So is ES File explorer really cancerous adware spying on your screen now?

What do I use instead?
>>
Solid Explorer File Manager FULL v2.2 Final Cracked
>>
Root or no?
>>
Yes, it used to be good but now it is full-on malware bullshit, it's infuriating
I've switched to Speedsoftware's "Explorer" and it's a good replacement
>>
>>57035623
Amaze

MiXplorer or Solid Explorer.
>>
Total Commander just works. Why use anything else.

your phone is not secure no matter what

throw it away

+1 for Total Commander.

Do any of you guys even check what permissions your apps require? No one who does would ever have used ES.

Amaze would be nice but it seems to be fucked up in how it navigates the file structure of the phone. If they fixed that, I might switch.
>>
>>57035842
Switch to Lightning. Even has option to use it through Tor if you have Orbot installed.
>>
>>57035665
Is it just one APK you install with the crack? Or multiple? Do you trust them? Is it worth just buying?
>>
>>57035707
Literally this. No bloat and it's fucking beautiful.
>>
>>57035707
I've been using it too. It does what I need.
>>
>>57035907
You install just one apk, which is the cracked app. Been using that for months now and no problems so far
>>
>>57035872

would be pretty cool of google to enable that permissions firewall thing they had for like one version before it got patched out (hidden)
>>
>>57035623
Solid explorer pro with the FTP module for it for connecting to servers and windows shares over the network. And don't listen to >>57035665

Don't be a Jew. The app is like $3. The dev allows you to use the app free for 14 days to see if you like it. If you don't, uninstall and don't buy it.

Seriously. $3. A coffee and donut for a program you'll be using daily.

>>57035871

>>57035965

I used Amaze for a long time but it sometimes would refuse to copy/move files in my internal storage. Then it got updated and would completely refuse to open if I had some setting enabled. Not to mention it's laggy and has some UI inconsistencies.

Been using Solid Explorer for the past couple months, it's perfect.
>>
>>57035623
Total Commander is the only one which works properly with USB floppy drives. Why would you need anything else?
>>
>>57036336
>>57036000
>>57035977
Does Solid work well with flash drives? OTG and direct micro USB or what?
>>
>>57035993
I thought they let you disable individual permissions in Marshmallow

I'm fine with the built-in Android file manager, it does what I need it to do for the most part.
What I really want is software to connect to my computer with wirelessly. I hear Airdroid might be okay but if another filemanager can function in the way ES did with (I assume) Samba or something easy to set up, I would use that instead.

MiXplorer or Solid if you aren't poor.

Aside from paying the couple bucks, why wouldn't solid eventually become like ES and sellout for ads and/or invade muh privacies? Or are they just a trustworthy company?
>>
>>57038808
Because they don't need ads to make money?

>>57035623
Get ES pro
Best one there is

patch manually with lucky patcher and it should work

Amaze crashes everytime I try to delete something.

because I'm not an edgy 13 year old?
because I have morals
because if everyone did that, they would switch to having intrusive ads and privacy invading features? and because doing something that wouldn't work if everyone did it makes you an asshole?

Not that guy, but consumerism is that deeply ingrained into your culture, huh?

Just torrent your application from a source you trust - just like the majority of Eastern Europe, Russia, and the rest of the world does. You don't have to be an "edgy fuck" to do it.

Asus Zen UI File Manager knocks pretty much most file managers right out of the ball park

gotta love it. I haven't re-installed nor looked back on Solid Explorer after I installed and used Asus File Manager
>>
>>57035623
FX

>>57035623
ES file Explorer without permission to use networks. It's still the best file manager. You can downgrade to previous versions if you don't like the new features.

You do realize the APK can be decompiled, introduce arbitrary code and then re-signed.

I am new to android and this was great for me. But there is something I don't get. I cant browse contents of my sdcard on amaze. It just doesn't show anywhere. Is this is a limitation of android or should I seek for another program?

Browse to 0/0/ExtSdCard or whatever.
Just "SdCard" seems to be internal storage.

What proof is there that they have a high average IQ? Sure you have the outliers who do all their science and engineering but the average is probably around India-tier. Mind you, the average American or European IQ is probably not too high these days anyway.

education != IQ, although it does increase it. Whites in general have average higher IQs than other races, besides east Asian
>>
>>57050466

An IQ is static, it can never change. Just learning more doesn't actually alter the fact that IQ is a measurement of how quickly you learn new things - you can't learn any faster than you can actually learn hence, it's an unchanging thing.

People with low IQs cannot learn new things readily and easily (hence they end up with boring routine jobs that don't require much actual thought involved, same shit every fucking day type stuff) whereas people with high IQs learn new things very fast and easy (hence they being in situations that require rapid adjustments to new information, technology, moment by moment stuff).

Also, IQ has nothing to do with how "smart" you are - why? Because their are some extremely intelligent folk in this world that do nothing but stupid fucking shit 24/7. The two things are not related at all - you can have a really high IQ (mine was last measured at 148 years ago and since it hasn't changed in my lifetime as measured when I was 7 it was 148) and do incredibly fucking stupid things.

LEARN THE DIFFERENCE STUPID

>stupid fucking people will be the death of us all
>>
>>57050028

It's loaded with bloatware and spyware, this is a well known fact and has been for some time now, Baidu-related BS or something similar.
>>
>>57050632
an IQ is not static do some research. You can't jump 20 points, but you can improve it by practicing learning new things. Your ability to learn new things increases the more you do it.

>IQ != smartness
read The Bell Curve. IQ is THE BEST predictor of how well someone will do in life

This.
>>
>>57052973
Enlighten me how a new android user is supposed to distinguish crapware from the good stuff on the Play store without investing a significant amount of time into research? There's nothing that separates datamining apps from legit apps.

Under the iOS app store, you can generally pick out the crap by taking a look at the screenshots on the listing. Skeevy crap tends to have crap UIs. This doesn't hold true on the Play store at all; plenty of perfectly legitimate looking apps are highly invasive.
