Thanks for the nice find!

gr8 idea.. very useful

Very disappointed with this app because:
1. The code is changed every time you use it, so you cant save the code.
2. Everytime the phone is rotated, the code automatically changed, making it disconnect.
3. Its not a simple file manager, just shows all files in one list, takes the P1$$

1) It's much more secure to generate a random code every time. I am sure you can see why this is...
2) I experienced this as well, not sure why, but you can obviously avoid this by just keeping the phone in one position .
3) What were you expecting? It's something that is online on a web page, it can't really be a full featured file manager.

this is much better, been here the longest

Nice!! I've always used File Expert it's only 1.7MB and with it you can share files across FTP, enable web sharing, but I mainly use it to access my shared network files on my Windows PC and as a general file explorer. It's regularly updated too!

WiFi Explorer beats them all I think.. https://market.android.com/details?id=com.dooblou.WiFiFileExplorer&feature=search_result

Well, the developer has been in touch with me, he has put out an update that fixes the rotating problem. He has also said he will work on adding support for re-using the same code, and will put a treeview on the file manager

[APP] CalcTunes - Desktop-style music player for Android [ALPHA 0.47]

I've been working on this for almost a year now off and on. I wanted a media player that gave me more control then the stock player included with Gingerbread (CM7). This drove me to try other players such as MortPlayer, which could play folders directly. It lacked the ability to have multiple root folders, however, so on a device with multiple storage directories (internal, sdcard, network server, USB, etc) it made listening to music difficult. The new players in ICS still fail to achieve this, as the Android MediaScanner backend they use only looks for auto-mounted locations. If you use NTFS, ext3, USB storage, or any other system that Android will not automatically mount, it will not find your music.
To remedy this, I decided to write my own music player (which is also my first Android app) based around the concept of having multiple "libraries" which are built by selecting a set of root directories to scan. You can have more than one library, such as having all of your home server's music scanned in but a separate library for on-device files. Libraries can span multiple storage locations or just single locations.
It's still very much a work in progress, but it's stable enough to be useful. I just implemented a swipe system to switch between views, adding a track info view which has tag and file info as well as a large album art view. Eventually I want to add Last.Fm artist/song info, lyrics, and possibly other content to this view using tabs. The scanner will pull album art from Last.Fm when you scan a library.
I also added support for DSPManager/AudioFX, which apparently is a per-app thing on CM9+ ROMs. It should be compatible with Gingerbread and up, one of my goals was to keep GB supported as I have an Archos tablet running CM7 that has a great DAC for audio.
The project is open source under GPL, hosted on GitHub here: https://github.com/CalcProgrammer1/CalcTunes
Version 0.47 Alpha: https://github.com/downloads/CalcProgrammer1/CalcTunes/CalcTunes.apk
I'd appreciate feedback, so far it's only been used by me and my friend. There are rough edges. For one, playlist functionality has not been implemented yet, so the placeholder items do nothing. The filesystem browsing is primitive. The notification doesn't work properly. Other than that, it should be reasonably stable.

[Reserved for additional updates]

The app is awesome but I think it needs some redesigning
The UI look squished in

It works great so far, running the same hard/software as you.
I greatly enjoy the UI.

The image not showing.

Wow looks really good except the orange color
The App force closes everytime I click on the record icon
I am on Android 4.1.2 / HTC ONE X

I will definitely try this one and would like to suggest two things for future updates - 1. .lrc format lyrics support. and 2. a customizable music widget which could support different skins. Thank you.

It force closes when trying to add a folder to the library and when clicking on the record
System only shows the files on the internal memory (sdcard) but all my music is on the external (sdcard-ext)
Using Atrix 4G rooted Stock 2.3.6

You can change the color in the settings, I use orange to match my phone's theme. As for the force close, I forgot to add that you need OpenIntents OI File Manager (or CM File Manager on many CM ROMs) as I use its file selection intent to select library folders. I would like to add a widget eventually, but first I want to improve the media info view, add playlists, and improve the notification to show album art and have controls on ICS+ devices where it is supported.

Turn off small-screen mode in settings, it is broken and needs work. That looks awful compared to what it should (some reason two lines were highlighted? small screen now-playing bar has broken year field?) and the new large-screen layout uses swiping. Like I said, still very much an alpha release!

