Anybody know what to do here?
Every time i start it, it crashes?
Mine did that at one time. Seemed like it was related to being plugged in to the PC. If you aren't plugged to your PC I don't have good advice, otherwise try disconnecting.
No, I wasn't. *sigh*
I tried going into apps and clearing cache and stuff - didn't help.
Mine too. It worked first day i had it...now it FC every time. Very frustrating too. I've even factory reset, force stop, clear cache, etc. Nothing!!

it happened to me twice, and I fixed it both by turning on airplane mode.
Hope that helps
I have had it happen to me also... the first time it was a bad ebook... ball i did was remove all my books and cleared the cache, then re-added the books one at a time... this time i have no clue what is doing it...

Awesome tip...was almost going bald pulling my hair out.
what a pita... thanks to this issue I wasted 2 hours tonight trying other readers, they all suck btw.
MyLibrary workaround
I found some information in another forum, where a member says he called ASUS - which told him it was a problem with the MyLibrary servers. Apparently, if there's an internet connection and the servers are down it crashes the app.
The workaround is to put it airplane mode. I did that and BAM - it will open fine.
Once MyLibrary is running in Airplane Mode, you can turn Airplane Mode off and the app will continue running. So you CAN read and get your emails. The servers are supposed to be fixed soon (within 24 hours of this post).
FYI, I had gone through - fix permissions ... and when that didn't work, cleared the data and cache for the app -- and when that didn't work, reflashed Prime!1.5 and THEN fixed permissions -- and was at my last step before doing a full reflash with a factory data reset before I found the workaround. Boy, I'm glad I didn't go that far
Same problem here. Just tried putting it in Airplane mode, and it didn't seem to help. It's really frustrating. I've scoured the File Manager and I simply don't know what's causing it to do this.
Edit: Wow, I actually found it from checking one more time. It was in a temporary folder in my Nook folder and it was a magazine. Crazy.
MyLibrary crashes on files it can not "understand"
After having several MyLibrary crashing problems I think its due to text files being discovered by the MyLibrary. During some kind of app installation a log.txt was created on the file system. Unfortunately MyLibrary scans the whole file system for books and text files. It chokes on a simple log.txt for example.
Sometimes it crashed not so fast and I was able to quickly open the standard epub Alice in Wonderland (actually MyLibrary re-creates it after you delete it from the file system), and it actually opened the e-book correctly. However it crashed when it encountered the log.txt.
Still Asus should really quickly fix this, because when people have gathered a large library of ebooks and book text files, then it will be hard to notice a "violating" file...
Anyhow, the deletion of the suspected text file really took away my problem. The first time I tried with factory reset, but it didn't work back then. So don't try to do the cumbersome factory reset!
By the way, with ES File Exporer I searched for the suspected file and deleted it.

So ultimately what's causing this is bad programming.

This essentially turned out to be my problem as well. But that is really pathetic. Other programs should be free to create the files they need without MyBuggyLibrary crashing on them - nobody asked it to scan them in the first place. grrr
Helpful tip though.
And what's most frustrating for me - is that I really like the way MyLibrary works. The 2-page layout in landscape mode is the most natural e-book reader I've held.
Mylibrary cash because of corrupted epub or when the name is too long or with unusual character. Copy all your books on a sd card and then delete them from the internal storage. Eject the sd card and then clear the cache of mylibrary and open again, it should work, then you can put your file one by on to see which one is causing the problem. Hope it helps, it works for me.

Or as I said when it looks at a file, which is not an ebook but the config file of another app.
Yes, I also try to eject SD card, clear the caches and reinsert SD card to solve the FC issues.

+1 This solved the problem for me.
Looked at the @vibe app under ASUS cloud, it kept giving an error that it could not connect to the server. After airplane mode if functioned again.

