Search for Swiftp in the market.

Search for Samba here on XDA, its a sharing service that shares your SDCard over wifi, just like regular folder sharing on a PC.

On Air (wifi disk) and BitKinex (FTP and WebDAV client) on PC

Root ftp will allow you to access your sd-card for read/write.

Samba is light weight and really easy to use

you need ES Bookmark Manager to managing your shortcuts and a doc viewer

[Q] Root file explorer APP for tablets

What do folks use for ROOT File exploring with a tablet? I can see articles on ROOT file explorers with phones but not tablets? Likewise, file explorers for tablets but they don't mention root access.
Curious if there are any recommendations?
Thanks, LongTrail
Root Explorer and ES File explorer work just fine.

Yep...I use Root Explorer. I've been using it ever since I started using the android system.
Super Manager is another choice. Can't post links yet, but it's in the Market.
file manager hd - its honeycomb optiimized, lets you make bookmarks. I like root explorer on my phones, but prefer the hd tablet layout of hd file manager.
Is in the market.
DroidxRage!
your advice helped me a lot!
Late to the game, but this file explorer allows root

It's my favorite File Manager...especially if you have a NAS as it allows bookmarks.
Thread is nearly 2 years old.... I imagine OP has found one by now
Use the solid explorer, its the best file manager ever ( in my opinion)
Hit the 'thanks' button if it helps

You can use Root Explorer or ES File Explorer from market. Root is the better one. If your talking apps try app2sd from market though I havent heard of anyone wanting to move apps to phone to kill phone memory except for widgets. But depends on what files your trying to move. Be careful on what your moving and to where.
Lots of reading and searching (Google & XDA) save the heachaches.

You can do as Reinaldo told you. Other way, if you want to put apps from the sdcard to the phone, you can just use the applications>manage applications menu...
Awesome, thanks guys, root manager works like a charm.

[Q] How to download Google play store apps on PC & put on android tablet?

I don't have wi-fi but do have broadband on PC.
I cannot download the free games Asphalt 8, Dead Trigger 2, Subway Surfer from Google Play store on PC, how can I do that?
Just like iTunes for iPad/iPhone, is there any way for android tablets/phones to download apps/games on PC first and then put on the device?

You can try http://codekiem.com. There is a tool to download apks directly from the play store. (not tested by me, just googled.)

I should google "google play.apk"?
I won't update automatically since I have no wi-fi and tablet only has wi-fi connectivity.
Can I access internet on tablet via USB connection to a computer?
Real apk leecher should do the job just fine. It's smooth and works perfect, and is also legal.
Give it a try!

how to see contents of memory card? there is no file manager, i can only see songs and picture in gallery. And how will tablets internal memory appear on PC as a drive?
I don't think use tethering without root but you can use use to Ethernet cable and an otg cable to get pc Internet on tab.
Install a file manager to view sd card contents.

Write to external sd card without root?

Hi just wondering if apps can write to sd card without root on the note pro? Searched the forum and nothing came up but I use tapatalk so search is not always that great
Some apps can via a workaround, such as ES File Explorer and Quickpic. Others can't as they won't use the workaround.
Are there any specific apps or app types you're looking for?
You can use the My Files app, or connect the tablet to your PC and you'll have full access to internal and external storage.

Of which? ES and Quickpic? Both. ES is a file explorer, Quickpic is a gallery.
