where is this cache folder everyone speaks of????

You have to be rooted and use a file explorer that has root access. /cache is in the root directory which isn't visible unless you have root.

I do have root access and I tried copying the file over and i was denied access. however, I just installed ROM manager and ran a file permissions fix. hopefully that'll work.

im going to upload a screenshot.

Go to the settings of your folders app and make sure it is allowed to show root. They aren't automatically set up to do that. And depending on your program you have to get read/write permission.

I dont have that option available to me.

Im going to attempt to push the update via ROM Manager - CWM... Ive read on another thread that this is another work around.

no joy! how would I change the permissions of the /cache folder?

 

[mannybz]

fyi I'm on GB 6.13.219

 

[mannybz]

Can anyone tell me how I can gain access to the cache dir? i have root, I've used CWM and fixed permissions and no joy.

Try "file explorer" from the market. In settings set for root access and write.

I am in Thailand trying to do this. Without a Verizon SIM card I cannot access the phone. So when I do the steps to keep root I cannot install the apps.

Is there a work around?
