How to create a shortcut to a picture in Android 10.3 on One Plus 6 - OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers

I have a OnePlus6 with Android 10.3 Have taken a picture of scanning card that admits me to gym. Driving me crazy that I can't create a shortcut to the screen so that I can use my cell phone to bring up the picture to have it scanned for gym admission. I have both File Manager and free Es File Explorer. Couldn't figure out how to do this with either app. Hope someone can help here. There probably is very simple way to do this.

I use Material Files file manager. It does have support for shortcuts. You click triple dots next to the file and click create shortcut. I think it is a popular feature, I wouldn't be surprised if built-in file manager could do that.

Thanks very much.

Tried your suggestion and it worked like a charm. Very simple. Until this, it was hard for me to believe android system didn't have way to create shortcut for pic

file managers - multiple selection to delete

as per the title, on the various file managers I've tried, I havn't been able to sus out how to select more than one jpg (for example) in a dir to del all at once.. is this an android or app function that isn't available or am I a noob and missing someing?
If you use astro file manager, you have an option on the toolbar called 'multi', you then select the files you want to delete, then the same toolbar will show different options, and here ul find the one called 'delete'!
Hope it helps!!

spot on thanks!!
If you don't want to deal with the ads in Astro, you can also use ES File Explorer. That too supports multi-select.
Or Just Install a patch that removes ADs from Astro FM.
Just google a little
Cheers

for all of androids goodness there are some glaring omissions from basic OS functionallity..
I'm sure there are reasons this kind of thing are not in the basic android interface, but as a simple end user they would be very useful.
Thanks for the other input on alternatives and hacks for ads.. --> strangly though I don't mind paying for apps or taking an ad supported one to support the devs.. unlike most software on my desktop :/ wierdness

Gallery : any alternative to this crappy app ?

Hello every body.
I guess this have been already discussed, but I can't find a thread about that. So, I started this one.
I am very disappointed with the stock Gallery App :
- Shows only the leaf folders in a flat mode
- Folder names shortened (no place to see the entire name)
- Maintains a useless "parallel database" and won't show "non-indexed" pictures
- Scans the whole memory card (instead of only a "PICTURES" folder)
- Lags sometimes until the "parallel database" is finished (which takes a long time)
To sumarize, I would greatly prefer something working as :
- Windows file explorer + Windows picture wiewer OR
- ACD SEE
Do you know if there is an alternative app that can be installed AND
launched by the camera when clicking on "view pictures" ?
Thank you for yours answers.
There are several gallery replacement apps in the Market. Did you search in it for any?
JustPictures gets a lot of good word about it across the forums, and even the generic Gallery3D app on the Market is suggested as a better replacement for the one that comes installed.
As for Gallery scanning the whole sdcard, that's not quite accurate as I understand. The "media" scanner scans the whole card for all kinds of media (pics, music, videos). If you want to speed it up, you can add a blank file called .nomedia to any folder that won't have media you want indexed in it. This tells the scanner to skip that folder and ALL it's subfolders.
QuickPic is a good alternative.

Run cmd.exe

Quickpic is indeed terrific.
It's kind of sad, about the stock Gallery app.

Or you can do it on the phone with Root Explorer (and probably most other file manager apps)...just navigate to the folder you want to put it in, hit menu, then more, then new file, and name it .nomedia in the popup dialog box.
Once you have a copy, you can always just copy and paste it everywhere you need.
I use JustPictures and it's much better than stock (which seriously sucks and it's gimmicky).
QuickPic is also great, but it doesn't have online capabilities (I like being able to view my SmugMug albums through JustPictures).
I really wish Android had a good Gallery app which combines photos, video and online capabilities.
Just downloaded JustPictures - thx to this thread!
I tried out QuickPic from this thread's recommendation, but is there an app that also browses the video files like the gallery does?
Total bummer that I have to open another app to access my recorded videos.
Any suggestions?
QuickPic does show both pictures and videos.
Thanks for the recommendation. QuickPic is soooooo much better than 3D Gallery on my phone.
I've tried QuickPic and JustPictures, none of these apps are OK.
QuickPic : is fast, but still show my folders in a flat mode.
JustPictures : won't show my PICTURES folder (which contains 1000 folders and 30000 files) where I've placed a .nomedia. If I don't do that, this infamous media scanner scans it, and makes my phone heat, and causes my battery to drain.
Edit : wrong : there's an option for that
But ES Explorer + Quick Pic is OK :
- ES Explorer to browse folders
- Quick Pic to display pictures

Great job guys.

Okay guys, I'm going to give a testimony.
I've used Astro, ES, Linda and then this. This is a COMPLETE package. I love how I can grab some files from my laptop wirelessly, have root access, and have a beautiful file manager all at once. This has been the best file manager I've ever used, and I highly recommend it.

Hi,
thank you for recommending FE! We think it's time to change, Astro and ES are good app but we think we can provide more useful and powerful alternative.
Amazing app, I switched a couple weeks ago. I put in feature requests on your forum, mainly for a refresh button for the toolbar.
Some other things that would be nice:
more archive support (7z for example)
And the 'download any file from the browser's feature astro has.
I use FE primarily, but because it lacks 7z support and the browser download feature I am forced to keep two other file managers handy.
Anyway this app is still superior to all other file managers, keep up the good work!
This is a really cool app. One request:
Option to show Toolbar only when at least one item is checked, or by pressing Menu while at least one item is checked.
Also, for some reason it takes a while (around 1 full second) for the Operation menu to show after I click on the button. Should it take this long?
I'm totally trying it!!!! As soon as I get home

No, it's not. I have tested the popup speed when touching the Oper button on various phones and tablets, all of them shows the menu immediately. I cannot feel any delay.

