I just got an android phone a Xolo Q800 its an Indian brand and it looked pretty good but I have encountered a crapload of issues
1. I put in a 4gb class 4 memory card in and 2 days later I tried to capture a pic and nothing happened then i try to copy/cut paste something in my memory card from file explorer and i just get "No permission to cut 'imgxx'" or "No permission to copy 'video223'" (this are just examples). So i just decide to put my other 4gb class 4 memory card in and 2 days later same issue im trying to copy paste some images from one place to another and it just says "No permission..." has anyone else encountered this issue if so help and p.s. i dont know crap about code because i did get a link which said to add something to manifest.xml but could find it. Also tried putting those memory cards in a phone and a camera and both couldnt save any images/videos the camera just said "cannot use memory card" other crappy phone said "error cannot save" please help.
I cannot also copy paste items from that memory card to my pc and reformat it whats happening?
 
I found the issue which might be causing this, unfortunately cant post pics/link but in both the memory cards in the DCIM folder there is a thumbnail and ANDRO100 folder in 1 memory card the .thumbnail folder is 56.8GB and if i try deleting the files it gives me the error "The file name you specified is not valid or too long" and in the other card both .thumbnail and ANDRO100 come to a total of 115 gb and note this is a 4gb mem card which shows 900 mb free in properties have you ever seen this if so help and thanks
