Hello, I'm Raymond (TranceLove @ github) taking care of the SSH/SFTP integration at Amaze File Manager. Doesn't come to XDA very often, so bear with me if I don't follow the posts here very much.

May I confirm the steps for reproducing the symptom as follows?

1. Add SSH connection

2. Connected to SSH server and file list loaded

3. Exit or kill app

4. Launch Amaze File Manager again

5. Open drawer

6. Tap the created SSH connection

7. Connection didn't load

8. Open the connection for editing using the pen beside the connection in the drawer

9. App crash when tap Update

From the log you sent to the team it is very weird to see the SSH URL ended up saved as something like ssh://username:password@ssh.server:***, I'll agree that it is possible the data was not correctly saved to the database, but from what I code and actual tests I couldn't reproduce the problem.

It'd be more helpful if you can provide the values that you entered - please PM me if you can.
[Android Apps and Games] scanno:
Cant seem to PM you. The above procedure seems correct, with the addition that the crash ofc also occurs when just trying to connect again, but then without crash dialog.

I guess you should try a password with a @ and/orf # in it ;)
[Android Apps and Games] airwave209gt:
Maybe I'll have to look into the PM settings when I'm back home tonight.

Good catch! I'll see what to do with them.
[Android Apps and Games] CoCoRosha:
I agree, looks great, really friendly interface! :)

For now do not see any issues, but I just have started to use it, if something will come up I will check it here :)

[MENTION=5821007]airwave209gt[/MENTION] Thanks a lot for implementing SFTP support for Amaze. I have one question about the SSH key option: Does Amaze copy the key to a secure location or does it always get loaded from the location you select it from?
[Android Apps and Games] airwave209gt:
Yes, the key is stored into the database, the same way as Amaze stores SMB connection credentials previously.
[Android Apps and Games] airwave209gt:
Made a fix for this. With this PR it should be possible to have more unexpected characters in the username and password (except colon).

https://github.com/TeamAmaze/AmazeFileManager/pull/1343
[Android Apps and Games] scanno:
I guess you store the whole sftp uri including user-id and password? Otherwise that problem would not have occured. Anyway getting the sftp host name of the string by getting the part after the last @ in the string would solve it (and also user-id's based on e-mail adresses).

You want feedback after a new version hits the beta channel?
[Android Apps and Games] priya95:
File MAnager

Wow, it's really helpful. simple and plain.
[Android Apps and Games] airwave209gt:
That's what I did in the PR stripping the username from the URI. But storing the whole URI into database was a decision by design... not likely to fix this however. :laugh:

If everything goes well it will come up on RC2 which is expected to complete by this Sunday (8 July 2018).
[Android Apps and Games] bigwhiteegg:
I encrypted a larger file (~180MB) and now I'm unable to decrypt it. It will run for a short time and the process just freeze for about 4~5 minutes. I have not yet uninstall or change anything, is there any chance I can decrypt the file? Please let me know if I need to provide any info. I'm using Pixel 1 running Android P beta. Thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] vishal007:
It doesn't freeze, let it take some time, it'll decrypt your file for sure! This is so because the decryption API doesn't really support the progress handling.

Hi! Amaze is amazing but I noticed one bug - it shows all the files and folders in /system twice
[Android Apps and Games] vishal007:
Issue in progress
[Android Apps and Games] Setialpha:
They have fixed this with 3.3RC2. Amaze is really amazing.
[Android Apps and Games] flocke000:
I have a small problem with the newest RC of Amaze (I think it also happened on the RC before, but I don't remember).

Ever time I delete a file on my external SD card Amaze shows an "Error" toast, but the file is deleted sucessfully anyways. Because of that I can't delete multiple files at once from my external SD because it always aborts after the first file (the first file is deleted but the "Error" toast is shown and the rest is aborted).

Can anyone confirm this? And if yes maybe the devs have an idea on how to fix this, I'm happy to provide logs if needed.

Hi,

I've a problem with this amazing app..can't write on external sd card even selecting the root folder

Anyone can help?

Thanks
[Android Apps and Games] Sid32:
Are you rooted? Can other files managers write to the card? What phone, what version of android?
[Android Apps and Games] Edoardo_Tronconi:
Thanks for the answer, :D

I'm not rooted using android 8 on a galaxy note 8.

Until now I was using es file explorer and it is able to write in the external sd card.

