Is it okay if i delete everything in my misc folder - Verizon Droid Incredible 2

Im trying to free up more space on my phone to put music, I'm using file explorer and I noticed 11gb is being used in that folder, I wanted to know can I delete everything or at least some of the content that is in there so I can have more space.

Ummm...which misc folder?
if its data/misc then no. There are important files in there.
Or you can buy a bigger card?

[Q] EA sports FIFA 10

I bought and loaded this game in my Samsung Galaxy S.
When I execute it asks: Select "Download" to begin...
Then it says Download in progress... 5% 5/100...
After a long time asks me to retry, again and again...
Sounds like a question for EA.

[Q] Internal DCIM shows 840mb under properties, but EVERY folder is EMPTY! HOW??

I have the weirdest issue w/ my T999 S3 ever! I checked what is eating up my internal storage, and found that I have 840mb in pics and videos, so I checked the internal DCIM folder, and EVERY single folder is empty - yet the DCIM folder shows 840mb in size and 1,417 files under properties! How is that possible??
I checked everywhere online and can't find an answer.
At first I thought it was a mirror file of some kind representing my external SD card. So I checked that, but in that are my actual pictures and 7gb worth of videos/pics.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________
UPDATE:
Oh...I think I just figured it out. With Root Explorer it shows a hidden (thumbnails) folder. But is there a way to transfer that thumbnail folder to the external SD card so it doesn't eat up my internal storage?
You coul try symlinking the folder. Create a folder of the same name, can be different if you prefer, then using root explorer long press and select "Link to this Folder". Then go to the original and choose it. Done!
Don't know if it'll work or not, and if it does you'll have to redo the process if you ever wipe data or dalvik for root explorer.
Alteratively, if you have init.d support, you can create a script to do this at boot time. Its a better way but many people don't know how, and/or don't have init.d support.

there you can see what all are occupying your storage. I seriously doubt that miscallenous files may be the culprit.
Perhaps they only appear empty! I don't know if you are rooted or not, but if you are browsing via the stock file browser, you just may not have permissions to read the files and folders. They do it for your own protection! If you are rooted then make sure you are using a root-enabled file browser.

[Q] SD Card files

Im having problems trying to delete a folder, when I try delete the folder, it doesn't delete. Ive tried so many different file managers like ES, astro and root explorer etc but they either doesn't delete or it says delete failed. I don't really want to format my card but is there a way I can delete the folder?
Which folder are you talking about?
Its just my own folder, it has Arabic files in them. For some reason when I want to delete that folder it doesn't actually let me delete. These files are just text and images. Not app related files or anything
Probably a virus. You have to delete it using a computer and an app I forgot what it was called.

If you do remember what it is called, please do get back to me, I would rather not format my whole SD card

Why do obb game files get deleted in M8?

I've put a game file on the M8. i dont have the game in my region so i used an apk and obb. The obb folder is shown empty after i try to play the game and check it. Games' files disappear, although still consuming space in the internal memory. I have to reformat the internal memory every time to get back that space. The obb folder is shown empty after i try to play the game and check it. There is nothing in it although i had put the game folder in it. But the space is still consumed. Can anybody help regarding this?
MINE IS A STOCK m8 UNROOTED.

Obvious question.

Sorry, I'm struggling here. I understood from @ethan3686 that maybe due to location (India) he had a problem installing this.
Your post of how to install the apk and obb shows this is about how to install the cracked version. In the UK you can download the game from the playstore with no problem unless you want the full version for free.

Do you mean from internal storage folder dcim to a folder on scard ?
Sent from my HTC 10 using XDA-Developers mobile app
I use a file explorer such as https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=nextapp.fx
However if you want to have photos stored on sdcard always then set storage location in camera settings
