Total Commander. It's a dual-pane file manager. Those who've used it on Windows (first as "Windows Commander" and later "Total Commander") since 1993 will feel at home.
It has optional free plugins for Dropbox, Google Drive, OneDrive, FTP, SFTP, FTPS, WebDAV, SMB (Windows shared folders), direct wifi transfer, and more.
It can take advantage of root too, if your phone is rooted, so you can browse and edit system files, if you want to.
Total commander is a free file manager, and it is AMAZING. It has many useful plugins, supports root, and just generally very solid app. I used it since the day one on Android
Mind you, One UI is for Samsung phones only and can be notably different than stock android or older versions or different "Files" apps.
For example, I'm on a Sony phone running Android 9 and the "Files" app there doesn't have anything of the sort.
However, the free TotalCommander app I have does have this option to add a link to a file on your home screen. (Press-hold on a file, then there's a "Create link on desktop" menu pick.)
So people's mileage may vary greatly.
Try opening it from a different program. PBW files don't open for me from Chrome, but a file manager like Total Commander works.
I like Total Commander, but I'm accustomed to using twin pane file managers on computers. There is a chance others might find it a little awkward.

This is a side note to the topic at hand, but I really don't recommend using ES File Explorer; they've recently added a bunch of bloatware and pop-up ads.
Instead, try Total Commander, which allows for much the same thing without the BS.
Ever since ridding myself of ES I moved on to Total Commander it's free, there are no ads, and no BS. You'll have to sideload it using the Google Play Store on your phone to install it on your ATV but it's android TV compatible :) if you want more features there are first and third party plug ins you could use. I've been using this file manager for awhile and haven't looked back :)

I use Total Commander. It is not pretty but is does everything one would need for free. Quick actions can be a little annoying creating your own. I keep trying others and keep coming back to this as "it just werks". When moving/copying files you can continue the operation in the background by just doing something else. It will set the file operation in a notification.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ghisler.android.TotalCommander
One more thing, if you having difficulty finding the folder with the . in front of the name, you can use Total Commander which by default shows folders that are named like that.
For a file managment, consider Total Commander, I've been using it for years. It's a dual window style manager with many features. There are also plugins for Google Drive, FTP, SMB, OneDrive...etc. Colours are customizable (must for AMOLED screens). And there's a Windows version.
This is automatically detected, and sometimes can be shown mistakenly. See Total Commander.
>Important note: This app does NOT contain any ads. However, it contains a link "Add plugins (download)" in the home folder. This is treated as an ad by the Play Store because it links to our other apps (plugins).
This app may have something similar. Or just the mechanisms it uses to detect or block the ads trigger the warning. Unless it really does show you ads. Then I must agree it is asshole design.
There was also this browser, Brave, that claimed it would show their own ads on websites instead of the ones put there by the owners of the websites, and share the money they get from you seeing the ads with you. I’m not sure how much did it make or if it ever worked at all though, I’ve only read about it.
Sparsely) Perhaps all the popular file managers want to somehow get your money for their functions. Of the most popular and completely free, IMHO - only Total Commander
Although, for sure, there are still worthy ones; let's see what people will offer)
Total Commander - free, no BS or ads, and full lean back support (although you still have to side load it from your phone or pc using Google Play - sign in to Google Play on your PC or Phone, click install, then select a device to install it to; your android tv device, and then click install again) really wish Google would add this to the Android TV Play Store after all it does have lean back support and appears right on the home screen after install :/
Blast from the past. Total Commander does all of these things, is small and has great plugins.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ghisler.android.TotalCommander
SMB via the LAN plugin.
Get a file manager app (I recommend Total Commander) and navigate to /games/com.mojang/minecraftWorlds/ on your internal storage / SD card to see your worlds and copy them elsewhere presumably (TC has a Google Drive plugin which works well for backing stuff up).
Total Commander I imagine - I haven't used it myself.
Solid Explorer does everything I can think of needing out of a file manager, all while being hella pretty.
There may be other ways but I use total commander as my file manager. You can also see all installed apk's in it. That's what I used to pull off the fonts I had installed on my V20. Then I sideloaded the apk on my V60 with TC again.

