File manager issues - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

For about the last week and a half on every ROM I've used, I've been having a strange issue. Files within the file manager, both on built-in ones and third party ones such as OI File manager, can't be moved around. The only way I have been able to move files around is with root file browser. It's almost as if my file manager has been somehow set to read-only, except I'm able to delete files. How can I fix this?

That images are usually saved by an application you installed previously..
Make sure no apps uses that images, and eventually consider uninstalling it

Root Explorer under 1 MB?

I remember seeing one awhile ago in the forums but I can't find anything on the market. I'm looking for a root file explorer that will let me do the basic move, copy/paste, etc functions, all while keeping the app under a MB or 2.

Root Explorer, size 408k. Did you really need to ask?
Guess I didn't specify. :-\ Was looking for a free one. I had one on the gbtweaked ROM I tried out, but failed to backup that apk before reverting to an old ROM. Will that one allow me to integrate it into the ROM so I can swap SD cards with no issue? I was using ES but its now like 6 MB or something.

[Q] .enref file?

Hi, I recently noticed a .enref file that is 7kb big on the root of my sd card. I just flashed a rom to my EVO 4G as well, Digital Karma V8 Reincarnation. I formatted my sd card before installing the rom, so I know it is not from the rom itself. I opened up the file in a text editor, and in plain text the word "android" was displayed in it. Should I be worried about this file at all? What is it for?
Also, using es file explorer on my phone, I do not find the file on the root of my SD card. I will check again on my computer to see if it appears there and tell you guys.

A Google search doesn't turn up anything, so I'd either leave it and not stress over a 7KB file or rename it .enref.old, reboot and see if anything doesn't work. If so, you can always rename it back
Alright thank you for the information.

This is an old thread, but just in case anyone finds this thread through Google like I did, the .enref file is created by Evernote Food and can be safely deleted.

Accidental memory wipe please help!

I was using Astro file manager to clear some space on my phone, and noticed that I had a folder called emulated on there that had all the same files, figuring that was what was taking up so much space I deleted it. Now all my files are gone from sddisk0 too! Is there any way to reverse a mass delete like this??

Maybe try connecting to a PC (or Mac) and running an undelete prog. or check to see if there is an undelete app out their.

Just tried two apps from the marketplace once couldn't scan it the other just FC instantly :-/ I need to get my files back

The apps you are trying to use wont work as the phones internal sd is MTP and cannot be mounted as a disk. THIS HERE is your only option. Its a pain in the ass but youll get all your stuff back provided you havent been using the phone heavily overwriting the stuff u want to recover. Used this on two GS3's, a Galaxy Nexus and my Note II. Flawless if you follow the instructions

App to rename files on watch?

Has anyone found a wear app that actually let's you edit files on the watch? Even the root essentials app file manager doesn't allow me to edit file names.
