Well, I'm quite tired and I still can not find a solution to this ... the problem is I can not delete any folder in the folder TWRP backups :/ here the strange thing is that you can not change anything inside this folder or create files ... and I tried several file browsers and nothing so far the only solution was to remove them from the same TWRP recovery and it´s the only way to delete this files...
but my question is: Anyone have any idea why it happens? I'm the only one who does this happen? i use the 2.7 twrp recovery, an 4.4.2 stock...
sorry for my bad english
The problem is the stock kernel, i change the kernel to Civato, an now i can delete and modify this folder :good:

Hello,
(My rom is based on stock "Acer_A500_0.000.00_4.010.42_EMEA_GEN3")
I have been building a custom rom for the A500. Everything has been going well. I removed most of the bloatware and added more features, but I have an issue that I have been unable to resolve.
When the custom rom(and the original stock) is flashed on the A500 there are several apps that are extracted to following folder. (On the device itself)
/system/vendor/app/
APKInstaller.apk
CheckerLunch.apk
FixWifi.apk
KoboAcer.apk
xt9.apk
While most these apps are OK, I want to remove KoboAcer.apk from the rom. But when looking for KoboAcer.apk at "\update\system\vendor\"inside the rom, its not there.
There is no app folder inside the vendor folder, just a dummy file inside the vendor folder called fake.txt
So my question is…
How do I remove KoboAcer.apk from the rom file?(No, I do not want to manually remove apps from the device after the flash).
Where is KoboAcer.apk being installed/extracted from during the flash process?
Any help would be appreciated
Thanks!
OK, I found KoboAcer.apk’s location, but I still don’t know how to remove it. By analyzing a backup of the ROM, I discovered that KoboAcer.apk is located in the flexrom (flexrom.img). My problem, is that I don’t know how to unpack flexrom.img and repack it without KoboAcer.apk
Could a ROM developers help me? I am stuck with the flexrom and I can’t find a tutorial/post.
Thanks!
Try to remove if using Titanium Backup.

easiest way to is restore your nandroid backup you made before you flash the mod
What I hear you cry - I have no nandroid backup!!
Well now you are going to have to do things the hard way
unzip the mod
look at all the files in the mod
now unzip your rom zip
replace all the files in the mod with the ones from your rom zip
rezip the mod
flash it in cwm with system mounted

@marcussmith2626: Dude, its only hard for noobs.
@abhishekr700: I can't help you when you choose to be a noob. You can follow marcussmith2626 if you want to restore your backup files.
If you don't need to restore or if you have not created a backup, then download stock ROM for your phone and flash it with odin.
There are lots of tutorials to flash it with odin. So don't ask me how to do so.
Press thanks if I helped you.

you can try this:
look in the theme for which files it have and then choose this files but from your current romzip or themezip what you used before you flashed the theme and replace it with the ones you didnt need on your phone,when you didnt have some files than its your fail,because a NANDROID BACKUP is allways recomned before doing changes in anyway
Recommend
Only odex version of the stock rom produce these kind of force close problems.
Try to flash deodexed stock rom. It will solve all the force close issues.
But the only problem is that it occupies more memory.
You can even extend your internal storage either by partitioning the sd-card or by swapping method.
Feel free to PM me if the problem doesn't get solved.
Press thanks if I have helped you.

Hey all, like the title said, I need to recover some files from a TWRP backup. But I do not want to flash the backup. I changed the extension to .tar and was able to browse just fine, but am unable to find the home folder which is where the files I need were stored. Specifically Storage\Emulated\0\ProgramData but of course this path doesn't exist since it's essentially little more than a link to the real path, so where would I find the correct path in a twrp backup? Thank you for any advice or help!
Anyone can help me on this?
When ever i do a backup image using cwn is succesful.
But when i flash other ppl rom then try to flash back to the old image that i backup i have problem.

I saw the file but when i click it it say no files found.
Pls someone help me.
Hi,
You can try with Philz Recovery instead of CWMRecovery.
You can also try to open your backup file on PC to see if there is some files inside
Hello,
Yes I know this is a DUMB question but when I used to flash my other phones I physically had an SDcard in it and knew if my files were on it. I have been having nothing but issues with my experience lately and am getting past each part carefully.
I am wondering where on the file structure the files need to be as in when I do a FULL wipe in recovery I do not wipe the files.
I have attached my screenshot, I take my files from the download folder and put them in the / to me what would be considered the root folder.
It then looks like it is called an emulated folder. I just wanted to verify this does not get wiped from TWRP.
Thanks!
I keep everything rom related in a directory called ROMs in /storage/emulated/0. Everything in my rom directory is retained after a full wipe.
Btw, it's a smart question.
OK, thanks I appreciate the response.
Now I just need to figure out why I was having so many problems installing a custom ROM.
