Any ideas?

If this is in the wrong spot please move it still new to the forum and i never know where to post. I need to know how to remove apk files from \system\app i want to remove flash from the froyo leak so i can install from the market to fix the lag. I tried using astro but it wont let me still trying to learn all this its so much different from my incredible that i was used to
Try Root explorer.
i just tried with root explorer says it cant the file is read only any other suggestions im lost here. If i can figure this out then i can fix my other problem changing my browser to the debinged one as well it wont let me rename it either saying i dont have the proper permissions to rename it to add the other browser.
Click the button in the top right of root explorer that says mount r/w
your a life saver man it worked i owe you
I am trying to find where my apps are saved to in my phone using astro file manager, but I cannot find many of my apps. Running CM7.0.2 bell htc desire z.
There are several in system/apps but not the ones I am looking for, also some in mnt/asec but again, not the ones I am looking for.
if I into settings - applications, the apps I am looking for are under sdcard but they have no checkmark beside them, clicking on them gives me the option to move them to sd card, and if I do that they then show up in mnt/asec, moving them back to phone and they cannot be found. I want these apps on my phone by the way, because they are widgets and go launcher.
And yes these apps run fine even when I cannot find them anywhere using astro. I have searched every file using astro and they are nowhere to be seen!
/system/apps
/data/apps
/data/app-private
is where they will be located
if you moved them to sd i think they are in a different locations
/data is empty
/system/apps has several, but missing all the ones downloaded from market
/mnt/asec has all the ones moved to sdcard.
Astro file manager can't see /data, get a root file explorer our use the command shell.

Astro cannot go into root directories. You need a file manager like Root Explorer to see into system folders.

Hey guys I have recently updated to froyobread v20 from racht's floyo 0.20. I have root explorer and many other apps on it. After the update root explorer becomes missing. I tried installing root explorer but it keeps FC after that. I do not have access to root explorer
The built-in Root Explorer in Floyo is located in /system/app, and the whole /system folder will be overwritten if you update your ROM.
So you can flash racht´s Floyo again or extract it with unyaffs and take the explorer out of it.
i had the same problem this morning when i installed v20... i think it was because i was trying to install an older version of root explorer so it didnt work. i then downloaded it from the market again and installed that one and it worked hope this helps
I'll attach my question here, because cannot yet post in development section (where normally I would put this): I've found following bug: tethering in v19 and v20 just doesn't work. Also, cannot use USB debuging, so no log attached. What did I wrong?
try using barnacle wifi tether for tethering. what do you mean uwb debugging doesnt work? what happens if you try to turn it on?
Hey guys.
First of all, sorry if this has been asked before. I googled a lot and searched here and couldn't find this particular problem.
My Nexus 4 is running stock 4.2. Unlocked bootloader, rooted and running ClockworkMod 6.0.1.9. Everything worked perfectly. My only problem right now is, after making a nandroid backup, I cannot see the clockworkmod folder anywhere on the phone when browsing either in windows or with ES File Explorer. I think by now I looked everywhere. Everything else in this regard seems to work fine, I can copy files, the other folders are all correct etc. I can also see and delete/restore the backup in CWM recovery. All I want is to see the folder to get it off the phone. Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.
You can find it in mnt/shell/emulated it is protected so you will need a file explorer that can give you root access. I use ES File Explorer.
Found it. Thank you very much.
Its also in /data/media/clockworkmod for whatever reason, hope this gets fixed soon.
Is there any way to copy those CWM backup folders to your computer? I tried to use Root Explorer to move the backup folders to the main sdcard/0 folder but I still cannot see it when I move the file Am I doing something wrong or is it not possible to move it to the sdcard/0?
Yeah I'm also still not too sure how to get it off the phone easily.

easiest way would probably be to just use the toolkit, unless you're opposed to such things.
Is this why ROM manager can't delte my backups? It seems them but I get an error saying "there was an error deleting your backup"
Edit: new update fixes this issue with ROM manager
man we need to get it move to a pc. i'd like to save some space since its our phone have maximum 12.9gb at our disposal.
btw, i tried Root Browser Lite to move it on sdcard area... operation failed
I had the same problem. My internal SD card just kept getting fuller and fuller with ClockwordMod. And, when I tried to copy the files from /mnt/shell/emulated/clockwork to my comp, and copy them back to the SD card to try and Restore, I ended up with corrupted files.
So, rather than fight it, I decided to wait until Clockwordmod recovery got its storage/mount point issues straightened out, and moved to the TWRP side of things. That has been seamless (once I got used to it).
I hope that they soon figure out the Clockwordmod issues; I liked having ROM Manager installed on past phones.
Btw, as an aside that is a little related, why, pray tell, are there so many mount points for the SD card? It's just weird.
just navigate the clockwordmod folder in your phone and copy it to the root of the internal memory.. connect the phone via usb into the computer and copy it
BY FAR, the easiest way is:

BY FAR the easiest way: in ROM Manager, Manage and Restore Backups>Download Backups>Open your desktop browser on the address informed by ROM Manager to download your backup.
Thanks to everyone, going to the directories works and the rom manager app is aware of the new cwm backup folder.
(i tried searching for similar threads... this was the only thing i can find sorta close)
i have the 16GB version, and i flashed CM10.1 M2 yesterday. i performed a wipe data so that i could start from fresh.
now i'm trying to restore app settings one at a time. the first one i tried to do was Nova Launcher.
i had connected my tablet to my computer, and copied over my backup to the following:
/Android/data/com.teslacoilsw.launcher/backup/
now when i go to Nova Launcher restore, it can't find it. it is looking for the backup in the following path:
/sdcard/data/com.teslacoilsw.launcher/backup/
so boot up Astro File Manager, and i found the following folders at the root level:
/sdcard/
/storage/emulated/0/
/storage/emulated/legacy/
/storage/sdcard0/
/storage/usbdisk/ (empty)
/usbdisk/ (empty)
the first 4 folders mentioned here all display the same files as if i was viewing them from my computer.
if i navigate to /Android/data/com.teslacoilsw.launcher/backup/ from any of these 4 folders, i'll see my Nova backup file.
i have no idea why Nova Launcher can't see my backup file to restore.
in a related note, i made a CWM nandroid. but when i go to /clockworkmod/ nothing is there except 2 hidden files (nomedia and settings). even tho from within CWM, it sees the backup.
-SOLVED-
in short, don't use Astro File Manager. i started to use ES File Explorer.
Look in /data/media/clockworkmod/backup for your backups.
when i go to the root level- /data/ this folder is empty.
(using Astro File Manager)
In Root Explorer or ES File Explorer you can navigate to /data/media/clockworkmod/backup. I don't know why Astro is not showing it, but I just checked in Astro and can't see it either. Astro is no longer listed as having root access after the latest updates. I can't add it in SuperSU. I think that's the problem for Astro.
yes! problem solved.
i didn't know Astro couldn't navigate to those folders anymore. stopped using that now.
on to ES File Explorer.
found where to put my Nova backups, and i found the CWM backups too.
