Hi, I recently published my first android application on Google Play.
It's a tool to help you verify that the files on your device are not corrupted (incomplete download, ...).
It can be used to:
- verify a file tagged with a CRC32 checksum in the file name (My_Video_[89AF8C3D].avi).
- verify files with a .sfv file. The .sfv file contains a list a files and their CRC32 checksums.
- verify files with a .md5 file. This .md5 file can contains a list a files and their MD5 checksum or only the MD5 checksum (it will verify the file with the same name without the .md5 extension).
- verify files with a .sha1 file.
- verify a .tar.md5 file. It will find the md5 checksum at the end of the file to verify the tar part.

Please check out the app and let me know if you have any problems, questions, suggestions.
Thanks
A new version is available that can generate a sfv/md5/sha1 file from the selected files.
Thank you sir, exactly what i've been looking for ;]
What an excellent app, thanks a lot !

This was EXACTLY what I was looking for. It does what it supposed to do, check the SFV file on Android.
I dont know why this is not in Google Play, I had to download it from your site.
One side note, when I quick the app, it hangs, "Unfortunately, FilesChecker has stopped" error, with the lastest version from your site, v1.5.4.
EDIT
And I couldnt run it on my S5301 with android 4.0.4.
Probably because it has low resolution?
great app, thank you!
Is there any way to get the app to read from an SD Card?

What is it? i read somewhere that if a radio and checksum don't match, it has a negative effect.
its pretty simple. its just a set of numbers and letters, if they match up perfectly with the one in the op of the radio or rom then your good to go. If they dont match you run the risk of bricking your phone. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=706705

Download it again and check. No way to fix it if it's corrupt, i.e. MD5 sums don't match.
MD5 is a mathematical algorithm, used in encryption and other security applications.
When you run MD5 software on a file it performs the calculation and out comes a long hexedecimal number which is refered to as the MD5 checksum.
It's customary for this checksum to be posted along with the link to files such as ROMs and radios.
When you download, you can then run your own MD5 software on the downloaded file. It will perform the exact same mathematical calculation and give you the MD5 checksum of the file you have downloaded.
If your checksum matches the one posted by the dev, you can be sure you have an accurate copy of the downloaded file. If they don't match, then your download is either corrupt, or possibly some kind of trojan.
You should never install any software if the MD5 sum does not match the one provided by the dev. Instead, try downloading the file again, perhaps from a different mirror. If all else fails, contact the dev as it's possible they might have posted an incorrect checksum, or may have an alternate means by which you can obtain the file.

use any file manager you have and navigate to the zip file
tap and hold on it and select properties
somewhere it will say show md5 checksum or calculate md5 checksum
you will see a row of numbers and letters
then check it if it is the same withe one from the download link
Here is a MD5 checker for windows machines. It calculates the MD5 then displays a form with two buttons, you can either paste a MD5 into the text box and then check the calculated MD5 with the entered MD5 to see if they match.
Or after calculating the MD5 you can simply get the MD5 of the file you selected. Its very easy to use.
Find your file in windows explorer, right click on the file, and then select "Send To" and choose MD5 Checker and thats it

The MD5 of the attachments in this post.....if the person is downloading your app (unless they did as I have just done - I have an MD5 checker already) would suggest that they don't have an MD5 app already so the numbers you have posted seen pointless to the end user. They would have to install your app to check the integrity of the file they just downloaded.....and the purpose of providing the MD5 number is to check the download for either corruption and/or misformation caused by malware insertion etc.
Some constructive feedback. The installer looks nice and professional.
The app....how does it work? I have been using MD5 check and SHA1 and SHA2 checking for quite sometime now (so I know what I am talking about). I have mine setup through right click context menus.
Do you select the app in explorer with your app open and then go generate MD5??? No instructions?
Your uninstall method is messy and lefts junk/fragments etc in on the drive. The directory remain as well as the uninstall executable.

