Can someone please help me out and tell me if I sho Iuld keep those or ifi can delete them.
Thanks in advance and have a good night

"Cassies XLR I9205 V2 DEOD EDITION THUNDERBOLTED" should be a flashable rom (The file contains a android operating system that you can flash to the phone) I suppose that this rom is actually installed. TWRP is a "custom recovery" which is an tool installed on the phone to install roms or perform backups. The TWRP folder has probably 6GB as there are already backups in it. If you don't need the backups it should be safe to delete the TWRP folder or just delete the contained backups.

Yup thats a rom you can delete it if u are done for flashing that rom

Dont post ques in dev section...
And you just need to do a clean install of the same rom...
I'm sorry I posted it by mistake.
But thnx for ur reply.
And let me know if i can delete my post.
And does clean install mean i have to delete dalvik cache, format system and clean data from recovery mode then fresh install the rom ??
Or just install rom once again without wiping anything ?

Is there a way to flash the “dictionary” in? Also when I screen shot it appears as if it captures the picture but never shows up in my files. IDK if this has anything to do with but when I reboot it says that all screen shots will be move to SD card to free up space. I’ve went through all my files I’m sure it’s not there even did a search. I wiped the caches and user data and reloaded the rom a few times already... Any help would be greatly appreciated… Some guy posted a link for a LatinIME.apk but when I flash that it fails in regards to the fix for the dictionary..

Your not supposed to flash the apk, you just replace the LatinIME.apk in the systems folder with the one he provided.
Hope this helped!

External to Internal sd swap

MUST BE ROOTED
Updated 8/17/13
This is for everyone that wants more internal memory for apps and games (that's if you have a large ext-sd like 32gb or 64 gb). I have noticed alot of people need the app to sd feature but can't use that anymore because google seems to think we don't need it LOL. Please follow all instructions.
EDIT: I found a video that will show you how to swap your apps and games to sd and it's very simple. You will be able to get your internal space back and play games and use apps stored on extsd.
EDIT 2: trazfer says that the foldermount app isn't very user friendly and he recomends using GL to SD (root) from the play store here is the link https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.slf.ListglApp
I'm leaving the YouTube video below for people to have two options which ever one works out best for that person.
Thanks to trazfer for the report :thumbup:

I have noticed alot of people need the app to sd feature but can't use that anymore because google seems to think we don't need it LOL. Here's what I did! I went here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1933849 and downloaded this app to get init.d support (must have init.d support). Install busybox by Stericson from the play store and run busybox let the app load after smart install is loaded choose install and then normal install (do not choose smart install) then reboot. If you have the Uni-init v1.0.apk downloaded from the first link I posted just install it run the app choose activate when finished choose verify it should say success then just reboot. Go to second link below and install the Root External 2 Internal SD app and run it. Please follow all the instructions on play store for that app. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=eu.codlab.int2ext Please follow all instructions. After doing all of the above you can use your external sd as main storage. Enjoy

Now that we have CWM and a functional ROM can we move apps to the sd card
idk im wondering if this is possible ?
GL to SD
Some apps do work where you can transfer to sd card but some apps you can't, it's pretty cool for big games like asphalt
is this applicable in SM-T210? coz mine says my device doesnt support app2sd.
Moving app to SD functionality is built into my GTab 8.0

I have the same issue issue as this gentleman, my SM-210R is not supported by app2sd. Is there any other way to transfer the apps on a rooted device?
thanks

Sir. i have found a way to fix this issue that doesn't let us move apps to SD. i have found this Foldermount application which puts the Data or Obb files or anyfile in my Internal Storage into my SD Card Storage. if you still need a fix to this issue i may upload it here.

Please do, this would help the community.
Foldermount is in the play store.
But if you need to mount more than 3 folders, you will have to pay
Still a great app. (I paid for the app)

we can`t know where you putted your apks,the default folder must be downloads,connect phone at pc and search them..
If you want to send apk of installed app, maybe you've to search in /system/app but i've never tried if it works

Here's a better way:
Use an app like "App Backup & Restore" from the Playstore. It will copy the apks to a folder on your SD card. You can then use a File Explorer to send those apks via Bluetooth. :good:
Try finding it in CM file manager.
I hope you find it!

All your app's installed and linked using Link2SD are saved into your second partition you created as fake internal ram. This second partition is either EXT2 or EXT3, Linux format.
Thank all for replying :thumbup:

PRoblem with lost photos/videos on GT2-P5100, 4.0.3.

Hi all.
Like in topic, I've got GAlaxy Tab 2 with 4.0.3. I didn't make backup before updating him to 4.1.2 and i lost a lot of photos and videos (really important files for me). Now tablet is clean, I didnt make any new images. Is there a chance to get them back? If someone can help me with this
I'll be really happy.
I tried Dr. Fone for Android, but this GT2 has no mass storage mode option and is not visible to this software. There is no problem to root tablet to make this option visible.
Plz tell me what should I install and how to do it.
Thx in advance.
There are chances that your data in internal memory is not deleted....
Try this..
Open root browser..
Go to /storage/sdcard0
You might find your past data there.....
And imp. Step
Hit thanks button if it works
