A couple of questions for you mate...
What kind of files did you copy?
How are you trying to find them afterwards?

-it is a known issue for some android builds files being corrupted or "missing" after you transfer them through usb transfer....so, much better to transfer files in winmo or using a card reader.

Hi!
Q: Is this affecting every file transferred to the SD card, or just some?
Also, have you still got your phone connected to the PC? Your HD can't read the SD card while the phone is plugged into the USB port. (not sure about bluetooth, since i don't use it) If you open the file manager you will see that the storage device disappears when the phone is plugged into the computer.
well i think i fix it man...format few times my card... with win xp , i have put 1 of new roms and problem solved for now,
otherwise i wass geting problems with diferent kind of files...pictures, mp3s...zip files, w/e and they exist on card but after i try to open, says corupted...
I got same problem.
Moreover, I can't see the µSD card when I plug it into PC !
How do we format the card with PPC ?
---------------------
Edit : solution found : downloaded st.ppc420.arm.cab (storage tool), and suceeded formating my SD card !
Now everything works again : I can use my HD like a USB key again.
well, i use card reader...and on right click u can do that, i hope your card is not dead
well i tho i solved this problem...till now ocurs again, onestly dont know whats the problem...now i got 6.5 mobile, basicly im geting this problem when i try to transfer large files and large zip files like up to 100meg.
anyone got this problem and solved?
ty in advance

I've a strange problem with USB mass storage.
After coping files to the device via USB mass storage, I can't see this files on the device. Accessing them from another computer works fine. After rebooting the device, the files are empty (size of 0 KB) or completely gone.
This problem is new. A few weeks ago, different ROMs worked :-(
I've tried several things:
- Using different Android ROMs (e.g. HyperDroid v1.6 worked two weeks ago, today not)
- Using different WinMo ROMs (e.g. Goatrip Android, EPS v5)
- Using different Radios (2.12.50.02, 2.14.50.04, 2.15.50.15)
- Reformated SDCARD
- Reflashed HSPL (1.66)
Now I'm of ideas. Any one else?
lg,
Funny
Maybe try unmounting the sd card first?
It's not possible to use USB mass storage if I unmount the SDCARD first.
I've tried more Android ROMs, cause every ROM I used before was an CM6 ROM. Tested at last with phireMOD Skinny Evo v1.5 - same problem.
And once again: no problems in WinMo.
What's wrong with my phone
It seems to be problem with SDCARD access:
- Copie file via USB to the device
- Renamed to file on the device
- Opend the file on device (from PC via USB)
- Disconnected USB connection
- Check SDCARD via ASTRO: can't see the file
- Unmounted SDCARD
- Removed SDCARD
- Inserted SDCARD
- Got message "Preparing SDCARD"
- Can't start apps
- Tried to unmount SDCARD again: system hangs
I don't understand this problem

+1.
I'm on FroyoStone V3.2
Just use a program like Android Commander to copy files, or switch back to WinMo. It's well known that USB mass storage has some serious flaws.
I'm having the same problem with Bangster too. Sometime, copying single files at a time help but I still get 0kb files.

I'm very suprised, because I never heard about this issue before. But if it's a known problem, I've to accept it
I was previously able to copy files from my pc through USB to the transformer to both the removable and internal memory; however, this week I get a "Cannot copy file; device has stopped responding or is disconnected". I can still browse the files that are there and even delete them, but I cannot copy to either memory area.
I see in XDA and google searched that this error is usually fixed by formatting the drive, but with internal storage?? I dont want to wipe the memory, but I would like to transfer files this way.
I can connect external hard drive through the keyboard dock and transfer files. just not through the provided cable and the PC. I have uninstalled the drivers and rebooted the pc and reinstalled with no luck.
Any ideas are appreciated.
Bump. No ideas?
Btw. I have updated to 3.1 but I had this problem on 3.0
No one else had things problem?
Could it be the cheap ass cable??
Sent from my MB860 using XDA App
if i had to guess, i'd just say the cable is bad, or you need to remove and reinstall MTP drivers.
I also have this problem, tried restarting the pad, doesn't work....
If anyone knows how to fix this it'll be greatly appreciated!
Most likely a windows driver issue, try connecting it to a different PC (to narrow down the problem: if it works on a different PC, then we know its a driver issue, if it doesn't then we know the problem is with the Tablet or the cable).

Hi,
Copying with a cable can sometimes lead to data corruption.
Try using a card reader.

Try unmounting and mounting your sd card within android, that´s what´s happening anyway during a reboot, due to that you can see the files the second time around.
I have heard of an app, something like dual mount or so (i´m really not sure, sorry), try using that, maybe in that case the file system updates right away and not only after the next reboot.

I tried transfering a few files to my SD card through USB cable plugged into a HD2 on AmeriCan android. In Win7, the files are copied successfully but in ES explorer, the files aren't showing.
I tried plugging the phone to the computer again and I see the files I copied over in Win7. Tried unmounting and mounting the SD card to no avail.
Is there something I did wrong or missed? Sorry 3rd day using Android (and seriously considering it as my main OS) so I'm a major noob.
Thank you!

I am not familiar with that particular Rom but there are some other Rom's that have a glitch and the file will only show up once you have rebooted the phone. Try this and see what happens...
It's common on a few roms, just pop you SD into your pc
Sent from my HTC HD2
there are apps like media rescan, that offer scanning media after you transfer the files. this is also available in SwitchPro widget, power control plus, and probably in some other tools I don't know about.
