My I497 tablet is not rooted either. I have Root Exploer installed and it did just what you wanted. Try a different file explorer/manager. Possibly the system folder is just too big for copy and paste. Try smaller sections.

Why are you trying to backup the whole system folder? Try smaller folders inside /system.

No problem here. You are copying and not cutting/moving?

Guys, what is this lazylist folder on sd card? Can it be deleted?
Sent from my LG Optimus One P500 using Tapatalk
Its just cache of icons even if u delete it it will come back..
But I hate the way android impliments apps folder creation directly too the root of sdcard. I think there should b some hack so that apps folders (folders created by apps for cache and stuff) are in one sub folder.. like a symbolic link.
My sdcard is cluttered like hell with all the folders.

Thanks for the info, dude. And, you are really right about folders issue. Very nagging. Even more nagging is the fact, these folders do not go away even with uninstal of app. Have to delete them individually.

I deleted it everytime i turn on or rebooting my phone and nothing happens.

Having lots of folders will not have any impact on the read speed of the sd card but if you have a number of files one the root of the sd card then the read speed of the sd card will be greatly reduced.

(Just realized this thread is several years old)
I think its safe to say that any of the files/folders that wern't there prior to intallation of the app would be safe to delete. Often times after uninstalling an app some files and folders are still there. Usually they are files and folders that werent originally installed with the application such as saved preferences, data, settings, ect. Those files are safe to delete but I think the best rule of thumb is when in doubt, dont delete. You can usually use google to find out which files and folders are associated with which app and which files and folder are important or essential.
Hi, I would like to know what folder apps on both the system and sd card can be found in. This is so that I can can change app permissions.
Thanks!

You can only change permissions of apps in "system/app"!

What permissions? The read write permissions or the AndroidManifest permissions?
U can't change the manifest permissions, and judging by your knowledge, u don't wanna change read write permissions either

For moving apps to System/Apps, you need to be rooted!
If you are, use Root Explorer to copy app from your sdcard and paste them in System/Apps and then change their permission to rw-r--r--

Okay I have the APK but now i need to copy it to the system/app folder. How do I do that? I tried moving it and copying it with Astro File Manager but that didn't work.
Did you try installing the apk?
To move it to system I believe you need a file manager with root access like es file explorer

yes I tried to install it but that failed. I downloaded es file explorer and then enabled and granted root but when I tried to copy or move it to the system/app folder, both failed. The apk seems to can't be moved at all.
Make sure you selected mount file system as writable in root settings in ES File Explorer.

Ok, i have modified my flies.apk using winrar and when i pasted in system/app it was not fine.There were two my files . It should have asked to overwrite...
Then i deleted the old one and copied the new one. Then i rebooted it
Nothing was there. My new modified my files was not there. It was in system/app but not shown in app drawer(it was not hidden). I restored my old one (Thanks to titanium backup) but now it is not shown in system/app.
Well i want to know is there a problem in modified apk?
I have also signed it
I have used this method
Opened my files with winrar
Changed things
Closed winrar
Signed it
Is this correct?

I didn't mean mounting /system R/W
I mean your modded apk file permission, use an app like Xplore or Root Explorer to give it 644 permission in order to see it in the app drawer.
Or just install it as user app and use Titanium Backup to convert it to system app.
But how do i do with titanium backup as its not installed
In titanium backup old my files is shown not new one
