Who can let me know which apk is about the wi-fi direct? Thanks a lot.
Why .apk ?
It's already in Settings --> Wireless & Networks --> Wi-Fi direct settings.

Can you attach the settings.apk for me?Thanks
I'm sorry but since I have no computer now, I actually can't do that but maybe someone passing on this thread can.

Thanks,the wifi direct is only enabled in settings, is there any application for file transfer? I find the "wifi cast" application from the wifi direct show video.Is it the original apk of LG 970?
If anyone have any info on wifi direct, pls let us know. I saw the video on youtube that someone showing how to send file from a P970 to another P970 with an application called 'wifi cast'. But it is not on my P970 and cannot find anything on the net.
I bought two P970, one for me and one for my son. I was trying to send files from one to another, but can hardly do anything after connection in the 'setting'.
soln for wi fi direct on lg optimus black (partial)
The app used in CES 11 demo - wifi cast. apk is available on lg world. I am attaching here or you can download directly from lg world. can only send pics, music and vids - no more

You may have to configure and pair the two phones.
I found an app on google play store and apparently its the only app on play store which utilizes the wifi direct capabilities.
The app name is "Wifi Shoot (beta)" You can checkout the demo video in the app page for how to use this app.
The app still in beta. I was able to send a file using this app over with wifi direct from my HTC One X to my friend's Galaxy Note. However i was unable to do vice versa. that is, i was unable to receive files from other device to my HTC One X. I used this app on my HTC One X and my friend's HTC One X and tried for hours to send and receive files but without any success. Only success was, i was able to send file to my friends' Galaxy Note. I believe on HTC devices, the implantation of wifi direct itself is not stable.
I searched for many apps in play store but found this app to be the one which actually uses the wifi direct technology. Looking forward for the stable version.

you missed forum?
Hey, I don't know if any of you use airdroid to sync files via wifi, but I downloaded it because wifi file transfer quit working for me. However, this doesnt work either. My browser will say can't to server (have tried multiple browsers). I emailed support, but was wondering if any of you had some insight?
Adfree or adaway wouldn't effect this would they?
Thanks
AirDroid worked fine for me using the default port (and Chrome) . It's possible (and, I think, likely) that your router settings are blocking it in some way. Check those settings or change the port AirDroid uses.
Silly Question: Phone is connected to same wifi network and not using data connection, right?
I've also used File Expert's FTP share to transfer files a good bit. It works well and has an FTP client built-in so you can share between phones too.

I've been using samba filesharing without any issues from stock through revolt and now ginger 1.3. Definitely give it a shot.

ok as the title suggests.... anyone of you know of any apps similar to AirDroid? Ive tried using it and 8 out of 10 times i cannot seem to log in to the webclient to connect my phone....
Please note, im not looking for solutions to this problem here.... just alternative apps that does the same thing more or less....
thanks in advance
There's a app called browsix that I've used before, it doesn't have the nice interface AirDroid does but its has half the features of it. You can find it on the market.
Just thought I'd suggest it.
Tried that one but still can't get it to work properly maybe its something to do with my Wi-Fi.... using Wi-Fi file explorer for now tho..... seems to be ok
search button..... just do it.....
try file expert. it has a feature like tht.
bt nt as good as airdroid
Was abt to download that and give it a shot then I read further into the reviews and although it got good ratings, there were reports of spam and huge battery drain.... sigh... airdroid is still the best so far but for the life of me I can't figure out what's wrong with me connecting to the website.... seriously anyone else using airdroid?
search button..... just do it.....
so u r trying to http://web.airdroid.com/ or locally?
ur firewall might block the port
for me, both local and website works fine
The website link is useless for me, the only times I got on it were on the 192.11 etc even that is not stable for me firewall is ok as using other almost similar apps manage to log me on easily
search button..... just do it.....
You might wanna try ES Explorer, since the last updates, it got the SD card sharing function, and with that became the best file manager for me.
i am using es, but does it let you control your phone and its contents from your computer?
Is it possible to transfer data with an FTP server like airdroid or something?
Or can I just access my phones data?

Try websharing app, it has good user interface
With lite version you can upload single file at a time, with full version you can upload bulk files, folder etc. Full version have some nice features.
With airdroid I also have sometimes auto disconnect problem
Sorry for bad english

It does. Check the Remote Manage box in Settings > Remote Settings.
It has been 6 months I dont know if you found anything but I can reccomend a great app just like AirDroid.
It's called SnapPea and its truly awesome. Been using it for some time now and its really great.
Webkey
Not sure if this one has been mentioned but Webkey is astonishingly powerful. Needs root but can connect through various networks; I use it when airdroid won't work. The PC side is just a webpage. Address is http://webkey.cc and you get the app from the Market.
I know this is an old thread, but I just wanted to share something I discovered.
Not sure if it has changed yet, but I was using Opera web browser a couple of months ago, and AirDroid does not work with that browser...just an FYI
Cool!
Airdroid 2.0 is awesome!
But the below two are very good as well!

it will be implemented in the next version of Null.
He has it working (pdanet) go read on it in the last couple of pages, up to the sticky versions....
I did get the foxfi bluetooth tether to work, you have to install the tablet app on the gear (I did have to change the font scalling for the app to see everything to get it connected)....It works for the browser and amazon app store but for some reason when you try to download apps it says there is not internet access. The download manager also.says no internet access.....but the browser works great including youtube in browser.

I just tried PDAnet+ Pro on my Note 2 from Sprint and PDAnet Tablet on my gear, I received a constant data connection on the browser, however...I cant seem to get a data connection on Google Maps. I also tried Spotify, worked great to stream music but I couldn't get my playlist.

Im not sure why some apps can use the connection and some can't....
Indeed, it would have to be with the way bluetooth tethering routes the data connection.
Try my guide. I got it working on Verizon without native phone tethering and I can use the google play store/Netflix

Hello friends.
I've a Galaxy Gear with no root.
I've installed browser, but it's impossible to go on internet.
It's possible to enable bluetooth tethering on my last stock firmware?
Thanks in advance at all.
Noblesse oblige
Depends. You can use PDA net and brows the web, but if you are on a US/Canadian carrier other than Verizon, the native tethering is not an option, so you are extremely limited. If on T-Mobile, you can flash on of the international roms on your phone. Staying stock will not get you all the things that are possible using a custom rom like _null for your gear.

I had the same issue , I downloaded Easy tether pro on my phone "No root needed". I then enabled MTP on my Galaxy Gear and transferred the APK for Easy tether for tablet on my gear . The 2 apps connect phone to Gear , Viola internet on your Galaxy Gear . Almost forgot . You'll need ES file explorer to look up the app and install on you GEAR .
I have attached images of my progress
