(Q) Problem Media Scanner Xperia J Jelly Bean. - Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E

Guys I have problem, after reboot my phone can not scan music, photo, and video on external card/MMC. I've tried a few apps but no result, I also tried flashing TTF again with flashtool but same... No result.....:crying:
Someone does anyone have problems like me???
Please help me.....:crying:

Well finally I can see someone with the same "problem" as me.
I had this problem, and still have, from time to time, works like this:
1. Turn phone on.
2. Give it 5 minutes, open Album/Walkman, etc : "No files" (or whatever it says)
3. Reboot.
4. Give it like 10 minutes : works.
I think it's because I have 1000+ pics and some music that it takes time? Otherwise the Media Scanner is messed up in this build (JB), probably. I still have no clue on how to solve this.

Problem Media Scanner Xperia J Jelly Bean.
Thank you, I hope this works well.... I was really dizzy when after I turn off the phone and restart files such as music, photo and video does not exist...... Is there the possibility of also because I wear a regular MMC???

[Q] mp3 decoding not working

Hi,
Just got the info from my children that mp3 decoding on their phones is not working (music player hangs).
Both have a Galaxy 3 updated with standard Android 2.2 (subversion is slightly different bcause of different phone customzations by the phone provider).
I tried different music players (stock, google music, winamp) but all causes the same effect: phone starts vibrating and the app crashes...
Of course, no troubles with any other media (video, youtube...).
Given all music apps are impacted, I suspect a problem in a system library.
I've searched in the forums, but found no mentions about my problem (strange, it is on two phones, so should be pretty common).
I'd like to stay with the stock rom, so I'd prefer either installing an app self contained (not using sytem libraries for decoding), or somehow fixing the system libraries w/o having to install a new rom.
I'd like to know if I'm the only one in this position, and if you have suggestions for a fix.
Thanks
You must do a hard reset of your phone.
Just type in *2767*3855# and your phone will restart.
Keep in mind that you will lose your data on your phone like: unsaved phone numbers, installed apps, mp3 (all are in your phone internal memory witch will get erased), those stored on you micro sd flash will not suffer any changes, so save your apps(or download them again), mp3,photos on your micro sd.
If this helps you please give me a thanks.
Hard reset done on one of the two phones, but problem is still there: mp3 player crashes (I've not yet re-installed 3rd party players, but bug is exactly the same as before the reset: mp3 starts playing few seconds, then phone vibrates and music hangs).
Rom on the two phones is JP4.
Also to note an other strange behavior: the phone shows a warning message when launching apps accessing the network (market, browser) to ask to activate mobile data connection... even when the phone is connected through wifi. This was not the case before the froyo update.
I'm not finding all this much normal...
Any further suggestion (I understand last resource is anyway installing Kyrillos rom)?
Thanks

I see. There is something you could do, and that is flashing the Rom again. Use http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1063940 to get the latest rom and flashing tools and here is the flashing tutorial http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=778880, i can bet that this will fix your problem. Or you can go to a local samsung service for repair, you do have warranty?

On other forums I found the problem is not uncommon.
Songbird is not exceptional, but does not use the buggy system library and works like a charm.
I've removed the stock app icon just to avoid running it accidentally...
It's a pity not being able to share songs with google music (app is using the buggy lib)
may b sumthin wrong wid sd. backup ur sd data & format it.. via phone.. then restore backed uo data.. & then try if they give fcs anymore.. :/
btw if possible let ur children to talk wid us, they might know better their phone than u .. no disrespect but its true.. :/

Media Scanner stucks Possible Sollution

Hi guys,
I´m a new active member , but an old passive reader so , excuse me if I reapeat something or something else.
So I maybe found a sollution for this f***ing Media Scanner Problem on ICS ROMS:
My Phone P920 O3D with Xperia OptimusRS Rom V6 and Accura Next V4 Kernel.
After Installing the OptimusRS ROM I and everything went finally fine , i met after some Reboots this Problem with the Meda Scanner:
It starts normal , but it takes ages to finish or it stucks at randomly percentage for hours or until you reboot the phone.
The problem happens often but not everytime , so I spend hours and hours to look for a sollution, and I disover that this Problem is present in different forums and with different phones ROMS and not least at stock roms, too.
So the standard possible sollutions was
1. to check the Cards Internal external if there any errors.
2.to format the Internal / External Card
3.To Try another SD Card.
4. To try The "Rescan Media App" on GP Market and Kill The Service
5. To uninstall the MediaProvider.apk and del Cache and Data and Reinstall.
To Reinstall Rom and so on,
for some people this may solve the Media Scanner Problem but I try all this things and after Hours and Hours when i try different kernels and It semms to work for a while , it happens again everything works fine , but sometimes when you restart , the MediaScanner stops at 0% or at 40% or whatever so i was despreate.
But finally I found for me a working sollution and the reason why the mediascanner stucks and i want to share with you.
You can simply check if you have the same issue:
look with a process explorer like quick info pro, when the Media Scanner stucks , if the process
"android.process.media" appears. If not the Media Scanner is killed by OOM. And the difficult is that the notification remains in the status bar but the service won´t work.
So for me this was Reason why the Media Scanner stops. And sometimes it restart by itself but in the most cases noting more happens until I restart my phone , even if i wait for hours.
There are three simple sollutions:
At first try to fix permissions in recovery mode you need cwm or twrp. Maybe this solve the media scanner problem.
Or use the rescan media app , you don´t need the root version , the simple is enough , just run once and the medascanner continues to work, but its possible that you have to reapeat this after a while , when the service is killed again. It works for me 100%.
Or you can renice the process.
Try to put the follow into a file named 09renice from init.d folder:
#!/system/bin/sh
renice -15 `pidof android.process.media`
This works for me perfect, before when I started some Apps at start like browser i have to run rescan media every 20 seconds , because the service was killed every time when the memory was low , i apply the renice script and restart the phone and it works , no matter what happens. And this without the need to run rescan media or something like that.So for me the problem with the media scanner is solved.
I hope this may help someone with this really sucking issue and excuse my english.

