files NOT displaying from internal SD? - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III

Running carbon ROM 1.3 my internal sdcard is not showing my anything that I have downloaded anymore on to my phone. The downloaded folder has disappeared and my music is not showing in es explorer. Though I can still play the files that I cant find, searches turn up negative when I connect it to the computer also. Only the external downloads show. Out of nowhere I'm now seeing Samsung apps and all share flees that weren't there before.
I also have multiple storages I can choose from that lead me to the same place ( see attached). I've used as rescan with no help coming from it. Any way i can go in and fix this error? Or even find out what's causing it?
Any help appreciated. Thanks much

People don't seem to be getting it. 4.2.2 ROMs will put a 0 folder on your internal SD. This will render everything outside of the folder "gone". Its all due to 4.2's multi user thing. I would recommend flashing back to 4.1.2, then using the file explorer move your music inside that 0 folder if you're planning on using 4.2.2 for any length of time. Either that or just start putting all your important stuff into your external then you don't have to worry about any of it

I'm aware of .2 and cwm /0 issue. The thing is this was not there before. This just started today. Been on the ROM for a while and this happened out nowhere. There was never anything more than SD card /0. Now unknown files are displaying and familiar files have disappeared. I'll try regardless though

Are there still issues with large micro sdcards with exFAT formatting in ASOP based ROMs?

When I was reading the forum I heard someone complaining that it wasn't supported.

Check out the Play Store. There are tons of apps out there that will allow you to transfer apps to your SD card. Titanium Backup has a batch setting to move all user apps to SD Card (not sure if you need PRO or not)
You are very confused about my question huh

Anyone know how to fix the sdcard security issue?

Ever since I upgraded from cm10 to the jellywiz rom I have been getting "Cannot access external sdcard for security reasons." I paraphrased because I can't remember the exact wording. Anyways anyone know why that is or if there is a workaround for it? I have tried multiple ROMs and even changed the kernel but it didn't work. I wanted to try to go back to ICS then back to another jellybean build but I am not sure how to do that. I hear it has bricked a lot of phones. Has anyone had this same issue and somehow fixed it? I miss my music.

So you can't access things in your sd card? I get the same error in boot, but then still have full access to my

Yeah it won't even recognize it when I plug my phone in my computer. It will recognize that there is one on my device but it says "blank sdcard or unsupported file system" It is the correct file system and it worked in ICS and CM10.

I kinda feel like I may need to go back to ICS to try to fix this anyone know a good way to do that?

Sounds like you figured it out. Now have you tried formatting the card to see if it can be saved. Obviously after you back everything up, since your computer reads it.

What size is the sd Card

Internal sdcard

OK I got a question I searched a bit and couldn't find the exact answer ... I've been wanting to wipe my internal sdcard since I've been flashing roms but afraid I'll have missed something and loss it forever ... I've got plenty of backups so I can always revert back but want to get rid of all the garbage that gets lost in the mix between flashing ROMs ... Besides my photos is there really anything important that's stored only on my internal sdcard??? Thanks for the help and hope this hasn't wasted forum space

Do you put your downloads and music on the internal or external sd? It depends if you put music etc on there as well. Also idk if 4.2 sdcard0 issue will matter to you or not.
I got my stuff saved on my external just was curious is there was anything system wise or anything specific that I'd need to backup or save

I think your good. Ive done it plenty of times with no issues, also you said you have plenty of back ups so I don't see any problems arising.

Content disappeared after ROM install?

I tried installing CM 10.1 from the newest Synergy ROM today, and all of my gallery stuff is gone, plus all of my Titanium backups. I assume this is because it isn't seeing my internal storage. Help please?
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda app-developers app
Look under /data/media or even under /0. It's all been moved there bud, due to the multi-user functionality of JB 4.2
Do I move those files somewhere or something?

Sorry, your "old" data is under /sdcard/0. Pretty sure you want your internal storage data that you intend to actively use under /sdcard for JB 4.2 roms. It should be under /sdcard/0 which makes it appear as though its inaccessible on AOSP roms.
More info here and here.
I'm using a TW rom so I'm not looking at this directly in front of me btw.
Not having much luck with this unfortunately.

I moved the files with root explorer as that link says to do, and now there's nothing in the 0 folder, and also nothing in the sd card folder. I don't understand what I did wrong.
Which is weird because I just tried flashing back to Synergy, and then downloading and installing a clean CM Rom and wiping from Rom Manager, and the files still are not there. But they are there in Synergy.
Screenshot where your internal storage data is located presently OR post the exact file path where it's located. And are you sticking with AOSP or TW? For TW, leave your data in /sdcard.
Moving from TW to AOSP 4.2, /sdcard gets moved to /sdcard/0. Simultaneously, it recreates new folders so you'll have empty folders in /sdcard that were rebuilt once you boot into the 4.2 rom. Cut and paste the "old" data in /sdcard/0 to that newly recreated directory once you verify that's where your "new" data is saving to. You can verify by taking a random picture then looking where it's saved to in the file system

Everything was in the 0 folder until I moved it to the root of the sdcard. Now everything is empty.

Hopefully this works. But this is as of right this second on the Synergy rom.
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda app-developers app
So in /sdcard, do you now have all your folders containing photos, Titanium Backups, and etc? As in, can you access them with the file manager?
Also, does every folder in /sdcard have a "." in front of the name?
I have them, but can only see them in Synergy, and not in CM

Aight, give me like twenty minutes to flash an AOSP 4.2 rom and look at this first hand. Maybe I'm just not understanding how to resolve your problem due to file paths.
But do you want to stick with AOSP 4.2 or stick with TW?
This is my current setup, I'm just trying to go over to the newest nightly build of Cyanogen and this is my only issue. But as I think I mentioned before, I'm pretty sure I moved all of the files in the 0 folder over to the sdcard root this morning, and now everything is gone.

Hmm, did you wipe the internal storage when flashing going from CM to Synergy? Cuz it wouldn't disappear when moving to a TW rom from AOSP since recovery doesn't wipe /data/media unless the internal storage is wiped.
If I'm understanding you, none of your pics/TB backups/etc are in data/media or /sdcard or /sdcard/0 or /data/media/0? It's just empty folders whenever you look in those places?

That is exactly the issue. No problems in Synergy, but CM doesn't see any of it.
How about under /storage do you see an folder titled "emulated"
Screenshot taken from CM and these folders are empty as well.

Do you have more information? What ROM are you running, has the ROM been updated recently? I can't really tell you what to do without more information.
