Android :: Wireless File Sharing Application?
Apr 5, 2009I noticed an app on the market a couple of weeks ago that allowed you to share files with your PC wirelessly but can't find it now. Any idea what it's called? It's a paid app.

View 8 RepliesThere are many file sharing apps in market.
Which do you like or recommend for private file sharing over the internet?
This app allows you share file from android phone with any users my sms/email/link.
How it works:
1. Upload file to server.
2. Get link for file and send its by sms or email from application.
This is just beta. I am looking for any proposals and feedbacks. Download Send big files the easy way. Files too large for email attachments?
Current limitations: 50MB per user and 10MB per file. Also, because the server is running in test mode, files and accounts may be lost.
Like the title implies, I'm looking for an app that will browse cifs/smbfs shares on any given WiFi network you connect to. I want to be able to move word documents and the like from the sdcard to network shares, or vice versa, so that I don't need to carry a USB cable with me wherever I go.
Also I'd also like to know if there's an app that would install a server on the phone to enable other PC's on the network to connect to my phone via CIFS/SMBFS so I can browse/modify the files directly on it without having to copy it to the computer first.
I have problem about sharing files between win7 and my sensation wirelessly. I have no modem to connect my pc and and phone together, because i use phone's internet connection on my pc, so i don't need a modem. Because of this, i can't find my way to reach files on my computer using my phone. I set a wireless network on my pc, but android phones does not find the network i created ( i thing something with b/g/n ). Is there any way possible?
Actually what i want to do is playing movies on pc's harddrive, on my sensation using es file explorer or else..
In order to share data between one of my own Android service and an application i am looking for the best way to do this. I have seen the shared memory drivers inside the GNU Linux kernel, but no Java api. Maybe the specific Google IPC Blinder cad be used for my need ?
View 10 Replies View RelatedThe code I am trying to implement includes a service and an application. When the application is first launched, it starts the service using the
startService(svc_name) call. Here svc name is an intent pointing to the class that runs the service.
I want to share a resource(file/socket connection) between the service and the application. For example one writes to a file and another reads from it. I am unable to get proper sync between the service and app. Could you please let me know how this can be achieved?
As soon as I plugged the USB cable in the computer it started installing PC Companion, this all installed correctly. I cannot open the file sharing option the only time its will open is when the phone is not connected, so I do this then connect my phone and thats it nothing else.
I go on Media Go and I just cannot transfer any files over to my phone the only transfer option I get is to put it into another folder. My sd card that comes with the phone will keep saying unavaliable. Now I am not normally slow at working phones but this has me completely stumped.
I plan the weekend trip. My friend ask me to share the photo while trip. I can take the picture with my smartphone, and 3G internet connection is available on my phone. Is there a photo sharing application?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm working on some apps for the android platform and I have two problems that I'm not quite sure how to approach, and both are closely related.How can I send a relatively small data file from one android device to another (preferably over the internet or directly through wireless network)?Is it possible to create a temporary p2p live data stream from one android device to another? An example application would be to stream low-res video from phone A's camera to phone B, or audio.I would much appreciate being pointed in the right direction on either issue (File transfer or real time data transfer).

He wants to try and get swype onto his HTC by downloading mine. If he does this, will Swype allow it to be downloaded onto two phones or will they stop it?

View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm looking for an app to transfer files to and from my HTC Desire and MacBook. I am currently doing it via an FTP Server app, but the big draw back is that it relies on internet upload speeds rather than using a LAN share, so it ends up being a lot slower than USB. I've tried ES File manager as that as LAN connectivity, but I couldn't get it working with my Mac.
On my Nokia N82, there was an app I used to use for this purpose called SymSMB (SymSMB for S60 3rd & 5th Edition by Telexy Networks :: Symbian software @ My-Symbian.com). What this did is allow my Mac too mount the entire SD card (or any folder of choice) from my N82 as a shared folder on my Mac, which was brilliant. Basically like accessing a shared folder on one computer from another. Is there an app that does this on Android?
I am new to the Android SDK. Is there a way to share files from my Android app, so that it can be accessed by another computer using WiFi? Is there support for something like SMB?
(Android version on phone is 1.6)
the gmail app on the DINC does not support video and pic sharing? m I missing something here. When you take a vid and go to share, gmail comes up as one of your options. If you proceed down this route, you don't get an error, but the vid never gets attached and delivered. The only way to do this is through the HTC Mail app. On this same note, another gripe I have is why Android lists the sharing options if you can't actually use them to share. You can't share a video over Handcent/Messaging Apps...so why show them as options for sharing? You can't upload to facebook directly, so why list them as an option. Seems like a glaring issue that will confuse newbies (my wife) and may ultimately affect their adoption of the platform. I'm all for the customization and openness of Android, but they need to work out these little quirks if they want to capture any respectable market share.

