This is my first android application. I was using an application for windows to view what was eating up my ssd and thought it would be nice to have something on android that could do that.
I also implemented file manager controls (copy,cut,paste,delete,rename,new folder).
As I said I'd really like some feedback, being my first app and all.
Free(ads): Grid Size File Manager Free
Demo(noads): **Unpublished** not needed with free version.
Paid(noads): Grid Size File Manager
(links in next post, thanks willverduzco)
From the app description (What it does!):
Grid Size file manager has all the functionality you expect from a file manager with a useful visual feature. The grid view graphically displays the contents of your storage drive proportional to the size of each folder and file. The grid view also supports image controls so that you can zoom and pan to view folders.
Standard list view is also available for the folder tree, useful for typical file manager functionality and for interacting with files and folders that are empty and thus not displayed in the grid view.
To begin, tap the "scan storage" button. After scan is complete, you are shown your folders via GridView. See below to access ListView. Tap on a colored box to open a folder, labeled via the lighter colored band at the top of each box. To open a file within a folder, simply tap that box and select "ok" when prompted to open that file.
You can zoom in at any time with a standard pinch zoom. You can also pan around by holding your finger down and dragging across the screen. Press and hold on a folder or file to interact with it. Available commands include: open, copy, cut, paste, rename, delete and new folder. Tap the back button on your phone to go back to the previous level of folders.

Nice app idea.
Here are the links:
Grid Size Free (Ad Supported)
Grid Size Demo (Time Limited)
Grid Size Full (Paid)
Thanks a lot!
Here are my requests
"open folder location" in file manager controls
Add % in Grid mode
This app is petty kick ass. I've always wondered where the heck all my free space went
This saves me from mounting my phone and doing the same process with a desktop app. A+ application! Thanks a ton!
Great app, could do with smooth animations and zooming like DiskUsage, otherwise I think I prefer your app. Loads much faster than DiskUsage does! Will come in handy when frantically trying to free up some space to copy something to the SD card.

psycho_maniac, thanks for the suggestions!
Those would be pretty easy to implement. When you say open folder location you mean like you can type in a location and it will open it?
Or maybe even have some sort of search functionality would be pretty useful.
kdb, antcodd, thank you!
Love this app. Smooth and perfect. Thank
Does full version has KB/MB/GB indication ?
ukanth, it has the kb indication on the grid folders and files. I does not have it in the list view. I could put the kb in the current folder status bar at the bottom but currently I only have the percentage of storage and folder name.
These are great suggestions! Keep them coming!

No I mean like long press on a location, lets say i see the "media" folder in /sdcard/media" using 50% long pess on that grid and select "open folder location" and it opens "/sdcard/media" with your default file explorer and you can delete stuff.
psycho_maniac, I'm not sure I see the usefulness. My app allows you to delete along with cut, copy, paste, rename and create new folder. Why would you need to open another app to do that?
What are people's thoughts on the price point for the paid version?

Couple of suggestions:
* Include to set option to show size in MB/GB in grid and list view
* I think it would be clear if lines are not there in list view (my personal opinion)
* Add folder properties option in menu
I'll be happy if its less than a dollar ($0.99)
If not also I'll buy
I like the idea for the mb/gb size option. And I really really like the idea for the the show properties!!
And thanks for the suggestion on price! Maybe I shot too high for my first app
It is now 0.99!!

