== File System Structure ==== File System Overview ==Some people are using a "media" intermediary directory between the standard public directory and the storage root.  See below * /sdcard/media/alarms OR /sdcard/Alarms * /sdcard/media/notifications OR /sdcard/notifications* /sdcard/media/ringtones OR /sdcard/ringtones* /sdcard/media/ui OR /sdcard/uiWarning: This may be incorrect.  Below is from the Android developer's reference explaining the correct way.&nbsp;=== App Installation path ===Preinstalled applications are in /system/app folder. User installed applications are in /data/app #    /data/app#    /data/app-private#    /system/app/#    /sdcard/.android_secure (shows .asec files, not .apks) On Samsung phones: /sdcard/external_sd/.android_secure In Android 7.0 and before, after an APK is installed, it will be located in /data/app path.  In Android 7.0, the APK file will be installed into the /data/app/<package name>-<num>/ folder, where the <package name> is the package name of the APK, and the num may be 1 or 2.  /data/app/com.king.candycrushsaga-1/base.apk == File System Tree == {{:Afs:Android File System Tree}}
