1st fully functioned file manager arrived in wp store compatible only for wp8.1 updated phones...

If devs can make someone like this. I am sure that a Microsoft version is sitting somewhere and ready to be downloaded! HAHA.

Class 10 32 gb sd card and problem solved.

actually class 4 is also fast enough, i have 2 32gb class 4s in my 820 and 720 with 8.1 and it can even run asphalt 8 and gta sa without lag
mirosoft has done excellent optimisations for apps to run from sd ,android is slower in this regard in my experience
though yeah load times are 5 seconds more but a class 10 should have better load time

But Pocket File Manager can't move files in the internal memory. For example, I can't move pictures between folders.

PFM paid version user.

EDIT: I need an updated Pocket File Manager, I love the features, but I need access to internal folder.

the dev tells that the 8.1 version of PFM which has started beta enrolling will have full access to internal memory too. But some things would be lost because MS has done a lot of crap with APIs..

I guess the api changes are necessary because WP8.1 is different, some changes are done but the devs can change their apps. And the store is better for developers.

oh really ? I am communicating with the developer of PFM, and he's posting that in his new port of PFM for 8.1, which will be able to handle internal memory, he cant access background player, he cant send emails of pics at full resolution, and he cannot do many other things simply because MS removed the APIs for all those things ! They even disabled background music playing for apps, how stupid !

Are you a developer? Do you know the API? How can you say it is stupid?



I don't think background music is disabled because I can play videos on the background in myTube.



Wait an update from the developer, I'm sure he is studying the API and will do a great work.

to be exact, MS removed audio playing ability for Silverlight apps, but still the dev (he's very responsive) said that its very weird to remove such capabilities.. He's already said that we wont get the music player in pfm for 8.1 because of that (it was the only app i know which allowed music bar scrubbing)..
And 8.0 apps work like they used to (eg myTube), but they cant be recompiled for 8.1 and thus cant take make use of new API, but can use the old ones.

Still. Lets hope he rewrites all his libraries and all third party libraries again for that thing ! (that's asking too much, so it's probably not happening, but lets hope, some day...)

Lastly, i am not a developer (yet, plan to start in 2 months), but i do know stuff about programming

I think all developers should stop making Silverlight apps.

Well, it is on the API and on Visual Studio, but I think Silverlight apps wll be replaced with Windows Phone Store apps
