I was having a problem with my SD Card showing duplicated (and triplicated) content when connected via USB, then I read that I could clean the Media Storage, and that it would look for the files again.
I did it, and now all image files are gone, from the entire SD Card and Internal Storage. Anything with file extensions as .gif, .jpg and .png are gone.
Also, almost all movie files are also gone, and interestingly, most of them were MKV files, that aren't natively readable. Flv files were intact, but mp4 are gone.
MP3 files are intact too, so no music was lost.
I waited for the media storage to get everything done, and from the 32MB before the clean, it's now 16MB. I used Media Scanner to force it search more, but with no luck, it finishes and doesn't change anything.
I'm not all that interested to recover it, after all, I had copies for most of the content on my PC, and the only pictures that will be a pain to recover will be the ones I got with the browser (Maybe I can even look at the history to find them, I'll try it later.).
Even so, is there any way to recover it? Why does it happen?
In case someone could help me, my Xoom is rooted, and Stock ICS 4.0.4, so I think I can do anything asked. Thanks.