a file manager.
I use total commander.
You can get it from Google play if you prefer!
and ugly is a question of taste! For me it works great and dose the job!
Total Commander has always been top notch, on Windows and Android.
​
Lots of useful plugins also, including wifi transfer to other devices.
At least on my Samsung phone, the default file browser won't let you open it. I'd recommend downloading the Total Commander file manager, here https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ghisler.android.TotalCommander . Once that is installed, navigate to the pbw. My downloads folder is at /sdcard/Downloads. Hold on the APK and click "Open with". Next, select the Pebble app. It'll navigate to the Pebble app and prompt you for permission. Click next and it'll install
I couldn't get it to work for the longest time, but I tried Total Commander and it worked right away. Very odd that Solid Explorer wouldn't work. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ghisler.android.TotalCommander&hl=en
Download Total Commander & then access your sdcard after you follow the quick directions it will popup giving the OS access to the cards /
After that, download its LAN Plugin add-on for easily transferring media & sideloading APK's.
Total Commander & its LAN Plugin are what you want. Totally free & makes transferring Media & APK files remotely a breeze!
Yes you can, micro USB to fill sized USB cable in combination with Total Commander and it's USB Plugin
I use Total Commander. It's free. I've tried quite a few file managers and I find that I like TC the most. It has plugins (also free) to access google drive, MS one drive, Drop Box, FTP/SFTP, WebDAV and Wifi.
>I know on PC I can copy/paste the entire userdata folders, but that's kind of a pain to do on Android OS
I've found it pretty easy on Android actually. I like to use Total Commander for Android, it's a great file manager on any platform.
According to the Kodi Wiki the Userdata folder on Android is located at /data/org.xbmc.kodi/files/.kodi/userdata/
^(Note: In some Android setups the path may be slightly different to the one stated above.)
You could try Total Commander it looks a bit dated by today's standards, but what it lacks in the UI department it makes up for in its many features.
- My favorite android file manager is Total Commander. It is an excellent free file manager.
It has several plugins to access various services, including a WebDAV plugin
I tried different file managers my Oppos, and found out, that Total Commander works perfect in my use case.
I can grant this app access to all folder under /storage/emulated/0/Android/data/ and access my backups.

SMB also uses port 139 so have a go on that one too.
Otherwise I'd try Total Commander for Android: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ghisler.android.TotalCommander
Ensure you get the SMB "LAN" plug-in too: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ghisler.tcplugins.LAN
I downloaded a different file explorer app and was actually able to replicate your issue. Try using the Total Commander app instead, it seems to work for me
Personally I use Total Commander with its WiFi plugin, since I generally tend to only send one or two files at a time, and do so from the same network my PC is on.
I use Total Commander for stuff like this, but it is designed for dinosaurs like me who preferred DOS based file managers in the 90s, so your preferences might be different.
Just zip up the directory, move it in a practical way (usb storage, mail, cloud or FTP typically), and unzip in the right place on the new phone after having the app build its directories.
If the microSD card is read-only then it is either dying or the filesystem on the card is partially corrupt. If the phone hasn't had any power cuts, like yanking the battery out while still on, then the card is dying. Sudden power cuts can currupt data on an SD card, but the card will be fine after fixing (or formatting) the filesystem on the card.
Regarding the side note: the Samsung Files app can't look into /storage/emulated/0/Android/data, but other file managers can. If you need a recommendation for one, I use Total Commander.
Dual panel is a great feature. I 'm using total commander, which looks like ghost commander, but is only available on play store .... https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ghisler.android.TotalCommander
APK is a file that you can install. Once installed, you can uninstall the installed app (using the built-in app-info screen, or an app like this one), but the APK will remain. You can remove it using a file manager app, such as Total Commander.
I used Total Commander, since it's the file manager that I use normally.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ghisler.android.TotalCommander
There are other ways to back up your installed apks, but this didn't require me to install anything extra.
Total Commander has the option on its home screen to browse installed apps. Scroll down until you find the Poweramp unlocker, select it and copy it to another folder. Transfer that to your other device along with the Poweramp installer. Install Poweramp, then the unlocker. Works great for me on my M7, even without any google services.
That depends on what you are trying to do with the "hard drive"? Total Commander in conjunction with activating "your phone" on the computer and device may fit the bill and it's free. I've been using this since I got rid of my Blackberry 9900. If all you are wanting to do is transfer files, dropbox and sync will do this easily, if a bit roundabout.
Edit: clarity
Although the game adjusts the graphics, you can change them manually: 1- Download an app like Total Commander 2- Search for the folder '/UE4GAME/LiS/LiS/Saved/Config/Android' and edit the file Engine.ini 3- Write: [SystemSettings] r.MobileContentScaleFactor=1.0 r.ViewDistanceScale=1.0
The first line is for resolution and quality.
4- Save the file and start the game
If it lags, you can try changing the first number(between 0.1 and 1.0) and the view distance as well.
Hope it works!! :)

