Dose Samsung have anything built it so we can transfer files from pc to phone via wifi?
Looking at airdroid but u need to use a web address (or ip) to login, on the sony z1 it was all built it so u could add the sd/internal storage on your pc (come up like a hard drive on your lappy)
Cheers guys hope that all makes sense

Is there a way to connect my x10 to my PC to enable disk use. When I connect use to connect my N95 to my PC. I was able to click on drive and be able to view files and add files by dragging and dropping. When I connect my x10 it comes up with the prompt "please insert disk". Has anyone had this problem?

You need to click 'Mount Drive' on the X10 when the USB is connected to the PC. The X10 sends a notification when it detects that it is connected to a PC.

Or you can also use DropBox, but it uses the cloud.
You can't... Install Parallel's and load a Windows Virtual Machine. Samsung says its coming... SOMEDAY...

all i want is a wired file transfer i dont give a crapola about mounting it
This is a good workaround.. I have a Mac so how you do the first part on a PC you'll need to find a solution.
1. Rip the movie with Handbrake to your preferred resolution
2. Download a App from the market called Software Data Cable
3. Download Filezilla
The app gives you all the info needed to connect over wi-fi and once its set up transfer any file to any directory.. Its sweet
download the Samsung keis software for mac

I'm having the same issue. I'm on a PC. My PC gives me a confirmation tone when the device is plugged up to the USB port, but no drive letter for the device comes up. How do I go about transferring documents to my Tablet from my PC?
I've already downloaded & installed the USB drivers from Samsung's site:
http://www.samsung.com/us/support/downloads/GT-P7510MAYXAB
I got it working now. I just happen to see a notification that USB Debugging was enabled.
After disabling it, it's working as it should.
Yeah, disabling USB debugging let me connect via USB. You might have to unplug and then replug in your galaxy tab.
Hello,
I've a network drive connected to my router. I can access those files using a laptop or a desktop but can't acces the drive using Android. So is there a way to do that if yes? Then please help me out.
Thank you.

Try ES File Explorer. It should work with FTP and CIFS (Windows File Sharing Shares) servers.
Thank you for the help but It doesn't work tried it earlier.
Please any other ideas?
Thank you.!
P.s- I've a Belkin router.
Sent from my C5302 using xda app-developers app
I have messed with the Belkin routers a bit. They use NAS, and I think in E-File explorer you should select LAN and scan for the server.
Try root File Explorer,but u must root ur device first
Yeah tried it but failed it says no servers found.! So I don't know what do I do. Can you explain me a bit?
Thank you
Sent from my C5302 using xda app-developers app
act accordingly;
in ES file explorer tap on the cell pic on the top left side then select Network and go to LAN. Tap on New and in the opened window in the Server field enter the ip address of the PC connected to network through which you want to connect to network, and also you should enter your username and password of the PC too. click OK and you should be fine using created access point.
Yeah I tried that but the HDD is connected to the router no the pc!

First dumb suggestion: make sure phone is connected to the right wifi/network.
Less dumb question: what model router is it? and are you sure it supports samba and the file system you have the drive formatted to? and make sure it shows up on a PC.
Reason i make these suggestions:
I have a Technicolor TG582n, which has a USB port for doing just this, sadly, however, it only supports FAT32, so if the drive is formatted in anything else such as EXT3 or NTFS, it simply wont work. Another step i have to take is to set up the router to use the drive, by going to the webgui and initialising it (setting it to managed)
Another thing would be to check is if it's not actually sharing the drive over a different protocol such as DLNA/UPnP, in which case, you want an app such as UPNPlay from the market to view the share on your router. though mine also supports SMB so it shows up as TECHNICOLOR\ on my Root Explorer and in the network computers on the computer.
Hope this helps you get to the bottom of it.
Thanks a lot for your help!

i dont really understand the main point sir,
do i need to get files in the drive using the network? laptop to android?
instal the apk and follow the step
So now small things start to piss me off ATM.
There is this glorious Xperia Transfer app which should easily transfer my data from one phone to another.
So I start it and I select SMS and Bookmarks and Call Log, since these are the only things which I wan to transfer.
So I do it and after I plug the Z5 this amazing PCCompanion says it will transfer everything BUT NOT SMS and not Bookmarks.
Anybody did this before? It's f.... annoying.
It worked flawlessly for me phone to phone.

Me too, no issues with transfer. I only did SMS/MMS and Call Logs also. Actually I did it once from Z2 to Z5 and again from Z5 to Z5 again and everything transferred fine. I used the cloud method both times.
But you mean Xperia Transfer Mobile?
And what is Cloud exactly in this context?
The Mobile app was ridiculous too because it got my Z2 stuck with lack of memory.
Because this cannot let you choose what you want to do BEFORE.
Edit:
Well looks like the cloud one worked!
Is this data located somwhere so I can erase it after?
I used Xperia Transfer mobile to transfer stuff from my Nexus 5 to my Z5 and it worked flawlessly. I did it over wi-fi
Mine worked flawlessly on my old Galaxy S3
Mine worked fine with Cloud option.
With PCCompanion it could't copy my smses.
NFC was also problematic because of the file size created on my Z2...
Anyway success in the end.
Thanks guys!

You will get notice when it's deleted, I think it stays a week or two and then is automatically purged.

Actually in the end it told me the files are there till 25th Nov
Lumia 1020 to Z5, didn't work [Got stuck on Step 3 where it kept checking sending phone], had to transfer contacts using some random app from Appstore which pulled data through Bluetooth.
For me, it worked as it said, but I need to backup and restore my apps with data. I couldn't do it without root. Anyone?
Sent from my E6603 using Tapatalk
What your old phone? Xperia Transfer seems work only for Android phones. For more effective file transfer between different, I found MobileTrans is pretty good one. It supports Android, iOS, Windows and Blackberry phone.
Can anyone suggest an app that will allow me to copy my SD data from my old phone onto the Essential over the air? I thought Google's File Go would work, but it seems to restrict which files I can transfer directly, phone to phone. i need access to files beyond the 6 categories File Go offers. I'd like to stay away from any kind of wiring or PC use. Thanks.
Dropbox seems to be a solution. I still would appreciate additional input. Thanks.

You can take an ADB backup... Which should copy everything on device to computer...
If you are rooted... You can do it via wireless ADB

I'm using an app called HandShaker...work fine for me...
X-plore file explorer will transfer over wifi sharing.
You might want to check into an app called superbeam. It uses wifi to transfer as well and you can use it afterward to transfer files from your PC to your phone and from your phone to PC.