It's my birthday and the day of a big problem. So please assist ;-)
Been transfering movie files from PC to Tab via USB/MTP. The process was going fine until the last file to be copied. Then Tab lost connection. Reconnected the cable. Tried to copy the last file. Then Tab hung. Absolutely.
I disconnected USB cable and rebooted the TAB. It showed the Samsung animation, then "samsung" title, some gargabe at the bottom of the screen and .. that last forever.
Well, rebooted once again. Same situation, but screem garbage moved to top.
Well, 3rd reboot and .. whoa, eventually it booted!
But ... it asked me to introduce myself (e.g. enter e-mail, ...) and enter Google prefeences (just like with a fresh new tab). Skipped it (Hacker's keyboard was already not working - couldn't type in).
Then the desktop arrived. My God, it's absolutely brand new. All my settings and icons disappeared.
Went to Applications - they all seem to survive. But don't work. Almost all of them crash when you start them. Some very simple and built-in apps work though.
The Contacts disappear as well. Just like E-mail.
Remember I started this message with that I was transferring files? Well, they're not visible. Even their new folder is missing. But the storage is used exactly to the size of those files. All 10Gb. I tried to delete its parent folder (say, "/sdcard/Movies"). Free storage barely changed (only for the size of existing files).
Well, it's ruined. My lovely and so customized Tab. Damn.
So the very dumb questions are:
- What's that? Broken filesystem? How came? How to check/fix?
- How to save app settings (that's ALOT, include data for my kids' paid games)?
- Where Touch Wiz and other settings actually stored? I suspect there must be a system database (saw an error from "SQlite" when FBReader crashed).
Well, I could wipe everything, but not sure it would solve the filesystem problem and would take muuuuuuuuch time. And we don't have ICS rolled out for Russia yet, so that would be a very time wasting process.
p.s. Titanium backup doesn't start too. Moreover, everytime I install something it crashes again ;-)
You might try setting up your gmail account, the initial thing that you skipped. I'm just guessing, but perhaps you need the account active to use apps that might be linked to your account on the market.
Also, again, this is just a guess, but if your movies are DRM protected, is it possible you can't access because it thinks you are a different user?
Just some thoughts. Quite possibly useless, but maybe worth a shot. Good luck!
Later,
Jason
Go to settings/ apps and force stop Samsung Media Scanner... Worked on mine a while back, hopefully that will fix the problem for you... Good luck!

Something very similar happened to me when I was trying to watch a movie off of an sd card with the adapter. I ended up having to re-flash a stock image through Odin and re tweak everything (Rom, re-download apps...everything. Sucks that I lost all my progress in games etc. but it made me re-evaluate what apps I really used and needed so now it's running faster and smoother than ever. I even decided against using pershoot's overclocking kernel (for now) as everything feels so fresh and so clean, and it seems unnecessary.

Something got corrupted. It could have been app databases like you suggest. Sounds pretty reasonable. I hate to say it but you may want to hard reset and see if the issue persist. If it does persist after a hard reset then you have a defective device
Do you have a nandroid backup of your setup?
Hi there,
I apologize for my english.
It is not my native language .
But I have a frustrating problem.
My note 3 keeps self deleting files from my 64gb samsung sd card after a minute or reboot when the files created. So ie: I take a picture. It saves it. I close the camera app. Open gallery. File icon is there, click to open it and the file can't open.. Same with spotify, I add new music to my library and close the app and get back to it downloads it again.
Apps that are stored on the sd card, spotify music, pictures, movies, everything that was stored from two weeks ago.
So two weeks ago I had no problems. At all with this phone. Except the proximity sensor that kept the screen off after a call. But I don't mind that.
I can't save music(songs that were downloaded with spotify before the issue are still there, but when I download a new song it deletes after app close, pictures or what so ever.
What did I do before posting?
Okay, I backed up my sd card(only pictures, videos, downloads, etc, efc)
Format it(no quick format, full format) and put the files back. Copied and paste, not cut and paste(incase it wanted to delete it because it were 'new files')
And still the problem was still present. If you have or had this issue, you will understand how frustrating this is.
The only new app I downloaded that might cause this problem is a youtube downloader but I deleted that app, still same problem.
And if it is an app that causes this problem, the only thing that would help is a factory reset.
And if I do a factory reset, I really need to back up my apps. But if I back up my apps, I don't know what app is causing this problem.
Please guys, I have searched on google for this issue, and I really don't know what to do. I lost pictures of my daughters first school day. This is not funny anymore.
I have found a threat with a similar issue on note 2 but that was only with the videos and a sd card format helped for that guy.

