Most bizarre thing I have ever seen. I connect my Inspire to my PC as a hard drive. Copy music to it but when I try to access the music from the phone, the folder is empty. I can copy ZIP files or APK files to the phone with no problem. But the MP3 files magically disappear. I have copied music to it before. I even formated it again. It lets me copy everything except the music. I tried fixing permissions but still it does it. Anyone ever experience anything like this?
I have kinda the same problem. My phone does not display anything when i click on the music app icon it says there is none even though the my file manager shows there are? My Ringtones are the same way, I've even reformatted the card twice now and it still says there are no mp3's on my card.
A lil more info would help like, what rom, stock, rooted, etc...
Hi guys,
I am having a problem with my phone, i've researched everywhere but it seems that no one is experiencing the issue as me, or at least I couldnt find anybody.
The thing is that one day after syncing my phone, when I unmounted the sd card(in the correct way) and I inserted it in the phone, the phone started to freeze everytime I locked it, once I locked the phone it became unresponsie, everytime. I can turn on the display but it doesnt respond to touch, the digital buttons either. However, if I get a notification it does show up in the display, so the phone its not dead.
This behavior happens with every card I have, ive tried with 3 different cards and everytime I sync them to my mac my phone responds this way.
I did a factory reset, I wiped everything and installed different roms but the issue remains. I also formatted the cards several times.
For the phone to work correctly it has to be card-free or with a sd card that has never synced with my computer.
I uploaded a video to make the problem more understandable, Im really desperate so any help will be greatly appreciated,
thank you!!

If the issue only happen AFTER you sync it to your PC that would make me think to look at what files you are syncing and how you are doing it. What are you loading on to your sd card? What class is your SD card as I have seen cards with a class less then 4 can cause issues.
Yes I thought of that, im just syncing music, and its the exact playlist i've been syncing before with this phone. I did a virus scan and nothing. Maybe a file suddenly became corrupted, but there is no warning about that..
I've tried with class 6, class 4 and class 2, all with the same problems..
I forgot to clarify that yesterday I synced the same files and for a while everything worked perfectly, I was able to play my music, etc. But all of a sudden I opened the camera app and the phone freezed, It did this everytime until I removed the card...
I appreciate your help, thanks

Sounds like maybe the virus scan is not detecting it. Are you syncing it while the card is in the phone? I would try that with blocks of music until the problem pops up and then you can slim it down from there
zelendel, thanks for your help, I did try those things and the problem remains.
However after trying different things I discovered that the files are not the problem because I synced all my music wirelessly and everything worked perfectly. Until I connected my phone to my mac without syncing and unmounted the sd-card.
My guess is that there is a problem with the mount-unmount mechanism, it may be a hardware issue I dont know. Its weird, because once I unmount, the sd-card prepares and the phone identifies it, but after that I cant open any music application, camera, etc and once I lock and try to unlock the phone, it freezes as I stated before.. Im lost
What do you think? any ideas?
thanks again!
Same Thing here in Xperia mini St15i Please Helpppppp?!

Sorry, something that is confusing....if you are unmounting your sdcard then that is why that you cannot open files..it is unmounted. What happens when u pull your sdcard out? unmount it from settings>storage and see how the phone behaves....if works smoothly then it might be a slot issue....
If your phone rooted?
Its stock rom? Hace u ever do something to ir? Probably its hardware problem.

Hello fellas
Same problem experienced here on two different Huwawei android phones -> sonic and ideos..gingerbread and froyo respectively.
Everytime the phones do sdcard I/O opps, all UI elements become unresponsive but bg tasks run coz they ring during incoming calls and texts.
The sdcard is the same...a 4gb kingston.
I know the sdcard works well because i've tested it more than once using H2testw 1.4 ....no flaws reported at all!
The card also works flawlessly on my nokia E63.
Does anyone have a fix for this?
sd card error ... guess so.
Hey there am too experiencing the same prob . When i insert the sd card class 2 the phone freezes , and becomes unresponsive until i remove the card ... Since dis post is about 2 yr old so guess there might b some solution to dis prob ... .... thankzz in advance
Hello everyone. I use the Huawei G300 for a couple of months and I have to say that for the money the phone is the best buy. I switched to ICS B952 and I must say that it is much more functional and more beautiful, a little slower, but it's not that bad.
But I have one problem that I do not know how that resolve, and the problem is same from the ICS and GB.
While I had VIP rom I had no problems, and these problems were created when I switched to ICS B952, then came back to GB B894 thinking that I'm going to address the problem, but nothing, so I'm now back on the ICS B952. Specifically the VIP's rom my work on the bell ringing for all calls and for each contact no problems, no matter how many times the phone put on USB and turn off SD card, and when it was ringing in SOUND folder on the SD card. Now I put a melody using root explorer in system media folder and everything works great until .. until you attach the phone to the USB and turn off the SD card. When turn on the card all sound back to default settings, in a sound that I can not find it either in the system folder on the phone. Even I reboot and voice messages, they disappear completely!? Then I have to re-inject the bell ringing and ringing for contacts that I want to give a different tone and a ringing message. Everything works nicely, ICS me a lot more beautiful than GB and I am satisfied, but this is bothering me. The problem is the same when I get back on the GB.
Is there some solution, some link for this my problem, I read on the net, but I have found the answer.
Say that my phone is root and I have CWM, if it might mean something!?
Hello and thank you in advance for your help.
Very strange. Just bought the phone yesterday and there were no issues. Loaded a notification sound via USB onto the internal storage and it worked fine. Now that I'm writing this, I'm considering maybe some how inserting the microSD card may have affected the storage memory mapping somehow? In any event, it was working now it's not. I've checked to make sure vibration is checked on and a sound effect is chosen. The sounds play when I choose them...just not when a text comes in.
Tried taking the microSD out. Still no go. Hasn't been rooted or anything...completely stock. Maybe will try another messaging app?
Anyone else having issues?

I'm getting vibrations for SMS.
is there a way to have media scanner run only on demand, like "rescan media root" does, but *without* having your phone forget your ringtone choices, or really anything else external that it has already detected before, upon reboot?? Ive even put the ringtones i currently want to use on the internal SD card... but it still forgets my custom added ones.... it sees the factory things just fine without the scan...
i like the idea of saving battery by running on demand, but i hate the idea of having to manually run it and then reselect my ringtone choices upon every reboot....
has anyone else figured out a good way to do both things without extra work on your end?
