i got the latest build but nothing of the improvements are working on my tilt 2 i want to know how to uninstall it so could install again. thanks
goto remove programs itll be on the list and when ur done with that goto ur storage and delete the andboot folder
cant find anboot folder
If there is a folder called Android, delete that. If the andboot and android folders don't exist, you're going to have to delete the files manually.
Delete the following files and folders from the root of your microSD card (if they exist): HaRET.exe, default.txt (or startup.txt depeding on your setup), data.img, rootfs.img, zImage, system.sqsh, any of the FSCKxxxx.REC files, "AndroidApps" , the "conf" folder, the "cache" folder, the "download" folder, the "media" folder , the "startups" folder, and the "wallpapers" folder. That should be most or all of the files used by Android.
thanks master

To clean your SD card, simply just format it via your computer.
I need to keep SD there 14GB of data on it,
Delete default.txt (or startup.txt depeding on your setup), data.img, rootfs.img, zImage, system.sqsh, any of the FSCKxxxx.REC files, the "Android" folder (if you have one), the "AndroidApps" folder (if you have one), the "conf" folder (if you have one), the "cache" folder (if you have one), the "download" folder (if you have one), the "media" folder (if you have one), the "startups" folder (if you have one), and the "wallpapers" folder (if you have one). That should delete most or all of the Android files.
i always wished android was in 1 folder for this reason.

I just ended up putting everything else that was WM related in its own folder instead... that way when I clean my SD I only have to worry about making sure that my "WMStorage" folder stays on my card, and I can delete everything else without fear.
i keep what i can in folders but android is still mixed in with stuff that has to stay at the root of the sd card. it doesnt bug me that much but i still wished it was set up a little different.

Thanks
It is all sorted out..

How can I edit my cabs to change their default installation folder to SD/program files, for example, instead of their default installation folder which is usually somewhere on the device memory ?
I have got an app on my PC called WinCE Cab Manager. I used it to edit a cab file, changed the installation folder to \StorageCard\program files......but what it did was created a folder & subfolder on the device memory & named them StorageCard\program files

Should it not be "Storage Card" - with a space?
go in the CAB information properties,
edit installation directory,
add folder "Storage card" on root
add program files there or whatever.
for files then keep "install dir"
-
remember that installing on sd is not standard install.

Yes. I did that & the result was that it has created a folder on the device memory called Storage Card & installed the app in a subfolder in that folder.
It neglected the physical Storage Card completely. My objective is to change the default install dir of all my cabs so when I use XDA_UC, it automatically install them to the SD Card. What XDA_UC currently does is semi-auto install whatever I put in XDA_UC/SD, meaning that it runs the installer & asks me to select where to install the app.
oh.. And other thing is, if your card is not plugged in/initialized when UC will start, it may just create a folder Storage Card and then initialize SD as "Storage Card2" ... happened to me pretty messy.
You can make cabs which don't ask to ask:
wceload.exe "%1" /askdest
but there is no param. for default=SD
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=5090353&postcount=74
I reckon you need a wceload.exe replacement, or to make a mortscript to click on SD option every time for you.
Anyway advice on that link above, that SD apps usually don't need re-installing is right too
Other option would be forgot the cab. make a zip file of all files and reg file and use mortscript to import them.

It is easy to zip all my cabs in one zip file. How do I create a reg file & how do I import them with mortscript & what do I do after importing them ?

