Question Android Unix query

[Amy_44]

Hi everyone,

I'm hoping for some Unix experts to sort this cafuffle. Recently, I was looking through documents on my phone and discovered a txt file named project.txt in the folder. Unfamiliar, I opened it in Docs and all it showed was:

Unix 3.10.49.12476963

Can someone tell me exactly: why is Unix code appearing on my phone and what this code is, please? I've googled it but no dice. I don't really need speculation. If you can, I also need to know the root of this document and how to delete it (if it's necessary - not the document).

Thank you.

Well Android was made from linux which was based on unix so running with that i suspect this is just a note on the linux kernal that was used. 3.10 was a big update for linux a few years ago. I don't know if this doc just never got purged or if this is what your android is built from.

I'm on Android 6 and this is the first I've seen of it in the folder and I was only in it a week or so ago. Why would it appear now if it was an update a few years ago? I'm just trying to make sense of this. Thank you for your reply!

Do you have a Samsung device?

"12476963" shows in quite a few places, referring to firmware.

Yes, I'm on Samsung. I made the error of entering the whole number and not the first three.
