Yes. I had to update the project to WP 8.1 because I wanted the multi-sharing feature.

How to backup app data of WP8.1 apps (only for apps installed on phone storage):

1. Choose public folder (orange)
2. Tap on the IO Explorer button (3rd button at the top with windows symbol)
3. Search for "Local" folder
4. Double tap on the folder name
5. Search for "Packages" folder
6. Double tap on the folder name
7. Select the folders you want to backup
8. Tap on the backup button (3rd button of the appbar at the bottom with SD symbol)

=> backups are stored on the sd card ("AppDataBackup" folder)

How to restore app data:

2. Search for "AppDataBackup" folder

Post all tweaks you would like to add to the tweaks tab.

@contable, this message is for you

All these tweaks are just a collection of the tweaks I found useful and still use in my phone.
They were posted/discovered from other users from xda that I will singly thank for each tweak.

- Faster Boot - Only on Ativ S with WP8.1- (tnx to @thals1992 and @marass82 )

HKLM (dword)
PATH: System\CurrentControlSet\Pnp
KEY: BootOptions
VALUE: 00000003

- Reduce the time of sensor delay when passing from a light place to another (tnx to @AlvinPhilemon )
It works on my wp8.1 pfd Ativ S

HKLM (dword)
PATH: Software\OEM\AutoBrtightness
KEY: TransitionDelay
VALUE: 000001 (default 3)

- Soft vibration-haptic feedback when pressing physical buttons -as a Galaxy S3- (tnx again to Alvin)
You should put both the keys on a single button to activate the tweak

HKLM (dword)
PATH: System\Touch\Buttons
KEY1: Duration
VALUE1: 20 (default 25)

(same path and dword)
KEY2: Intensity
VALUE2: 30 (default 50)

- Disable Camerasound (tnx to @-W_O_L_F-)
the same tweak from wphtweaks didn't work for me with wp8.1, so you could add it.

HKLM (dword)
PATH: Software\Microsoft\EventSounds\Sounds\Camera
KEY: Disabled
VALUE: 0 (default 1)

- Save Maps to sd , already working in wphtweaks but why not adding it (tnx to @djtonka)

HKLM (dword)
PATH:System\Maps\Storage
KEY:UseExternalStorage
VALUE: 1 (def 0)

- Show USB in settings -only on 8.1- (tnx to @Loco5150)

HKLM (dword)
PATH: Software\Microsoft\Shell\USB
KEY: DisableUSBControlPanel
VALUE: 0 (default 1)

- Add 'export on sim' in the addressbook settings (tnx again to @spavlin and djtonka)

HKLM (dword)
PATH: Software\Microsoft\Contacts\SIM
KEY: EnableSIMAddressBookAndExport
VALUE: 00000001

- Increase the sd performances (tnx to djtonka)

enable HS200 feature on eMMC-only working in wp8.1

HKLM(dword)
PATH: System\ControlSet001\Services\SdBus\Parameters
KEY1: DisableHS200Support
VALUE1: 0 (default 1)

(same path and dword)
KEY2: DisableUhsSupport
VALUE2: 0 (default 1)

Then.. a question.. What does THIS TWEAK? I've never undestrood.
as GDTD says

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\FileSystem]

Lots of interesting values (these are the values controlled by the "fsutil" program on Windows). The ones most interesting to those who would tinker with symplinks are the following:
"SymlinkLocalToLocalExecution"
"SymlinkLocalToRemoteExecution"
"SymlinkRemoteToLocalExecution"
"SymlinkRemoteToRemoteExecution"
These are all DWORDs and are all disabled by default on the phone (unlike on the PC, where the "LocalTo*" ones are enabled). Set the values from 0 to 1 to enable.

and then this..what is it done for?
as spavlin says

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\Accessibility]
"tty_UI"=dword:00000001
"telecoil_UI"=dword:00000001
"compactMode"=dword:00000001

Cheers, @contable let me know what tweaks you'll add.

As Jessenic has updated WPHTweaks I don´t have to update the tweaks tab.
I will only add tweaks which could be useful while using IO Explorer.

Edit: Instead of I will try to add a launch button for WPHTweaks.

Anyway thanks for posting all the keys !

BTW you allready can launch WPHTweaks from inside IO Explorer using the APP Launcher extension.

Anyway thanks for posting all the keys !

What the f***..unlucky me..jessenic has updated wphtweaks just some minutes after I posted this..
If I knew before I wouldn't waste my time writing...
Anyway you could add some tweaks which aren't featured in wph...
I'll try the new app and let you Know if some tweak is missing so you can add it if u wont

Missing tweaks I can add.

IO Explorer V3.5.1 is available now.

Thx again for supporting here.

New translation for V3.5.1 correcting some bugs

contable · May 21, 2014 at 9:32 AM

I could successfully register the app as Share Target. This means beginning with the next version V3.6 you´ll be able to receive all kind of files from other apps via the WP8.1 share feature.

The next release is expected for the coming weekend...

contable · May 24, 2014

The next version V3.6 is available.

I have added Share Target support => receive multiple files from other apps.

It took a while to add this feature because IO Explorer is a Windows Phone Silverlight 8.1 solution, not a Windows Phone 8.1 solution. ~~It´s not documented how to add the Share Target feature for those apps.~~

Edit: It´s documented here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn655125%28v=vs.105%29.aspx

@lomax50:

I know that some parts are still not translated. We´ll do that with the next update.

contable · Jun 24, 2014

It looks like that the next version will bring more access to the filesystem.... I could make visible the subfolders of the root folder (C:\\) and some more folders I couldn´t access so far.

Edit: It will take some time because I have to remove the nativefilesystem from GDTD and re-code the most parts. No ETA.

Sunius1 · Aug 9, 2013 71 36 0

What API do you use to enumerate root of C:\? Does FindFirstFileEx work here with certain flags?

GoodDayToDie · Jun 25, 2014 at 7:34 AM

That is a *very* good question. My guess is that it's either WP8.1 specific or it's using loopback to the MTP service with the phone root path set at C:\, but it could be something else. I'd be interested in seeing how it's done...

contable · Jun 25, 2014

I just use the StorageFolder class:

Code:

StorageFolder sf = await StorageFolder.GetFolderFromPathAsync("C:\\");
            List<IStorageItem> lsf = new List<IStorageItem>();
            var items = await sf.GetItemsAsync();
            string test = "";
            foreach (IStorageItem item in items)
            {
                lsf.Add(item);
                test = test + item.Name + "\n";

            }
            MessageBox.Show(test);

After that you should get the properties...

That way you can also browse the C:\Windows\System32 folder as well, but there are still folders I can´t access. Maybe because I didn´t add all capabilities.

Edit:
@Sunius1, @GoodDayToDie:

Atm I don´t have time for doing more tests, so any help would be appreciated.

contable · Jun 25, 2014

@GoodDayToDie:

Can you explain why your nativefilesystem has lower priveleges than the StorageFolder/StorageItem class ?

I allways thought that the level of access depends on the used capabilities.