My phone and more information is in my signature. See below. I avoided the problem by putting the cut, copy, and delete functions as buttons in the toolbar instead.

Doesn't work for me. App themes work, but nothing shows in the gif window no matter what I search. Share button doesn't do anything either, but that could just be because there is nothing to share. Gif Overlay is set to be allowed to draw over other apps in my device btw.

That should only happen if there is an error contacting the server for the search or parsing the search response data.
Could you check adb logcat messages? You should see some error there.

Got it to work! For some reason it didn't work until I disabled my VPN. Then after a successful gif search I rebooted the device and it seemed to be working fine with my VPN. It works great now for most apps, but for the few that it doesn't, is it possible to maybe allow for the Gif to be somehow copied right into whatever text field you're in or is sharing to the app the only way? Great app though btw. Thank you!

As far as I know, you can copy the image to the clipboard. The problem is that the app where you are pasting will not understand you are pasting an image unless they have implemented that.

Generally, when you touch and hold an image in an app you can share or download it and share it to wherever, but i don't think I've ever seen a "Copy to Clipboard" option except when copying text. I see what you mean about pasting the image though and maybe a gif would be even more complicated to do that with.
I wonder if it would be better if you set it the touch and hold the image function to download the gif instead. Then you could add it anywhere.

Thank you! I tried it out and for some reason I'm still having connection problems. Even turning off my VPN doesn't seem to make it search. I noticed that sometimes when turning off my WiFi connection it will search right away, but not all the time. I wonder if I'm the only one having this issue. When it does search it does appear to download, but even when searching my entire sdcard for "gif" or ".gif" or even the name that it says it saved as afterwards I can't seem to find where it saves. It seems as if maybe it's not really saving, at least as a gif. Can't find it when opening the gallery either. Opening it in gallery from the download notification does show it, but it doesn't allow you to view any details on it either, nor does it let you share it when opening it like that. URL copy works fine, though maybe a toast message saying it's copied would help to let people know that it has copied, otherwise, unless you try to paste somewhere it appears as if it's done nothing. Share works fine as usual. Anyhow, I hope this helps. Thank you!

Can't see anything weird in the logs.
The download triggers the android downloadmanager so the file can go to some weird place like /data/data/com.android.providers.download. I could change it so it goes to the downloads folder but then I need to add an extra permission.
And yeah adding some sort of message or toast is a good idea.

That would be great. I think I figured out that it goes to "/data/data/gif.overlay/cache/image_manager_disk_cache". The files in there were ".0" format, but when I changed it to ".gif" they showed the gifs I was trying to download. Assuming those aren't just the cached images from the search that is. Regardless you can't really access them or share them when they're outside of the sdcard.

No the ones inside the gif.overlay folder are either cached images from the search (those are not the final version but downsampled images to make it faster) or files saved before sharing. The downloaded ones should end up as giphy.gif somewhere where the downloadmanager puts it (in my case /data/data/com.android.providers.download).

Yeah. Just checked and you're right. The gifs do go to"/data/data/com.android.providers.download/cache/". Strange that they weren't showing up in my system wide search. Regardless, it would be cool if they could go to the "downloads" or "pictures" or a "/sdcard/Gif Overlay/" folder or something. Then there would be no end to the possibilities.
Now I just have to figure out why it's only connecting like half the time. Just tried again and it worked. Earlier though it wasn't. It must be something on my end. Not sure.
EDIT: Downloaded "Advanced Download Manager" from the Play Store and set it to auto incercept copied links for now, so that now I just have to click the copy function in the app and ADM asks me where I want to save it to. Clean flashed a new rom too and now I'm not having any more connection issues btw. Must've been something blocking it on my old configuration.

How to create a shortcut on Android to a Windows folder, not using ESFileExplorer

Hi - it is easy to create a shortcut on my Android 6.0.1 desktop to a Windows 10 folder using ES File Explorer. The trouble is I find ES File Explorer really irritating these days and want to uninstall it. Is there any other way to create a shortcut on the Android desktop? I have tried one or two file managers such as Solid Explorer, File Commander, but can't see a way to do it...
Did you try like that ?

It has waaaaaay to much going on for it now. With the " junk cleaners" and "charge boosters" and all that. As android enthusiasts, we find that insulting. Because we know it doesn't work/makes much of a difference.
ES was based on relevance and simplicity once. Now its just as toxic as an app developed by Cheetah Mobile.

Yeah, I avoid those extra useless features and still use ES without ever encountering them.
All they did was incorporate a couple of the other ES apps into ES File Explorer instead of having them as separate apps, e.g. ES Task Manager and such.
They have quite a way to go before they're as bad as Cheetah Mobile.

Thanks very much for the older version ... the shortcut seems to work.
Strange that no other apps offer a homescreen shortcut to a windows folder since I guess at some point this old ES will cease to work..

All they did was incorporate a couple of the other ES apps into ES File Explorer instead of having them as separate apps, e.g. ES Task Manager and such.
They have quite a way to go before they're as bad as Cheetah Mobile.

Then maybe you can try the version I just uploaded. It has all the useful features minus the bloat.
Maybe they're not really as bad as Cheetah Mobile. But because they were held at a higher standard, they just seem like more of a disappointment.
I don't know what happened, my guess is that they sold the company. It sucks tho.

Well I try to disable them but they keep popping up all over the place. And the largest font is so small I can't see anything anyway! Using a Xperia Z3C...
Thanks very much for the older version ... the shortcut seems to work.
Strange that no other apps offer a homescreen shortcut to a windows folder since I guess at some point this old ES will cease to work..

If it gets to where I'm aggravated by newer versions of ES File Explorer I'll revert to an older version, I'd rather not depend on a version that will at some point no longer work.
