Hi all. Just curious if anyone has had success syncing Winamp over Wifi as it claims it can. I've tried on two phones and now the Gtab and all I ever get is FC. Plays local media well, but when I go to the "Enable Sync" is settings.... BOOM! FC.
No one?! No body has used Winamp before?
I haven't tried on the most recent version, but I was able to associate the tablet and use sync without any issues when I tried.
This was about three weeks ago, so probably five different firmwares and one Winamp revision ago.
I'll try it again tonight and see if it's still working.
winamp on windows crashes on me after only a few songs but I do get some.
Thanks. Please let me know. I use it all the time on my W7 laptop, but can't get into the setup for wireless sync on the tablet (or my Hero). I'm bummed, but if someone else has the same issues at least I know it's not just me.
It works great on my Nexus One, haven't tried the Gtablet yet. For reference my PC is running Windows 7 Professional x64.
Are you trying to use your gtab as a wireless remote to play your music on your computer, or play your music from your computer on your gtab over wifi?
If you are trying to use your gtab as a wireless remote I have a pretty cool solution that I use all the time (not with winamp though... sorry). My htpc is connected to my stereo / tv and I sue the gtab as a wireless remote for my music.

I'm on W7 x86. Not sure what the issue could be. Perhaps I didn't set it up properly on the PC side.

I simply want to sync Winamp to the GTab as the app states it can. I'll have to verify the PC setup I guess.
I had to do some tweaking, rebooting and other stuff but I was eventually able to get it to sync to my Sprint Hero and GTablet. I'm on whatever the latest Winamp is now, Win7 x64 Home Premium, and I could get my PC to see both the devices fine; just sending files was the problem. It ended up being that you have to have both the auto-mount AND sync enabled for it to actually send files. Found that on the Winamp forums.
So if you're having a problem just getting it to enable the syncing on your phone, I cannot help. Sorry.

I installed it on my GTab from the market - hit the wi-fi tab in WinAmp and it discovered my SeaGate NAS storage and grabbed all the music from it with the only issue being a couple of Album covers are wrong. I am running TnT Lite 3.1.4...

Ok. I'm going up to TnT 4.10 tonight so I'll reinstall it from the market and see what happens. Thanks. I'll keep ya'll posted.
I can select enable, but when I go to change the settings it FC's
I had been using Winamp for quite some time now. But only running a international radio with no problem.
I love the winamp app, works like a charm! Today I tried the wifi-syncing option, but it won't work on my X10i. Milestone works perfectly, but with my X10i, Winamp can't even recognize it as my X10, just a wifi android device. And it keeps telling me I don't have enough free space, even worse, it tells me 0MB (0%)/0MB... Anyone else having this problem? Couldn't find anything on the web about this problem
I got it to work fine.
Have synced both over WiFi and USB. Seems a bit slow.
One thing I wish they allowed you to do is select the destination for the synced files. I want to put my media on the external SD.
I might post something on their support forum about that.
Deleting pmp_wifi.ini from %appdata%/roaming/winamp did the trick for me when my pc couldn't discover the winamp on my android. After restarting winamp on your pc, you should be able to see and pair with your devices.
Thanks for the "enable auto-mount" trick! My winamp would get stuck after a few songs. Looks like it's going for the whole 12 gigs now. :laugh:
Edit: winamp crashed again, even with automount enabled. Still searching for a solution..
When I try to stream music to my device via the Zune pass it now tell me that my live id may not be working or to sync it again. But I'm at work so I don't have access to a computer right now any suggestions? It was working fine last night

Ok i've been trying to connect wirelessly to my laptop for more than an hour now. I do every step and when it comes to "to to usb connectivity and click on laptop name and then connect" it just hangs on connecting on the phone.
On PC it says that PC Companion will move to next step automatically when connecting is done. So, what I am doing wrong? Laptop is with Win8.

I take it you have wifi turned on and connected to the sane router as your computer, can I ask what you are trying to do because there are loads of app if you are trying to transfer files from phone to computer which root isn't needed

Edit: one other thing you can always use/try is a wireless adb install/push from Google play depending how good you do knowledge is
Adb install (location on computer) sdcard0 (or 1 for sd card) \ I think it is
But have a read about it because you can even get a log cat from it
Edit 2 something like this

Well you have lot of options to minimize opening of flaps.
First of course try to fix wifi network between xperia and router. Check for DHCP settings, try using WDS option if you have it.
I would also check if phone is recognised in windows networking.
there is an app on playstore that should work and prolly lot of them on pc
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.smarterdroid.wififiletransfer&hl=en
You could get cheap dock and use it for sync and charging, you just change usb from charger to pc
Bluetooth transfer.
What should I check regarding DHCP? Also how can I check if my laptop is recognizing my phone?
It IS recognizing it when it's connected via usb.
I'm looking for DK26 dock but it looks like everywhere is out of stock or not delivering to my country. There are only overpriced sellers 40pounds + PP

