HELP! recovery of missing, probably deleted, photos.... - OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have connect my oneplus2 to a win pc and I was trying to drag-and-drop some very valuable photos from the camera directory (of mobile) to another one (in mobile).
All photos were erased from the camera directory but never appeared into the new directory.
My rom is aicp and windows in pc is win10.
I have no disconnect yet the mobile from pc and Im trying to recover the deleted photos with the assistance of an app named "diskdigger" which was downloaded from google play. For the last one hour is running and has cover the 23% of the disk space but it is not recovering any erased photos but rather is showing the existing photos.
Any idea or advice on how or what I should use to recover the photos?
Thanks,

[Q] Browse/Manage TPT from PC

Hi again,
I was going to transfer some files from my pc to TPT today, and realised that it's not showing up on windows explorer.
(I can see the device in the Device Management screen).
In my tablet, under "USB settings", I selected "View contents of SD card (Mount)".
I went to the Lenovo download page and didn't see anything that looks like a driver for this..
Apologies for the very noobish question, but appreciate any help!
I think you should use "transfer files (Media Transfer Protocol)" as stated in the manuals.
Now, rather than creating another thread, i'll just ask here, since it's pretty much the same topic.
I have a problem with transferring files using cable data to my TPT, My pc recognize the TPT and shows the correct drive size and remaining memory. However, when i opened it, I cannot see any folders, files, or anything. I also can't create anything at all from my pc.
Any solution/thoughts on this?
I forgot to add some things :
- I'm using Windows 7 32 bit
- I'm using TPT 0074 ROW
- My TPT is rooted
- This is a new problem, which means originally, I don't have this problem. And sadly, I don't remember when exactly this problem appeared
- Factory reset is currently the very last option for me

Trying to copy several, small files from my SD card

Hi,
I’m running into an odd problem.
I have a Google Nexus 7 Tablet. I’ve unlocked and rooted it with the Toolkit. I’m attaching it via USB on a Windows 7, 64 bit system. I’ve installed the PDANet drivers.
I’ve made a back up of my tablet using Titanium Backup. Within the Titanium Backup directory are many small files, that I’d like to copy back onto my desktop for safe keeping.
However every time I copy the directory over to my PC using Windows Explorer, only a fraction of files get copied, I’d say about 20%. I’ve tried it several times, but, can’t seem to get it to do a complete copy. I’ve tried selecting the entire directory and the all the files (select all) without success.
When you plug in the micro USB cable to your tablet, does it automatically go into mass storage mode (though I have selected Mass Storage mode as my option).
I’m coming from several Samsung devices and I know there are a few ways to enable mass storage mode on them, and at a minimum, you have to choose to mount the SD card. Is there something similar with Asus devices?
What am I missing?
Thanks!
I rarely send files via the USB port... normally just use the wifi connection. Just sent all the TI backup files via AndFTP to a server over WiFi and it only a little more than 5 minutes.
I then for the first time, hooked up the N7 to my USB to transfer the files to my notebook.
Didn't make any changes.
Created a new directory on my Notebook (Win7Pro) and then opened the drive on the N7, found the TitaniumBackup directory and selected all the file (not the directory holding them).
Took about 5 mins to move the files which was about the same as the Wifi transfer.
Not errors, and all the files got there.
Not sure if that helps you...
Oh. the N7 is rooted with TWRP recovery on it but otherwise Stock.
BTW.. this morning I tried this app which is a sync app between my workstation at home and the Droid. Worked good enough I upgraded and now have a number of manual syncs setup (droid to computer)

Hi krelvinaz,
Thanks for taking the time to test that for me. I did exactly the same procedure as you. I'll play with it some more and see if it was just a bad driver install or something. Perhaps I'll try it on my laptop at work...
And thanks very much for the link... that app does look promising indeed. I really appreciate that it doesn't sync with the cloud, but with my pc. That's great.
Thanks again for your help!
Update:
Ok, well I tried to copy the same files on my work laptop, which is running XP, and without any additional drivers, and it stopped at exactly the same place, at one particular file.
I then deleted that one backup file, and tried to copy the directly again, and it worked. I then tried again on my Windows 7, 64 bit desktop and it too was successful!
I guess that file was corrupted or something.
I'm glad I figured it out, and thanks again krelvinaz.
I got my N7 today. Just plugged in USB to my computer and copied my "backup-apps" folder and my MP3 folder from my phone. Moved very fast, now I have about 150 .apk's I can install if I have recognition problems with the Play store, and 2000 songs.... using up my "16" gb fast... about time to root and add stickmount.

Some Files Not Showing After Update to 6.0.1

I am not rooted. I can access my phone through Windows 10. But I cannot see all my folders. The 2 that I am having problems with are my Camera and Music folders. Some of the files are there. When I use ES File Explorer I can see and access them fine. Right now I cannot pull off any of the photos or videos I take. This all happend after upgrading to 6.0.1. I have tried 2 different cables and 2 different computers with the same results. I have made sure that USB Debugging is enabled. I also made sure that I had PTP and MTP enabled. Also upgraded to the latest 6P drivers for Windows 10. Any ideas?
I'm having this issue on 6.0. I'm thinking it was a Windows update that caused the problem rather than a Google one. Yes, I've got good drivers, stock cable, MTP. Tried on Win7/10, USB 2.0 and 3.0 The Music/Photo files/Folders are on the device, but unable to be seen via PC Explorer. If I try and copy an existing music subfolder from PC to the 6P's /Music folder, I get an error, but I can copy a folder to the 6p if it's not already there.

