Let's say you have an apk file on your SD card. How would you install the apk file? Terminal emulator, using which commands or another way?
By the way, ASTRO File Manager vs. ES File Explorer, which one and why?

I looked through the market and couldnt find anything. Dont know if it even exists but is there a file manager out there that give the option to display audio files my their title instead of by their filename?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI used AdFree on my Incredible. When I would run Wireless Tether, it would also block ads on my PC. I never even got a single YouTube, Pandora, or Hulu ad. I don't know exactly how it was done; it just worked.
Now, I'm on a rooted Rezound using AdAway. It blocks ads on my device, but not on my PC when tethered as AdFree did on my Incredible. I tested by accessing one of the blocked URLs in the hosts file...it was blocked on my device, not on my PC.
I thought maybe the webserver needed to be enabled, but no, that wasn't it. I've tried with both AdFree and AdAway, cleared DNS cache, etc. Is there some setting I'm missing in either Wireless Tether or AdAway? I know it's possible somehow; I've changed nothing on my PC and it worked perfectly on my Incredible.
I downloaded app from Google Play Stores , and i want to back up to file .apk with ES File Explore Manager, but it's failed. backup it ,because i want to reset factory my phone ?

There are a few folders on my SD Card that I occasionally need to access (I currently use Root Explorer for this), which have various types of files in them. I would like to place a widget on one of my home screens so that I can directly have the file manager open up to a desired folder location.

How come this is the only file manager on the market (that I've found... I went through quite a few) that can open an HTML file from your SD card? I was a loyal user of Estrogen until I found that it couldn't.

I was able to install CyanogenMod-5.0.8 but now it is stuck on the animation screen. When I boot using ClockworkMod it Shows this message:
E:Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p2
(File exists)
E:Can't mount CACHE:recovery/command
I tried to undo the rooting with the PB31IMG.zip but it will not let me load it.
I was following the directions for getting Adfree to work here, but I am having some problems. After I download and install hosts from the program, there is no "hosts" folder in my SD card.
View 8 Replies View Relatedi take no credit for this, just found it over on XDA. Here's how to get this working
1. Search for Adfree Android on the market
2. Install and run
3. allow it to download and install new hosts file, it will copy it to your sdcard and try to replace /system/etc/hosts but fail (it should reboot the phone shortly)
3a. Phone may reboot, this is fine, don't worry. if it doesn't reboot, check your SD card for a file simply named "hosts". if it's there, then continue on.
4. Power off the phone and hold Volume Down and power.
5. Use volume down to select recovery
6. In clockwork recovery volume down to "partitions menu" and hit the track pad to select
7. Select "mount /system", "mount /sdcard" and "mount /data"
8. Plug in your usb cord and open a command line on your pc
9. enter adb shell and type: cp /sdcard/hosts /data/data/hosts (This copies the AdFree hosts file from the SD Card to the /data partition, where it can be edited by AdFree)
10. mv /system/etc/hosts /system/etc/hosts.bak (This renames the current hosts file, rather than deleting it, should you ever want to remove AdFree and return to the original hosts file)
11. ln -s /data/data/hosts /system/etc/hosts (This creates a symbolic link, which allows AdFree to edit the hosts file stored in /data while allowing the OS to use the file as if it were stored in /system. You won't need to reboot into recovery each time you want to update the hosts file!)
12. Reboot and enjoy.
EDIT: updated with new method. just did this myself and it works great. it updates on it's own now.
ANOTHER EDIT: I just had a guy PM me asking "what if the phone doesn't reboot on step 3?"
it may or may not reboot. bottom line is that we want the "hosts" file to get downloaded from Adfree onto our SD card. so if the phone doesn't do an instant reboot when getting the hosts, just check your SD card for a file named "hosts". if it is there, then you are good to continue on and follow the rest of the steps. let me know if you need any further help. i did it the old way about a week or so ago, and then did it the new way last night so that i could have Adfree automatically update the hosts file on its own. the new method does work flawlessly.
I wiped my phone and installed Darchdroid 2.8 this morning. Now when I try to update Adfree Android's hosts, it gives me the following error: "Failed to remount system partition read-write" It worked on 2.8 before the wipe & flash.

View 5 Replies View RelatedSo I have been hearing/reading about File Managers, and I am just not sure if this is really a necessary thing? Am relatively new to the smartphone scene, but so far am enjoying my HTC Desire immensely.What are the pro's and con's of a File Manager? As a noob, is this something I even need? My phone is not rooted.I assume a file manager is to look at the contents of the SD card and move things around, but since my phone is so smart doesn't it do this already, putting things where they should be? Maybe I misunderstand the File Manager application? How many users have a File Manager?

If I clear Internet downloads, then astrid will be gone?
