Introducing the AFV File Verifier for Android™ app, now available (free) in the Market (search for "AFV"; QR code and screenshots are also below in the attached thumbnails).
The AFV File Verifier for Android™ application is a tool for helping to verify and validate that files transferred to your Android device are whole and uncorrupted.
Developers are welcome and encouraged to include this app in their custom ROMs to assist end-users with checking the completeness and validation of their (your ) downloaded custom ROMs.
The AFV File Verifier for Android™ app does this by offering:
- MD5, SHA-1, SHA-224, SHA-256, SHA-384, SHA-512 checksum calculation
- "jarsigner -verify"-type validation of signed jar-type files (.jar, .apk, .zip files)
- Nandroid backup directory verification via "md5sum -c"-type functionality
These functions are particularly useful for root users who want to verify/validate that their custom ROMs, themes, and installable .zip files are whole and uncorrupted. However, this app does not require that you be rooted and can also be useful for checking the validity of other non-root files such as application .apk files.
Features
- Includes function to calculate an MD5 or SHA1 checksum for a selected file
* Useful to verify completeness and integrity of files transferred to your Android device
* File size is also displayed
* Calculated checksum is copied to clipboard
- Includes function to perform jar file verification of signed jar-type files (true .jar files, .apk files, signed .zip files such as ROMs, installable .zips, etc.) via 'jarsigner -verify'-type functionality. This function will verify the SHA1 checksums of each file listed in the signed jar file's META-INF/MANIFEST.MF file.
- Includes function to verify Nandroid backup directories via "md5sum -c" type functionality. You navigate to the Nandroid backup directory that you'd like to check, long-press the nandroid.md5 file, and select the Verify Nandroid Backup option. The function will then calculate and verify the MD5 checksums of each file listed in the nandroid.md5 file against the files in the Nandroid backup directory. Additionally, I've added some special name audits for Nandroid backup directories to point-out any issues you might encounter should you attempt to restore a mis-named Nandroid backup.
How to use
- From main / home screen, press the "Select File" button to enter the file-selector
- Top row (folder icon with the green up arrow) always displays the currently selected directory (touch this row to navigate UP one directory level)
- Back key can also be used to navigate UP one directory level (will return to main screen when pressing back key at root directory)
- Navigate to other subdirectories by touching a directory row (folder icon)
- Touch screen and drag up and down to scroll through all files and directories in currently selected directory
- Long-press on a file to view the available functions:
* Calc MD5 Checksum
* Calc SHA1 Checksum
* Verify Jar-type file
* Verify Nandroid Backup (long-press nandroid.md5 file to use this function)
* Calc SHA224 Checksum
* Calc SHA256 Checksum
* Calc SHA384 Checksum
* Calc SHA512 Checksum
Miscellaneous
Works for any Android version 1.5 or higher; has been tested on:
* Motorola Droid X (v2.1, v2.2)
* Motorola Cliq (v1.5)
* HTC Droid Eris (v2.1)
* Samsung Epic 4G (v2.1)
Menu items supported (main screen only):
* Help
* Acknowledgements
* Change Log
* Filtering options (no filtering or show only zip/jar/apk/img-type files)
* Jar Verify options (normal / fast mode or beta / explicit SHA1 calculation mode)
* Current settings
* Exit App

androgiallo, you are very welcome! I've got some minor tweaks that I'm working on, so I'm hoping to keep using the Market's ability to let people know about updates (it got a little cumbersome w/publishing the older versions of the app in different threads, etc., lol).