Okay so your laptop is connected wirelessly and your phone is connected wirelessly with then same router?
If you install a adb wireless open/run as I have said in Op, enable debugging and then open adb and type adb connect "your phone's ip which the app on your phone will say"
Now does it say connected or failed if it says connected then type adb devices and you should get back your device adb code, if this works then I am wondering if your firewall software is blocking PC Companion to connect but I personally don't use PC Companion as long as adb works and a wifi transfer then that is all you need because in the incident that you need to use Senior flashtool that is done via cable
By the looks you are in the UK as well I have had a nightmare to get a Sony dk26 dock just keep trying because I bought mine Monday when they came back into stock but then by the time I had paid they had sold out again so I got one just in time

Just tried it and it also hung for a while but just leave it and for a while and it then worked.

I had it working only one day, don't know what happened now I can't pair it wirelessly with PCC.
The Sony PCC write a file in the root of SD with the name of your PC when you do the pairing, delete it and retry. Also sometimes the procedure is very long I remember with other Xperia sometime it took almost 10/15mn to get it done.
If you want a third party app there is Filepush (here on xda and play store) that transfert file over wlan but only in one direction PC > Devices.

What is the size of the file in SD with your PC name wrote by PCC?
My file is 0.00kb. I've deleted it and I will try again as soon as i come home.

Ok, I just tested under ADB and its unable to connect.
I looked on internet and it looks like its router problem, port forwarding and stuff like that, the main problem is that I don't know how to forward port in my Netgear WNR2000
So if anyone can help me i would be very grateful.
Thanks to everyone that helped me so far. It looks like if i forward port 8000 it will work.

okay so you turn adb app on and it gives you a ip address to enter e.g 192.168.8.6:5555 then you are now trying to connect on the laptop to it: adb connect 192.128.8.6:5555

Yes, and its unable to connect.
I connected it to other router and it worked, but I dont know why its not working on netgear...
Well it looks like Pc Companion may be problem, I never use official programs because they mostly do not work good, like samsung kies for example.
However I tried this program I already suggested to you:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/d...transfer&hl=en
The program works just like it should without problems, maybe you could give it a go to check if its working for you.
Or you may use some other app that behaves similiar, and add that network location to your windows for faster access sync.

Airdroid is even better, it works amazing.
I paired my Xperia Tablet Z in less than 5 minutes same setting as usual, then tried to pair my Xperia Z, no way!
Don't know why mobile doesn't work while tablet does...
here is my 2 cents.. looks like I am resurrecting a dead thread. I tried to connect my tab Z with wifi.. I read the instruction clearly I think it says that the computer must be connected to router wired. Anyhow I tried connecting with network configuration. On 4.1.2 and 4.2.2 I could connect it to router both with wifi.. upgraded to 4.4.2 its a no go. I get
this.
Is there anyway to mount this phone as a mass storage device?. My work computer is very limited and locked down. With previous Samsung and apple phones I was always able to plug into my work pc and transfer over pictures because is mount the phone. Now I am not able to do that.
Any suggestions?

I think the only reason you need sync manager is the htc driver for Windows to recognize the phone. When I plugged mine in without it, I got the notification "device not recognized" but with it it said "installing driver" which then let me explore it like a drive. I'm sure you could find the driver somewhere on xda though if you can't install sync manager I'm not sure if you could install an external driver...
You could always just do Bluetooth transfer no?

Does the computer not have Bluetooth or something? I ask because I transferred pictures to my PC by Bluetooth last week so I know it can work.
A bit OT, but unless it was jailbroken no apple product will let you drag pictures onto it like a usb drive. So I'm assuming yours was in which case you can bypass the need for a driver. Anyway, how about Dropbox? I use that frequently too and it works great for pictures (or anything really). Plus you don't have to install anything on the PC.

Ever since JellyBean, I have not been able to mount any Android device as Mass Storage, plus I read it has to do with the JellyBean system itself rather than the device. So in short, no, you cannot, unless there's a third party application for that.

Sorry if I'm missing some trick to airdroid, but in the above post Op said they could only access one website on the computer - I. E. The phone can't be paired because the computer won't accept the airdroid website, and there may not even be an identical wifi network from the sounds of it anyway.

Hmm.. sounds like a tricky situation.. Maybe the OP can create an ad-hoc network from the cell phone and use that to transfer files? I'm not sure if it'll work never tried it, just thinking out loud?

Possible, though I really doubt the computer could connect to an ad hoc wifi network based on the info so far. Without bluetooth I think you're out of luck for file transfer on that computer with the One...Except of course the old awkward standby: email

So, I did everything with the pairing tool, and it worked the first time.
Played a bunch of games with it.
Today I got my mhl to hdmi, and when trying to connect the ps3 controller to play games on the TV, the app won't detect my phone.
It just says looking for controllers and never finds it.
I looked at the pairing tool again, and the phone Bluetooth address is still the master.
Any tips?
