Known issue that may or may not be fixed with the next TnT update. You can try to make it better by putting a empty file named .nomedia into the folder where your stuff that vanishes is located. I haven't tried it but it may help. I don't remember if your music player will be able to see the files anymore though. May have to look in a file explorer to see them.

There are lots of issues with TnT 4.0.. Roebeet recently pulled it because of them. Your issue could be from the dataloop thing in TnT 4 or something else. I would recommend clearing data, and flashing back to TnT 3.1

Howdy!
On the weekend I copied the sound files from the Xoom to the Asus using adb. The files transferred just fine but initially did not show up in the selection menu for sounds. After a reboot they made it to the menu, however, they all appear twice.
SOLUTION: Instead of copying the files to system/media/audio/(Notifications, Alarms, Ringtones) I copied the files to sdcard/(Notifications, Alarms, Ringtones) and after a reboot everything is as it is supposed to be!

Since I had some trouble getting the files onto the TF I checked if maybe the files appeared twice as well but they are only there as single copy.
Does anyone have an idea of how to remove the duplicate entries?
Thanks!
Don't have my transformer to check, picking up replacement tomorrow, but its possible the duplicated ones are the default ones that come with the transformer and you have added them again. I'm guessing both tabs have the same honeycomb stock notifications.
Another possibility is that as well as /media/audio/notifications that you have them duplicated in /notifications which does the same job and would give 2 entries.

That was a very good suggestion but there are 2 issues:
1. The Xoom sounds were not included with the transformer; that's why I copied them in the first place.
2. I checked the folders in the root directory and they are all empty.
Maybe you can confirm when you get your device back

Just a shameless bump! Can anyone help?
Well, I managed to solve the issue. I deleted the audio files from the system/media/audio/notifications directory and the duplicates disappeared while the sounds are still playing. I wish I knew more about how Honeycomb handles the system sounds...

I have the stock Jelly Bean JRO03E which i got from here

I have been using it for a while now and the only problem that i face is that the Play Music app does not recognize music from the phone. It keeps saying Ways to add music connect usb and transfer music to phone.

I have transferred all the music in the Music folder in SDcard. I have made 3 folders in Music folder and those folders contain the music.
Previously when i was on ICS i didnt face this problem, but after JB i am having it. I installed PlayerPro and it also does not show any music, and even i cannot put the music folder in it.
Another problem is that now i have two sd card directories, on in direct phone with name sd card and other in storage then sdcard0
Is this a problem? what shall i do about it?
Ive got exactly the same problem
I tried flashing the new bootloader like someone suggested
I tried a super clean install
I tried the factory image directly from google.
But i still got this problem......
I got it solved! I am gonna share it with you too
There was a .nomedia file, I deleted it first. Then I removed the Music folder and then cleared the data of media storage from apps settings,
then rebooted the phone and a new Music folder created. I put all my songs in it and then open the Music player and all files appeared in stock as well as PowerPro
I had the same issue, had both SDcard and SDcard0, music showed on both in file explorer but not detected in play music. I deleted USB storage in Settings>storage, remounted USB storage, rebooted, made new music folder in SDCard and copied music from PC, all working
I have 50gigs of crap on my SD card. it would LITERALLY take the entire stinking day to move everything off the card format it and move everything back again (freaking MTP crap)
is there a better solution? for now I just moved the music folder into the download folder (the only folder player pro can see for some reason)
Found a solution that did not require whacking everything
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.humanrobot.scanmedia
install and run that. now the "Music" folder is visible in player pro again (MAN I HATE database driven access wish it would just see the stinking folders and use those)
I have a file on my internal sdcard called "system data" and it's over 500mb...
Can someone explain what it says and how to downsize it?

That's all your stuff needed to run your phone properly. If you want to downsize it you can delete unused ringtones and other sounds, but dont tinker with much more or you could brick your phone.

I've had this problem pop up even after running a clean install until I finally figured it out (for myself at least) SD card/DCIM/THUMBNAILS. It would usually use about 3.75 Gig if not more, until I would delete it and free up the space as it's really not needed.

Hi Guys, is there a way to force Google Play Music or any other music player for that matter to read and list the music files from a flash drive connected to the OTG interface? I would like a way to list the music from the portable drive in the library of the music player.
Anything? Nobody plays music through OTG?
A file manager perhaps like ES or RE? And guess the quality LOL

ill throw some music on my sd card with a meenova otg card reader and see what power amp does with it
will report back
Update: power amp doesn't have a problem with reading it. Though do note that I'm using a kernel that supports auto mounting it (chaos kernel on latest omni build) instead of an app like stick mount

A file manager is not exactly I'm looking for. I use stick mount to mount the flash drive and can access the contents through any of the File managers as you said. But what I'm looking for, is a music player that scans the flash drive like any other folder for possible music files and includes them in the library on the go.

Will be really helpful if you could check. I'll happily buy the player on the store if you can confirm this.
EDIT: Wow, thanx! That should do it. I'm on ElementalX and use Stick Mount, so that shouldn't be a problem. But its really annoying that most players including the GoogleMusic Player do not support this functionality. Anyways, thanx for your quick reply and help! :good:
Time to buy poweramp I guess!

edited my original post with screenshots with my findings
I posted about this before but found the screenshot I took when I changed my storage for videos to my SD card. There were only videos/photos on one day that became corrupted literally in front of my eyes. My question... where can I find the locations mentioned in this screenshot? It's like only part of the data was saved on the SD card... all Metadata missing and videos show all binary zeroes... yet the size is still reflected on the file....

Usually it is /storage/.../DCIM/... on either location, isn't it?
Does "details" of the video/picture (within gallery) tell you anything useful?

I'll try anything! Thank you! I tried several programs to restore based on data from other videos recorded and nothing worked so far.

No luck!
Forget it, it's lost for good. SD Cards are crap. Always. Not to mention inadequate filesystems.
Simply don't rely on them but for the future: Make sure to have a proper backup, for example:
