Nice to see you here. I mailed you few concerns and feedback but no response so seeing you reply here it's better if I put them here.

I was able to unlock pro version during a special offer where you were activating pro keys for xda users and I was one of them.

Everything worked great at that time and that version however I am having some issues on latest version and I will try to explain them in points.

1. Since I already activated pro earlier, updating to new version also kept it pro however I guess pro functions are not functional. I am able to select external sd card however data always received in internal sd card. As I can see it was intentional.

2. If I try to uninstall the app and reinstall it, there is no option to get it activated through that special key code "xdafree" but only if you buy the unlocker. Guess no option to get it back once you uninstall it, it's ok no worries just clarifying. :)

3. And the most crucial one, in older version when we open the app we have all options on the homescreen, scanning was there too so we don't have to press anything extra. Just open the app and scan to receive however in latest version we first have to select receive option and then only scanning option is available. I know we can add a widget or shortcut to Superbeam scanner directly but I rather do this from the app itself and older ui dealt with that wonderfully, I like that new lollipop ui though but having that function on main page just after opening the app was much better.

I have tried all these functions in 4.0.2, today I tried 4.0.3 and I had one more issue to report here. If I select sending folders and select any file even a single file from external sd card, arrow keeps rotating and rotating and nothing else.

By the wayI really like the one pic you posted about scanning nearby devices, that will be great. I like the history feature too, that was really needed.
[Android Apps and Games] Iceman_jkh:
Not working on Android Kitkat (ArchiDroid v3.0.2).

After clicking any item in the send screen, stuck on "loading" screen forever.

Let me know if you'd like more info.
[Android Apps and Games] majedev:
You'll be able to add a device as trusted on the first connection prompt (something like "always accept connections from this device").

This is a very good suggestion. I believe we can achieve something similar, but it will probably be in the next big feature update.
[Android Apps and Games] majedev:
1- SD card for Lollipop is coming very soon (I mean REALLY soon). As for Kitkat, there is simply no way unless you have root, with which you can disable the restriction Google implemented once and all.

2- Yeah, we had an issue with our activation backend. It's resolved now.

3- You bet:
[Android Apps and Games] nicesoni_ash:
I am on kitkat so right now my concern is with kitkat. I didn't have any issue with v3.1 related to external sd card (receiving or sending), although I did face problems if I clear it's data and set up again. If I restore my backed up app with receiving location already set to external sd card it worked always for me. Issue happened in latest version where even setting external won't copy data in external but in internal sd card. Also since I update the latest version on already existed v3.1, it automatically takes the settings and shows external sd card selected but if I clear data no way I can select external sd card. So that's my issue about external sd card in kitkat.

If installed fresh. (on kitkat)

If restored data from once this was working. (Kitkat)

2. So that means we would have an option for those who got activated during that offer to get activated again using that option? Will that be available?

And 3. Simply awesome. These teasers are really great. [emoji3] [emoji15]

Something is wrong here.

JPG files are not assocciated.

And it does not safe received files in the Download folder.

Files are saved in the SuperBeam folder.
[Android Apps and Games] ogisha:
Hello guys,

Just to report the bug.

I'm using latest pro version and I'm having a problem with saving receiving files to the folder of my own.

I had set receiving files to be saved to download folder at my internal sdcard, but they have been saved to SuperBeam's default folder, every time.

Regards,
[Android Apps and Games] josuearisty:
Alredy reported, files are been saved to default location, not where we PRO users want. [emoji3]
[Android Apps and Games] Sajoo:
Unfortunately your website for ideas doesnt work so i post it here.

Is it possible to get rid of the windows program an manage sending and receiving via browser? Chrome Plugin maybe?

I think it would be much more comfortable this way.
[Android Apps and Games] josuearisty:
I have to disagree with you, maybe this program needs some work but not get rid of it.

I dont use it very frequently but I dont want to use browser to solve my needs with SuperBeam, I would better recommend a redesign for windows app whenever the dev can.
[Android Apps and Games] nicesoni_ash:
Exactly. I use it on a daily basis on my pc and it's one of the most important app for me. More improvements would be better but getting rid of it would not be good anyhow.

[Android Apps and Games] Sajoo:
I mean i would be better if the program was running on web basis.

If you click receive on your smartphone the smartphone starts a webpage like the downloadpage you can get for files at the moment.

But you can drag and drop files there. You have to start the app anyway. I think that would complete it.

Example:

You send a file. You click on "send" and choose your file. The web page to download the file starts anyway.