Ok, after reading a bit on this, yes, pixel will unfortunately format the drive in FAT32 (I say unfortunately because FAT32 doesn't support files bigger than 4 GB) if you're fine with that everything should be ok, and also windows won't prompt you to format the drive back to exFAT as the commenter above said, you can just plug it in and it will work on a PC normally regardless of the file system format.
Also if FAT32 is a problem for you as you need to use files bigger than 4 GB don't worry there's a workaround for pixel to work with exFAT and even NTFS, both not having that 4gb file size limitation.
You need 2 apps one is total commander file manager https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ghisler.android.TotalCommander this one is free and will be used to browse the contents of the drive.
The second and last app is exFAT/NTFS by paragon software https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.paragon.tcplugins_ntfs_ro
While the app itself it's free, the module for mounting exFAT or NTFS it's not, the one for exFAT costs 5 or 6 euros if I remember correctly.
And after all of this I can guarantee it works, I just tested it myself on my pixel using the trial mode of the app (you get 2 days), you can try it yourself. You can play movies directly from the drive with VLC I also tried mx player but that one didn't work.
I use Total Commander - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ghisler.android.TotalCommander
You can use a file manager app such as Total Commander to search for all APK files (search for "*.apk").
You can also use this app which lists all (standalone) APK files for you.
The bug report is a ZIP file so if you don't want to download any other apps you can just email it to yourself but you should download total commander which will locally save it on your device
Also here are some useful apps: total commander (file manager + text editor) & JSON genie (a JSON editor)
I used Total Commander. No root needed. Just had to figure out manually where the sound file might be.
For some reason I still prefer Total Commander over the others:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ghisler.android.TotalCommander&hl=en
There is no "/downloads" or "/download". You mean on the external storage partition, probably, but then it means you should see both of those folders, even via PC.
Anyway, try this app:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ghisler.android.TotalCommander&hl=en
You could download https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ghisler.android.TotalCommander and open storage folder>click top right magnifying glass>type .jpg and it'll find any jogs on the storage.
Total Commander is the best file explorer and has declared it has "ads" because it links to its own plugins. So nothing new here with FX file explorer. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ghisler.android.TotalCommander&hl=en
Here is what I use:
- Total Commander - file manager, to reach all files everywhere
- Developers apps: Material terminal, Logcat Extreme, Wifi ADB, Preferences manager, SQLite Reader, SQLite Debugger, SQlite Editor
- Titanium Backup
- I used to use Recovery Reboot, but for some reason I can't let my TWRP stay being flashed.
- App Ops
- My apps: App Manager and Contacts Sync.
Total commander this one should work without trouble if it doesn't ask for root access when you try to access root folder check in the settings if you need to turn it on there.
I found a solution with Total Commander and the USB Stick Plugin.
It's a pretty silly user interface and the USB plugin costs a buck but it works.
Let me know how it goes. :)
What you need is an otg cable, total commander app, and Microsoft exfat ntfs USB by paragon app.

