Sorry, I can't find how to delete this post. I am not even able to edit the Title, so people won't waste their time on this post.
Sorry again.
I received a Text message sent from an E-Mail and I was wondering if it was possible to find the individual file on the filesystem holding the metadata for the E-Mail.
If so, would I have to root the phone? And where would that file be located?
I'm a techie, so no need to warn me that I could hurt my phone or files - I'm only looking to READ, not WRITE, and I'd be making a copy of that file beforehand anyways and porting it to a PC in order to check it with whatever program is necessary to decrypt (Probably only need a hex editor, but if someone knows better, feel free to pass that information along, too )
Anyways, is it possible?
Thank you for your time.

You can get access to system files by using a file manager. To edit files, you need to root your phone.
If it is *.txt attachment that was attached in that mail, go to downloads and look for it.
Now, serious. Why so serious?
If you are looking to decompile that mail app, use APKTOOL to decompile. Search on xda for the links. :good:
The apk file can be found on the device in: /system/app/ here
If the apk file is odexed, then you have to first deodex it to make it as one apk file Search on xda for the tutorials. :good:
If you are asking to decrypt mails, ask NSA :laugh: :laugh: :silly:
I am a newbie here. So I don't know where that file is located exactly.
Press thanks if I have helped you.

Just to reiterate, the person sent me a TEXT. I open my text app and I read their text. I want to find the file containing that exact text. (Extra info, info you don't really need to know and MAY have confused you: The text was sent via an E-Mail... Meaning they logged into their E-Mail, typed my phone number, and my phone received a TEXT from that E-Mail address straight to my SMS inbox). I'm not sure if I was clear enough on that. But I am trying to open an SMS sent straight to my phone AS IF from another phone.
What did you mean why so serious? I'm just trying to seem professional in my question. Hate to confuse people. Also: Decrypying a file should a) not be necessary, but MAY be (still highly doubt it), and B) Does not require NSA lol. I can do it myself, and if not, I've got a buddy who could do it for sure. But ALL I'M TRYING TO GET is the "metadata" from the SMS that'll HOPEFULLY give me the metadata for the E-Mail.
Thanks for your time.
Solution
I think I have found a solution to your problem.
This is the absolute path to SMS and MMS DB on most android devices:
/data/data/com.android.providers/telephony/databases/mmssms.db
It is the file where these messages are stored.
I don't own this device but still I have posted the screen shots
I think you get what I am trying to say.
Press thanks if I helped
Hi all. This is my first post and no doubt my question will probably already have been answered so here goes. my Samsung GT-19100 keeps telling me that there is insufficient memory when trying to download. I have plenty of memory spare on the phone 10 gb actually on sd card. I have looked up for answers and seem to have found it, unfortunately I don't know how to go about it. The information I found is saying I need to delete the .odex file in the app data just don't know where to find this file. Any help is very much appreciated. Thank You so much to everyone that has read this. Thanks. Paul.

Is your phone rooted?
If yes, you need a file explorer or file manager like ES File Explorer , or any app like that to find and delete the app .odex file ...

Hi PinkLeviosa, Thank you so much for taking the time to reply to my post. The information you give doesn't register with me only because I don't understand your question "Is your phone rooted" or "file manager like ES File Explorer" I`m so sorry for not understanding this term please forgive me. Could you please explain in more simple terms. I feel I am in need of step to step instructions "doh" Thank You. Paul.

So, I see.. If you know jailbreaking in apple products, you already know rooting, but they have some differences, please take time to read here

ES File Explorer is a File manager it helps you to move,paste,open files such as .zip , delete files like .odex ... and at the same time its a Root Explorer, Provides access to the entire file system and all data directories, and allows the user to change permissions. You can only unlock its feature like root explorer if your phone is rooted, for more details in ES file manager look here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.estrongs.android.pop
So if you dont know what root is, but now you know, the chances are your phone is not rooted... so i think you cant do your process of deleting the app's .odex but if you please can you try this app i found while searching your problem but it moves the cache of google play store at your sd card and no root is needed... the link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.felipearon.marketfix
and one more thing try to clear the cache of your google play store, if still that one dont work, try this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2443267 , but i think it needs a root access..

My Realme 7 has a notification which reads:
"New system version downloaded. Install now!
RMX2155_11_A.78"
Where is it located within the filesystem?
Is it somewhere I can copy from on an unrooted device?
I'm assuming Magisk can use this to get it's 'boot.img' file & others may be interested in a copy too.
@alanthehat THREAD CLOSED as you've already created a similar one minutes ago:
I have a 'system upgrade', where is it?
