Glad atleast the default gps folder worked. Thats a start.
Now, First when you mention fileexplorer in eclipse. I hope you are
using the fileexplorer from within the emulator and not creating the
/data/misc/location directory, because thats the mistake initially
which I made.
Also, I wouldn't remove the gps directory because I think when android
starts up it looks for that directory and some of the exceptions you
are seeing might be related to that.
Instead what you should do is create a folder called test in
data/misc/location and move content of gps directory in there and see
if that works.
