I'm running stock Moto G4 plus firmware (Android 7.0, Nougat) on my XT1644 with TWRP 3.1.1-0 recovery, ElementalX 1.04 kernel and root with SuperSU 2.82. I'm not sure how relevant the android version is because I've noticed the same thing on every build of stock android version with root that I've tried so far.
When I go into the TWRP directory within android using a file explorer (I've tried Root Browser File Manager, ES File Explorer, Root Explorer), I can never see any of the contents of the TWRP folder. I can get into the TWRP folder, but it is just empty. The only way I can get access to the contents of the TWRP folder is to mount the phone's drive in TWRP. Also, when an OTA update downloads, I go to the cache folder in root to look for it but it is not there. I'm guessing it's the same issue that's preventing me from seeing the OTA file. However, I can't access the root directory through TWRP's mounting so I cannot grab the OTA file at all.
Is this the intended behaviour? I can see the contents of these folders on my Nexus 5. Is there any way to change/fix this?
