[Q] Other Users and Guest Account's downloaded files - Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A

As the main "Admin" user, am I able to see/view files that guests or other user accounts have downloaded through a file manager? (Currently use ES File Explorer)
If I am able to, I haven't been able to find out where those files they download are stored on the device storage.
help?
Thanks!

HTC TP2 ROM manipulation

Yesterday, I tried copying the HTCSendorSDK.dll through ActiveSync. I got Access Denied and though that the dll must be in use. Then I used File Browser on the phone to copy the file to another folder. It said that it can't copy a file included in the ROM. I haven't made any other changes and since then Opera and Weather don't connect. Internet Explorer is able to browse the web, vxUtils says I have two valid IPs and I'm able to use HTTP GET and Ip lookups.
Any ideas if me attempting to copy the ROM included file screwed something up?
Any other ideas for troubleshooting?
Thanks
Chris
use something like total commander to copy the file.
you should be able to find a .cab to install total commander, which will allow you to copy or move the file.

You can always delete replaced files that were in rom. This will make the system revert to the original file that was overwritten. This always works without issue unless the overwritten file was something that gets changed or updated like certain .ini files, etc...
for overwritting system files, I recommend Resco file explorer. It is hands down the best file/registry explorer/editor. Google beta 2 for a free trial.

Map network drive app?

I have a network drive at my home, is there any app that i can map network drive? Meaning i can acess the drive from my desire?
thanks
ASTRO File Manager has a SMB module. You could try that.
If by mapping you mean mounting, your device must be rooted and using a kernel with CIFS support.
You can then use CifsManager to manage your cifs/nfs network shares.
If you just need to browse or download files from your NAS to your phone, ASTRO or ES File Explorer will be fine.
If you want any application to be able to access your NAS seamlessly like it was a local folder, you will need CIFS support.
I just need to browse, view and delete files so ill use astro.
I need some help setting it up.
What do I enter in the server, share, domain and directory fields?
Which field do I enter the IP and the shared folder name?

[Q] How to transfer files?

Hello, i was wondering how to transfer files on Two android devices, via WIFI tether example two devices have Wi-Fi On and how they can transfer files between send/receive?
Is there any application like this or something..?
thanks in advance
Try Bump or Hoccer, they both send the files via internet. If you want a local solution, set up ftp on one and access it from the other with any capable file manger (i.e. ES File Explorer).

[Q] ES File Explorer Internet Access Setup

I am using ES File Explorer and have set it up to include all my cloud storage as well as shared folders on my LAN. All works great over Wi-Fi but have not managed to figure out how to set it up to access my LAN shared folders remotely over Internet.
Is it possible and if yes can you please let me know how or point me to some instructions.

Hi. If no one else has any other ideas, you can try the developer of the app. If this is the app here FolderSync, it shows the developer information as:

Why an Android file manager can't open folders under /Android
File managers aren't supposed to be able to access folders under /Android, but a loophole let them. Android 13 closes that loophole.

In android 13, data and obb folders are blocked. Tried many file managers with root to copy game data in obb folder but failed. Even the Xposed module "no storage restrict" did not worked. Finally copied data through browsing "/data/media/0/Android/obb". You may try this with root.
I am using Evolution X 7.1 on Redmi Note 11.
There are some file managers that are catching up with this. MiXplorer and FV File Manager have updated to allow access to /Android/data & /obb directories in Android 12+.
Now I have access to Android/Data & Android/Obb but I can't paste any file to these folders. I use ES File Explorer. I don't want to use other file manager like MiXplorer and make the trick of splitting screen with drag & drop so that to write files to the above paths. How to make it in the ES File Explorer or if it exists some magisk or xposed module in which to disable this restriction and to be like in Android 12 in which we didn't have any problem in accessing or writing any file to above paths ?

This is your problem right here. ES File Explorer stopped working properly upon release of Android 11 or 12. I discontinued my modded versions of the app at that time and switched to something that DOES work.
Get another file manager.
This File Manager tends to work in A13, I moved from ES a long time ago when they removed some features, https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.lonelycatgames.Xplore .

When I went to Android 13 then I had ES File Explorer which didn't have access to Android/Data. Then I found ES File Explorer v4.4.0.2.1 which has the ability to have access to Android/Data but it hasn't the ability to write (via copy - paste) to Android/Data. This problem doesn't exist only to ES File Explorer but in all File Managers which I have used like File Manager+, File, MiXplorer, Xplore etc... The MiXplorer which can write to Android/Data not be done via copy - paste but via some trick by splitting screen and drug-drop the file which is some intermediate solution. If it is found some solution which can work the copy - paste to Android/Data then this will work to all File Managers which means that the problem isn't that the ES File Explorer is deprecated. May exist some magisk module or lsposed module which deactivate the SAF (Storage Access Framework) permission in which wasn't enabled in Android 12.

ES File Explorer, as I said in my previous post, no longer works with current versions of Android. This is because there is no one working on its code. No one to fix bugs when they appear. No one to ensure root functions continue to work. No one to enable proper access to Android/data.
There are file managers out there that are not ES File Explorer, and while you have tried some, you've not tried them all. I tried Root Explorer just now and had no problems copying files to /Android/data in internal storage; no tricks or workarounds needed. So I stand by my statement. Especially as the file manager I now use doesn't have this issue.
