Hello, i'll try to explain what's my problem in the best way... sorry for my english...
I used Airdroid to transfer 2 songs downloaded from iTunes from pc to my Vodafone Galaxy S3. I save those 2 songs in sdcard0/mnt/extSdCard/media (now Airdroid can't see sdcard with Android 4.1.2) and than i move in extsdcard but songs in sdcard0/mnt/extSdCard/media still exist so i try to delete manually in a lot of way but i can't.
If i copy this files in sdcard0, but in other folders inside sdcard0, i am able to delete files but not in sdcard0/mnt/extSdCard/media.
I've create a New folder in mnt/extSdCard and also this folder now it's impossible to erase.
I've try with stock file manager, with x-plore and also from pc but nothing.
I would like to delete this files without wipe and root, i think it's an app that cause this little but very annoying problem.
I hope someone of you can help me.
Have a nice week end.
One its in the wrong forum its a question = Q&A
Two . You dont want wipe or root = no chance if you have failed to delete it .
Three
Choices Factory reset wiping data or rooted phone using root explorer or Android Commander .
But it is very difficult to understand your problem from your post .
jje
Thanks for reply... It's difficult to understand my problem for my English or other?
If need explanation tell me...

i asked this question before they said is in /data folder when the device is rooted but i roted my phone also but this folder is empty.
Well theres a apk in /system/app/DioDict_for_Android_LG_Swift_India.apk
permissions 0644(rw,r,r)
and theres a static library /system/lib/libDioDictEngineNative.so
and i think there was a dictionary database in the bundled mmc (a foolder called edictionary) /sdcard/
COpy these files to the directories listed above and voila! your dictionary is back
ROOT UR PHONE ,INstall ROOT explorer ,copy files, set permissions and it worked on my megatron ROM... thought might as well share it...
NOTE: If u took the NANDroid backup of your phone before installing customised ROM ...u can always extract the files mentioned above by using unyaffs.exe http://www.filecrop.com/search.php?w=unyaffs&size_i=0&size_f=100000000&engine_r=1&engine_m=1&engine_h=1
and use the system.img in your nandroid backup folder
didnt make nandroid before flashing ....
Well then look for it on filecrop.com
Can you attach the .so file here?
im willing to give my ozone wifi pass 1 gb /2 month / 2mbps to who uploads the edictionary database :|
the DIoDict Library
the library is included..i cud have uploaded that edictionary folder too..But i m on sodding 2.5g network(Its INdia) and can't even upload that..
bro i need tht edictionary :|
i formated my mmc card and lost the edictionary folder and the contents . can any one post it here if the have it ?
Is THIS the database?? Its what i could find on my card's edictionary.
But since i've installed a different ROM now, I too need the .apk for the dictionary if anyone can share...
thanks a lot
did not find diodict in my stock..can anybody upload it diodict apk
thanks in advance..

Hello everyone!
Here is a zip that contains all the files needed to make Diodict Dictionary work on custom roms (or any rooted phone):
mediafire[.com]/?umr5xvhze4wa5rc (remove "[" and "]" from the link. I am not allowed to post links yet.)
1. It contains the DioDict apk file which is in the "TitaniumBackup" folder. You can also use TitaniumBackup to restore it by placing the folder at the root of your sdcard.
2. It contains "libDioDictEngineNative.so" which you must place in system/lib folder. You will need 'root' and 'write to system folder' permissions for this. Not a big deal if you're on a custom rom.
3. It contains the databases for "Collins Cobuild Advanced", "Oxford Advanced Learners" and "StarPublications ENG-HIN" in the "edictionary" folder. You must place this folder at the root of your sdcard. The first two "Collins Cobuild Advanced" & "Oxford Advanced Learners" are awesome english dictionaries which will work offline. I don't know what the third one ("StarPublications ENG-HIN") is.
Let me know if any issues. Click thanks if I helped.
And @ccreadcc: Where is my ozone wifi pass? kidding....
Everything worked except that i was not able to paste the file.I am on CM7.
I use root explorer:
"you cannot paste here the file system is read-only"
I tried to edit the permission but say"some file do not allow permission changes"
Please Help
solution
Mount /system as writable
I don't know about Root explorer. I use ES File Explorer. In ES Explorer under Settings> Root Settings> Check both the options and you'll be able to paste the file there.
i had 2 wifi passes unused.. wonder where i put it xD
i just did !
i got success to install this on official 2.3 rom
just copy "libDioDictEngineNative.so" to system/lib folder
after that install com.diotek.diodict2.swift_india-a1c589b5691365fa3b910b4435b6d4ec.apk as u install other software .
it works for me !
thanks !!