Same on Nexus 6P, on 6.0.1 (but not on 6.0). I'm trying to copy some photos to my PC (Windows 10) and my PC sees the DCIM folder but none of the files inside of it. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling the drivers through Nexus root toolkit but still no luck I rebooted both the phone and my PC, no luck. It does let me put files into the DCIM folder and it can see them after disconnecting and reconnecting. I also tried MTP, PTP and USB debugging and none worked. I guess I'll wait for the next Android update and keep using pushbullet.
I'm having a similar issue except not on 6.0.1. Can't view photos I've taken last Sunday but all my November photos are showing via MTP. My moto x had this same issue where recent photos wouldn't show. My PC is running Ubuntu, not Windows.
I just performed a factory reset. Windows 10 now sees both folders. Hopefully they will roll out a fix soon.
All I did was change USB from charging to File Transfer and all my folders are showing in Windows 10, fully updated and my 6p on 6.0.1, just flashed it
This solution worked for me. Clean cache and data files for the external storage app and media storage app. After rebooting, the files will be rebuilt (may take a couple of minutes) and then you will see your files again. I did it and the 1st to show up was my music folder then all of the other folders. At first, I had no folders (kind of freaked me out) but they started to show up one by one. Good luck.

By doing this will you lose any of your files?
I didn't.
The 'Clean cache and data files for the external storage app and media storage app' solution worked for me on my Zenphone 2. Files didn't appeared right after reboot, took a couple minutes and they gradually showed up. Didn't lose anything.
Many thx!
Somehow digging up this "old" thread.
Tried above "Media Storage" and "External Storage" system apps data/cache wiping solution, ended up seeing even less folders/files on PC !
Real solution given today by @AzraelsKiss :
Reboot under recovery (TWRP for me, I guess other recoveries would just work the same), plug your phone into PC, all the phone's folders/files will be visible using PC file explorer just as it's an external HD !

USB Connection only showing as a CD

Hi Guy's,
I had my Galaxy Note 3 stolen by some dirtbag and looking around for a replacement I decided on the K3. I'm loving it and thanks to Hackerpower's thread have rooted, and flashed it to get rid of all the bloatware etc.
What I am finding though is that when I connect it to my PC it is only showing as a CD with the beijing version of the lenovo manager software showing. I want to be able to transfer files from my PC and vis-versa but no matter what I select I cant access the phone as a storage device like I could with my Galaxy Note 3.
If I select Media Device on the phone I see it as a CD with the above software showing.
If I select USB Storage I get the same.
If I select Camera I get the Phone Storage directory with 2 subfolders DCIM and Camera
I have downloaded the USB drivers from Hackerpower's thread and also tried various other download sites, all act the same. And yes I have selected debug mode but have also tried it with this disabled and same result.
Any help would be greatly appreciated as this is the ONLY thing marring this great phone for me.
BTW I'm using Limonchello as the ROM.
Cheers
Install "Windows Media player 11" on pc, and you will resolve.
ps. Search on Youtube WMP11 installation

File transfer on Linux

I am having trouble with file transfers on Linux (openSUSE 42.3). The phone is the Verizon version of HTC 10.
(To score some sympathy points, I just ordered and received this phone from ebay. It unfortunately was already "upgraded" to version 2.41.605.36, so until someone makes a hack available I am stuck with Verizon software.)
Initially when I connected the phone to the computer, the device notifier came up with "Camera" only. In this mode files cannot be uploaded to the phone.
I then edited the "libmtp.rules" file to include the vendor id and product id of the phone. After doing this the device was recognized as "Android phone". There were two options to open a file explorer---one which opened it again as "Camera" and a second which should be a file explorer in "mtp" mode, however clicking on this icon led to a error message:
HTML:
The file or folder udi=/org/kde/solid/udev/sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1a.0/usb1/1-1/1-1.1/ does not exist
.
I realize this is more of a linux-specific question, and I haven't yet tried posting it on a linux forum, but I thought I would try here first to see if anyone else had this sort of trouble with this phone on this operating system.

Yes!! camera:/USB PTP Class Camera is what you initially see when it is plugged into the USB port. (openSuSE 42.3). You click on that and you get to folders: store_528b0001 and store_00010001 along with two text files: about.txt and summary.txt. The store_528b0001 is the external SD card and store_00010001 is the internal storage.
Now then, I have had trouble finding all my photos EVEN THOUGH they are supposed to be in DCIM/100MEDIA in the internal memory. I can see the pics on the phone but not from my PC when connected. At least not all of them. Just took some 'recent' pics and I can see them from my PC. ??
As for the write... you can not copy a file from the PC to the camera with SuSE Linux -but- you can with Windows. I use VMware and have Windows 10 installed. You can use this Windows to copy a file from the PC to the Android Phone. At least I have.

Sorry to neglect this thread that I started, but actually the problem turned out to be the mtp version that came with Leap 42.3. Updating this (libmtp9) from version 1.1.13 to 1.1.14 fixed the problem. I can now access internal storage as "read/write".
