There is an app named as DiagPro. When it installed, it must create a folder named as cnlaunch in internal memory like DCIM, Music, Alarms or others. At android 4.2.2 or at some devices it can not create folder so it cannot work. But the weird thing is it can do at most of the other versions and other devices and the older version of DiagPro can create folder at any version of android too. I need to use the newest version but i couldn't find the solution. What can be the solution for this? I am thinking about permission issue but older app can create. Maybe the default name of the internal memory may be a problem.

Hi everyone,
I have a question or maybe someone can give me some advice?
Is there an application that can do this or maybe a terminal app, and someone knows the commands to enter?
I am very anal and a complete neat freak, so my sd card on my xperia looks very unorganized. I have tried to create a folder called android and move all the dependent files to android there but the folders and files just get recreated.
I would love to have my sd card Folders look like:
Android (defualt for android),
Music,
Pictures,
Movies,
Temp,
and so on.
does anyone know how this type of organization could be done, I have an X10a rooted. So could i not open a terminal and change the default path to my sd card to a folder rather than the root of the card.
So this would make android put anything it wanted to write to the sd card into a folder called Android.
Hope someone is as anal as me and has figured out a way to do this.
I agree and would also like to know if there's an option to deal with this. I think it's absurd that Android defaults to dumping temp files an app folders all over the sdcard with no actual organization. I can't think think of a single reason why it can't just put all of these things in an "Android" folder and make a giant mess out of that, instead of doing it right in the sdcard root.
This was posted in July and this is the first response. Anyone have any ideas?
Root explorer paid app will allow to create folders and move stuff around
sent from my Commodore 64
BUMP
would also really like to know if it can be tidied up
what about dynamic links like the same way apps2sd works
Just an idea
Bump, still searching for a solution to this
I would think that with all the mods, this might be able to be done.
I'm going to ask if the moderators good move this thread to a more general forum like the android q&a?
would be nice to have all sym links go to an android folder, instead of the root of the sd card. or maybe the android files need to be on root?
still searching......
I am afraid this cant be done - every Android app has a ability to write wherever on sdcard. There is dierectory Android, which is default for every android app data.
Some developers respect it some not, many apps dont write do /sdcard/Android but creates their own dirs wherever on sdcard.
I think about one solution, because I am linux geek and hopefully many thinks could be done on Android similar way
Repartition the sdcard with two discs - one to be mounted as /mnt/sdcard - where all of the junk stuff and android configs will be stored as usual and second one partition (bigger) mounted eg. as /mnt/ext_sdcard
But there is one problem, because not all of apps are able to work with files on eternal storage....
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
Hello,
Today I updated one of my friends phone to Android 4.3 from Android 4.1.2. I rooted it and installed a custom ROM. The problem is, all images, songs, files, everything is gone. The strange thing is that storage is used by more than 4 GB (the same use before losing data). When I go to install ZIP from the recovery, there is a 0 folder inside SD Card, however, I cannot access it normally using a file manager, not even using ES file manager or root explorer.
Any ideas?
Note: Better say, file managers can only go to sdcard/0 which has empty folders. How to go to sdcard?
Read the sticky thread in general forum on changes to file structure between 4.1 and 4.3.
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.
