[Q] How to move apks while using scripts??? - HTC Pico (Explorer)

Guys how to copy apks to one of the system folder while using int2ext script??
While using link2sd I used to copy any apk from sd card and paste that file to \system\app\...............
I tried to copy an apk to that folder(yeah i changed the permissions) but it dissappeared. Learnt that while using int2script it moves apks to some other folder called data. Experimented with it but no avail.

You are doing it right /data folder is for user downloaded apps put it in /system/app. Try again it happens sometimes
Or install titanium backup and select update.zip
Now it will create a zip replace the titanium backup app from it with the one you want and flash it

Delete Backup roms ?

I have some backup roms on my sd card and now I want to delete some of them.
How is the best way to delete them ?
There are Three ways, the backups will be individually stored within date and time named directories on the sd card simply delete each one
1) download file manager app like Astro from market, then navigate to /sdcard/clockworkmod/backups and you should find date names directory, delete
2) download ROM manager app from market, use the manage and restore backups option then delete
3) plug your phone into PC, mount sd card as disc and then navigate to directory as named in 1) and delete

I keep 2-3 backups on my PC, (one is STOCK rom, other two are most recent ones) and delete the files from the backup folders in /sdcard/clockworkmod/backups I do not delete the folder itself. I only keep one backup in phone for emergencies.
PS: Please post future questions in the general section.

[Q] What's on my SD Card?

I wanted to start this thread because I am having trouble, (and I assume other noobs are as well), understanding what's on my SD Card and how to navigate through it.
I've attached what I see when I open my device and check the internal storage.
My main reasoning for trying to understand all that's on my SD Card is because it's important! And because I'm trying to figure out where all my apps are stored. I recently installed the venom custom ROM, and since then have lost the knowledge of where my .apk files are stored. That's really what I'm after trying to find those files. I've searched every folder but still no dice. I used Titanium Pro to backup all my files but there is nothing located in the Titanium folder.
Can anybody help me identify where my .apk files are located?
I also have a few .apk files I wish to install on my phone. From what I've gathered the way to do this is to add them to where the other .apk files are located and then Fix Permissions. If I cannot locate my .apk files is there another file path I could save it to?
Lastly I have these two files I have not recognized before, BUGSENSE and .profig
What are these files?
So if you're downloading the apks off a website they'll be in the downloads folder if you downloaded then through Google play..they won't be on your sd unless you manually backed up them up through titanium

Right okay, so if I choose to back them up onto the SD card then my .apk file paths should appear? Because as you can see now I have no app folders on my phone (sd card) currently.
I've backed up my phone via titanium still nothing in there is an .apk file.
I'm also interested in keeping my phone clean of useless things (another reason for this thread).
As file explorer. Settings allow up to root allow root. Go up from sd card. System/data folder

If you go to titanium backup location on sd card and open it you will find what you looking for. Its pretty easy to restore backup in titanium app itself.....also a true backup should be done in twrp recovery as it backs up everything (file partitions,kernel,radio,apps) it will save a copy (known as a nandriod backup) on your sd card that you can recover if your rom won't boot or you just need to restore .

Make sure you enable writing to the root folder as well. System apps are in system/app.

[Q] Flashing in CWM folder

Just a quick question, does it matter if I put the stuff that I am flashing may it be a rom or just google apps, should it be in the root dir or can I put it inside a folder ? Thanks
Folder on sd ok...
