I am using the Darkforce ROM of WM 6.1, after I insert a SD in my Universal, I found that aa file generated automatically called "EncFiltLog.menc". It will continuous exist no matter I deleted it or not.
Anyone know what is "EncFiltLog.menc"??
By the way, I am using Transcend 16GB SDHC. Today, I found that my PPC can't detect it suddenly, I tried to insert it on my NB, but there are some files halt! When I double click it and wait for a moment, a messege box appear and say there are some problem about I/O device. No any device can detect my card now, anyone know what's the issue? I even can't format it now...
Please HELP!!
THANKS YOU VERY MUCH!
.menc files
.menc files are encrypted files.
When you set the option to encrypt files (Start\Settings\System\Encryption) then anything new that is saved to your SD card will be encrypted (and will have this extension - although this extension doesn't appear when viewing from the device that encrypted the files).
To read the file, you must view it via your device. (You can view/transfer it onto your PC via active sync from the device that encrypted it).
If you have reflashed your device without backing up your SD via active sync, then I don't think there is any way of recovering the file . (NB. I copy everything from my SD card to my computer before reflashing, and then copy it all back again ).
Hi my friend!
I had the same issue but with things 4.1 ROM. I don't know how, but i tried every day to format my sd card, and after 5 days it worked I have also this file in the root... It's the encryption file i think...
Mine was a 2GB panasonic SD not an SDHC... Keep trying!
Thanks for all reply!
But I found that I haven't tick the option of"Start\Setting\System\Encryption" , but the file still exist! I don't know why...
Any my SD issue....
I an using this ROM for few weeks already, but not newly flashed. My SD have no problem before. Haven't backup the datas is my mistake! I am so regreted. My SD is now can't detect from all device, and I can't format it also.
ALL DATAS ARE LOST!! Just wanna cry!
damaged sd-card!
Hi! Had the same problem with my new kaiser. Also thought about problem of ROM or the device itself. But it was just the SD-Card itself. Bougth a new one - no probs anymore...
any true solutions to this?
I have this same problem, so the only way to fix it is to get a new card?
Step By Step To Delete File EncFiltLog.menc (EFLG.m)
1) Insert your SD into Card Reader Cut EFLG.m
2) Paste insde your PC
3) Defrag your SD card
4) Select Option Tools>Folder Options>View Select Show hidden file
5) Now you can see new folder ie File 0000
6) Delete the folder
7) Now your SD card become as original
I read somewhere (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2718217&postcount=9) that the hidden file "EncFiltLog.menc" is stored on every SD-Card by WindowsMobile weather encryption is activated or not.
So it should be no problem to have it on the card - as long as everything works.

I wanted to put some music on my sd card and i turned off my xda and took the sdcard and put it in my usb1.1 6-1 flash reader. Then I noticed that it was filled with odd corrupt files. It looked as if my valid programs on the SD card, mainly those installed using 'choose SD' in activesync, were dead
the sd is 256MB and 3 of the corrupted files in the root of the sd card
claim to be 1.3GB
I didn't format the sdcard when i got it the xda could read it just fine and i copied files from my mem to the SDflash and later on used activesync to install on it. So since this all happen after I put the sdflash in the flash reader. Could it be that causing it ?
This is not on a 2003 ROM so it's not related to any of those issues.
I make sure that before I remove my sd card from the card reader that I right click on the drive in "my computer" and click "eject", this seems to flush any cached or delayed write files and close any open files, give it a try and see if it prevent it happening again.
well i doubt thats the problem because i noticed those corrupted files when i plug'd the sdcard into the PC not when i put it back into the xda
i dident eject the card before taking out the sdcard of the pc
but i did turn off the pc which should result in pretty much the same thing
how do you guys take out the Micro SD card from the phone....do u guys just push the card and it eject or how? I can't seem to find a way to do it? Could my unit/device be bad?? please help thanks
I'm using a 512MB Transcend SD card for a year already and this is the first time I encountered such problem. It suddenly got its files corrupted, names are in symbols like boxes and some files claim to have 1GB of filesize. I can't remember what I did before it happened but im sure everything i was doing then is the usual thing. I didn't even remove it from my XDA. Is there any way to recover them? if none, is there any way to prevent it from occuring in the future? Please help
There is a way to recover them. Get your card into the card reader and start your undelete program (i have a great program if you want).
Seems you have Spb Pocket Plus and you have the storage card indicator active! This indicator seems to cause SD card erasings as many people (including me) tried removing the SD indicator & having no more SD wiping
If thats not true, then try to lock your SD card (the read only switch).
Cheeeers
this is the undelte program:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/download.php?id=643
oh shoots :shock: i already had it reformatted. but thanks so much for the reply Ezzkht
i didn't install Spb Pocket Plus though. And i tried locking the SD card, still the same, filenames are unreadable, just boxes and lines
Sometimes Pocket Hack Master can restore the files as well.
regards, M
ravelcop, even if you've formatted the SD card, you can still recover the files (the format process does NOT erase the existing data, it just deletes the 1st sector of the media)
Try EasyRecovery Pro (from the link I've sent to you).
Best of luck :wink:
Thanks guys, il try the softwares you recommended.
I hope we could find out what are the causes of this problem so as to prevent it from occuring in the future. Spb Pocket Plus autodetection feature could be one, and it must have other causes as well since i didn't have that software in my XDA
The problem of SD card erasing is cause by having two or more processes accessing the SD card all at the same time. This will cause trouble to the SD card system driver, and hence, will crash your SD!
Thats why Pocket Plus can cause this problem; since the SD card indicator checks the free space of the SD card every X interval, which could occur while having another process accessing the same SD card. :roll:
how to view
I had a sd card that was corrupt as well and I downloaded the file and it said it recovered 64 files. It said your files were recovered successfully. I saved the files in the directory and I can see them there but I can not view them to change them back to a jpeg file. Can someone help?
hi tia,
how did you download the file? i tried clicking that link but i get a page error. i think the link is broken. could you post the file here instead? i'll try to use it and maybe i could help you afterwards. thanks
All of the sudden, all the files on my SD card went missing! I was transferring music and video files to the device over USB (as a storage card, per the custom ROM USB/PC feature) and after it was done, it showed my card as blank.
I took the card out of the phone (XV6900) and put it into my SD adapter and into my computer. The 4GB card shows that 1.8GB are in use when I go to properties, however, there are no files at all in the root of the drive! Like they are invisible! (Yes, I have Windows set to show all hidden and system files, so that is not the problem)
How do I get my files to reappear? It looks like they are not actually deleted! i don't get why this happened all of the sudden
you can try an undelete program and check the sdcard while in the reader
undelete programs can handle sdreaders just like they can hd's

