[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Krystanos:
Yeah that's what I said in my post Edit ;)

Should have had a look at the video before trying it...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Budius:
did you try again? it worked?

It's good for me those feedback, I get ideas on what to change/what to improve.

the comments on google play although appreciated, don't give me the chance to ask back and really see what's happening.

thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Krystanos:
Well, I tried it with the good way of doing it, but it failed...

I tried to send an image from my GS3 to my TF101. Everything went well until the connection message on the TF101.

Then nothing. The two devices went in "Failed" status. And I can't connect the TF101 again... The status is "Invited" on my GS3, but the TF101 do not receive any connection request.

Still, it worked between 2 GS3.

I can do more testing to help you find out what happen. Just tell me what you want me to try and I'll give you the feedback. I can't test a lot in daytime though. And even less in the evening ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Budius:
Unfortunately the whole connection process and status are directly from the Android system, the app just receive the statuses and shows to the user. Sometimes you just have to try again, maybe start the connection from the other device.

If the device you tap on the list is either available or failed, it will ask the system to connect.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Krystanos:
Tried again from GS3 ti TF101. Just failed again... Too bad as it's my main goal in WiFi Direct use. Send files between my phone and my tablet.

I guess I'll just give up WiFi Direct... At least until Jellybean is available for my TF101.

Also, you should handle multiple image/video sharing. The process is too heavy to send many images on by one...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Budius:
I wish I had a SGS3 and a TF101 to try and see what's going on.

You're the first to try a TF101. I know the TF300 can be a bit picky sometimes.

Yes, multiple files seems to be a recurring request and will be implemented on future releases, I jus want to better iron out the basics first.

Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] prembox:
BubbleUPnP is available on the Play store with both free and paid version. I use the free version to play virtually any media from my GNex to my Sony Bravia NX720. I switch on the WiFi Direct on the Bravia...keep it as is....open BubbleUpNp app on the phone....go to Libraries and just select the folder/file to play, display it on the TV....
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Krystanos:
I think the TF101 is as bad as the TF300. Do you have a trick to make it work on TF300 I could try on TF101?

It's a shame such a good tablet became a crap with ICS...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Budius:
not really. just try again if it fails and usually starting from the tablet seems to work better, but can't say for sure.

I've been thinking to remove the devices list from one of the sides (probably the receiver) to avoid confusion on who's the sender, whos the receiver, and to avoid people trying to connect two receivers with no senders.... what you guys think?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rockhwd:
it works !!!

i use my gf galaxy s3 to transfer a 90+MB video to my Galaxy Nexus, and is within a minute!!!

look forward in future can transfer files other than music and video:good:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dr.sonic:
Well, if that was a Samsung promo video from s3, i transferred that from s3 to Gnex in less than a 15 seconds :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rockhwd:
yes, is that video:D i didn't count how long it takes in fact, but to me is consider very fast, so i just say within a minute:laugh:

but maybe within a minute make it sound slow:D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Budius:
Hi guys,

is anyone with interested in beta test the app?

I started a new thread in the development section asking for Logcats if you're experiencing force close.

Also it's a cut down version of the .apk there to test part of the system.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=30012554

any help will be great appreciated.

thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Krystanos:
Ok, so I can confirm that sending from TF101 to GS3 works, while doing the contrary does not...

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Budius:
Does it crash? do you have a logcat of the crash? Any further details on "how" it doesn't work?

check my Beta Testers thread on my signature.

thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Krystanos:
Does not seem to involve your app... It just fails without anything special.

Will have a look to the logs later... :)

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Budius:
Fails the connection itself? Status: Failed?

It's a bit tricky to develop this kind of app, as the app just asks the OS to connect and awaits and answer from the OS and if it doesn't connect ppl blame the app.

I've been having some trouble on the Asus Prime (TF201) and TF300 that I could try.

They're always more annoying to connect.

Between nexus devices and SGS2 and SGS3 seems to be fine.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] alewillywonka:
Nice app i try it immediatly and i'll share with my friends for more testing!

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kliklakloe:
I,ve been looking for a way to use wifi direct for months but i use an alternative called wifi file sender from the play store.

Just install on both devices and setup one of them as a mobile hotspot that way you can send all files, folder etc. Without wifi direct and without a hotspot other than your own device.

It works great for me figured this one out myself strange i cant seem to find anything about this on the entire web, way better than apps like airdroid etc.

