did you enable read hidden folder option in es file explorer.
You created a hidden file. then it should then be listed in the root menu.

Will someone please help me get root access with ES File Explorer?
I was looking for a good file explorer utility with a root explorer feature. I already had ES File Explorer installed and saw that it supposedly has a root explorer feature. Well, I've searched all through it and I must be missing something because I can't find any way to explore anything on my NT except for the sd card.
I've went into the settings, down to the Root settings and checked Root Explorer and Mount File System but this hasn't seemed to help. I see no way to "get to" the root directory. If I try using the up arrow to move up a level in the directory tree, I can't get up any further than the sd card. It just say press again to close.
What am I missing?
Thanks to anyone that may be able to help get to where I want to be.

In settings, and you need to set home directory as "/". Then you'll have access to the entire file system.
What tgraves said as I have complete access to my nook with Es File explorer.
duh! That was so easy. Now I really feel like an idiot.
I think my wife is right. Sometimes I can make even the simplest things seem soooo hard...
Thanks for your help guys.

Not a problem
I wanted to say thanks as well as I was wondering the same thing today, didn't think it would be so simple as just changing the home
ES File Explorer Root
Good tip.
Thanks
don't worry... this was a great thread to start because i just found it with google and was looking for this answer also!
whoot!
Tell your wife she's always right
Trust me...
If you don't want to change your home directory to '/', you hit favorites and hit the icon that looks like a phone. That should take you to '/'. I think that's what the icon looked like. Anyways it's in the favorites menu.

I had been looking for the exact same thing. Thanks for your help.
I have the little phone icon so I assume I'm in the root directory. Next question - since this is where the additional 12 GB of space is, is there a "best place" to put my files that I don't want to tote around on my sd card? We're talking music, docs, etc.
Also - Is there a method so I can see "/" when connected to my laptop? Would rather move files directly to the root directory than have to copy to sd card then copy/paste to "/"
I find root explorer to be better.

in the setting, tick all the boxes for "root settings" then from the "/" directory, you will be able to access the internal storage and others ( sd, 1gb space allowance)
What I meant was, is there any specific folder under "/" that I should put my own stuff in, or maybe create a new one?
B&N put all the reserved free space in '/data'. See this thread for workarounds. Accessing it via USB is another story, so you'll probably need to copy files to the 1gb partition then move it. Another option would be to use Wifi File Manager. Depending on the speeds you get via USB it may not be a bad alternative.
When using ES File Explorer to move music files from /data to /data/media it says "invalid path." When I tried moving it to a new folder I created under /data, it also failed.
Questions:
1. Is every folder under /data locked away from access thru ES File Explorer?
2. Is my only option to store content directly under /data?
Root the Access.
hi..
I have ES File Explorer installed and i want to install other font(.ttf). but when try to copy from sdcard and paste in '/system/font' folder, it shows an error : copy failed.
In Setting --> Root Setting, only first two options are enabled 1) Root Explorer and 2) Up to Root. other two 3) Mount File System and 4) Backup System Apps are disabled.
Also, when I try to check 1st one Root Explorer, it shows an error:
When 'SU Request' dialog popup, please select 'always allow'

Have you enabled Root Explorer's "Mount R/W"?
Guyz help ive been searching through XDA but coudlnt find any specific answer bout
this, when i try to boot my phone a 'logo.jpg' draw failed in the screen..
can someone give me the stock splash screen logo?
I've had the same problem after a major flash-attack
Use your preferred file explorer with root access, and navigate to /.lfs
If you can't see the folder, enter the file explorers settings-menu and set it to show hidden files
Look in this folder and see if you have a file called l0g0.jpg
If you have this file, copy (not move) it to your sdcard, and rename the copy to logo.jpg
Now copy the renamed (logo.jpg) file back to /.lfs
Reboot, and enjoy
I recommend you to use Solid Explorer or ES File Explorer

I know this should go into the development forum for MeanBean but being a new member it will not let me post there.
I'm trying to add an app or two to the whitelist but I cannot find the /data/MeanBean.wl file. I've flashed the zip and have tried searching for it in ES File Explorer in root mode but have had no luck. Any pointers????

what zip did you flash? Because if you flashed whitelist-template.zip it should be there. /data/MeanBean.wl.
i wouldn't maked it yourself. It is made in a particular way that needs to set correctly. I would try reflashing the zip again.
Remember to go to post 3 to learn how to add the apps you want to the whitelist.

So far I've tried flashing it twice. I'll go into File ES Explorer and do a search for /data.MeanBean.wl. but the search returns no files. Do you happen to know exactly what folder this gets put into?
Disregard, read it wrong.

Make sure Es Explorer is set up to root.
/data
there should be a file MeanBean.wl
I just tried doing a search in Es Explorer and it doesn't see it either
its in the data folder

When I got to ES Explorer and try to open up the file, it asks me what to open it as. I say "text" (makes the most sense, right?), but then it doesn't do anything and gives me the error "Unsupported file". What am I doing wrong?

Root Explorer & ES File Explorer File Manager
On ES File Explorer File Manager, on the Left Pane (If you swipe from the very left of the screen towards the center), scroll down to the Tools, click on that and down it should be an option : "Root Explorer", make sure it's ON! After that force close the File manager and try to open this time. Let me know how it goes.

Try ES File Explorer, and enable the "root explorer" option as you see in the print screen.
Nothing works. Even via recovery I can't touch the files.