I'm using the same 4GB card as my old phones. this never happened on my Titan or TouchPro, each of which I have for a year or so. I have had a Vogue for 1 week and it has happened twice! does the XV6900 wipe the card periodically or when performing certain actions? even on a ROM update/flash it should touch the SD card when running from the RUU package in windows
Okay, I'm sorry if this should be in another forum, but I figured the minds in develpoment would have a better answer.
I have a G Tablet, running TnT lite 2.0.0 + 2.0.3 Sup, Launcher Pro, ES File Manager. I was trying to load some files onto the internal SD card using a standard USB connection to my laptop. It connected fine, I used the 'Mount SD Card' option that popped up in the notification section, and it appeard on my laptop fine.
The problem comes that I know the file structure of the External SD Card, Internal SD card, and System sections. So I KNOW I was looking at the Internal SD Card. I copied my files and deleted a txt file that was at the root of the card. Once I properly unmounted the card and checked it using ES Filemanager, none of the changes took place. My new files gone, and the deleted file still there and readable. So I pluged it back in, and the laptop shows the new files are where they should be and the txt file still gone. WTH?!?!
If I load the files the External SD (by removing it and moving them using a seperate SD reader), then transfer the files to the internal using ES File Manager, it works fine. I don't get it.
Okay, used the refresh option in Filemanager, nothing. Rebooted, now I can see the new files, but they have a 0 byte size. ??

Did you 'eject' the disk in Windows before unplugging the cable? Windows has been known to cache writes up and not perform the actual disk open until you eject or stop the device from the icon in the system tray. It caused me to lose some data on a jump drive, so ever since I make sure to force Windows to flush the cached operations by ejecting and waiting for it to tell me it is safe to remove.
The problem is 2.03. USB storage mode was broken with 2.03 and you will probably also notice some installed apps have vanished (another issue with 2.03).
Install 2.04 or the new and awesome 2.20. Both fix the problems. 2.20 is just as fast, but more stable than 2.03.
so i took out my memory card and put it in a new card reader, the card reader did something funny and all files & folders disappeared and there was just one 0kb file named USB&somegarbage. I put the card back in the phone and it surely created the DCIM folders again etc.
I then connected it to icare data recovery and i am able to see that all the files are still there with most of them not corrupted but the folder names are gone,I wondering if there is a way for me to recover the original file structure back? any one?
Thanks in advance.

In my opinion, I would just recover everything and just format that card. When you reinsert the card, the phone should restore default folders back and just place your data in the respective folders. I don't think there is anything you really need to add new folders for, other than the default unless you had a specific folder arrangement for photos or something like that.
Format the card to NTFS not FAT.
Do it either on your PC or Mac.
But you must install a NTFS app on the android, otherwise the device will not recognise the card.
You can format the card to NTFS using the app too.
The app will auto mount the card when the device is turned on.
I've found this method more stable than having the card in FAT mode.
I'm surprised Samsung haven't sorted this out yet!
