Hi,
Im experiencing trouble accessing www.haltonvpn.co.uk through my Vodafone v1640.
This links to our CSG box to allow me access to a Citrix session through terminal services.
The link works fine through my XDA using GPRS, but i get a white screen on the universal.
Any ideas anyone?
Thanks in advance,
Ok,
After lengthy discussions with our account manager at Vodafone, it would seem that the standard IE browser that ship has some faults accessing Https:// sites (such as internet banking). Obviously this isnt acceptable for what we need!
I'll let this board know when the faults are resolved. Hopefully i may be able to post a flash which fixes these problems.
I have installed netfront browserwhich seems to aleviate some of the problems, but it is still definitely no where near useable!
I'll let you know how i get on.
why you do not install the ICA client for winCE?
- You have to download the newest version in english provided from Citrix
- don't forget the installation of your certificate on the pda
- configure your WinCE-ICA-client like the Win32-ICA
This is a well running solution for me and my colleagues! OK it's not really easy to configure the client, but your admins will assist you!
greetings

CU at Citrix Summit in Orlando!
I tried that today, but couldnt access the link to our external facing Citrix Secure Gateway because its a Https:// site!

hi Mike,
this should not be a problem! The CSG beyond the IIS is the point! And you're able to configure the ICA-client to use https! How i mentioned above, the configuring of the client isn't simple.
Perhaps some steps to configure the WinCE client!
1) don't forget the certifiate, suggest you've installed the client
2) create a new connection (the next points are reachable at creation or with button edit)
3) goto edit firewall settings, enter the FQN URL from the csg and the port, per default it's 443
4) goto edit options, session reliability MUST be turned OFF - this is really important because of the actual csg DON'T support this feature
5) goto server settings:
-select protocol SSL/TLS+HTTPS
-enter the INTERNAL FQN URL of a internal citrix server, it is really important to enter the complete FQN URL = DNS name
-now you should be able to refresh the servers-list also the PA-List, if you're not: enter the server-name or the PA-name manually
ready steady go!
hope you understand all the it-stuff, if not: write a new post

We have it working
It seems that you cannot even access the Page
This means you need to install the certificate
Login and you will see the Icons irrespective of whether you have the Client or not You will just be able to download the ICA files instead of launching it
The ICA Installation put some files in \windows\startup that needs to be removed
Further almost no Config should be done on the Client side
PIE and Opera 8.50 works
get used to squinting and working in akward places!!!! 8)
Regards Frikkie
I tried accessing the Page and can get to the login screen - I see that you are using a Public CA , so the certificate are already trusted. If the problem is further on , it might be that you are accessing the access center which uses activeX controls not supported by WinCE,
We got around that by makng a seperate Page for PDA that only uses CSG and not access center
Hope this helps - let us know exactly where you get stuck!
Regards
Frikkie
I cant even access the link www.haltonvpn.co.uk
Whenever i enter this link i just get a blank white screen on the V1640.
It works fine on my XDA but not on the V1640.
Vodafone told me that they couldnt help me and that QTEK couldnt help either as we havent bought 50 devices!
Any thoughts would be most useful
Hi everyone.
After searching through the forums, I couldn't get any satisfactory answer.
1) I have THD and Elfin - both WM devices. My question here is, how can I transfer files ( like Fotos, M$ office Documents, Music etc. ) using WiFi or to be precise WLAN? I do not wish to use Wireless internet to send files....I mean to say, without using any thrid wireless device, how can I enable file sharing between these two devices??
I have checked out Resco file explorer and Total Commander. None of them provide option of FTP over WLAN/WiFi.
2) Similarly, how can I transfer files between my WiFi enabled Laptop and THD/Elfin???
Is there any setting to be changed in existing devices, any 3rd party application?? or is it a call for Developers?
Big Thanks Ahead.

I preffer FTP protocol as there are many clients on Windows/Linux. On my blackstone I use Mocha FTP Server (freeware). Total Commander CE does support FTP (only as a client). Transfer rates are rather slow.

Thanks Guys....that was really quick. Just 1 question though - does this method solves my first problem - file sharing between two WM6/6.1 devices using WiFi ???
Thanks Again.

Well yeah, you can browse to a network share with e.g. Total Commander. So it should work once set up properly. Going to try this myself!!
Pardon me if I'm asking for too much.....can we have something like VoIP or to be precise, a radio communicator using such 'WiFi/WLAN between 2 WM devices'? It will be fun to communicate with friends in a 'trucker' style within WiFi range - 10-4 ?

