    This is completely beyond the scope of a file explorer, and it's exactly the kind of thing intents are supposed to handle.

    Use a music/media player that gives you notification controls if you want media control without leaving GC.

    This cannot be done without a major performance hit.

    You need to understand that there is no such thing as "folder size."
    The thing you know as "folder size" is actually the sum of the sizes of every file reachable within a given directory tree. To get this number, the program needs to examine every single file and directory that exists under that particular directory, which can take a really, REALLY long time and if it's a complex directory tree.

    This is why "folder sizes" are only computed on user request in practically every system with a traditional hierarchical filesystem.

    If you want to find out where your storage space has gone, you should use a specialized program, such as "DiskUsage" for Android, Baobab for GNU/Linux, WinDirStat for Windows or Disk Inventory X for OS X.

    I personally prefer the commandline utility "ncdu" for GNU/Linux and other unices.

    You can use APG for your public key and symmetric encryption needs on android.

    When you press the copy or move buttons in the toolbar, the default location (already filled out in the text prompt) is the location of the other panel.

    There are a couple of caveats, though:
    - A copy/move operation from a root panel into a normal panel destination may fail due to lack of sdcard permissions on the source dir.
    - Move and copy operations within a single remote resource may involve passing the file contents through the Android device instead of doing a direct move or copy on the remote system.

    I usually do these things through a root shell, but a bug in CM10.2.0 that broke tab completion and line editing in root shells brought attention to how painful that may be for some users.

    I have no experience in Android development and my familiarity with the platform is as a power user. If any of what I said doesn't make sense, I would appreciate it if someone could correct me.