what the hell is this file (.thmbdata3) in sd card>dcim>thumbnails.each time i free some space on my sd card ,this file getting bigger and take all the space (sd card becomes full).i dont have that much photos on gallary,so what is the problem???
gt i9000
ics4.0.4dark knight rom 5.5
i added a screenshot to see in attachment
it looks like nobody knows what am i talking about .....i think im going to flash a new rom again
i also have 2 .thumbdata files of 200 MB each in my /DCIM/.thumbnail folder
maybe it`s a bug since i only have few pictures in my phone
Think thats bad!
Think that's bad. I have two thumbdata's both at 2gb each!
My partners Xperia S still had all her old thumbnails in her album even though she has deleted most of her pictures. So I googled how to remove them, the best solution I've found is go into settings, apps, all, media storage and erase the data. When I try to test it on mine the data is only a few mb. No where near 4gb!
Still I'll let you know if I find out.
its like an temp folder on windows,android makes an virtual protokoll from files and something,you can delete these file but its come back ever,i delete these file every day,because im addicted to flash,lol and i haved never problems.so delete it,its safe(my opinion).greeeeeetz
the best solution i found my self is: delete the big file thumbsdata and then never run the stock camera app,if you run it ,the file will be generated again consuming all your free space(me becomes 0 bites free :crying.......of coarse i cannot live without a camera app so i installed fx camera app.... it is good now but if i turn fx cam to video mod the problem comes again(it uses the stock camera app for video ,but not for photos),,,,,so i will not use video record option, until some hero comes with a fix
Yeah! That's it!

Just copy names of that files (thumbdataX--x), delete that files and other files in folder, then create folders named the same as deleted thumdatas. Reboot device. No annoying thumbdata3 (my spend 2Gb) anymore! And look in folders named LOST.DIR (you can find it in the root directory of your internal memory and your SDcard) - huge temporary files may be left in these folders, so delete these files.
Tested on Toshiba Thrive Tablet (ICS). No problems with gallery and camera apps.

new FOLDER with the same name as thumbdata-file
Untile now this works.i dont see any thumpsdata files.

Solution works!
In my opinion that file was related with pic preview directly from camera app, when you click on little thumbnail.
When I deleted it, camera stopped working and that thumbnail was blank until file was recreated, then it worked again (with 2GB pictures and a 2.74GB .thumbdata!)
Now creating the folder with the same name of file stopped that huge file from recreating himself.
I think camera now refers directly to thumbnail files (in thumbnails folder) for preview. Or, if not, that's the same because now I have 2.74GB more on my internal SD!
Yes this is a camer app problem(or bad feature:banghead: ) it takes space more than the photos itself....anyway this is the only way right now to fix it.

I created the directory with a dot infront
and the folder seem to be fail to created
So I trying another method is using Root explorer
and change the permission to remove all write permission on that thumbdata file
Let see which one works

@einst31n Maybe there is another thing eating yor memory...try "folder size" for windows, it is a tool that arrange all folders in size and give you a statistic figure.

folder size does not arrange the files of portable devices i guess, since it didnt show my phone's files. only the hd files are shown

Hi,
I wanted to see the whole file system of my phone. I have already rooted it.
This is what I want to do :
I have installed an app. by the name "Printershare". It is, as the name says, for printing. When I connect a printer to the phone, it downloads some driver pack from the internet. I want to check what it downloaded (All the files everything in the 'Driver Pack'). But when I connect my phone to my system, using samsung kies, I can only access the phone data and not the data internal to the apps.
Is there any way of accessing everything on the phone?
NOTE: Phone is already rooted.
Thanks

Download a file manager on your phone like ES File Explorer or something similar. Those usually allow you to browse to root directory after gaining superuser privileges.
Or if you want to just view them you can install terminal emulator and do a
Code:
cd /
Well via a pc I dont think there is a method to access system partitions...but if you use ES file explorer ..you will be able to access all your system files through your phone itself....but be careful not to delete any important files in the system good luck
hope this helped
use adb shell

If the app you installed is a normal apk file....and I mean if you installed it like normal....some of the app data will be in the data folder of your root ....that means you need to go back up to the root folder...then you will see a folder called data....go into that folder and you will see many folders....there are two important folders....one again is named data...the other is named app....but please if you dont know what you are you better not go in...as there maybe risks to the system....
/data/app
/data/data
these are the two pathways of the folders
good luck...hope this helps

Hi
I have a galaxy s3 and i deleted application backup directory by mistake
I am looking for name of relatede folder and sub folder in my files
Regards
Peyman
Your post makes no sense at all, if you have a problem with an app then contact the publisher.
I have a galaxy s3 and i deleted application backup directory by mistake
Whatever the application then the directory may be deleted .Try RECUVA .
As you don't bother to say then you guess where and what .
Wild guess: you deleted your apps backup folder but are interested in recovering a subfolder??
First off, the bigger or more files the tougher it will be to recover them.
Secondly if you deleted them a long ime ago you have even less chances.
Thirdly if you performed many operations on your phone after deleting them you have even less chances (downloading stuff copying doing stuff anything).
On android hexamob recovery pro is good but i think you need root.
If not plug in your phone to pc and use the recuva mentioned above. Dont expect miracles, your files may have changed name or have been corrupted.