Dude this one dosent seems to be working with WM 6 (for my Elfin) [at least the link says so ] Can you please confirm?
Thanks ahead
True... I cannot install it on my blackstone...
Yes you can....I have installed it on my Blackstone and me Elfin too (after upgrading Elfin to 6.1). And it works.
However, I am still not able to transfer files (using WLAN) between my Elfin and blackstone. Any ideas on that??
Thanks Ahead
Hi guys,
I am extreamly happy to say that i have been able to share files from one windows mobile to another windows mobile that too at the speed of up 450kbps.
i had been trying to do this for atleast 2.5 months with no luck(u may check the related topics, nobody had a idea, Even using xda, google, bing, yahoo, altavista found that nobody has done it before...) but yesterday i made it to work the way i wanted to.
All you need to do is create a adhoc connection(e.g P2P) and download FTP server (Yes your mobile will act as a FTP server) and FTP client.
For FTP server download mochasoft and for FTP Client download resco.
**Once you install resco 2008, go to menu-->options-->addins--> then download ftp plugging(and it will make resco to work as a ftp client)
Mobile A
Start--->settings-->connections-->add new ->name it p2p-->select the option "this is a device-to-device connection(adhoc)...once it is done, turn on wifi on Mobile B it will detect this connections, connect to it.....Now two mobiles are connected with each other via wifi(Without router).....Till this point you can find it in google.
Now to share files open mocha soft on Mobile A(It will show that it is "online" with a specific IP address(Note down this ip address), Anonymous login will be on but preferabaly create a user name (File--->settings--> Add[*give it a read/write permission]) and the password.
Then decide for yourself what exactly you wanna share with the other mobile, in this example i am going to share my SD CARD. Go to file -->settings--> other--> and in the "Login Folder:" put in "\\storage card"
Once that's done open up resco ftp on Mobile B. Go to My ftp locations-->New ftp session--Give a name to ftp session (like abcd), In the host type in the ip address address that you noted down earlier--> let the port 21-->Login:ut in the username that you created-->Password: put in the password
and Hey there you go!!!, you will have the Sd Card of Mobile A and you will be working on it as if it is in your own mobile..
....Cont...
On mobile A moccha will notify you that a user has logged on to your server. You can use all FTP commands on mochasoft.
I downloaded the 700Mb movie which was stored in my frnds mobile while we were having beer and it got downloaded at the speed of 450kbps(it started off with 350kbps and was fluctuating from 380 to 450kbps), Just before doing this i tried to copy a 10mb file using bluetooth and resco showed the speed 20kbps........
So next time when you go out to meet your frnds you can transfer all their stuff at the lightning speed via WIFI file sharing......
Good Luck!!
If i got to settings connetions i can only create a modem or VPN connection..nothing with ad hoc..what am i missing?
If I remember correctly, you set up an adhoc network as if you were to enter a custom network with a hidden ssid. You enable wifi and go to the screen where it shows the available networks. There you can add a new network and tick this is an adhoc connection.
Also, since adhoc connections have no dhcp server, it is best to work with fixed ip addresses.

I have a home server (Windows Home Server) with tons of stuff on it. When I am traveling, I have tried to access and download epub format ebooks, and the browser gives me an error message that the download failed because that file type is not supported by my phone device. (Aldiko didn't help with this)
I have noticed this with other file types also.
Is there a way to download ANY file type from my home sever, even ones "not supported" by the phone? This would be very useful thing to be able to do.
The home server is accessed via a web browser (https).
stock Dell Streak Froyo.
setup ftp server on your home server
open a port on your router and do port forwarding to ftp port on your server
WAN port like 44444 -> serverip:21
then use a filemanger or FTP client (I use EStrongs file manager, but there are several others) to connect to the external IP of your router at port 44444 (or whatever port you chose above)

I'll have to study up a bit to do something like that. I was hoping there was just some way to allow android to download any file type through the web (http).
The FTP server solution is one way to go. Have you tried a different browser??