Total Commander, its extremely powerful, has plugin support. I use it on windows too and it puts windows explorer to shame. Its pretty damn amazing https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ghisler.android.TotalCommander&hl=en
No prob! Was worried that I might have been a bit harsh.
To add onto the excellent answer by /u/logikgear (as I have no experience with SyncThing or OwnCloud) - I wouldn't recommend ES File Explorer Pro on Android anymore. Dev was up to some shady shit at some point, and I'm a one strike kind of person with that kind of thing. Point in case, one of Netgear's apps suddenly requested root (Superuser) permission on my Android phone - my next logical course of action was to install third party firmware on all of the Netgear equipment I had in the apartment.
"Total Commander" is free, and has official plug-in support for everything under the sun, including SMBv2 (Windows network shares), OneDrive, Google Drive, you name it. It's a bare-bones file explorer that's really most useful for rooted users, but you can use it to browse network shares, SFTP, cloud services, etc. and handle copy/move operations between them and your local phone storage.
My backup solution for my phone is...abnormal and excessive. It's got USB3 and I have TWRP, so every few weeks I run a nandroid backup to an SSD. I delete the oldest one when I'm out of space.
You might be using ES File Explorer but you should be using Total Commander or if you really want to splash out you can pay for MIXplorer Silver.
Total Commander for moving files across home networks is great.
Total Commander via it's media player has support for equalizer which includes a loudness booster option.
Total Commander SMBv2 support, no ads, requires plugins, busy and unintuitive interface
Don't know whether it's open-source.
Are you sure that SMB is the issue? I streamed LAN video just fine over SMBv1 and SMBv2 using MiXplorer.
Total Commander provides free SMBv2 support. Try streaming with that file manager (with free LAN plugin) before pursuing an SMBv3 solution.
Even Total Commander and Gost Commander have 2 panels.
I'm not really sure what you are asking here: I use Total Commander. It asks for permission the first time you try to write to the SD card and then has permenent access to manage the card.
So I got myself an OTG cable. I managed to do MIDI out from the OP-1 with an app I didn't know. There was some lag. Anyone uses something special to play MIDI instruments or the other way around to control the OP-1 synths?
About file access, I manage to make it work with two apps:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ghisler.android.TotalCommander https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.hechler.tcplugins.full.usb&rdid=de.hechler.tcplugins.full.usb
I was wonder which app you used since FAT-16 is often not supported by default.
For file explorer I'd recommend https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ghisler.android.TotalCommander
It will automatically take root and lets you browse all folders you want. Also fast to start and has direct links to the important folders directly at the start page.
I use ES File Explorer Pro. If you don't want to pay for the pro version, don't get the ES free file explorer. If you want something free that works well, try Total Commander (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ghisler.android.TotalCommander)
Total Commander File Manager: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ghisler.android.TotalCommander&hl=en
Paragon ExFAT NTFS USB Android Plug-in: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.paragon.tcplugins_ntfs_ro&hl=en
You need root to remove system apps regardless of which file manager or system app remover you use. I only removed the phone/sms apps as there is no sim card in the phone and thus redundant for now.
File manager: Total Commander. Ugly as fuck, but you won't find a more functionally complete file manager anywhere. Especially if you install some plugins.
Personally i use Total Commander
With a add-on for ftp FTP Plugin for Total Commander
Works great for me.
Delete Es File Explorer, it's a notification from that. They supposedly spy on the devices it's installed on.
Then go get yourself Total Commander (Yes, it's AndroidTV compatible) & its LAN plugin for easy APK & Media sideload transfers.
Don't worry, you can easily move the files over to the SD card manually with a file explorer app such as Total Commander.
By PC I assume you mean windows, so here's what I use. If you're familiar with how to share files from Windows, this is a pretty easy and free way to do it.
1) Download TotalCommander and the LAN Plugin to your phone.
2) Share a folder on your PC to have homegroup reader or writer permissions.
2.b) It's helpful if you assign a static IP to your PC so that for the next step you just need to set up the connection profile once, otherwise the next time your PC starts up it'll have a different IP. (Now that I think about it though, you might be able to use the domain name for your PC which will avoid all this IP business)
3) In TotalCommander, click on "LAN (Windows Shares)" and add a profile for your PC.
4) Connect to your PC and access your shared folder. Select the files/folders you want and click the copy button at the bottom to transfer to or from your phone.
I use Total Commander now and to be honest, I love it more than I ever did ES
I use total commander, it is great.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ghisler.android.TotalCommander
Total Commander. Do it.
Edit: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ghisler.android.TotalCommander
I'm currently using MiXplorer and am quite happy with it. The only problem with it is that you have to download the .apk from XDA and install it manually (also no automatic updates).
Before that I was using Total Commander and FX.
I find this one of the best
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ghisler.android.TotalCommander

