Duo Holo File Manager PRO 1.0.20140202 APK

Duo Holo File Manager PRO aims to be your go-to app for everything file-related on your android device. It is similar to Windows Explorer or Mac finder on your computer. It can be used to access files on the device and also to browse the files on your network or on cloud services. DuoFM combines the features of the popular file managers and root explorers.


FEATURES :

• Its two main focus points are design and stability :
  
  • Design :
    
    • The application fits perfectly within the modern android holographic (Holo) style that was introduced with Android 4 (Ice Cream Sandwich).
    • It looks and feels as if it was one of the apps bundled with the core of android and follows Google design guidelines perfectly.
    • It improves on usability thanks to its innovative dual (Split) navigation pane that is fully adjustable and its navigation spinner in the action bar.
    • DuoFM has also been optimized to adapt its layout on a tablet.
  • Stability :
    
    • Extra attention is being placed on stability.
    • This is about not crashing and having features that work the way you expect them to.
    • This includes a lot of little things such as restoring the state correctly when coming back from the background or reacting to outside changes.

• This mindset is to take unusual approaches to the way it implemented some of the core features. Those differences might not be noticeable at first but they participate in making DuoFM rock solid and enable workflows that other applications don't support.

• Two of those decisions stand out :
  
  • First :
    
    • It developped a native api (in c) to query the filesystem.
    • This allowed us to use the same highly optimized api for accessing files on user accessible storage areas such as the sdcard or on root-only partitions.
    • It extended that api to enable access to archive content as if they were simple directories on the filesystem including nested archives.
  • Second :
    
    • Decided to never create any intermediate copies that not on the filesystem nor in memory.
    • It support opening / sending / copying files of any size without requiring any space left on the internal or external storage.
    • This is true for all directories such as local, remote (Over the network or in the cloud) or inside archives.
    • It stream the data to the target directory or application.

• The various storage areas are automatically detected including On-The-Go (OTG) USB attachments when available. No user specification is required.
• Access to files not located on the device or its attachements is done through plugins. This separation is done to keep the main application small and to let users decide what extra feature to install. The available plugins are listed in the settings.

• Available plugins :
  
  • LAN : To give access to the local network shares. (Windows, SAMBA or SMB)
  • Google Drive.
  • SkyDrive.
  • Dropbox.

NOTE :

• When superuser (ROOT) is enabled, partitions can be automatically remounted in rw and permissions including suid, guid and sticky bits, group and owner can be changed easily.
