When I copy one file size 5Kb in File Explorer it take time (Busy icon) then I go to Running program to stop, then the messages End Task appear, I cannot copy any thing form SD to phone ot from phone to SD, any one find this problem?
Remove any sd card u have, soft-reset ur device and explorer will be working again.
Regards
You are right, but I don't want to soft reset every time I copy file.
Now I found that problem, File Explorer will not responning after you change your boot image by using XDA2_bootimage_changer.CAB
anyone find other resolution?

Anyone find this problem, my File Explorer not response when I try to copy or delete some file. Onely End task can stop that error, event i make soft reset still come error again.
Thanks
I have a similar problem...
However, for mine, when I copy and paste a file, the "hourglass" keeps going and going and going. After a while I just press the X and close the application.
When I open it again the file I was moving is moved and everything is where it should be (ie. copy and paste was successful)
I've got the I-mate 1.72 rom

Same problem as yours... The problem doesn't exist if using third party explorer.
I have another problem which made me decided to hard-reset it: Whenever I install an apps or game, I could not find the newly installed program shortcut in \Windows\Start Menu\Programs or \Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Games, I would need to soft-reset my device to make it appear.
I know how to resolve this problem
first goto Start---Program---AutoConfig-- then change network you want or leave default your system will running smooth again.
DON"T WORRY, your data will not lose.
Thanks
Actually, there is an awesome program you can use instead of the MS File Explorer. I just installed this because of these headaches, works good!

Some reasons
1. No compatible new fonts (may be for dictionary) with File Explorer
2. No compatible new themes (ppc2002) with File Explorer
Solution
Delete new font from windows/fonts
Back to theme windows default then soft reset
Hi all! Whenever some friends of mine update their Twitter a/c in Hindi Language Fonts, am unable to read them as they show up us empty rectangular boxes. Wasn't Gingerbread 2.3.3 supposed to support Hindi Language Fonts? Anyone knows how to fix this?
I guess I will have to add the Hindi font ttf file in the "fonts" folder in my Root> System folder. I have the droidhindi.ttf file downloaded but I don't know how to copy it to the required folder in root. It does not show sytem files when connected to a Laptop via USB. I can view the folder in Root Explorer on my phone, but how to transport the droidhindi.ttf file to the Fonts folder in the phone??
And will it work if I just add the drop the droidhindi.ttf file in the Fonts folder? Anyone who knows this??
a lot of indians are buying this phone

ok this is what you need to do...
goto systems/fonts and take a backup of DroidSansFallback.ttf
move it to computer/sdcard...but keep it safe...
now move the droidhindi.ttf to systems/fonts
rename droidhindi.ttf to DroidSansFallback.ttf
restart the browser....by killing it from task manager and relaunching...
go to a hindi site....

@woodstock_ahem : Thanks a ton for your response. In a hurry right now, will do as you posted in my first free time. Hope it works
@woodstock_ahem : Ok, got down to acting upon your advice. But the problem is that I can only view the /sdcard directory of my phone when connected to my laptop via USB cable. I cannot access any other space in the phone except the /sdcard.
I can view the root files via the Root Explorer app on my phone, so I tried to Move the DroidSansFallback.ttf from the System>Fonts folder, but when I click on the Move command, I get the message that "You cannot move System Files as they are Read Only". So the problem I'm facing is HOW to transfer the new .ttf file from my laptop to the Fonts folder in System? I can neither transport the new file from my laptop to the Fonts folder in the phone coz that folder is not accessible when connected to the laptop, nor can I move the existing DroidSansFallback.ttf file anywhere else from the Fonts folder on the phone. So what to do now?
Just a piece of info which might be useful for you : My phone has KE8 Kernel, is rooted but reverted back to original kernel to remove the yellow triangle.

To alter any system files you need to set to R/W(read/write) if you keep it at read only you cant alter anything.(its designed as a protection)
On the top R/H conner of root explorer there is a button to set it to R/W or RO.
Hope this helps you.

To add to what @iznee has mentioned....
do the following:-
copy the droidhindi.ttf anywhere in the phone memory(after preferably creating a folder).. this doesnt need root explorer...just a file copy from the laptop should be enough... (you said you can see sdcard folder right ?... copy the file there)
i am guessing so far you have not used root explorer for anything else than browsing system files..else you wont be asking the question...
so first things first you have to provide root access to the root explorer app else you would not be able to provide it with r/w access...
install a free app superuser and give the root access allow to root explorer...
follow what @iznee has mentioned above
then follow what i advised in my first reply to this thread
@Iznee : "To alter any system files you need to set to R/W(read/write)".....this is what I had missed! Thanks a ton, your post was very helpful.
@woodstock_ahem : Thanks, Woody! Once I was able to change the option to r/w......rest was easy. Replaced the .ttf like you said. Now opening some hindi sites to test whether it works. And voila! it works! Thanks again to both of you
But one minor hiccup has occured. I've lost the Original DroidSansFallback.ttf file I'll tell you how. I had moved the original file to my sdcard>android folder. The original was a 4.5 MB file but it was showing as a .nomedia file with 0 bytes. So I thought let me move it to my Data Folder inside the Android folder from where I intended to transport the original file to my laptop, where I thought it would be safer. Till I moved the original file to my Android folder inside sdcard, the file was showing as normal (DroidSansFallback.ttf), but as soon as I moved it from there to my Data folder inside the Android folder it turned into a .nomedia file with 0 bytes! And when I moved it back to the android file it was still showing as a .nomedia file with 0 bytes.
So does this mean that Samsung is not allowing us to move the Original DroidSansFallback.ttf file outside the phone? I hope I will never need the original file as the file I replaced it with is working fine, but just in case I need it......now I don't have the original
Just as you got the droidhindi.ttf from the web you can get the lost file...you would also get it back when you update the next released firmware..or reflash ROM...plenty of ways...no big deal...this would be a learning point for you...

Ya, no big deal that I lost the original as the new one is working fine, so I won't miss the original. But my question was this.......does this mean that we cannot move system files of the phone outside the phone? How did the file change its filetype to .nomedia and its filesize to 0 bytes from 4.5MB?
i had not elaborated on how to copy a file from the phone memory to the computer assuming that is too simple to write about it...
i dont see any problem here...the learning point for you is..always...always create a new folder for taking backups...and not just move a file into a systems library..
this equates to dowloading a music file into c:\windows\system32\data as an example...why not have a separate folder for it..
i have taken a copy of DroidSanFallback.ttf into a new folder created in both Sdcard phone folder as well as into a folder created into external_sd (which is a separate physical sd card)...
can move it back and forth to/from computer without issues...
this will work for any kind of file..any extension...
so there is no issue here...
Guys I need HELP here...
My Go To Documents Files Folders become .exe
and because of that, i can't view, add, nor delete any files

I searched on app store and found ese file explorer
Installed it and successfully run it
BUT the rename thing doesn't seems to work
I renamed a .exe file sample download.exe
A long hold press, then rename, the rename was good but
the file type is still a file not folder,
And I don't have any idea on how to change the file type
Does ese explorer app doesn't do the work?
Should I try your suggested app?
Or no Choice just to reset my phone?
Thanks for the quick reply
btw guys, i fixed my .exe problem, by doing a factory reset,
but for those guys who have the same problem and don;t want to do factory reset
replies and solutions for this problem is still welcome

I installed Easy Unrar, Unzip & Zip from Goolge play to unzip a zip folder on my phone. It didn't work at all, besides, it created a folder (with strange character name) which can not be deleted. It's 0 byte, can be opened but is empty. Can not create anything inside. I tried deleting with Astro file manager, nothing happened, the folder still there. I tried deleting from my PC, it said the 'Cannot delete the folder. Storage is protected. Remove the write-protection and try again'. The strange folder is on my internal memory. I don't have a memory card installed. Please help.
I can delete any other things on my phone. The file name of the zip I tried to unzip is not English, which I suspect might be the problem?

ive encountered this too. can someone help us or did you already fix this? I think it has a chinese character like.apk but when you open. it opens as if it was a folder. but you cannot delete, rename, move or copy. even through desktop operations failed. and also its shows the date accessed in a year 1970. i tried to edit my date settings hoping that I might delete it but this note 2 has a minimum of year 2000. help thanks
Try to install clean master and open it. Press junk file and standard. Allow it to scan. It shld have a residual folders place. Just scan it with standard and advanced. See if it is still thr. Btw. U can unzip zip files with File Expert.

I have two separate issues which I believe are caused by the same thing.
1. When I try to alter platform.xml in the /system/etc/permissions folder via ES File Explorer to enable 3rd party apps to have write capability to the SD card, the edit is unsuccessful and my phone reboots. When I pull a copy of the file to my PC, alter it, and then try to push it via ADB, the same thing happens. I previously used the ADB pull/push method to edit my hosts file and had success with that after doing it while in Recovery, but this time around both ways (in recovery and with the device booted up) result in my device rebooting. For the SD card fix, I've also tried the app that does it for you and encounter the same issue.
2. When attempting to update the SuperSU binary, the update fails my device reboots. This happens with either update method - normal and recovery.
So both issues seem to have the same root cause... my phone will not allow any editing of system files. Anyone have any suggestions?
For reference I'm on a Galaxy Note 4 (model SM-N910T) on T-Mobile.
Baseband version N910TUVU1ANJ7
Android version 4.4.4 (stock ROM)
Kernel version 3.10.0-2796035
Build number KTU84P.N910TUVU1ANJ7
I'm also running Wanam Xposed - not sure if that has anything to do with anything but just fyi.
Thanks
bump... anyone have any ideas?

I have the stock .xml in there right now... my problem is that I want to replace it, but I can't because my phone reboots every time I try.

Is your Phone is rooted? If yes:
place the altered .xml somewhere in your sd card.
1. Install an app called Total Commander.
2. Navigate to the location where your stock file is located.(delete it)
3. Now goto sd card where you placed your altered file.
4. Tap on Icon of the .xml file, You will see a green tick mark on it.
5. When your file is selected. Tap on Copy/Move to Icon.( u will see two files one on one with a blue arrow)
6. Now Click on '>>' button to browse the location where you have to Copy/Move the File.
7. Now Tap Copy if You want a backup placed in sd card of the file or move if you just want one file to be there.
(Through all the Process I am assuming that your phone is rooted and you Have Granted SuperUser permissions to Total Commander)

I'm assuming this will end with the same result as when I try it through ES File Explorer. ES has the same capability and I have given it root access already. Something is causing all attempts to alter system files to fail, regardless of root access.

This was not successful. Anyone else have any ideas? I tried posting logs in the SuperSU update failure thread, with the logic that if I get that issue fixed my other issue will be resolved also, but Chainfire hasn't responded to any of the requests in a while.
