Hi, I bought a chinese head unit for my car an it seems to work very well with android 4.1, 6.95" display, A9 dual core cpu, unbranded. There is an app called "bootanimation" (see pic 1), when starting you can select one of 3 different animations (pic2) but I don't now where to find the data files for this app (and did not find ANY information about this app!) - I would like to use another boot animation file. It seems that the device is NOT rooted (tried to active root access in file explorer, but this did not work). App information (pic3) doesn't help - do you have any idea where to find information about this app?
Thx in advance!
Hi,
You can't access system apps or data in a file Explorer without root, as far as I know.
You could ask here if anyone knows a way..... But you may need root to accomplish this,

Good luck!

Also, root it usually needed to manually change boot animations, as they reside in the system partition.

Hi I have A sony ericsson neo V phone and have been reading on moving apps to sd cards as I couldn't do it manually, I have read that I have to root the phone, would like some help on this please, I ve seen a thread but don't know whether it applied to my phone make and model. Please tell me how to carry it out.
I believe you need to root your phone to force apps to SD card unless they have that functionality as an in-app feature. You can search the forums for your specific phone's forum, and find a rooting thread there.

Now that you are rooted there are multiple methods to move an app to your SD card. Many are user friendly apps on the play store (I have used app2sd, seemed to work good). Or you can manually move the files using a file explorer now that you have root privileges.
Alternative method
After Rooting your device you can use foldermount to mount some apps on Sd card
I used link2sd..withit i can deinstall applications or freeze, bcz not used memory if is frozzed...
Hello -
I've got a Boost Mobile LG LS720 (F3), and the phone was rooted with Towelroot, as it is a v7 phone. I was assisted at Android Forums originally; yet, I am trying to get assistance - as I want to start using Terminal Emulator, to unlock the phone's read-only memory status in sdext2. The phone works, but, I cannot get CWMT 6.0.4.8 to work correctly - it always triggers a factory reset; though, root remains. I'm able to use my mp3s from my 32 gB micro SD, but, I can't move apps using Link2SD Plus (which is the only way I can access CWMT 6.0.4.8). I'm not new to bringing root to phones, but, this Jelly Bean phone has given me nothing but trouble - I even soft-bricked it once during v6, and sent it to LG's Ft. Worth repair facility to get v7 installed (stock) I have Busybox installed, SuperSU, and to stop the 'Android Is Upgrading' app optimization at boot, I installed CWM Superuser. I have ES File Manager installed, Root Explorer, and Remount installed, as well. I want to learn about using Terminal Emulator, and taking my Android experience to the next level. I am willing to do whatever it takes to become immersed in Android, and one day, start developing apps. I hope that you folks can assist this 52-year-old, disabled Androidphile in taking things to the next level. Thank you for allowing me to post. LOveBusker

I have rooted s3 that was Running well.
But afterI put service to it the service provider ask me to factory reset the phone.
After I did the phone is running well but when I install apps they appear not to be creating folder on the sd card.
One app gives me error enoent no such file or directory.
Another app say error no save file.
When I looked on the sd card I realized there is no new folder in the name of the app like it was before the reset.
What I have Try so far. ..
Clear app Data
Delete/re install app
Wipe dalvik memory/cache
New wipe/ factory reset.
And I am about to do nandroid reinstall but I was hoping some one could figure tHis one out.
What command can I write, program can I use or thing can do to find the bug?

You've already asked about this in your device section, here

I want to link a game's data to sdcard via adb based on this link
namaewanai(dot)blogspot(dot)com/2014/08/how-to-move-lovelive-school-idol.html
I'm already on step 4
the problem is I couldn't link it, the adb always said "link failed File exists"
I believe this method don't need to repartition because I try to avoid that
is there anything wrong? thank you before

Cannot linking internal data to SDcard
*deleted*
Hello there,
I need some info on how or if it is possible to make use of my full adb restore file or I just throw it away and restart fresh of my device.
Device is allview viper v1 (16Gb) -
NO ROOT and not interested in rooting it.
I believe I made a few versions of good back-ups including at least one good full backup including apks by using UBT (1.3.2 version if I am not mistaking).
My problem: I can't restore the phone by using any of the created ab files by using adb which drives me nuts.
It's worth to mention that in between I upgraded the phone software from 4.2 to 4.4 by using the producer's update images... I did a factory reset with 4.4 and re-installed most of the apps I had. I even copied most of the data from a file-sync backup...
Every time I try to use adb restore I get to the screen to input (now 2 passwords which basically are the same), I get the message "restore starting" and quite fast "restore finished" on the phone screen though while using the full back-up I definitely see that adb is still accessing / reading the file for longer time...
What I tried further: I used abe (android backup extractor by tweaking their .sh script) to create both standard individual .ab-s but also kitkat compatible ones (with abe pack-kk) with no luck in restoring the apps and their data.
It is quite annoying since after converting to .tar and un-tar-ing I can see that the backups seem ok and I can even see the sqlite data and xml settings for the apps but I do not know how to import those to the new OS running on the phone.
I tried this using both USB storage, picture mode, etc., input only the desktop pass and afterwards inputing both of the asked passwords.
So the question is: can I restore the data (about 32Gb including the pics and docs) or should I delete all the "working" files I created and put it on the "learn by error"?
Should I try to downgrade to 4.2. (if it is even possible..) and try the adb restore there?
Cheers and thanks in advance.
Hi there,
I'm sorry but I can't find anything relevant to your question/device.
Please post that in the forum bellow for more answers from the experts:
> Android Development and Hacking > Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting
Good luck
Info about the device is available on the forums here - more or less related to the allview name since that's a re-branded phone - e.g. how to root it, how to flash it, how to recover from a broken state but that is not what I am interested in...
I guess it's more of an Android related question but might be a device issue too.
Nevertheless, I will take your advice and copy / paste the original post in Android Troubleshooting section.
Thanks.
