i personally use ES, its free and pretty much fully functional
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ArmanUV:
root explorer ftw.

ES and Astro work but I can't stand the UI.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lrs421:
Simple for me, "explorer" if you're not rooted and "root explorer" if you are. Both apps are by the same dev. Clean, intensive and ad free.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] olivierlee:
I use Total Commander which also supports root access.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] danger-rat:
You can change the UI on ES to look similar to Root Explorer, but the functionality in ES is by far greater...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] merge5:
Root explorer if rooted otherwise Astro.

My $0.02
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AdrianE46:
I use file expert and it's worked pretty well for me thus far + it looks really nice if you get the black theme :P
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Lambetts:
+1 for Es file explorer.

No intrusive permissions and its works well. And has root access. Nice app.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nistjepan:
I use lcg x-plore,used it on my nokia e55 in the past and it was great + its free
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jdbower:
I'm surprised there isn't more love for File Expert here. Root enabled plus you can transfer files via NFC and the price is right to boot.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pierreburel:
File Explorer is following the latest Android UI guidelines and look very good on ICS. It just need some work, like root and multiple files selection.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ArmanUV:
+1. I sometimes use file expert to access my sdcard. It looks gorgeous.

how?

I couldn't find any themes for it in the market. The app is clearly not updated for ics.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] danger-rat:
Agreed, it's not ICS themed, but I guess I was trying to say that you don't have to have all the gaudy background pictures that it comes with...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Falconn:
I´ve tried ES and Astro, but I found them ugly as hell. I cant understand those are the most popular file browsers for Android. On the symbian I used to use Xplore. It is also available on Android, but on the symbian it was much better. But still its better then ES and Astro together, the problem is it isn´t popular on android platform.

There is also Total Commander for Android, I think that will be the best. It is on it´s start-up phase, but it has a nice GUI for now and you can also set up file associations. It´s beta and not available on the market yet
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dj4n90:
It's pretty personal, like every question about what app 2 use

my favorits

ES File explorer

Total Commander

Root Explorer
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dannyfly:
root explorer is the best for developer phone :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MilkPudding:
Haha because their functionality makes up for the less polished UI.

If you don't need the app to have root access, AirDroid is a really good alternative. It's extremely easy to use and the GUI is mind-blowing for a free app.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rquinn19:
ES by far and I've used them all. Looks pretty good once I customize it a little. FTP LAN Bluetooth Root etc... what else can you need? forgot text editor and archived files
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Dictate:
Is it wrong that I enjoy the simplicity of OI File Manager? Beyond that, all I've really used is ES, or built in managers.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] loveubuntu:
edit: it seems like ES does the same too for free.

There is no discussion here. If you are on xda, you need root explorer. Pay for it once and enjoy. The only file explorer that can access everything.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] leonironchef:
Anyone here use or have heard of mkc file manager ? It's the "total commander" of the Android world imho
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] danger-rat:
What can it do that ES can't?

I can think of a lot that Root Explorer can't, though...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] loveubuntu:
edit: it seems like ES does the same too for free.

one thing, the only thing that matters: explores root (and the sd card)

All these explorers give you access to the SD card only. They show the /sdcard mount point. Root explorer gives you the / mount point and access to system, data, etc and other linux folders. This can be helpful when you need to access those folders. For example, the Nexus phones have this install-recovery.sh file that keeps re-writing the custom recovery back to stock recovery. You can use adb shell to rename the file and keep your custom recovery (CWR) or you can use the root explorer to erase/rename it to accomplish that. I don't know any other file explorer that does that. So save yourself reading this thread and pay for the root explorer. The only one you need.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] HeCareth:
I like ES because it allows me to play media files directly from the network which astro does not, ES also automatically scans your network for devices which makes it easier to setup LAN shares. Finally, ES has dropbox, box, and sugar sync support built in.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] loveubuntu:
but ES does not explore root. Just not enough. Won't show your apk files either.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hdXShade:
Root Explorer hands down
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] HeCareth:
You mean browse the root and show apks like this...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] loveubuntu:
hmmm :D How did you do that? My es does not allow to explore root?

never mind, got it, in setting. Nice, did not know that.

[General Questions and Answers] xbroadcaster1991:
Hi, I can download the attachment as a single file easily from my Hotmail account from different sources like browsers or emails apps.

The only thing frustrating me is the capability to download multiple attachments as a ZIP file which can be easily done when using hotmail on a PC. For instance, your friend sends numerous pics of his birthday party which weren't sent as a Zip file but hotmail compiles them online and allows you to download all of them in a single zip file.

Even the desktop version of hotmail website doesn't allow me this on various android web browsers. You can view the desktop version though.

Please help!
[General Questions and Answers] Dark3n:
Maybe its done through flash, and your browser doesn't offer that?
[General Questions and Answers] xbroadcaster1991:
My browser does have flash. My device is GT I9100.

I guess an app needs to be developed for this since I haven't seen one of this function.

Trust me many hotmail users would be thankful if an app is developed

Thanks.

so i am looking for a 2nd battery that i can charge externally meaning not on the phone but like a second charger source other than a dock help would be appreciative thanks.. :confused:
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Juroid:
Get one from ebay. They are cheap but does the job. Buy 2 just incase one breaks. If you want to go expensive way, get the OEM which comes with spare battery for around $40-$50. I have both but on ebay one, pins need to be set every time you insert the battery which is kind of pain. Also OEM charges little faster. As I said, even the cheap ebay ones will do the job.