Uninstall isn't even mine. It's auto created by the packaging tool I'm using.
I kind of also have left this to the side as it doesn't seem popular.
And I don't know what you mean by saying posting the md5s of my tool is pointless. It's just a reference for people to familiarize themselves with md5 hash keys.
And all you do is select the file you want to check and right click it then select "send to" then "md5 checker" and it will generate the hash key then enable the interface.
Again I pretty much quit this. Nobody's interested.

give stars for the tool
one star for the sig whats up with that post in that forum? that angry person is crazy lol. Does he own the servers that run xda? i Mean is he the boss? Can't be. I dunno I gotta find out what thats about though its going drive me crazy if i don't pm me even pleasee lol
I know you said you pretty much quit this, but I just discovered it, and I am interested in getting it working as described in the OP.
I installed your program & set up the sendto, but the MD5 Checker.exe GUI front end for md5sum.exe isn't working. "Get MD5" doesn't do anything, and "Check MD5" always returns a mismatch.
Is this incompatible with Win7 x64, or have I screwed something up installing it?
Thanks.
I hope I'm posting in the right place...
I'm searching for a reliable Android App that can grab the MD5 of a file (apk, zip, etc...) and save it to a file.
I attached an MD5 file as an example. That is an MD5 file i had manually created.
I also had added the .txt to the end so I could upload it.
Thanks a bunch!
***EDIT/UPDATE: I've found an older tool for generating the MD5 file and updated it (for better compatibility). I now have a workaround for this small, yet important, hurdle. Thank you!
Hey all,
This "small app" has recently become broken because the source for the currency file's URL has changed.
When the app is newly installed, it pops an error at first launch:
"Unable to download currency file. Please try again later".
It broke around mid-july 2018.
What I'm looking for is the latest available currency file so that the program can at least work (even if it can't update).
It should be located at:
Android/data/com.sony.smallapp.currency/files/
If someone could kindly .zip and upload the "files" folder here, it would be majorly helpful.
Thanks.
i think is that the data to work again
I think is the data to work..i hope work again

Thanks much for your reply stathis, sadly that doesn't fix it.
If your device is rooted, could you copy and upload the following folder as well:
/data/data/com.sony.smallapp.currency/
I believe something in the .xml changes when the soft has successfully downloaded the .csv file by itself.
Thank you.
This is only found ..i hope work

I clear data from the app and delete the .csv file from Android/data/com.sony.smallapp.currency/files/ and the app not work after i put again the file .csv and work again
and i made and one backup with Titanium backup if can help
It worked finally!
Also while the app's internal update mechanism is broken, we can update manually, here is the most recent currency database file :
https://www4.bcb.gov.br/Download/fechamento/20180927.csv
Thank you again for your help!
Here's how to update manually:
1. Download the newest .csv file from: https://ptax.bcb.gov.br/ptax_internet/consultarTodasAsMoedas.do?method=consultaTodasMoedas
2. Delete the old .csv file and copy the new .csv file in:
Android/data/com.sony.smallapp.currency/files/
3. Disable WiFi, then launch Currency Converter app. It'll detect and use the newest .csv
4. Done!
I am searching for an aplication for android that can generate .md5 .sha1 and .sha256 checksum files. Not just the hash value but the actual file. And verify them again later. Just like in for example total commander for windows.
Do you mean some apps which work like the context menu item, 'CRC SHA', of File Explorer in Windows 10?

IMO you don't need an app to create MD5 checksum of a file and store it, you simply run in an Android terminal
Code:
md5 <FILE-NAME> > <MD5-CHECKSUM-FILE>
to achieve this.
Yes i know that but i am looking for an app where i simply chose one or multiple files and it generates .md5 checksum files for them an can verify them again by opening the .md5 file in the app and comparing the md5 value in it against the original file like many windows checksum apps or file managers can.
I guess such an app doesn't exist. Hence you have to create it at your own.
With regards to APK-files ( what simply are ZIP-files ) you may try
zipcmp · libzip
libzip.org
Thank you for the answer
