Lenovo P780 + Supera Camera App stopped storing pictures to external SD Card

[adityavpratap]

Hi,

I am new to this forum. I had recently purchased Lenovo P780 mobile. Great mobile - gives me 40+ hours of talk time.

However after using it for some time now, I found that the default camera App that comes along with it, called Super Camera, has all of a sudden, stopped storing the pictures to the external SD Card. Sometimes it takes pictures, but when I try to access them using the Super Gallery App, I can only see a blank thumbnail. Sometimes even the blank thumbnails are missing. Sometimes when I start the Super Camera App I get the message "Please enter the external SD card".

If I try to browse the DCIM folder (where the Super Camera App is supposed to store the pictures) in the external SD card, the files are not there.

Strangely, a few of the pictures I had taken earlier and which were stored in the same SD card, using the same app, are visible. Only those pictures that I had taken before 10th Sep. 2013 are visible. Beside there is a file in the DCIM folder named contiuous_2013910*** (without any extension) which refuses to get deleted or renamed.

Since the internal storage is a paltry 4 GB, I need to be able to write to the external SD card. Any suggestions?

Thanking in advance,

V. Aditya Pratap

Welcome to Android Central!

First of all, I assume you've checked the Camera's Settings to make sure it is still set to save pictures to the external SD card, correct?

You might be having a problem with your SD card. Try using a different SD card and see if the same problem occurs.

Ok, I'll try a new SD Card.

If the new SD card works, then take out the old one, plug it into a desktop or laptop, and copy over the intact photos and files to your computer as soon as possible, because the problems you're having might be a warning sign that the card is about to fail.
