App to sd?

Which folder does an app that had been saved to sd go? is it saved to the root of the sd card? Can't seem to find that app since I flashed ee03 modem and swiss cheese goodness...

On the sdcard/.android_secure/ folder.
You won't see it without a root file explorer because its a hidden folder in the linux format (.) in front of the name indicates it.
There's a couple of subfolders which contain detail programs or data.

It should show up in your downloads folder or the subfolder of whatever browser youre using

[Q] transferring app data from a rooted Arc to a non-rooted Ion

So, how do I do this? have manually transferred the apk files so that I have the apps installed, but how do I transfer the app data? I haven't turned on Google backup, and I hear it is a bit hit and miss anyway, so what is the best way of doing this? Does titanium backup work on a non-rooted phone?
Thanks
Bolo

I don't think it will do it automatically but maybe where you have to install each one at a time. And without root I don't know if it can link it to market etc. I used to use my backup pro on my X10 before root

Titanium no go wo root but do u even need data? Sometimes that's trouble anyway w using a dif rom. If u have apks just install, open and reset them, minor pain but otherwise could get nothing but force closes. eb

After running a bit and market too should sync themselves. eb

I'm trying to do the same thing did you ever figure it out?

After install the game, look for the file or folder of your game in the old phone - copy & paste to the new phone in exact location. Ie: /android/data/..xgame.
I play PES2012 and that worked for me.

Nope still have not. The game data is saved on the system part of the phone and so can't transfer without root...

Rooted or not you still able to access system folder.

Hi, I might be missing the point here, but if you are not rooted you cannot write to the root folders. So even if you can access the folders (which I can using astro on my non rooted ion) you cannot write the required data which means cannot transfer the data. It really depends on where your app saves the game.
Sent from my LT28i using xda app-developers app

I could be wrong but I don't think any programs install after the rom would write into the system and do not allow you to copy & replace. You just have to know what you are doing.

Unblockme definitely saves a database to the data/data folder of the root. Like I said I think it depends on the app.

@ bolochan
I download the game and played it - really cool game. I found the folder for the game - from Astro - /mnt/asec/com.kiragames.unblockme - copy that and paste to your ION, you should be good.

Thanks. But my asec folder is empty. My data is found in the root folder, at /data/data/com.kiragames.unblockme
I might try moving the game to the sdcard first to see if this helps.
Edit. If I move the game to sdcard/ internal storage, I get the folder in the asec folder. However I believe this folder only contains the app itself, not the game data. Will keep looking.

SD Card won't read on Epic 4G

I turned my phone off and on and now my SD card isn't being read. My phone says it's mounted and I can go into it with Root Explorer and mess with anything and everything, but when I go into Apollo or Google Play Music, no music is shown, and when I go into gallery, no pictures are shown. How do I fix this?

Check for a .nomedia file on the root of your sd card.

I found it and deleted it, but no luck. Still can't find music files and pictures in Gallery.

Did you reboot after and verify it was gone? Also look in your music and picture directories for that file and remove it. Then reboot.

I thought so too. A reboot doesn't matter when it comes to that. I got so mad at my phone when it was a simple solution... -__-

Lost.dir, what is it and can I delete it?

Lost.dir, what is it and can I delete it? It's taking up .9 GB of my sd card memory, is it safe to delete?
Sent from my SGH-M919 using xda app-developers app

Yes. It is safe to delete. Its a remnant..err..a place where lost files are stored. Usually created when you unplug the phone without safely removing it. Safe to delete. Hope that helps.
