Um.. My android phone did *not* come with a file manager that could see everything... in fact I don't think it even came with one. I had to install it from the market... and then you can't do anything with anything not on the SDCARD without a rooted android anyway... so whats the point?
As I said before.. if you install emelfm2 you should be able to see everything... this is no different than android. Except that it's actually possible to launch emelfm2 as root, and thus be able to actually *do* something with your files in this case...
You check the Green H to see hidden directories.
