What's the easiest way to file transfer from PC to NC cm7 using bt?
using Bluetooth File Transfer and is so slow
Why not just use the USB cable or a wifi transfer app? Bluetooth on the Nook was never meant to be used

We use switch at the office and no wifi router or ap, got bt though. I use wifi router at home.
Anybody could direct to to easy wifi adhoc connection?
You can use myphone explorer to transfer files via wlan(and tons of more stuff) to your pc.
On another note, have anybody had problems receiving files but not sending?
For some reason I can send files to a phone, but I can't receive files from that phone over BT.
If there was no wifi in your working area, then BT is the only choice besides USB.
I had a mess trying to get BT file transfer working, ended up using adbWireless to push/pull the files I wanted.
Try File Expert from the Market. It's free and supports HTTP, FTP, SMB(Windows Network Share), and BT file transfer methods. Alternatively if booting from Internal Mem on Nook, copy files to MicroSD and the put MicroSD into Nook, if Booting from MicroSD, then insert MicroSD into Computer running Linux and copy files to Forth Partition(Should be the Biggest).

Drop box is also worth looking into, though like other suggestions it requires wifi.

And by that not meaning tethering or active syncing. I don't want to sync my phone. I just want to transfer a file (58mb) from my laptop to my HTC Tilt's storage card via bluetooth. Normally I use the USB cable and the phone will be detected and I can see it in Windows Explorer. Then I click on it like a drive and paste the file.
you don't have to actually "sync" it. You can disable all syncing and just use the file explorer. Or you can enable the ftp folder on your phone(under bluetooth settings). After which you can go to your bluetooth explorer on your PC then go file sharing or ftp etc. Your particular computer may be differnt than mine.
This by far one of the toughest phones I've had. I can't use the dock to sync as it only gives it power and local Bluetooth audio.
Ok, I tried connecting to the USB cable directly. Nope, I have tried many time to copy files to the SD card. I can mount it but it will only stay connected for a short time. It's seems as soon as any other application tries to read it the phone dismounts the SD card. I can tell it to mount again but then whatever program I'm using crashes because the SD card has disappeared in the middle of a file transfer. Anyway...
So, now I try Bluetooth to the PC. Nope, the PC and the Nexus One can see each other but if I try to pair from either the PC or the phone they fail to pair. The computer pairs with a keyboard, mouse, HTC Cruise (just did it for the first time and went like clockwork) and a Plantronics head set. The Nexus One has paired with the Plantronics head set. With the HTC Cruise it asks for a pass code on the phone and the PC but the Nexus just fails without asking for anything. I have also set it as discoverable.
Help!
Edit I disconnected and unpaired the Plantronics headset and then was able to pair with the PC. The android Bluetooth implementation seems to be a little buggy. I was then able to re-pair the Plantronics headset.
The is no android desktop "sync" most of your phone data is kept in the cloud by default, so it's much less relevant. If you want to copy data to your sdcard, you install the usb driver, plug in your phone and select "Select to copy files to/from your computer" from the notification area.
However the current drivers seem unreliable in win7, we're not sure if win7 or the drivers are to blame.
As an aside if you install "ES File explorer" from the android marked you can access windows file shares via wifi.
There are _no_ bluetooth profiles for file transfer in default android.
I still think there are a lot of people that like to sync MP3s and pictures to their phone with various apps. When data plans are free and way faster than they are now, maybe I'd say that the really fast free connection to my PC is less relevant.
What is the best way to sync MP3s from the PC? ES File Explorer?
Hey guys, sorry again if this has been asked before,
How do I transfer a file from my Mac to the ATT Tab?
There seems to be no USB option on the Tab and the Tab wont mount on my desktop.
Kies don't support Mac file transfer.
Thanks
I use WiFi File Explorer PRO. Seems to be much faster than USB and it should work on your mac.
or use airdroid.
i forgot how to use usb when i used airdroid.
Honeycomb, on this tablet, doesn't use USB mass storage because there is no SD card. It uses MTP storage. It is functional but has some issues. Just use the USB charging cable from your charger and connect the tablet to the computer. make sure usb debugging is turn off unless you want to attempt to use abd to push the files.
You can get wifi file explorer, a free app that will attempt to connect the tablet to the computer via wifi.
Another option is a file sharing service like dropbox or sugarsync

these let you upload files to a cloud server. Then install them to any device with internet access. The starting point is 2GB but you can't expand that. If you want to go the route of dropbox, that link will give us both a little extra space
Thanks, I found that WiFi Pro app and it works fine.
I also just bought the G-Tab 7.7 so will be returning the 8.9 anyway.

HY,
I was wondering if there is a possibility to transfer files from computer to phone or the other way around without connecting the usb cable...
I know bluetooth is an option, but I don't have blue on the computer and it's slow...
I tryed airdroid, but the files were to big
So I need another solution...
You can connect with WiFi to your pc.
How big are the files then? I'm using AirDroid to transfer my system images and TB backups which are around 2GB without a problem, actually quicker than via USB, it just requires a fast WLAN. Another option is to switch the SD card between devices.
I'm using MyPhoneExplorer. It can connect to your phone via Bluetooth, USB and WiFi. Best tool ever to me and it's even free.

I'm trying wifidroid, it's free and does the trick...
Guys, why you make thing so complicated? PC Companion works just fine and you need it to "pair" your pc with your phone then it works over wifi.

I'd second this! Was trying many apps from Airdroid to wifidroid, none worked on mine until I stumbled upon this under Xperia connectivity, this worked flawlessly with my laptop
Use this but remember during the pair process that:
It takes a while
Don't let your screen turn off (temp increase it to something high)
Remember the above especially if you're in Stamina mode.
Once it's done though, it works well and the pair is a one time thing.
PC Companion works, I'm not as happy with it as I want to be. If it disconnects for any reason and you didn't tell it to disconnect it seems finicky about connecting back again to any computer, my home and work computers work the same, until you reboot the phone. I miss Samba but haven't rooted yet hoping for a way without unlocking bootloader still.
One work around I've used is to install FTPServer on phone and WinSCP on my computer to connect and transfer files.
Just wondering what methods you are using?
Quick and dirty cable? If you don't have one are you using Airdroid or another app? Bluetooth? I like Airdroid personally as its simple to flip that switch and connect to it.

WiFi direct connection in combination with ES file Explorer. Most easy way for non geeky user like friends...

OTG-Usb with a small microsd adapter. It is the size of about three quarters in a stack.
Depends what I'm doing. If I'm transferring all data off and back on again, ill use a cable, otherwise ill connect my file manager (solid explorer) to a samba share on my NAS
I have a jump drive that contains two folders in it. One for my N6 and the other for my N7. Both folders I keep updated with different types of content. Stickmount pro and on otg cable and good to go! I'll do this to transfer between the to devices as well.
Send it to or copy it from my NAS
Best way is to run ssh+sftp server on your phone, then you actually have proper access to it.
Go ahead... have at it

I use an app called "Software Data Cable". It's wireless using WIFI or I use SanDisk Ultra 64GB Micro USB 2.0 OTG Flash Drive For Android Smartphone/Tablet ...it's pretty awesome