When I said "root folder" I mean the external sd card folder

Thanks
[Android Apps and Games] Sid32:
Can you write in other folders on the card? Make a folder in ES and try changing things in that.
[Android Apps and Games] Edoardo_Tronconi:
Now I've allowed the app to write in the external sd card for the 20th time and it worked :confused:

So now I can write in the external memory.. :D

But in the permissions it's only present r and x, not w

Did you know why?
[Android Apps and Games] vishal007:

I have installed emteria.OS (Android for Raspberry Pi) on my Raspberry Pi but have been unsuccessful in getting Amaze (by far my favourite file manager) to work on it. Amaze asks for permission to access files, but before I can answer it crashes.

Emteria is missing all of the Google Play, etc software and possibly other common typical (although not always desired) components of Android. So I suspect that I am just missing some key piece of software. Would anyone happen to know the requirements for running Amaze?
[Android Apps and Games] Adi Laxman:
Does it have any Ads or In-App-Purchases in the App?
[Android Apps and Games] Sid32:
Add-on to add smb, dropbox,etc. Like a buck in the play store.
[Android Apps and Games] Scooby1010:
I have the gapps pico package installed. That gives me the play store components, which I believe should be enough to account for the add-ons. Am I wrong and need to install a larger gapps package?
[Android Apps and Games] androcraze:
Pico gives store access; that's all you need.
[Android Apps and Games] Scooby1010:
Thanks for the verification androcraze! We have noticed it running extremely slow so have ordered much faster microSD cards to try. Hopefully that will help with other things as well.

Why not add the release notes to the OP of this thread and to the Play store page?

I know many users of this app can't find the release notes on the linked github page, and I'm betting it's a great majority. I can't myself. Most users aren't devs.

Hey All

Thank you for having a part of this community. We had a great time here and I still can't believe it has come to this.

As you all might be aware, G+ is going down coming weeks. Development for Amaze has also been going quite slow because of our busy schedules. But I still think we're not done here. You all asked for so many things which I still believe are yet to be delievered. I can't say when, and how soon, but we will deliever many more things with Amaze that's for sure.

I'm looking forward for your guys to be with us all the time, that's what drives us to deliever. So, I'm announcing another social platform for Amaze community and I believe it'll bring you guys more closer to us in terms of updates and features, while keeping spammers away.

This is not a goodbye but a new beginning.

Join our telegram group - looking forward to see you all there (:

Would be great if the plugins would be purchasable without Google involved. Honestly, this is what I expect nowadays from Open-source.
[Android Apps and Games] crypta:
And for communications. Why does everyone support closed source enterprises - matrix synapse is the Foss way to go ?.
[Android Apps and Games] scanno:
Then add the telegram bridge [emoji16]...

Verstuurd vanaf mijn ASUS_Z01RD met Tapatalk
[Android Apps and Games] crypta:
You mean for the project? If I add a Telegram bridge to my server, it still uses Telegram. Does not change much on the fact that matrix or even good old irc is better than a property solution. And also stated it is just my opinion.
[Android Apps and Games] scanno:
[emoji16] Well if someone bridges the telegram chat and opens the room for federation, other people can join that room. This is also done with the matrix-synapse rooms.

Best of both worlds.

[Android Apps and Games] Bintang Krisna:
Guide me to disable that things pls
[Android Apps and Games] crypta:
BTW as said, it is still support of proprietary technologies, both data and support wise. Also matrix synapse is complete and won't need these commercial companies. It won't motivate people to use Foss software. This choice has to be made by the project not the ecosystem around.

We all shape the society. Our doings our used tech. If you want Foss and also proprietary companies, you still support the companies.

Beside, I can't take the responsibility of hosting others people communication infrastructure. Eu law is very strict with this.
[Android Apps and Games] crypta:
Could it be that even if I gave Google the money for your cloud plugin, that it doesn't work with the fdroid Foss variant of your app?

Or how can it be activated? Really, create an alternative to the Google crap.
[Android Apps and Games] casu95:
A word… amazing
[Android Apps and Games] crypta:
I really dislike the impression that the creators of amaze aren't interested in feedback here or at least don't react within reasonable time.

Samba plugin also usable for Foss users is an important factor.
[Android Apps and Games] vishal007:
Fdroid variant will also support cloud plugin. Please revert if it's not working for you, simply open plugin only once. Then always Amaze should show plugin options.

We do reply, and are indeed interested in keeping app updated with user feedback. Please write back a message on telegram group so it'll be easy for us to get your messages.

[Android Apps and Games] crypta:
Thanks for the help. I really never expected it there.

Can't Browse Remote Directories

Thanks, I'm now able to connect to my Windows 7 laptop on my LAN!

But I can't browse network directories. With ES File Explorer (which I want Amaze to replace) I can do a slide show and browse images in a network directory by swiping left or right with Android Image Gallery, but Amaze only opens one file at a time. Is there a setting I'm missing?

