I was writing an email using Pocket Outlook and wanted to attach a file but there seems to be no way to navigate to the file using Pocket Outlook. All it offers are folders. It doesn't seem to allow me to navigate to subfolders.
Is there a way to make this possible or has it been overlooked?
The weird thing is that attaching images allows me to navigate the subfolders. It is just attaching normal files where navigating subfolders is disallowed. Really strange descision.
I usually use resco explorer, select the file and select send via mms/email, it's easier, faster.
There's also a replacement for the default (ridiculous)file picker, you may try to look for that.

I was looking for a replacement, but couldn't find it.
Using resco explorer, is it possible to sende multiple files attached in 1 email?
I tried selecting multiples files and then send via mms/email but nothing happened, but resco has built-in support for compressing files, so, just compress them and send the archive.
I'm trying to open files from ES file Manager over lan, particularly cbr files but it won't let me saying there are no programs for it. Is there a way you can assign it?
How to browse files on phone via win 7 explorer.
I use wifi router which has my computer connect via lan cable (wired connection) & other computer/laptop & phone connected via wifi.
From the phone using es file explorer I can surf the lan on windows 7 computer but I cant surf the files on phone from win 7 explorer, it does not even show in devices connected (using usb connection it shows) so I assume that something else needs to be switched on or connected, can someone tell me what do I need to do so I can browse phone files via windows explorer?
if you have an sd card in the phone and the drivers installed, you can browse the files on the sd card via usb connection. if you're trying to browse ROOT files (which you forgot to mention), the only way to see root folder files on your computer is to install android commander and follow the instructions. google it, and good luck.
Do you want to browse your phone files through wifi? There are multiple ways:
1) connect to your phone through samba. Install Samba Filesharing and you'll see the phone in your network.
2) connect to your phone through ftp. Install one of the many app in the market, like this or a file manager (many of them allow you to share folders through ftp or even http) and in windows explorer simply type the address shown in the app (ftp://192.XXXXXXX)
3) use airdroid (it will allow you to do also other stuff, like sending sms)
Wao!

Both are paid apps whereas airdroid is free & the interface airdroid offers is far better than anything I have seen. With airdroid I can do much more than just file transfer like sending sms.

I suggest you use USB Mass Storage If you want to view files on your sd card. If you want to view rooted files on your phone I suggest using android commander.
Try to get MY PHONE EXPLORER it's free can save SMS, contacts, restore, install apps, backup, view folders, edit them and many things for FREE!
and yeah I've used all the above said apps, and more but nothing beats my phone explorer, IMHO

I have been using myphoneexplorer last 6 years & yes its the best what it does but what actually I was looking for was to use windows explorer to surf the files but have not succeeded in doing that.
Using these software both airdroid & myphoneexplorer File transfer is slow 1.6-1.8Mbps so 1gb file takes almost 10 mins time I thought it could be faster if I use windows explorer but seems its wifi limitation.
I use 54Mbps B/G/N wifi router & have class 6 SD card, when I use usb connection the file download is much faster within 2-3 mins for 1gb data.
Transfer files wirelessly is always slower.
Note that the speed you see when you download a file through airdroid (or anything else) is usually expressed in MBps and not Mbps, they are different things. Your router support a max speed of 56Mbps which is equal to 7MB/s. That said, 2MB/s is not that bad, you also have to consider that it's hard to achieve the max speed, you need to be near the router.
For huge USB is the best.
(For file transfers I think that the others two method are better, airdroid is not so confortable.)
Ok I will try the two methods & see if the speed can be faster, if no speed gain then I stick to myphoneexplorer only as it has everything minus the user interface of airdroid.
BTW I have the router right beside me 3 feet away.
I'm just wondering is there an app that can transfer files over wi-fi? back when I was on iPhone, they had apps that allowed you to wirelessly transfer files from your PC to your phone. searched around and nothing came up.
Also I'm on CM9, is there a way to NOT sync your media that's on your SD card to the Gallery? I've only found how to not sync it with my emails. When I was on stock, the gallery didn't sync with my SD card.
Thanks in advance.
Air droid, WiFi file explorer etc. there's literally loads lol, where did you search ?

The sync issue is simple to fix also. You create a file called .nomedia and place it in what every directories you dont want to sync.
I just enable the FTP server feature in ES File Explorer, that way I can still use Windows Explorer to copy files to my phone.

So I have a main folder and then a sub folder. I created the .nomedia in the subfolder which contained what I didnt wanna sync but it still shows up in the Gallery. If i make it in the main folder then nothing syncs in the Gallery, not even the camera roll.
Did you reboot and fix permissions?
Hi,
We have many apps like smartftp or Webdav Server or even ES File explorer that can create temp server on phone that can be accessible on PC via web browser or any ftp client.
Is there any app or trick, where these server will be always active / running . So that i can access my phones storage from my pc without manually starting the app every time.
(this can be a general question but still required i m using samsung gal Y S5360 )
best wishes

In the setting option in remote manager of ES File Explorer, just select the Create Shortcut, it'll create a shortcut on home screen
but still i need my phone alongside me to touch that shortcut and start the ftp server.
(If my PC is on i can access the shared folders by entering the credentials in LAN section of ES File Explorer. I dont need anything to do at my PC end... same way, if my phone is not laying near me it wont be possible to touch and start the FTP service.)
so is there a way, where this service will be started with phone boot and run in background without any disturbance and just keep running.
airdroid is not an option as it will need both devices connected to internet. ...
currently i m asking the solution where both the devices are connected to same Local Area Network.(wifi router)
