There is no "default file manager" on many Android devices. There is no requirement that any file manager respond to any particular Intent structure from third-party apps, other than MAIN/LAUNCHER for the launcher icon. And there is no requirement that any app allow the user to rename anything from an ACTION_GET_CONTENT activity.

You will need to implement your desired functionality yourself, perhaps with the assistance of one of these libraries.
