The next version V3.6 is available.

I have added Share Target support => receive multiple files from other apps.

It took a while to add this feature because IO Explorer is a Windows Phone Silverlight 8.1 solution, not a Windows Phone 8.1 solution. It´s not documented how to add the Share Target feature for those apps.

Edit: It´s documented here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn655125%28v=vs.105%29.aspx

[MENTION=3111901]lomax50[/MENTION]:

I know that some parts are still not translated. We´ll do that with the next update.:cool:
[Windows Phone 8 Development and Hacking] contable:
It looks like that the next version will bring more access to the filesystem.... I could make visible the subfolders of the root folder (C:\\) and some more folders I couldn´t access so far.

Edit: It will take some time because I have to remove the nativefilesystem from GDTD and re-code the most parts. No ETA.
[Windows Phone 8 Development and Hacking] Sunius1:
What API do you use to enumerate root of C:\? Does FindFirstFileEx work here with certain flags?
[Windows Phone 8 Development and Hacking] GoodDayToDie:
That is a *very* good question. My guess is that it's either WP8.1 specific or it's using loopback to the MTP service with the phone root path set at C:\, but it could be something else. I'd be interested in seeing how it's done...
[Windows Phone 8 Development and Hacking] contable:
I just use the StorageFolder class:

StorageFolder sf = await StorageFolder.GetFolderFromPathAsync("C:\\");
List<IStorageItem> lsf = new List<IStorageItem>();
var items = await sf.GetItemsAsync();
string test = "";
foreach (IStorageItem item in items)
{
lsf.Add(item);
test = test + item.Name + "\n";

}
MessageBox.Show(test);

After that you should get the properties...

That way you can also browse the C:\Windows\System32 folder as well, but there are still folders I can´t access. Maybe because I didn´t add all capabilities.

Edit:

[MENTION=5386621]Sunius1[/MENTION], [MENTION=3529492]GoodDayToDie[/MENTION]:

Atm I don´t have time for doing more tests, so any help would be appreciated.
[Windows Phone 8 Development and Hacking] contable:
[MENTION=3529492]GoodDayToDie[/MENTION]:

Can you explain why your nativefilesystem has lower priveleges than the StorageFolder/StorageItem class ?

I allways thought that the level of access depends on the used capabilities.
[Windows Phone 8 Development and Hacking] ngame:
You mean folders like

C:\windows \system 32\config

????

This folders needs a permission before you can access them

Test on emulator image . They ask you to confirm before you access these folders .

I think we don't need capabalities.
[Windows Phone 8 Development and Hacking] contable:
As written before so far I couldn´t do more tests, but I can retrieve the StorageItems of the C:\Windows\System32 folder. With the nativefilesystem I can´t retrieve the items.

Edit: The StorageFolder class only has access to those folders on interop-unlocked/capability unlocked devices.
[Windows Phone 8 Development and Hacking] contable:
Here 2 screenshots of the C:\Windows\System32 folder items.

C:\Data = U:\

The other folders you can access via c:\ directory. Check the screenshots.

With your modded Windows Explorer you can´t access c:\ directory...
[Windows Phone 8 Development and Hacking] GoodDayToDie:
The StorageFolder APIs use a broker process with much higher privileges than a typical app. They *shouldn't* allow access to the root of the C: drive, but I'm hardly going to complain if they do!

NativeFilesystem just uses the app's own permissions, through the Win32 APIs directly. Thus it can read C:\Windows (and most of its subfolders, including most of System32) but it can't read C:\, or C:\Programs, or several other folders that we know are there. At least, it can't without getting higher privileges than an app is ever supposed to have.
[Windows Phone 8 Development and Hacking] contable:
Thanks for the explanation.

Currently I´m re-coding the app, because I decided to use both: StorageFolder API and nativefilesystem.
[Windows Phone 8 Development and Hacking] GoodDayToDie:
Looks like that might be 8.1-only. Huh. Quite a long shot, but has anybody tried writing anything? Also, any idea what capabilities, if any, are needed for that access?

Also, NativeFileSystem has a GetDriveLetters() function which will list all mounted drive letters (surprise!). At least, all of them that it can see...
[Windows Phone 8 Development and Hacking] contable:
Yes, it´s 8.1 only. I think the StorageFolder API got higher priveleges because of the the new share/share-target features.

All types of access (read/write/delete/rename/create folders) are possible if the StorageFolder or StorageItem can be retrieved. For example I can delete now folders in the app data folders, before I couldn´t. When I have finished the copy/move functions I will report again....

Edit:

I will test the GetDriveLetters() function...
[Windows Phone 8 Development and Hacking] contable:
How to use the GetDriveLetters() function ? Please explain.

Maybe I don´t have the latest version...
[Windows Phone 8 Development and Hacking] contable:
Nice. So we are at the same level now.:good:

Can you browse c:\data\programs\WINDOWSAPPS\ ?
[Windows Phone 8 Development and Hacking] contable:
[MENTION=3529492]GoodDayToDie[/MENTION]:

I can confirm read/write access for c:\.
[Windows Phone 8 Development and Hacking] ngame:
I'm Pretty sure no .

as I remember Windows Apps folder in Windows Phone and also in Windows 8 Pro needs permission that I couldn't access .
[Windows Phone 8 Development and Hacking] contable:
So we only can access the WINDOWSAPPS folder on the sd card....

Why don't you add a text box like windows explorer to navigate everywhere you want freely?
[Windows Phone 8 Development and Hacking] contable:
I allready added a textbox for custom browsing.:cool:
[Windows Phone 8 Development and Hacking] GoodDayToDie:
Shouldn't be that confusing. You may be using an old version of the library? Or possibly one compiled without the USE_NON_PUBLIC_APIS macro (which is defined at the top of FileSystem.h).