I have tried different browsers and apps such as crutch and download buddy. Some of those do let me download the file, but when I try to open the file, it won't. Yet, if I transfer the file by USB or Dropbox, it works fine.
Very frustrating...
Don't know that I want to go through the trouble of setting up an ftp server for something that seems so obvious... can't believe it's not part of the android OS to allow such web based file transfers within the browser???
why not use dropbox? its free, and 2gig will store a lot of epub format ebooks
https://www.dropbox.com
I use Download all files.
http://www.appbrain.com/app/download-all-files/com.hwkrbbt.downloadall
I use a VPN setup. i think it's the most powerful, albeit a bit tricky to setup. should you need help configuring it dont hesitate to ask. however, whatever your solution, remember a couple of limitations:
- you can access mapped net shares (smb) using almost any file explorer (i use astro), you can copy your files to the sd, but you cannot run remote files. that's because generally no app is able to deal with the smb protocol.
- to circumvent this limitation, you must be root. i don't exactly know the passages but the general method is to create a mount point to your net share (something like \mnt\network1 or whatever), so the system (and most important the apps) will be tricked to think they are dealing with local files. if you are not root, upon reboot the mount point will be forgotten. I read about this somewhere around here.
@ stoney73: I do use Dropbox, but would like to be able to access anything on my server while I am traveling.
@tenorntex: I just ran across that app and will likely give it a try.
@crashDebug: sounds interesting. I would have to do a bit of research and educate myself before I could attempt what you're describing.
Thanks all. It will be solved eventually.
Hi^^
Probably a strange question...but.
Guide or ideas for share file beetween X10 and PC on window 7 home ed?
PC recognize X10 wireless connection..but ask key and adress...that i never set...
help please^^
Sorry for my english
I like to use Wifi Explorer. With that, all you have to do is connect to your home wifi, run the program, then navigate to the web address given by Wifi Ex. (for ex: http://192.168.1.115:8000) You can download/upload files to your phone or zip folders on your phone to download multiple files easier.
I also find that it makes it easier to share with my friends because they can navigate to that page through their phones browser to grab apks or whatever.
- X10a Wolf 008 ~via XDA App
or MYPHONE EXPLORER its an APK on your phone and a program installed on your pc get it free from hxxp://www.fjsoft.at/
you can also transfer contacts and sms witht hsi app
SwiFTP FTP Server
SwiFTP... easy to configure and files can be shared both ways hassle-free... the best I've used till now...
i use Dropbox and VNC server so if im watching tv upstairs and cbf going downstairs i just vnc and dropbox to send stuff to and from my pc or phone or to my mates and it goes on a external server for backup
Not sure if its the best but I use Samba Filesharing from the market. The app keeps the phone awake for transfering large files which i find useful.
Thank you all guys...
I love you^^
This guide will help transfer files from an Android Phone (HTC Desire running 2.2 Froyo) to the Transformer - using only Wifi anywhere.
I have only quickly tested this so the technique will probably simplify as I try more combinations.
This example will transfer files from Transformer to Phone as that is what I tested yesterday very very quickly!
Step 1:
Install "File Expert" from the Market on both Phone and Transfomer.
Step 2:
On the receiving unit for the file transfer, i.e. the phone. Start a WiFi hotspot so the phone is creating a wifi signal. (I am not sure yet how important it is which device does this step so standby for an update). Set a password to prevent unauthorised access to your phone!
Connect the transformer to this WiFi network (i.e. to the phone) using the password you set above.
Step 3:
On the receiving unit (phone), open file expert app, click "Share" in the toolbar at the bottom and press "Enable WiFi File Receiver".
Step 4:
On the Transformer (the file sender), open File Expert too. Long press on the folder or file you want to send, scroll to the bottom and select "Send via WiFi". It will search the WiFi network for a few seconds and should find the other device (phone). Accept any confirmations on the phone/Transformer and the files will directly stream over WiFi.
Notes:
+ This does NOT require an internet access, so if you are on the train or somewhere without internet, you can still do the transfer.
+ It is totally secure as long as you use a password on the WiFi hotspot.
+ I need to test if it matters which device sets up the WiFi hotspot, or which device is doing the file sending/receiving or if you really need to press Enable file receiver in the receiving device. This process will hopefully simplify to allow you to simply click a shortcut to wifi hotspot activation and the other device will automatically connect if WiFi is turned on - then hopefully just open File Expert on the sender device and it will send. This info will come or you can try for yourselves.
+ If your phone cannot do the device hotspot, look in the market as I think there are apps for it, Froyo has this built in so I didn't need any extra app.
+ This is the ONLY WiFi direct method I have found that works for me with my phone and transformer, the apps that claim to create FTP servers where you type in ports and things do not work properly in the android browser, only on your PC/Laptop browsers.
+This is faster than Dropbox because you are not hindered by your upload and then download speed connections.
Please test and see what you think
Good find. Works great for me........
Thank goodness for this, Ive been using bluetooth and it is SLOOOOOOOW, great find. Cheers.
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.
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.
one word, Teradesk. I am using it to transfer files over phone, transformer and pc..

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.
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.
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.

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.
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.

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.
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.
I have just used SwiFTP and it works fine for this purpose. And it is free.

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
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.
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.
