[Q] Folder for Application Files

hi,
is there some way to make applications use a user defined folder for their (temporary) files?
I'm using cynanogen mod 7 and in my sdcard folder i have a lot folders created by applications i've installed. but since i never need these folders it would be great if they'd be in a subdirectory (like sdcard/appFiles/dropbox)
right now i have directories called gameloft, dropbox, ezPDFReader, tapatalkxda_download, etc.
they clutter my sdcard folder and make it less nice to look at.

[Q] Trouble creating obb folder

Hi,
So a few days ago i wanted to put files in the obb folder to install some apks. However, when i connected it to my computer, I didn't see any obb folder, so I tried creating one. But every time I tried to create the folder the device kept disconnecting. I have tried creating the folder with USB debugging off and on, with a rooted phone as well as a non-rooted phone, from my computer and from file managers on the phone, but nothing works. What is strange is that when i create the obb folder from a file manager on my, it does create it and i can go into it and i can see the obb of many apps there, but as soon as i come out the folder, the folder vanishes. Someone help please?
obb Folder
Hi there, I had the same problem, but I think the new moto X used the folder Data instead of obb, thats the solution I found for me.

Yes I have the issue. May be a root access thing... I'm missing root
First off obb is not a file, its a directory. If the obb folder doesn't exist, create the folder. The game data goes in the obb folder.
You cannot access it @iwebsource. Nor can you create it.
Odd. Usually the /Android/ directory on the internal sdcard is writeable. On the nexus 5 it is anyways.
I'll check it out when my Moto X arrives
It is odd. When we get root access, all will be good then. Debloating of this will occur in the most aggressive way. Dang big red
I have the same problem, cant see the obb folder, when i try to create it it says that a folder with the name is already there(i have root) my solution till someone was:
create a obb folder somewhere else,
put all your obb folder example: obb (main folder)>>abc.com.l2(folder)>>file.obb
copy the obb main folder and paste it in /android/
select override

Just add this path in the "windows" in ES File Explorer:
/sdcard/Android/obb
Done!

What's the difference of /sdcard/ to /storage/emulated/0/ folders?

I have MI5 with Global 8.2|stabe (8.2.2.0)
In gallery I see a folder twice:
1. Contacts which in folder: /sdcard/Images/
2. Contacts_32 which in folder: /storage/emulated/0/Images/
Why is it? How can I delete one of them with losing it all? I don't want to delete one of them because a few month ago I deleted a duplicate folders and I lost it forever (both).
I had mi cloud earlier and this folder kept in cloud but it's not anymore...
Thanks in advance,
Dome

Android is built on virtual file paths, which means different paths can contain the same files because it leads to the same place on your storage. Does it make sense now?
Actually no, it's not make sense because these "duplicate folder" aren't identity: one folder have some other files which doesn't exist in the other folder... And both folders appear to me in my gallery (which annoys me to see "duplicate" folders)
