Benchmark Testing:
File used to test = 1,120 MB (Copied from AXON 7 to PC)
Device files are copied to: Patriot Torch 120GB SATA3 with 545 MB/s sequential read performance, and 430 MB/s sequential write performance.
Storage Device inside AXON 7 = USF 2.0(Speeds based off Note7) that has ~482 MB/s sequential read performance, and ~136 MB/s sequential write performance.
USB 2.0 Max speed = 60 MB/s - USB 3.0 Max Speed = 640 MB/s
Transfer via USB type C ("3.0") - USB type A 3.0(PC Port) with QC 3.0 cord that comes with AXON 7:
1,120 MB file transferred in ~10 seconds = 112 MB/s
Transfer via USB type C ("3.0") - USB type A 2.0(PC Port) with QC 3.0 cord that comes with AXON 7:
1,120 MB file transferred in ~35.5 seconds = 31.5 MB/s
Transfer via WIFI ac with EX Files Explorer via FTP:
1,120 MB file transferred in ~70 seconds(1min 10sec) = 16 MB/s
Results:
A: USB transfer is much faster than WIFI ac.
B: At 112 MB/s it surpasses the 60 MB/s limit of USB 2.0 which proves that the AXON 7 makes use of the USB 3.0
C: At 31.5 MB/s via USB 2.0 it transferred at less than 1/3 of the speed it transferred at in USB 3.0.
D: At 112 MB/s it is still not using the full potential of the possible ~482 MB/s that the NAND(UFS 2.0 device storage [64MB]) is said to be capable of.
Conclusion: With having & using USB 3.0 the AXON 7 will transfer files to the PC ~2-3x faster than the OnePlus 3 that uses USB 2.0 & other devices with USB 2.0
Reason for asking question:
The reason I ask this is that I would like to know how to achieve the best transfer speeds possible. I would also like to know if there are finally improvements over previous USB 2.0 connections in other devices. I just find it rather odd that you can get a USB Flash drive with USB 3.0(very high quality 1) and see faster transfer speeds but the(most) smartphones can't seem to accomplish the same.
It just seems odd to have so many things pushing for 4K but having very little support for data transfer speeds to accompany it being useful. Even with 1080p video recordings on the phone in superfine quality at 60fps and recording hours of footage it makes for a lot of information to transfer onto the PC after if you are planning on storing the files to archive them, edit them, and/or upload them after to services like YouTube. Myself being a video creator that uploads to YouTube I am looking for the best options with a device that makes this all much easier. I just don't like having to drag around a big DSLR with me everywhere I go and even with DSLRs they have their limitations like the length of time they can record for and other various issues without having bought the most expensive 1 on the market with tons of expensive additional add-on devices, extra batteries, etc.
Sorry to bother, but what was the speed connection of the AC router?
5 GHz , 325 Mbps (40.625 MB/s) to router(max device connects at).
PC connected via 1,000 Mbps (125 MB/s).
Thanks very much for asking and sorry that I forgot to include that information.

