guys, i really do need any help i can get, this is very important.
I know this is an old thread, but I think that folder is created by something from Cheetah Mobile, like CM Security or Clean Master.

i recently flashed rom to my 3d. i did a full wipe and everything but i was told my contacts wouldnt dissapear but theyre gone. also my sd card has 121 mb free but there is only 1 app on it? does that make any sense? thanks for your help.
Your contacts should have backed up to googles servers. Did you ever deselect that option on your previous ROM?
Can you explain the last part? What do you mean you have only one app?
Appreciate my help? Thank me

Your contacts should come back when you sign into your google account and let it sync. No idea about your sdcard.
i cant seem to find out why so much space is missing from my sd? could it be the actual rom itself? the only thing i have on there before using tb to get my apps back is adobe app.
and my contacts didnt come back even after sync.. is there anything i can do ?

I'm going to assume you are using the 8GB card. Umm, you don't have anything on it, like movies or music? Did you create a nand backup before flashing? Those can take up like 1GB of space. Do you use a lot of apps?

nope nothing on it. and yes i did. about 3-4 times. no on the apps.
View the files on your SD card with a file manager. You should see what's on it.

Wait, what three or four times? Log onto your google account four times or make a nand backup four times?
Appreciate my help? Thank me
Let me get this straight...
Your taking about your micro sd card right? Is it the 8GB one, or did you swap it?
You say you have nothing on it, but the ROM you downloaded right? Also you say you only have one app also.
Can you view in what's in your sd card?
I'm really trying to understand.

You nand backed up four times? Then that can be the problem consuming all your space on the SD card. About the other one idk.
Did you ever uncheck the boxes in the privacy settings in your last ROM? If not, then I really don't have a sufficient answer for you.
I still can't see how nand backing up would take up all of the space, but with all the given information. Theres not much I can say.

You can delete them. Or move them all to your computer to be safe. Just keep one handy, and restore back to it. You'll probably get your contacts back doing that.
Appreciate my help? Thank me
When you have your contacts back. Go to your Peoples app. Press the menu button, select import/export. Then your going to select export to sd card. Select the export to phone and google options. So next time if they go missing, you just import them.
Appreciate my help? Thank me
thanks you have been very helpful. one last thing please. lol. how do i go about deleting or moving some of them? =)

Do you know which folder they are in? If you do, then you just go to the folder and right click it. Select whatever option your going to do then voila! Your good to go.
Are you doing it by phone instead of using a computer? Just use astro file explorer and navigate to the folder. Long press it to bring up a list of options.
I assume you know how to move them to your pc right?
Appreciate my help? Thank me

Try doing a full wipe (factory reset) before restoring the nandroid backup. If you're using the latest version of TWRP, go to the advanced settings menu, and then choose format menu. Wipe cache, data, system, and boot. DO NOT WIPE SD CARD. Then try restoring one of your backups. Make sure you have your phone unplugged when restoring and rebooting (sometimes it can be problematic when plugged in). If that doesn't work, then try flashing a new rom from scratch.
The easiest way to delete your nand backups, or store them to your computer, is to plug your phone into the computer, and choose mount as disk drive. Then navigate into your sd card, and find the TWRP folder, then choose backups, then navigate into the next folder (labeled as your phone's serial number), then you'll see your backups, which are labeled with the date and time they were created. Delete the ones you don't need, or move them to your computer for safe keeping. That should free up a good amount of space on your sd card, as each backup ends up between 800-1500mb.
I need help! Recently i have found ways to swap out internal and external sd card so i can download bigger games files on my phone. But i ended up partially bricking my phone! I have change my vold.fstab and after rebooting my phone, i went to access "My Files". But, the phone says "No SD Card Inserted". I tried to change it back but i found out that i forgot to backup the original vold.fstab. Now i can't even access it through my computer to change it back. I really need someone who is experience to help me out of this! I tried hard reset and factory reset. This is a new phone so i hope i don't have to get a hell out of beating from my mum.:crying:
P.S. i am using Samsung Galaxy Ace 2 GT-I8160 <Rooted>
If there is any other information you need about my phone please ask me and i will tell you. I really need to get this phone back up to normal.
Please feel free to PM me the solution or post it here to help others who is like me...
P.S. Just unrooted.

Extract a stock ROM of your device, and replace the void.fstab on your device with the one in the zip.
This should do it.

Settings - Applications - Whatsapp - Clear data/cache
put the desired crypt7 file into the folder on your sd card
Whatsapp/Database/<crypt7> file.
then launch whatsapp and restore.
however, do remember to backup your CURRENT chats and place it somewhere else (desktop for example) as nobody is responsible if you lost it yourself.

nope doesnt work, i do everything you said but when im running whatsapp tri crypt it says Decryption failed and Recryption failed.
Ask the person who the messages belong to if you can read their messages?
I don't understand why anyone would want to do this.

Most probably, it is encrypted using the phone number that was used. If you do not have the same number in the mobile, then the decryption will definitely fail.
Whatsapp Xtractor might work as it supports encrypted files also

Hi Everyone,
Recently allot of random images popped up in my gallery, and i don't know how to get rid of them, because they point to a System folder. Here are some examples:
/System/etc/mrg_default_forms/ this is the common rood, followed by:
-MyGuide/MyGuideBoard/Initial/02/res/dreawable/
-ConciergeBoard/card_forms/birthday_noti_no_contact/res/drawable-xxxhdpi/
-QvoicePlus/sms/
Can anyone help me get rid of them without rooting my phone? it's not that i don't want to root it, but i don't want to lose the warranty.
If you need more information please let me know, i appreciate any ideas.
Daniel

Have you tried factory resetting and wiping internal storage? Those might be thumbnails or some app might have created this crap. Make a backup of ONLY those folders / pictures which do not lead to that path.

Dude,I was looking for an easy solution, it's like saying a game dies not work, well you can always reinstall Windows...
I have the following issue that needs someone to answer in detail please.
I have deleted my whats app account , I did this by using a new device as my old device was lost.
I have changed my mobile number and removed all back ups from google drive.
My issue is this - I am to believe there are backups stored on the internal memory of a phone ( seriously how many back ups does an app really need )
As I have deleted my whatsapp account will it still be able for someone to retrieve my whats app back ups from file manager or what ever internal storage ?
I HAVE ALSO CHANGED MY MOBILE NUMBER. So as to prevent any reinstall of app as old number would be needed for verification code
How far back do backs up go that are stored this was way ?
If deleted messages that were removed a few weeks prior will they show any where on these back up files ?
Regards

Your answer is no
When you delete your account your chat backup are just a trash
And nodody will access your phone data untill delete all of your data!(if you didn't turn on USBdebug or installed TWRP)