Neo.Collin, thank you for the kinds words and feedback--I very much appreciate it. I know there's a lot of frequent flashers D) out that should be checking their downloaded ROMs and such...peace of mind, you know?
Please let me know if you have any suggestions and/or ideas for future improvements. Thanks!
v1.2 just uploaded to the Market
All,
Been awhile since I've updated this app and it was long overdue. Mostly minor fixes and updates. No real core functions changed other than upgrade the early (noobie-coded ) menu settings to the more professional and standard preferences and settings menu.
I've also made some changes that should eliminate any FCs you were getting (most related to orientation changes, I believe). I'll get the orientation handling properly done in a future version.
If you get any FCs, please email me at [email protected] and let me know the circumstances so I can make a fix (the crash reports don't often tell the whole story).
Here's the change log for v1.2:
version 1.2 - 23-Jan-2011:
- supported standard preferences / settings menu instead of individual menu items
- added SD card mounted check before allowing file selection
- added two methods for comparing MD5 or SHA1 checksums:
* auto-comparison of calculated checksums w/menu option to display comparison results
* manual input of checksum (or paste from clipboard) value to be compared w/next calculated checksum
- changed default sort order of file / directory names to ignore case
- added option to toggle ignoring of case when sorting file / directory names
- force all screens to portrait orientation to fix/prevent FCs (future version will handle orientation changes correctly)
Thanks again for using my app and for your support. As always, email me or post-up here for any comments, questions, issues, or suggestions.
Cheers!
Hey, great app. Not sure if I missed this feature, but it would be cool to copy paste a md5 before your app verifies the selected file, and simply says if it matches or not

You are most welcome, thank you for the comments.
As a matter of fact, you can do this in this (new v1.2) version:
1. Press menu key
2. Select Preferences / Settings
3. Select Input Checksum (in the MD5 / SHA1 Comparison middle section)
4. Type (lol) or (more likely ) paste the checksum to be compared
5. Press back key to return to the main screen
6. Select your file and long-press the filename and select the appropriate checksum operation
7. After the checksum is computed, you'll get a pop-up indicating the status of the comparison of the newly-calculated checksum with the one you inputted in the menu
You can also check the Display Comparison Info checkbox to have the app display a pop-up message regarding the checksum comparison of the last two MD5 or SHA1 checksum comparisons that you perform. This would be helpful for checking two file successively.
Cheers and thanks again!
No, thank you, you did a great job of making a multifunctional app. Job well done

v1.3 just published to the Market
All,
Just released version 1.3 to the Market. Nothing major--just some more things on the to-do list that I finally figured-out how to do.
version 1.3 - 2-Feb-2011:
- now supports SHA-224, SHA-256, SHA-384, and SHA-512 digest/checksum algorithms (along with the MD5 and SHA1 algorithms, these appear to be all functions that the MessageDigest API supports)
- will now also display checksum results in a pop-up to ensure viewing checksum results on all phones
- keep screen on while progress-bar is displayed in long-running calculations
- directory name is now remembered from last file selection
- added help menu function for file selection screen
Thanks and hope these changes are useful.
Cheers!

Can I just say that I love your app, but I was a little disappointed that you don't post your apk anywhere. I was trying to help a user troubleshoot an issue on the CyanogenMod forums with not being able to get the Play Store installed, by verifying the md5sum of his ROM and gapps zips. I wanted to just send him to this thread to download the apk so he could manually install it, but it is nowhere to be found (including your google site page). Would you consider adding it as an attachment to this thread for those times that people can't get on the Play Store and need to use the app?

Excellent suggestion, bassmadrigal and thank you for the kind words .
I've updated the OP with the v2.0b version that's currently available on the Play Market.
I'm actually up late working on a tweak to the app that will support the auto-verification of MD5 checksums in .tar.md5 files from a I request I received Wednesday. I hope to have this new version posted (and the OP updated) in a few days.
I'll also upload the Legacy version of the .apk here in a few minutes for those on older versions of Android.
Cheers and thank you again!