I would like to have the same option for receiving files. A local web page hosted by the smartphone where i can drop the files in.
[Android Apps and Games] Iceman_jkh:
Agreed.

Once trusted devices are part of SuperBeam, I'd love to see shell integration for the PC app.

1. Right click on selected file(s)/folder(s).

2. Hover pointer over item called: SuperBeam (which expands to show trusted devices and "other device")

3. pick the device you want.

4. A directory picker/text entry appears (press enter for default/last used).

5. File(s) send!

Profit ?
[Android Apps and Games] majedev:
Hello everyone!

Quick update: Could you please tryout the following APK? This has all the new goodies (UI refresh, send+receive screen merging, Lollipop SD card access...)

Edit: URL retracted. Please download the latest version 4.0.4 from Play Store (even if you've downloaded the one that was here).
[Android Apps and Games] josuearisty:
Alright! Testing, gonna report as soon as possible! [emoji1]
[Android Apps and Games] Sajoo:
It looks very good. Better than before and more handy
[Android Apps and Games] Iceman_jkh:
Mine still gets stuck on the loading screen. Pressing back returns to main send/receive screen.

Also (and probably related), if I use back to return to main screen after the above loading screen bug and then I try send again, the files from the previous attempt are still ticked BUT the blue send arrow does not appear. I have to tick another item or untick an item to get the send arrow to pop up. The arrow even pops up if I untick the only ticked item (thereby having nothing ticked and a visible send arrow).
[Android Apps and Games] majedev:
Yes, both are related. Let me prepare a special build for you to test. Meanwhile, please let me know the following:

When it's stuck on the screen, does it say "Loading..." or something else?

Does removing and reinstalling the app help resolving the issue?

Could you please turn off WiFi before starting and see if that helps as well?

Big thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] Sajoo:
Can you make the app remember they receiving key? I have seen that you can choose one of the history, but it would be good if the last code is set by default.
[Android Apps and Games] josuearisty:
Everything is fine so far, lollipop dialog for saving files on lollipop is great.

In both kitkat and lollipop after receiving a file in "received files" screen, I tap on show files and sometimes it doesnt show the recent files I have just received.

I wish we could have text for icons in merged send/receive screen! Maybe they will have to be very little, but it would be ok. :)

Aaand my last issue was: when I tap on some of the receiving icons, at first I felt trapped, later I just tapped on back and went back. It would be great to have the back button there.

Thanks

I would prefer this to be optional, I dont really like that idea. :)

Im not too lazy for not pressing history button. [emoji41]

---------- Post added at 06:00 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:54 PM ----------

I have had this bug recently, it stays in that screen forever.
[Android Apps and Games] majedev:
That's probably gonna be very confusing for many users.. Will give it some thought.
[Android Apps and Games] majedev:
On Lollipop, the dialog is system built-in.

Looking into it.

Yeah, the space is very tight. I assume by the time you merge both screens, you'll be familiar with the function of each icon.

You can press the same icon to go back.

When freezing in the loading screen, did you send files through SuperBeam or shared them through another app?

Thanks for the feedback
[Android Apps and Games] majedev:
PC app is going through an entire re-write. We already have plans for something similar to what you suggested.
[Android Apps and Games] Iceman_jkh:
Cheers.

As requested.

1. Yes, it was that loading screen.

2. Yes, it fixed it.

3. Before uninstalling and installing the new version, I tried disabling WiFi. That also fixed it.

? thanks.
[Android Apps and Games] majedev:
That's very helpful! It was caused by the "disable asking for wifi prompt" preference in receive settings. It will be resolved in the upcoming update. Check you DM ;)

[Android Apps and Games] nicesoni_ash:
This new version fixed almost all my issues. I haven't tested that hard but I am quite happy with the latest version within what I tested so far.. Thank you for that. [emoji4] [emoji4]

I had that same issue in the attached v4.0.4 by the dev here but now after I updated through playstore, it's working perfectly.

Able to delete them here.

[Android Apps and Games] majedev:
What soft keyboard are you using?
[Android Apps and Games] majedev:
Many custom ROM's have an issue with portrait camera preview, and stock ROM on older Sony devices as well. The only solution is to show camera in landscape, which is quite inconvenient from a user experience perspective.

So I already know the workaround, but I don't know how to make it easy to access to everyone without clogging the UI. I'm open to suggestions!
[Android Apps and Games] majedev:
Yes, we're aware of the issue. I've just uploaded a new APK to fix it. Should be available in few hours.

