TC for Black Berry - what about FTP and external SD card??

[bodiniusz]

Hello! I always use only Total Commander on my PC and Android devices.
Now I have to use Black Berry.

I was very happy to find TC ready to install.

But:
- it does not see my external SD card
- i cannot install ftp or windows (LAN) connection

Any way to move these plugins to Black Berry?

Please help! I cannot live without a Total Commander...

Did you check unter "/" (root of file system) or /mnt or /storage? It's possible that TC can't find the location, but can access it. It's also possible that it isn't accessible to Android apps.

Regarding the plugins, I cannot currently add them to the store due to restrictions on encryption in the store.

So, does that mean that there is an alternative way to deal with plugins and I should look around to find it?

Regarding external sdcard - this can be found as a subfolder of sdcard (which is the internal memory). Then it is ok. Thanks.

Yes, if you can install .bar files manually:

Hey man - you are great!

All works great!

And now the Total Commander is the only good thing about my BlackBerry, which I need to use as a company phone.

Thanks and Happy Easter.
And I now go to enjoy the TC.

- it does not see my external SD card

If someone still searches for this ( like me )

It's under /mnt/sdcard/external_sd (exactly the content of the sdcard)

Under /mnt/sdcard you find Blackberry's internal Android Storage (Device/misc/android in BB Filemanager)
/mnt/sdcard/ has also some symlinks to Blackberry's internal Storage:
/mnt/sdcard/Books -> Books (same for downloads, documents, music)
/mnt/sdcard/DCIM/camera -> camera
/mnt/sdcard/Pictures -> photos
/mnt/sdcard/Whtaspp -> misc/whatsapp (the native bb whatsapp version)

This issue is resolved in TC4A 2.81 beta 12.

i cannot install ftp or windows (LAN) connection

About impossibility to install some apk TC4A plugins on BlackBerry 10, Christian Ghisler's guess was that the problem is absent launcher icon for most of plugins (WiFi/Wlan plugin have such icon and installs fine on BlackBerry, although not all features of this plugin work there). Unfortunately, at the time when I had BlackBerry device, Christian Ghisler didn't add launcher icon to other Android plugins, so I didn't have a chance to check this theory. Currently it's possible to get (so far only by email request) at least a LAN Plugin with launcher icon too, see https://www.ghisler.ch/board/viewtopic.php?p=361965#p361965
