Keyword: GetDatayBack. Google it, download it, run it. Hope you haven't write anything on your SD since you've lost your files...

It didn't help, some other ideas?

For me there was only one Solution that really worked. Unfortunatelly i cant remember its exact name. So i ll try to describe it.
There are two almost the same tools. First one is testdisk and the another ones name i am not sure. So try google testdisk for (recover,undelete) sd card or so, then google how to use it. It is a commandprompt-like tool, but quite simple to use.
Hope i helped sorry for my english.

I highly recommend testdisk.

Use easy recovery professional

The best file recovery program 4 windows:
iCare data recovery
Sgn : Is it important how did i send this?

huhhh
maybe you can try this
inside your micro has recovery
So
use card reader
install get data back
and try it!
100% work on my Formatted Hardisk 500GB!

If ur using Windows, u can use Recuva.
Mount SDcard when connecting ur X8...select the Music option in recuva..select your sdcard as location to search and u'll have ur music back.

Try Recuva

No one can install directly to external sd...
We can transfer to external sd, only after installation...
and
most of my application are in external sd only...

Partition/disk problem

Hey guys,
I want to restore some lost files of my xperia z with easeus data recovery, however it doesnt detect the phone because its listed as xperia Z in explorer and when u open it u see 2 disks, internal storage and SD storage. But because its packed inside the head xperia z it cant be detected by the third party software.. any idea how to just show internal storage and SD as stand alone disks?

You can root the phone if you haven't done so already and use the app undelete to recover lost files.
Or you can mount the phone in mass storage mode from the settings in xperia then usb connectivity.
Press thanks if I have helped

Mounting in mass storage only displays my SD card, which i dont want to recover files from.
I really need the internal storage to be shown without it being wrapped up in the header 'Xperia Z' so it can be detected by the recovery 3rd party software i have on my PC. My phone is already rooted by the way.. and the app undelete only supports external SD cards.. which is exactly what i dont need ..
Use another file recovery program, some support right clicking in a folder to recover files. For example back2life by grandutils

not true .. installed it, it also works by disk detection, did not detect phone..
If you want to mount a certain part as a disk try android commander.
Press thanks if I have helped you

It may be difficult since I doubt MTP will allow recovery tools to function properly, plus, the device doesn't let you mount internal storage in mass storage for obvious reasons.

Merge the interal storage to one partition

I just bought a new 32gb memory card, and im curious if it's possible to merge my two internal storage partition into one big ROM partition?
Currently the interal storage is divided like this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Is it possible to merge this in to one partition, so that I don't need to have 3 different partitions when I use my SD card?
nope thats not possible at all. not in my knowledge. both are totally different type of storage with different allocated addresses, one being much faster than other. plus when u plug ur phone to a computer or to a usb
the memory card is not readable by the phone during that time. So no you cant merge the two.

Ah, okay. I thought the two partitions came from the 16 GB storage.
If I recall correctly, I think I saw a post on how to it do a long time ago. Couldn't seem to find it again though.

You're correct, the two partitions do come from the 16 GB emmc.:good:
But still, you can't merge them.

its coz u always reactivate it without knowing.u can slaughter it but it doesnt make sense to stab it at da back while it doing its works perfectly
u can use titanium to uninstall or freeze system app if rooted, but i prefer u read first all information upon each app given
n use at ur own risk!
Sent from my GT-I9000 using xda premium
if I were you i wouldn't remove the app which runs the process.. it's a system process, droid knows when to run it or when not
try deleting the media memory (german: medienspeicher), this helps when there are media apps, that drain your battery
Look at sdcard0/DCIM/.thumbnails , i think that in it folder is huge .thumbdata[various numbers] named file present.

[Q] Strange storage ?

Dear XDA,
I've freshly installed Maximus HD 45. And it's working, no problems there.
But when I look at my storage I see something strange. I have 12.10gb used by 'Other'.

"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I've found some strange paths on my phone (taken from WiFi File Transfer Pro):
../storage/emulated/0/
../storage/emulated/legacy/
../storage/sdcard0/
They all seem to redirect to my internal storage.
Probally some leftover bugs from previous custom roms?
Is it possible to completely clean my storage without removing TWRP and Maximus HD? Or in worst case scenario I don't mind reinstalling a clean Maximus HD. But I prefer not to do to much modding on the phone, like installing a different RUU. Currently I live in Zanzibar and I have limited options (and internet!) when something goes awohl.
If it's a whole lot of effort I keep it like this. It's annoying but I can live with it. But if it's an easy fix then I would gladly do that!
Thanks in advanced!
Lennard
that's normal. to see what's using up your space I recommend you use this app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mobile_infographics_tools.mydrive
I'm not a huge expert on the technical side of Android devices but in my experience, those are the three common file paths to access internal storage. I do not know the exact reason as to why there must be three file paths. But it is normal. Nothing to worry about.