Version 2.1 just released
Just updated Play Store (and OP of this thread) with new v2.1 version.
Enjoy!
Thanks,
-SA
Change log:
[version 2.1 - 24-Feb-2013]:
- support auto-verification of MD5 checksum in *.tar.md5 files (thanks for Mike D. for this excellent suggestion)
- better recognize .md5 file entries formatted by other md5sum utilities (i.e., other than busybox md5sum applet)
I would really like to see a push for the sha-2 algorithm instead of md5 since its is subject to attack and they have found to create two files with same checksum ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MD5 ).
I am uncertain as to why the push for sha-2 checksum in the android community has not been taken up, instead of we rely on an 18 yr old algorithm that is subject to attack.
I think the main gist of publishing a MD5 and SHA1 digests for a file is not strictly for security or secrecy reasons but rather as one means of providing a way to help verify / validate the integrity of a downloaded file.
Certainly using a less vulnerable, stronger, more robust checksum is always desirable, MD5 and SHA1 sums are probably here to stay for a while (although I must admit to remembering the widespread use of CRC-16 and -32 in the not-too-distance past (well in the '80's anyways )).
Also, being aware of the file's known / expected size and the download source's author is helpful in vetting it's pedigree and authenticity.
Caveat emptor, etc. .
Great app...

This is a program my friend and me created to improve our programming skill
and to make decompiling dex files a breeze.
How to use?
1) Start DexManager.exe
2) Place classes.dex in same folder as program and hit decompile
3) Edit files in the new folder "out"
4) Hit recompile, after recompile is complete it will be in the root directory, named "classes.dex".
Done!

Have you ever wanted to
- have a useful backup of your whatsapp chats?
- be able to read your whatsapp chats again using a backup file?
- delete the grown-too-big message history of whatsapp without losing the possibility to read the old conversations?
- read older messages without the need of endlessly pressing the annoying "load older messages" button?
- be able to search old messages?
- ...?
Here is a little Tool to display whatsapp chats on your computer, using the database files from your android installation of whatsapp.
It's called WhatsApp Xtract and was created by Fabio Sangiacomo and me.
Preview of the result:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",

So here is WhatsApp Xtract v2.3
Released on April 25th, 2018
Tested with Whatsapp (Android) 2.18.46
Tested with Whatsapp (iPhone) 2.5.1
CHANGELOG:
v2.3 (updated by ztedd - Apr 25, 2018)
- fixed image preview to work with new Whatsapp database format
- some minor fixes
v2.2 (updated by ztedd - Nov 17, 2012)
- now supports new emoji smileys
- (Android Version) hotfix for TypeError in b64encode
- (Android Version) decoded file won't be deleted even if it can't be opened
v2.1 (updated by Fabio Sangiacomo and ztedd - May 7th, 2012)
- improved install pyCrypto.bat
- added easy drag and drop possibility with whatsapp_xtract_drag'n'drop_database(s)_here.bat
- (Android Version) added support to fix corrupted android whatsapp database (needs sqlite3, for windows sqlite3.exe is contained in the archive)
- (Android Version) removed wrong extraction of owner in android version
