Looked on the SD card but couldn't find it there.
I don't remember off the top of my head, but I believe there is a toast message that comes up that says the location where the file was stored.

I got a message in the notification area that gave the location. I'm using ADW Launcher if that makes a difference.

I'm looking to find the directory where apps go when they are downloaded. I have ES File Explorer.
Do you mean apps downloaded and installed from the market? If so, generally the .apk files go to data/app.

Is there a spot where they are stored after downloading, but before installation?
Try /sdcard/Download

Looked all through my SD card and did not find what I was looking for (I don't have a /sdcard/Download directory BTW). I'm looking for the ATVAndroidClient Amazon Video apk, because I saw one post where the user got it to successfully install when selected directly from its directory location. I too am having trouble getting it to install when I just select it from the popup window after it's dl'd.
The directory structure is pretty annoying on this (and I guess android). I find multiple (3,4,5+) locations for downloads (and books, media, etc). Each browser puts it somewhere else, etc usually without asking. Anyway, easiest thing to do is to do a search with a file manager (root explorer, file expert) to find where you downloaded something.
It is in /cache as downloadfile.apk

There you go! That's what I needed. Thanks jillpacker. And sure enough when I installed Amazon Video from there, it worked fine. Sweet.

Yep. Try as I might it would not work that way for me the "normal" way. Seemed to happen to a few others.

Alright! I am glad you kept trying and finally got it figured out. Very cool.
Does Anyone know how I can determine which app is creating a Folder on my Sdcard? When I click the folder its Empty, so its basically pointless...
Thanks in Advance!
The folder is usually named something similar to the apk, so if you search through your /data/app directory you should see a similar name as the created folder.

Usually when you go in to the folder you might catch a clue of who they are and what app created them.
Many goes by the dev name or software name.

Normally when a software stores in the SD card, it will create a folder with its name or the name of the dev company that made the program.
This is not always the case but its what usually happens, and this way you may have idea of why the (xxx) folder exits

When I open the folders there all Empty, so I can't figure out which app there from? Plus the names aren't a match to any of my apps...

I see what you say, I have that in my SD Card too. Sometimes its in reference to apps I've had in the past, sometimes its just for caching that the apps use it. In some cases I've seen that they where there when I've had another phone and because I've been lazy on cleaning it, it just carries on to the new on.
I would say, that if they are empty, then just leave them there, maybe one day if you start fresh on a new phone or ROM then before you start up to phone just place the SD Card in the PC and delete all the suspect ones, you should have a fresh start without issues then because you'll still be reinstalling the apps and they will create the folders they need.

I delete them they come back. Theyre like spyware or something it seems and I say this because I haven't added any new apps in a long time but I remove these daily.. The newest one I was getting was z7logs which I came to find was from outlook but like I said haven't added any new apps on this phone in months... Keeps me suspicious.. Did you ever find anything out ab the myrecord folder?
Directories myrecord & myalbum
Directories myrecord & myalbum are created by the
"Easy Downloader" app and also the "Pro" variant.
Creating empty files with equal names prevents directory
creation. But uninstalling is the only way to avoid this completely.
Best regards

Just use the media sync option when you plug your phone into the computer... You will then have the option of selecting internal or external storage!
hello peeps
fews days ago rooted and flashed to jelly bean, just noticed that any pictures i take go to the internal memory, when taking pictures or video there is no option to select which memory you can store them on any ideas, and plz no sarcastic comments:crying:
sorry i dont have an answer for you but i noticed the same thing, also pc does not see phone when connecting via usb so cant see anyway to drag and drop files onto my external sd card.
Kies does not seem to work with this rom either

While in the camera app, click on the settings icon. It's the one shaped like a gear. Scroll to the second to last option, which is "Storage." Select "Phone" for internal storage or "Memory card" for MicroSD.
Let me know if that is what you were looking for.
As I stated in my original post in the camera app there is no option to choose your storage

Does your memory card show up under Settings/Storage?
Yeah, shows up in storage, shows available space and unmount and format. Tried amounting and mounting but no change.
It also shows up in any file explorer and I can access all files, but no luck on the apps listed .its not really a massive problem as I will live with it till official release comes out with, but if it's a simple fix or me just being thick I will sort it.had issues with S2 and memory card on custom roms, but this has really thrown me due to it being there but not in some apps?
