So, who else is having this problem? Loads of weird files are being generated in the Download folder.
Even after I delete them they reappear. Somebody knows why this is happening and how to fix this?
Thanks in advance.
Incomplete download?
Also happens for me, not just on the op6, also on the note8. I think chrome generates this files.
i had weird files all over my internal storage...also, weird folders...i just deleted them all and everything still works

Make sure your browser has storage permission allowed as that is needed to write the download to storage or you will get a failed download.
Very late reply but go to chrome>settings>downloads>
Uncheckd/ untick "download articles over WiFi"
Off course after doing this articles on chrome will not be available offline
I am having this problem as well. Its only happening when i updated to android 10. And i have reset phone and not given chrome storage permission and still it is able to create those files in my storage?. Anyone know what's happening?

Hello everyone. Although n00bs aren't allowed here, I do want to ask you a question that might be very n00bish. And maybe a little inappropriate. Or asked in the wrong section of this forum.
But here it goes: I want to try and edit a savegame for a game on my HTC Hero (baseball superstar 2010). So, first I tried to locate where all the files for this game could be installed on my phone. I did not succeed.
But with help from this forum, I found out that I might find the files by using Astro File Manager. I can use this app to click on the .apk from the game, that I have on my sdcard, and then choose the option 'browse file'. There, I find a lot of files! So, the first problem is solved.
The second problem is, that I cannot edit any of the files I then find. And I cannot find a file that has the datestamp of today, or yesterday, when I last played the game. Shouldn't there be a very recent file with the saved game data in it somewhere?
For me, it would be a lot easier if I could browse the apk on my desktop with a simple explorer. But if I hook up my sd-card to my pc, I cannot open the .apk. How can I accomplish this?
I hope I gave a decent description of my problems, and hopefully anyone can help me with A) finding out which file to edit B) how to open or edit this file and C) what to edit!
Thank you all in advance for your time and patience.
Use 7zip to open/extract the .apk file. You can use winrar too, but I like 7zip better. I'll try to find a link in a minute, or you can always google it if I don't post back quick enough for you.
Your questions are reeallly noobish ;-P
Apk files store libraries and other static files of your applications - there you could find images, texts, code, etc., but not runtime data like savegames. Look into /data/{package-name}/ - you could find package name in many places, I think it's in Settings -> Manage applications, but I'm not sure.
Very noobish yes
I have done something in the meanwhile, and that is: buy the real deal from the market. I no longer seem to have the .apk, but that should be no problem. Now the real game is officially installed onto my phone.
But ... where? I have tried looking in /data with my file managers, but they say that the folder is empty! So... where are my apps installed then? They must be on my phone somewhere. Do I have to root my phone in order to see anything in the /data/folder?

I'm not sure, but I think so. This directory is read-protected, so apps can't steal data of other apps. And I've mistaken: it's /data/app/{package-name}.
Hmmm. Do you know a good way to do that? I have a HTC Hero with the 2.1-update1 firmware (so my phone tells me!).

I think I'm correct in saying yes. I use RootExplorer and can see my apks in data/app, but if I use AndExplorer I can't.

Hi There,
I've opened another thread to stop the clutter, but: I have installed Root Explorer and used (I thought) Universal Androot to root my mobile phone. It did install Superuser, but when I open Root Explorer, I don't get a prompt to put it on the superuser list... so nothing seems to work. Do you know what I should do, and how I can do that?

You might be best searching your phones forum for a solution unless someone can offer you help here.
Iirc, savedata and settings would be in /data/data/com.gamevil.bs2010/
probably in a folder named "files".
start by looking in there.
other apps would be in /data/data/[packagename]
Hello, I didn't know where to post this so I thought here would be best, so I can be pointed to the right place.
in one of my camera folders, I've had around 12,000 pictures "had 30,000 before deleting".. I decided it's time to move it to my PC and sort them out.. I have tried to copy them before when they were 30,000 but I've never been able to do that (it just doesn't work)
when I tried to copy them this time through connecting my Note 3 Rooted, I accidentally "cut" the folder and pasted it my desktop in PC..
the folder I have copied was Empty..
when I checked back on my android there was no trace of the folder.. and my Gallery no more shows the folder.
I tried to undo the process but it also failed.
I don't know where are the files exactly?
I've used DiskDigger to recover the files.. but I couldn't see them anywhere.
I've used ES file Explorer to unhidden the files (if they were hidden) but to no avail.
I hope someone, anyone, would know what I can do to recover the pictures or at least know what exactly happened
thank you!
anyone? where should I post this at least...
is this an issue that is not known?
Hi
Thanks for writing to us at XDA Assist. Have you written to the storage at all since these files went missing?

nope I haven't, I immediately did a recovery attempt..
the files are just not there... not a single one lol
so they must be "not deleted" somehow, somewhere.. they're there..