Very Useful Thank You So Mutch !:victory::victory::victory::victory::victory::victory::victory:

Awesome man.. Great JOB, Rep added .
Very convenient and light app. much better than Airdroid.

AWESOMEEEEE MATE !!!! thats almost the perfect apk to drag and drop files from and to your device...
BUT :
- i would like to drag and drop files ( which are already in the phone ) from one folder to another, without clicking the box and click on "move". ( just like click and hold the item and drag and drop it to the folder )
- Media View is awesome, but really slow because it wants to show a little preview... thats my solution : the programm should only load the preview of the file, which you can see in the window you are scroling , not every file which you cannot see ....
- why dont you add some ads ? Who the hell cares ? You just need to ON/OFF the app, so nobody has to cry and you ll probably get some money for your hard work !
(sorry for that horrible english )

very nice app
Brilliant. Nicely implemented media playback although I'd prefer if I could play with a local app rather than inside the browser.
Could you make it work with a wired Ethernet connection as well as wifi? Thanks

The app is great I love it. I would however like it is there was a logout/sign out button, a way to clear recently uploaded files and get rid of the link to the app on the Play Store. Other then those changes the app is great. It does all I would ever really want it to do pretty quickly and easy to use too.

VNC server would be nice... otherwise it's almost the same as Airdroid.

Love the idea
Love the layout and design
Is there anyway to set it up to a computer that's using the same internet but is wired into the router as opposed to wirelessly?
I can't get it to connect because I don't have a wireless card on my PC.

what is different from airdroid?
can you add support for folder upload + drag/drag support for folder ?

thanks for dev this nice app
i will use and test it... befor this app i use wifi file transfer but this app looks be nicer!

[APP] Picture Manager - Rename pictures with a timestamp and organize to folders

What is Picture Manager?
Some manufactures like HTC and Sony (probably some more) save pictures taken with an incremented number in the filename, instead with a timestamp like other manufactures do.
When you factory reset your device, buy a new device or clean flash a custom rom, the camera picture counter gets reset and starts with e.g. IMAG_00001 again.
This can be an issue once you backup your files to a harddrive on your PC, because you will have duplicate filenames, although the pictures are actually different.
Picture Manager solves this problem by renaming your taken pictures with a timestamp format that you can select or even define yourself.
You can either start a batch process before you backup your pictures to your HDD, or automatically let Picture Manager rename your files in the background.
Another nice feature Picture Manager offers is that you can let it organize your taken pictures into folders that are named by the year, month and even day.
That will help you to quickly find your pictures again and brings some organization into you pictures.
Requirements
You have to be on at least Android 5.0 Lollipop
How does it work
Picture Manager relies on the EXIF Metadata that is stored into each picture. The EXIF Metadata contains a lot of information, the one Picture Manager needs is the date the picture was taken.
With that information Picture Manager can reliably rename and organize your pictures.
Tasker Plugin
Picture Manager comes with a Tasker Action Plugin. That means that you can start a batch process on different events, like time, when usb gets connected etc.
Premium features
If you want to use the custom format, background service or the Tasker plugin you need to upgrade to the premium version.
To upgrade you can use an in app purchase. Or you paypal me and I mail you a premium code. That way google doesn't get 30% of the income.

Downloads
Picture Manager is available in the playstore:
FAQ
Q: What about videos?
A: Picture Manager can also handle mp4 recorded videos.
Q: What about other manufactures than HTC and Sony?
A: I just know about those two that use an incremented number in their filename. If you know more, let me know. If your files are already timestamped you can still use the organizer to move your files into timestamped folders.
Q: After using the organizer I have sometimes missing files in my gallery?
A: Use the media scanner built in Picture Manager to make those files visible.
Q: Will the background service drain a lot of battery?
A: Picture Manager makes use of Androids JobSheduler, like Google Photos and Amazon Photos instant upload and is very battery friendly. When checking GSAM stats, it is nearly at the very bottom of the list.

Version 1.1.0 available
Additions and updates:
Timestamper format is shown more user friendly now
Added an info button to the custom format field with some examples.
