don't worry this has actually been common with a lot of the x2. virtually you have two option,
1.) use your phone normally eventually the files will return whether that take hours, days or weeks (bad option)
2.) try changing the registry to match this [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Power\State\Suspend]
"shc1:"=dword:00000000

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Power\State\Resuming]
"shc1:"=dword:00000000 (good option)
3.) just install the cab found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...=669157&page=2 at the bottom of the page.
4.) if all three doesn't work, well.... at least you tried make sure you back up your device regularly

These are fixes so that it won't happen again ... when it happened to me, I re-installed a program (in my case it was Garmin XT) and the files reappeared ... I think that doing that fixed the file headers on the card ... so if you have something that you already installed on the card, do it again and see if the files reappear ...

Exactly my case!

After memory card corruption I got everything back by installing an app....

the cab didn't work even after a soft restart? well you can always try option one and just wait and hope the files come back. the first time this happened to me after two days my stuff just re-appeared and i didn't do anything, so it is possible

Thanks doministry.

Installed it but then had a problem with saving ANY pic or video. SO I deleted the DCIM folder on the MEM card and now everything is ok.

Thinking about adding the accelerometer cab but am afraid because some people reported their icons getting messed up. . .