Exactly what I'm missing! Size in bottom bar an list view (maybe at end and not right after %)
and an Option to change from KB to MB and GB.
Absolutely overkill would be that if its over 2048 kbyte its displayed in MB. And if its over 2048mb its gonna be displayed as GB. Maybe with one chifre after coma. Cuz i don't really care if i have 22189mb or 22190mb used in that folder. 22.2gb would suite better.
Also nice gimmick would be the amount of files in that folder ( list view )
Btw took 2-3 minutes to scan my 30gb! Not bad.
P.s. found a bug! (See picture) music folder is 21.6gb !
Link to the Picture
Good point on the size thing, and it would be really easy to implement. Like you said just an if statement.
And I can add it to the current directory too.
I don't see any pictures.
What are the thoughts on restricting the functionality of the free version. Now that the price barrier is lower I think it may be fair. Maybe limit the users to one file operation per day. Like one delete, rename, newfolder, paste a day with the free one.
What are your thoughts, I'm new to all this...
I'm Free user.... means i dont have a credit card, so i never ever think about buying apps ^^ so price doesn't matter to me.
Limiting to Operations per Day would only make customers (if you call them so ^^) angry. Cuz most time you don't use this tool for 3 Weeks, and then again in one day you would like to sort your SD card and want to delet 5 folders!
If you want to bring customers to buy your app, make the "Delet" option only for Paid app Cuz its nice to move folders... but most people want to delet them (i think so)
Another idea: List view is sorted by Size? cant change do Alphabetical by pressing a button / settings ?
P.s Fixed image in other post ^^
No, you're right. I shouldn't make my customers angry.
And I can add sorting to the list of updates!
Sugestion: After entering a file or deleting a file and returning to the main screen have it stay zoomed in to the point you were at prior to entering or deleting a file. Right now if I go into something to delete an interior folder when I go back to the main screen I'm zoomed out to the max again where before entering the folder I may have been zoomed in 3/4X the orginal size.
Well the problem with that is if you are deleting something in the sub folder when you return to the previous folder it will change size, and the whole grid may look a lot different. So I keep it zoomed out so you can see that difference.
OK SO List of updates I plan on working on in the following week:
Support for multiple sd cards (full)
Root folder (at least the ability to look at it for unrooted folks)(full)
Properties of folders/files (full)
Changing the size from KB to MB if larger than 1MB and from MB to GB if larger than 1GB (fixing the one size but with the huge folders displaying at like 2.2 KB instead of GB) (free&full)
Listing size of current dir in the grid (free&full)
Listing size in list view (free&full)
Ability to sort in list view by name (full)
Keep them coming!!

soft keyboard in landscape mode needs to be toggled on 2x the first time you open it.
Post any Bugs, issues, or ideas here please
Updates:
Changed Search UI so that it is no longer its own activity. This will allow the user to back out of the search box and still use the switcher on the bottom to switch between search, browse, and terminal.
Replaced pop up in search box with Search hint.
Corrected the trackball from defaulting to control key when changing Terminal prefs. Basically it will allow it to work as the enter key again after changing preferences.
Current users will have to change the preferences the first time they update in order to correct the issue if you previously had it.

It's very cool.
I've bought it.
But:
Can you manage it, that the keyboard doesn't pop on every start?
And:
I can't find my folders with a "." at the beginning.
If you help this could be better than root explorer.

I was just about to post .. that it's too bad I already purchased Root Explorer, lol. If this is even better, I may have to give it a shot as well.

Special 1 week 1$ sale
Everybody should check this out. This is my favorite file browser. Definately get it on sale. I had this since it first came out and I was on my G1.
My request, Can you make the ability to select multiple files for cut, copy, paste? Or if the ability is already there, can you tell me how to do it?
Its already in there:
Tap on the front od the line you would like to mark. Theres a checkbox.
Then you have it marked.
Do it with all files you want. Then press one of this marked files for more then two seconds and choose "delete all marked files"
If you wanna mark all files in one folder, than open the folder, press the menu key and choose select all.
Then press on one of these files and choose again "delete all marked files"
I hope you understand this. for me it was easier to write this in german. Sorry!
Had to support for the price!!
whats up with sufbs? since last update it looks not how it should!
using CM5.0.6, Helix-Launcher2, kmob kernel, HTC-IME
maybe a incompatibility?
^ mine does not look like that.
This is the best file manager for sure, and one of my favorite apps. I love being able to delete unwanted apps from system without having to use adb.
not compatible with HelixLauncher2, please correct this. ui is distorted like in the image i already posted. THANKS!
I have it together with HelixLauncher2. Everything is fine here.