I was considering buying a better miniSD card cause of slllooww transfers to and from the PC, like music and such.
When I enable WM5 Storage, I can run an HDtach benchmark on my PC to see just how fast it is.
I got 0.8 MB/s @ 7ms, which sounds about accurate.
When I plug the card straight into PC, I get 7.5 MB/s @ 1.5ms.
Does everyone get this?
This is with a Cingular 8125, with Faria's AKU 3.3 ROM. Though it's about the same with the stock ROM.
Try this:
Modify the following two reg keys to increase the transfer speed of your memory cards
hklm\drivers\sdcard\clientdrivers\class\mmc_class
hklm\drivers\sdcard\clientdrivers\class\SDMemory_class
And change value of BlockTransferSize from 64 to 128 or 256.
Hope this helps!
Thanks, tried that out. I'm thinking that doesn't help with PC-PPC interface though , just PPC-MiniSD interface.
The fact that 8125 uses a USB 1.1 interface doesn't help any. That only allows for like 1.5 MB/s (12 mbps).
Hi experts I was hoping somebody here could throw some clues my way.
I have a 32A Rogers magic. (rogers HOFO )
I usb mounted the drive, and transferred a movie on there just for fun, and it was really SLOOOOOW , using the 2 gig sandisk microsd card it came with
So I tested the transfer rate, and write was about 3 meg/second. ouch
reads are about 5 meg/second (!)
SO I got an 8 gig type 6 card to solve this problem. I tested it first with a usb card reader, it reads at 16 - 17 meg/second (same usb port)
Put it in the Magic, and I'm back to 3 / 5 again, with the new card too.
The specs say "USB 2.0" - yet this is unbelievably crappy usb transfer rates :-(
I tried my buddy's Dream, it's exactly the same too. 3 / 5
Why? Any clues? Is there something to tweak?
are you using the usb cable that came with it or your own one?
either way, have you tried a different cable?
yes, tried that. And with a whole other phone, computer, and cable ;-)
I just tried it again though, it's the exact same, 3 MB/s write, 5.7 MB/s read on the HTC cable, and the normal one I use.
Why, is yours faster?
Could you use a stopwatch (like www.online-stopwatch.com),
and copy around a 100 or 150 meg .ZIP file to it, and tell me how many seconds it took?
i just transferred a 550mb video clip from my laptop to my phone and it took 1m 28s.
my laptop isn't particularly fast either, so will have had some affect.
Thanks
That's about 6MB/s (550/88), that's better for writes than mine, close to double...
How long does it take to get it back, reading?
59 seconds.
but don't forget my laptop sucks so that time will be a bit high.
9.3 MB/sec still kicks mine. Thanks for checking that out.
This one reads really fast on a card reader, over 16MB/s
I guess it doesn't like Android phones. :-( I don't get it.
What brand / class is your card? Mine's transcend 8GB type 6
mine is the same.
at least, i think it's transcend.
it's certainly 8gb class 6 anyway.
just a thought...
what rom are you using?
the default or a modified one?
The HOFO roms
I've got it up to 8 to 9 MB/s writes, and 6- 7 MB/s reads now
That's exact opposite to yours, lol.
Hi.
There's one question which has not been asked yet (I think) and that's about USB Speed.
When I connect my HTC Touch Cruise to the PC and start a file transfer I get speeds around 250kb/s. What about the new Leo? Is there any improvement?
when syncing mp3s with wmp I get around 2-3MB/s but I haven't tried large files yet. using the included 2gb card of course!
With an A-Data MicroSDHC 8GB class 6, transferring a 680MB file I'm at full speed.
I mean that I'm getting 5-6MB/s!
The transfer speed of the HD2 is a joke when compared to the USB 2.0 specs and the extremely low transfer speeds does not have anything to do with the cards used.
There is a big difference in the speed of ANY card when used with hd2 compared to a card reader. And the truly limiting factor is only the hd2.
When i'm in "disk drive" (not activesync) mode the write transfer speed to the sd card is only about 1.8 MB/s which i think extremely slow. The read speed is only ~3.5 MB/s.
I've tried that with 2 different cards, both 2 GB sandisk.
When i plug them into my PC or notebook using an USB-adapter i have the write speed ~5.5 - 6 MB/s and read is ~ 8-9 MB/s.

So the speed is about 3x higher in any card reader.
Take alook at the following thread:

Don't forget this is going through activesync, which is a protocol that really isn't meant for large file transfers. And that previous phones were only doing a couple hundred kB/s.
Use Disk drive mode when transferring big files. Hits 5MB/s.
@kilrah:
please read my posting above:

OK then, but in that case you're off-topic as the thread was about activesync
Anyway, I can't duplicate that. In disk drive mode I have 4.5MB/s writes and 6.5MB/s reads, similar to what someone else mentioned earlier. With a 8GB class 6 Sandisk card.

