Folder Encryption - G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps

I have tried loads of encyption apps but can't find what i want.
I have an existing folder that i want to encrypt.
Then i want to open that folder, fill in a password and browse without the need for repeated encryptdecrypt n file copying.
It's just a password to access the folder nothing more..
Does anyone know of an app that can do this?
Cheers in advance.

Morning!
You've no doubt tried FileCrypt. But like you mention you do need to decrypt view the content and then re-encrypt it again. But so far that's currently the best on the market that you can get.
Cheers!

Do u have DroidTV installed?

Deleting HTC Widgets from internal memory

Is there a way that you can remove certain HTC Widgets from the phone to free up some of the memory? Can I use es file manager and go to /system/app and just delete apk's from there or will that cause problems? Thanks
Sent from my AT100 using Tapatalk
If you've rooted, yeah you might be able to do that. I think you'd need to root to access the system files (not sure, don't know about phones just thinking logically) and then it should be possible.
Rooted - File Explorer - System mount - delete those Files with the ending widget.

Yes you can.
I would use titanium backup.
And backup before deleting so if you run into issues you can restore individual apps.
Although es file will do just fine, just make sure in the es settings to give root access and mount file system.

Sorry for bringing up an old thread but it's kinda relevant.
I tried installing a few additional widgets through HTC Hub. The downloads were successful but the install wasn't. And this took up some (large actually) amount of space off my internal.
So, what do I delete and from where to get rid of these unwanted files? I don't really care about it not being installed, just don't want it bloating up my memory space. Thanks in advance, and I apologize if this has been answered elsewhere.
I'm sorry but Bump.
Any help would be appreciated with the above issue?
They should be installed to
/system/app. if your are using apps2sd with your Rom, look under /system/sd/app. Just look for the name of the widget u downloaded and delete it from there. I use es file explorer. U must go into its settings and allow root explorer and mount, to be able to do this. Also try wiping your dalvik cache in cwm.

[Mod] Disable Led Lights

Hi
If you want to disable led lights in bottom of phone, you need only a Root Explorer , go here:
/sys/class/leds/button-backlight
open this file ( brightness ) in text editor and change 1 to 0 , now save the file, it should turn off your led lights.
but it effect untill your phone is on after restart it goes back to defaults.
May be you can make script to apply at boot.
Make a zip that pushes the edited file into the system, perhaps i can make it

I take it that it goes to another page? If so I copied the text from that page into a file in the destination folder called chrome-command-line and set the permissions, which works well.
Download the attached file, place it in the data/local folder and delete the .zip extension, set permissions to read write execute, read execute and read execute. Force stop chrome and re start it and voila all is good in desktop mode.
Hope this helps
Rob
Thanks for the download link. Uber noob here. How do you set the permissions?
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
Root manager or es file explorer will let you change permissions, just long press the file for the option to change permissions.
Thanks...super easy
thanks! i'll try it soon. :good:
it's a pain for some websites that always go into mobile mode.
Sadly this doesnt work. it doesnt save request desktop mode and still forces me to mobile sites. And yes I did copy the file to the right location and chmodded it.....

You are wrong.
After a restart it works fine, the check box won't be checked in chrome. A good indicator... go to Meritrust credit unions website... if it loads with login capabilities you succeeded. This worked for me, thank you op

You have it named "chrome-command-line" only right? Not "chrome-command-line.txt" etc? If you have it named that with the correct permissions it should work...

Yea its renamed "chrome-command-line" without the "". And the permissions I set with ES File explorer is:
RWE
RE

In that order.
Works for me too.
I was about to say you may have the file name wrong because I did but apparently that's not the case.
I cleared data too in chrome. Might not have been necessary but just saying.

How do you find where installed apps are saved?

Hey guys. I have installed various apps in my phone and when I try to find the installed folder using a file manager, it's like all over the place. Most of them are inside the /sdcard/android/data... but some are just in the root of the phone storage.
Is there a way for me to know the path of a shortcut just like when you right click a shortcut in the desktop from your PC?
Thanks.
/system/app and /data/app.
Application files will have an .apk extension.
Corrected typo.

As previous poster said but .apk instead of .spk
The apps store their data where ever they want though. /data/data, /sdcard/, /sdcard/data/, /sdcard/android/data/, others.
Shortcuts work different in android. You use the shortcuts from the app list in your launcher. You can create shortcuts on launcher by long pressing an open space also.
One other way is to use intents to call a app but that's pretty advanced

Thanks guys. Reason I asked is I'm trying to find the path of apps I want to bind on SD using directory bind and its hard knowing where they are installed.
Remember in PC when we right click a shortcut, click properties, we can see the path of the installed files. Is there something like this in android?
