Well if it's not hard to code, I'm sure may users (especially we here at XDA) would find it useful. Stuff like changing permission, the way the storage is mounted (r/o or r/w), and the stuff you mentioned.

What I also think would be useful is a launch option at the applications category, and maybe another pie chart for the internal storage, not just the SD card. Other than that, I like the app, especially the UI, so keep up the good work. :highfive:

Edit: I just noticed the documents contain music playlists, can those be excluded? I have a ****ton of them because I just lazily copy whole directories of music to my phone, and the .wpl-s make it cluttered.

Also I get this toast message when I tap on a .docx.
[Android Apps and Games] digesh9870:
A very nice app. Great user interface. But the sorting of directories changes by itself to its default i.e by name. Even if I sort it according to last modified, it will change by itself.
[Android Apps and Games] balamu96m:
Looks like a great app....It would be better if you add the min sdk version (I guess its android 4.0+) for this app in original post and in the title of the thread.
[Android Apps and Games] dummie999:
I miss root, and the ability to mount /system rw. Also, the shape of the directory button on the screen you start with suggest you could drag it up, which would be nice.

Also, if you tap the directory button, then there are like 2 separate file managers open. Perhaps a way to add more of them? So you can have 3 or 4?

Lastly, as other people said, built in editor and archive manager would be nice. I am using the built in texteditor of another file manager right now.

Awesome app!

buddy it have great ui good looks .

but it lacks many features like root access. in built file achieve it still dependent on others.

keep developing the ui i only downloaded bcoz of its ui
[Android Apps and Games] TheEdgeOfRage:
Feature recommendations:

1. Changing the default directory when opening the directory manager

2. Multiple windows like the ones on ES file manager

3. Like already mentioned root explorer and ability to change permissions and owners (really need this feature otherwise this filemanager is useless for me :/)

4. More details on the list itself, like file size, permissions etc.

5. A menu that is opened with the menu button, so I don't have to exit the directory manager before I can access other parts of the app.

6. Option to have the app open the directory manager by default, because it's the thing I usually open.

7. A dark theme ;)

And I would really love to use this file manager if you can get at least a few of these fatures running, because the UI, animations and evething are better than on any file manager I've used so far

I am absolutely with you on this. I actually put this as a suggestion to Google for their Play Music app. There is little need to see ring tones and other phone specific media if we can choose not to.

"like 2 separate file managers": do you have a kind of feeling the UI in each category is different from the GUI?

"build in editor": could you share daily experience with such editor? What will you do with the text editor?

Android 3.0+ is great, compatible with a huge number of devices. Few app makers make it android 2.3+ to bring in few more users. BTW, i guess it is not that easy to implement the holo style in Android 2.3 and it is up to the developer to support older android versions.

Anyway android 3.0+ is good! :good:

We considered the devices with Android 2.3 are old in OS and hardware components, and such devices may be upgraded with new released phones which have higher version Android OS, like 4.0+, and also much better hardware components.

Well, if you dev, will you support Android 2.3?

"Drag Button": I just mean the Directory button at the bottom of the screen you see when you open the app. Right know, you would open the file browser by tapping on it, but the shape suggests you should drag it up to open file browser.

"2 separate file managers": I don't really know what that means, but it's just that instead of 2 file browsers you could have more of them: access them by sweeping from left to right

"build in editor": only basic stuff. Editing build.prop etc., only plain text.
[Android Apps and Games] Horcza:
Well there are options to delete and get the details of apps, there could be a button to launch them. Eg. if I'm at the apps and I want to launch facebook or something I can do it from the manager, without exiting the app.

You sure about the screenshot btw? It shows it to me. But anyway, I attached it again.
[Android Apps and Games] balamu96m:
Well, if it is a very simple app and starting from scratch, yes.

But at this point, people are upgrading their phones. And if I plan to have a good GUI, definitely no to android 2.3.

For this app, it is up to you people to decide !! :), and but if you have a plan to support 2.3, it is better to be done now, quite early in the dev of the app, because later on, with more features, back porting to 2.3 will be an uphill task!

Good luck!

Beautiful app and very fast and smooth animations. Already using it as my default file manager app.

One feature missing, or which I can't find, is the ability to "Cut & Paste". Can only see copy. Useful feature since most of the time I sort stuff I download that way.

