[Q] /cache dir - Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini

Using root explorer I see my /cache directory contains a lot of .apk files (like "Downloadfile-x.apk where x is from 1 to 12) and some .jpg (corr.) files.
What kind of reposotory is it? Can I remove theese files? Is it safe?

after a backup I removed all files.
No problem

[SOLVED] Filesystem - problem with /system/bin - nested bin folders (SE LwW)

Hello everybody,
I have a "problem" with /system/bin/ and bin folders (however, the phone works just fine, hence those quotation marks :angel.
Let's stick with /system/bin/: Inside I have the files that should be there, but there is also another bin folder with exactly the same files inside and another bin folder inside ... and so on, about 20 times/levels(?) nested.
Not sure what it is ... some hardlink problem?
The same is in /bin/ folder.
ES File Explorer says that there are about 7000 files/ 230 MB in the first nested bin subfolder.
I tried the following:
1. Delete the nested bin folders from ES File Explorer (root access granted) - unsuccessful ("can't delete ...")
2. From CWM: format /system/ + Factory reset + wipe + ROM reflash
3. Search the forum for this issue - maybe I can't search properly, but found nothing ... sorry
As I said, the phone works fine. But I think that it is not good to have such a mess inside the system folders.
I didn't try complete reflash (ftf file) ... I'm trying to avoid doing everything from scratch .
Can you help me, please?
Thanks a lot,
J.

Update: It's a chain of symlinks. The depth of the chain is 40 (counted in DroidExplorer).
What else didn't work:
mount /system in TWRP, then starting file editor, deleting bin (even with chmod)
All attempts to delete the symlink via PC file managers (e.g. Droid Commander)
Solution {rooted phone):
It was a symlink in system/bin pointing to self,
1. Install Android Terminal Emulator (free at Google Play)
2. Start it
3. Then
Code:
# su
(allow root access)
Code:
# mount -o remount, rw /system
# cd /system/bin
# rm bin
That's it

[Q] Editing bin and xbin files

can any one tell how to edit binary files present in system and also xbin files.
is their any way to edit .ko and .so files.

root cannot read from /storage/sdcardn/; su error: could not open file

Trying to copy files from /storage/sdcard to the /system partition. Landvo L200 running Android 4.4. Rooted. Kitkat SD fix in place (in platform.xml, the media_rw-group is added to WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE). This problem is about _reading_ from SD rather than writing to it.
Using adb, I can do su and become root. As root, I can remount /system as rw and rename files on it. But when I go to /storage/sdcard0/ or /storage/sdcard1/, I cannot see any of the files there. When I drop back to the regular user (so not root), I can see the files on both the /storage/sdcardn/.
Using Total Commander, exactly the same seems to happen, because I can rename files on /system (TC gets root and automatically remounts in rw), but I cannot copy a file from one of the sdcards to /system/<whatever dir>. I get as error message: su error: could not open source file. Apparently this was reported before, without resolution: http://www.ghisler.ch/board/viewtopic.php?t=38910&view=next
Anyone knows a workaround to this?
{EDIT} ES file explorer _is_ capable of copying from /storage/sdcard to the /system partition. How do they do it?

unable to mount the Internal Storage, system, cache and data.

hello'
1- LG L3 stack on logo even after recovery.
I managed to install TWRP through SRKTOLLS2.1.
When I try to install a ROM ZIP file I'm having post:
unable to mount the Internal Storage, system, cache and data.
ADB interface device I manage to see the folders and system files.
*/ SDCARD is empty and there is no file.
/BOOT is empty and there is no file
/cache & /data folders contain folders in the name of lost + found,
/dev contains several directories,
/etc contains files: fstab, mtab, recovery.fstab and to more,
and the other system folders'
I can explorer them via TWRP file manager a and see the contents of folders, copy files or move files.
TNX :good:
