Or, Tillanosoft's is even simpler....
http://tillanosoft.com/
However Tillanosoft's cannot open files larger than 300kb.. Which actualy sucks and I don't see any use for it then (and better not talking about their tgetfile). I can open files up to 100kb and more in PocketIE...

Neither Orneta Notepad is perfect. If I choose go to the end of cca 300 kB TXT document, it just dont do anything. It sucks. Have to use Documents To Go for editing these larger files.
Yeah it sucks. I just need to open and not edit the document (Notepad x Lister in Windows XP). But like in Windows, it opens for editing... So I also have to use DTG for opening larger text files...

Hey,
does any of you know of any .ODT reader or editor (OpenOffice files). I want to open it on my qtek and not save it on my desktop to that crappy .DOC and upload it on my phone..
Thanks a bunch
I bet there's no such ODT reader/editor. If you dont like DOC why dont you use RTF? I believe the only way how to read ODT on smartphone is to open the archive and read it with all the elements (or open OO through VNC).

Coz for me, RTF is the biggest mistake ever. First it has just basic formating options. Second, it's like advanced TXT. Try comparing it with DOC and you'll see.
So now i'm doing it two ways - using the DOC, which takes lots of space actually, documents from my company are up to 30MB and I am not using just one or two documents, and the second way how i'm doing it now is that I am really unziping the ODT file and reading the raw XML file.. Not that comfortable...
Well, anyhow, just tried lol
Is there anyway to convert the files from png to jpg? I've tried renaming it, but it can't load, and izzit possible to change the default screen shots to jpg files instead?

You cannot convert file format by simply changing extension. It will not change the file itself, only the name. If you are a Windows user you can simply get Picasa from Google (it’s free) or any other of a whole bunch of free picture managers and/or editors and convert all you want. Even basic Paint has an option to “Save as…” and you can choose a format. But you have to convert, not only rename the file.

I found "File Converter Free" at Play Store. But it will upload your file to cloud, convert it and download back to phone. I do not like this kind of solutions to be honest. And I haven’t found any software that would do the conversion on the phone. Sorry

u can use Xplore for editing/modifying or creating txt file...
on the other hand, u can use Note Everything for running a lyrics library
but, as u just require a txt file editor, I'll strongly recommend Xplore

I'm was trying to save space on my phone and I had this pop up which is what lead to my question.
Here's a screenshot...
I'm not sure, but I guess you'd be able to find them by connecting to PC and search for .raw files?
Or try a file manager on your phone and search the same.
If no avail: take a bunch of pictures in RAW, then connect to PC and run WinDirStat. It sorts directories big to small, taking into account subfolders and makes a very graphical overview: easy to spot big files.

I'm trying to open and see a lot of files from my HP notebook running windows 10. There's files like "data" and "bin" and "dot". Some are "db" files. Hell there's even their type just says "file". What's the best app that can open and view these types of files on Android? Or do I need to get a app for that on the laptop?

Just Curious! Why on earth does anybody need to open system files manually?

Depends on what the contents of those files are. The file extensions don't provide much of an indication. "data" could refer to ANYTHING. "db" is probably a database file, maybe sqlite? Or maybe not. Who is to know?

.bin is a binary file. It and a .db (database) file cannot be read using a text editor. I will guess the same issue will occur trying to view a .data file. Even viewing them on a laptop is problematic as they aren't in a human-readable form. The only exception to the above would be if the files have had their file extensions changed from their originals.
Outside of that exception the only way I can think of to view information inside of these files is with a Windows hex editor like HxD, and even then what you see will be limited. Regardless, I wouldn't bother with Android for this task, even though I'm sure Android has hex editors. The laptop's screen makes such work easier than on Android.

Lol for the sake of plain curiosity. I'm new to a lot of this so I'm not sure what is and isn't possible or in this case practical.

So basically the juice ain't gonna justify the squeeze for this. Alright. Thank you for letting me know this is basically a waste of time. I'm new to all this and was just poking around in the laptop and kept running into **** I couldn't read is all.

Don't poke too hard. If you don't know what you're doing you could alter or delete an important file and wreck your Windows install. If that happens you get to spend a few hours restoring your laptop.

I appreciate the warning but it's a little late for that. Soft bricked my pixel 6 "poking around" with stuff I didn't know. That's how I ended up here in the first place. Nah I learned my lesson after that whole clusterf*ck. Now before I actually mess with it I come ask people far more experienced and knowledgeable than me. Like you for example. Thank you for being patient and answering my noob questions.
