It isn't android,my android folders still there, hopefully this upload helps
Have you tried Root browser or ES File explorer or similar?
Whats in your Android folder , data obb should be in it. Phone maybe created a new Android folder when u renamed the old one.
Looking at the date of your Android folder it seems to have been modified today.
I checked the android folder it just contains the data folder.

Hi Folks
I hope someone can help me out here...
I recently cleaned out my rooted DHD with Titanium backup, removing all Vodafone branded crap in there, but i accidentally also removed HTC Music, lol
Fortunately i made a nandroid backup with CWM, but I'm unable to browse the content as it seems the .bin archive is not accessible/compatible with the standard compression tools (like winrar)
How do i access the archive, and where (what folder on my DHD) do i copy the HTC music .apk to when extracted?
Or can i just re-install the apk with HTC sync?
If it's not possible then that's OK as I'm using Poweramp at the moment.....
thanks in advance!
get a rooted stock rom with your base (1.32, 1.72...) , extract the htcmusic.apk from it and move it to your system/app with root explorer or adb
Thanks for your swift response!
I got hold of a stock ROM (from the development threads here) but have the same problem as with my nandroid backup.. i cannot open/browse the archive content.
Should i use some specific tool to be able to extract/browse the .img archives?
Here you go, extracted it from [ROM] LeeDrOiD HD v2.2.3 [Kernel] LeeDrOiD v2.2.9 .zip file instead of the stock .img, using 7-Zip program for Windows 7 PC. When using it, right click -> open archive -> System / App -> copy........
View attachment HtcMusic.apk
Extracting the apps from a custom ROM is the best and simplest way to do this.
If anyone needs to extract his nandroid backup though, unyaffs (http://code.google.com/p/unyaffs/) and cygwin (or a native Linux environment) will do the trick.
Thanks all for your advice and guidance.. i got HTC music back with both the methods mentioned here
At least i know now how to get in to the nandroid archive.
Cheers, R
Gents,
I need your help again...
Now I've managed to get HtcMusic.apk back to my system/app folder.
I've tried to push the .apk with ADB but that didn't work as the system/app folder was read only, so i had to copy the apk to the root my sd stick and move it to the proper folder with root explorer after i changed the folder to temporarily read/write.
But now the application doesn't show up anywhere on my phone - Like its invisible - I rebooted the phone but that has no effect as well.
I can only find it with root explorer.
How can i get it to work again?
Did you change the permissions to be the same as the other files in that directory?
yes i did, like all the other files in that directory: rw--r--r--
but to no effect
Did you try using package installer to install from the new directory or sdcard?

No i did not try that yet.. i just moved the apk. from my sd/root to system/app as advised here..
Sorry for the dumb question, but where can i find package installer?
edit: Ok i found i can install via root explorer, but it doesn't seem to work.. packet not installed, not even when i change the system/ap directory to read/write and change the apk permissions to r/w/x
Should i try to install the apk via HTC synch on my PC? (although i understood that it is not possible to reinstall sense apps this way)
Hi,
Has anyone an idea what i can try next?
perhaps fixing permissions in rom manager, or installing the .apk via recovery?
And I'm also wondering if the system/app directory is the correct folder where HTC Music goes (because there's also an /data/app and data/data folder where HTC apps reside).. Can someone check and confirm please?
thanks
I think it's safe to bump the thread as more that a month has passed.
Does anyone have an idea what to try next? All my attempts have failed so far.
Would also like to know if system/app is the correct folder where htcmusic.apk is installed as there's also /data/app and data/data folder where HTC apps reside
Ok, im a bit closer getting it to work.
I flashed HTC music in a zip file through CWM recovery - A guy from an Dutch Android revolution site made a zip and advised to flash it via CWM recovery - and the app is back.
the only thing is that it force_closes (com.htc.music stopped unexpectedly)
Fixing permissions through rom manager doesn't work either.
What can i do next?
p.s. HTC music version i'm using is 2.0.0000.278886 - So maybe it's an outdated version?

I'm running the MoDaCo Ir13 4.0.4 ROM.
I can't take screenshots the ICS way (power + volume) because the "Pictures" folder seems to be read only or locked.
With any file manager, i can't write to, delete from (the modaco images folder), or rename anything in that folder.
Is there any way to fix this without reflashing the ROM?
Some people have renamed that folder and created a new one called pictures, which will work as it should.
The problem is you still can't delete the old folder even though you can rename it.

Thanks, thats worked.
I thought i tried renaming the MoDaCo folder inside the Pictures folder, and seem to remember it failing, but didn't think of renaming the original folder.
Does anybody know why it happens?
Hello, I installed a rom on my htc s one, miss the application location is very useful to me where I can find it?
I think it's somewhere in /system/apps folder I'm not sure what one you want but inside that folder find either "HtcLocationService.apk" or "LocationPicker.apk" or "Locations.apk" or "LocationsInstaller.apk"
ops ... sorry I realized now that I sbalgito section, I had to post one htc s! However, the same thing ...
else is not the system folder, you can not find location ES I use file manager.
Hi,
I've been flashing some Custom Roms which have the multi-user feature found in the nexus 7.
And whenever i flash these roms, it creates a new folder called "0" containing many different folders.
I have about 6 or 7 of these folders now and my folder structure is messed up.
Is there a way i can fix all this?
Thanks in advance.
This happens on 4.2 ROMs. Not sure on the specifics but apparently its the way the new file system works.
It transfers all the files normally under SD to a folder called SD/0 as you found.
What I've been doing is just cutting and pasting all the folders inside the folder 0 back onto the root of the SD card lol.
Not sure if there is a better method

in slim file manager or rom toolbox, if i copy a folder to a location that already has a folder with that same name, both apps will just append a number to the end of the copied folder. ex: if i copy folder "New" to a location that already has a folder called "New", then it'll copy the new folder over but will rename it as "New-2".
instead, i would like it to just merge the files from the old location to the new location and/or overwrite the old files instead of created another folder. i know i can do this just within windows, but windows is slow and it's faster to transfer stuff around on the sdcard from the phone itself.
Es file explorer.... Allows me to merge folders. Copy/cut, paste.
As for the items in the folders, it will overwrite if they have the same name.

I really like the app Solid Explorer (Play Store link). It has a great interface and has the functionality you requested. It is a paid app, but extremely worth its money.