I just use Checkrom revo with the ICS theme. GB with TW and ICS theme=perfect.
[Galaxy S II General] lovidore:
Haha, I'm digging this thread. And I'm gonna retweet this.
[Galaxy S II General] soulicro:
If TW is your thing, good for you :) I personally can't stand it. Still, you could pick up some parts of the guide - for example, the keyboard / live wallpaper / lockscreen.

Awesome! Glad you liked it :)
[Galaxy S II General] aasheet:
im no dev so just asking

isnt there anyway to use the ICS phone and contacts [including fav. category] in a gingerbread rom ?

cause thts 1 think i find to b really good , and the only visual things missing from the mods posted above

asking cause back when i owned a spica there was a frozen-eclair rom [froyo-eclair mix] , so mayb this can also b done ....
[Galaxy S II General] -A-P-M-:
I have similar on my phone, but I used GO Launcher with ICS theme and there you can get GO Locker, which is similar to ICS locker, but is free. Also GO Launcher with ICS theme on CM7.1 with ICS theme looks great, very close to real ICS.
[Galaxy S II General] soulicro:
Maybe there's a way, I'm not a dev either. But right now it's not available, and I think we would all rather the devs to work on the ICS port itself rather than porting apks to work in Gingerbread :)

Yeah, I gave Go Locker a try. I had three problems with it:

1) It requires you to use Go Launcher as your launcher, which doesn't have ICS-style folders

2) The animation on the lockscreen is really choppy, and it really detracts from the overall experience.

3) You can't set the live wallpaper as the wallpaper for the lockscreen if I'm not mistaken.

Anyway, if you're using CM7, you can still grab the transition animations / sounds / fonts / wallpapers / keyboard / etc. - I found that when combined it really works together to create a very authentic ICS look and feel.
[Galaxy S II General] reidar.ostrem:
Thanks for the guide! This is a perfect setup until a stable release of the CM9 is available for the SGSII!

Would like to recommend the exDialer with the ICS theme to get T9 dialing and the ICS look :) Just makes it perfect!

Thanks again.
[Galaxy S II General] soulicro:
You welcome! I really find it makes the phone look and behave as ICS as you can get. I wish I could record a video to show people how everything looks in motion. I feel like I breathed new life into my phone!

I looked and tried exDialer, but ICS dialer doesn't really look like that at all so... but if floats your boat :)
[Galaxy S II General] reidar.ostrem:
I'm addicted to t9 dialing, so it's a must for me. On another note, I see the calendar and the messaging app is not themed, any solutions for that? :-) or did I go wrong somewhere?
[Galaxy S II General] tfn:
Nice one

But I am too lazy to do all that and worst of all I ain't rooted yet as find the SGS2 is great as it is for the time being :D

Having said that the GOOD NEWS is that we will get a stable ICS release in January from the same people who leaked the first two * so fingers crossed*

Once again a good post for those who wanna go for it :D
[Galaxy S II General] Pat123:
^^Who said it's going to be stable??
[Galaxy S II General] soulicro:
Nope, the calendar and the messaging app aren't themed. I try to avoid installing too many additional apps to replace stock ones, so I avoided installing things like GO SMS or calendar apps. I also didn't find these apps to detract from the overall feel of the phone, personally.

Hi guys. I'm running on CheckROM revoHD4 and while sometimes I lose 10% of battery overnight today I dropped 30% in 3.5 hours doing absolutely nothing with screen off and not a huge ammount of apps running on the background. And its not the first time I notice inconsistent discharge. When I installed this ROM battery would last for 20h/3h screen/3h voicecalls. now sometimed it doesn't even last half of that. Any ideas?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AzureusPT:
You should check the battery info via Settings > About Phone > Battery Stats to see if you find a proccess that is huging the battery.

Also you could download Better Battery Stats from the Market and find which proccess are the ones doing the more Wake Locks and how much time they have done it. You could find for example an app thats been doing that for hours and that could be the cause of the battery drain.

I am following the instructions as per the below thread to allow my Acer a500 see my Nokia N900 for tethering purposes.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1033314

I have copied the wpa_supplicant file over the one thats already there.

Now when I open the Terminal Emulator to try ADB remount it comes with an error saying device not found.

I have the wifi turned off, I also have Root Explorer, but I found File Manager HD quite handy.

Now after trying the instructions I now dont have wifi - it comes with an error.

I have tried copying the stock wpa_supplicant file across, with no success.

Can someone please help.
[Acer Iconia A500] erica_renee:
to get AD-Hoc working you first need root and either root explorer (paid app but worth the money) or es file explorer (free but you have to enable root privaleges inside the app. its under the settings menu)

1. navigate to system/bin and copy wpa_supplicant

2. past this to your sd card as a backup

3. rename wpa_supplicant to wpa_supplicant.old

4. extract the file from the download and past it into the system/bin folder. (should be wpa_supplicant)

4. Long press on the file once copied

6. select Permissions and set to User: RWE, Group & Others:RE only

This is the easiest way to fix this... make sure in root explorer you set to rw at the top left in order to rename copy or past into this directory..

Good luck

you can check the last two with root checker . a app on the market..

There iss also somewhere in the settings. that show a mount point . .something like /mnt/sdcard.

this should be just a / in there to have access to the system folder.