Also a dark theme is nice to complement the rest of my stock android UI ;)

"Cut & Paste" is really a good suggestion. :good:

- I will discuss with the dev team to see how we could achieve this feature. By the way, dose this feature require root access?

"sort stuff download"

- do you mean the operation "cut & paste" is what you do in high frequency to downloaded files?

"Dark theme"

- could you share your idea to dark theme? many people have told me this, but I am not sure why dark theme is so popular.

Many thanks again.

Can't help you on the dev part since I have no experience about it.

- do you mean the operation "cut & paste" is what you do in high frequency to downloaded files?

I like to have everything organised in folders in case I need to access the files from my PC or other apps later on.

- could you share your idea to dark theme? many people have told me this, but I am not sure why dark theme is so popular.

If you have an AMOLED screen it helps battery mostly. But for me it's better since it's easier on the eyes especially in low light conditions having a blackish background with white font instead of a blinding white background, some of us have sensitive eyes. Also after passing too much time looking at screens I try to minimize eye stress by not looking at anything bright, sometimes it just hurts.

In my opinion, archive files are not common to normal users, so I wonder if you can share me some experience of yours while dealing with archive files, like where to get, how to download, the purpose of using such files on mobile devices, and so on...

I can send you a wpl a few hours later (apparently I can't attach files from the xda mobile app), if that's okay.

I use doubleTwist, and by managing I'd mainly use delete, but an ID3 tag editing option would be great. Also a set as ringtone option.

[Android Apps and Games] FiniteDGk:
Archives are pretty much boxes. You put things into them to save space and room. I generally only have archives after downloading something. Afterwards it's just a backup. You can't do much with them, except rename and move etc. If you want to edit the files inside you have to unpack it first. Otherwise data gets corrupted; usually. There I think are a few exceptions.

You either download an archive or create your own. Popular formats are the .7z .rar and .tar.

It's generally a staple file manager feature to host archiving abilities, but generally it's only necessary to be able to unpack archives.

For rooting archive features are pretty important, but I'm unsure about a normal user.

GUI vs functionality

Sorry, if i broke some rule. I just want to say my view. I think that filemanager is productivity tool and thus i think its most power lies in functionality and not so much in fancy childish gui. But i respect other may feel it otherwise.
[Android Apps and Games] xIceCream:
Just installed it. UI is very smooth and fluid. Very elegant and friendly to use. It also act as a gallery viewer. Have yet to explore all the other options, but its a very good start.

I don't usually waste time on those file manager app, but I saw yours featured in xda portal and the beautiful thumbnail attracted me.

Each type of files are very organized, and just found out there's bunch of useless docs generated by some apps. lol. Time to delete it.

Thanks for the app. Guess this will replace my other ugly file manager. Keep it up, good luck!

Cool app :)
[Android Apps and Games] Oblox:
1) Allow this app to be picked by system settings to pick a ringtone. I really really want to get rid of File commander but its the only one that allows me to do this easily (I hide my ringtones in a nomedia folder so my music software doesnt find them.

2) Allow multiple 'tabs' like Root explorer so I can easily copy between internal external storage etc.

Great app and keep up the great work!

This is a neat app. Good work developer!

I have a question. I noticed that I can't share more than 10 files at once. I wonder whether this is an app issue or an Android issue.

The description says that root explorer can edit files permissions but I don't see such option in the menu.
[Android Apps and Games] Oblox:
Hi uuOuu,

Amazing what youve done with the app in such a short time, really really great work.

I dont suppose you remembered what I asked for before about picking ringtones/notifications by file?

What you have done for Instagram is similar to what I was asking, when you go to settings > sounds > ringtone/notification it would be great if it gave the option of selecting the file through the TOMI ui. This way you can pick any file from the file system and not be limited to media scanned folders/files.

If you look at the app in the play store 'File commander' this has this utility as mentioned before.

I thought id try and explain it again now youve done something similar for another app.

PM me if you want more info or try out the app I mentioned (im on PA and have also used this on CM11/Slimkat) stock roms usually dont offer this choice of app to pick ringtones.

Thanks

I'm using it, great app. When i open the 'root' folder, appear nothing, i tap again on the folder and the content appear. Is like the root permissions 're done with delay :confused:
