I cant move files from Internal and to External SD on my O2x . When ever I try the file manager reports the move failed. I have tried with both Astro File manager, and ES File Manager and both reports its failed and cant do it.
Can someone tell me what the hell is wrong?. It doesn't make sense cause I can copy and paste between the cards, but have to delete the original which is rather tedious. I would prefer the move would just work and I suspect its something LG has ****ed up since it work on other phones >_<.
ES File has even got root access and still fails .
So does anyone have a solution that might work?
Same with me to. I use Androzip
Try using root explorer yet?

Well its an paid app so no. And ES File supports root as well and cant. Im not feeling for spending x amount of dollars on an app I am not sure will actually do what I want it to do. What if the developer does not want to issue me a refund?
I have this stupid bug too... on sgs
I have contacted the developers of es file and some others... they said we are going to check...
I impressed how irresponsible they can be, this is a basic function on file explorer..
Anyway only the build-in my files works for moving files, all others are trash, including root explorer.
Root explorer works just fine for me (moving files from/to internal to/from external).
Just downloaded es file explorer and it did not work.
Any news on a fix for this?

Root Explorer DOES NOT WORK. I tried it and it while it shows no failure messages all my files remain in the same places and nothing gets moved.

I have the original Droid phone. Thus, to tether it to my CN I need to get the CN able to work with Ad-Hoc. I had come to the conclusion the only way to accomplish this was via the ADB shell. The problem is I cannot get ADB to work.
So, that being said, and before I bury another 4 or 5 hours into this, is there another way to get my CN working with my Droid?
Yes, you can do it on your nook using certain apps. I've done it with Root Explorer(paid app), which allows you to alter/replace/change permissions on any system file. Other file manager type programs might be able do this too, maybe even some free ones, but the only one I can verify is root explorer.

Do you mind posting instructions, or a link to how you did it? I have this exact same situation as the OP (Droid 1/NC).
"Easy Tether" for rooted Droid phones works perfectly for me. It's a Market download and free -- creates an infrastructure network the CN can see and use rooted or unrooted. Rooting your phone (if not already) is pretty quick and easy as compared to rooting the Nook. I have a Droid X.
I have both easy tether and root explorer. Easy tether will not work as it requires a cable connection.
Can you explain what i need to do with root explorer?

Place the patched wpa_supplicant file from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=868354 somewhere on your sdcard.
Open Root Explorer and navigate to the file on the sdcard.
Copy the file.
Navigate to system/bin
Mount R/W
Rename your original wpa_supplicant file to wpa_supplicant.bak
Paste the new file. (make sure the name is as the original)
Reboot your nook.
Thank you so much!!! Worked great!

Hmmm, won't start wifi at all now. When I pasted the new file should the name be wpa_supplicant or wpa_supplicant.adhocfix? I used the former.

Clarify this step for me. Im confused at reading this.
You say to copy then rename original file, then paste. By original file do you mean the one on the sdcard and not the one being pasted?
Could i just pasti into system/bin , and then rename that file? Im just trying to clear this up?

Yes. You could just paste then rename the wpa_supplicant.adhocfix to wpa_supplicant. I wanted you to renam the original file in your system/bin to wpa_supplicant.bak so you woul have a backup of the original just in case something goes wrong.

went home and did this. THANKS!!!! Saw my IP4 MYWI network right away.
It works!! Thanks!
Under 1.1 I found that the ADHOC supplicant was so infuriatingly unstable it was almost unusable, and the lack of reconnect on wakeup was such a pain. this has been the major benefit of moving to Froyo for me - adhoc is seamless.
Hi Im almost done with it but I'm not sure how to rename the file. I'm using root explorer for some reason ADB is not pushing the file. I'm running 1.1 on my nc. I'm in root explorer and I got all the way to copy the file mount r/w and then i'm stuck.
Please help. I'm so close.
Hey bono quick ? when you use froyo is it on the sd card or is on the nook itself. I'm not sure how to get that far. I'm mad because I can't get these files right so that I can connect to my wireless tether through my phone. I'm so close. I finally got ADB to work but I can't push the files to the nook. I'm so lost right now.
Hi guys, I have a problem with my I9000, when I try to copy a MOD or someting to System/app for example, I can't paste bcoz I don't have enought space to paste in that folder...
Sorry for my english.. and I hope someone help me..
Best thing to use root explorer and go to that folder.You can see if the folder is mounted as read only(ro) or read write (rw).And you can see how much space do you have in that folder.If you have enough space mount system/app as rw and you can copy files to it.
Find root explorer on market best for working with files.

