (in Root explorer I went to my downloads folder, created a new folder and stuck everything in there).
Then once everything is copied, format your SD card again. Then move everything back.
Once I did that, Gallery was able to see all my files.
Delete or do not copy the Android, data, Lost.Dir folders ... could be a permission issue

Just make sure any app you have set to save data to the SD card is backed up somewhere else or you will lose said data

The only drawback to copying back and forth is that it changes the "modified" date on the files and then makes them appear as new photos

Yeah that was the only drawback to doing that. I already have everything backed up to Google photos so all I did was not turn the back up on those folders on again and any new photos I've been creating new events/folders for them.
I just had this same problem. V20 didn't see my Mp3s or my pictures.
I just finished setting up my 200 gb card that came with my v10 promo last year but I had been using it in my tablet.
I went to the file manager and deleted lost.dir and everything is showing now! That's the only one I deleted and it was empty anyway. (unless there was something hidden in there)
I just spent 2 days setting this up and clearing stuff from my v10. I did my best not to panic when I finally inserted the sd and nothing changed!
Glad I had seen this thread!

I have tried all of the solutions suggested. I have an LG v20. I have at 512GB SD card (phone supposedly supports up to 2GB) My file manager and most any photo gallery app will not see the pictures on the sd card. I have backed up, format and re copied. No change. I can see them in Google photos but I'm not even sure that it's looking on my phone rather than backed up photos in the cloud. This is frustrating.
Ok. I think I figured it out. My pic folder was a sub folder on my SD card. Beneath the pic folder were more sub folders to separate my photos. I moved the pic folder to the root of my SD card and the problem went away. I think there might be a limit to the number of sub folder depth for scanning. SD\MyDoc\PIC\(segregated folders) would not work. The only weird part is that it did find the videos in the segregated folders but no images. Strange. Regardless, everything shows up in attaching, file manager and gallery.
I just created a folder in the dcim folder called oldPics then moved all to that folder. Bam! Shows up in there own folder in gallery.
sd card issues..please help
having issues with sd card showing mp3 or pictures from my sd card. in the file explorer the files are there but in gallery or music player they are not. I have deleted the Android, data, Lost.Dir folders with no changes. Can anyone point me in the right direction with this?
thanks 949BFN I have tried your suggestions. still having the same issue. the files work fine from file explorer but not in their respective apps. I have downloaded about 10 apps between the gallery and sd card and none of them recognize the sd card. any other suggestions?
I had the same issue. Pictures on the SD Card (which came from a S7 Edge) were not recognised by the native Gallery app. (Quickpic did not have an issue displaying the pictures). I could however not get any app to recognise music (mp3's and playlists) on the same SD card.
After trying the suggestions in this thread, I realised that all one has to do, is to rename the folder to something else (I e.g. changed my "Music" folder to "Musicd". I forced closed all Music apps, reopened the apps and all the mp3's and playlists were immediately recognised. (Not sure if this step was actually necessary). I forced close the app again, changed the "Musicd" folder back to "Music" and all is well. All Music apps (including Google Play Music) no recognise the music and playlists on the SD Card)
I did the same with my "Pictures" folder and subsequently, the Gallery app picked up the folders. However, I now have an issue with the Gallery app crashing about 10 seconds after opening it I've tried all the usual stuff (clearing phone and the app cache); rebooting etc. with no luck so far.
