I've tried aBTC v1.3 and andTorrent v0.89.3, and aBTC just force closes on me or says "insufficient space" while andTorrent doesn't open the file at all, no matter what I try.
Can anyone point me to a good torrent client? NOT torrent controller, e.g. torrentdroid, BarTor, etc.
Bump? Need help with this...
Only one ive had any success with is andtorrent.
I think the trick is to add all the files you want to download and then start the torrent using the menu interface.
it is a little confusing yes.
Ive tried the others you mentioned and they FC
BUT andtorrent works "good"

I did all the searching I could before posting this so I hope my first thread doesn't turn out to be a fail. Firstly I got root on my phone the other day and installed the Magic image and it works really well!
My question is does anyone know if browser uploads can be enabled somehow through root? I have a torrent server setup at a friends ISP and it would be really nice to be able to upload torrent files to it on the go. Is this currently possible or is there anyone currently trying to get it working?

you might rename this thread to something like Torrent/Browser Uploads .. there may be other people looking for info on this .. i honestly have no clue .. there is only one other thread talking about torrent connections and that's via tethering .. so there could be some connection

happy reading!
I guess I should elaborate, what I am talking about specifically is when you go to a page with an upload form, where you would normally select a file it just says "Uploads Disabled".
I'm not actually trying to do torrents on the phone, I essentially just want to upload a file over the browser.
Have you tried with the steel browser?

Most likely uploads like that are blocked by the carrier. If they allowed that it would bog down their network and slow everyone else down. The only uploads permitted are pictures to like facebook or myspace.
Well if i remember quite correct , it also says "UPLOAD DISABLED" when surfing via WIFI ..
Its more due to the fact that the G1 has no file browser by default and the published one doesnt go deep enough into the system (aka the browser just dont recognize them) ... :-Z
//EDIT:
see here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=467209
i also mailed the Steel and the Linda File Manager developer about this issue

What torrent application are you running on this server? BarTor handles torrent uploads to several popular torrent clients (uTorrent, Vuze, KTorrent). If it's not one of those, we can certainly look into supporting the client you are using. I realize this is not quite the same as what you are asking for but I thought I'd chime in anyway.

This sucks .. for each site and upload a different app <.<
Huh? BarTor is one app, which enables download of torrent files from anywhere and upload to anywhere that is running one of the supported torrent download clients. It was only a suggestion as an option for darrin0101.
I get what you are saying though, and if this post was not specifically about torrent uploading, I'd probably not have commented at all. I wonder why no one has recompiled the browser with a file manager, or to use an existing one? I'd do it if I didn't have to download the entire android source to do it...
Well, i would if i could more than php and mysql ^^
I don't know if a filemanager can take the role for this because i dont know if the browser has a pick file hook
further this should be for nonrooted android users as well
But i would'nt say no to a fix for this only for rooted users :>
Just set up an FTP server on the remote system, and use one of the FTP clients on the market for uploading? uTorrent allows for automatic loading of new torrents in a specific folder.
Oh, and shall i upload pictures to websites this way too?
attach files to rapidshare this way too?
attach files at a forum this way too?
and so on..
has there been any progress on this yet? i would like to be able to upload pictures to my site, which is wordpress powered so i have an upload form.
Maybe give loccy a ring and see if he knows how.

I doubt that's doable granted it would probably involve modifying objects in the Browser.apk, so the people who would be able to use it on their phones would be the rooted users who can push modified browsers to their Android phones.
U have to use the oprea browser it let u upload anything.
i don't like opera too much, granted it works for this issue but the ui is ugly imho. besides i'm a bit ocd and i prefer to have the original pieces of software but working the way they should have been from the start. which usually means modding the stuff that came on the phone

i couldnt get opera to work on www.youtube.com
youtube.com probably won't work with any browser, at least until java for android comes out. why not just use the youtube app?

