[Q] deleted internal memory (sdcard0) - Sony Xperia L

Hi there!Yesterday I had nothing better to do than destroying my phone
Accidentally I deleted all the files from internal memory (sdcard0),not SD card (sdcard1).Faced a problem with missing obb file but I created a new one.But I realised that winamp pro can't play music (other music players do)Some other games are ForceClosing too..I tried to fix the prob by flashing ftfs but the files never came back...
Afraid that there will be problems with other apps too.I tried EaseUS,Wondershare Dr.Fone for Android and Pandora recovery,but none can see sdcard0...Is there any way to restore at its former state?
I'm embarrassed for my stupidity,and sorry for my English...

I don't get it at all. Like I create by my self the obb folder and put the game data after that and all games work perfect.
Are you sure you have make that folder right and copy files right and they're there ? It has to work as it is working for me.

After some installs and uninstalls of winamp it worked,finally:victory:
I did the same thing you did (obb file),and the games are running flawlessly.
I must admitt that when I made this thread I was in panic and I had no patience to wait and see...I was afraid that what I deleted were system files:silly:But I realised that internal memory is just like sd card.All the needeed files are creating with a fresh rom installation...
Sorry for my bad English...

[Q] How to get the save file of gameloft games

i need to find the save files of my game loft games because i need to change my ROM. I've read some forums and it says that i need to backup the files using titanium backup and the save file is on the SD card gameloft folder. I've previously backed up the folder and changed my rom and put the files again i just have to start over again. backing up doesnt help me.
btw i gotta android phone

[Q] What are the files inside .android_secure?

i seem to have over 1 GB of wasted space in that folder .android_secure
any 1 got a clue if those are safe to delete?
I've never found that deleting anything on my SD card caused major problems for the phone, including .android_secure. Of course, that folder has never been 1 GB in size for me, either, so I suppose your results may vary. Really, though, all the system stuff is in the protected internal storage, so I doubt you'll do much worse than delete media files or whatever apps you've moved to the SD card, if that. I say give it a shot and see what happens. Of course, I take no responsibility for anything that does go wrong if you do. >.>
apparently those are Apps settings or something along the lines
i flashed SuperAOS and during the wiping process it showed it was deleting .android_secure
App2sd
This is where the operating system stores a portion of the apps. Anytime you install a new app and choose to install it to the SD card, it puts a large portion of the app into this folder. Deleting the contents would delete your apps.
If you move an app to the SD card via the official (2.2+) method, this is where (most of it) goes.
Hi,
I recently flashed a new ROM and had to do a full wipe including factory reset. I copied some apps to SD, and indeed I see that the .android_secure folder has a lot in it, taking up space. I installed all apps again from market on the new ROM install, and they all say they can be copied to SD again, so they don't take information from the previously installed bits on the SD card. Is it safe to delete everything in this folder?
EDIT: I have an HTC Hero, but only noticed when I posted this that this is a Samsung Nexus S thread. I'm guessing that this is not that big a deal?

sorry to revive this thread after so long, but does this folder also store the app data? In other words, for games like plants vs zombies or angry birds etc, if I copy the corresponding files over to my new phone (after installing PVZ/AB on the new phone of course), does it also copy over my progress?
(recently swapped my EVO 4G to EVO 3D and trying to figure out how to copy the game progress over - esp for PVZ)

[Q] Wipe SD card or just delete folders back to stock?

Hi everyone,
I'm looking to remove some of my old excess folders off my SD Card and I was wondering if anyone knew what the stock folders are I should be keeping or if it's ok to wipe the SD card? Wasn't really sure if it was ok or not to do so and thought I should ask..
Thanks!
You can wipe the SD-card within android. Its safe and wont make the card unusable or anything like that.
Just remember to save the stuff you want to keep before formatting it
Thanks for the info. I wasn't so sure as I came from a HTC Desire and ended up using ROM's that dumped half the system onto the SD card so was a bit wary with that.. :S

I think any apps that is installed to sd will be deleted so make sure none are.
How?
How can I wipe the card?
I often tried some apps, and now I installed CM so it would be great to have an "empty" SD.
Is there any tool which logs all folders/files that have been created when an app has been installed?

Setting/storage and you should see it there.

And what about a tool?

Think adb can do that but why would you need to know that?
i would make a back up of your sdcard to your pc before doing anything
Backup not the best solution...
especially when you "on the road". Sometimes when I'm outside (waiting for the bus or so) I've time to look around in the play store. Screenshots are nice, but it's always better when you try an app on your own.
But once installed you see "oh that one is crap" you want to uninstall it, but the folders that has been created are still there. So it would be nice if there would be a app that watches for the changings during installation and you are able to delete all the folders and files of the crappy app.
If you delete data before uninstalling the app everything should disappear.
Actually, I think its only if you uninstall through play store the data is kept.
TitaniumBackup will remove all of it when using it to uninstall stuff.

grand theft auto save HELP

Ok, so I have both gtas for my note 10.1, thing is, i am going to change rom but want to keep my saved games, can I do this for BOTH grand theft autos? I went into my android/data folder and backed up the data files onto my ext sd but still, the save game is my concern, please advise

Obviously you're rooted if your changing roms. Move the files to sd or pc(renamed)

[Q] Backup Google All Access with the move to SD hack?

For those not familiar with the hack it is possible to store synced music on the external SD using a simple link. If you have the full version of Root Explorer (may be possible with other file managers, but I've never tried) you can create a folder "music" on ExtSD then create a link to that folder. Deleting the music folder in /data/data/com.google.play.music (or whatever your path happens to be) and placing the link in that same folder effectively tricks the app into downloading all music to the music folder on ExtSD. The database and artwork remains on the internal SD.
My question is has anyone tried backing up the app using Titanium Backup and then restoring it after flashing a new ROM? In theory all you'd have to do is create the link first, restore the app and all your music is back. I've never tried though and I really don't want to re-download 30GB of music.
Thanks!
Well since no one answered I went ahead and bit the bullet. Success! It does work, though I got the order wrong in the original post. First restore Play Music + App Data, then create the link to the music folder on your external SD. Worked like a charm! :laugh:
