i was having the exact same problem, i dont know what i did was the solution or not. First i rebooted un twrp recovery, went to 'android ' folder using twrp file manager and there was a obb folder though i was not able find it in other file managers. i renamed the obb folder to something elsee(i renamed it to 'ob'). now reboot. now go through es file explorer or any other explorer to android folder and there was a folder i renamed as 'ob'. now i renamed this folder to obb and problem solved.

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

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

that's strange, here try this, download dead trigger 2 and look where it's installed, then you'll see where you have to copy game files

i tried to instal Asphalt 8.
The installed files are in root\mnt\asec\
I cannot copy .obb file from my pc to that directory,he gave me an error like i dont have permision(i have rooted my phone)
I tried to copy with file manager from sd card to that directory and said that is already one file with that name already...:crying:
Obb files are placed in Android/obb in internal memory (or sdcard if your phone has one).
Buy the game. read xda rules about pirate copies of apps/games

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.

Install games directly into sdcard with obb on PC..

I got a fix...! U can install OBB directly from PC into sdcard..! ***WORKING 100%***
You need a rooted phone with FolderMount installed in it : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.devasque.fmount
First copy the APK in phone and install it..... Don't run the game now..... Then later copy the name of the obb folder like.. : for asphalt 8 it is : com.gameloft.android.ANMP.GloftA8HM
copy the name title of folder...
go to phone memory's Android/obb folder and create a folder of the same name...
you now have a folder in phone memory's OBB as com.gameloft.android.ANMP.GloftA8HM
Dont copy your data yet...
Go to foldermount and click the ""+"" icon over and insert some name for the pair... Then go in source directory and just select the "android/obb/com.gameloft.android.ANMP.GloftA8HM" directory..
when the next dialog appears click YES..!
DO NOT MOUNT THE FOLDER YET....
Now copy the data file into the folder.... after finishing the copying... Mount the folder and run the game :good::good::good: You did it....
CAREFUL: DO NOT INSTALL GaME AFTER COPYING THE DATA coz the game installer erases the data..!
Please press thanks as this method works... If you need any assistance then I will be uploading a video shortly..!
PRESS THANKS

Obb/game(xxx) permission changed

Hii.
I am using redmi note 4 sd marshmallow. I have root and twrp installed.
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.
Thank you.
