What's the best file manager with root enabled? (possibly free )
Sent from my MB525
for me is file expert
File Expert does the job for me
I like Astro. It has all the usual tools of any file manager, and it remembers the settings of each folder like windows explorer in PC.
No root mode for both of them or do I need glasses?

Ooops sorry FE doesn't have root access as yet.
You can probably manually give Astro root permissions, but it does not ask for them by itself. Instead, it just states 'insufficient permissions'.
I myself prefer Root Explorer. It's basic, but because of that, not cluttered with features I do not need in a file manager.
I've been using Super Manager.
The free version gives you root explorer capabilities, including R/W.
Some features are locked down unless you pay, such as the ability to directly open/edit files in the root explorer function but a quick'n'dirty workaround is to copy the file in question to the SD card, edit it to your hearts content and paste it back over the original.
Same as above - super manager seems ok

I've just started using super manager as i needed to instal apps to the system/app file and couldn't do it with File Expert. Quite like SM now and it does what i need.
Root explorer is great! I use the paid version for all my tasks, but I will try super manager as it seems to have many followers!
i also use root explorer, try the free version, i went for the paid one. it's very easy too use
I have tried out a couple(ES, FE Astro) but I really like Super Manager after having used it.
The amount of options and tweaks and the free root access combined with a solid ui makes it an easy choice for me.
For those that dont know.
ES File Explorer (free) works just fine with root. Here is a trick. I just stumbled upon it while trying to mess with it.
Settings -> Home Directory
change home directory to be "\" instead of "\sdcard\"...
waaalaa, it's there....i was able to edit a file, didnt try saving it.
give it a shot and let us know..

If you tried saving it, you'd have seen ESFE pop up an error message. Its root capabilities only work on a couple of custom ROMs.
the best file manager is the ADB shell
but super manager is OK too.
i want to know which filemanager is the best! i probobly use at most eFile and sometime root exploerer becouse of dropbox
Which one is the best for you!
I like eFile becouse of the first page where i see the memory the appspace and sd card usage!
ASTRO File Manager
For me, I like File Expert

You just like root manager because it can mount in root modus but i think when it could not do that(i mean root modus), it would not even on the 10th place ... there is one positiv aspect of root manager, when you use dropbox you dont need a secound explorer

i use eFile i woulr recommend it to every one, because of the first page when you open the manager i also used astro, but if you play with the setting in astro you get 3 or 4 new apps in your drawer ;(
I prefer Root Explorer. Only this app can set permissions for system files.

That is the reason why i wrote "Root Explorer (dont vote just becouse of the root)" because you must use this app to edit your root there are no other apps that can do that!
But my question is which is the best File Manger. And i must say i have also Root explorer but i never set the permisions to write(delete) in the root files. and i recommend that to everyone if you delete something wrong you need to restore your whole system so you shold always have a back up before doing such a stupid thing

It has everything you need.
File Expert
File Expert here, mainly due to the ability to serve my files via wireless (http server or ftp server) with one touch
Root Explorer is the most professional and usefulness
but Astro is good...

Using Explorer and Root Explorer. Find 10 differences
Hey Guys
I`m having problems with copy a file to system/framework.
There is always an error that tells me it is just readable and i`m not allowed to copy the file there.
Help please
Change atribution; files must be RW. Use root explorer; its easy.
Using Root Explorer , and you can change the R/O to R/W just one click.
you can also get ES File Explorer to do so if you like ES.
I have a rooted nook tablet with CW7 installed, also have ES File Explorer installed on as well, Looked in for a System file to change to Nexus or something else so I could D/L AngryBirds Space for the kids.. I'm a noob by most standards but can figure out quite a bit if someone can point me in the right direction here..
Thanks;..
Go into ES File Explorer settings. Scroll down until and make sure Root Explorer and Mount File System are checked. Go back to ES File Explorer's home screen and hit the Favorites tab. You should now be able to find the build.prop.