For example, even though I have sync for everything on my account turned off, my calendar still showed up on my wife's phone until I disabled it in the calendar app. Also, I can't remove my Google Talk account from her phone so my messages show up on her phone.
This is on a pair of stock Samsung Galaxy S3 phones.
Is there a way to perform wireless file transfers between a PC and the Incredible? I tried SamrtStor DLNA and Twonky Server - neither worked. Any help from personal experience is appreciated!

View 5 Replies View RelatedI've got an app that accepts images from the image gallery (via share menu). My app starts, and I do this:
Bundle bundle = getIntent().getExtras();
Object obj = bundle.get("android.intent.extra.STREAM");
While debugging, Eclipse is reporting the object obj is of type 'Uri@StringUri' (???) and inside it somewhere is the string 'content:
//media/external/images/media/992'.
Anybody know what type of object obj is so I can typecast it? And what's the string about? IE, how do I get to the image data?

Second, whats the best app for O/C. Im rooted but running a stock rom and would kinda like to leave it at that but still want a little better performance. I have removed some of the bloatware but dont know where to go from here.
View 7 Replies View RelatedThe main reason i wanted a rooted phone was so i could connect to my laptops ad hoc network and use a program for wireless keyboard and mouse. i cant really afford the real thing at the moment and with my laptop hooked up to my flat screen its kind of necessary to have..
So ive rooted my phone and tried a few roms. currently i have this one: [ROM] [05/18/2010] Tainted Vanilla V1.4 OVERCLOCKED - xda-developers
I always run into the same problem though. wired or wireless, i cant get it to connect right. wired never works in any way but i dont really care about that. wireless however shows some signs of working. it shows some data has been sent, not received though. and my computer will detect and connect to it, but seems to lose the signal after a few moments. when i bring up a browser it doesnt even look like something might load. it just says im offline. could someone help me with this?
The other part of this problem is i really just want to connect to my computers ad hoc network and use a wireless keyboard and mouse program. none of them seem that great unfortunately.. recommendations are appreciated. but my biggest issue is that i cant seem to connect to an ad hoc network. i believe my phone detected it only once while i was on the "white widow" rom, but could never quite connect..
I'm am creating an Android application, but in order to have one of the functionalities working I need to read a predefined xml file whilst only knowing its name, not the R.id..
In normal Java I know I can use

But using the limited Android SDK thats not working, any knows how to solve this?
Can someone please tell me where I'm going wrong with this piece of code? Basically I want the app to download a .png file, display it to the user and also save it to the sd card for future reference. It seems to be all going fine until the while ((len = webstream.read(buffer)) > 0) part; as the debugger doesn't reach the breakpoint I've put in here, and I have a directory of empty .png files. I have the WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE permission declared in my Manifest.......

I'm developing an image editor application for Android. I have a big problem: I haven't a mobile with Android. I found a person that helps me to test the application and I found many problems. The application works in the emulator perfectly but in the mobile the application constantly mistakenly ends. I want to print a log similar that the show in ddms in a file on the SDCard. I did it with a FileWriter but it isn't the same that I can see in ddms.
Is it possible to show the same output as ddms in a file?
If not possible I would like to get as much information as possible. The person who has the mobile don't have knowledge of programming and I have not got close.
I want to create a file out side the application and memory card. How to create it? I know how to create it under application but how to create it outside the application?
