Hi to all. First of all, I've tried to search but I got to ask since I can't find this topic anywhere.
Ok. Does anybody know how I can open a file with the extension *.txt with my preferred program? When I click directly on the filename, the text is opened in Word Mobile. I would like to just click the filename and don't open my application before I can edit my file. I'm using another application that I prefer for editing my txt files. All suggestions are welcome
use total commander to associate file extensions with programs if your pref
or do it manually using a reg-editor
Thanks for the reply. But if I associate from TC, it still open with MW when I start any txt file from todayscreen, (from within PocketPlus). I suppose that using the TC only work when you open from TC? So I'll try to use a reg.edit. and see what happens. Thanks again.
you can use Schap's Advanced Configuation and change file associations..
I've tried Adv Conf 3.3, but still the Mobile Word opens my txt files
what do you use to open them? you might have specific file associations in your file browser.
what about resco explorer? it works to fix this problem in my device
I prefer the NeboPad, and the registry sais that my txt files should be opened with NeboPad. It seems that MS override this, during the copyright
this is impossible. assiciations are set via OS.. if you set a specific association in Adv Config.. it'll work for the OS unless you're using a file manager that opens using its own preferences. try another file explorer like Resco
I'm running it from Spb Pocket Plus and not from any file explorer. In the Advanced Configuration 3.3 it's stated that file with the extension of *.txt, should be opened with \Program Files\NeboPad\NeboPad.exe. But still it's opened with Mobile Word. I think I'll have to go back to Notes with the *.pwi extension. Anyway, thank's for trying.
Regards
if you use notes and it works thru Spb Pocket Plus it means that this NeboPad is the problem, not your association.

Well. I've tried a lot of editors and pad programs by this time, but every time I try to open a TXT file, it comes up in PWORD. This must be something in the OS itself I belive. Or has anyone managed it to work?
At last!
Finally I've found a program that's works. It's MobilePad (nice too).

I am trying to run a custom executable on my schubert. I can send the file to my email as a zip and then open it. Wp7 gives a warning saying 'do you want to run the executable' I click 'yes' but nothing really happens.
can we convert a silverlight xap file which is actually a zip file into an exeutable and run it?
Also is it possible to depoly an app from within the phone?
There are efforts underway to either run native apps (EXEs) or to install apps (from XAP files) on the phone itself. Currently, I don't think either is possible. Feel free to lend a hand, though. A little searching on the forum will turn up the relevant threads, but I know that a lot of work has been discussed in the DllImport Project thread on this sub-forum.
People have been able to make native apps, but they are DLL's, not EXE's. TouchExplorer/TouchXperience/a few registry editors, File Explorers are all Native. Although there a problem with native Apps & the Multitasking Registry Hack. Once one Native app is loaded, no other will start up unless you restart.
I wonder if anybody knows what program is needed to edit Android dat and idx files. Ideally I would prefer a Windows program but Android or Linux will also do.
Thanks.
I wish I knew too.

I was doing the same thing. I have found a rough solution. Hex Editor on Android will open and edit, with root. This is far from ideal. Hopefully someone will see these posts and provide a template or application for these specific file formats .dat and .idx.
I have seen individual apps for Windows that will hack apps, mostly games. I am not keen on downloading or using these. One- I don't do Windows, but can if absolutely necessary. Two- these may very well be virii...
I miss the good ole ResEdit days. I will check ResEdit & Resourcer when I get time and report back. This means getting the archives out. These apps used to have extensive file editing templates, mostly Mac.
Hi,
I'm currently using Genymotion to use a couple apps on my Desktop just for ease of use. One of the apps however apparently blocks access from Genymotion and requires you editing the build.prop file. I have never used an Android device so I'm not exactly sure what to do. I know how to find the file and edit it but I have no idea what to change (probably the text that says "Genymotion") and what to.
Is there anyway I can change it so it doesn't appear as though I'm accessing the app via. Genymotion?
Thanks.
So I am futzing about trying to do some folder browsing outside my app sandbox from an android app, and I cannot figure out how on an unrooted phone can these terminal apps allow navigation into /system folders and show read only files owned by root? I understand these files cannot be modified without rooting, but my little old android app cannot seem to see anything but its own sandboxed portion of the file system.
So how do non-root file manager apps get around the file system, using what api? This is probably totally stupid and I apologize in advance, but I have searched numerous explorers on github and have no answer yet. Of course I know using adb I can use the toybox versions of common linux file tools, but I also noticed simple terminal emulator apps in paystore are able to do this as well (simple id, ls, pwd, and cd), and they seem to be android apps with a proper apk etc.
What am I missing? How does one do those things from within a "proper" android app? Do JNI code module that makes old school linux file system requests?
How are these apps different from a standard android java app, what do they do differently?
