Is there anything like a file manager to have better controll where files are located. Anyway to pen the folders provided by the SamsngATIV-S
At this time no.
There is none which doesn't make sense to me because I can plug in my Lumina 822 to my PC and see my files that way. :silly:

Actually thats what i was trying to say LOL. In other words you can do it by pluging your phone up to the PC, why not give us the opption to do so on the phone it's self.

WP8 does not allow any OS file access at all.
WP8 + Surface Pro = File explorer anywhere. Seems legit.

I accessed the mtp file structure with total commander. I wondered on it. Is it something new?
Whoa! That's definitely *different*. What phone are you using?
I'd been considering finding (or writing) an alternate MTP client so that I could take advantage of the Full File System hack on ATIV phones and dump the running file system (Windows Explorer is a miserable MTP client). Looks like TC would probably do the job. However, looks like it also reveals even more than we knew was there...
I'll investigate (once I have a data cable and not just this silly charge cable) and see what I can find.
nothing new but available few months in beta releases (8.50)... just start TC, select Computer (drive overview) and WP8 phone is there
latest 8.50 version stable version
http://www.ghisler.com/amazons3.php
or beta 8.51 beta 4
http://www.ghisler.com/851_b4.php
The fact that the phone is there is not the exciting bit (although I didn't know TC supported MTP, so that's cool). The exciting bit is the presence of all those other "folders", like "Apps", "Metadata", "StorageInfo", etc.
I tried 8.51b4. Didn't get anything out of the norm.

what is your software version ?
Mine is 8.50
O sorry .
your Version is 8.01 . now see it
Last Edit : with 8.01 and that plugin :
still normal access on Lumia 920
I did it again by the same way.
History:
1. Installed TC a long time ago, (and it may be importent, set to always run with administrator rights)
2. bought l520
3. devunlocked l520, did preview for developers, installed gdr3, installed black
4. installed windows media audio extension
5. opened the phone, and amazed on the folders

Wow ! Take a look
Run as Administrator . Install Media Audio plugin that he mentioned
Go To Network neighborhood then Media Audio
You see your WP Device and in this partition you can see these folders .
but Unfortunately All of these folders are empty !
I'll try it with the Odyssey tomorrow. I wonder if having the Full FS made any changes to permissions to MTP on the device to actually be able to see something inside.

The most bad thing is that we can't write files in these folders .
not only these folders even in Phone folder !
we have write permission when navigate from This PC but we can't write when we navigate from this method
It's seems not very useful but still interesting .
we have to test another MTP device . maybe this plugin shows these folders for every MTP devices !
I ran across the source code, but I haven't found any information about those folders. Altough it is possible that the starnge folders are from an API.
I am trying to find other mtp clients, but tcmd and windwos explorer might be the only ones.

Can you modify/read system files?
I don't think it is avaliable, so please upload a file system tree except for your personal files
With 8.1 a new folder is avaliable via MediaAudio2 called: Media Library Service

Hi,
Does anyone know if it is possible to view the file system of a Windows Phone 8.1 device? I have a phone that is developer unlocked and would like to the file structure of the device or access files that are hidden away from the user. I can see the downloads, music, photos etc using the new Nokia/Microsoft Files app, but can not get into something like the windows phone equivelent to C:\Users\xxx\AppData.
I came across this post on the forums which is an xap file for allowing browsing over a network (converts phone to a webserver) but could not deploy to Win Phone 8.1 using the deployment tools due to the file having a missing manifest - I suspect it works for Win Phone 8 rather than 8.1.
Are there any native tools in the Visual Studio environment to browse the device on a dev unlocked device?
Many thanks,
Simon

You can see some system files and registry keys via the WebServer XAP. *But, he is limited*

Thanks anaheiim, I managed to sucessfully deploy the WebAccess_0_5_0.xap but not the AllCapabiliities version which is what I had tried before. I was hoping to be able to access the Win8 desktop equivelent to:-
C:\Users\USER\AppData\Local\Packages
Do you happen to know if that is possible?
Many thanks,
Simon

Yes, you can not deploy AllCap, because you are not Interop-Unlock, etc... only the ativ s allow.
You only have access to C:\Windows\... (It seems to me), that is why I said it was limited.

You can also download any Nokia Lumia FFU and use the imgMount too to convert the ffu into a vhd file. Then you can just mount the vhd file on your PC and browse away!

Interesting; I just tried it on my Surface Pro and it doesn't display any folders on the OM2 at all...
you dont have to use sync manager but i advise to install because youll get the latest drivers for your phone

I use a Nokia 909, but I guess that it's the same on all Windows Phones.
Microsoft won't allow full access to operating system folders to user or developer for security reason,thats why after long time we got at least file manager,may be there is chance in windows phone 10 with lot lot of work-ground!

If I asked you this question, is precisely that no, it is not the same thing from a device to another.
The devices that can integrate a Micro-SD card can be mod (registre) to mod MTP which allow view folders and files Sys.
Try this, but I don't know if that works on WP8.x OS.

If you download windows phone 10 tech preview there is a bug allowing you to access all system files.
