Where are patches stored internally on the Pre?

BdotR · 09/16/2010, 12:46 AM

I'm trying to back up the directory where all my patches that I have on my device are stored, but I have no idea where they are stored. I'm trying to go through with Internalz and copy the dir to media/internal so I can in turn store it on my PC.

Does anybody know the directory where they are stored?

I have never used to restore patches my self but the Save/Restore app you can download from Preware and it will work. Also the save/restore app stores all data in the usb portion of your phone , to transfer to computer to put in usb mode and pull off files/folder.

It's better to use the saved package list in preware and then save/restore to save it to media partition to copy to PC, than to try to save the patches themselves to your PC.
