What are these folders??? Why do they keep multiplying???
I had set every application I have to store anything to my Flash Disk to save my internal memory, but these folders keep multiplying (see attached pictures)...
Can I just delete them??? What or which application is creating them???
They are labelled as: XMEInst017.........
I think those are just junk created by some crap wares. Deleting them shouldn;t cause any issues. Any idea of what all apps installed on your Athena?
Regards,
Carty..
Those folders have to do with your browser activity/sites,
everytime you go on line it will create more.
I have erased them before with no ill effects.
lol...nope i don't see any and i go online...ie opera browser...hehe looks maybe a hard reset is needed.

Ahhhhh!!! I hate doing hard resets. Not when everything is working fine except the creation of those XMEInst.......... folders.
Where is your default folder for cookies, etc.... pointing to? I have mine set to the Flask Disk. Do you have yours pointing to the main memory? Maybe you need to check there if you have them too?
I don't mind it eating the memory of my flash disk as it can easily be erased. I don't like anything eating away from my main memory.

I also noticed they are empty, I'll investigate this more and see if they are really related to my browser activity.
Do you know which browser? Is it Pocket Internet Explorer or Opera?
OK, ... I think the creation of these folders are related to RSS Hub.
Can anyone confirm? Because I have not used PIE or Opera today and just used RSS Hub to get my feeds. I then noticed the XMEInst......... folders increased by 1.
I need someone to confirm please.
I deleted everyone of those folders since they are empty anyway. I then performed a soft reset and the folders are totally gone. Used RSS Hub and still no folders. I will now check PIE and Opera to be sure.

Check the location you have specified in HKLM/system/filesys/TempPath. You must have changed it to your flashdisk.

Yes I did changed them. I prefer that it eats up the flash disk than my main memory.
Anyway, I did find out which application creates it. The culprit is OPERA. The folders can be deleted safely with no ill effects as suggested from above.
Another thing I observed. You need not delete them manually because if you go to OPERA's settings and delete all cookies, history, passwords, and cache; all the XMEInst......folders disappear on their own.
Thank you to everyone who responded.
After restoring some of my phones databases after a hard reset I have found that in my application list I have a whole bunch of stuff that I had installed previously but don't currently have installed. After highlighting and clicking 'remove' it brings up a message saying the program isn't installed but would I like to remove it from the list of apps. So I obviously click yes...yet the application remains in the list.
This has made the list somewhat difficult to sift through in order to find a genuinely installed app. Is there any other way I can remove these names from the list?
Thank you.

There may be an easier way, but the best way I found was to reinstall the app, then remove it ...
@Redeyedrichard
sometimes reinstalling doesnt work...i found another fix online which works...
Start memmaid
jump to > databases > database usage> SwMgmtMetadataStore > browse
Look for the entry which cannot be uninstalled, highlight it and delete it
don't forget to soft reset after
Go to the folder \Windows\AppMgr and you'll see folders of (presumably) installed software.
Delete any folder in here that you want.
(But, when you delete a folder that program cannot be uninstalled normally, so take care to remove only those which have been restored and not reinstalled!)

And Bright Light, your suggestion didn't work. All of the apps appear in that folder are currently installed. Thanks anyway.

memmaid is a paid app that can be found at handango, you can also try looking at sktools...im not sure about any free software that does the same, sorry
i used SKTools for the same problem and it works perfectly :d
Swype is getting more and more hopeless by the day, firstly adding a space at the start of more or less anything i type and secondly making up words, or inserting the wrong word, all the time. But ive got so used to it now that its a struggle back on the qwerty keyboard so i want to persist.
Ive heard the way to get it back to how it started life is to wipe the cache, by the following method;
Settings>Application Settings>Manage Applications>Swype>Clear Cache
(this was found on an android forum, but on a phone running Sense).
I assume this would be the same more or less on my HD2 but alas no. If i goto the start menu i have a settings button but that doesnt contain anything about application settings. I could scroll along to the settings tab and i find an applications button but nothing in there fits the bill.
Anyone got any clues?
Im running Energy ROM 25.Oct 2010
Using a file explorer navigate to......
"my device\program files\swype"
delete the file "user data.udb" this contains all the custom words added.
theres also a copy in "my device\my documents\swype" which I assume is some kind of backup.
Get rid of those, soft reset and you should be back to just the standard dictionary, it does seem to insist on trying to insert some pretty obscure and useless words from stock though.........
As for the adding a space problem. You can turn off auto space in the swype settings somewhere.
Thanks, il give that a go. Does that also delete its memory, as i believe it remembers commonly used word combinations and such.
The space issue is different to what you suggest. Its not that it adds a space after a word, which i want, but that it adds a space BEFORE i enter the first word. This isnt a problem with text messages but is if im trying to input things into a text box or whatever, like a password where it will input " password" instead of "password". Its a strange problem and doesnt do it every time, there is certainly no obvious option that would effect it!
I cant confirm whether or not it will delete the memory, I would imagine so and Im not sure about the space thing either, sounds pretty annoying though!
"IndexService" issue solved..(Quick battery drain & endless or error index process)
"IndexService" issue cause drain your battery very very quickly... Especially, if your sd card loaded with a lot of big pdf files...
If you dont want to index your "files" go to "s search" settings through menu softkey (long press for open s search then enter menu) and uncheck files... and voila.. your pdf's and another user files not index anymore..
Actually, i really want all of my files content index by note3.. This is very very useful for my pdf library.. But for my situation; several pdf's (some of them are big textbook's, thousands of page) cause never ending indexing process and it's ruin battery life terribly..
If someone find a REAL solution beside of mine, please tell us...

