I just came from cm9 to AOKP. Flashed it last night with no problem. Now I don't have file explorer on AOKP. anyone experienced it?
Just push it to your device and sideload it with adb-install or something.
With my touchpad, I always use ES File Explorer as my file explorer of choice. It's free on the play store and it works quite well. It can also be put in root explorer mode and comes with a text editor as well, which comes in handy for changing moboot stuff in the boot folder.

Though I could download and install Graffiti on my Gtab , I cannot select it as an input method. A message warns that personal data may be collected, and if I'm sure I want to use the input method. However, after tapping ok, Graffiti remains unchecked. Another similar app gave the same results. Google gesture search seems to work, so I'm hoping someone here might know how to fix this.
(using: TnT-Enhanced v3.1.4b)
Update Edit:
I am getting the same problem with the gingerbread keyboard.
Hello...
I had the same issue and gaspra over at this post gave me the answer... Hope this helps you out. BTW, there is a free version of Root Explorer in the market.

you will need a root explorer, it's on app market but not free.
From Root Explorer, open the /data/app/ folder and you will find the
keyboard you just installed. Then copy the apk file to /system/app, note
this is where you need the Root Explorer to change the permission for
/system folder from R/W to R/O (allowing permission to write in this folder
by user).
Do a restart once you finish copying the file. The new input method
should be enabled by default then.
Alternatively you can use "adb" tool from Android SDK to transfer the
apk file if you don't have a copy of Root Explorer.
I was able to root my phone with the program above and i can see an icon of Super User in my screen but even like this i cant change the bootanimation of the device.
When i open the media folder where is the original bootanimatio the permission is only READ.
what file manager are you using?
you can use es fileexplorer from the market(free) than enable R/W so you can replace your bootanimation
Im using File Manager from Rythm.
Using a different File manager would change that? Strange but i will try
Problem solved with ES Explorer.
You can put the boot animation in /data/local anyway, so you don't remove your 'built in' one.
HI, I downloaded the Go Keyboard through the android market because it has spell check and looks better than the default keyboard. I know with Color tools the keyboard has to be in the sys folder. My question is where does the market download to by default? I can see the keyboard in the program list but am unable to find it using astrofile manager. Thanks for any help.
edit: Found out that Astro file manager is unable to work with root folders so I'm going to need a diff root explorer.
You can use Root Explorer from market
Thanks I used ES file explorer. It's free
Does anyone know what file manager comes with Verizon's version of the Droid 3? I'd like to use it on my Kindle Fire as it's got a nice clean interface and works just the way I expect it too, so no relearning anything.
I tried backing up the apk and moving it to my Fire, but it won't install. I'm assuming some graphical resources are missing or something like that, though I don't really know. I was hoping if I could identify it I could find a stand alone apk to install.
All I know about the program is that it's 92K on the phone, and is called simple "Files."
Thanks
Files comes as a system app on our Droid 3s. This is probably why it won't install on your Fire or like you said because of graphical..etc.
If you have your device rooted, you could try to place the FileManager.apk in the system\app folder and set the permissions to Owner: Read/Write, Group: Read, and Others: Read. (You can do this using ADB as well) and reboot. This should install the app.
However I would suggest just trying ES File Explorer instead, it should be compatible with your kindle. Good luck
Yes, I've got Es File Explorer and Astro File Manager installed, and while they work fine, I like Files' simplicity and look and feel.
It was worth a shot.
Thanks
I was looking at build.prop on my phone (ironkrnl + temasek's kang) at one point it says
ro.build.fingerprint=lge/lge_star/p990_EUR-xx:2.3.4/GRJ22/lgp990-V20l.422C563E:user/release-keys
is the lgp a typo?
Also I was using ES file explorer and copied the build.prop file to make a back up, then I made a small change in the original. When I looked at the copied file it had changed also. I've never seen that on computers, as if the files where linked. Is this something to do with linux or ES file explorer or something else? I suppose I should use the command line to copy files.
hm while I tryed it again and didn't reproduce that error so maybe I just repasted the first file.
