Do a soft-reset. When your phone boots back up, go DIRECTLY into file manager and delete the file. If you visit the music tab in TouchFlo 3D before trying to access the file, it won't let you delete or make any changes to it.

This is going to be a challenge trying to get my point across, but here goes.
Lets say i have one image/video in the gallery and i wish to delete this image/video, i mark it for deletion then select delete, the image/video seems to get deleted, i hit the home button and then re-enter the gallery and the image/video has gone, or has it? now, while still in the gallery if i press the back button to exit the gallery then start the gallery again the image/video is now back, it doesn't matter how many times i delete the image/video, it allways comes back, even afer a reboot, now here's the really strange bit, when i check to see if the files have been delete from the USB storage using a file browser i find that they infact have been deleted, but they still show up in the gallery, this behaviour occurs with all image and video files, camera files, received files over bluetooth, etc.
I hope you all can understand what i am trying to say and i hope i got my point across ok, btw, this is the second Nexus S i've had that exibits this issue, i've also done a few factory resets on both Nexus S's i've had, but this issue just wont go away.
This seems to me like it's a bug in Android 2.3's gallery app, does anyone else see this very strange behaviour? could someone test this on thier Nexus S? does Google know about this issue?
BTW, this issue only seems to occur when i delete all images and videos in all folders, or if i delete all folders that are in the gallery, i would have mentioned this earlier but i had only took one video and one pic to test the camera.
So its been like this since stock. Drag n drop music to several different directories trying to find the path that works. /music, /media/music, /media/mp3. Just doesn't show up. if I navigate to the music files manually they will play but only 1 at a time. I want to just hit shuffle and put phone off to the side. Any ideas?
Edit: solved, for whatever reason there was a .nomedia file on the root of my sd card and apparently it makes all sub folders invisible.
You know, this happened with me as well with this phone. But not any other android device I've had (This is the fourth). Is this something that the device is shipping with? It's kinda weird.
All of a sudden when I select the Internet Explorer Tile from my home screen on my HTC Mozart nothing happens, it just refreshes the home screen tiles, usually when apps do this rebooting the phone fixes the problem, but not in this case, I cannot open pages from Bing or open links. My phone has been updated to Mango and I have tried to revert back to an older software version but on my Zune there is no option to reinstall the update. I dont want to factory reset my phone because I will lose everything I have downloaded and purchased.
Any help would be appreciated, thanks.
Does it happen if you hit the arrow and select it from your full application list?
If it doesn't remove from home screen and re-pin it.

Thanks for the reply, if I open it from the tile of from the application list it still doesnt open, I have tried unpinning it and pinning it, opening it through links in text messages and through bing but nothing works, I have cleared the history and cookies but still nothing, I dont understand what has caused it.
In the hacking sub forum download my Supreme Shortcuts app and see if the two IE shortcuts open for you.

How do I deploy a .xap file to my device?
Do you have htc connection setup?
if not can you download it from the marketplace and run it?
You won't lose everything.. just saved games. You have to redownload from marketplace but when you click buy, it will tell you you already bought it and download it for you. You can see a list of what you have downloaded at www.windowsphone.com. Sign in with your hotmail id.
not sure what else to tell you from there.
IE will not open on my Samsung Omnia 7 too!

I have the same problem, like like you described. I was using my omnia 7 (wp7.5 unlocked, latest firmware) and suddenly i couldn't open IE, nor launch it from any app. Besides you, i haven't found anybody with the same bug...

you wont lose all of your purchased apps cause you can re download all of your purchased apps for free.

Solved mine on Microsoft forums, switching IE settings from "open in new tab" to "open in current tab" miraculously fixed it

I was facing similar issue. I guess I know when it started (but not sure about it).
I had opened Google Search app. I was searching some images. In results displayed, I clicked 1 image. It opened Internet Explorer. When I tried to open "Tab" from Menu to close tab and exit IE, IE was simply not getting close and it was opening continuously. I finally pressed Power button to switch off phone. After phone restarted, it wont open IE. After changing from New Tab to Current Tab in Settings, problem temporarily resolved. But I observed that while internet explorer is open and I open the tabs, it shows absolutely nothing, it doesn't show the tab for the page that is currently open or none of the other tabs that are open. Rather it shows Blank page with symbol to add new tab. But even new tab is not getting added. I tried several reboot on phone but somehow "Tab" thing is broken.
Hope this bus is fixed in 7.8.
(After I reset my phone, now IE is functioning normally with tabs working as well).
I listened to my music on the Sky ICS GS3 music player fine on my way home yesterday and when I went to listen to my playlist today nothing would play. The timer woould sit at 0 no matter where it was in the song. After a little bit I went to All Songs and I noticed that each song had a second copy. A song would show up as 2 files that were seemingly identical except the first file was blank as I described above, while the second was normal and intact. All the music in playlists were the blank copied versions though. Has anyone else had this happen or know how this could of happened so it doesn't happen again? Should I remove all music from my SD and reload?
Why wouldn't you try that? Gotta start somewhere, ya know...
Dump your music, open the app, see what you have left. Research and dump whatever's left.
Reload music to SD via Windows. See what you have in the app.
Rinse/repeat till you figure it out.
Worst case scenario, you need to wipe your phone and reload the rom. I've had crap left over on my emmc that caused oddball issues on the next flash. Gallery finding every album cover, wifi drops, etc..
Can say the latest ICS works perfectly after a full wipe and reload. Redid my TB backups too.
This is a new problem... i originally deleted the settings for media storage after reading that that would get rid of the 3 times my ringtones were showing up in my selection list (when they only exist in one location.... i tried to make sure they werent duplicating themselves, the first 2 were silent and the 3rd was the real file.). so deleting that got rid of the 3 times thing, and i thought i had it licked. but every reboot, my phone forgets my ringtone setting... when i go to repick it, its not in the list, only the factory ones are.
Now, i *know* there is the work around of putting the one i want to use on the internal memory.... but thats kinda not the point... id like this to work properly. as it should. as it did before i reflashed. i reflashed the exact same rom and am using the exact same SD card.
upon googling and reading advice, i put a new folder on my sd card called media, and within there, ringtones, and notifications. (the site i read also recommended making one for alarms but i never use my phone as an alarm, ever. and the very rare time i will ill just pick a factory sound). As of right now, every reboot, i have to move the ringtone i want to use out from that folder, and then put it back in, causing media scanner to re-run, which then finally, once that is done, allows it to show up in the list along with the factory default choices.... but doing this every reboot just to have the sound i want is a ROYAL pain......... before i reflashed, it would forget what i had chosen on occasion, but at least then i could just go into the list and reselect it before... it didnt forget it existed, but only that i had chosen it. at the time that was a royal pain.... but now, id take that over whats been going on.
before reflashing i had a folder called "sounds" that it was able to see, all the time.... i had left it the same... but when my phone couldnt see that anymore, i looked for other ways of making it work.
Not sure if this is related but i have on occasion (2 or 3 times now) had my gallery forget about ALL of my pictures on external (whcih is where i keep all of them). deleting gallery data at least fixes that, and that doesnt happen every reboot either.
and before anyone asks, there is no ".nomedia" file in with my ringtones, or in with any of my pictures.
advice anyone??
anyone?? Ive already tried everything google-able