Sorry your photos are gone forever....
Your MicroSD entered a state of read only mode....and there is another thread here...look at my post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=54597235&postcount=9
Really? I just got the sd card like a month or 4 ago?
Like the title says, my wife is pretty upset. I got us both new unlocked s8+'s from best buy just prior to our cross country trip with our kids.
No SD card installed.
She took 200+ pictures and today they are gone. Only videos remain in the gallery, in my files, or even using a file explorer.
I called Samsung, waste of my time.
Google drive is the only cloud app being used (for documents), pics aren't there.
Any advice or thoughts? I've seen older posts on forums of this happening on android phones and not of the fixes have worked. (Clear cache, search for and remove .nomedia files)
Thanks,
Dave

Samsung has a junk file cleaner so you can get rid of unnecessary files. Your wife might have accidentally included her photos while getting rid of unnecessary files. You can ask her about this but besides that I don't know why the photos are lost (probably due to hardware error).

I'll ask her but I don't think k she did, it still says it can recover 1.5+gigs of space.
I used one of them file digger apps, I was able to retrieve all the smaller 200kb cached pictures from thumbnails and what not, but from what I've read you need root to recover the full size images...
There are a lot of stories of this happening to people when I search it and all different devices. So I hope it's not hardware. SD card going in and Google photo backup being turned on, just like the data thieves wanted us to do in the first place.....

If internal then she must have done something, if pics dissapear from sdcard its most like corrupt, best is to have that when u take pics it automatically syncs to a cloud service for backup.

Are you going to root? Afaik you can only do that on the exynos version (not usa)
Correct. No root available yet/ever, was just saying root seems like the only way people are getting back full res lost photos.

3 Questions
What gallery app are you using? Did she hide or exclude any folders by accident?
Thirdly, try running a recovery programme. You can get for free on the net. So long as she has taken no further photos or put anything else on hard drive should be able to recover.
Finally check all folders on phone and also check camera app settings to ensure the folder they are saving too is correct.
This issue is not exclusive to the S8 and looking around the internet this is an existing yet unsolved issue on certain Samsung devices. I'll post here to add a bit of extra information.
My mom's Note 4 also had the same exact issue where the pictures just flat out disappeared. (Pictures, videos, screenshots). No traces of it in any folders even with a different file browser. Issue happens again and again with no pattern or known cause. I told her to buy an SD card for it this time so if it did happen again, I have full access to the storage medium. I then set the camera to save to the SD card and let her use it as usual. Guess what, the problem happened again today.
This time I took the SD card, popped it into my PC and ran Recuva recovery. I was able to recover a few intact pictures and videos from it.
Note 4 SM-N910C (Exynos 5 Octa)
Android 6.0.1, Unrooted
No root available for S8 yet so none of the recovery tools work, your photos are really gone, that's so sad.
Suggest keep your Google photos sync on and regular backup of your entire phone with Samsung Smart Switch PC version.
See if this help to recover photos from Samsung Galaxy S8+.
Why do you need root to access recovery programme?

Exactly. I've tried multiple gallery apps, file explorers and android file recovery programs (which all end up requiring root).
I don't know why root is required to access the non-root folders for a deep scan, but they do.
I was hoping there was a way with ADB that I could make a copy on the computer to then scan, but I think it's probably a waste of time now.
And yes, it was internal storage like everyone days.
I'm hesitant to use any of the cloud backup programs because of some the vulnerabilities I don't agree with. We don't even put pictures of our kids on Facebook. Which is the most secure and least likely that I'm "agreeing to allow them to use the pictures for anything", because most programs say that in the TOS.
FOR NOW, we put an sd card in. If this seems to be a software issue, should we reset her phone or reflash the unlocked firmware with odin? I wonder if a specific app could be related to it.
I convinced her to not return the pho e, but now I'm not sure it's worth keeping if it's possible to happen again.