[Completed] THL T11 loses some preferences when restarting

I've been using my THL T11 for two months on Android 4.4.2 and it restarted 2 or 3 times every day. Also, each time it restarted, all my widgets disappeared. Few days ago, when I installed the Google Keyboard it restarted again but this time the android UI got broken, but I could hear all the sounds (low battery, new messages) and even I was able to turn on the torch. I decided to flash it with a new CWM Recovery and install a new ROM, which is an edited version from the latest official ROM with some issues fixed.
Some issues were fixed indeed, but the phone randomly restarted again several times. Each time the phone restarts (either voluntarily or unwittingly) some of my settings or preferences are gone and set by default. For example, each time I open an url, it asks me which internet browser I want to set as default. The same happens when I open photos, videos, launcher, keyboard, etc.
On the other hand, each time I plug the phone to the computer as USB storage device, the phone restarts immediately. But if I plug it as Media storage or Only charge, it works fine. I googled this issue and it comes that it must be some app installed on the SD card that crashes, but I can't find out which app causes this. It also restarts automatically undefinitelly , but by the time being I have to find the reason yet.
So, can anyone give me some help with these two issues?
Thanks in advance
Hi
Thanks for writing to us at XDA Assist. Unfortunately I can't find anything relating to your query on XDA, but a quick search allowed me to find this thread:
ThL T11 Smartphone MTK6592 2GB 16GB 5.0 Inch FHD Gorilla Glass 8MP camera
It might be a good idea to ask your question there to see if anyone else with this phone is having the same issue, or knows how to fix it.
Good luck!
Thread closed, thanks.

Absolutely perplexing problems since 5.1.1 update. (Verizon SM-P605v)

Device is locked and never been rooted. Took the 5.1.1 update and apps like Netflix and HBO GO fail unerringly after 1-5 minutes of streaming.
Somethings...
-Neither app actually crashes to the desktop. It crashes to the apps main menu.
-Both apps attempt to "redraw" (3-4 times in quick succession) after the player fails, then I can usually reload the video.
I have...
-Cleared data/cache
-uninstall/reinstall the apps
-did a full factory reset
ANY thoughts would be really appreciated. Not having much like finding any resolution here. Thx in advance
I have the same problem. I have flashed the latest firmware with Kies and Odin to make sure there were not issues and still Netflix stops playing as does Youtube, Plex etc...
I have spent around 8 hours trying to find a fix to no avail. I made sure that Display > Smart screen options were disabled. In developer options I checked Force GPU rendering and Turn off hardware overlays. I also tried and unending list of other settings to no avail. Does anyone have any ideas?
Thanks Chris

Go in to About Device in Settings. Does your status show "custom?" If it does, remove your SD card and transfer the files on it to your PC. Reformat the card on your Note and afterwards put the files back on it. There's a strange SD card glitch that occasionally causes the system status to show custom when it's not.

