Thank goodness for this, Ive been using bluetooth and it is SLOOOOOOOW, great find. Cheers.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] gunswick:
some more testing done.

It does not matter which device runs the Wifi hotspot, they can both send and receive files.

Small files like PDF's etc have worked quickly with no problems.

Larger files like 175mb videos have caused crashes and taken very large tims to even partially complete. I think the app needs an update for larger file transfers to work more smoothly.

i have not yet tried multiple small files like a music colletion etc.

You do for sure need to open up the app and click "enable wifi reeiver", else it doesn't detect the device when you search for it to send to.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] player911:
WiFi File Explorer does this nicely.

WiFi File Explorer sets up a "Web Interface" on any device that launches it, grabs an IP and goes online.

What I like about WiFi File Explorer is that it can be accessed by ANY device that can access the IP address. Once logged in, you can upload, download (send and receive), install, delete, etc.

It doesn't matter who turns on WiFi Tether as long as they are on the same network. You don't even need a working internet connection, just WiFi Tether turned on.

I typically use the WiFi File Explorer on my phone since the Transformer has a larger screen for viewing the browser. Super easy and fast. I've dumped large files over with no problem at all. It is one of the first apps I install on any of my Android Devices.

It also allows for passwords btw.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] mikelt89:
one word, Teradesk. I am using it to transfer files over phone, transformer and pc..
[Eee Pad Transformer General] gunswick:
interesting! I tried this app but using my home broadband router which did not work.

Which web browser are you using on both the phone and the TF to be able to enter the IP of the other device?

Teradesk - I had not seen this app before, it is in the market to download for free FYI.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] gunswick:
Tried

Teradesk

- its pretty good! It allows you to sign into an account with teradesk and then login in both devices to the 1 account and then you can view files on both devices and push or pull files from one or the other.

This allows for easy transfers. You CAN use your home wifi router broadband to do transfers, but this does it in Proxy mode, which means the files go to the teradesk servers and then back to the receiver device, this is fine for small files but slow for large ones.

You can tether one device to the wifi hotspot of the other which puts the transfers in direct mode, so the files transfer directly over WiFi but it means when you navigate the file browsers it is very slow because for whatever reason you use 3g on the mobile phone to search the file directories.

So if the file is large, use a wifi hotspot. If it is small (like <50mb) then use the home broadband proxy method.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Spidey01:
I'm to lazy, I just use scp or SMB/CIFS, and thus trivially get other devices in the loop. Probably should try Bluetooth but don't need to.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] volchr:
Thanks for a great tip! Works like a charm. Been looking around for an app to do exactly this :)
[Eee Pad Transformer General] bungknees:
I've been using wifi transfer pro just with the stock browsers on my transformer and sgs2. Both work very well. I haven't tried a big file yet, but hopefully shouldn't be a problem.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] perevales:
Hi!

Very interesting, but does anybody know a similar way or app to transfer files from a PC to a Transformer and root not needed?

Thanks.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] bungknees:
Same app as I stated above, it gives you an IP address to put into your browser. works with a PC as well.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] gunswick:
Teradesk allows this too, it allows you to navigate both phone, TF and PC at once so you can transfer between all 3 just on the PC.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] player911:
WiFi Explorer doesn't require root... and I just use the stock browser to navigate to the opposite device. Quick and Easy. Launch the app, it pops up with an IP and port (ex: 10.10.50.1:8000) that you type into a browser on another device. Launches quick and works great. App gets updated often too, so support is there.

It is a direct transfer, so doesn't require internet access... just wifi.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] perevales:
I have just used SwiFTP and it works fine for this purpose. And it is free.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] xcxin:
File Expert gives you many ways to directly transfer files via WiFi. Let me explain it in details:

1. WiFi File Receiver/Sender -- this is just what you were using, we recommended to use this feature when you have small files or you just want to send single file/directory quickly via WiFi

2. FTP -- File Expert is a ftp server and client, which means you can use FE to manage (not just transfer) files on two devices. First on the host phone, start FE, choose 'Share My Contents', choose 'Start FTP sharing', then FE will give you FTP login info like IP, username and password, then on another phone, start FE, choose 'Network'. choose 'FTP client', choose 'Create A New Account' to input the FTP login info, then connect to host phone. You now can completely manage your host phone via WiFi.

---------- Post added at 01:16 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:12 AM ----------

Also, File Expert supports Web Sharing feature like WiFi File Explorer.

The web sharing feature of File Expert features a desktop like web environment and are much easier and powerful than WiFi File Explorer PRO.

Start FE, choose 'Share My Contents', choose 'Start Web Sharing'. Then use another device to login to this phone via Web
[Eee Pad Transformer General] nevzat74:
Hi,

Does File Expert have built-in WiFi Direct support?