Any chance that Cryptomator support could be integrated? It's the only encryption app my family doesn't yell at me for making them use and it be nice to be able to mount vaults for backups and whatnot.

The they have an open source implementation for third party apps at https://github.com/cryptomator/cryptofs
[Android Apps and Games] redhonker:
Just installed the app.

1. The smb connection does not work well. It can connect 1 out 5 tries.

2. Can't open the file directly on a smb folder. Ideally, it could copy to a temp folder and open the file. It would require me to copy it manually first.

Thanks
[Android Apps and Games] Eklondh:
This is still the best open source file manager in my opinion :D But I would like to ask the creators do you want to implement something for copy/paste? Like some sort of dialog or something because right now the files just copy over naturally and it can be a little hard to know when an operation is done for example

That is the only thing missing otherwise I think this is the best one out there

Hi, great file manager!

Just got the cloud plugin but I realized that you can connect only with one account to each cloud provider. I would really need to connect to OneDrive with both my personal and work account. Do you plan to fix this in the future?

Also, as a suggestion, I think it would be nice to have a thin bar under Storage, Root, One Drive, etc. that shows how much storage is occupied.

Didn't went through the 73 pages but now Amaze uses sftp and I can't connect anymore using Filezilla. What steps should I take to get this working?
[Android Apps and Games] kurtn:
Will we see an update for f-droid version? I really prefer a high reputation store for apps with root access.
[Android Apps and Games] yxo 6o6uka:
The easiest to get the old behavior:

- Menu (upper left) -> FTP Server

- 3 dots menu 9upper right) -> Login

- Un-check "Secure Connection"

Your "old" filezilla connection should now work as before.

Yet you have more connection options now... Ffom here you can figure out what works best 4 u.
[Android Apps and Games] CoOlSlY:
Never thought of looking there :| Thought it was only credentials there. Configured FileZilla to use sftp but good to know I can disable the secure connection. Thank's a lot.

Hello everyone sorry for my English

Amaze don't see my samba share when do + and cloud connection and SMB connection it don't find my laptop I need to enter ip of my laptop manually in amaze and it's useless because I need do that every reboot of my laptop

Why amaze don't see my samba share like others file manager

Nice filemanager. But I've read-only access to external sd. I'm running LineageOS14.1 (Android 7.1.2) and Amaze v3.5.2. External sd is accessible via /storage/0286-EA3C (rx only). Same behavior when using the short link sdcard1 within the left panel. All files and folders show rx not dr-xr-x--- or something else . Using root there is a strange and awkward workaround: When using the path /mnt/media_rw/0286-EA3C it's possible to write files to external sd (rights: drwxrwx---). It works too when set as homedirectory (root only). Saving to favorites is useless because when I call it I do get the message: "You'll now go to Android's filesystem for security reasons. Please select the USB device from the list on the left".

With older amaze versions (e.g. v3.2.1) I get write access using //storage/0286-EA3C, no typo 2 slashs at the beginning. Using /storage/0286-EA3C (one slash) I've rx rights only. The buildin filemanager has no problems to access external sd. Any hints for me? When it's a bug then I offer my assistance.
[Android Apps and Games] vishal007:
Please join our telegram channel and we'll discuss the issue in detail :)

[Android Apps and Games] EEngineer:
Can you discuss it here so we can all see the answer? I had the same problem with Amaze earlier this year & could not fix it, ended up going back to ES v3.2.3.1.
[Android Apps and Games] airwave209gt:
This sounds quite weird... external SD should be accessed using SAF anyway. Access via /mnt/media_rw/ is yes, root only.

But the double slash workaround problem... let me do some tests and get back to you. Although, I can only do this with emulator since I have only an Oneplus2 with AOSPExtended (7.1.2) and no SD card slot:(

Not really sure about this, but I suspect the builtin filemanager (whether it's CM's own or AOSP) may have some privileges granted at system level that won't ask for SAF permission, like com.android.documentsui.

That's what I can think of so far.
[Android Apps and Games] codified:
Amaze is not available in the default F-Droid any more as the developers started to include binary jar files for cloud support from version 3.1.2 rc2. F-droid requires the full source code of all components so they can build it from scratch themselves and make sure there is no nasty stuff hidden inside.

Amaze File Manager – F-Droid

You can manually add the Izzy repo to F-droid (https://apt.izzysoft.de/fdroid/) which pulls the "fdroid" releases that the developers make themselves on their github https://github.com/TeamAmaze/AmazeFileManager/releases

The only difference between these releases and the Google Play releases is that the Play Store releases use Google's billing methods to allow donations whereas the fdroid releases just have a paypal link
