Is it just me or is the Amaze missing a file manager? I know you can down load one from the market but was wondering if this was the norm for the Amaze?

Are you on the stock ROM? I haven't been on it for so long I can't remember. I thought it came with ES or Astro. Bloatware lol I prefer either Root Manager or Huawai File Manager with Cloud + (5GB)
Seriously? Root Explorer. File Explorer, Astor file manager, these are all available in the market. What's the issue?

Yea, stock roms do not come with file managers.

Yes, "Seriously", that is what the Q & A forum is for, have a question ask. As I stated in my original post " I know you can down load one from the market but was wondering if this was the norm for the Amaze?", but thanks for posting a response.

Thanks for responding, I was asking because my vibrant and Galaxy 10.1 both contained a file manager although a simple one.
My question has been answered thanks every one.

With other LW's, I did not install them, I just put them in system/app and went to change the WP and they were there....

Right on, glad it worked man.
So are you gonna share or what?
^ just download the rom and extract it, put the .apk file in system/app (no need to install it) and then go to your LW's, it should be there now.
Moving with root explorer did the trick, wicked wallpaper

any way to install this without root...?
My boss wanted me to upgrade his phone, so i did... he doesn't like the stock app that's being used in this build (xipher). Is there anything i can do to get him back to the stock one with the bubbles? Thanks in advance!
Yikes hopefully he or she doesn't fire you. Just kidding I believe you need to push the samsung messaging .apk with adb.
P. S. Be prepared to get attacked for posting in the wrong section
Opps... realized this is in the wrong spot. Can a mod please move it?
can you help me figure out how to do this? i downloaded all the stock apk files... is it mms.apk? how would i go about installing it? the phone has root, root explorer and astro.

With Root explorer you'd move the Samsung .apk into /system/app

Don't know. Hang on a minute, I'll check.
Don't know why but de-odexer failed to de-odex it. I'm running a de-odexed rom so I can't test it now.
Thanks narco, but it didn't install. I took the apk out of the rar file you posted and tried to install that. No joy.
I really thought this was the right forum. I saw someone get yelled at in the Dev forum for posting app requests.
Don't know anything about de-odex so can't say why your file didn't work. I really like the ROM I'm using except for a few little ommissions like this. I wouldn't mind the file manager from the stock rom either if you have it. I hate these ad-supported ones in the market. I know I should support the developers and buy something, but these are things we got for free with our phones. I just want some of that free goodness.
Thanks again.

No worries. Coincidentally, I happened to de-odex that file since my last post. So here is the de-odexed version that I have running perfectly on Froyo. And since you need it I'll attach a de-odexed copy of the file manager as well.
Thanks man

narco, what am I doing wrong? I downloaded the rar files you posted and extracted the apk file. I moved the apk files to my internal SD card, then used a version of "Root Explorer" to launch the installer on these files. I get a message that says they weren't installed. No other helpful information as to why.
Is there some other method of getting these files to install?

Yes there is.
First you need to install the SDK.
Then plug your phone into your computer, enable USB debugging, open a command prompt on your computer, navigate to the folder where your apk resides and enter the following commands:
Code:
C:\Phone Hacking\Vibrant>adb root
restarting adbd as root
C:\Phone Hacking\Vibrant>adb shell mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/st19 /system
C:\Phone Hacking\Vibrant>adb push VoiceRecorder.apk /system/app/
C:\Phone Hacking\Vibrant>adb reboot
Okay, I think I got it. I installed the sdk and tried the whole adb thing, but it said I couldn't go into adb root on production builds, then it occurred to me that all you were trying to do was move the apk file into the /system/app folder which can only be accessed by root.
I already had Root Explorer, which I used to move the apk file and it worked. Thanks for posting the files and your help. I've been wondering what I could do with ADB. I messed around with the usb drivers for a while but ended up getting adb to work via the wirelessadb app that was included in the Onyx rom.
Learning something new everyday.
Thanks again.

The reason you got an error about adb not switching to root mode is that you are running a production kernel. You might consider changing to a custom kernel. You can run a rooted kernel along with your current rom.
I would suggest one of Eugene's custom kernels. I currently run A4 but there is a new A5 out that I will switch to later tonight.
If you can't figure out how to install it send me another message. I'll be glad to help.
Edit: Just updated to A5. Runs Great! Super fast awesomeness!

Try this,from Bionix final.Copy to root and use root explorer to copy to system/app.
This is my first week with rooting/flashing. My primary reason for going this route has been to get some froyo goodness and extend my battery life. I have been reading that the stock kernel is the best way to get the most battery life. What do the custom kernels get you? I've stayed away from the lag fixes as well for the same reason.
Thanks for being so helpful.

I just started using Super Manager (from the market), and it gives the same capabilities for root access file management as Root Explorer.... for FREE. I figured that this information (even though it can be discovered searching the market) might be useful for someone. I have been using it for a day now, and it works great.
Below are other free root access apps as shared by the community in this thread:

I read on another thread that its a desire hd app and the original desire wont have the files necessary.
Install to system /app. Then change the permissions to match all other apks. Just long press on another application, go to permissions, then change the permissions of the reader to match. Reboot and you should be good to go.

This is how you have to do it.
Like stated, just move/copy the .apk to system/app and change permission to rw-r--r--
Probably not necessary but I like to wipe cache on reboot...