Anyone try this yet?
I installed it this morning, was pretty excited. However, it doesnt navigate to downloaded .torrent files on your sd. It says "to begin, use the browser to open a torrent file" but I cant seem to get my browser to just open a torrent file. Not sure if I'm not doing something correctly, or if the app is garbage. Anyone else?
Decided to try it out myself. I had no problems with using the browser to get torrents. Only problem i seem to have is that torrents from private trackers wont start.
for the people who have used it....is it worth getting? dont feel like buying then returning it if i dont like it...
trying it now seeing how it works
I've got it working now. Torrent wont start though, downloaded from mininova.

yea I have the same problem
in its current form its not worth getting, i can get nothing to actually download.... maybe will get fixed with updates
You all say its not worth it at the moment, does anyone else have an alturnative Android seriously seems to be lacking one atm.
can anyone post the logcat output from when this is running? I'm curious to see if there are any error messages when you cant connect.
It says FOSS but I don't seem to be able to find the sources for this.

I just run rtorrent in Debian on my phone. Works like a charm.
Hi guys!
I made this!
I added an update today which should fix that private tracker thing. It was a problem with port collisions.. my fault.
Let me know if you have any more problems, feedback is appreciated. Source is coming, just need to clean it up..

If you're having specific problems, please send me the actual .torrent, your location, your network connectivity and your build.
Some people are claiming that it says they don't have space, but I can't recreate this bug and I'm wondering if it's a custom build thing.

mine says the same thing about there not being enough space. Im wondering if its not pointing to the SD cards location?
Fixed that bug.
anotherbittorrent client abtc
I started using the program about a week ago and found out that if u use btjunkie website most will start to download. I have had a problem with the downloads stopping and not resuming. U can only download one torrent at a time. If while downloading u plug in your phone to charge the torrent will quit downloading. I can't wait till the software gets a couple more updates. Then I probley will start passing 25gig a month downloaded thru tmobile.
This app still does not download anything for me. I just tried dowloading Ubuntu with it.
I've done a bit of searching on this, but, the terms are too generic and I can't narrow it down enough, so, i'm sorry if this has been answered before.
So, I'm an avid gamer, love the emulators for Android. Long story short, there is an app that will allow me to use my bluetooth controller with Android. This app has been used and downloaded by a number of different people, but, when I try to install, the app never appears in my drawer. It shows as installed in settings/applications, but thats it.
I've installed it via the market, and ADB, even rebooting after both installs. Running SuperD 1.11, this also occurred under Cyanogens new 2.1 ROM.
Contact the developer...
this application may not open on its own...you may have to open the emulator to see the affects of this app...i cant be sure as you didnt give enough info to properly diagnose. a name for the app might be nice. if the app shows up in your downloads in the market, then try clicking the "View developer's Website" link in the details page, if there is none then try sending an email to the developer to ask how to use the app.

Hi all,
Do you folks have suggestions of good places to download apk's so I can still install apk's to my device even though it's not connected (would download on pc and transfer to device)?
Thanks,
Ho'okani
Be carfull with questions like this if they think you are asking for "warez" you can be banned, if you are looking for free to download apks check the devlopers sites as most of the time they are up for free. If you cant find anything and its not Private or Paid ill help you but I will dont get you anything that needs to be bought.
Definitely not looking for warez type sites or for apk's you have to pay for. basically looking for freeware type sites so i an download and manually install when i don't have access to the market. I haven't been able to work out how to wifi tether my Gpad with my Touch HD so when at the office so I can't get my Gpad online to gain access to the market since we only use wired lan.
Thanks,
Ho'okani
I'm looking for something similar. One spot where I can find apk's like flash, new york times or other official apps that for whatever reason do not show up in the market.
Getjar.com has a few.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
I purchased a number of apps from Handango/Pocket Gear. They had an option to download to PC. Result was the APK for the programs. It was also beneficial for flashing a ROM and having to re-install.
I know this app has been discussed long ago but I can't find the reference, so I need to start another thread
I've installed this in the past because it really is so much easier than trying to search through the entire epub for something. But I was not able to download the version I wanted (was greyed out or something), couldn't find any old references, and so eventually deleted it. The version I am using is labeled 1288193153_Bible_2.4.1.apk
Now when I install it I get lots of server communication error messages and never any content. I also cannot see offline options. Always the server communication errors. Refresh does not help.
Does anyone know if this is dead for the NST/G now or am I just having a bad day?
Well, can you see the URL it's trying to reach? Does it still exist?
You can apktool it then grep for http.
