[Q] File Manager in HTC Desire 816 - Desire 816 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi Friends,
Need a helping hand.....
I am a Samsung smartphone user and now jumped to HTC Desire 816. i want to view my files and folders (as normally you can see ur internal memory SD card memory files in samsung smartphones) in HTC.
is there a hidden inbuilt apps or ineed to download any application from google play store.

Nope. After kitkat 4.4, google limited the external sdcard as read-only for 3rd party apps. Thus all file explorers were broken and no longer to create or delete files beside the "application specific" folders.

You have to download a file manager app from the play store. File commander and es explorer are good.

I would beg to differ on that. it's all going fine in Desire 816. ES Explorer am using and there is absolutely no issues in accessing root folder, SDCARD or anywhere. :good::victory:

U are only able to accessing it not Modifying it . Without rooting it's not possible now (we al know, due to kitkat restrictions). I myself tried many file manger on desire 816 but with no success .(Some explorer can do one task ). I found only these ways to modifying sd card data without root.

One would need root to modify root folder. but ext-sd/SDCARD is working all fine for me . Indian Stock ROM

Thanks guys... it worked with downloading an Astro File Manager as it is easy to view and modify the contents.
ES Explorer may be good but i found it quite confusing.
need to download another App for moving apps to SD ------- APPMNGRIII

File cannot be modified... kitkat restriction!

How are u able to modify files on SD card? because SD card has(only) read only permission... and Files can neither be moved or copied from internal storage to External storage/SD card....nor within the External Storage/SD card!
Can u plz help with this issue? without rooting...because if we root, warrenty becomes void!
and 1 more issue! - Files are absolutely not visible on Polaris 5 app's file browser...it displays as - No items!

A stock file manager would have by passed the kitkat related issue..
samsung has stock file manager, so it has the permission to write on sd card..thats why on my note 3 i can modify sd card files without rooting..
but htc doesnt have a stock fil;e manager..thats why we are facing problems..

Thank you so much. I was waiting for ages for the upgrade for this file!!!!

If I am not wrong I was able to delete, paste onto SDcard in earlier KK devices like Note 3, Galaxy S5 and Xperia Z2. Wondering why KitKat restriction is only with HTC.

New Google Talk 1.3 with Voice & Video Chat Support

http://hotfile.com/dl/131101226/7660669/GoogleTalk.zip.html
I got it from HTC Ruby test firmware. The apk has proper Google signature.
It's still versioned 1.3 but I think it is newer than the one from http://goo-inside.me/gapps/gapps-gb-20110828-newtalk-signed.zip, because this one has more complete Chinese localization.

Get the Download All Files app from Market.
The stock android browser doesnt allow you to download unsupported files. This includes files like .zip, .rar etc. Instead you get download failed. As claimui said get the download all files app from the market.
Gtalk video working perfect on Samsung Galaxy S2 XXKI4 Android 2.3.5
Help plz? I am still unable to make this google talk version stick after reboot. I tried some of the methods here (I don't understand the changed permissions to rw-r-r method) and nothing makes it stick after reboot. My SGS2 reverts back to the old Google Talk.
Hi,
First thing first Make Sure You Have Root access. i believe you have already rooted your phone.
to check root access use Root Check Basic (get it from android market)
This is Manual installation of gtalk
You Need Root Explorer (File Manager) for changing the permissions of \system\lib folder from R/O to R/W to copy libtalk_jni.so the file in \system\lib. Backup Your existing Gtalk files with Titanium Backup or Astro file Manager.
Download the GoogleTalk2.zip from page 1 unzip
1. Take Backup for existing Gtlak.
2. Delete the old Talk.odex and talk.apk from \system\app
3. Download both files, install gtalk2.apk
4. copy libtalk_jni.so run root explorer go to \system\lib change folder permissions from (Mouned R/O) readonly to (Mount R/W) ReadWrite rename the existing libtalk_jni.so to oldlibtalk_jni.so now Paste the copied libtalk_jni.so earlier to \system\lib Reboot Your Phone and Cross Your Fingers
I have tested on Samsung Galaxy S2 XXKI4 Android 2.3.5, and front camera video with voice working fine .
Hope this will Help.
Try This
Hi there,
I am just a noob, but tried Criskelo's latest rom and gtalk video works out of the box. Also this rom is much more better than the sgs2 stock rom.

