i was looking for linda file manager and can no longer find it. I have a back up for it but was wondering if anyone with a g1 could search for it. So that i know if it was taken off the market or not. I'm not saying its important to me since i have a backup. Just wondering if it was really taken off the market.
Just look up linda or linda file manager
Thanks
I was able to find it just now.

I want to be able to browse files on my SD Card [txt files, PDF's etc.] and ideally the phone itself. I cannot find a way to do it on the phone [no Folder explorer / My Documents or similar] or an App to do this on the Market.
1 Is this possible?
2 If so, whats the best way to do so?
Cheers
Rob
Try to find "ASTRO File Manager" in the Market.
I dont know if it supports QVGA.
Or search only for "File Manager".
Android file manager
I use filedroid on my Tattoo, which I downloaded of the market. I use it to install apps from the SD card. but have opened MP3 and pictures. I dont have a PDF reader so cannot verify that.
File Managers
Thanks for the Headsup, I am installing FileDroid now & will see what it can do for me. Astro File Manager doesn't seem to be available yet, but it seems that many apps are not listed untill they support my Tattoo's screensize, and more are coming all the time, so only time will tell I guess.
Thanks for the suggestions, any more ideas greatly received.
Cheers

Astro is on there now just installed it on my partners and 2 kids Tattoo.
Yes Astro is available and the new updated version allows you to view photographs in slideshow style. I find astro a lot better than filedroid
i don't know how to make files in my galaxy tab be hidden, also i dont know how to hide applications in the application menu,
about the hidden files i couldnt find any thing in my root explorer to make the files hidden.
also in applications, i got into /data/app then moved some applications in order to hide them from the application menu but didn't work.
thanks
Unless your rooted, you cant hide the stock apps. If you are rooted, then the stock apps need to be removed from "/system/app". "data/app" is the location where downloaded Market apps (and updated stock apps) are installed.
I just use LauncherPro and hide apps from the app tray that way. Havent decided if I want to root my V-GT yet as I just got it a few days ago.
To hide a file, like for example your porn movie hidden so it's not seen in the gallery by your girlfriend (jk), use any file manager with root access, and put a period in front of the file name. Ie, long press, rename, put period in front. Now that movie won't show up in the list.
Not on Samsung Galaxy tab

Actually, it does. I use it regularly.
The most common problem that would cause this to not work is:
a) Your file explorer shows hidden files by default (this is more common than it should be) OR
b) there's a space between the period and the file name (note that some keyboards insert this automatically)
If that still doesn't work, let us know what kind of file and what file explorer you're using and we might be able to help.
Try Hide it Pro app. Best of the best for me https://market.android.com/details?id=com.smartanuj.hideitpro&hl=pl
i'll try it
thanks
Will file manager HD do the same as root explorer? Still learning this system. Thanks
I have both on my A500, and while File Manager HD is awesome for searching for files and general moving/shuffling of things, it has no root option, so you can't change permissions on files if you want to. I have Root Explorer strictly for that reason. If you aren't rooted, then I'd just go with File Manager HD, its got a bit better UI and looks pretty classy and will do anything you would need it to do. But if you are rooted, or are planning to root your tablet, get Root Explorer for that.
As a personal choice, I mostly use ES File Explorer, it has a root option and is almost as nice to look at FM HD.
Hope that helps.
+1 ES file explorer, looks good, tablet optimized... kinda... and root support!!!, it's free goddam!!!

I use File Expert, which is free, has root access and also supports transfer of files to and from the tablet via wifi and over the internet. I have Root Explorer on my phone and I transfered it to the Iconia, and there has been a time where it was more convenient to use than File Expert, but in general, I am very satisfied with it. Plus, it's free.
Just a thanks
Thanks to all that posted. I have been really tacked out getting this tab the way I want. (Nub). Good thing got laid off last week, now have much time to play.

Another New tablet file manager
Check it out.
Have to say just downloaded it, but it looks very nice.
Open a folder and if there are folders inside this they show in another pain, and so on...
Hope you like

Looks nice, I personally like File Manager HD for casual browsing/file exploring, very easy to use and allows you to bookmark folders into a side panel for quick access.
Still need Root Explorer for the more powerful options, however.
I can't seem to find where you look at folders on the Nexus 7, am I missing something? On my galaxy S2 I can open up and go into all the folders available on my phone but I cant see the icon to do this on the Nexus 7?
you can get a file explorer app from the play store for free. astro file manager and ES file explorer are two good ones

Strange its not included by default, thanks.
Never had any file apps on any of my android phones before, that seems like a Samsung thing.

Google has said that they don't want to create an OS that requires the user to need a file explorer.

Lack of file manager has been a trend in general; I don't think you can even get one on Windows Phone unless you unlock.
Solid Explorer
At first I thought I was just missing something when I couldn't find the explorer. It became essential when some videos I bought over didn't show up in the download folder, so I installed AntTek Explorer. Seriously, ANYTHING would have been better than nothing. I understand not always needing it, but it's good to have the option. At least we can download one easily enough, so it's fine.
Nexus7 2012 Help pls
I've used Motorola for the past 2 years and am able to connect via USN to my Win7/64 bit system with ABSOLUTE EASE.
I am dumbfounded because I am NOT able to view NEXUS files/directories on my PC.'
When I connect the USB- I only see DCIM and Camera. (If I selected Camera MTP).
If I selected media Device which is the default, I see nothing in PC File Manager.
This is very disappointing because I'd really like to see files on the PC, because typing and moving and renaming is so much easier.
Yes, I know I can see files using Android File explorer, etc.
I am preparing to root my phone, as I did the Razr, and wanted to back up files using Helium (old Carbon), until I get it rooted and can use my paid for Titanium Pro.' --- So, where the devil will the backups be stored? Going back and forth between tablet and PC is odd to say the least.
I thought Nexus was the bomb for allowing users to totally manage their devices. Guess u have to have tiny fingers, great eyes, and LOTS OF Patience!
Any help or comments is very much appreciated.
