Is there an app that will allow me to write a note (spen), minimize it, then close the note writing app - but have the note I wrote still there. Then open some other app (ES File Explorer) and be able to access that note I wrote while I'm in the ES File Explorer app ?
I needed a document of directory tree layout while I was using ES file explorer when I discovered I couldn't do this with action note ( at least with what I knew about it's use - it has a minimize for the note written but all seems to disappear when I close action note ).

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.
Hello,
i9500, Stock MJ8, rooted
I just updated to 4.3 MJ8 and want to get rid of some additional system apps.
I run into 2 problems:
1) If I use ES file explorer (Root enabled), I can access the files, but the delete operation fails because "read-only file system", although I can see that read and write is enabled for root. Permissions for the folder are "rwx r-x r-x", the file permissions are "rw- r-- r--". Actually, it shows me that I have read and write permissions on both folder and file but I have no idea how to change them, if necessary.
2) Instead, if I want to delete those system apps with Titanium Backup Pro, I (or better TitaniumBackup) simply does not find them. One example is the system app "InteractiveTutorial.apk". If i enable all filter criteria, TB just does not display, although I can see that it is in the /system/app- folder. This is valid for many other system apps. A support question to TB was not answered.
I checked the search within XDA, but I either get 2900 results or none. TB-website and EStrongs website also didnt help me.
Does anybody of you have a helping hand for me, please?
Kind regards

Thank you. But ES file explorer IS a root explorer
Did you acquire fully root access ? If not,try to flash an Adam kernel(or perseus,up to you).Or maybe you have to update your TB and Es Explorer. Hope it will help u

I know. But root explorer is better and easier when it comes to deleting system apps. I don't think u can delete system apps from es file explorer.

Used another explorer and succeeded. Strange thing: It worked with the old version of ES file explorer but not with the newer 3.x.
Thanks for your help, guys.
EDIT : I forgot to reboot after editing the file. So no answer needed. The fix works alrigt Sorry . Thanks.
Hello,
On my Note 4 I experiment the same issue for apps to be able to write on the extsdcard. Using Root explorer I did the fix with editing the permission platform xml file like described in this thread for Note 3
the apps (like photo applications) still do not have the right to write on it...
How could it be done ?
Thanks
Galaxy Note 4 with Snapdragon only rooted
Something strange here to me at least. Running Lollipop 5.1.1 from RWC on a Samsung Galaxy S4 SGH-I337M. Previously was able to name any path/folder on internal OR external SDcard using Dolphin Browser. Now Dolphin Browser is giving me message that Google restricts writing to External SD card, however there seems there are workarounds for this by changing/adding some lines to the platform.xml file. I tried doing this with ES File Explorer PRO but got message: error occurred while trying to save. File not saved. So I downloaded Apps2SD from Google Play Store and it actually does change exactly the lines in the platform.xml file I tried to change AND files/media actually do download now and can open them with an appropriate app if and only if I tag the download notification BUT afterward CANNOT find the downloaded item anywhere using ES File Explorer PRO nor the stock file manager as both of these by default point to a path sd/0/ExtSdcard(Dolphin) / files and shows Empty folder but if I tag the Dolphin-browser menu/downloads it actually is showing but have no idea where. Any ideas, I am lost. Please and Thank You.
Due to a new policy, after rooting the Galaxy S phones, you can't use Samsung Health and some other apps anymore.
Here is an easy way to "bypass" this policy.
1. You need a file explorer with root acces to / (Root Explorer, ES File Explorer etc)
2. Open "/system"
3. Open "build.prop"
4. Find line "ro.config.tima=1"
5. Change the value from 1 to 0
6. Reboot your phone
7. Done :fingers-crossed:
the system does not allow me to save the file after i change the value? please help.