- (Iphone Version) information from Z_METADATA table will be printed to shell
- (Iphone Version) fixed bug in support of older Iphone whatsapp databases
V2.0 (updated by Fabio Sangiacomo and ztedd - Apr 28, 2012)
- supports WhatsApp DBs coming from both Android and iPhone platforms
- (Android Version) wa.db is optional
- (Android Version) now also crypted msgstore.db.crypt from the SD card can be imported
- chat list is sorted by the last sent message
- fixed some bugs (e.g. that the script didn't work with python 3)
------------------------
Wish list:
Feel free to take the code and improve it. So maybe we could include some code from this different version which is able to export separate htmls for each chat:
https://github.com/BurakDev/hotoloti/issues/10
------------------------
How to use:
(instrucciones en español / deutsche Anleitung - old)
You need a copy of the whatsapp database and (if no root) get your key.
a) if your Android phone is rooted:
get these files:
/data/data/com.whatsapp/databases/msgstore.db and wa.db
(for this you need root access. detailed instructions in the bottom of this file.
The advantage of having wa.db is that the corresponding contact names of phone numbers will be displayed.)
b) if you have a normal Android (not rooted):
you need this to get the key:
[Tool] WhatsApp Key/DB Extractor | CRYPT6-12 | NON-ROOT
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2770982
then you need the .crypt12 database from /sdcard/WhatsApp/Databases/
then you need a tool like Whatsapp Viewer to decrypt the database file:
Whatsapp Viewer
http://andreas-mausch.de/whatsapp-viewer/
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2719741
The decrypted database can already be viewed in Whatsapp Viewer. If you want the output style from Whatsapp xtract then you can continue with the decrypted file.
c) On IPhone, get this file (don't know if it still works in 2018):
net.whatsapp.WhatsApp/Documents/ChatStorage.sqlite
(You can use an Iphone Backup Tool to get the file, e.g. I-Twin or Iphone Backup Extractor. Make sure to create an unencrypted backup with Itunes, as these tools can't handle encrypted backups. Another possibility are forensic tools like UFED Physical Analyzer.)
Extract this archive (Whatsapp_Xtract....zip) to a certain folder on your computer, e.g. C:\WhatsApp.
Copy the database(s) to e.g. C:\WhatsApp (on Android, you simply copy the whole folder WhatsApp on SD card to your computer e.g. to C:\WhatsApp and then copy the database file from C:\WhatsApp\Databases to C:\WhatsApp)
You need Python
https://www.python.org/downloads/
It's available for Windows, Linux and Mac. However in my HowTo, I focus on Windows.
Now run whatsapp_xtract_android.bat or whatsapp_xtract_iphone.bat
OR simply drag and drop the database file(s) to whatsapp_xtract_drag'n'drop_database(s)_here.bat
OR whatsapp_xtract_console.bat and then manually specify the input file with one of these commands:
COMMAND LINE OPTIONS:
For Android DB:
python whatsapp_xtract.py msgstore.db -w wa.db
OR (if wa.db is unavailable)
python whatsapp_xtract.py msgstore.db
For iPhone DB: (-w option is ignored)
python whatsapp_xtract.py ChatStorage.sqlite
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Once finished, your browser will open and show the chats.
The resulting file size of the .html file will be slightly bigger than the size of the original .db.crypt12 database.

