Huawei specific OS flavour creating weird files in my files folder

Latest reply: Nov 10, 2020 12:15:36 842 1 0 0 0

Basically, I need to save some files in my app. For that, I use the directory returned by getFilesDir() method.

This works fine, but on some devices (I know at least two), files named hw_cached_resid.list or aware_learning_data appear in this folder. Why is this happening and how to avoid this?

UPDATE: Google search revealed nothing, but GitHub code search luckily found one reference of hw_cached_resid.list. Turns out, it's from some (decompiled!) Huawei firmware, more specifically - com.huawei.iaware app.

Huawei's documentation says the Huawei Mate 9 uses something called iAware System, a machine learning platform that learns your usage and preempt changes between apps as well as pre-loading frequently used apps.
