Well DCIM folder will recreate itself doesn't matter how many times you delete it. It is a system generated folder belongs to your Camera which stores everyshot taken by your camera in itself and that is by default.

Yes,but my question is about this file in 'DCIM folder. Even after I changed the camera storge to "external memory",this file is created by it self in phone sd"in internal memory".

Delete the big file

.thumbdata3--1967290299

In its place create an empty FOLDER
called

.thumbdata3--1967290299

I have done this and now I dont
have an ever increasing file. Everything seems to stil work.

If you want
to go back, delete the folder and reboot.