!!! NOW FREE IN THE MARKET !!!
This is a LiveWallpaper app based on the Nexus LiveWallpaper from Google, but with full controls over everything you can imagine giving you full control over this wallpaper without the need of a themer or developer to modify it for you.
This is an FAQ/Instruction type post which outlines the capabilities and controls of Pl3x Wallpaper 4.x
Why would I stop charging for this app and give it out for free? I've learned that people love free things, and are more apt to try my works if I offer them for free. Later down the road, when I publish more apps I might throw a paid app back out there.
Now on to the good stuff! How to work this thing!
The Wallpaper Items:
There are 3 main parts to this wallpaper, the images. We'll cover those first, as the rest of the controls dont mean squat unless you pick these images wisely.
The Background Image
This one is quite obvious. Its the actual wallpaper of this application, and is automatically resized to 854x960 for you (will upscale/downscale from there for different devices automatically), so you can feel free to use images from your Camera's save folder. If you use an image that is not in this 854x960 aspect ratio (8:9) it will automatically be stretched and skewed to fit. (better ratio/size controls will be introduced in v5)
The Sprite Image
The Sprite is the "square dot" on the Nexus LWP, or the Circle 3 in the above left screenshot. It is a small image, at only 64x64. You can use larger images if you want, they will be automatically resized to 64x64 for you. Just be careful of stretching/skewing!
This image is very special, as its not used straight up as you might expect. Google uses their private API named RenderScript to modify this image heavily, giving it a "glow" effect of a light. In that regard, it acts just like an actual light. White would be the brightest of all colors, while black is technically no light at all so it doesnt show up at all (black is transparent). Darker colors are effected by this too, as they appear to be more "See through" or "opague" than brighter colors because of this rendering effect. I have tried many times and many different ways to disable this effect so we can use black as a Sprite color, but sadly I keep failing. As I progress in this project, I continue to dissect Google's RenderScript API (which is not documented at all) looking for a way to allow dark/black colors.
The Trail Image
This image is the long trailing color behind the sprite that slowly appears to fade out to nothing. This is also a fairly small image, but it is NOT in the size you would expect. It is 128x128 and a simple gradient FG->Transparent. I usually dont change this image, and dont recommend changing it either, but I hate limiting people on their controls, so I have included it in this app.
The coloring of the trail is the same color as its sprite it is attached too, and also goes under the same RenderScript effects as the sprite.
The length (or size) of the trail can be adjusted, shorter or longer. The width can also be adjusted smaller or wider. However, its not as simple as it sounds. The two are somehow tied very closely together, and I havent looked into the equation to figure it out yet. Play with the settings until you find what suits you best.
The Controls:
Selecting an Image
Selecting an image is really simple. Just click on Background/Sprite/Trail at the top of the main screen to open the Image Selector screen.
Here you will see a list of folders to visually navigate through. Clicking on folders will open them, pressing the back button or "[parent folder]" will go back a folder. Pressing back on the root (/) directory will close the Image Selector screen and return you to the main screen.
If a folder contains any images, they will be presented to you at the bottom of your screen in a Gallery View. Scroll/Flick through this Gallery to select your image. The Gallery populates itself and caches thumbnails to your SDCard. You can clear the cache at any time, instructions for that are down towards the bottom of this post.
The Image Confirmation screen will show you a small, resized (if larger than screen) preview of the image you just clicked on. Click the Set button to set this and go back to the main screen. Click Cancel to go back to the Image Selector screen to pick another image file.
The Color Controls
There are 4 colors that can be adjusted to anything you want. Have them all the same, or all different. Its up to you. All 16.7 million colors are available to you.
There is a row of 4 large, colored dots. Click on one to bring up a color wheel. Drag your finger around the wheel until the center dot displays the color that you want. Or you can type in the Hex # if you want. Click that center dot to set that color. Do the same for all 4 colors.
Number of Sprites
This allows you to set how many free floating Sprites there are on the screen.
Max Number of Sprites on Tap
When you Tap on the screen (not in preview mode) 4 Sprites shoot out in all directions from where your finger is. You can have so many Extra Sprites on the screen at any given time. The default is 20, so after 5 quick taps it stops drawing extra Sprites until the previous ones disappear offscreen. Raise this to raise that limit.
Speed
This is the set speed of how fast the Sprites are moving across the screen.
Speed Variance
Notice not all Sprites move at the same speed, some slower, some faster. This setting controls that. It is a Variance control, meaning it goes both high and low of the set speed. If speed is 5, and variance is 2, then your sprites will randomly be set at speeds between 3 and 7.
Max Redraw Offscreen Delay
This is how long the Sprites stay "alive" while offscreen before they are redrawn.
Trail Length
This is the trail's length control.
Trail Width
This is the trail's width control.
Allow Tap
You can allow the Tap that was mentioned previously or not. Jus tuncheck this and taps ont he screen will no longer draw extra Sprites.
Menu Button Controls
The following settings are found by pressing your device's Menu button.
Color Schemes
I have included the standard color schemes that can be found in CM's Nexus LWP mod, plus a few more (more will be added with each version). These are a named set of 4 colors, predefined in the app. Select one from the list, and the colors will automatically be set on the main screen. You can then decide to use these colors, or modify them with the above mentioned Color Controls.
Load Defaults
This will simply unset any custom images you have set, and restore all slider/checkbox values to their default preset values.
Clear Cache
This clears the Gallery View images from the cache located on the SDCard
------------------
If you have any issues at all with this wallpaper app, please report the bug to me in PM, and as a temporary fix try clearing the Pl3x Wallpaper data.
*Currently this app is ONLY for Froyo HDPI devices. IF you cant find it in the Market, then your device is most likely not supported.
updated for v4 paid
Here are a few Sprite images I've put together for ya'll to use (remember, black is transparent )
And here is a custom trail to get your imagination juices flowing