No my Device Status is Official. I tried using a different launcher "Google Now" hoping that a more simple launcher might clear things up but no luck. Netflix stops playing after a couple of minutes and youtube pauses. I want to be clear Netflix does not crash it just goes back to the menu where I can hit play again.
This fixed my tablet!
I may have found a fix. At least this fixed the issue for me.
The Back Story: (for you to compare similarities in device errors)
I have been having the same which started after the update. and my tablet has never been rooted either. I chatted with Samsung several times. They acted like this has never happened before and they kept saying it might be a bad wifi antenna. Which sounded like BS since I was able to surf the web and even watch youtube through chrome no problem. If I tried to watch videos on youtube, netflix, vudu it would reset as you mentioned. I even noticed that when I was using Polaris word it would erase everthying I had written randonmly. Samsung also tried to say it could be the app itself. Which I instantly doubted since the apps are made by different companies. I did the factory reset. I even took the tablet to Best Buy to have them do a system re-flash with no luck. I almost sent the tablet to samsung to have them try to fix it, but I had a feeling it was something easy to fix and I could save myself money.
THE FIX:........ I have no clue why this worked. If anyone knows why it worked I sure wouldn't mind hearing your thought!
1. Pop the sim card out.
2. Try playing videos on your apps. (Be sure to check a couple apps) It worked like a charm for me. I dont think I had to reboot to get it to work, but the fix stays after a reboot.
3. What you do not want to do is put the sim card back in because you will have the issue again.
- If you do put the card back in dont worry. You can simply remove it again and it will work again.
One thing to keep in mind.....I stopped my subscription on my verizon data plan. So it doesn't matter to me if the sim card is in. So If you still use Verizon Data plan and this fix worked then you should contact Verizon and let them know whats going on. Maybe you just need a new Sim Card. Like I said I don't know why it worked, but it did. I had data turned off completely so my device shouldn't have been trying to use anything other than wifi.
Please let me know if this works for you as well!
Thanks are always welcome!

It Worked!!!
Thanks very much for the suggestion. As it turns out the tablet came to me with a sim card in it. I never intended on using it with Verizon so I did not look. Once I removed the inactive sim card everything worked great.
Thanks again I really appreciate the help.

Looking to Undo Root and All Customization, Need Help to do So

Ok, so as the title says, I'm looking to completely undo having rooted my tablet, and all the customization I did to it, but I'm having a bit of trouble.
According to multiple apps my tablet is no longer rooted, and I got the stock rom from Sammobile flashed on it, and I have the stock recovery back, but I seem to be suffering from the wifi problem that CM suffers, I know this as I can connect to my 5G wifi as well, which I'm never able to do when the tablets wifi is working correctly, and also even connected I barely have any speed, if even any.
Now I know of the wifi fix you can flash through TWRP, but as I said, no more TWRP, and I don't want to reinstall it, I want everything back to stock.
Now, I know of Wifi Fix's for other tablets, like the Galaxy S4, that you can flash on with Odin, but I can't seem to find one like that for the Note Pro 12.2. So if anyone can send me a link I'd really appreciate it.
And also, I can't remember, but did the Note Pro 12.2 ever get anything higher then Android 5.0.2? Because I try to update it, and it says because my tablet was modified I can't do so. Plus Sammobile doesn't have higher then 5.0.2 but I read somewhere that it got 5.1.1 so I really don't know, any help on that front as well would be great.
Now, you may be wondering why I want to do this, in truth I'd rather have my tablet rooted, I save so much battery life getting rid of all the bloatware. But no matter what I do, there always ends up being a problem with my tablet.
I follow all the instructions given, I do exactly what everyone else does, even having someone walk me through it step by step once, and always it goes horribly wrong.
The first time my Nova Launcher would crash constantly, and then everything else would start crashing with it. Then the second time all my videos would play stuttering and jerky, and the audio would be out of sync horribly, and nothing I did would fix it. And now most recently, even though the tablet it connected to the computer, the drivers always fail installation, and even when they are successful, I'm still unable to actually access the tablet from my pc.
I read somewhere that it may be because I disabled Media Storage, but with Media Storage I have just as many problems, it drains my battery like crazy, it causes things to load up extremely slow when accessed through the computer, if a folder has a hundred files for example, it will take almost twenty minutes for them all to load up, and you can't do anything until they do, and if you try copying something into a folder without going into it you'll just be stuck in an endless loop of copying that never ends.
But without Media Storage everything loads up just as quickly as say an SD Card, so said 100 files only takes a few seconds.
And worse thing it caused, which troubled me for a long time before I found out what caused it, at random the media storage would decide to claim 20gb's of space, saying it was all taken up, when it isn't. And it would keep happening at random times, and at random sizes. Near the end it had taken up every bit of free space I had and didn't change back even after several days which is what led me to looking up what was causing that in the first place.
So as you can see, leaving Media Storage enabled is a big no for me. So as such I'm unable to root and customize my tablet for that reason as well.
Now, before you say how weird it is that I have such trouble, and how you have no idea why it would happen, there is a very key reason, Technology HATES me. Trust me, more often then not when I try to do something that works for literally everyone else it fails for me, like say connecting an Xbox controller and getting it to work on my pc. Yeah, never works even after almost 5 hours of trying. So yeah, technology hates, maybe even dispises me.
So anyway, if you can help me fix the wifi, and the update problem if that's possible, I'd really appreciate it.
Are you able to get it connected to a PC?
There are tutorials on how to go back to complete stock if you haven't tried Knox I might search for what people have done before they take the their device back to the carrier. Many people want to un-root before they give up their old devices.
