Missing Tones #55

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Create new alarm
2. Tap TONE
3. See that the "Internal" tab is empty except for "Default"

Note:  Can also be seen by going into Default Alarm Settings and trying to 
choose a default tone.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I'd like to see my alarm sounds in the INTERNAL tab, like they were before this 
last update.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Evo 4G

Please provide any additional information below.
It shows all my songs, but not alarms or alerts.  I can see them in 
/system/media/audio/... , they just are not available in this app.  Other clock 
apps see them fine.  They used to show up and were available in the last 
version of this app.

This application simply lists the information that is in your phone's media 
library.  It has no control over what gets put in the library. Generally, this 
library is managed by some background process that comes with the phone.  In 
particular, the internal sounds should be indexed in the INTERNAL_CONTENT_URI 
(http://developer.android.com/reference/android/provider/MediaStore.Audio.Albums
.html#INTERNAL_CONTENT_URI).

The fact that these items are not showing up probably means that your media 
library was in some way corrupted during your operating system update.  I 
believe you can clear the media cache by going into the application manager, 
finding the 'Media storage' application and clearing the application data.  
This should trigger a rebuild of the media library after your next reboot, but 
I've never actually tried this before, though...

Excellent!  Thank you for the info.  I can testify it DID work!  I guess Sense 
must be getting it's alarms list some other way.  Took a few minutes for the 
media library to rebuild, but once it did, all the alarms and sound effects 
were available on the INTERNAL tab once again.

Thank you for excellent support!  And apologies for blaming the Klock for 
something that wasn't it's fault!  :)