String[] drives = FileSystem.NativeFileSystem.GetDriveLetters();

I'm curious whether, if you recompiled the app for 8.0, it would still work? So far all of my apps have targeted 8.0, and it doesn't work for me. I can open the folder, in theory, but I can't access any members of it without getting an exception. All capabilities from IO Explorer are in my test app.
[Windows Phone 8 Development and Hacking] contable:
Indeed I have to update the library first....
[Windows Phone 8 Development and Hacking] contable:
[MENTION=3529492]GoodDayToDie[/MENTION]:

The latest library gives me like 21 errors...

private NativeFileSystem nf = new NativeFileSystem();

doesn´t work... How to use it ?
[Windows Phone 8 Development and Hacking] GoodDayToDie:
Oh wow, you were using an old version. All the APIs in NativeFileSystem are static now (there was no reason for them to be instance methods).

If you want to make it work easily without re-writing much, make the following changes:

* Remove the constructor.

* At the top of the doc (after the other using declarations), put this:

using nf = FileSystem.NativeFileSystem;
[Windows Phone 8 Development and Hacking] contable:
Thanks for helping. It´s working fine.:good:

GetDriveLetters() returns C:\, D:\, U:\ (=> C:\Data folder).

I will send you a pm with another interesting .dll. I can´t get it working so far. Maybe you can help again.

Hi, Contable. Recently I've gone back from WP 8.1 to WP 8.0 GDR3. When I had installed your app in 8.1 I was able to change the model of my Ativ S to cheat the store and installed apps from Nokia collection.

Now I'm on GDR3 and the last version of your app for 8.0 doesn't have this tweak.

Could you tell me what are the tricks to write in SamWP8 app?

Thanks in advance.
[Windows Phone 8 Development and Hacking] lomax50:
You can do that with WP8Tweaks v1.5. (In Tools, registry editor)
[Windows Phone 8 Development and Hacking] matgras:
I keep on getting this error

both on xap deployer 2.0 and the official deployment tool, other apps deploy just fine.

am I doing something wrong?

edit: looks like it's a problem with wolf's mbn creator tool, sorry for bothering you.
[Windows Phone 8 Development and Hacking] shifuimam:
Can you link to this app? I can't find it - I can only find WPH Tweaks.

Also, I'm getting a manifest error trying to deploy any version of the app to the ATIV S Neo I just got (replacement for my old phone). It's interop unlocked and currently running Sprint's official 8.1 update. I did dev preview updates to GDR3 before updating to Sprint's 8.1. Any ideas?

I really just want the tweak for the five notification toggles. If anyone has the registry key for that, I can just do it manually with SamWP8.

I was able to install IO Explorer on my Lumia 830 (RM-983) after interop unlocking it.

a) The app works fine until I login to Onedrive, after which it crashes after a few seconds. Reinstallation fixes it temporarily.

b) when I tap settings it throws an error "External component has thrown an exception." which I have to "OK" three times before it crashes.

just for your information. Probably unforeseen hiccups with the newly availability on Lumia phones.

cheers
[Windows Phone 8 Development and Hacking] contable:
Onedrive crashes because of the old live api. Why the settings menu doesn´t open I can´t say atm.

The app has to be re-written or updated...

Well, same here. Lumia 640 xl dualsim.

OneDrive works fine for me (Lumia 830)

Settings crash because it use "RPCComponent" only for Samsung.
[Windows Phone 8 Development and Hacking] derausgewanderte:
seeing that you have no issues with a few xaps that don't work for me (looking at other threads), I assume there is a significant difference between RM-984 and RM-983 (ATT).
[Windows Phone 8 Development and Hacking] contable:
Indeed the OneDrive client is still working. If there are crashes they are caused by non-supported filetypes like onenote-files.

I can confirm what you wrote about the settings page.

Anyway the app has to be re-coded....

Interesting... I would have though that the peeling/separation of the TPU from the plastic wouldn't be a problem as they claimed to have fixed it on the DNA case.

They do have a 3-Year warranty and replaced both of my DNA cases at the time, but weird that they had the same issue on the M7 still.

I live in NJ, and judging by the fact that it just left San Francisco today, it will most likely be here by the 8th or 9th. I'm really pissed about this. It literally sat in San Francisco for 5 days doing nothing. Was expecting it to come last Saturday.

Yes, I live in the bay area, 2 or 3 hours away from San Francisco. And sure I'll post some when I get home from school. I was expecting it to arrive last Thursday because they usually arrive like the next day they shipped them. I'm hoping the case doesn't run into the same problems the M7 case had.
[One (M8) Accessories] hamlettime:
I'm also in the Bay Area, and I received the case today. Decided to take some quick unboxing pictures and gives some initial impressions of the case.

Comes in a clear packaging, with no accessories. A nice frostiness to the case, adds a hint of grip to the slick back of the HTC One. Putting it on, the first thing I noticed is how tight the case fits. Taking this case off is difficult. If you are the type to constantly change phone cases, this can be an issue for you. I plan to keep this case on for a while though.

The buttons push alright, hoping that it's loosen up after further use. There is a bare minimal amount of lip protection for the front of the screen, but it's not pronounced at all. Other than that, all the cut outs are perfectly aligned. And finally there are the looks. I think this case looks great, and you can see for yourself in the pictures. The brush metal peaks out and looks great under the opaque shell. The phone remains slim, and that's all I ask for. The only thing remains to be seen is if the peeling issues will rear its ugly head. Sure hope not, because the case's aesthetics are ace!

Yes it is glass. Imo it's the best glass protector money can buy. And yes, the lip sits just below the lip. I prefer this because when sweeping near the edges of the screen the case didn't get in the way.