The only thing you can do is continue to try different data recovery methods and hope that one of them works. Sorry, that's about all the advice I can give you.

Hi, I am having a issue of which some files are being created even after I delete them. For example I have a file called "Fabolous ft. Jeremih - Its My Time.mp3". Which is fine, then I have a file called "Fabolous ft. Jeremih - ItG��s My Time.mp3". I have deleted this file with the weird name many times and it always recreates after a few seconds. There are also a few more files doing the something. Does anyone know is causing this? Please help

Is it only happening for media files? If so, it may just be your media player creating a thumbnail cache, try disabling all mediaplayers and deleting.

Yea seems to be media files. When I delete through TWRP recovery, the files don't duplicate upon deleting. Weird
Is this on a SD card or internal? Not sure if this is your issue, but I've heard of SD cards failing or wearing out and becoming read only. End of life on write cycles. Maybe TWRP rewrites over the deleted file which causes permanent deletion. Not quite sure on that.
Also, try to copy your important files off the card and re-format. Then paste your files back. Worth a shot.
Let us know what you find out. I'm curious about this.
Hi there! I just made an account of this app but I have one problem or maybe I can't find the option. So that I'm here to ask help if someone knows.
I can download the file to hear it offline mode but once I try to find the mp3 I don't find anything. The folders cache and data are empty :S
Thanks!
Anyone? I wanted to edit one file, and I need to know before buy it.

Hey, thank you. I already lost the audios, but I will keep in for the future!
hello
Hello! I've managed to get the .stb files. How on earth does one open these? I'm guessing there must be some sort of encryption?
I'm trying the same thing here but I can't find the files when I look in the storytel folder, it's empty. Did you guys do anything other than just looking up the files in the files manager system?

Thanks

Hi. Did you find any solution for converting .stb files to .mp3
Hi. Bumping. Is there a way to convert Storytel books to mp3 or any other non DRM audio codec?
Also, does anybody know where are these files stored on iOS (jailbroken)?
It seems .stb files are DRM encrypted and it could be impossible.
The .stb files are encrypted by DES/ECB/PKCS5Padding method. (From source) Full decryption done in client side. Decryption is possible. Any good reverse engineer can do the job.

The thread is 2 years old. Do you mean you are a so called "good engineer" that you have done it or it is legal. :laugh:
Not able to find the storytel app data location
I am still not able to find the location. The app data folder under the Android folder has empty folders, no data. I have download 22 books (around 2.3GB) Internal memory has been used but not able to find the Storytel app data. Please help someone.
still no working premium modded version for this application without an account?
Interested
Maybe the easiest solution is to use some kind of ripper?
It is a very common problem among all the audiobooks that you cannot download them with the help of an MP3. You just need the right audiobook and right MP3 that will match with it. I would recommend you see on selfpublishedwhiz.com more information about the audiobooks. How much does it cost to create one, and maybe you will find there the answer at your question.
Hello, I have been trying to upload and attach screen shots to a post but I always get upload file failed. The files are only jpeg files. I have tried to make the smaller and even make them pdf's and still no luck. I have tired to use Tapatalk, XDA labs and my computer with no luck, any ideas?
When you try to post a new thread, click the button 'Manage Attachments', select files from your computer, and then click 'Upload'.
Then click 'Attachments' icon above your message body to select jpeg files one by one into your thread.
Does not work, all I keep getting is upload failed.

If it doesn't work anywhere (both website and mobile apps) maybe it's an issue related to your account...
Pinging @the_scotsman in case he could help.
Hmm....the account looks ok.
Can you try creating a new blank text file and see if you can upload that. There may be some weird issue with the files you're trying to upload.
A simple text file should have no issues, so that will be a good test.
Just tried a text file I get a message saying bad request upload of file failed.
Is it happening in any thread? Have you tried attaching to this thread?
If so, this is beyond anything I can think of.
@MikeChannon Seen this before? I can attach ok, so attachment system is working fine.

Not seen this before, for small files anyway. Browser/Router/Add On issue maybe but other than clearing Browser cache, trying another browser, re-booting router, disabling add-ons I don't know what to suggest.
