  2. Support "ACTION_OPEN_DOCUMENT_TREE" to allow other apps to access remote directories through Solid Explorer

    Currently there is a lack of applications that both implement and use Android Lollipop's document tree API because of the lack of apps that support document trees. The only way to fix this problem is by fixing the current lack of document trees in cloud service provider apps and file managers.

    Document trees allow a user to give an app access to a folder through the DocumentProvider APIs. The app can take ownership of the folder and do operations (create files and directories, read and write files, list files in directories). The operations are handled by the target app; for…

  5. Extract and a compression location choice

    Please add an option to select exact location for extracting or compressing a archive like .zip or .rar.

    Additionally, please check for existing archives having a password or not. If a password is there, please prompt the user with proper messaging and notifications so they can correct their action with a proper password to extract. Without specific messaging, you forget sometimes am archive had a password and think that it's a corrupt file, rather than simply needing a correct password.

    Thanks for this awesome app!

  6. Customizable app shortcuts

    The new app shortcuts are really great, but with such an complex app it would be nice if they would be customizable:

    1. Wouldn't it be nice to have an option to switch between Storage, Bookmarks and Collections for the shortcuts? (if possible)

    2. Wouldn't it be nice to have an option to show the first 4 or 5 items with the given order instead of dynamically? (if possible)

    3. Wouldn't it be nice to be able to manually set the shortcuts, mixed from Storage, Bookmarks and Collections? (if possible)

  7. the ability to rename with different names each storage

    Because I have connected 3 external storages, it would be useful, to have the ability to rename with different names each storage, instead of SDCARD, onn the sside menu

  8. A few "Unable to delete the file" errors blocks massive move operation

    While attempting to move thousands of files from internal storage to an SD card, Solid Explorer halts and gives up when it encounters files that cannot be deleted from internal storage after they're copied over. SE cancels the entire move and posts an error. It would be far better If SE could offer to continue when a delete fails. Copying 100% of the files to the e SD card with an estimated 2% not deleted from internal storage is much better than just giving up.

  11. Removable links in the menu tab on the left.

    Is it possible to make unreachable network-shares and other folders removable in the storage tab on the left side? I.e. via long press --> context menu --> 'remove' or a wipe gesture?
    Thanks Krzysztof!

  12. add address bar

    In SMB or FTP add an address bar instead of a button. There seems to be no way of accessing hidden or administrative shares known by UNC path name via the current GUI, only visible shared folders.

  13. in-app feedback

    I found it a little tricky to find the way to provide feedback for solid explorer (although you do seem to have a fully-featured system set up here) and I was thinking it would be nicer if there was just a feedback button in the menu (not behind any sub-menus) that you could use without leaving the app.

  14. To make it even more attractive (fixes and suggestions)

    It would be just perfect if you consider suggestions
    0) To fix slight BUG: when you tap on folder and then rapidly try to paste some files from buffer, the folder loads smoothly ( which is good, but) with a slisght delay and this paste goes to previous visited folder
    1) to make slide of side panel more smooth
    2) To show folder info in compact mode also
    3) to make more precise control of icon scaling in the interface. I like compact mode, but can't adjust desirable icon size for now.
    4) To make drag&drop mechanics faster, because its…

  15. save as filename

    Allow user to specify filename for saved block of text, or at least have the default filename truncate at the first newline in the text instead of being so very, very long.

  16. Colaborate with Sam Hewitt to improve the paper icons

    Hi friends why do you not talk with Sam Hewitt to use his paper icons in Solid explorer as a replacement of the actual paper icons or to rework them in colaboration with him? If you rework the paper icons they could be the Sam's icons but in blue

  18. Resume smb stream

    Before when I used to use ES File Explorer and MX Player, playing smb streams that I've played before, MX Player would ask me if I want to resume where I left off.
    Since the move to Solid Explorer, MX Player doesn't ask me this anymore.

    I'm guessing each new stream process is seen as a different "location" from MX Player, so MX Player doesn't know it's the same file that was previously played.

  20. Show Used/Free for Network Attached Storage

    In previous versions SE shows the space used on SMB/NFS shares. It had some bugs, didn't always refresh and sometimes incorrect values.

    It has now been replaced with the currently logged in username for that network.

    Can this be returned and improved?