There is an easy solution. Create a folder for your pdfs, drop a .nomedia file in the root of that folder, and put all of your pdfs you dont want indexed in there.
I found that the indexservice process is taking more cpu and time when I have more number of pdf files i my memory card.
So, right now either you can put less number of pdf files on your device to avoid the lag or just wait till the indexing completes.
After the indexing completes, the device works as wonderfully as it was working before inserting my memory card.
Hope I helped...Cheer!!!
Or you can just kill it in settings/apps/active...
It shuts up untill you reboot.

I really hope samsung pushes out an update about it. Even after indexing is done whenever I try to do something quickly it seems it will FC because of the indexer. can't really play any games on it as well because of it.

I don't have root either. Just go to settings > general > application manager > running, tap .com.samsung.android.strokesearch:service. (down near the bottom) Hit 'Stop' and then 'yes'.
Now it stays away until you reboot, at which point you need to do this again. Bit tedious, but it's quicker than rooting.

Easy way to root ant fix this issue
You can fix this issue very easily.
1. Root your phone in under 1 minute at towelroot.com
2. download a freezing app (I paid for a really good one, $6 for titanium backup pro)
3. freeze the offending service.
I didn't know how to do any of these things an hour ago. A quick google question for any you need to learn will give you easy answers.
towelroot is insanely easy. be sure your settings allow non play store apps to be installed; go to towelroot.com; click on the red symbol thing to download the apk; run the apk and you are rooted. done.
I have most recent OS and updates as of the date of this post, sprint Note 3 with 4.4.2 and cnc5 baseband/build number

I'm sorry, I don't understand what you mean by 'files' and 's search'. Do you mean that you have to uncheck each .pdf file in some way? What if we have thousands of them?
Or do you mean something else?
Someone else suggested putting all the .pdf files in a separate subdirectory and adding a .nomedia file. This hides ALL the .pdf files from every app that might search for them including the ones you use to read .pdf files.
We called Samsung this morning. Three levels, no help. They did NOT even understand the problem. "Do a factory reset." Did that, major nuisance, especially losing all the bookmarks in the .pdf files. No solution, it just started indexing again. It says it will take 5 hours to index and there are only 4 hours of battery left. If you plug it into the charger the Galaxy Tab shuts down after half an hour.
I was thinking of replacing my BLU phone (which has serious Play Store/storage problems) with a Samsung, but now I'm not so sure.

I've suggested that in several boards. It's what works for me. Frankly it's best to put one in every directory that you don't actively require the mediafiles from. (actively being ringtones and music.)
So any folder with documents, books, comics, navigation maps, magazines, films... You can launch all from the file explorers. (the maps don't need to be seen at all by mediascanners.) nomedia files apply to subdirectories as well, so one in each directory will suffice. You can copy one from the Android folder.
I've got one folder with 30GB worth of PDF files.
I do occasionally get an indexservice wakelock, but that's always because it hangs on a corrupt file, not the pdfs.

Factory resets don't solve these things. Customer support employees are hired for their affinity with service, not their technical and product knowledge. They usually don't know much at all.

