Hey folks,

After flashing Franco r26 in TWRP Recovery, I noticed a handful of red text (errors?) saying "E:Unable to stat '/data/data/path-to-application/cache/etc'", mostly from Skype, Facebook, and Textra. These files/folders did not exist on my phone anymore...they all seemed to be cache files and non-critical. I wonder if these disconnects are from when my phone randomly rebooted a few times on 38R and R25. The only info I was able to find on "E:Unable to stat" errors were for mountable partitions that did not exist. Does anyone know how to fix this issue other than wiping my whole phone? I figure the phone is comparing my /data folder with a list, but why does the system care about cache folders? Should I even be worried about these errors?

Thanks,
Mike