[APP] HTC Calibrate VGA

Hi, I edited original HTC Calibrate app to work with VGA resolution (diamond, raphael..)
It is for easy calibrate touch screen from android system (any build, device with these resolution)
This app edit the ts-calibration file in ROM, not on sd card. For preservation change after reboot its important delete ts-calibration file from sdcard, but most builds without ts-calibration file doesnt boot :/

HtcCalibrate_WVGA.apk (91.9 KB) is from touch pro 2 section, its for WVGA devices
HtcCalibrate_origo.apk (99.9 KB) is from G2 (probably)
Nice work!
Why can't you just write to ts-calib in the app? Nothing will boot w/o a ts-calib. How could you even launch the calibration app then? lol.
Thank you for this, its just what i was hoping to find.
I'll try it tonight, i hope i can finally calibrate my diamond touch 2 screen.
cheers

works like a charm, now to find the file it creates, and transfer it to the root of the sd card so it can pick it up at boot time (ie replace my calibrate file with the one created by this awesome program).

Yes, it would be best if it just replaced the existing ts-calibration file...
If I remember good, ts-caliration file from this app is in /data/ folder, but for view/copy it you need root acess file browser.
Unfortunately i am not already using raphael because i bought htc desire and I havent free sd card for testing on raphael..
Did anyone ever find out where this app stores it's calibration data?

I found the file it creates in /sys/devices/virtual/input/input3/calibration_points
I copied it to the root of the root of the SD card and remamed it ts-calibration and it worked perfectly on next reboot.
I'm on a Rhodium running GBX0C with 3.3.6 kernel (using the WVGA version of course).

This is not even close to the proper section.
Also, the Desire HD has a capacitive screen - which means not only is calibration not necessary, but not even possible. Only resistive screens need calibration - and these screens are basically no longer being used (in phones at least).
Where are the APKs?

I see the zip files and have downloaded them. However there is no APK inside, only a couple other folders inside along with other files of which none have APK extension. Is there another installation method I dont know about or understand? Please help :crying:
Odd, I don't see any .zip files, all I see are .apk files. Have you attempted to install the files as they are from your device or have you attempted to open the .apk files on your computer? You only need one of the .apk files. One is for VGA devices, one is for WVGA and the other is the original (not sure as to what resolution that is for.

You're absolutely right when you say you only see "APK" - But, when you go ahead and click on the link, it downloads a zip. See for youyrself on the original post where the link is active. That is how I know and why I explained about what is inside the files that were downloaded; there is no apk files anywhere in what actually downloads. Maybe the link is flawed and connecting to another file the thread starter has. Idk but thanks for reading
Unfortunately, I am experiencing something different than what you are. (see below)
This is what happens when I click on the link:
Here is what appears in my folder:
I don't know if it is because I am running Google Chrome Portable or what. Are you using the links found at the bottom of THIS post?

Thanks to the reply that given by you to the others...
There is an alternative way to achieve it by using root explorer or equivalent.
Go to /system/app and delete the chinese superuser apk
Place the superSU.apk inside the /system/app and set permission to rw-r--r--
(Last time I've tried to download and install the superSU from playstore and update the binary but the superSU seems doesn't work if it didn't placed as system app. But if works for your phone then congratz)

Sorry for late reply....I mostly active in the i9001 forum and recently busying with my college project...Here you go~
You are just lucky that I didn't deleted that apk during I clean up the bloatwares by Alcatel~
Since the apk is odexed maybe you need the odex file as well..(It is a compressed file, not a CWM flashable)

For your issue, I can't test it out because I've deleted the one touch manager apk file inside my phone. However, in order to root this phone we do not need the help of the one touch manager. We install it just because we want the driver that came with the package.
You just straight away use the Root Master to check for the phone driver status etc, if everything ok the button at the bottom right will turn green. Click on the green button to root it and you are good to go
Hope it helps. Cheers

Yes I can help you.
First you need an explorer (like Root explorer, Nokia File Explorer, ...)
Then come to this folder: \system\etc\
or root\system\etc\
Then at the bottom you will see 2 file: "vold.fstab", "vold.emmc.fstab"
Open it with "Text Viewer" (the vold.fstab) then roll to bottom you will see something like:
dev_mount sdcard /storage/sdcard0 auto /devices/platform/msm_sdcc.1/mmc_host
dev_mount emmc /storage/sdcard1 21 /devices/platform/msm_sdcc.3/mmc_host/mmc0
Now change the sdcard0 with the sdcard1 then save.
Do it with the "emmc.fstab" then restart the phone and check...
I tried but... .

or root\system\etc\
Then at the bottom you will see 2 file: "vold.fstab", "vold.emmc.fstab"
Open it with "Text Viewer" (the vold.fstab) then roll to bottom you will see something like:
dev_mount sdcard /storage/sdcard0 auto /devices/platform/msm_sdcc.1/mmc_host
dev_mount emmc /storage/sdcard1 21 /devices/platform/msm_sdcc.3/mmc_host/mmc0
Now change the sdcard0 with the sdcard1 then save.
Do it with the "emmc.fstab" then restart the phone and check...

