Same as the question can i explore root folders on pc? And if yes how?
Correct me of I'm wrong but as far as I know you can only explore root folders using the command line tool adb. I'm not aware of any GUI apps that can do this.

hey.
anybody knows here how to install system app (htc calendar widget) via terminal emulator. i have copy that file to the root of sd card../???
If it is an apk file and it is on the root of your SD card then use any file manager such as astro or root file manager to locate the apk and select it and the phone should automatically recognize it..
If you actually want to do it through terminal I am not sure

This may sound dumb but I cannot find where the phone is installing the apps. I'm just trying to restore manually some things related to the Zedge app but cannot find the folder. I am not rooted yet but I should be able to see the app folder right?
It's /data/app like any android phone. Not sure if you will be able to access that partition unless you are rooted.
Ok that folder shows up empty. Must need root then to view it. Ty

Be more specific. what's happening when you try to access files with adb or a file explorer?

I know how to make camera save to SD card NOT WHAT IM ASKING.
I am using Chrome, and stock mms, on stockrom[roooted]v2 by docholiday77.
Can i change the default save location to a folder on my SD card? Or have it ask where do you want to save this?
because right now its saving to internal sdcard>downloads. and im having to use my Root explorer to copy and paste the files into the appropriate file location, and its very inefficient.
Create a symlink using root explorer.
Long press the folder you want to use and choose Link to this Folder. The rest should be apparent.
Don't know if it'll hold after reboot.

My bad...
ment i have Root browser and ES file explorer*
there's no Symlink with them but there is a create shortcut in Root browser is that the same?
There should be a way to link them using those. Give it a try and see.

I'm trying to delete an apk file within a Rom in my storage/ download folder under system /priv-app strange enough long pressing to delete the apk as you usually can do to any file doesn't open a option to delete or any option at all .This is all within the Rom itself.
I was directed to delete the Samsung service 2apk to bypass Samsung sign in after flashing the rom, but I can't even with root granted and using two different root browsers.

You can buy root explorer and do it from there that what I use, or place hyper drive zip on your desktop or laptop and deleted from there.and move the zip back to your phone and flash away.