Hello XDA community.
I would like to show you my new project Storage Analyser and maintain here a feedback and support channel for the XDA community.
Storage Analyser can:
Analyses Sdcard, external Sdcards, USB storage devices, system partitions (disabled by default)...
Order the content by size, the amount of files, the date or just the name
See the space used by applications using App2SD (.android_secure folder).
Include or exclude folder from the mediascan of the Android Gallery.
Filter out the content you are aware of to make the rest more pregnant.
Delete no longer necessary data directly from the app. No need for external file managers.
Real tablet support.
Allows several columns depending on the screen size.
Shows which already removed application left over some data in /sdcard/Android/data/ and /data/data
It supports all Android 2.1 devices and above.
I have a lot of ideas to extend and improve this app in the future but if you have an improvement suggestion, please don’t hesitate to give me your ideas.
Here is the direct link to the app:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.levelokment.storageanalyser
I plan to use this thread here to provide beta versions to the community before I will integrate them to the Market.
If you like you can follow me on Google+
I will drop private Betas for special G+ circles in the future for people that or interested to help to test versions with bigger/major changes.
Or on Twitter:
ChangeLog:
Version 0.9.8:
● Fix the missing additional row content (size, item count, percentage etc.) on Jelly Bean devices (Android 4.1).
● Added the external sdcard mointpoint of the Samsung Galaxy S3 (/mnt/extSdCard) to the known partition list.
● Clicking on an item image (file or folder) will now select the item the same way as the checkboxes.
Version 0.9.7:
● Fix for the Galaxy Nexus using the leaked Jelly Bean (Android 4.1) Rom to show the sdcard without the need to enable the "Show system partitions" option.
Version 0.9.6:
● Better detection for additional external sdcards on some devices.
If your still have partitions which are just visible with the "Show system partitions" option but should be handled as a basic partition from your point of view, please contact me.● A lot of smaller corrections and enhancements.
Version 0.9.5:
● Copy and Move function are available now! (On all non system partitions).
● Emmc partitions (like present Cyanogen Rom's) are correctly handled as SdCard's now.
● Fixed another bug that could prevent the context menu to open on some devices. If you still have problems to open the context menu (via a long click) please help by providing log files! (Just contact me for details)
● Several minor bug fixes.
Version 0.9.4:
● Fixed a bug that was preventing the context menu to open on some devices.
● Delete function is now working properly on emmc partitions (like Cyanogen Rom's).
● Fixed the detection of the .android_secure folder on some devices.
● Preferences do use fragments on devices with Android 3.x and higher.
Version 0.9.3:
● Fixed a bug leading to wrong calculated values after a folder was filtered or unfiltered.
● A light theme (selectable in the preferences).
Here are some Screenshots:

Bump!
Thanks for that HereAsWell.
Hi.
I just uploaded version 0.2.1 with two bug fixes.
Is there a plan to visualize data consumption in the internal memory, i.e., /system/ and /data/ partitions?
The reason I ask is because most of my apps are on internal memory and one day my "available space" decreased from 70 MB to 20 MB and I didn't know why
Hi c00ller.
Thanks for you reply.
Yes. This will come as well.
The plan is to keep app simple to understand, so I will have to see what is the best way to integrate it without confuse "normal" people.
Bye
Lars
Hi everyone (even if I right now feel like talking to my self )
One of the things I have in mind for one of the next updates is an preferences dialog that allows some customisations. (Some kind of expert settings)
What I have in mind are options for:
Deactivation of the acknowledgement message when deleting files / or folders.
Choose the font size of the list entries.
Override the amount of lists shown side by side in portrait mode.
Override the amount of lists shown side by side in landscape mode.
Any suggestions?
Bye
Lars
love the idea, but it's VERY slow and unresponsive on my captivate.

