Z2 Deletes SD Card Content after Reboot HELP

Truster1 — Fri, 12 Jun 2015 20:44:20 GMT

Hi I recently updated my xperia z2 phone from 4.4.2 KK to 5.0.2 (23.1.A.1.28) first did the installation without wiping the data but after that i made factory reset both from phone and from Recovery deleting all user data . Before that (i don`t know if that is with the problem) i installed Signature verification allways true patch from Lucky Patcher and after that removed it . Everything is perfect with the phone except the strange issue that happens when i restart or turn off and then turn it on again.
When i do it- first this happens -(the attached image) - it shows all the apps that i moved to the sd card like that with red circle with sd card symbol in the upper right corner and no app icons and after couple of seconds it loads them somethimes, all of them - but somethimes it shows only those which are on internal memory and after a restart it loads them all without a problem but it deletes all the data on the sd card except the app data ( of those which i moved to the sd card with the lolipop function and with Folder Mount). All the pictures, movies, music, e-books and more are deleted but the app data is not ... and the phone is doing that sometimes not all the time. When the Picures, music and so on are deleted i`m putting them back on the sd card again and couple of restarts there is no problem loading the apps or deleting the data on the sd card ... but after that it happens again and deletes my information ... but only pictures books music movies .. . I`m using TDK 32 GB micro sd Fat 32 formated - i tried ntfs but the z2 doesn`t recognises it .. the sd card is tested with H2Testw and its ok and i didnt had any problems, when i was using 4.4.2 KitKat .
Thanks in advance for the help )

Thank you very much for those posts alexdon but my biggest concern was why it deletes my Pictures after a restart - why the system have the rights to do it without my permission and can i do anything about it? Thanks ))

You can check if the same occurs in safe mode:

Maybe you have an antivirus or task killer acting up. Are the pictures stored on external SD?

alexdon yes they are stored on the external 32 GB micro sd card and the strange fact is not all the information on it is deleted - only music pictures e books and the app files remain and i dont have antivirus or task killer only Foldermount .. i can`t figure it out )

Have you checked safe mode? I wonder if you have bought the music,pictures etc.

I tried it but the strange thing is that it not happens everytime to delete the pictures and music - it just happens sometimes - very strange could it be a SD card bug or something - i never had any problems with the Micro sd card on KItKat .. )

Can you try to reformat your microSD? I also thought that it might be related to the DRM protection of original bought music.

Yes i treid to format it but this DRM protection if it was like that it was going to delete them all the time but it is doing it sometimes -- an issue without a fix ..

Maybe @Rickard can take a look.

This sounds like the same issue that's discussed in this thread and like the user in that thread, it sounds like you have rooted your phone and changed some system files as FolderMount is an app for that which requires root and you say you have a recovery.

If your SD card is not damaged or fake, the only thing i can think of is that this is related to the modifications on the phones software and i'm afraid i don't know how you could solve that. I would recommend that you try to restore our original firmware by doing a repair using PC Companion or our flashtool on developer.sonymobile.com if your bootloader is unlocked.
