What is taking up my Android phone storage?
It's mostly a combination of files downloaded by apps and their intermediate data.Take WhatsApp for example. It has a folder in internal storage called WhatsApp>Databases. There are many database files which keep track of the message history. Over time it piles up a lot. One solution is to backup the chats to Google Drive and delete all database files except the most recent one.Then there are apps like Facebook and Instagram which download posts, photos and keep it in storage. It enables us to look at posts previously seen without Internet connection but this again starts piling up over time. So go to Settings>Apps and delete all data of the particular app. It will be as though the app is installed for the first time. Just login again and you are good to go.Finally move junk photos and videos of WhatsApp to SD card. That is the single biggest occupier of internal memory.
I accidentally deleted data from media storage in my Android phone. Now my media app does not show any files. How do I fix this problem?
Here’s an updated answer for modern devices (2016) if you’re trying to get back all your Sounds. Simply just restart your phone, and presto, all ringtones are back. It’s a matter of the Android OS restoring the metadata during the restart. That’s all! Enjoy

How do I unhide media content in Android phone media apps which got hidden accidentally because of copying .nomedia file to the main SD card (read description)?
If you have "ES File Explorer" installed in your mobile (install it if you have not), it has an option to show hidden files. After that you can access all the hidden folders and files on your mobile.Here are some screenshots to help you with.After opening the app you will get this screen after clicking on a blue icon in left upper corner.Now click on "Tools" and scroll down to get this.Simply turn on "Show hidden files", and after that all hidden files will be in your control.By doing so, your .nomedia file will be visible. Hope this helps.
