I'm not sure there's already a widget for file browsing in android. But you can check the following articles on how they wrote their own file browsers.

you can use intent http://developer.android.com/reference/android/content/Intent.html#ACTION_PICK[^]

public static final String ACTION_PICK

to get the file name:

Java

startActivityForResult(Intent, int)

To unzip the file, you can refer to http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5028421/android-unzip-a-folder[^]