FTP,WiFi and Web sharing capabilities are all good, however WiFi Direct might be easier to use IMO. I have Android 4.0 devices, however I could not find a way to use WiFi Direct between them.

If File Expert have WiDi support, how it's used? If it does not have, would you consider implementing it? It would be a BIG plus for your wonderful product, xcxin.

Thanks.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] DangKid:
I like AirDroid, it has a really slick interface on the computer. And it had tons of other uses besides transferring files. You wont need a IP address to connect, the website automatically creates a QR code that you can scan on the tablet for a connection.

Ok folks been hard at work for you guys again and ive put together "drumroll please" THE KANGONATOR". This is something I am pretty proud of. I took a break from the plain old status bar icons and I think everything looks pretty amazing. I have themed pretty much everything including gmail, mms, contacts, phone and a bunch of stuff youll find as you play with it. This also has the status bar clock removed but i will post an update if anyone wants the clock. Please disable auto update for gmail in the market so you dont lose the theme icons in statusbar. I am using go launcher and the glass theme for the app drawer and desktop icon and i included both of them in the theme and they will install automatically. And my clock is beautiful widgets bionic clock with perfect weather skin. And Im sure im forgetting a bunch of stuff so play with it and have fun.

install instructions,

wipe cache

wipe dalvik

install zip

fix permissions

reboot and enjoy.

So do you think we will ever see GB on infuse that is from at?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] diablo009:
Please refrain from creating threads like this. As it is there are many, many threads on the same subject. Chances are that these kinds of threads would get flamed and closed.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] jpapa1086:
Yes we will .... eventually ... as you can see there have been leaks so its being worked on. They probably are taking their time due to sg2 sales and due to the fact that the 2.3 release for Rogers had bugs to get worked out. My prediction is after the new year. Hopefully I'm wrong. It goes from Google to Samsung so they can load their bloat like touchwiz and then to att so they can load their bloat, then to us
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Kevinr678:
Considering there are about 6 leaks total, yeah... Was it really that hard to figure out?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] millerja01a:
Chad, search the forum...

Chad, such posts like this are unnecessary.

By the fact that you came to this forum, you know about searching. Search the site for Infuse gingerbread ROM or Browse the Q&A or Dev forums.

Read, learn, back your phone up. Learn to ROM and root your phone.

GB is in the wild. You don't need to wait on AT&T.

backseat moderation is the best kind of moderation, that red text really gives your message an 'official' feel.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Optimus-Prime:
I disagree. Not only are these post unnecessary because they only crowd the forum, but logical thinking would say that yes we are going to get Gingerbread since there are several leaks, meaning they are in the works of getting fixed.

But in regards to the OP, yes we are going to get Gingerbread, its just getting the kinks worked out. Patience... and besides we already have gingerbread. its going to be the same thing basically as the rogers stock rom. just the android version that will be different and maybe some "fixes"
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Bronk93:
Halloween is over, take your moderator costume off and move on. If you don't like the post ignore it then have a coke and a smile. OP, I'm running a GB leak that was posted in the development section that runs perfect. If you need help with flashing it I'd be more than happy to assist.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] ryanbmw51:

[Samsung Infuse 4G] dotpkmdot:
Because unless I'm wrong (which I frequently am!) we probably won't have bluetooth or HDMI working 100% until we get an official ATT GB release.

That would be about the only reason to care about an official GB release from ATT.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Optimus-Prime:
True that. BUUUUUUUUUUUUT we dont always use HDMI do we? i mean i dont carry my tv around... idk about you guys... though that would be funny.... but anywhore, i see the need for bluetooth but HDMI isnt really that important. it would be beast if we could use it with out the power cord though...
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Reynaldinho111:
Even if you dont use it, its nice to have everything working 100%. Lots of us WILL use HDMI, just because you wont doesnt mean nobody else will. In fact theres plenty of people who are still on froyo for this exact reason.

[Samsung Infuse 4G] Sarius24:
I like how people keep saying the rogers has bugs in it. I mean yeah there was the camera thing and no hdmi. Honestly people ive talked to havent cared at all for the hdmi output. The camera though they have. But honestly it runs pretty smooth the phone.......bugs. hmph.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Entropy512:
Bluetooth is 100% on Samsung-derived ROMs to my knowledge. Well, it's working as well as stock.

As far as Bluetooth in CM7, LB and I have said this before and we will say it again - The AT&T GB release will do NOTHING to improve that situation in any way, shape, or form.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] dotpkmdot:
Well thank you for keeping my streak of being wrong alive!
[Samsung Infuse 4G] ryanbmw51:
You are right! And I prob would use HDMI if it worked. Bluetooth actually does work (for me it did) on infused. It worked brilliantly in fact. I may even actually go back to infused just for that reason. It's my only downfall on cm7 but I wouldntbuae it too much anyway so....I guess I'm babbling.

