Abstract
A mobile terminal and a method for managing a file system thereof are provided. The method of managing a file system of a mobile terminal having a battery cover and a battery cover coupling unit includes sensing an interruption of contact at a portion of a contact area between the battery cover and the battery cover coupling unit, generating a metadata list including metadata on data to be synchronized from among data cached in a volatile memory, after the sensing of the interruption of contact at the preset portion, sensing an interruption of contact at another portion of the contact area between the battery cover and the battery cover coupling unit after the previous sensing, and storing the metadata of the metadata list in a non-volatile memory, if the interval between the sensing operations is less than or equal to a threshold value.
