close thread, theres no best file manager, please close thread!
I think "File Expert" is pretty awsome.
It has a built-in ftp and smb server.
It is a root explorer.
You can open files with every app you want to open it!
Just give it a try

Astro File Manager
I like Astro File Manager.
astro file manager is best
Use ES file explorer....
WHY???
Because:-
*built in text editor
*built in rar,zip extractor
*built in zip compressor
*built in app backup
*built in dropbox file manager
*built in Media Player
*built in image viewer
*ES Task killer module(Which really kills task empties & RAM,it's better in killing task than ATK )
*Root Explorer
*Themes....etc.
Give It a try and remember to see the settings.....
file expert. tons of feature & still really easy to use.

I was just curious but why do all the dev's include Astro? I dont see the benifits of this file management app when Androzip and ES File Explorer are so much better! Androzip has a built in backup utility, task manager and app installer/uninstaller, and it also allows you to unzip rar, zip, 7zip, and tars while ES File allow for that plus networking!
i would venture to say the dev of astro allows for distribution and others don't.
Yea, I was all about Astro until I tried ES File Explorer and realized that it allows me to stream videos over my network. That is a killer feature that Astro can't match.

The above mention are too free in the Market but I could see those dev not wanting there work to be distributed by other means....thanks for the insight...but as far as advantages, is it safe to say that there are NONE and that these are better alternatives?
The Syndicate 2.1 ROM comes with ES File Explorer.
Kinda on this topic, does anyone know of an app like astro that when backing up apps, it save apps data too? Otherwise astro works great.

I don't know of any file explorer apps that do that, I do know that the free version of Titanium Backup works like a champ though.

Thats a good sign then, maybe more dev's will start noticing that these two are far better options than Astro.

Good question. I have both AndroZip and ES File Explorer, and have never seen the need for Astro.
For that matter I wonder why anyone feels the need to package any of these apps into a distribution. Anyone can just go to the Market and download whichever utilities they want.
Hi my New x8 came with Application Installer v2.1.2 (2010), what is currently the best Application Installer I should use ? what software should I use for SD Browser & for task manager ?
root exppoler for browse folder and installer,, dont know bout task manager.. not use that thing till now..
ES Explorer (for your stock rom) and System Tool for task manager
Is there an app that will only allow to browse the SD card ? the apps you all suggested are superb but very dangerous also.
not really dangerous if you know how to use it
I'm scared of the fact that someone could accidentally delete system files with their itchy hand's.
I use Advanced Task Killer it's very simple and easy to hand.
I use Root Explorer too, but I think that ASTRO File Manager is good for unroot X8 I am not sure I just know that it is one of the most loaded File Manager.
And a secruity app is also important. I use Lookout.
i think the most important app is Applanet, with this you can download almost all apps FREE!
So in this app you can search all filemanager and you can try it which is the perfect for you.
Best regards

Sorry, I mistyped the "SystemPanel" app as System Tool... But "Advanced Task Killer" free, is very good for freeing RAM like jantheg suggested.
As for "ES Explorer" If u dont check the root option and the Mount System as RW option then u wont delete something important 'cause u won't able to...
I liked "Ghost Commander" as file browser before rooting the phone
Foursquare bro!!!! Adobereader for that pdf

But Applanet is illegale, because you can download copyrighted Apps for free so if you don't have problems with this you can use it.
use OI File Manager .its very simple and is not Dangerous
for task manager use Android assistant(it have a file manager included)
What File browser(with root-browser fuction) do you use?
I'm using Root Explorer
(I heard ES mess up a lot..so)
Anyway, how about you?
Root explorer FTW!

I like MiFileExplorer_v2.3.7.25 ... :good: (It should be on the Play Store now)
Does anyone else like it more than others?

Root explorer does all I need. Sometimes I use the file manager from rom toolbox, but they're pretty similar.

Ghost Commander. I've tried everything else but kept going back to that, love the simple but highly customisable UI. My only hope is more versatility in handling compressed archives.
FX Root Explorer. Great Features.
ES file explorer.

I am using the native built-in fileapp (My Files) on my S4 GTi9505 and I cannot see the System/APP folder or directory.
When I had ES File explorer, then I was able to see those system files.
The reason I took off ES File Explorer, is because I did not need to have two file managers on my phone. Its just waste of space.
And I think the native My Files app is much user friendy and has a nice GUI.
I am not planning to tweak anything of the System folders in there, I just want to check out something.
Is there a hidden folder option that might be enabled or something?
Thanks!

Well Stock file manager will have linited options only and u have to use 3rd party file manger to see those files like es file / solid explorer / root file manager etc
and ya too edit there u need Root also
Are you serious? Why on earth would Samsung let you access or even view the protected system folders on their stock file manger? Silly

Use Root Explorer. The default Samsung file manager will never allow you to access root/sensitive partitions and folders. Anyway, external file manager apps don't really occupy alot of space.
Currently I'm using as Astro file manager, but did not like it.
Is to install the file manager in CM Nexus 4 with Android 4.3 OTA?
Thanks.
I use es file explorer, it's got everything I can think of, I even stream films via it.
Smb,ftp,cloud,LAN ect ect
Also you can directly throw apk's, apps or any file to other es users on the same network.
Es explorer is the way to go. And its a shame that android don't have a file explorer of its own

i use solid explorer the full version ,the best for me
1º ES Explorer
2º ZArchiver
ES File Explorer. As a side note, if your phone is rooted, then you need to enable "Root Explorer" in the settings of ES Explorer to get access and write permission to the entire file system.
I personally like Antek.

Zarchiver is awesome, but I need root and ability to backup APK, it's the only reason I'm still using ES File Explorer.