I'm no language expert, but the translation we have is for traditional Spanish (es-ES). Is it OK to use the same one for es-US?
[Android Apps and Games] adl:
Thanks guys for fixing everything so fast! Really like the new version, great work!
[Android Apps and Games] nxt:
Nice app, works great.

How about an option to disable QR mode though?

I just don't like it going to camera for the QR and have no need for it since everyone I know uses NFC.

Again an Option to turn it off.

Thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] majedev:
You don't need to open the QR code scanner if you're receiving through NFC. Just unlock the screen and start NFC sharing right away.

If you meant something else, please elaborate more. I'm always open to suggestions.
[Android Apps and Games] Smurfjet:
Secure tethering?

Hello majedev,

Great app.

Can you confirm that the tethering fallback creates a secure hotspot?
[Android Apps and Games] majedev:
Actually it's an open wifi for now. Although the API enables me to make it secure, it didn't play nice on some devices. Btw, WiFi direct is always secure by default.

Now that you mentioned it, I'll add an advanced option to force secure hostpot creation, and another option to force WiFi direct mode on Android < 4.1 (it's possible in theory, but very buggy). This way it will not break functionality for all users, and everyone will have the choice to enable it :)

I hope that helps!
[Android Apps and Games] Smurfjet:
Thanks for the quick response.

Secure hotspot is very important. If you can pick the current secure hotspot and activate it, it would be best. If none exists, create a secured one.

Currently it "overwrites" the secure hotspot with an insecure one. Not good ;)
[Android Apps and Games] majedev:
Actually, it restores the old hotspot settings after sending is complete. If that wasn't the case, then someone needs to start fixing some bugs right away ;)
[Android Apps and Games] Psychomohd:

[Android Apps and Games] Nasty_z:

[Android Apps and Games] ynkamat:
HI Majedev, first of all thanks for such an amazingly simple app. I own LG optimus 4x which has NFC. In normal scenarios it does not uses wifi while using NFC(unlike Samsung Beam). Does your app lets non samsung users use wifi while using NFC via your app,
[Android Apps and Games] majedev:
You're welcome :)

Yes it does; that's the whole point of the app! You don't have to manually enable WiFi nor setup connections, SuperBeam does it all for you.

[Android Apps and Games] majedev:

[Android Apps and Games] majedev:
WiFi direct doesn't play well with custom ROMs. Please follow these steps to switch to hotspot (tethering) mode instead:

Open SuperBeam scanner.

Tap options > settings.

Tap Advanced settings > Preferred direct method.

Choose Hotspot.

Close SuperBeam and try sharing again.

Re: [APP][4.0+] SuperBeam - Easy & fast file sharing using WiFi Direct (NFC/QR pairin

Just noticed an issue, copied jpeg files from note2 to gt p1000 with cm10 rom, after the all the files has been copied the source (note 2) terminates the connection. From tab's perspective it prompts it lost connection and tried to reconnect and keeps on waiting for a connection.

Normaly when transfer completed, the recipient should also terminates the connection just like my note2 to s2 and vise versa but not on note 2 to p1000. Haven't tried p1000 to note 2.
[Android Apps and Games] majedev:
Thank you for your feedback. Did this happen more than one time?

I think that Note 2 closes connection before GTab flushes the files from RAM to internal storage (because it has a slower CPU). I'll try to fix this on the next update without having to increase the waiting time before closing connection on the sender.

Please keep me updated,,

[Android Apps and Games] majedev:
I'd be grateful if you could take a look. We have a translation portal setup for these purposes:

https://crowdin.com/project/superbeam/es-US

I've added es-US and imported all text from the traditional Spanish. Please take a look. PM me if you have any updates/changes to contribute.
[Android Apps and Games] majedev:
It worked in landscape by default. And since it was fullscreen, it didn't bother many users. Actually, you can still get a fullscreen landscape scanner on the new version if you press the fullscreen button on scanner, but it will always take you 2 clicks to reach there (and few extra seconds for camera lag), which is very inconvenient.

On 4.0 we had to change the UI to be able to accommodate new features for receiving (like nearby devices, and other secret stuff).

I can always give you an option in settings to workaround any issue (like "always start scanner in fullscreen-landscape"), but many users won't discover it. Anyways, I'll give it another round of thoughts and see what I can come up with.

And one bug to report or may be a feature request.

While sending data thru suoerbeam you can't see any hidden folders starts with a "." so please make it possible too., may be an option.
