Amazing! 5 stars on Google Shop!

I've made some xml fixes on github (separated changelog from translations) and polish translation with my GF P. Kowalczyk ;)

I found bugs:

- In settings when i tap "UI mode" the showed window have "directory sort mode" header.

- When i switch skin light - dark above settings header i noticed strange gray bar (My phone: Xperia Z)

Regards!
[Android Apps and Games] vishal007:
1. Nice catch!

2. Like while switching, for a second, or is it permanent? Also, screenshot if possible..
[Android Apps and Games] Kucharskov:
Black skin - grey bar above settings header (permament)
[Android Apps and Games] arpitkh96:
Will be fixed in next version
[Android Apps and Games] Ben36:
I don't have that?
[Android Apps and Games] Kucharskov:
Because you should take screenshot in settings with light and dark skin. Your screenshoots are from home tab and settings with one theme.
[Android Apps and Games] arpitkh96:
Are you using play store version ?
[Android Apps and Games] Ben36:
I've gone through all the settings, i can't reproduce that grey bar. Also it doesn't seem like his option for ui is lit to select?
[Android Apps and Games] Kucharskov:
Yep, right.
[Android Apps and Games] vishal007:
I will send you the test version later, this issue has already been fixed by [MENTION=4500270]arpitkh96[/MENTION]
[Android Apps and Games] Julian_os:
Maybe i can help translating, there are many untranslated strings (German)
[Android Apps and Games] vishal007:
Very well.

This is the German strings xml

https://github.com/arpitkh96/AmazeFileManager/blob/master/res/values-de/strings.xml

And the English strings xml

https://github.com/arpitkh96/AmazeFileManager/blob/master/res/values/strings.xml

Good luck
[Android Apps and Games] timofonic:
Nice app!

Just a few suggestions:

- What about advanced skinning? I would like to use an UI similar to Root Explorer, Material Design isn't for me. I prefer information condensed interfaces over pretty looking. I even use Midnight Commander on Linux.

- What about advanced archiving? So I don't need to use tools such as ZArchiver.

- What about file transfer support? (S)FTP, WebDAV, SSHFS, ownCloud, NFS, Samba

-What about cloud storage? Dropbox, Google Drive, Box, ownCloud...

If you want to implement that, please use plugins. This way users can customize to install certain features or not. An extension system would be amazing, but maybe hard to develop by just a pair of busy developers (I know studies eat lots of time, specially with the current inefficient education system).

The app is fast ans runs fine, buy I would like to replace Root Explorer with an Open Source project and need some more features before that.

I would like a file explorer that I can use even for launching apps (and replace the launcher, so I can make my smartphone more computery), I feel tired with average launchers and I prefer something more near to HFM but touch friendly. Root Explorer is aa bit closer to that.

Thanks for your great work!
[Android Apps and Games] Kucharskov:
*brain explode* Damn stupid! If you wanna "sth like Root Explorer" - use Root Explorer! If you have any problem with Root Explorer tell that Root Explorer author!

Amaze are Amazing cus have Material Design. You wanna change the best element of that app - simpleabd usefull UI.

Move out bro!
[Android Apps and Games] vishal007:
1. Well, I think of opposite. UI should be as simple as possible so that users don't get confused. Making things dynamic will increase this confusion. So, design is good. About the info. thing, amaze gives you pretty much info. can you be more specific which thing you are missing?

2. Some of them which are generally used, are already supported by amaze.

3/4. Can't say when are we gonna work on them.

Didn't understand the last point about launching apps. App manager in amaze can launch apps, if this is what you meant.
[Android Apps and Games] Kucharskov:
[MENTION=4249580]vishal007[/MENTION] please build app and make Google Play update. Why? Cus polish translate, settings bar fix (my bug in this topic) and many many other commits.
[Android Apps and Games] Portgas D. Ace:
C'mon, be patient, the developers will publish an update when they have finished temporarily bug fixing, not when you ask for it. This is a great app, and for sure will become even better in the future due to the regularly improvements.
[Android Apps and Games] Drhedphuk:
Can I request a feature when you guys have the time. Could you implement a recycle bin please.

I love this file manager, I was es to the core, but this is now my preferred daily driver. Thanks guys.
[Android Apps and Games] vishal007:
Update will be pushed soon, once some major bugs are fixed.

Haven't really thought about a recycle bin yet.
[Android Apps and Games] vishal007:
New app icon

https://github.com/arpitkh96/AmazeFileManager/blob/master/res/drawable-xxxhdpi/ic_launcher.png

Need suggestions if this is good, or any modifications are required or any other new idea...
[Android Apps and Games] pakster67:
Looks nice
[Android Apps and Games] wrkerr:
I like it too. Thanks for the great app, by the way.

