Help.
I'm on CM11 for D802. I've been trying to transfer my video files of .avi extension to the phone and everytime it reaches near the end it'd freeze and says the phone is not otherwise detected, for some reason.
I went into the phone and find the files there though, only that they all show 133:00:00 or something like that. Basically they're with wild playback time while the file might only be less than 20 minutes.
Is there a way to resolve this? Thanks!

Hey guys.
I live in Australia, I have the Telstra-stock i9000T. Ended up rooting it and putting on the NZ "Telecom" version with HSDPA / NextG 850Mhz capabilities, because Telecome released 2.2 Froyo MUCH MUCH sooner than Tesltra bothered to do.
The phone has been running great ever since - and I only mentioned the above because before rooting it, i was able to watch 2GB-sized files of .mp4 videos without a hitch...now it seems i can't even TRANSFER them onto my device.
Whether i connect the USB and try and connect via 'mass storage' or 'kies' and copy/paste the video to my SD card (Sandisk 16GB SDHC, bought new), it just says it cannot copy. i USE Win7, if it gives me a timeframe to transfer (usually doesn't, so hard to tell if its working or not), it says 11-12 hours, which is insane, as at work, can take between 20-30 mins MAX to transfer a 2-3gb file. The audio file attache dis H264, or a common playback that IS normally compatable with this phone, so thats not the issue...
What its now doing, which it didn't before when i was able to transfer and play without a hitch - was it now asks to transfer and CONVERT to a playable format, or just transfer over knowing it may not work? No matter which option i select, it wont transfer over. I am still able to transfer smaller files, pictures, etc. Has anyone encountered this problem, or can suggest a way of fixing this?
PHONE DETAILS (after Telecom NZ flash)
Firmware: 2.2
Baseband: I9000TDOJP1
Kernel: 2.6.32.9
EDIT/UPDATE: Put the SDHC card into a USB reader, plugged into PC and transferred mp4 video files that way - the videos are recognised and play to perfection, so i am led to believe its an issue with Kies or the transferring of certain files to this phone when its turned on and in USB mode. The USB cable is the one that comes with my original package so i really dont know what the problem could be, i've only recently flashed a new copy of Win7 Ultimate 32 bit, so i doubt that comes into play... any thought?

Anyone at all?

This is happening to me, now I am unable to flash and my phone is messed up now.
I havent got to that point myself, probably should look into this next. I'm selling it shortly in favour of the SGS2.

No one else?
I would dump/remove kies and then just install the latest/correct USB drivers, unless you have a real need for kies?
I would turn on USB debugging and connect to my PC that way. It's much simpler than trying to go via Kies (which I don't bother using any more).

I might uninstall and reinstall the drivers, the problem still occurs whether i use Kies ir not, i prefer not to use the software either - its easier directly dealing the the files in question.

