Hi!
I`ve the following problems:
1. Preinstalled file manager works fine with stock Email,
but it isn`t integrated with stock Browser and Gmail: I`m not able to attach
any file except music or picture, however after installation of
alternative file manager like ES File Explorer, Browser and Gmail got intergrated,
but stock Email still can`t see ES File Explorer or any other alternative except default one
MyFiles.
Is it possible somehow to tweak MyFiles.apk to be fully integrated, or tweak Email.apk
in order to allow use alternative file manager for attachement???
2. The same problem in regarding preinstalled Polaris Office which isn`t intergrated as well,
`cause stock Browser, Email or Gmail can`t see Polaris Office to attach office docs, like you are
able to do with Documents. However I`ve extracted Polaris Office with all libs and installed
it on Oxygen AOSP 2.3.7 ROM and it`s fully integrated.
Is it possible somehow to tweak Polaris Office.apk for full integration, or maybe moving it to
/data would make it possible???
Guys, really hope somebody has an answer, 'cause it's really important and may be valuable for others
as well to avoid tone of apps to perform unique task.

Hi,
I've successfully rooted my branded Optimus 1, and removed some pre-installed apps. However, I cannot remove or delete any pre-loaded bookmarks in browser. Anyone knows how this can be done? Thanks.
I had the same problem and solved it using these things:
- a rooted Optimus One
- Root Explorer
- SQLite Editor
1. Using Root Explorer browse to /data/data/com.android.browser/databases/
2. Open browser.db and then the database table "bookmarks"
3. Change the values in the column "readonly" from "1" to "0" as you please
4. Now you'll be able to delete the bookmarks the normal way
Good luck
The solution works, though it seems to be a long way and a bit of effort I can now delete all the preloaded bookmarks. Thank you.
Procedure isn't that bad. SQLite Editor gives access without Root Explorer (assuming device is rooted). I ran the Editor, chose "Browser" as the application, then "browser.db", then "bookmarks", selected the cell under "readonly" (waayy to the right), pressed menu key for "Edit Field".
...one less trait of branding, without flashing a new ROM.
Thanks for this thread.
hi,
I don't want to start a new thread with the same topic.
After I modify the /data/data/com.android.browser/databases/ browser.db file the browser won't start, I get an error "the application browser has stopped unexpectedly"
If I delete the browser.db file the browser makes a new one with the preinstalled bookmarks, so I think there is a second place where the bookmarks and settings are.
So please, can someone help me get rid of the preinstalled bookamarks, because there are a lot of them and set as favorite .
EDIT: I tried to uninstall the browser and reinstall using this LINK but still same thing. there is something that verifies the browsers bookmarks or something like that...
I was wanting if anyone out there knows the name and location of the folder where all the preloaded default apps that are installed on the A101IT are when the device is booted for the first time out-of-the-box because I don't like them being on my app list at all and want to completely get rid of them?? I thought I saw the folder once before but I tried going back into the system via my root access but I can't remember where the folder that contains them is? Please help me!
(I.E. - The respectively named default apps: Yellow-colored Music app (Version 2.2.1) for playing music files, black-colored Video app (Version 2.2.1) for playing video files, the white and blue-colored globe internet Browser (Version 2.2.1), the yellow-colored File app (Version 1.0.0) for file browsing, and finally the Home Screen Tips app.
Thanks to anyone who can find it and help me delete these!
You need to root and then you can remove the files from the system/app folder. You will not be able to do this with out root and if your not careful you can really mess stuff up.
Also, do some reading around here as this is already covered in this forum.
Thanks wolf, that worked like a charm & I don't see those any more!
Hey, I've been searching for the Moto Phone Portal, but have only found V1 which apparently does not have the file explorer. Any way to get V2 or just a version with a wifi file explorer?
If you're only interested in a wifi file explorer/manager i would suggest to try webkey from the market, free, easy to use and doesn't require to install anything on the pc, any browser will work fine.
Me too
ok so on CM7 we don't have phone portal. I installed v.029 and V1 and i can't backup my contacts or import the.csv file to phone... very annoying. Tried to restore with Titanium... no luck. I guess the old ones have compatibility issues with the 2007CSV format. It asks for a 2003... but i have Office 2007... and it cannot save in the older format.
Overall how do i put my .Csv and .Bak files back on the phone?
Can anyone please extract the phone portal.
Hello!
This may sound like a dumb question but how do I search for a document (pdf, doc xls...) which I know is the SD card but I don't remember where exactly?
If use the search feature, even though I remember the file name, it wont find anything, is there a plugin or another app to install to be able to search for files on the phone?
I have an Xperia Mini Pro SK17i
If you do a search in the market for Explorer. Explorer will search both the files on the phone and the files on your memory card. Explorer is a free app. The makers of Explorer also have an app call Root Explorer which has further options for rooted phones. Both are great
Thank you!
But isn't it ironic that a Master of Search like Google didn't put a simple file search feature in his OS? :-/
I use astro file manager, pretty fast
I just downloaded File Expert which is a file explorer and allows you to create an FTP or Web server on the phone to access the file via wifi. Haven't tested yet but seems pretty cool
Hello everybody ,
Untill this morning, I was using Chulri's permanent root (stock OS removed) on my A101IT, but I ran out of space for apps, so I decided to try UrukDroid. I installed it and I really like it.
The standard files explorer is replaced by "File Expert". That's really great, coz I was using it with Chulri's root too. But there's one little problem. I can't seem to write on my Samsung S2 (portable HDD) with File Expert, which I could with the stock file browser. I can access it trough mnt\storage\usb_host, but copying a file to the S2 isn't working. I removed the stock OS and I'm not planning on installing it again, so is there someone who can think of a solution or an app who solves the problem? Or is there someone who has the Chulri-root and can backup the stock file browser (with Titanium Backup) and can send me the apk?
Thanks!
(Sorry if I formulate things wrong, I'm Belgian and my English isn't always great.)
Es file explorer is much beter in my opinion for these situations.
I use it for network explorer and root explorer and it works perfectly.
I installed EZ and now I can copy to the usb_host-folder.
Thanks for the tip. Strange though that it doesn't work with File Expert...
You could also try dual file manager. My favorite daily use file manager.
