How do I get sshfs (or sshfs-like functionality) on a CM10 ROM? Is there a how-to somewhere? (I have searched, but maybe my Google-fu isn't strong enough)
I'm currently running NexusHD2-JellyBean-4.1.2-CM10 v1.3a on my HD2 (thanks!) and have tested browsing and playing media files stored on a Samba server - this works fine using ES File Explorer and MX Player.
But - my main file server is set up to only export files via ssh (and I want to keep it that way), on other systems I use sshfs to access it.
If not sshfs, is there a file eplorer with built-in sshfs functionality available? (I've tested a few, but they all just seem to have FTP over ssh functionality, not sshfs. I do not want to copy the files to my HD2, just stream them.)

Does anyone know where HTC Audio Manager v2 stores the playlists? Or ideally a link to a current user guide for the Audio Manager application?
The previous versions used to store playlists in the directory /application data/HTC/AudioManager_Eng/playlists. It was possible to copy the file to PC and manually edit (albeit tricky).
The latest version no longer seems to store playlists anywhere obvious - so must be embedded in a database somewhere. I want to be able to copy the playlists to the PC (and ideally amend / import into Windows Media Player).
Can anyone help?
Cheers
im trying to stream an avi file from a computer to the phone. i was successful streaming between 2 computers. some missing apis from windows mobile are preventing me from making this work, notably createremotethread,and the backup software permissions on the createfile function.
my file gets transferred in chunks from the computer to the phone. on the phone, i call the createfile() function,with all the share read and write permissions. i then start streaming the data from the computer to the file,which works great. now,if i try to open this file with a directshow player while data is streaming and filling up the file,the player is unable to open the file/get a valid handle,even though i have set the right permissions to grant it access. if i release the handle on my file, then the directshow players can access the file and play it properly.
Now i thought then ill just transfer the header and a little data,release the handle,let the player begin playing, then open my file again and continue streaming the data. Well, after the file is open by the player,i can no longer get a valid handle to the file.
in desktop windows, i could have used the backup program permissions to get access to a file even if its locked, or createremotethread and unlock a locked file. none of those are available to windows mobile. what to do?
Hi there,
If you are familiar with winmo 6.5 then no doubt that you would have had resco explorer installed and perhaps utilised the network section. What some of may or may not know is that once you created your network links so to speak to your LAN, you could then export that as a proper folder in the normal directory. This was really handy for streaming media files via any media player as you could just go straight to the folder, as it would be in the windows dir.
I wondered if there was some sort of counterpart for android. So far I have used ES file explorer which is great but when trying to play any media type it adopts for its own or tries to download it, which is not what I want. AndroXplorer can creat shortcuts to network folders but the shortcuts cant be moved to the android root dir.
Hope you can understand this, any ideas or suggestions would be very welcome! Thanks again.
Hello
I need to edit some HTML files on my tablet.
I know that we can't open a local HTML file in the browser. Only with HTML Viewer, but without javascript.
Is it possible to install a local server, as a workaround ?
Thank you for your help.
I can recommend you Dolphin Browser HD. It is not freeware, but it is the only one with which I could open local html files on my other device (i think there is a demo version if you don't want to pay. well, everyone knows what to do when they don't want to pay). And I think you can install pretty much any linux disto in chroot but you need root access first.
Hi! all. recently i have this problem copying large video files from windows explorer to the iconia. everytime i copy & paste a large file such as 1 or 2gb, windows explorer will stop functioning & restart. i notice that small files such as pix & mp3 do not have this issue. but if a folder that is 1gb in size with lotsa pix or music in it is transfered, the same thing will occur. i tried wifi file transfer but it keeps getting disconnected halfway & i have to redo the whole process again. anyone can help?
What I recommend is getting ES File Explorer from, the market, its free. Then share, say your home folder over the network in windows, as ES can access Samba file share. Then copy and paste within ES instead of your computer not only does it work wonderfully, but you aren't tethered to your home computer and you don't have to use Acers terrible driver Lemme know if it works.
Even easier, withthe File Expert (free), yuu don't have to have a permanent network share, it has a web interface for transfering to and from the tablet. It also has root access, so no need for a separate root explorer.
same with es on root access. I find sharing a folder easier for me, but thats just me.
