Do not update your profile via Setting/System Updates.
It deletes your pictures, videos, and movies. Just an FYI in a more prime location since not everyone reads the troubleshooting forum.

If you must do it, back your SD card up first.

I got question from SE PC Companion if I wanted to update. I updated, and followed every step. But when I restart my X8, I've lost all data, and I still got android 1,6. The Backup app wont Recovery my data, even if I saved it.
View 17 Replies View RelatedI have lost every thing on my sd card music, pistures, ringtones, all of it. I'm not sure what did it but the last message I got was there was too many songs on it and that is not true. It's an 8gb card with 700+ songs 15 pics and 4 ringtones so it being full is bs. I don't know what killed it but I suspect Ringdroid or 91Pandhome both have been acting funny for a couple of days force closing alot. Anyone else have this happen to them and is there a way to recover the data on the card as my laptop just does not see it anymore.

View 3 Replies View RelatedMy phone indicated that the SD card was damaged. I had to re-format. I lost all my data and music I downloaded from Amazon. I have been able to use the SD card after formatting but am concerned that it may crap out again. I am going to try to get a new one from Verizon, however it may be better to buy a new one from a 3rd party.

View 9 Replies View RelatedHas anyone attempted to update either their Profile or their PRL recently? I have been trying to do both (because it's good to do every once in awhile, and I'm trying to see if it'll help with my 4G issue) and it gets stuck in the preparation stage and never completes.
View 5 Replies View RelatedSo I've been running without 3G (disabling it with the Quick Settings app) for the great battery savings. However, in the past few weeks, I've lost 3G altogether even when I re-enable it. I've tried updating the profile & PRL, no luck. Any ideas? Hoping to not have to do a full phone wipe.

View 12 Replies View RelatedI frequently (once a week), will manually check for firmware, PRL, etc. updates. Yesterday, I tried whatever "Update Profile" is and after that I lost all of my pictures and videos. Is that what did it? Or do I have another issue here? Or did it happen after I took a pic of my home screen with Shoot Me? Also, I'm pretty sure I just copied my videos file from my PC (30 AVI's) to my SD card and then phone read them. Now, it won't, any after some research it doesn't look like the EVO even supports AVI? I'm pretty sure I didn't' convert anything than one DVD. Otherwise this phone is suhweet. 32GB cards can't come fast enough.

View 2 Replies View RelatedToday I woke up, tried to pull down my email and look up a couple things on the web and my phone keeps telling me I have no connection. The sync icon (arrows chasing each other in a circle) is stuck at the top of the screen and my battery is disappearing rapidly. I've done a couple battery pulls and reboots with no change.What I'd NORMALLY do is update the data profile under menu/settings/about phone/system updates... But something I didn't know about CM6 is that this option is not there. (unless it's hidden somewhere else, then please point me in the right direction)."No problem", I think There are other ways to skin this cat. I type in ##3282#, which should allow me into a menu that allows me to refresh the data service... The phone doesn't respond at all "Odd", I think. So I try ##786#, which should open the reset menu... The phone didn't respond to that, either.

View 4 Replies View RelatedBought my x10 about 6 months ago. A few months ago it started randomly resetting itself. 2 months ago it started resetting itself then going into a reset loop for a few minutes until it stayed on. A little while ago it just started shutting off and not turning back on for a couple of hours.
I searched on Google and there was a suggestion to update the software. I read the instructions and noted it said to do a backup. I went to m.sonyericcson.com/backup on the phone, downloaded the latest backup software, and created a backup. Took quite awhile but said it was successful. I then connected to the computer and did the software update. Turned the phone on and tried to do my restore thinking everything worked great. Unfortunately when I load the backup file it says
File Error: Cannot read selected backup file
Did I just totally ***** myself and lose all of my data? Any ideas on how to make this backup file work? I will go back to 1.6 if it means I can actually use my phone, at this point it is useless without any of my contacts, programs or text conversations
I appear to have lost both 2G and 3G data access (HTC Hero, android 2.1, O2 UK carrier) - specifically internet browsing, gmail/gcal sync and MMS messaging. Things work OK on WiFi. Phone & texts work OK anyway. I am not aware of having done anything. The APN settings are: Name: O2 Postpay APN: wap.o2.co.uk Proxy: 193.113.200.195 Port: 8080 Username: o2wap Password: password Server: not set MMSC: http://mmsc.mms.o2.co.uk MMS port: 8080 MMS protocol: WAP 2.0 MCC: 234 MNC: 10 Authentication type: None APN type: * I tried a factory reset - made no difference. Can anyone suggest what can take out 2g & 3G data simultaneously?

View 3 Replies View RelatedBizarrely I seem to have lost all the videos I had on my SD Card. Including those I had recorded with my phone, these were in the same folder as the photos which are all still there.
Also missing are the films I had on there in a totally different folder on the SD card.
It is as if I have set it to search and delete anything that ressembled a video.
Anyone know how/why this could have happened.
I have rebooted several times, and removed and re-seated the card.
I currently have the Galaxy S4. When I switch from the Droid Charge to S4 i put my SD card into my new phone.During the week I was able to see all of my pictures on the new phone then on saturday 6/8 half of my pictures disappeared. I called Verizon and of course they are saying its a corrupt sd card.
This is what I did so far. I removed my SIM card and placed it into a card reader and attached it to my computer. On my PC I unhide the following
- show hidden files, folders and drives
-unhide empty drives in the computer folder
I went thru all folders and could not find anything.
/storage/emulated/0
/storage/ExtStcard
I also looked at the device while the SIM card was inserted into the phone.
I can not get any kind of data on my phone after updating to cm 6.0 and idk if it is a verizon problem or if it was something i did?
View 2 Replies View RelatedHas anyone turned off copy protection on their app recently? We're finding that Motorola Backflip users can't see our paid apps, so we'd like to turn off copy protection as it doesn't seem to prevent pirating. But, we're worried that existing users will lose their saved preferences. According to bug 2047, the issue was fixed in November 2009, but according to some discussions, it actually still exists. It'd be great to hear positive or negative examples from anyone who's tried this recently. We're also thinking of putting out a dummy app to test things out and will report back if we do.
