[Q] obb folder in root - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

The obb folder is in the root of my internal storage, not in the Android folder as it was on my Nexus 4. Is this the new location for it on 4.4?

Thanks.

Mine is in the Android folder in Internal memory on both, but it's empty on the N4.

Mine is in the android folder and in the root of internal. Do I guess it's normal.

Trying to access my system folder to remove some software but the folder is not showing up in root explorers. Neither my nexus nor s3. Does this have to do with the distasteful /0 everyone hates? Or was there an error on my part? Thanks much

In 4.4.2, moving apps to SD is all buggered up. I just went out and got a 32gb card thinking I could move my 1+GB games to it.

Are you talking about for FM? I never had to enter a path. Just do the apps analyzer and then create the pairs and let FM do all of it automatically. If this isn't what you are asking then please elaborate.

I figured it out. I thought you had to make the paths manually. Didn't even notice the app analyzer. Purchased the premium version so I can move all my games! Thanks, man!

[Q] Preparing SD Card

I was wondering if anyone has this issue. I have a AT&T Galaxy Note II. On my extSdCard I deleted a bunch of files that I no longer needed. But when I reboot the it displays a message, "Preparing SD Card", and the files I deleted are still there. Any suggestions?
Some files and folders are used by android itself and they are again generated if they are not present