- Ghost Commander https://f-droid.org/de/packages/com.ghostsq.commander/
Agreed.. use Total Commander.
Use Total Commander.
Have you tried TotalCommandee with its different plugins?
Fantastic software by Christian Ghisler.
http://www.ghisler.com/android.htm
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ghisler.android.TotalCommander
Thirdparty NTFS plugin:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.paragon.tcplugins_ntfs_ro
In that case, you could create the folder using Total Commander instead of connecting it to a desktop.
You can also..
Download the Amazon Video APK version 3.11.44. Don't download version 4.x. It will crash on most shows and also the game controller isn't supported.
Upload the apk to Google Drive.
Install Total Commander on your Shield
Install the Drive plugin for Total Commander on your Shield.
Open Total Commander, click on Google Drive, navigate to your Google Drive and click on the APK to install. Make sure you allow apks from unknown sources in Security & Restrictions > Unknown Sources
Network it via Total Commander & its LAN plugin or directly via Bluetooth, if your PC has it? If not a 4.0 Dongle is super cheap.
I really enjoy Total Commander. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ghisler.android.TotalCommander
I'd suggest Total Commander.
And it's completely free.
Try this...
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ghisler.android.TotalCommander
It's a file manager, a classic one, without ads, howerver Google says otherwise.
If you just have a few pics that you want to share occasionally, some file managers have the ability to share files.
With its various plugins, Total Commander file manager can share files using several methods.
WiFi/WLAN Plugin for Total Commander
LAN plugin for Total Commander
FTP Plugin for Total Commander
If you have whole folders with tons of pictures that you want to share very often, you can use something like Syncthing or SMBSync2 or FolderSync Pro
I use Total Commander
I don't know if it looks like ES File Explorer, but my favorite file manager is Total Commander
Here is a link for Total Commander. This is the best file manager that I have found for android. I've been using it for over 5 years and I love it. It's been extremely reliable.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ghisler.android.TotalCommander
Here is an extra plugin for Total Commander that allows WiFi Transfer.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ghisler.tcplugins.wifitransfer
You should install both.
The way it works is that you can use Total Commander to navigate to any folder on your phone and access any document you want (like every other file manager).
If you select a document or folder within Total Commander, you have the option to "Send Via WiFi". It will open a server and then it will give you a temporary IP address that you can type in on your computer/laptop and then you'll be able to see the file on your computer. You'll be able to click the file name and the file will then download quickly to your computer/laptop.
The server also gives you a QR code that you can just scan on the receiving device if it's another phone (because phones can read QR codes and send you to the specific IP address on the QR code). This is how you can easily transfer large between android devices or between android/iOS (as long as all devices are connected to the same WiFi network).
When your transfer is done, you should tap on "Stop Server" to end the connection.
To send a file from your computer/laptop to your phone, you will need to select a folder on your phone and share that folder via WiFi. (I like to create a separate new folder for file transfers so that I'm not giving the other device full access to all of my documents).
Then when you open the folder on your computer/laptop, you will have an option to select a document from your computer/laptop and upload it to the folder. Then that document will show up on your phone.
The tricky part is getting used to Total Commander's interface, because it's very plain looking. Once you get used to it, it's amazing.
These steps will make much more sense once you familiarize yourself with the Total Commander app and how everything looks.
Total Commander is my favorite file manager.
WiFi direct between two Android devices, AND Total Commander https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ghisler.android.TotalCommander
It does not have a material theme, but my absolute favorite file manager is Total Commander
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ghisler.android.TotalCommander

Like the embedded player that comes with Total Commander also very easy to create a queue list for mp3/flac files.