I would like to second the request for OwnCloud and Google Drive support, when time permits.
[Android Apps and Games] pakster67:
And again looks nice

But IMHO it will be little better to increase the icon size for more matching with another icons
[Android Apps and Games] vishal007:
Me and [MENTION=4500270]arpitkh96[/MENTION] both are very busy these days. I'm afraid, you need to wait for quite some time for this.

I'm aware of this issue, will try to find what's causing the issue.

Even if I remove the required margins from outer boundaries, the icons generated by android asset studio are still smaller than others.

Strange issue..
[Android Apps and Games] wrkerr:
Understandable. I wish I had the skill to pitch in.

Regardless, this is probably still the best file manager around. Keep up the good work!
[Android Apps and Games] pakster67:
Well, this is really not a problem, this is just a suggestion.

Thanks for your work and we are waiting patiently a new build ;)
[Android Apps and Games] vishal007:
Just pushed update v1.5 on Play Store

All the testers are requested to uninstall the debug version of the app and update to latest version.

Enjoy (:
[Android Apps and Games] BlackMaster1991:
I must admit, I liked the old Icon more than the new circled one
[Android Apps and Games] vishal007:
I will make the new one better with the upcoming updates, don't worry (:
[Android Apps and Games] BlackMaster1991:
Very kind. My post was just about me preferring the old one over the new. Maybe others like the new one more. But your file explorer is great. Smooth and flawless.

Hi.

Yes, I am using xposed. Anything to do with it?

Sorry for a month late reply, I don't have access and/or time lately.

As of now, all versions worked on my Galaxy S2 but on Zenfone the last working version was still 1.3.1. No latest version worked (1.4x, 1.5x, and the debug version you sent too).

Still, I'm puzzled because it works on the same setup I have on the other phone, and other root file managers worked (about all of the famous ones).

Oh, and I've tested with xposed disabled (but not uninstalled), same result.

The ones I'm still guessing is x86 vs Arm, and if for some reason, maybe the ASUS framework (discovered in some xposed related modules that some users encountered and has been fixed).

So for now I have to give this up, until maybe some later time. But still, thank you for all the efforts.
[Android Apps and Games] vishal007:
Can you get me the logcat?
[Android Apps and Games] kotey:
The logcat was attached to my previous post. The debug version logcat content was the same as the release version.

Or perhaps you mean the FULL logcat? If thats the case I'll have to clean up first (clean up device or clean up logcat), which is not quite handy since I have around 500 apps installed (a lot of tools and a lot of xposed modules). It'll be a mess.
[Android Apps and Games] maxamus007:
Latest version forces close when trying to share a file. Could you please fix this?
[Android Apps and Games] vishal007:
I remember it, that's very strange error in log. I don't think it can be fixed. Though, I'll look into it when I get time.

Can you tell me how to reproduce it?
[Android Apps and Games] maxamus007:
Select a photo or a file -> Click share and then it crashes.
[Android Apps and Games] vishal007:
Works fine for me, I have log from several other users. We'll look into the problem ^_^
[Android Apps and Games] maxamus007:

Magnificent work! ???

Just one minor bug to report. Selecting apk files doesn't change the icon to a checkmark.
[Android Apps and Games] vishal007:
Yea, selection needs some fixes, like no selection highlight in dark theme, some other minor things. Will fix this soon.
[Android Apps and Games] Pete_not_Keith:
Amazing

Hi Arpit & Vishal I'd just like to say I really like your Amaze file manager, especially the interface and the root explorer option.

This file manager has become my daily driver, replacing root explorer and zarchiver.

I think the fm as it is now is almost perfect, however, it would be real nice to see the ability to unpack (and possibly create?) .7z files. Also would it be possible to add an option to turn off the new file/folder button, instead placing this option next to the search and home buttons at the top.

Thanks for your efforts

PnK
[Android Apps and Games] vishal007:
I personally used root explorer all the time, it's my inspiration. So, we try to add the features of root explorer keeping the design attractive.

We're trying to do something new and different with fab, so just wait and see ;)
[Android Apps and Games] bhanu9999:
Hey. I see a new icon on play store for this amazing file manager but in the drawer it still shows the old one. U didn't update it. I think?
[Android Apps and Games] vishal007:
Yea, update will come with that new icon. Don't ask when, cuz even I don't know that right now.
[Android Apps and Games] thefinishline:
Hey there!

I saw your app on F-Droid today and took a look. I like it very much and I'd like to replace it with my current file manager.

But:

I'm using a lot of OpenOffice documents. The App tries to open *.odt-Files with the build in text-editor. That's not good.

Could you please connect

only supported and testet

file-types to the built in apps?

Thanks :)

What a great file manager. Thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] Nidstang:
From upthread, re: USB OTG:

Any further information on USB OTG compatibility? I think this file manager is outstanding, but unfortunately the one thing I really need a file manager for is transferring files back and forth between my phone/tablet, and my external hard drive.