Go bears. Lol.

Ok what's overclocking your Android phone ...sorry if this is already answered in a another post
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OriginalGabriel:
It's exactly what is says, raising your clock speed. The DZ/G2 was sold as a 800Mhz device but its processor can actually handle more than that so, with a kernel that supports it, you can over clock your device above 800Mhz for better performance. Additionally, you can under clock it for better battery life.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] convolution:
If you still don't understand what the post above means, which in fact does explain it well, here it is in more layman terms.

Overclocking makes your phone faster. The end. It's like adding more horsepower to your car. Too much overclocking can harm your phone, but a little is okay.

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Adam:
Hi,

I have been here for a while now and am at the point where I have a great relationship with my transformer and my phone (although fussy at times).

I have a stock TF101 32GB with latest updates.

My phone is Omni2 with WM6.5 and I run WMwifiRouter using Bluetooth to tether for internet when I'm out (a little cumbersome, but once setup it works well).

Question: I am at my upgrade date (Verizon) and am thinking about upgrading my phone.

I'd like to be able to do the same tethering (obviously without paying the $30/mo. tether fee as I don't now) or better and I need a phone that can sync with my Outlook (just calendar, contacts, notes, etc) as I'll get my emails either on the phone or through the TF.

I have never rooted anything although I'm curious to give it a try after reading so many posts here.

Any thoughts are appreciated - the input is always great!
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ranklepup:
Well with a custom ROM you usually automatically get portable hotspots unlocked without the plan.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Oughtsix:
Last week I talked the guy that takes care of our cell phone plan at our company to switch me from a HTC Touch Pro II running WM6.5 (that I rooted so I could tether my Transformer) to a HTC EVO running Android 2.3.

I am SO greatfull to finally be on an Android phone!!!! Of course out of the box it is $30 a month for HotSpot support but tethering with a cable works well. I haven't tried a bluetooth tether yet. I will be rooting the EVO soon to get free hotspot support.

I really miss the slide out keyboard of the Touch Pro II but love the extra screen realestate on the EVO! I have very fat big fingers and have problems with touch screen typing. The big EVO was not as bad as I was expecting for texting because of its big screen but it is not nearly as good as a physical keyboard. I ordered a pocketable blue tooth keyboard for under $20 which I will try. Another caveat of the EVO is pretty dismal battery life... so I ordered a $65 3500ma battery to improve that although it will make the sleek phone quite a bit more clunky. My first choice over an EVO would have been the ASUS Padphone... http://nexus404.com/Blog/2011/11/01/asus-padfone-gets-a-launch-date-the-long-rumored-asus-padfone-part-tablet-part-smartphone-looks-to-make-an-appearance-in-stores-early-next-year/ but it is not even available yet!

I can't express how happy I am to finally be rid of Windows Mobile!!!! Our cell phone guy showed me the super new and cool WM7... and showed me how much better it is!!!! But that is what they said when they upgraded me from from a HTC Touch with WM6.0 to the Touch Pro II... I will be giving up support for Microsoft Lync but the HTC Microsoft exchange connector works well.

I really love the UI on the Android... SO MUCH better than the awful WM interface. The best part is being able to install most (android 2.3 vs 3.2) all my favorite android apps on my phone!

...and I am a .Net developer which kind of means Microsoft is crucial for putting food on my table!
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gottahavit:
I have used both wifi and BT tether with my Droid X and TF101. Both work well. However I have given up on tethering as the carriers are now tracking "free users" and there are rumors of some people getting either terminated, or $1k data usage bills. Verizon has never charged me for tethering, but to me it's not worth the risk anymore.

So just be aware.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] justjayhere:
I always love these "BEWARE" post... I think it would be better to say, "USE Common Sense"!

If I am reading XDA post on my HTC Incredible or on my ASUS Transformer via WiFi Tether.. it is using the same amount of Bandwidth and Verizon is non-the-wiser.

It is folks that tether a PC and download Terra-bytes of Data from Peer-to-Peer sites like Piratebay that stand out like a Hore in church on Sunday. :confused:
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Adam:
I agree wholeheartedly!
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] player911:
I have my Transformer setup to sync with my works exchange. I have a G2x on Tmobile.

I use the built-in WiFi Tether, that Verizon loves to remove... but like was said, any custom rom will have that back in.

Just do your homework first on the tethering capabilities. Google's Galaxy Nexus is releasing on Verizon this month which will have straight Android and WiFi Tether should be intact regardless of Verizon's policies (it isn't straight android if Verizon screws with it). Plus the software and updates come from Google directly so you should be good. Being a developer phone, it'll get plenty of attention and updates are guaranteed.

Once it releases and I can read some hands on reviews, I'll probably trade up my work blackberry for it.
