Mod delete when can
Night_Slayer said:
Hello there everyone, I was scrolling through my storage using androzip, when I found this folder called "Discover new apps." I found it weird as I never saw this before and when I tried deleting it....it just won't delete . I tried wiping the internal sd card and using the external as a restore from a way earlier backup and sadly to say it's still there...

Don't worry, it's just a feature in the file manager. It's not a file which is inside your internal or external sd card. It's just in the file manager.

No... I have to put the APK installer file into internal memory... Not after installing.... Is b4 installing
In the basic sense of the question, it means just put the APK "NOT" within the sdcard or any folders under it. I think this only possible if you're rooted.
In any case, I wonder why there's such requirement. APK is just an installer and even in the sdcard level it should work or run. Then when you install, default is the app will be placed in the INTERNAL memory. That should be what you wanted.
Maybe tick the unknown sources option if its not already?

I suppose that's what i will do also even if doing so sounds strange. If still don't work probably its a bad apk. Try it on another device or look for another source.

test using titanium, so you can integrate the game to system, it can work maybe
For what purpose?
i have a *ahem" game called "Spectral Souls"....
but i can't install~
You can put it to system/app with Root Explorer if a install from sd card doesn't work.

Thanks.... Problem solved using Root Explorer~
I'm running FreeSG3 and when looking through all the apps found "My files". I'm not really sure if its part of the ROM or not but I definitely did not down load it (if it is part of the ROM, thanks Clark44). Very useful and simple app. When opened it shows extSdCard and sdcard
With a few backups and lots of apps my internal storage was getting a little low. I used "My files" to move the backups to my extSdCard and have regained a good bit of internal storage back.

My files is just a simple file explorer.....you can also download more advanced ones off the market like Root Explorer or ES Explorer....and yes moving files like backups to the external SD card will give you more system space.
Absolutely! Anyone with even a little Android experience is probably familiar with the more full featured file managers ie Astro, File Manager, ES File Explorer, Root Explorer and so one. I bring "My files" up for it's shear ease in doing a simple task, moving something from internal memory to your sd card. IMO it accomplishes this task a lot easier than those others, but I still use those others also for other things, just kind of throwing this one out there for those who have not used it before
My Files comes with the stock Samsung rom, btw.
Be careful about moving say nandroid backups to your extSdCard because some versions of CWM don't have access to the external storage only internal storage.

Thanks, yeah thats kind of why I started this thread because not all recoveries or file manager type apps have access or recognize extSd cards and My files makes it so easy to move things back and forth. Anyway I use TWRP for recovery.

Go to http://www.clockworkmod.com/rommanager
Then look for "Samsung Galaxy S3 (Sprint)". Left one is Standard CWM and right one is Touch CWM. These are .img files that must be converted to .tar files to work in Odin.

Wrong. Just download mobile Odin, change the IMG name to recovery.img and flash with mobile Odin. Much easier and no computer needed.

Change view mode to view hidden folder. See if that file is present in .Trash folder.
Usually when you delete files in file manager, it is moved to Trash folder similar to Recycle Bin or Linux Trash.

No luck.. i can only create a folder but cannot move any files
I wonder why they bothered to put a 128GB SD slot when its useless
HTC Support said its restriction from Google but my friend with a Z1 has no issues with his KitKat..

Htc has also restricted the write access on micro sd cards AFAIK . to remove the restriction, u'll have to unlock it and flash the patch.
Check in developmwnt thread for more info but ,be warned, it'll void your warranty

I wrote to HTC on this. But the reply what I received is:
Thank you for your prompt reply.
In regard to your query, Google changed the design on Android KitKat 4.4.2 to protect micro SD content for security improvement purpose and that is the reason why you are unable to move the contents to SD Card by using some file manager application until the vendors release the new software version to follow Google Android Kitkat design.
You may try to use your PC to move the content to SD card by connecting your phone to your PC temporarily.
We do apologize for any inconvenience caused.
Have a nice day!

In Android 4.4.2 you can not delete files from the memory card.
There probably is a fix somehow.. but perhaps only for rooted phones.
Possibly move the files to internal storage then delete from there?

Since moving is copying and deleteing it's not possible either.

You can delete the files on the SD card with the stock LG file explorer app that comes with the phone.