My tablet for example (Nexus 9, 5.0.1, stock ROM/kernel/etc.) works fine with my external drive when using ES Explorer, but I want to get away from that app due to some disturbing reports on ES that I have seen elsewhere. I want a lightweight file manager with minimal permissions and Amaze seems to fit the bill.

However, when I plug in the external drive into the table the light on the drive turns on, and the drive starts spinning, but I can't find it anywhere in Amaze. I have browsed /mnt as suggested above but found nothing. Also tried searching for files that I know exist on the drive but no dice there either. As far as I can tell the app just doesn't "see" the drive.

Any help would be most appreciated. Regardless, good job on the very professional app!
[Android Apps and Games] Nidstang:
Continued playing with this, and think it may be Lollipop related.

On my Moto XT907 (running 4.4.2, bone stock) navigating to /storage from root lands me at a screen where there are folders for both my microSD card and my external drive (listed as usbdisk). From there, have access to all folders/files on the external drive. Interestingly, if I select "storage" from the right-hand slideout menu I see a different screen with no usbdisk option -- I have to browse there from root.

On my Nexus 9 (running 5.0.1, bone stock) there is no usbdisk option under /storage (regardless of how I get there).

Hope this info is helpful. Thanks again for the app.
[Android Apps and Games] vishal007:
Will pm you with a test version.
[Android Apps and Games] Nidstang:
Thanks! Will keep an eye out for it.
[Android Apps and Games] Nidstang:
Thanks much.

Installed the test version and there is no difference on the Nexus 9 running 5.0.1 as between the two versions of Amaze. Neither sees the external drive, either in the slide out menu or by browsing /mnt or /storage (or any other folders, as far as I can tell).
[Android Apps and Games] arpitkh96:
Have you ever used cm file manager... Does it recognises your drive.

I need to know the exact path of your drive. So you will have to navigate to that at least once.

See the screenshot... I need this type of path
[Android Apps and Games] tschmid:
[MENTION=4500270]arpitkh96[/MENTION] do you have an idea what this errors mean (compile from source in aide) an instance of v4.support.fragment cant be a type of MainActivity (appcompat:21.0.+) or values.xml errors in appcompat (appcompat:21.1.0+) Ill try to migrate your nice app to gradle

Gesendet von meinem LG-D855 mit Tapatalk
[Android Apps and Games] Nidstang:
CM Manager did not work either. Screenshots from ES File Explorer below.

Note that I re-installed ES to get these, and after re-install when I first accessed the external drive I was given a dialogue box asking me if I wanted to give the program access to the drive, and if so once or always (kind of like the dialogue box you get to set default apps, but a little different). Thought I would mention that.

Let me know if the screenshots below give you what you need. Thanks for your help!

BTW -- note that ES has an unmount/eject function in the slideout menu. Would be awesome if you could include that functionality …

Only things needed in any file manager wit a small size but practical

Others may differ on my view

Application manager wt app back up

Text editor

Zip unzip

Otg support

Root acess

Cloud support

Minimal ui

Rest all the features only make the app big and r of no use

So i guess these r the basic requirements of a good and complete file manager

Okay I just noticed something. When moving a file from the internal storage to the External SD Card, the app FCs.

Is it just me or someone else too?
[Android Apps and Games] FdeKlerk:
Hi.

Loving the Material UI, but missing some features (2 to be precise).

1. would be (FX explorers) means to be able to use split windows to view 2 separate folders at one time.

2. the app fc's every time i try to copy a file from "/sdcard/documents/file.jpg" to "/system/usr/backup/"

But fixing that along with the other users ideas. This would be a very, very nice app! Well worth a donate version.:good:
[Android Apps and Games] Freddy1X:
Yes buddy, it is available, but 'sort by types' is not.. I prefer this function because i would love to see apk files on top of folders, and other files. :fingers-crossed:

Was the information I provided in Post #364 helpful at all on the USB OTG issue? Just tried the new version of Amaze on my Nexus 9 (stock 5.1.1) and no luck.

For what it's worth, in addition to ES File Explorer, Total Commander is also able to view the external hard drive on my Nexus 9, so long as this plug-in is installed. Those are the only file managers I have found that work (and I have tried a ton) so it might help differentiate your product if you are so inclined.

Regardless, great work on the new version. Aside from the OTG issue, this is definitely one of the best file managers in the Play Store.

[Android Apps and Games] Mishok:

[Android Apps and Games] Nidstang:
No worries, brother. Was just curious.

Frankly, it may not be worth it if it is a ton of work. I've seen a post here on XDA saying the Android M developer preview already works with USB OTG automatically across most file managers. Your app works with Android 4 as it is, and it looks like Android 6 may work automatically, so perhaps a lot of coding for Android 5 is not the best use of resources.

Thanks again.
