Why you want replace it???
It may create lots problems to you.. As it contains imei info..
Better to stay away from that folder.. Or do a backup of that folder before altering it..

Because I flashed CM10 and need to restore my IMEI.
Anway I fixed it on my own. I just pasted the contents of the EFS Folder and it worked!
Also I did have more than enough space, which is why I was confused
Hope this helps others who have the same problem.

[Q] LOST.DIR - what is that?

Simply put, it is a system directory for files that the file system check finds and believes has errors. It can be deleted and it will be recreated. If it is not taking up too much space it is better to just ignore it.

[Q] Root Explorer can't paste file to system

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.

An that not is one issue, Root explorer on the Gingerbread. Try delet file, and yes make it, but go another folder, and back on , you will see again deleted file, is not deleted !???

You will have to delete some unused system apps like aldiko or whatever you dont't use.

need (my files) app on captivate

does anyone know if there is a .tar file or something so i could flash the my files app on my cappy that usually comes on the cappy with the official firmwares? i just need some kind of file to do that because i dont like astro and es file manager, etc. even a link to somewere where this has been done before would help, thanks.
Why use that when the others have a **** ton more functionality? Like root file exploration.
Do you have any .tar stock firmware package? Open that archive with 7zip and go to /system/app and drag it out...then use a root file explorer (lolz oh the irony) to drop it in /system/app
Or use adb to push it there
Or get a theme cwm zip package and delete all the files out of the folders (not touching the meta-inf folder) and drop it in /system/app and flash that.

I did indeed LOL
hmm...i think im gonna get the cwm package and just do that, do you have any link on one of those, if not then how can i get or look one of those up?
any theme zip will do, just not a ROM zip that has a kernel and modem in it you don't need top flash the theme zips ate just system apk files you can delete out and add your apk in. Make sure only that apk is in it though.
Hold on...I'll hey you a link where i posted a test zip you can use.
Edit: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=22271929&postcount=1403
In that post is a cwm zip, open that archive with 7zip go to /system/app delete what's there and drop that apk in. Then flash that in recovery.
ya well it didnt work..
Ya well you give more detail we can help.... "It didn't work" isn't very helpful for trouble shooting...
it said that the installation was aborted
What version of cwm do you have?
Or are you on an aosp ROM?
Just use a root explorer, go in and unzip any file that has it in it, then go to the extracted folder, long press on it and hit COPY, then back out until your at SYSTEM and paste it, then look for the file in SYSTEM and long press on it and choose permissions, then change it so it matches the SAME PERMISSIONS in SYSTEM/APP, then once you have the permissions correct long press on it and move it into SYSTEM/APP and hit PASTE. them REBOOT the phone and it will be in there and working. NO NEED to try flashing it in cwm. This MAY sound like a lot of work but it is VERY EASY AND FOOL PROOF.

OI File Manager. Looks almost exactly like my files.
Ok rockratt...first of all...when i tried putting the file in system...
It said failed, and also what do you mean to fix the permisions?
Sent from my SGH-I897 using XDA App
It failed because you need to mount that partition r/w instead of the default r/o...should be an option for that on the root file explorer you used.

As studacris said make sure to set it to read/write. When using ROOT EXPLORER you will see a button towards the top the probably says MOUNT R/W click on it and then paste it to SYSTEM( the reason I say to paste it to SYSTEM first so you can change the apparently permissions before moving it into SYSTEM/APP since it will ask to overwrite a version of itself if it is already there. To change the permissions just long press, choose permissions, then click the appropriate boxes to make it have the correct permissions before placing it in.

Pasting to /system and Changing permissions shouldn't be needed.
And if it is..boot into recovery, go to advanced, and fix permissions

as far as i know, .dumbster is the file generated by the play store app Dumpster Recycle Bin. This app is used to restore files that you have previously deleted. Its like a buffer space.. When you delete a file from your phone, Dumpster will copy it to this location so you can restore it later. Uninstalling Dumpster Recycle Bin should solve your issue. Deleting this file means that you will no longer be able to restore files accidentally deleted.
diffrent question
alrent you are awsome man. Could you help me ?
