Where is the trash bin located?

I'm just wondering where everything I delete on the device goes? I just got Resco explorer, and it found a recycle bin, but it seems to be empty??
I know I've deleted files and such so I'm just wondering where they may have gone.
There is also a folder on my storage card, /Storage Card/.Trashes
It has about 9mb of files on it. Is that a folder where all the things I delete from the storage card goes?

You can have a 16Gb memory card but the /System folder is actually part of your data.img so will have a limited size. It's also a vital part of the Android subsystem so messing about in there can break everything.
If you want to copy files into it, the easiest thing to do is hook up your phone via usb and use Droid Explorer or a similar ADB file system utility.

so basically i need to change the image from 1gb to 2gb from the startup
and the system folder will change aswell?
and im copying apk files to app folder
but cant put to many because room limit

That may not work, I am pretty sure the System folder has a limited size (think of it as a partition, rather than a folder). Someone else maybe able to correct me on that though...

The folders are maked by the apps,there are some cached files and data files.By deleting them,the apps data may be deleted.
Here .gps folder maked for yours gps datas and the svox for pico.tts app,which controlles the text to speech settings.By deleting them you will not have any major problem.But the datas for the apps will be deleted.And you have to download the text to speech data files one more time,if you delete svox folder.

Can't see the photos in Internal Storage

My album app doesn't show the images that are located in phone's internal storage. All I can see are the photos in SD card. Help?
I am using Xperia Z3 Compact

Force stop app, clear cache/data.
Also check if there is file called .nomedia in your internal storage's DCIM directory

Nope, already tried. Didn't work.

this works
steps to follow
1.Make new folder in sd card or internal storage
2.Rename it to media
3.Make a folder inside this folder "media" and rename it to "pictures"
4.Move all photos inside the folder "pictures"
5.reboot
done
bonus:Also if songs not showing in walkman,make folder named audio inside media,move songs inside audio

Enable the option to view hidden files on the file Explorer. Now browse to the root of the internal storage and delete that .nomedia file. You should get you're files back.
You could also use a PC to see that the files are actually there.

Ask in the appropriate place....in the K3 Note Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting section.
seriously...a .nomedia isn't an app or a script which can delete any file...its just a freaking empty file.
your files are safe...