IF SOMETHING DOESN'T WORK:
1. First check if you already have the newest download (check full name of the .zip file: is it the same as in mentioned in this thread?). Maybe your error already has been fixed.
2. Read the post Some additional information and read the last pages of this thread to see if your problem is already being discussed.
Use the Search inside this thread function!
3. If not or if it doesn't help, post your error with a detailed description (and error message) in the thread.

FEATURE REQUESTS:
These features below are quite outdated. For example, conversion/migration from Iphone / Windows Phone to Android was made possible by paid apps (Wazzapmigrator / WinWazzapmigrator).
Anyway, if you want to contribute, please take my source file, put a repo on github and go on!
- Blackberry Support: Step 1 - How is it possible to get the unencrypted messagestore.db file from Blackberry Whatsapp? (valek07); Step 2 - get a sample db file (see how to create sample db) and include Blackberry support
- Nokia Support: Step 1 - How to get the database file from Nokia? (oscargpes) Step 2 - Get a sample db file (see how to create sample db) and include Nokia support
- Windows Phone Support (beastie_carrion): Step 1 - How to get the database file from Windows Phone? Step 2 - Get a sample db file (see how to create sample db) Step 3 - include Windows Phone support
- create an android app for this, ideally offering "export to googlemail" function as in SMS Backup + (nomad4ever)
/ conversion of whatsapp to sms xml (ofmb)
- conversion between Android and Iphone database:
-- Android -> Iphone: ark0n3 is working on a Java tool called WhatsAppMigrator, here you can download WhatsAppMigrator
-- Iphone -> Android: no solution yet
- merge multiple backup files (darKpoiSonend) (you can use the tool SQLite Compare as a workaround, see howto in this post by ztedd)
- extract deleted messages (sometimes deleted messages remain in the database file but can't be accessed with normal Sqlite commands anymore) (Rauken)
- include Iphone support for audio, gps, gps of a place (like a restaurant), group messages and change of group name -> we would need an Iphone sample database containing these message types!
Some Additional Information
General advice on how to backup Whatsapp
Some general advice on how to backup Whatsapp and get the database file:
Android:
- In Whatsapp go to settings - more - Backup Chats
- Copy the folder "Whatsapp" on the SD card to your backup location (e.g., PC)
- (ideally also) use the app Titanium Backup to backup the full whatsapp application together with its data, copy the backup from the folder "TitaniumBackup" on the SD card to your backup location (e.g., PC)
- Use this tool Whatsapp Backup Extractor (download in this thread) to show the chats in a friendly readable format. The necessary files "wa.db" and "msgstore.db" you will find inside the Titanium Backup archive "com.whatsapp-[Date]-[some digits].tar.gz", alternatively (without Titanium Backup) you can use the msgstore.db.crypt file from the folder Whatsapp/Databases on the SD card.
Iphone:
- use Itunes to create an unencrypted Backup
- use an Iphone Backup Tool to get the file net.whatsapp.WhatsApp/Documents/ChatStorage.sqlite, e.g. I-Twin or Iphone Backup Extractor. Make sure to create an unencrypted backup with Itunes, as these tools can't handle encrypted backups. Another possibility are forensic tools like UFED Physical Analyzer.)
Blackberry:
- sync your blackberry with desktop manager and then copy the messagestore.db file from SD
- however, it seems that this file is encrypted? Currently we don't know how to get the unencrypted messagestore.db file
- Blackberry not supported yet!
Nokia:
- not known yet
- Nokia not supported yet!
CHECK IF DATABASE FILE CAN BE OPENED / EDIT CHAT MESSAGES INSIDE DATABASE
You may want to open the decrypted whatsapp database (ChatStorage.sqlite, msgstore.db or msgstore.plain.db) without this tool, e.g. if something goes wrong to check if it can be opened at all or to edit chat messages.
For this use SQLite Database Browser ( http://sqlitebrowser.sourceforge.net/ ).
However it is much more confusing and the messages are ordered by date, not by conversations. Also you won't see the smileys and media files...
IF DATABASE CAN'T BE OPENED: REPAIR DATABASE
Update: This function is now included in Whatsap Xtract 2.1.
If you get an error like this: Error: file is encrypted or is not a database and you tried to open the unencrypted database with SQLite Database Browser but it can't be opened with it, then try the following:
Open the database with Editor, can you see it starts with "SQLite format 3"? Then you may try to repair the database.
Thanks to hape70 for the instructions on how to repair (I translated it from German to English):
- download sqlite3.exe from http://www.sqlite.org/download.html
- start whatsapp_xtract_console.bat and then type:
- echo .dump | sqlite3.exe msgstore.db > Temp.sql
- echo .quit | sqlite3.exe -init Temp.sql msgstore_new.db
- python whatsapp_xtract.py msgstore_new.db
(make sure to replace the underlined msgstore.db with the name of the database that is unencrypted but can't be opened, sometimes it will be msgstore.plain.db)

MEDIA FILES
If you want to watch the videos, audios and images, you can click on the thumbnails and media links. Popups should open displaying the media.
However, online media files are available only for the last ~ 3 weeks.
But you still can open the offline media files, they are linked as well.
For this it is necessary to at first copy the folder "Media" from /sdcard/Whatsapp (Android) or net.whatsapp.WhatsApp (Iphone) to the certain folder of your computer where this tool is installed. Then run the script. Now the media files should be correctly linked.
HOW TO MERGE MULTIPLE DATABASE FILES WITH SQLite Compare
Merging of multiple backup files is still on the feature request list, but you can use the tool SQLite Compare as a workaround, see howto in this post by ztedd.
Worked here!
Thanks a lot!
Glad you can use it!

