Go in to your TWRP folder either via file explorer, root explorer, or hooking up to your PC via USB, then go to back ups, then you should see "00000000000", go there, and make sure you delete the right one.

If someone hasn't already done this; can someone please make an app that lets you download strait to the sdcard. I only have access to a computer at home. It would be nice to download the newest ROMs from my phone and skip the computer all together.

Depending on the file, my phone downloads directly to /sdcard/download/
mine to but I want to be able to download a rom directly to the root of the sdcard. If its in a folder it won't work.

ive had roms in folders before, worked for me
Download Astro file manager go into downloads.. Long press and hold on the ROM and copy it.. hit the bottom on the top which will take it to the root of the SD card and there you go!

Usually you download the file directly from the webpage using a Browser, like Dolphin...

You can also utilize a terminal application and utilize the command "mv" to move from /sdcard/downloads/ to /sdcard/. Also, you should be able to install from a folder as long as you mount the system and select install zip from sdcard.
I was wondering if someone with all the stock apks could post them on a link for download. I'm unable to complete the Samsung update and I believe it's because I have some of the stock apks removed.

Here is a file with all the bloatware, but you need to use TiB in order to restore it...

Do I need the premium version? I can't figure out how to restore apps with .gz files.
No you don't, just copy ALL the files into the Titanium Backup folder, then launch TiB. If you scroll to the bottom, you should see all the apps with lines through them. click them,and then hit restore, easy as pie.

I feel like an idiot because this should be easy but I'm having issues. When I click the slashed out name of the app I want to install I don't have a restore option. I've tried running batch commands to do the install but that also doesn't work. I have BusyBox installed. Ideas?
Have you tried clicking the button that says "Problems?" yet?

So the directory SDX uses for restores is '/sdcard/sdx/backup/app/' but this directory doesn't exist. I've tried creating this directory and placing my .gz files in there with no luck. Any other ideas?
Google it, install the app, run it, navigate to /sdcard/sdx/backup and put all the bloat there, unmount your sd card, open the app again and find the restore option, check them all and hit restore, accept the superuser permissions, and your done. Then you can update with the update.zip I posted in the android development section for DL17.

I've completed all these steps. However, when SDX installs it doesn't create the backup directory. I've tried manually creating this directory, placing the bloat I want to restore in the directory, and searching for the bloat via SDX but nothing shows up.
I'm having the same problem with Titanium Backup. TiB shows the bloatware I want to reinstall but doesn't actually have an option to restore.
Its been forever since ive used it its probally a diffrent folder name...just delete the folder you made go into the app and vackup an app then the directory will br on the sdk card delete the apk in there and place the bloat there and restore.

Well I realized why I couldn't see the bloat I wanted to restore in SDX. It's because SDX backups files as an .apk. The bloat I have is .gz backed up from TiB. I don't have original .apk's for the bloat I deleted only the .gz's from TiB. I still can't understand why TiB won't allow me to restore the apps with .gz's. It shows them on the list but there is no restore option.
Anyone knows where can the backup folder be? I searched on CWM folder but it's not there. I'm trying to move the backup files to my computer.

I had cwm made many backups and just changed to twrp but my internal storage is all filled up and I cannot field the previous backups to delete... Any help?
I am having this same problem too and am searching for solution... I have asked all over the forum and also googled but to no avail. Help please....
Need to search harder...

But my /data folder is empty. I use root explorer and couldn't find anything in /data folder. Was previously looking for WPA_supplicant for my ap list also....
I am currently using root explorer and es explorer v3. ES explorer v3 doesn't have the root settings. I'll download the stable version from play store and try.
Update : I've got it working. This means only es explorer can see CWM backup and wpa_supplicant

Yes it does as I'm using it! Seriously, follow EVERY instruction on my post and look at the pictures
I did some testing on my own. Root explorer works too. Just need to toggle r/w from root location. Data folder populated after that. As for the latest es explorer v3, toggling root explorer will enable data folder contents to be viewed.

So my stock messaging app decided ton leave my device and not come back. Could someone please pull theirs off of their device and post it so I can place it back on to my device. And would there be a special way to put it into the system apps folder or can I just stick it in there using root explorer?
Thanks

Reflashing works. Or if you have a deodexed zip take it out there *extract it* then just put it on your phone and through root explorer put it in the system/app. Reboot usually helps to make sure it comes back.

Im just using go sms I like it better anyways, I dont know why it left but honestly I dont care anymore because go sms is so much nicer.
recently noticed i am unable to open the device storage setting on my rooted kfhd7. initially thought it was a bug with go launcher ex as it has a few issues with menu settings in its new update but since trying other launchers including stock i am still unable to select storage settings. anyone else had this issue?
thanks

Make sure you still have /system/app/MediaProvider.apk, that it is not corrupted, and that you have not frozen or disabled "Media Storage" using Titanium Backup or a similar app.
thanks. mediaprovider.apk is still in /system/app and mediastorage looks ok in tit backup. unsure if either are corrupted but size of the apk is 22kb.
Sent from my KFTT using xda app-developers app
You can copy it and rename the apk to .zip then open it... if it opens it is probably not corrupt

was just about to copy it to my computer and can see another file in system/app called mediaprovider.odex.
would this be the cause of the problem? this other file
is 120kb