---------- Post added at 08:38 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:23 PM ----------

The wifi shoot app doesnt work for me, i tried sending a pic the same way as on youtube but when i invite the receiving device nothing happens.

They see eachother buth invite doesnt work.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] BlitzWing00:
I just tested the Wifi File Sender, it's not Direct Wifi transfer from what I could tell. It appeared to be using out home PC router, and it was much slower. With the Wifi Shoot app, we were able to transfer a 323 mb mkv file between two Galaxy Nexus running JB in 2:30 min. With the Wifi File Sender it appeared to be maybe half way done at 2:30 min when we decided to cancel the transfer.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hshah:
What I do is create a hot spot on my phone and connect the tablet by wifi. WiFi File Sender works like a treat, copying at about 5mb/s.

Sent from my GT-I9300
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] JediNinjafication:
Wifi direct is a way to send files without having a connection tho. need to be off your connection. It creates it's own.

Hi guys,

Is there a way to set up the proxy on our little x10mini pro?

I've installed on my phone the MiniCm7 Pro v20 rom and i've tried a couple of app (ProxyDroid, WifiaAvanced) but none of these works. Any suggestion?

Thx for the reply!!:D
[Acer Iconia A500] irishmoe:
So was using officepro for a while to type reports. I then put them on my usb stick put it in the pc at work and print. Then as of last week this no longer works for me. Now when i open them on pc the word file is blank regardless of what format (2003 or 2007) i saved. Same happens on my home pc. Perfect on the tab, blank on the pc. What gives? Any help would be appreciated.
[Acer Iconia A500] irishmoe:
Either I'm the only person who has these problems or I'm a dimwit and nobody wants to tell me so. ;)
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
Ok,, you're a Dimwit, and nobody else has these issues.

:D (you asked for it).

Use Polaris Office.

You can get the apk by unzipping any of the roms that have it included.

Install the apk,. then, I believe there are 2 polaris files, you also have to copy to the system directory. You can google and find what and where. I just can't remember offhand.

Oh, and one more thing, make sure your stick is formatted to FAT32 through your pc.
[Acer Iconia A500] irishmoe:
Tried polaris but it won't save in 2003 format for the crappy pc at work. Never thought about the usb fat32 possibility but then been using the same stick under same conditions for a few months with no issues. Thanks for the tip anyway. Oh ..and the insult, I did ask for it. :D
[Acer Iconia A500] cruise350:
Quick Office allows you to save in WD 2003 or 2007 and works much better than Office Pro. Give it a try.
[Acer Iconia A500] spexwood:
hate to just suggest another app option, but also try Docs2Go

I use it and have had no problems transferring and opening the files on any PC's despite what format the Word file is in.
[Acer Iconia A500] irishmoe:
Thanks but it seems it was a usb unmounting issue. I usually just pull out the stick but after unmounting properly the files are unharmed. Not fully sure why but I'm happy now so that's the important thing, right?

Thanks for the suggestions, :D

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] GN_ICS:
What I would like to do is send files to my GN via my wireless network (movies, music files, pictures etc) and also stream files directly (i.e .mkv 720p video files). Would be very happy if you could point me in the right direction!:)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bennettm89:
I'm not so sure about streaming, but for transfer, Dropbox may help.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] GN_ICS:
Problem with that is, I first have to upload to the Dropbox servers and then download from the phone. What I want is a faster method since my upload speeds are very slow. I am thinking along the lines of a ftp server perhaps, but not sure if that is the best option?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bennettm89:
FTP seems that you would go through too much trouble setting it up just for that. I see your point about upload speeds though, and you are correct. I can't say I know of any other solution :(.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rock7632:
there's an app I use. its called wifi file explorer. you can use it to transfer files from your PC to the phone over wifi
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cbutters:
If you are just looking to stream videos, look into mirage beta in the market, and use it in conjunction with a windows app called "air video server" it works great together, and it will even transcode subtitles, and transcode on the fly high res video down to something more compatible for streaming with. This setup is especially nice because you can stream your entire video collection at will to your phone, and not use up any space on the phone at all, (provided you have network)

For normal files, wifi explorer or dropbox work fine. If you want, you can even run a FTP server on your android device and connect into it from your computer using the IP address of your phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] TonyHoyle:
I use Plex - not only transcodes but the grabs box art, descriptions etc. and has a very slick interface. Might be overkill for your needs though...