Thanks for the response ippon.
Can you please give me some more details, the app is lightning fast on my Nexus One and even on the an old HTC Magic that I use for additional tests it runs acceptable?
In Germany the device you have mentioned is not available, what kind of device is this (Android version, cpu speed, internal sd card or just an external etc)?
Do you use an external Sd card and if yes which speed class did it have?
Is the app unresponsive all the time? Or just during the collection of data? (you can see this by watching the progress indicator at the button right (status bar).
How many files and capacity do you have on your external storage? (values in the status bar after the data collection as been finished)
Thanks again and sorry for all the questions .
Lars
this is a good idea, from the PC my favorite program to do this was sequoia viewer, any chance you can make it look like that (as an option maybe?)
Hi slapshot136.
I guess I have to play with this tool to understand the idea completely.
The screenshot itself looks kind of weird
I guess it is a graphical view of the folder sizes... I like the idea... I will put it on my list, but for later.
Thanks for the suggestion.

Thanks for the response ippon.
Can you please give me some more details, the app is lightning fast on my Nexus One and even on the an old HTC Magic that I use for additional tests it runs acceptable?
In Germany the device you have mentioned is not available, what kind of device is this (Android version, cpu speed, internal sd card or just an external etc)?
Do you use an external Sd card and if yes which speed class did it have?
Is the app unresponsive all the time? Or just during the collection of data? (you can see this by watching the progress indicator at the button right (status bar).
How many files and capacity do you have on your external storage? (values in the status bar after the data collection as been finished)
Thanks again and sorry for all the questions .

this is the captivate. it is one of the galaxy s variants.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/index.php?title=Samsung_Galaxy_S/SGH-I897
i am using a class 4 8gb micro sd card and the phone has 16gb of storage built in.
the app has been very unresponsive for me at all time, and not just during the collection of data and i frequently get the 'sorry! activity storage analyser (in process storage analyser) is not responding. force close or wait.'
i currently has 10.1 GB in 13,159 files.
i hope this helps a bit.
Thanks for your feedback ippon.
I'll see what I can do
That the app is unresponsive even if the data collection is finished is kind of strange though...
I have tested the app on the European version of the Galaxy S (currently on Android 2.2) and it was working well.
Thanks again.
Lars
New Update available...
Please check the first post of this thread to see the changeLog. (no improvment for your problem Ippon ... at least not now ...)

Hi.
Small bug fix release.
Please find the version history in the first post of this thread.
this is great, very helpful, clean interface, and most importantly, well-integrated into the OS (clicking on an apk offers to install it, clicking on an app-on-sd brings up application info, etc).
The only thing i'd like is multi-select and select-all. It'd be nice to be able to delete all files in a folder, without deleting the folder itself.
Great app!!!
It's ok in X10 Mini Pro with 8gb sd card
Very good!!!
Thanks!

Everywhere Clipboard extends Android clipboard function and brings real desktop clipboard experience to you on mobile phone. Everywhere Clipboard is a Windows Office style clipboard panel which records copied items into a history stack. In addition to that, the clipboard panel can be opened anywhere in any application without the need to leave your current window or switch to different windows. To bring up the panel, just click on a tiny trigger icon located at the edge of your screen and the panel will expand. Brought to you by the same Dev who made Smart Taskbar and Button Savior.
If you are a serious email or note taking user like me, you might find it improve your overall productivity a lot because there is no more app switching back and forth for simple text copy and paste action.
Download From Market
Features
☆ Instant on, always available clipboard panel
☆ Manage content to copy from files/folders
☆ Built in note editor for quick file creation
☆ Quick copy from any .txt files
☆ Supports both clipboard history based or file based copy
☆ More to come.............

Is there any way I can invoke this from Smart Taskbar? I'm a Pro user and like the idea but would prefer to have a way to pop up Smart Taskbar and quickly select Everywhere Clipboard so it overlays the original app (the one that was active when I activated STB). Does that make sense?
tks
great
another kiumiu style app. i'd like to have the pro version.

