Just lost half of the pictures moving from on-board to SD - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727

It is running CM 10.2.0-skyrocket and I just wanted to make some room on the phone for my senior mom by moving pictures to SD card and to my surprise half the pictures, if not more, is just a pixelized mess or just gray box.
Is there a way to recover the original pictures on-board storage?

from my past experiences w/pics short answer is no, once they've corrupted ur sol, best practices is to "copy" first then see if that went ok b4 deleting. i guess u "moved" the files first

Thanks for the reply, I installed several different recovery software which I think should have no problem recovering the pictures (I used them for SD cards before) but this darn phone does have Mass Storage Mode.
So I installed a couple of mass storage enabler apps from Play store, but when I enable Mass Storage Mode, I end up getting these:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
When I disable mass storage mode, I get access to internal drive but it shows up as media device of course and that doesn't get assigned a drive letter.
Yes, I should have copied first, big mistake, lesson learned, with one sad mom looking at gray boxes now..

[Q] the busy box destroyed my devic

I have a 7 inch tablet from a unknown brand thit i got on ebay for 65$.... with android 4.0.4, I did it Root with super one click
Then the Titanium backup wrote that busy Box is not installed so I used the application "busy box installer" and installed the BusyBox with smart install.
Then when I turned the device back on, it suddenly lit up like a new device without any application and settings are reset when I tried to install applications, he wrote that the available memory is low (the device is Quite empty) when I look at settings \ Internal Storage, total space includes 0.00b.
If somone could please be abel to explain to me what happened, and / or how to fix it?
If it was $65... it's possible you used all the internal storage and that it's not empty, but totally full. It might report a larger storage size, but simply be re-writing over information or just ran out while installing.
i did a factory data reset
1.i did a factory data reset end it didn't help nothing
2.its not thit the memory is full it simply writes that all of my memory is 0.00b

[Q] All my internal storage data was moved to a hidden folder & I can't access it

All my pictures, Titanium Backups, etc are on this card, but I cannot find them. I flashed Liquid's ROM and did a factory reset, but for some reason it only backed up some old files in the 0 folder in my internal storage. That folder was actually one level down from the root-below the card's default storage spot, so not sure how it happened. When the OS loaded up and I saw everything was gone, I had a tiny heart attack. Couldn't find it with Solid Explorer, but saw that there was only 3GB of space left on the internal card, and this was a clean flash with literally no apps installed or data on the internal storage card. I knew my data must be somewhere on it! I remembered the app called Disk Usage that shows what's taking up space in your memory cards. I installed it and sure enough, there was a huge amount of data in a System folder. You can open the folders directly from the app, but I don't have the option with this folder (as seen in the screenshot, the SHOW option is greyed out). Can anyone help me? I know the stuff is there, just not sure how to get to it.

Found the answer in case anyone ever runs into this issue.

[Q] Sd card corruption?

I've recently flashed Alliance ROM (aka beans build 21) but i've been having this issue for awhile now on and off even on previous builds and i'm wondering if anyone here has any solutions. Occasionally after a few days/weeks ill notice that some things just disappear from my external sd card (i.e. my entire music collection, pictures, camera folder, etc). Totally gone. The only thing that's left behind is a folder slightly resembling the original folder name. This is what the folders look like.

Again, i have no idea whats going on here. The sd card isn't that old, and its a class 10 uhs 1 Sandisk. I've never had issues with their products before so im assuming it has something to do with the phone itself or the ROM. After a full sd card format and re-transfer of most of the information that was previously on the card, it seems to perform perfectly fine. But again, after a few days (sometimes only one or two) the same thing happens and i have no idea what's going on or what i can do about it. I've done a full wipe on my phone (factory reset, data, cache, dalvik) including the internal sd card thinking that maybe it was some sort of rogue file on my phone causing a problem but i'm still having the same problems. Any info on what i can do or and ideas about whats going on would be awesome!

Unknown storage use on Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 2014

Hi guys so basically I've been having this problem of not knowing what's taking up all my storage space on my samsung tab. It's not that bad of an issue but since I use this tablet to take notes during lectures, the space is very much needed.

}
When I click into the "Used Space" tab it tells me that apps are the biggest cause of the space deficit (about 5.55GB - the other categories in here take up very small space). However when I click on "Applications" within "Used Space", it shows me the image below. It doesn't really make sense as my biggest app is Evernote at 785mb. I have other apps also but surely they all don't add up to 5.55GB (there's only a few over 100mb the rest are fairly small).
I then thought the problem is with the "Miscellaneous Files" as it says that is taking up 4.81GB. Howeverthe image below shows this isn't the case.
So then I finally proceeded to use ES File Explorer to verify if there was 4.81GB being taken up. See the image below.
Fair enough the ES File Explorer seems to match up with Miscellaneous. But still, how can a 16GB file space be taken up when there isn't even 5.55GB worth of apps?
Can someone please help me with this as I really need this space to make my lecture notes. THANK YOU!

I don't like Google drive. I use mega. Never had any issues. But then again I'm firmly against Google having so much control over my device.
When you delete it goes to trash. Look carefully and locate it. Empty it
Yep, it's probably in trash and needs to be emptied. But this will be done automatically after one or two months, nonetheless.
Also, if you deleted really many files, it can take quite some time till all of them show up in trash.
maybe google drive's cache ,try to format cache
