I was cleaning up files on my Galaxy Note 4 (unrooted) and found a folder in the device storage
named
V3Go
with the structure given above, which seems to contain map tiles (but named xxxxxx.png.osn)
I cannot identify which application these belong to (possibly something I uninstalled long ago
which left lots of data used?
Anyone have an idea?
I would love to delete this data, but of course I don't want to damage any app that might be using it.

Hi guys, I would like to ask something regarding the application folders.
If I uninstall an app, what I do is I clear cache first then clear data then force close the app and then uninstall. Would that delete all the folder created by the app during its previous installation process?
I checked my internal phone storage today and i saw "Summer Player" folder and it has PNG files inside it. I could not find any apps that uses those PNG files.
I'm wondering if that's a folder that was previously created by one of the apps I installed and was not removed during uinstallation process?
I would like to have an organize folder in my system and removed any unused folder. Could i checked which application is using a specific folder?
Thanks and sorry for the long post.
i saw a summer player folder in my mobile too. maybe we can compare what games do we have in common and figure out where it came from? i tried googling and the results seems to point towards poweramp

Your post makes no sense at all, if you have a problem with an app then contact the publisher.

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.

Hi there, yesterday I noticed that about 500mb of files disappeared from my downloads folder. I am not exactly sure what caused this to happen but i suspect it to be a system update a day prior (Only other things that changed recently was that I installed and uninstalled malwarebytes). All files except for around 10 had disappeared (dont think it has anything to do with their file format as other files of the same format disappeared as well). However files within subfolders inside the downloads folder were fine. My android shows that the space is free (51.7 gb used of 53.9) and i cant find the files with diskdigger when i tried, even though it had found files i had deleted from a year ago. However when I plugin my phone to my PC, my pc shows that 52.2gb of 53.9gb of space is being used (although i still cant see/find the files on pc except for a 126b M3U file). Im wondering if theres anyway to get the data back and what is causing the issue.
Thanks

Hello friends. I know this is a long-shot, but here goes:
Every few days I find and delete a folder called tencent inside my Android's internal storage.
The folder contains a sub folder called beacon and inside it, a file called meta.dat whose contents are not human readable (is computer code).
The weird part (and I can't stress this enough) is that I have NO apps installed from the company tencent, so unless any of the apps I do have is playing dirty by having deals with that company and not informing its users, I have no idea why the folder keeps reappearing.
Is there any way in android to determine what app created a file or folder? Or can anybody shed some light on the matter?
Best regards
Hi! -- I observed the same thing on an OnePlus 5. I'm running latest Open Beta, not sure if it helps.
When I delete the folder, it may get recreated at a later time, and I can't figure out if it's recreated by an app I'm using or from something from the OS...
I have the same problem on a stock Galaxy S10 with no tencent apps installed. Any ideas yet?
Hello,
I have a Asus ROG Phone 3 and have a few questions.
Anytime I reboot my phone and go to check my internal storage, Android is automatically creating the following folders ASUS, Movies, Music, TwinApps, and Subtitles folder.
I assume this is just the default Behavior but does anyone know of a way to disable that or just to keep those folders deleted forever?
My phone is rooted, and I'm tech savvy as hell but I can't figure it out.
Anyone have a clue if the service/app that is remaking these folders is Android itself or somerhing from Asus?
I also recently switched to Android 12 and I noticed something strange, anytime I try to edit or access /sdcard/Android/OBB folder I can't edit anything in it, I can't copy or paste anything into that folder if I can even view it.
Mind you this is with root and using a file manager I've been using for years that I know works. Did something change in the background of A12?
Lastly does anyone know if there is a way to change the default save location for screenshots and/or DCIM camera folder?
Thanks

1) most of the folders are created by android Media scanner but at least one is Asus specific. in theory any app can create own folders, if allowed in permissions.
2) you need file explorer that is updated to support scoped storage so it can view media files from other apps, for example SD Maid.
3) in camera app itself one can switch storage location to MicroSD card. not sure about screenshots, though.