You guys can try a factory reset. I am actually going to observe this phenomenon happen. Also my mom doesn't like loosing her game saves. I told her to copy her pictures and videos frequently to her laptop in case it happens again (and it will happen again).

Try the below app from play store. This can help you setup an easy and automated backup to a local computer or a NAS.

The app can be set to auto backup on connection to the home wifi or when connected to the charger and your home wifi at the same time.

Galaxy S8 photos vanished
Many thanks for this post. I suffered from exactly same problem yesterday. This is the first time ever I had this problem with Samsung. I have been user of Samsung S2, S5 and now S8.
I am extremely disappointed that one of the most expensive mobiles has caused this problem. I am going to contact samsung about it because many important picture files lost.
The only precipitant was that my battery completely drained out yesterday and when I turned it on there was loss of photos last from three days.
This is completely unacceptable service from such an expensive mobile. I am very upset. My camera photos gets saved in SD card and are backed up by samsung cloud as well as in google drive.
Please help me with suggestions to recover the lost data.
Samsung s8 plus issues lossing pictures
Thought samsung is the best of the best in phones software and the rest all in one phone but clearly I was wrong I lost loads of pictures on my samsung s8 I sold yesterday and my samsung s8 plus now doing the same thing to lost 100plus pics to I'm going sell this one it's my contract phone but I don't care I just carry on paying it off but I get better phone then this that I can trust....best ones are Vodafone platinum 7 and Vodafone v8 so far are the best phones money can buy reliable to and trustworthy..... samsung makers are in software they need to do better much more improvements to
Please help me.
My problem was: suddenly my pictures disappeared from the Samsung Gallery App, but they do exist on several folders for ex. DCIM/Camera. Why arent they appearing inside Samsung Gallery? I did nothing different than what I usually do... I am so mad about this! I even did factory reset and I still cant see my pictures on Samsung Gallery
Same issue here. Just moved over from iPhone.
I've noticed that so far the pics affected have been in their own albums. One was hidden and one wasn't. 1 photo remains from the one that wasn't hidden. I think it only remains because I had texted the pic to someone.
Internal storage.
Developer Mode On.
Auto Update Off.
Have connected phone to a PC via USB prior to issue.
Images don't show in the file folders when I browse them from the My Files app, either. They're gone.
The other odd thing is this may have only started after changing this device name in About Phone.
Anyone else have a changed device name?
You guys should sync with Google Photos!
hello.
Im using my note 4 about 3 years.
From a month ago, my pictures started hiding one by one and I noticed that .nomedia files are created in every single folder.
I did an odin flash/ didnt work
Unistalled some apps /dw
Installed media rescan and deleted media storage data and scanned pics.
The pics showed up but reappeared again.
Its frustrating.
Any help pls?

you did something a month ago that caused this, probably a new app, if you are rooted backup your apps with titanium backup and uninstall them one by one to test which one is responsible for this problem
Also install various anti-virus apps from playstore and scan for viruses/malwares

I have bitdefender paid.
When delete the nomedia's, takes some time for it to reappear. So I wont be able to test it by unistalling my whole apps one by one. Is it certainly caused by an app?
Solved!! (I think)
In my case, every time I used to add my sd card, the internal pictures started to hide. Even after deleting every .nomedia file and deleting Media Storage's data, and using Media re.scan, the pictures were shown up, but after a reset or reinserting the sd card, the pictures hid again!
Even unistalling apps, didnt work for me.
So I noticed that its a problem from the sd card!
I had nothing Special in sd, but an Android folder full of files and folders.
Deleted the whole "Android" file which was in sd card, and after that, my pictures are not hiding!!
THAT MEANS THAT SOMETHING **** WAS HIDING MY PICS FROM THE ANDROID FOLDER!
I hope this fixes problems of others!
