Slow FTP Transfers - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey Guys,
I'm having a little problem with this FTP Server app. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=lutey.FTPServer
Everything runs smoothly but when it comes to an upload From my PC to the Phone. (Phone downloading) The transfer speed is very volatile and overall very slow. (70kb/s to 230kb/s)
When I download stuff from my Phone. (so Phone uploading) it is approximately 5 times as fast. (1000kb/s) I have fiddled around with leaving the screen on but it didnt change the transfer speeds.
Interestingly this only happens when the Phone downloads. I'm using a Galaxy S4 by the way.

Networking Cababilities

Hey all...
I was messing about with a VNC Client / Viewer now, and its extremely slow, is there a reason for this?
I mean to get view of the entire desktop, which is not on a big resolution, it took about a minute, if I left it alone, I could see stuff happening, like every 2 seconds.
I am @ the office, and we have one PC playing music the whole time, it has a VNC Server on it. I am trying to control the PC from my JASJAR, but I cant bcos of the slowlness.
The Winamp counter changes every 2 seconds, is there a way to speed this up?
Also @ home, I connect through the wifi to my pc, which has movies shared on it, now obviously encoded for a PC not a PPC, some movies play for a minute or so and then buckle with lag, some lag right away, is this possibly bcos of throughput from the network or just simply bcos im on a PPC and it cant decode fast enough??
Thanks in advance.

Excessive Buffering w/ORB. Someone Help?

Alright I have been all over this board and I a have been all over other sites and even on ORB's website itself and I can't figure out what the deal was. Even after searching here I couldn't actually find anyone that had the same issue. So, the issue is I get excessive buffering all the time but only on Wifi, Edge buffers but not nearly as much. I have tried all the little tricks, set the speed down to 64k and even though it looks like crap it still buffers maybe every five seconds. Ideally I would like to use the HTC Streaming app, but it says failed to connected no matter what connection I am using. I can get TCPMP to work, but like I said every five seconds it buffers even after cranking the buffer size up to 5400 K. Windows Media is the same way, just buffers every five seconds. Sometimes it works fine on Edge and sometimes it doesn't I get that it is dependant on signal and all that, what is just irritating me is the Wifi part of it, there isn't any reason it should buffer that much. So if anyone can help I would greatly appriciate it. Thanks
Orb Excessive Buffering
I have the same problem if use the calculated bit rate. Forcing it to 64k works for me using cell signal but only if I have a strong signal. Using wifi, the problem goes away if the rate is set to 320k.
try changing you PCs upload speed, it should solve your problem, also make sure u have clear signal and are not moving. use the auto test on you PC to measure it upload speed
Spent all day messing around with it, after testing it on my notebook with edge and it working perfectly I determined that it has to be my desktop, some piece of rogue software installed or something that was just killing my upload,download, draining my cpu and eating all my memory. I formated and reinstalled XP, and it seems to work fine over Wifi now, edge is still tricky as it depends on signal and all that fun stuff, but at least I can use it when I go away for work on hotel wifi networks.

I have been using it and it's perfect. Thumbs up.
thanks i will try
if the file is bigger than 1G, can it be saved in my sd card?
out of curiousity .. if u start downloading files onto your phone - is this still covered under the data flatrate?
because even though they say data flatrate I think there actually is a limit isnt there?
wow torrents on mobile..gotta try
I have actually found that winmobile is practically the only one out there. and have been using it successfully for some time now.
It is not without some hiccups though.
1) some torrents will stop short of the 100% mark. but that is work-round-able. extract the partially finished file to your phone, and copy to your bittorrent client and let it finish it off. (ask if you need more info on this)
2) It chews up your battery power! make sure you have charger ready.
3) Dont use up your data allowance, only do it realistically via wifi. Also many Mobile companies will not be too happy seeing you use bittorrent. (supposedly they can tell due to the port you may be frequenting) but via wifi (home/work/starbucks/airport) it will be fine
3a) Make sure you have your phone settings set up so that wifi still works when screen is turned off.
4) Your phone is prone to crashes after using it for more than 30+ minutes (require soft reset via stylus-in-hole-near-battery).. BUT if you keep Wintorrent working in the back ground but you navigate to your today screen (or other) it is fine (taken me ages to work this one out)
5) If using it with your wifi at home, i haven't been able to find a setup that navigates port forwarding/NAT issues (sure there are ways though).
6) Max file download size is around the 1gb in size, above that you may have issues.
7) Obviously only do legal torrents, there is plenty out there.
well regarding the Port Forwarding..u can access your Router control panel and assign Torrent ports to the LAN IP of Xperia.
how can you set it so you can turn off screen, but it still working in background...?
no. 3a
press the start button
press Today
this will take you to your desktop/today screen

[Q] USB Tethering dies off after a while

I'm having a problem with the USB network connection and would appreciate any help to pinpoint the source of this bug.
I've made a similar post here after scanning through endless search results until I noticed the thread dealt about the Samsung Galaxy S III.
So here is the situation:
Enable USB Tethering in your phone
Start some FTP server on your host (in my case Win7 64 and FileZilla freeware FTP server)
Once windows complains it couldn't identify the network, mark it as home network
Start up FolderSync and setup a remote account on your USB-tethered FTP server.
Try to transfer some file to the server via USB tether network
At some point the transfer rate will suddenly stop and no more data is transferred. Both Android and Windows say the connection is still active but no bit can be transferred. After quite a while they say the connection is broken though.
What I tried so far:
Tried with Franco Kernel, Faux Kernel as well as Stock
Other FTP clients like AndFTP have the same problem, but are much slower. FolderSync gives me around 8MB/s.
The transferred test file weighs around 2GB. The most I got so far was 75%, but it always fails at a different position. Sometimes the connection stalls, then it recovers after a few moments, stalls again and then after a while it will die completely.
Any suggestions, ideas, solutions?
I know this thread is really old but... did you find a solution for this? I'm also interested in using the tether interface for file transfer but due to this bug, it's not a feasible method. It's a shame though, I get very good speeds
Btw, I'm on Carbon-rom build 20140629 (KK) with franco kernel r209.
Old thread, but unfortunately without solution.
I'm now running Carbon latest nightly with FauxKernel with recommended tweak settings. It seems to happen not so often with it, but still occurs and the only solution seems to be to unplug and retether.
