What do folks use for ROOT File exploring with a tablet? I can see articles on ROOT file explorers with phones but not tablets? Likewise, file explorers for tablets but they don't mention root access.
Curious if there are any recommendations?
Thanks, LongTrail
Root Explorer and ES File explorer work just fine.

Yep...I use Root Explorer. I've been using it ever since I started using the android system.
Super Manager is another choice. Can't post links yet, but it's in the Market.
file manager hd - its honeycomb optiimized, lets you make bookmarks. I like root explorer on my phones, but prefer the hd tablet layout of hd file manager.
Is in the market.

your advice helped me a lot!
Late to the game, but this file explorer allows root

It's my favorite File Manager...especially if you have a NAS as it allows bookmarks.
Thread is nearly 2 years old.... I imagine OP has found one by now
Use the solid explorer, its the best file manager ever ( in my opinion)

R: [Q] Root file explorer APP for tablets
The best file managers i've ever tried are solid explorer and total commander
Inviato dal mio Transformer TF101 usando XDA Premium HD app
+1 for Solid Explorer, has saved me so much time when transferring files between directories.
I don't understand how to access "ADB Push"
and I have no money for Root Explorer, all I'm trying to do is install Lite'ning Rom..
If you've rooted your phone try ES File Explorer... Just go into settings and enable root options, then move whatever files around you need.
And as Sduvick would say, questions belong in the general forum. This one is for developmental posts.
Agreed this is in the wrong section but....Here is a link to a Root file Explorer app called Androotfile Manager. He offers it as a paid app on market but also offers it as a free app on his site.
Link to his site for free download.
Link to the Market for paid app.

If you're on Windows, here's a good intro to ADB.
Personally I use ADB to the exclusion of other methods, but I'm a Linux geek.
There is also Droid Explorer for Windows. It uses ADB in a nice Windows gui file-manager interface:

Hey guys. Today I have come with a new list i.e. my 4th "List of" threads for almost all the file managers for your sd card. So, enjoy and have fun with it. Btw Click Here to download my application called Androidape Blog for this for Android so that you guys can directly download the application from play store. Btw, this app gets data from androidape.blogspot.com. So, you may be charged for data usage.
PS: Some file managers are of the same name but they are quite different some each other since their devs are different.

If you consider result/effort ratio, the numbers will rise only if the thread helps one decide which file manager to install.

Root Explorer is one of the best ones out here for sure, but if you are running a tablet (or a Galaxy Note in tablet mode like i do) i would recommend AntTek Explorer.

+1 Solid Explorer is a must !
will be trying out solid explorer and would then add it to the poll list .. thanks for the feedback for polls
Do one of these file explorers show file copy progress in a window, including remaining time?
ES File explorer does a very basic one and is only in notification window, it's not that good. Root Explorer shows nothing, just a "Paste in progress".
Afaik solid shows a window including a progress bar...but atm i haven't installed it, so don't blame me if I'm wrong.
Whats your favourite file manager? Post it here!
ASTRO File Manager
ES File Explorer
+1 ES File Explorer.
Althought I didn't try a lot of file managers...
I've had a few, and generally install ES if one doesn't come with a ROM.
Once you find one that works though, they're all much of a muchness
Sorry, but I had to close this thread. First, there is already an app discussion thread here and this thread was already being dominated by 1 or 2 word answers...and a list of File Managers isn't really that helpful to anyone.
Thanks!