So far I've tried plugging my phone into my computer, but data rates were around 5Kbps. Then I tried using allshare, but no configuration of software and settings on my computer worked (tried boxee, WMP and WMC, as well as Samsungs media share program). I could never even see my computer listed as a server that I could play from. Finally I dug out my micro to standard SD converter and plugged it into my computer, but upon transfering the video I got a "Semaphore timeout period has expired" error.
Ideally I would like to get streaming to work, but I'll take anything at this point. I just want to lie in bed and watch some movies. Any Ideas?
You may need to reformat your sd card. It may take awhile since it already has issues but back it up on the computer, pop it back in the phone, format it, then put it back in the computer and restore everything.
Is there a way to stream/play videos to my Nexus 7 from my phone(HTC Thunderbolt). Due to the storage limitation on the Nexus 7, I figured this might be a good solution to get around it. I want to be able to stream the media without connecting to a network/router because I spend a lot of time commuting.
I've successfully connected to my phone by FTPing using 3G/4G by tethering my phone to the tablet. I can stably transfer files at 2-2.5 MB/s which sure as hell beats Bluetooth and should be adequate to stream videos. Using ES File Explorer, I've connected to my phone using the same method and it lets me play files directly off my phone using the MX Player. Great.
Of course it's not that easy or else I wouldn't have my this thread. When I try to seek it gives me an error, "Sorry, video cannot be played". The message is persistent once it shows up and the only way to fix it is to reconnect to the network.
Any ideas on how I can get around this limitation? I can't imagine I'm the only one who's attempted to do something like this. Thanks.
I installed samba filesharing (in play store) onto my Galaxy S (CM9). This allows you to access your phone's storage while tethered by wifi to it. No router is required. For playing the video I use BS Player. Seeking works well and even 720p mkv runs without a problem.
Great! I'll give that a try and report back with the results. Thanks!
edit:
It works! I simply installed Samba Filesharing on my phone then with my tablet tethered scanned using the LAN settings on ES File Explorer. Works like a charm. Thank you so much!
Hello,
I have imito mx2 with fineless 2.0 rom,
I use es explorer and to stream videos from my computer to my stick that connected to tv.
When i open a movie (that is located on my pc), the video player (vlc, mx ,mobo,dice , i've tried all of them) stop working after approx. 15 minutes with no error, just stop the movie and i have to reload it again.
When i copy the movie to the stick everything is working fine, so its not a problem with the video player.
the wifi connection is strong signal and the the internet should be enough for a movie (download of 10mbps, so it can't be the problem.)
I just thought that maybe the wifi stop for few seconds and return, but because it happens all the time in almost specific time (after 13-15 minutes) its not reasonable.
I'll glad to hear your suggestion how to solve it.
Thanks

Have you tried using XBMC? If not, recommend you try that using an advancedsettings.xml which forces buffering.
you might want o check the WMM/QoS settings on your wireless router, enable WMM and set the QoS policy for your specific device.
You could also use Mount Manager or any other similar program and mount your Pc shared folders as local drives. I'm doing that with my mx2 and Mx-Player and works perfectly and immediately, not needing to download to a temp file like Es explorer do.
hey guys.
i just tried copying an avi file from my pc to the phone. i had already selected Media device (USB 3.0) in the pull down menu.
first it disconnected as it had initially first connected via Media device (MTP) and then reconnected and brought the auto play dialogue up. after a few seconds it disconnected itslef again and then reconnected. it seems to randomly want to disconnect and reconnect when it wants to.
even while it was apparently still reconnected, i tried to copy a file over to it and it first said i might not be able to play the file did i want to copy it anyway, i clicked yes, then it says the device has either stopped responding or has been disconnected even though it still appears to be connected.
if i switch back to MTP it still warns about maybe not playing the file but then after clicking to still copy across, it copies fine.
i am running windows 7. i have used this usb 3.0 port fine with a usb thumb stick i have. also, windows says it has installed the device successfully when i click over to usb 3.0.
so.... any ideas why it randomly wants to dis/re connect? and why will it not copy across even when it appears connected?
thanks guys.

Make sure you have the latest Samsung USB drivers on your PC. If you think you do, I would go to the device manager and uninstall your phone from the device list and then let it reinstall the drivers. Downloading Kies 3 also installs the drivers on your PC.

thanks mate but i have already tried them.
it does charge fine so i'm not sure whether it is a power issue but the issue of it disconnecting must have something to do with not transferring anything over even though it still appears connected when i am trying.
i read somewhere that due to it's quicker data transfer, the pc and device need to send much quicker signals to each other to let them know that they're still attached. by using an extension lead inbetween the device and usb 3.0 socket i was delaying that signal sufficiently to make the pc keep thinking the phone wasn't attached anymore. i removed the extension lead and sure enough it copied across fine.
the odd thing is that both a usb thumb drive and my 2tb backup external HDD work fine over the extension. maybe the note 3 is slower at sending that signal to start with? dont know but it now works.
