If you're rooted you can change its permissions and then delete it. Use root exploreror other file manager app

[Q] where to put files on android 4.2.1 obb?

I have several games like Modern Combat 4 obb file.
but in version 4.2.1 leack have not succeeded.
Error throws me
please if someone succeeded or know where you appreciate them immensely

Simply goto sdcard/android/then you should see folder named data.
Also there should be a folder called obb.
If you dont see that folder then just create one and you place the .obb file in that folder

i have the same problem.. so this occurs in version 4.2.1? My galaxy s4 gives me error also transfer files from pc to /sd/android/obb. The only way for you to by modify the permission of this file is to root the phone and use AntTek explorer.
Actually, in 4.2 JB, the multiuser directory structures make it different.
The obb info now has a folder outside of the /storage/emulated/sdcard0/0/Android/obb folder.
using a root enabled explorer, navigate to /data/media/obb , and paste the contents there.

I am running supernexus rom 4.2.2.....went to /sdcard/android....made a folder named obb and pasted my obb file.
Used root explorer as my file browser app. Worked in first go for me. Try and let me know your response.
I Got a Problem here, Where I Tried The Method using the File Explorer to move the files, It Works But The Game Isn't Running.. It fade out instead of running the game.. I'm using Galaxy SIII 4.2.2 Leak..
I did all the steps on my htc one android 4.3 ( unrooted device) when i run the game it asks to download the file. does anyone know why its not working on my phone? do i need to root
It must go on internal sdcard. For example, for Layton Brothers Mystery Room it goes like that:
Code:
/storage/sdcard0/Android/obb/com.Level_5.MysteryRoomENG/main.6.com.Level_5.MysteryRoomENG.obb

But you answered your question yourself, you need to put the .OBB file in android\data\obb folder of your phone memory, and best use a computer to do this, or ES files explorer

ASEC containers are partition images anyway, if you have the actual app already installed move it back to /data using Link2SD then it will have files in the standard locations (/data/app, /data/data, /sdcard/Android)... but then OBB always goes to media partition IIRC

I haven't tried asphalt, but if the app was dl'd through play store, shouldn't the obb file be already in the correct location? (sdcard/Android/(file folder)/.obb file)? Now I understand op is trying to move files from PC to phone. Even if he moved the apk to /data/app or install it the location of the .obb file will not change. Regardless of the apk being installed or not, unless he downloads it through the app, which is not the case. He needs to copy it in the correct location.

I was trying to update a game that i have restored via titanium backup after reverting back to stock miui,but i couldn't update because the game folder which is placed in Android/obb is not writable.when i unistalled the game i noticed that the folder is still there.then i came to know about it.i also tried to create a folder in Android/obb/. It works. But the problem is only with that particular game folder located in Android/obb/gamefolder. I couldn't delete nor create a folder in it.i couldn't change permission cuzz there is no option in file manager. Default file manager shows it as readable and writable but it is not. Please help me to fix it.

Question Can't Edit or Move and Copy Files to Android/Data or Android/OBB Folder

Hi, does anyone know how to edit Android/Data and Android/OBB folder?
I can't move any files to those folders and I can't edit the contents even rename it too.
It was just fine when I'm on OneUI 3. After I update it to OneUI 4, which is Android 12, those folders completely uneditable.
I CAN still access it, I just CAN'T edit the inside of those folders.
not sure what folder you are referring to, but you can reproduce the issue and submit error to samsung members app > get help > error report.
Samsung should be able to confirm what the issue is. Hope this helps.

I've tried this.
The thing is, I can access the OBB and Data folders but I cannot edit the contents inside of it. So I can't rename or add anything inside those folders..
Try TotalCommander file manager.