It won't work with the .db.crypt files from the SD card. You need the unencrypted msgstore.db that you can get from the internal memory, location:
/data/data/com.whatsapp/databases
I guess you will need a rooted android to access this.
I updated the Readme to show 3 different ways how to do this, e.g. using Titanium Backup.
Update 2012-04-28: new version 2.0 supports android whatsapp .db.crypt files!
ztedd said:
Have you ever wanted to
- have a useful backup of your whatsapp chats?
- be able to read your whatsapp chats again using a backup file?
- delete the grown-too-big message history of whatsapp without losing the possibility to read the old conversations?
- read older messages without the need of endlessly pressing the annoying "load older messages" button?
- be able to search old messages?
- ...?
Here is a little Tool to display whatsapp chats on your computer, using the database files from your android installation of whatsapp.
It's called WhatsApp Extractor and was created by Fabio Sangiacomo on Dec 10, 2011.
blog.digital-forensics.it/2011/12/whatsapp-xtract.html
code.google.com/p/hotoloti/
Preview of the result (old version):
I found the script and realized it didn't work anymore, so I updated it and along that opportunity added some improvements.
So here is WhatsApp Extractor for Android v1.2
Updated on April 5, 2012
Tested with Whatsapp (Android) 2.7.5613
Changelog:
V1.2
- media files also linked to offline files
- corrected hyperlinks
V1.1
- updated database structure, old version didn't work anymore
- show contact names
- show smileys
- show images
- link / popup for images, video, audio, gps
- clickable links
How to use:
Root your android phone or use any other method to get access to the folder
/data/data/com.whatsapp/databases
copy the files "msgstore.db" and "wa.db" to a certain folder of your computer
You can do this by
- using the App RootExplorer (first copy to SD, then mount phone to computer)
- or using adb: open cmd and type "adb pull /data/data/com.whatsapp/databases/msgstore.db C:\Whatsapp" (replace C:\Whatsapp by the location of the certain folder of your computer)
- or using the app Titanium Backup. Use Titanium Backup to backup the full whatsapp application together with its data, copy the backup from the folder "TitaniumBackup" on the SD card to your PC, then extract the files "wa.db" and "msgstore.db" that you will find inside the Titanium Backup archive "com.whatsapp-[Date]-[some digits].tar.gz" to the certain folder.
Download and Install Python python.org/getit/
Extract the attached archive Whatsapp Extractor for Android V1.1 2012-04-05.zip (whatsapp_xtract.py, whatsapp_xtract.bat, folders emoji and sort-table) to the certain folder and run whatsapp_xtract.bat (on windows, other OS different)
Once finished, your browser will open and show you your chats.
The resulting file size of the .htm file will be slightly bigger than the size of the .db database.

I don't suppose there is a video tut to go with this is there? I am finding it hard to follow.. Thanks
For a while now I'm looking for such a tool, for my iPhone. I know this is a Android forum but I was still wondering if it would be very difficult to "adjust" this tool to work for the ChatStorage.sqlite database in iOS?

The developer Fabio Sangiacomo told me that he is working on a new version of the Iphone Whatsapp Backup Extractor. This will be compatible as well with Iphone and Android Version of Whatsapp databases and will have all the features of my Android Version (e.g., displaying smileys, images, and so on).

Ah, interesting.
Have you tried the 1.0 version of Whatsapp Extractor with your iPhone whatsapp backup files?
I'm about to. But maybe I'll wait till Fabio has come up with his new version.
How to open and convert a crypted whatsapp database backup (msgstore.db.crypt)
CRYPTED WHATSAPP DATABASE
If you only have a backup in the crypted format from /sdcard/WhatsApp/Databases/msgstore.db.crypt then you need to decrypt the database at first.
At the moment, this can only be done by reinstalling whatsapp. If the backup is present in the mentioned folder on the SD, then you will be asked to import the backup. However, the backup can be from a totally different phone number / whatsapp account.
After installing and importing the backup, access the database files as explained above (1. and 2.).
You don't need an android phone for this, can use Bluestacks Emulator for Windows. Make sure to root Bluestacks, using this guide:
http://www.androidfilehost.com/main...ueStacks Beta/HowTo/HowTo Root BlueStacks.pdf
Here it isn't working i have the unencrypted file, placed in the same folder as whatsapp_xtract.py and .bat and three folders, the bat appears for a second and it pop away.
What i'm doing wrong?
Edit: Getting error: This file is encrypted or not a database.
But it isn't a db.crypt file.