Don't think it'll work on our device. And if it did work for the fascinate you would prolly need to be on a touch wiz rom as well.

What Chopper said could be true. At any rate try this:
Long press on your file
Hit extract
Go to the extracted folder
Long press on your extracted file
Hit move or copy
Navigate to system /app folder
Hit the system rw if necessary
Paste the file

Anyplace I do the long press in system/app there is an app that it thinks I'm wanting to do something with and I don't get the paste option. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Okay so I figured out how to paste it and it wasn't allowed. No I can't find the apk at all. I have even cleared cache and tried to re-download and I get the Ballero-2.apk actually I am up to Ballero-5.apk and can find none of those either.

Es file explorer is not as consistent when it comes to giving you root access, which is what you need to paste in system, app. Imo, root explorer is a must.
Edit; although I read that you can obtain that permission somewhere in the es file explorer settings

Where is th update. Zip file located
I creaed update.Zip file but im not able to find it
Its located in /sdcard
i still not able to find it
when you create the update.zip file, and it's finished, the notification bar will have a notification about the path, check that. If it's not there, may be the zip was not created successfully.
/mnt/sdcard/update.zip
Was this solved? I can't find the file either.. it's not in the root of the sdcard, I've tried to create it twice and searched for it. Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks.
dont you get a notification of completion of the process and when you pull it down, you can see where its located ?
I'm having the same problem. If I look with root explorer, it exists on the root of the SD, but I can't see it in windows? Maybe it's a 2GB file limit thing or something?
but the update.zip is not more than 4MB

Answering my own question - its definitely located in the root, just not visible in Windows no matter what I do. Use a root explorer to grab it and move it to a flash drive or remote network location, that's what I did and it worked great.

I used wifi file transfer. I was able to download the file from there.
I had this problem. Try simply unplugging your phone from the USB cord, wait 5 seconds, then plug it back into your PC. Your PC should now see the update.zip.
One of common prob's with MTP !!
just do a search in root explorer, i got 4 locations of the same file on my galaxy s3 so you can find it in anyone of those.
and yes it is the same file in all of those locations, i even tried to change the name on one of them to check if all of them changed and they did
/data/media/0/update.zip
/mnt/sdcard/update.zip
/mnt/shell/emulated/0/update.zip
/storage/emulated/0/update.zip
Move the file out of the root directory and put it a folder, any folder. It will then show up on windows.

This worked for me! Although I used the stock file manager. After moving the update.zip to another location using file manager, I was able to see the file via Windows as well.
just change the file name and retry. worked for me

Hello everyone,
I just upgraded to 4.3 from 4.1.2 for the first time.
When in recovery I can view all of my original SD card files (prior to upgrade) when I select the "choose zip from SD card" option. However, when I plug my phone through USB to view my SD card contents there's an entirely fresh file structure which does not include my personal files. I also tried through ES File Explorer and I still cannot view my old files. It only works through recovery.
Can someone please point me in the right direction to get my old files back? I know the file structure changed but I'm not sure how to go about migrating my old files.
I'm running InsertCoin with the latest T-Mobile Radio if it helps.

Use a program like ES file explorer or root explorer
Navigate to /data/media/0 and see if you see your files in there or data/media/emulated something like that

Thanks for the reply Charlie. I'm using ES File Explorer. There are no files or folders inside /data/. I checked /storage/emulated/0/ and /storage/emulated/legacy (not sure if that's what you meant) and they are not there either.
Nevermind, found it. ES File Explorer had hidden files turned off and root explorer off as well.
Thanks again!
