just1morefile Posted August 17, 2014 Report Share Posted August 17, 2014 Please help. My tablet crashed and needed to have a factory reset. I have reinstalled utorrent and would like to keep seeding the files I downloaded (and backed up) prior to reset. How do I re discover my files. I have tried simply placing the files in utorrent folder, but nothing. I have not changed any of the file names, and I have no idea where(which torrent site) the files came from.Please help as I dont want to be a parisite.

Kitsoran Posted August 17, 2014 Report Share Posted August 17, 2014 Well if you can't fix it you can't fix it. Do you have the .torrent files? You need to load those and then get uTorrent pointed at the same location. And then hopefully it checks them and starts seeding just like the PC client.

just1morefile Posted August 17, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 17, 2014 Would it work if I download the same torrent to the same location where the files are already present? And does it matter which torrent site I use to re-download?I can't check this method until tomorrow as I have been speed limited by my ISP until tomorrow..Where are the .tor files kept in android 4.2+? If I can find those I might be able to point utorrent at the existing files?maybe....! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kitsoran Posted August 17, 2014 Report Share Posted August 17, 2014 If you did a factory reset those files should have been deleted. The torrent site doesn't matter, as long as the .torrent contains the same exact file information (same infohash). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GFawkes Posted September 25, 2014 Report Share Posted September 25, 2014 Factory reset doesn't always mean that your storage is formatted. If you have not formatted the storage, you may be able to find the downloaded file. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