Excellent plugin. Way better than the mtp plugin from ghislers own page.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
TotalAndDroid
Glad you like it.
It's now available on (http://www.totalcmd.net/plugring/TotalAndDroid.html)
If you have any questions or suggestions. Write me a message.
Blagoev
Nice work!
But why is it not working with Total Commander x64? Any plans to support it in the near future?
x64 version
Definitely. When I started doing it there was no x64 version of Total Commander. Days before I finished Total Commander 8 was released supporting x64.
There is such ticket in the uservoice totalanddroid forum. So vote there and add more ideas if you have any.
Thanks,
Blagoev
TotalAndDroid now published on totalcmd
TotalAndDroid is now published also on totalcmd net.
In addition there is a forum thread on the official Total Commander forum.
Check there as well for comments and discussions
Finally someone wrote this important plugin
Thank you very much.

Its always good when its useful. Tell your friends about it

No I don't think so. Still You can drag a folder in the TC toolbar and connect to it directly without navigating to \\totalanddroid\xx\yy

Same here. I am using ZTE Skate as well. (Thanks to tilal6991 and others at ZTE Skate Modaco forum)
Is it possible to show the file date too?
Your plugin works even with Bluestacks emulator.
Works fine here too. Just amazing!!!!!
As everyone, I'm just missing the ability to mount it as a drive letter and file date but otherwise everything is perfect.
One point anyway, it seems that I have found a small issue using it. On my colleague Note, I mounted my device on TC two panels and tried to move one folder (rerware) from one panel to the other. In this folder there were two folders and files in the second folder only. Everything went fine but I did not find the files in the destination.
On my Note, I can't even copy files from it to my computer (Win XP - 32 bits).
If someone could try to reproduce it in order to find if this is a bug from the plugin, from my Note or from me

Mounting is not possible to do. Can you mount an ftp folder in Total Commander ?
The move folder should be working fine. There is some other thing preventing it from working. Will need more investigation. If you are able to share more details what is the folder structure and what filenames you are moving. I may be able to find the problem.
For the Note. Is this a rooted device?
Thanks,

blagoev,
You are right, we can't mount an FTP folder in TC, I was just hoping you had a potential magic trick to show us
Now on the bug thing, I have faced a lot of trouble copying files from my (rooted) Note to my PC. At first I thought it was mine (corrupted fs or something like that) only as it was working fine with my colleague (rooted) Note, but I did some more test with his and I started to face the same king of issues.
I currently did not have much time to do tests but I will next week. If your plugin can generate some debug files, I will be able to do structured tests next week to find where this issue comes from.
You can pm me a link for a debugging version if you like.
Maybe a list of files and folders that are folder and what you are trying to copy would do?
Thanks,
Blagoev

Works very nicely with my SGS3 ROM and CWM recovery. An option to connect to IPort and later add it to the directories quick list or "cd" to it from a toolbar button is a really nice extra, too
Thanks a lot!
I was surprised to find out that searching using Alt+F7 in Total commander works also with this plugin. However, as the first "folders" listed are commands like shell and reboot, search will enumerate also through these, therefore it looks like this: you open search window, type what you want to find and press enter. As the search goes through ".reboot" folder it asks "Are you sure?" so I pressed yes as I thought it's just asking me if I really want to search on phone. The search went on and also found some files but meanwhile the phone went on and rebooted D Funny but would be nice if this could be fixed
But except this small issue - perfect plugin!
How can i change permissions?
editroblem fixed
Excellent, finally something I was searching for, working well on SGS III ! Really nice !
Very nice plugin, it actually makes me switch from my modification of Sztupy's TC Android plugin The only thing I miss is free space info. I implemented it into my/Sztupy's plugin by parsing df after entering a directory. I put this info into the connection console which is visible in the total commander toolbar, below the menu. Unfortunately there's no better way to display free space from plugin, is it?
Do anyone know why it is empty? Only the Android 4.2.2 and the 4.1.2 is good
/?Edit
Sorry,It's already well
This is simply brilliant. Seriously is there anything that cannot be done with Total Commander?

In case you haven't found a solution yet for the free space, just create a new command like this:
Name: Free space
Function type: Send shell command
Command: sh
Parameters: *df -h . | cut -b 23-32,35-50
May need some tweaking for the icon.

I was using the original one, it stopped working properly for a while and I was looking for this for a while. Thank you very much for your work.
