Astro : tap the multi button on the toolbar and then select files. The selected files show in a different color. Then u can copy/move/delete the selected files.

[Q] Apps/widgets installed on phone

Just want to know where the .apk files are kept on the phone because I want to manually back up so I don't need to download everytime I do a reset. I also want to keep them on my PC.
I've searched all the folders but could not find them. Are they hidden?

Try using a file manager such as Astro or ES file explorer. They have the ability to save an app to an apk.

Just go astro, press menu button, choose tools then backup option.
Then select the app that you want to back up.

Question...can I open a rar file on my phone? I tried renaming it to a zip but when I extracted it there was nothing in the file

You should be able to with most file manager apps like astro or androzip.
Astro has the option but rarely works for me... maybe it's just my phone XD

That happened to me once. But on my nexus and I was playing around with ninja morph. Anywho I was running cm so I just reflashed it without wiping or anything with the same rom I was using and it put the browser back for me and didn't messing with the settings or apps. Maybe you could give that a try if worst comes to worse. Just if you have a theme you will prolly have to reflash the theme also. Hope you get it working though!

I'm trying to drop the files using Root Explorer, but it says it is read only. What do I need to do?

When you have the app open there should be a button at the top that say RW hit that then you should be ok

If I long press on the files I get an option for permissions. I can then select read-write options and then ok. But when I go back into permissions, they have reverted to their original state.
EDIT: Ok, I finally saw what you meant and installed the files, but no app in app drawer. I have rebooted just to be sure.

Go to were the browser Is downloaded to and longpress then select copy. Then navigate to /system and at the top of the screen toggle the button that says R/O to R/W, then select app dir and hit menu then paste.

somefile.ext????

I'm using Rcmix 4.0...for some reason, there is a file called "somefile.ext"
soon as i click on ES File Explorer.
I delete it, and it appears again.
Can't open it, all I know is that it's 1.04mb in size.
Any ideas as to what this could be?
cheers

Soon as I click to open es.file explorer its there. It's not in a folder.

I can open the file with Es Note Editor, but takes a long time to load and this is what's displayed:
1st pic is what i see when i open ES File Explorer
rest of the pics are a few screenshots of the actual contents of the 'somefile.ext'

How to locate video file downloaded / purchased from Samsung Hub.

You need to run a file explorer app such as ES File Explorer that gives you the option to show hidden files. Then they can be located in /sdcard/.samsungvideohub/contents/
They are encrypted and unplayable by any software other than the Samsung video app to my knowledge.

OT

Also the stock browser can do this: menu - settings - show hidden file.
