Simply place the file in your sd card.
Root..... Think of a Plant The root is where it all starts, simply this is on your sd card (i.e not in a folder e.t.c) sdcard/

[Q] what files to keep/removed?

Hi people,
attached is the list of files in my sdcard of my DHD.
And since I'm new to Android, I don't want to mess things around. So my question is, which of the files can be deleted? And which of the files must present if I were to change to another bigger sdcard?
I'm sorry if this question is asked before, I searched briefly.
You could actually delete all of them. The phone will just remake new ones and all should be fine.

you can backup your clockworkmod folder on your computer which means you don't even have to keep it on your sd card . just put your file you need for a restore on your sd card when you need it again
all other files (except photos/music/personal media) will be recreated by your phone by itself.

File for restore? meaning like those recovery images?
I had the same question about files on my sd card. I actually deleted a few of them and thought i was screwed but this thread reassured me nothing to worry about that i can actually delete all files without a problem

I understand this so: you have an apk file of an app on the root SD card (so not in any folder). If you want to install it, you get the message "Application not installed". Is that right?
If yes, then it's so because the apk is not signed. You have to sign it, e.g. with xdaautotool by xjavierjohn22:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1053227 When the apk is signed, you should be able to install the app.

[MIUI] SDcard problem

Hello everyone, today I´ve noticed the problem on my HTC Desire with SDcard... I am using MIUI ROM, normally flashed via recovery. Whenever I want to look at my pictures through gallery, play the music or browse categorized files using MIUI File explorer, I can see no pictures, no music/videos or image thumbnails... But one interesting thing is that when I want to browse the SD card using classic file explorer/root explorer and want to open the image then I am able to watch it.. I´ve tried to unmount the SD card, replace it and reflash the ROM aswell.
What´s wrong with it? Did anybody have this issue before? Thanks in advance

Hi guys!
Which of MIUI XJ version should I install in order to get more space for installed apps? (D2whatever, A2SD, etc)
Also, can you advise how should I partition my SD in order to adjust it accordingly?
(ext 2 / ext 3 / ext 4)
Thanks!
SOLVED! I have tried to format my SD card and its solved for now...
Solved!!!
Went to recovery mode... partitioned SD card... Though it wasnt detected while trying to format in recovery, it did partition. Now rebooted phone... Only one partition was detected. Connected to PC. Tried to format... No go. Rebooted to Partition. Tried to delete partition, did format, bingo!!!

[Q] Unable to mount USB in CWM 5.8.3.1

Hi,
In Mount and storage when im trying to get access to internal memory I get an error 'Unable to open ums lunfile'
Yesterday I thought I have bricked one of my HOX coz my zip with ROM was corrupted (I have not transfer the file in 100% - stupid me) then it took me a while to get a working adb command to push the file on 'sdcard' and finally install the ROM. Its not right that I cant mount the sdcard.. isnt it ...
I was trying to find the answer but I cant find anything clear....
Please help.. I have same problem with both my HOX'es
Why can't you just push with adb..?

CWM recovery doesn't support usb mounting, as you can see from the first post of the CWM thread, so yes that is normal.

As of 5.8.4.0, ClockworkMod supports usb mount. It was released in June. You can still use adb push to put files on your phone if you wish.

You must have a file manager installed on your phone. Go to Play Store and install ES File Explorer. Start it, and in the upper part you will see sdcard, click it and select sdcard1 (this is your sdcard).
Go to the location in your sdcard1 where you put framaroot, click it and install it.
Yesterday i updated my C1905 to new firmware (15.1.C.2.8) with PC Companion, and rooted my phone with the tutorial you mentioned,
and everything has gone well.