We have a Samsung Galaxy Tab Pro SM-T520 running android 4.4.2 just updated today. We also have a 12.2 Note, and I assumed things were similar. Maybe not. He just followed your instructions. Indexing is still running in the background. It won't stop. I'm reluctant to reboot, but will if it's necessary. Is it?
I don't understand how the .nomedia thing works for you and not for us. He uses ES File Explorer and EBookDroid and neither could see the files in the subdirectory containing the .nomedia file.
I would have assumed that if you persist you can find someone in the 'help' department who at least understands the problem. Apparently not.
This is extremely discouraging

I've got a NotePro 12.2 too. Strange how it doesn't work on yours...
Is ES File Explorer not seeing the .nomedia files or is the folder suddenly empty?
Did he reboot after placing the files and changing the settings? Indexingservice will always run for a few minutes after a reboot.
Alright, have him hook the sdcard to a pc (preferably with a cardreader) and let explorer search it for 0kb files. It depends on your system language, in english you can search for 'size:empty'. You can also click the advanced search options and select size.
Any file it finds that isn't a nomedia file or a playlist, delete (or move to the pc.)
Then do the same with the tablet itself. (this will take a while, mtp is agonisingly slow.)
Surely at some point this must begin to make sense.

The 12.2 Note hasn't been updated yet. Has yours? Fear and trepidation...
There were no 0-lenth files when he read the card on the computer. Sizes of the files seemed not-abnormal and he spot checked a few, which were OK. BTW, we're using linux, not windows.
Possible misunderstanding: Previously he created a subdirectory called .nomedia and put all the pdf files in it. The subdirectory itself was invisible to ES file explorer etc.. He's now putting all the pdf and epub files in /sdcard1/pdf and adding a 0-length file called .nomedia to the subdirectory.
The index service is running and the damn thing is warming up. He's plugging it into the charger and going to bed (he keeps odd hours.) More whenever.
Google doesn't seem to be willing to offer much help unless you own a Nexus -- they just tell you to contact your manufacturer. Given that they sell android to the manufacturers, presumably at a profit, this seems at the very least cheesy and certainly not in keeping with the "Do no evil" mantra. How can the manufacturers possibly be expected to cope with the inner workings of how the OS itself operates?

Ah. Folders with a . as the first symbol are hidden folders. They're still scanned by indexingservice, just not shown. (ES has an option in settings > Display to enable them) I usually just copy the .nomedia file from SDcard/Android and past it in the folder where I need it.
Basically it should be Sdcard(or sdcard1)/pdf, with in it the .nomedia file followed by all the pdfs. You can sort the pdf's into folders inside /pdf, because the nomedia file in /pdf excludes the folders in it as well.

The issue doesn't exist on a Nexus because they don't have MicroSD slots. Samsung, HTC, Sony, LG and the others add the MicroSD slot and support themselves, and thus Google says is it their problem to solve. Makes sense, in a twisted sort of way.

BTDT, except he doesn't want to clear data/cache on the off-chance that it will delete his laboriously-recreated bookmarks in the books he's reading. It would be nice if apps would tell you exactly what they're going to delete/clear/empty.
I had a vague hope that the Samsung guy would perhaps know somebody in Samsung engineering, thereby bypassing the useless helpdroids.

Choose your size. It's a keeper.
Clearing Data/Cache on S Finder affects only the data gathered by S Finder. S Finder is nothing more than a search app. So it only clears the indexed search data.
The bookmarks made in the books he is reading are stored in the data of the reader app he is using or the files themselves. S Finder can't touch those.
I always prefer this one
I have a Note 4 and was having the same issue. The culprit in my case was the SD Card. I first used a Samsung Class 10, 64GB. "Index" was killing my battery. I formatted the card inside the phone, but it was no use. Then I exchanged the card for Sandisk Ultra 64GB, which I believe is in the same Class. Magically, "INedex" issue stopped and then I got very good battery Life! Result is: Samsung Card was not compatible with Samsung phone... Who can understand these things happenning..?!
Does anyone know where the Nook Simple Touch store it's media files? Meaning, I downloaded my books from B&N but I can't seem to find them. I have Nook Manager installed but a search from / took a long time and when it finished, it found many but didn't display any.
Thanks.

Hmm, I am not seeing anything. Using the built-in ReLaunch search, set my path to /data and no string, it yields nothing. Just using ReLaunch's file browser of /data shows no other directories or files. I looked through ReLaunch's settings and have show all files and hidden files. Not hide known directories...etc. Even try adding regex of ".*" nothing....
There also seems to be a bug in ReLaunch? When I browse down.... I can't seem to browse back up via "Up one level". The only way seems to either be reboot the nook or "reset settings to default values" for ReLaunch and then it works again.... but at some point it loses the Up one level ability again.