Great idea, didn't know it could be done
Makes getting to your clipboard very easy. I have never seen something done that way, honestly would not of though it was possible (floating the icon off to the side everywhere?!). As a dev I am trying to wrap my brain around how you accomplished that. That is pretty damn cool. If you have a blog I would love to read about it.
On a side note, the xda article Enjoy Copy and Paste The Way it was Meant to be... states this: "With this new app, you can copy text from any app in your device". You didn't really say that in the market description and I wasn't able to copy and paste from apps like Facebook or Twitter unless they already allow it. I think some people might think find what xda has said a little confusing. Then again I could be wrong about all of this and it's just not working on my device DroidX 2.3. Let me know.
Thanks!
I just bought thee app. I don't have much time to test right now.
Please add an option to disable the message in the notification area.
I've been using andclip as my clipboard manager.
I like Everywhere Clipboard better for the always available "trigger" popup...But andclip has an option to allow you to manually enter entries, whereas I don't see such an option with EC.
I could just open some text editor and type in entries and select->copy as a workaround, but if EC could be updated to include this feature native...I'd definitely make the switch from the other app and buy EC.
Thanks!
Some more feedback:
- Can you please make the settings accessible via the popup? Having to go to the apps list and find 'clipboard' everytime I need to make changes is annoying
- Have a 'Permanent' items tab (or maybe integrate into the 'notes' tab?) so I can freely clear out any "junk" in the 'clipboard' tab, but still have all my important items available without having to re-add them.
- Move the enable/disable message into 'Ongoing' notifications...This way it's not taking up space on the notification bar, but it's still available via notifications pulldown
Sorry if it seems I'm pestering, but I'm very much liking EC's popup clipboard and want to make the switch...Just needs a little tweaking and I'm there.
QR code please
Will this work within the native email program on a Droid X?

Yes. Everywhere Clipboard's quick panel can be opened anywhere in any app.

I am not sure if i understand this clearly but I think EC has this feature also (manually delete clipboard entries) in current version. But you have to do that in EC's main window, not in the quick panel. So you have to switch to the main app window to do all kind of micro management jobs. I will also try my best to make quick panel able to do some item/file management features.
O!M!F!G! How could I live without this wonderful app?!
Thank you VERY much!

Hi,
There are many windowParams in Android. With propery param combination, you can make popup like the one in my app.
Very nice app! Just bought the Pro version.
Would it be possible to add an option to clear clipboard automatically after a certain time?
I am using KeePassDroid and it has option to clear copied data from clipboard after specified time, but it appears that this data would not clear itself from Everywhere Clipboard.
If it's not possible to integrate this functionality between apps, adding own clear timer to Everywhere Clipboard would be nice.
Thanks!
yes the 'anywhere' is misleading.
you cant copy text from anywhere, infact i cant find a place that will copy text any differently than the normal select/copy text.
so for me, this is kinda pointless at this moment because 99% of the time i need to copy text from someplace that doesnt normally allow text to be copied.
i mean any place with text that is not embedded, like an image.
V1.1 updated on July 20, 2011
Fixed:
(1) Incorrect popup location when trigger side is set to left
(2) Removed a trailing linefeed when copy from txt
(3) Fixed Pause button trigger area wider than displayed.
Sorry guys. I forgot to add the toast notification once again !
Will do it few days later
hi jerryfan I was not able to paste the copied text with this app i tried everything is it possible or not
or it is just a history recorder of copied text

Sure, I just sent you the answer in a PM. Thank you for your interest in my App
Cool app so far, but how do you access the menu to delete and open files? Since the app doesn't have an overflow menu, I'm thinking it requires a device with a dedicated menu button. If that's the case, you should be aware that almost all devices made in the past 2 years do not have dedicated menu buttons, so the majority of users cannot access all of the features of your app.
Nice
Nice app! I like how it builds the blocks as it scans.

Lollipop adds a dynamic menu button if it detects the app has one (see attachment). Alternatively, if you're on Jelly Bean or Kit Kat & have a compatible device / ROM, GravityBox has the option to add a menu button to the nav bar. @NexradSoftware: I suggest changing the long press option to activate the context menu.
Nice! But if you ask me the borders from folder with other apps included in subfolders are not visible enough.
the .thumbnails folder here totally includes Xperia and 100Andro, doesn't it ?
Enable download in play store for Italy.

After I run the scan my screen goes black but if I click on the screen it will show the selected item.

So far on all the tests I did on different Android devices (and emulator tests) there were always a way to access the menu button even if it is as you mentioned not present by default on recent devices. However maybe it's good idea to add another way to access it just in case (a button in the top bar or through a long press as yochananmarqos proposed in a later post).
Thank you for raising this point

It looks like a quite annoying bug I never had/catched in my tests... I will try to test it again on your device model (Samsung Galaxy S3 right?). Is it happening each time you run it (100%) ?