Yup, same here; I got fast speeds when not in Activesync and applied tweaks to my Win 7.
It is also notable that unless tweaked, Win Vista and Win 7 copy files poorly (even between 2 different physical hard drives!) so compounded with Activesync, Windows may be contributory factor to the OP's problem.
can anyone let me know if the rom used in the hd effect the speed of the transfer of files when the hd is connected to the pc as mass storage
since i got my replacement phone a few weeks back the sd transfer speed has been sketchy. im getting speeds of 32 kbs and im wondering what the cause is
windows 7 rc
the phone (hardware)
the phone (software)
the cable (my htc cable split so im using others)
the card (sandisk 16gb class 2)
so ive ruled out windows 7 rc as the slow transfer speed in consistant with xp pro home and a retail windows 7
at first i did think is was the cable but ive used a good few to try and see if this is the problem. the pattern of slow transfers run throughout the wires i have
i have tried another card in my phone and i got the same result
this leaves me with two possibilites
the phone hardware (oh and it hs newton rings) is screwed and i need a replacement
or
the phones rom is conflicting with the transfer somehow
can anyone tell me if theyve experienced drastic changes in the transfer speed depending on the rom used
Hi
Since i had a replacement from Orange a few weeks ago everything has been - well faster and without problems - and that is with the stock Rom. Loaded all my old apps and have no complaints. Will measure my transfer speed and let you know.

I've noticed transfer speed from SD to PC has become very slow, but this appears to coincide with some of the latest rom builds or possibly wm6.5.x. If you revert back to a stock rom the transfer speed is back to normal
Well SK Tools tells me the write / read to my Sandisk 16gig card is
Write 803.66 KB/sec
Read 6880.18 KB/sec
With data transfer via the cable to my laptop I used CrystalDiskMark to measure and the results were

To confirm I copied a 150MB film from the HD to to PC and it took 24 seconds.
I don't know if any of this helps but as said before I am happy with the speed.

Micro SD HC 16GB Slow trnasfer speed
This is as confusing as it can get...
i can transfer 10MB under 2-3 seconds... but as soon as i go to transfer a 400MB video file i recored on my Samsung Epic in 720HD mode.. it wants to transfer at like 200KB/Sec.. like what's that about.... so i shoot a quick video... with file size of about 5MB.. and it transfered faster than i could blink.... Are these cards like some how restricted to make our larger file transfers a miserable hell to back up to the computer???
Any help wold be appricaited...
My system specs..
Windows Vista ultimate 64bit
Quad core 3.4Ghz ( That can't be an issues lol)
A gigabit mother board with USB 2.0 and 3.0 ( same results from both)
6GB DDR3 Ram
etc.....
Thax...
its the cable you are using
i tried using other cables to connect my hd to the computer and it is slow
and when i tried with the orignail it was faster
so i think you might need to buy a touch hd usb cable
I'm trying to pull about 40GB of files off my phone. When I transfer the files, its progress moves very, very slowly. After a few seconds of transfer, my SSD's active time goes to 100%, lagging my entire computer to the point that I can't use any programs. My 240GB Intel 520 SSD's response time goes from 0.5 to 1.5 ms response time to 3,000 to 4,000. Transferring files to my HDD's is faster, but still slow. The transfer rate goes min (0mb/s), max (50mb/s), min, max, repeatedly.
The files I'm transferring are split archives of about 50MB each. The USB 3.0 connection uses an Etron USB 3.0 controller. I don't have any trouble transferring files over USB 3.0, except when I use my Note 3. The experience is the same whether I'm transferring from internal phone memory or off its 64gb microSD card. The experience is the same whether the phone is in USB 3.0 mode or USB 2.0 mode.
Has anyone else experienced unexpectedly slow file transfers from their Note 3?
Welcome to the wonderful world of the Media Transfer Protocol.
I still don't know what they were trying to accomplish by removing USB Mass Storage from Android, MTP is a nightmare with anything over 500KB...
It takes me about 22 minutes to copy a 300MB .mp4. From an i7 2.9Ghz 8GB 7200RPM SATA with USB3.0. Even iTunes is quicker, and it has to convert everything!
I realized 70 mbps but only if the target is the internal memory. My sd card was too slow or the card reader in the note is limited.
