 Children children = service.children();
 Drive.Children.List request = children.list("root");
  do

    try
       {
          ChildList cList = request.execute();
          for (ChildReference cr : cList.getItems())
           {
              File file = service.files().get(cr.getId())   .execute();
              System.out.println(file.getTitle() + "--"+ file.getMimeType());
           }
        request.setPageToken(cList.getNextPageToken());
       }
   catch (IOException e)

If you have a query with multiple conditions, like you want to get ROOT's files and folder, and also don't want to get the trashed files. Then below query will helpful "'root' in parents and trashed=false"

  request.setQ("'root' in parents and trashed=false").execute();

Use trashed = false query when listing:

drive.files().list().setQ("trashed = false").execute();

More querying options are on https://developers.google.com/drive/search-parameters