you got it wrongly, the last option was not using CAB at all.
I don't know what you are trying to do. Hard to guess. Why would you want to install on SD on the first place?
In my case, I am placing maps and files which programs can only use from SD, I have them in zip and unzipping with 7zip which accepts plenty of arguments.
You know that CAB is something like zip. You don't need to use CAB and can have the same results. And if you creating those cab yourself, why not just create zips. And you have it compressed better too.
- what is reg? file containing registry entries. if you don't have any you don't need that.
- nothing to do after
- for files:
you place all files in folders in this zip file, starting with "Storage Card"
this will check SD card, if it's present and then unzip file "file.zip"
I have this file and 7zG.exe files in ROM-windows folder, but you can change that below.
for this script to run you need mortscript.exe and 7zip programs, they are free
==
SetMessageFont(17, "Tahoma" )
While( not DirExists("\Storage Card"))
SleepMessage( 99, "Insert SD card", "SD card missing", false, DirExists("\Storage Card"))
EndWhile
RunWait("\windows\7zG.exe"," x \windows\file.zip -y")
I am not that knowledgeable technically. I do not not create Cabs. All I am trying to do is figure out a way to have the cabs I have installed silently on the SD after I flash any new ROM. I place all my cabs on Storage Card in folder XDA_UC/SD. This is not a silent installation. It needs user intervention as on each cab installation, it prompts me to select where to install to (device or SD Card). I am very humble when it comes to reg files & stuff like that. I do not know how to write them or how to use them afterwards.
I have always wanted my settings saved aswell to be applied on the next ROM installation. Thanks to NRG, his ROMs come with Settings Export app that simplifies things but exporting all settings to Storage Card in folder XDA_UC & accordingly it is applied at new ROM installation.
why do you want to install to SD card?
What pda you have? Are you low on internal memory?
I only put an app on SD if I had less then 5MB internal free.
You should use your internal memory for programs as it's faster and better protected against lost clusters and unfinished writes.
And to use SD for personal data, as pictures, mp3 as it's easier to make backup of it and access speed doesn't matter there so much.
There is no reason keeping more then 5MB free of internal memory.
A time ago I put update of opera on SD, once when it crashed, it damaged file structures and I lost half of my data on SD.
You can have silent installs to internal memory.
-
Other thing is, as someone wrote before, for most of the apps you don't need to install again on SD card if they are still there. Before you reflash, backup
folder \windows\Start Menu and after reflash, copy it back.
I have made many saves on fpse but where are these files actually saved?
I have heard it should be in the .mrc or .mcd folder but I dont have them folders
I don't know. I tried finding them myself at one time but failed. They are burried within the system somehow.
What you can do is specify the path to your own "slot1.mcd" and "slot2.mcd" files by just creating two .txt files and rename them to those names. Though you will lose the saves you have in the other save files.
But there's an option to backup all files to sdcard in the "system" meny. Try doing that and go look on the sdcard for the .mcd files and then just put them somewhere and specify the location to them.
I used the backup option, then navigated to fpsebackuo folder on the sdcard and copied the files from the memcards folder. Now my memory cards are on the sd and not taking up space on the internal memory. Same thing works for save states, but its a different subfolder.
Thanks guys I used the backup idea. Managed to get a saving I had on my ps3 onto the xperia play
Its in /data/data/ by the way

I found mine at the main directory in your internal memory (by default I guess) under ".fpse". You might need to use a computer since that folder was not visible by my android file managers.
Hope it helps.
Hi . I'm a newbie
My note 2 is running in low memory
Total memory is 10.46 GB

So where is the rest? What should I do to free some space?
Thanks

What rom/system were you using before? In some situations when installing new rom version over the old without doing full wipe there are leftover files from old installation.
Using root explorer go to /storage/sdcard - list what is in there
go to /storage/emulated - there should be 2 directories there: 0 and legacy - list what is in there
lastly go to /mnt/shell/emulated - list what is in there - if you see there directories like "0", "legacy" then it's your original internal sd directory.
Now while installing new rom, almost all files from that directory should be moved to "0" directory for multiuser environment configuration, but sometimes they are not - the will be normally not visible in settings>storage information creating lost space" phenomena
Now comes the hard part - you can delete almost all files and directories except "0" and "legacy", but there may be some config files from your recovery and/or backup files from the same source (those directories will have in their names some familiar words, for example: devil, agni, clockworkmod, twrp) - you should not touch them. Browse directories (except "0" and "legacy") for old program data, obb files and directories, media, music and video files and delete them as they are not visible to your media players or programs. They are a bit like old "program files" and "documents" from Windows world

Were you in the root folder when you started searching for mentioned folders? Root folder is the topmost folder with main subfolders (etc, system, sys, storage, mnt and others) - there is no way that you would not find "storage" folder - it MUST be there.

It's a bit of a misunderstanding: Root folder is the main folder of whole file system, but it is also a simple folder named "Root" in the root folder (or otherwise called root directory) of the file system. It's the same if you crated in some directory a new directory and named it "directory" Easy, yes?
In the root directory you should have some typical directories: cache, config, d, data, dev, efs, etc, lib, mnt, proc, sys, system, storage and others
There must be a directory named "storage" and there must be a directory named "mnt" - those are the ones I was writing about before, please follow that.
Oh, and under any circumstances do not delete /dev (even if Android would allow that).

Update : the mnt/shell have emulated. So which folder i should delete? .
I checked some folder i reconize some super strange thing in root.
The sdcard and extsdcard folder in root folder. . The storage folder has 2 folder too. . When i go to mnt/sdcard there ate have 2 more folder like that. And the super strange thing is these files in those folder is completely same like they are duplycating. Can you answer this?
Update : still don't know why the storage folder is 4.02Gb but when I take information of each one in that folder and combine it i got over 3Gb . What the hell?

There are a lot of duplicate directories like that because they are virtual directories, like shortcut files on Windows , but unlike in Windows they have the size of all children files (with some exception. It is complicated and hard to describe without .... a lot of explaining for which I have no time ) The directory /mnt/shell/emulated is of interest to us, in enclosed picture you can see "User directory" that contains all files that your current profile uses, some directories in pink - they may be there or they may not be, but you should not under any circumstances delete them, directories in green are free to delete. Please list any other directory you will find there and their sizes so I can advise what to delete.

you put it in internal sd or external sd?
Tap install & internal sd should show with documents folder a few lines down.
If not tap select storage to change to external (or internal if you were in external already) again documents folder should be a few lines down.
Note: as you are in install option it will only show .zip files, if you extracted it before nothing will show up (same if you created img file)