[SOLVED!!][Update!] MOD Full access for external SD-Card under Android 6 Marshmallow

hi guys,
i upgraded my z3c to the new marshmallow os, but i have no natively writing access to my external sd card.
the new api mounted my sdcard as "public:179,65" or "sd-serial". this is a crappy thing for older apps.
an example, i use grateful 1by1 music and nzb app. both apps can not use the new document provider api.
i have no idea what i can do. in cm13 is imo a patch integrated, but it's not separately available.
i try various mounting tools for the external sd but there doesn't work.
without full access for the sdcard the android mm is unusable for me.
is there a way for a solution?
many thanks
andreas
Update 1
one only hero has a solution for our problems.
the grateful member rufus.wilson found a solution.
he has implemented an idea from an other grateful member of this honorable forum, 65536
you can find the sdcard fix here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software/fix-extsd-fix-v1-0b-2016-01-18-t3296266
update 2
there is another solution: http://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/modules/xposed-marshmallow-sd-fix-write-t3403263
xposed module with grant access for selected apps
Update 3
also the module xinternalsd is a solution. you can try this.

yes, but for mm.
the fix from kk doesn't work for mm.
I researched this Problem and it seems Google changed it completely in Marshmallow. The Value that we could set in platform.xml before is now hardcoded into the system. On Marshmallow the Permissions are different and the App Developers need to update their App for Marshmallow to use SD Card. I give you a Example of how it works. On Marshmallow the App first needs to ask for AppOps Permissions and if you try to copy something on SD Card it will make use of the new Document API which will request RW access over Documents App where you need to select your External SD Card and after it should work fine. Root Explorer for example uses this Method on Marshmallow but the Problem is alot Apps arent optimized for Marshmallow yet which causes the issues alot have with SD Card. The only Solutions i could find is to format SD Card as Internal or write the App Developer to fix that.
http://www.e-howtogeek.com/54331/android-6-0-marshmallow-cannot-write-to-sd-card
I have found a Xposed Solution but im not sure if it will work with Marshmallow 6.0.1 but its worth a try.
You need Xposed Framework and the Module HandleExternalStorage to try it.

i know the new document provider.
also I contacted the devs from 2 apps, but there motivation is not high for a change to the new api.
Also I use xposed and I tried “handle external storage” and “xinternalsd” module.
Both works not for mm.
In my opinion is the format as internal not an option(speed, access).
When I use a beta xposed module and it bricks my phone, the internal sdcard data is lost.
Not a serious idea. I am not trust this crappy thing.
google has that stupid idea with the external sdcard from version to version. shaking my head.

what in 5.1 works, works not in 6.0. this solution is not useful.
the guys from cm13 have the same problem: http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...m13-external-sd-write-fix-apps-t3275394/page3
I'm eager for a solution as well. MM Concept is great because it has fully functioning adoptable storage, but I'm missing some stock Sony features so would like to give beta a try. However, currently MM Beta (and I'm assuming MM Official) is/are lacking the ability to install apps to SD and the Z3C's paltry 16 GB is nowhere near enough to accommodate all the apps I have installed.
+1 Need to fix this fu#@^n[ change!
+1 Why do I need an external SD if google refuses full access to my data. Why the users may not be master of their data? I hope a fix is in the pipeline.
What would the member say if Microsoft would restrict access to the hard drive. I think Windows would be a matter of days death. (
I hope a genial developer find a way to fix this. :good:

It's a pain for me because without my SD card my device is useless
Sony need to fix this
The only thing that works nicely for me is the OBB ON SD xposed module.
It only works with the /android/data and /android/obb folders from internal memory to external sd so it's not a full solution, but at least the huge .obb files are working from external sd, if you have big games it frees a lot of internal space.
Module is here:
http://repo.xposed.info/module/com.smartmadsoft.xposed.obbonsd
Don't forget to enable the "detect sd on android5/6" option in the module config. I also disable playstore hooks so playstore doesn't crash when updating some apps. This way playstore will not crash but the .obb's will be downloaded to the internal memory when updating apps, you need to manually move them to external sd after update.

Problem with this is - most of us just want r/w with our old apps and 3rd party apps, internal is still plenty storage space for apps, while some do offer to enable write access, many don't, and while this solution is sufficient for storage, i myself for example keep my entire 16gb open and put all my stuff on my 64gb sd. We only want r/w for apps, for most of us 16/32gb onboard is plenty for apps and games

No wonder why apps can't write to SD Card on my Z1C with cm13 the platform.xml fix doesn't work too , thanks for the info! I won't upgrade my z3c just yet
I have r/w access on external SD.
No fancy mod required, only full working root and updated busybox.