Wifi file explorer is really nice for just getting general files to the phone. There's also a DAV server available (forget the name of it) so you could then mount the phone as a drive and copy directly.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gabster21:
ES File Explorer, all you needs in 1 app. Streams mkvs perfectly with dice player, no need for extra software on your PC
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rob6raham:
Slightly off topic but can ES access twonky servers? Would be nice to have the dice player integration and avoid the twonky app.

Sent from my Galaxy Nexus
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] TonyHoyle:
That doesn't seem to work on the GN. All that happens is you get a dialog that says 'Dice player has stopped' (the same file plays fine if copied to the phone).

Edit: Seems to be ICS compatibility issue..

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] The Gingerbread Man:
Does the Galaxy Nexus not feature dlna? That sounds perfect for OP's needs. Older androids feature this out of the box.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gabster21:
If you're talking about Allshare, that only comes with TouchWiz not stock Android.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] The Gingerbread Man:
no I mean dlna, you use it to stream video, pictures or music over wifi. For example I connect my x10 to wifi and enable dlna and activate dlna on my TV and I can then browse through my phones media contents and play them.

Was just looking through the settings on nexus and couldn't see it but also found wifi direct here's a good http://www.wi-fi.org/Wi-Fi_Direct.php its not the same as dlna, can't find it anywhere in the phone. Surely it has it?!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] BinaryTB:
I actually use Upnplay and Moboplayer on my Nexus S (and Ps3 media streamer on my PC) to stream MKVs from my desktop to my phone. Works pretty well and it's via dlna.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] The Gingerbread Man:
No sign on any settings for dlna or galaxy nexus, should be under settings/wireless and networks. Unless those apps have some kind of dlna built in to them? I want to use dlna just I can't find it or know if its even supoorted
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rock7632:
do you mean ps3 media server? and if so, can you tell me how it works on your phone? I have it on my PC and it works great on my ps3
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MysteriousDiary:
Don't care about not included DLNA Apps. So far my experience was that most of the DLNA Apps the manufacturer added were crap :/

But well, there is one which worked always pretty well for me. It's the app "Skifta" by Qualcomm

https://market.android.com/details?id=com.skifta.android.app

Try this in combination with a good videoplayer (Diceplayer,Vplayer,Rockplayer) and it should work pretty fine. This way I could always stream my videos from PC to my Android phone without any problems. Just share the media in windows media player or any similar software which supports DLNA.

Couldn't test skifta on ICS so far because I'm still waiting for my phone but I hope it runs as well on ICS as it was running on older Android versions.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] The Gingerbread Man:
Legendary, had an update 28/11/11 to support ics. Your a star for sharing, about to test now ;)

It works!! Thanks man :D :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] BinaryTB:
Whoops, sorry, yeah, that's what I meant. Let me check my settings... I installed it a while ago and once it worked, I haven't touch it since.

On my HTPC Server, installed it, pointed it to whatever folders I want to share (currently only video for when I'm in bed at night and don't want to wake the wife with an episode of whatever), set the transcoding settings to use multi-cores, almost everything else on default.

On upnplay on my Nexus S... (horrible GUI btw), started up the app, the PS3 Media Server I just set up shows up automatically (it's all on the same wifi network, haven't tried it via 3G), click on it, my folder shares show up, I click on a video and it starts up via moboplayer.

I use moboplayer, tried a few others, found moboplayer to be the most stable for me while playing mkvs and any other video I throw at it.

A tip. I found (this was months ago, maybe it's better now with new versions) that mkv streaming of high res video on the Nexus S was unstable or really slow. So I used Handbrake to transcode a season of a show at time from MKV/720p to MP4/800x480. It was super simple, they have a phone profile you click on and voila. Downside? a bit more harddrive space it used, upside? Instantaneous playback.

Also, streaming MP4 h264 videos (which are natively supported by the Nexus S) via Upnplay would sometimes just quit the app randomly. Moboplayer was more stable in that regard too.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AMoosa:
I'm on stock unrooted. When I have a notification and the light is pulsing, it is mainly white, but has a pink-ish colour in the top right and a green-ish colour in the bottom left of the circular light. Is this normal? What do you guys have? Do I have a faulty unit?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gambiting:
Yes it is normal. Already tested by other users. If you want to customize colours use the Light Flow application.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] oscillik:
It is normal because to achieve white light, the phone has to switch on all the LEDs at once. This can lead to colour bleeding at the edges.