I prefer using a 3d party file manager (like TotalCommander) to tell Android fuck themselves.
Try Total Commander
total commander has pretty much every feature you'd expect a desktop file explorer to have
Since you're on Android, I'll provide Android instructions.
To redownload apps, you can follow Google's guide right here (do note that in the latest Play Store update, the menu has moved to the profile picture in the top right)
To sideload... you just need to find your desired APK files and install them. You may need to grant some permission to install at first, but after that it's a fairly smooth process.
For finding general apps, I highly recommend APKMirror and APKPure. For Angry Birds specifically, there's a sticky/announcement post on this sub with a Drive link.
APK derivates (XAPK, APKM, APKS) may need another installer app. I personally use Total Commander for XAPK (and as a file manager in general) but there's tens of other installer apps out there as well, such as APKMirror's Installer. If you're stuck somewhere, let me know and I'll get back to you ^^
One last thing, please be careful when installing apps from sources that you may not trust!
Only Total Commander as far as i can tell. FX is my preferred but to get to those folders i gotta use TC
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ghisler.android.TotalCommander
I use Total Commander , I connect via SMB plugin however it has many more that you can add.
Indeed. I even wrote about this (and other issues of it) here:
https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/163065203
As for "obb", that's incorrect. Once you grant the app install-permission, it can reach it fine. You can see it for yourself. Try these:
- Use Total Commander (or any other file manager app), and try to install any APK file. Then try to reach this path.
- Use App Manager, and then via some file manager app, try to open some XAPK app (that include OBB files sometimes) from APKPure website, and choose to open via this app. It will ask for this permission, and indeed if there are OBB files, it will succeed copying them to the correct path.
No. I wish it was once, like in the past that you've enabled a toggle to let apps install APK files and that's it. It's much more than once. It's this way for each app that you ever try to install from:
- Every app-store replacement (F-Droid, Aurora Store,...)
- Every file manager app (Total Commander,...)
- Every web browser app (Chrome stable/beta/dev/canary, Firefox, Kiwi...)
- Every cloud-saving app (Drive,...)
- Every app outside the Play Store that offers to update itself and/or others (APKUpdater, NewPipe, Ymusic...)
- Every APK installer (App-manager, SAI, APK-mirror, ,...)
- Every backup app (Swift backup, Titanium...)...
- Every chatting app that allows to install APK files directly through them ( Telegram, Slack...)
And of course, if you develop one type of those apps, you will constantly have to see this annoyance (when installing an APK through it) each time you install&run the app from scratch.
I also hope this permission is saved upon restoration, because then it would be annoying to do it when switching to a new device or having a factory reset.
Worth the $ if you can afford the $.
Very excellent free Android version though.
I suggest using total commander it comes with a text editor.
Try total commander it's good for bp edits
For some reason I always come back to use Total Commander
>u/ingeniousrabbit - ...am trying to create a file shortcut on my homescreen. Iam using a oneplus3T. So far i installed a few third party apps but even though there are features called "create shortcut" the file wont appear on my home screen...
Which "third party apps" did you try exactly?
Use a third-party file explorer that can create desktop shortcut.
All those work o my Galaxy S5 G900M LineageOS 16.0 klte build 2020-02-23: MiXplorer, Simple File Managerm Amaze, Total Commander, etc.
Sadly that feature is missing in the stock LineageOS Files explorer.

Technically the best file manager for Android is Total Commander, you will need a separate (free) plugin for FTP access.
Now since It's ugly as hell and most people want modern looking apps I usually recommend Fx File Explorer since I find it better than Solid Explorer.
I started using Total Commander on my HTC Desire. Still using the app on my current phone today.

Been using these on multiple devices for years, they all get the job done quite well & the 1st 2 are FREE.
[1] Total Commander & its LAN plugin
[2] Explorer
[3] Root Explorer
Faster, ad-free alternative: Total Commander, plus network plugins (as necessary, such as WiFi/WLAN or LAN plugin)
Also, check for driver issues which may prevent MTP devices from appearing.

That's my favorite.
Heh, I just updated my post about this problem and possible solutions. I might just make a new post about this but for redundancy...
You'll need a file manager (I use "Total Commander").
- In the game's photo album, open the picture you want to share. It's important you open the picture, rather than just selecting the photo in the album, because this makes sure the picture is saved to the phone's storage.
- Press the 'share' button. The game should freeze, but that's okay. You can either close the game entirely or just have it running the background.
- Switch to the file manager app of your choice.
- Navigate to /storage/emulated/0/Android/data/jp.co.hit_point.tabikaeru/files
- You should see a png file named tabikaeru.png
- Copy or move that file to another directory of your choice. (I just put in the default download folder /storage/emulated/0/download for easy access)
That's it. The reason you need to copy or move it is due the fact that file disappears once you reload the game. I might try automating this process using tasker, but it would be hard since the frog randomly decides to take trip thus you wouldn't know when the prompt to view/save a photo would appear.
Manually backing up your game progress on Android
I found out that if you want to make a backup of your game manually, just copy of the entirety of the /storage/emulated/0/Android/data/jp.co.hit_point.tabikaeru/ directory. Restoring this folder after redownloading the app from the play store on another phone worked fine. You can probably ignore the ./cache directory but I haven't tested that.
I think total commander will let you modify the date and time of files.

Check out Total Commander & its LAN plugin, works great & both are FREE.
Root Explorer incorporates this feature as well, but is premium.
I've read its free edition, Explorer does as well, but can't speak on it personally being I've never used it.
Try Total Commander (its ad free) - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ghisler.android.TotalCommander&hl=en_GB
Switched to Total Commander (for Android) the minute ES File Explorer began with all the pop-up sh*t.
And total commander?
