Hi Forum,
I'm going to get my S3 LTE tomorrow and tried to find some info about accessing it from a Linux system - to no avail
Anybody having some experience or hints for me?
Thx!

I haven't had much luck using MTP mode, so I put it into camera mode when I want to get files on and off the device. Alternatively, I use something like dropbox. If you want to flash them Heimdall works well, as suggested above.
In short: I haven't had much success, but that depends on what you want to do with it. Getting photos/videos on and off isn't too bad.
Thx
Hey,
have you tested dolphin with the mtp plugin? Works, not very well but i can access my phone and copy files from it or to it. Sometimes the plugin crashs, you have to plugin in it again.
For me the best solution, other mtp tools works too but not so good.

A very good vnc solution that is *actually* useable....It's beyond me as to why this isnt on the market (maybe its the $25?)
Play around with it...its quite fun...
Where's the link?
Is this it: http://code.google.com/p/android-vnc-viewer/ ?
Android VNC Viewer
So last night i saw a post on googles own vnc viewer which is coded to work on the g1 and the android emulator.
Well, I forwarded my ports correctly and setup my server accordingly. I am using TightVNC as well as UltraVNC at seperate times.
I am able to establish a connection through all services on my g1, (3g edge and wifi). Only when I arrive on the connection
I am greeted with only a black screen. I switch to mouse control on my g1 by pressing trackball and can see me moving the pc mouse from my g1.
So my connection is working flawlessly but my only error is that i cant see anything on my g1.
Is there a special mirror driver i must install??? somebody please help me for i use remote desktop as a part of everyday life
Latest androidVNC viewer
As long as none of these are shown as released on http://code.google.com/p/android-vnc-viewer/ I'll keep compiling and placing them here. I'll edit this post with the current latest so it's easy for everyone to download without spending the time getting eclipse up and working.
r17 allows saving of multiple servers for quick-connect profiles.
I do not know if you need to uninstall the previous version before installing this one. I always uninstall before installing the new one with a project that changes as much as this one has recently.
Thanks buddy!
Thanks so much! I hope this app gets the development it deserves. This, and an rDesktop app are needed badly!

Android-VNC Viewer Compile?
How do I go about compiling the source code for the Android-VNC Viewer located at (http://code.google.com/p/android-vnc-viewer/).
I looked around and seen a post that said I would have to compile it on linux / mac... I do have Ubuntu setup on this machine as a separate OS but I'd rather not boot into Linux just to do that...
Anyone run native Linux that can compile the APK and add a link? If not then I will as long as I know how
just download the apk they have for download and use that.
The APK that is on there is far outdated compared to where the project currently is. For instance, there is a post that links r17's release on it which allows you to save settings, change color mode and a few other nice features... The current build is up to r28 now so I'm sure better support and newer features were added since then.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=3199765#post3199765
I think that build is only a few days old.
r31 is now the latest and the developers have released it directly:
http://android-vnc-viewer.googlecode.com/files/androidVNC_build090125.apk
They compiled it this time around so I didn't have to
Thank you! Cant wait to try it. =)
Hmmm, I tried the linked apk and it won't install. The older version still works.
I checked out the trunk but it is the same as the previous release.
I checked out the antlersoft branch but it doesn't compile: package com.antlersoft.android.dbimpl does not exist
Has anyone else tried the latest version apk or compiling?
I've tried it, and it won't connect for me. However, I haven't tried any previous versions, so I may have it set up incorrectly.
The R17 build won't work for me, so chalk it up to that. Or my stupidity.
Well I downloaded it to my laptop and then installed via adb and it worked.
Usually I download with steel and install from the sdcard. But that didn't work this time for some reason. (new JF1.41 or new vnc or user error?)
This wouldn't install for me from the sd card. Any ideas?
Yeah it wont install for me either, I tried both AppsInstaller from SDcard and adb - neither were successful... I noticed the build is now at 33, any chance we can get someone to compile it? Maybe the issue was fixed but not repacked?
There's an "official" build/apk out on http://code.google.com/p/android-vnc-viewer/. The filename calls is 090125 which, I assume, means January 25th I downloaded it and tried to install it from my phone (not via adb) and it failed to install for me (BTW, so does the -17 version in the first post). Could be that the key is installing via adb, I don't know. I'll try it later when I have a chance but I thought everyone owuld be interested in the update.
I reported this as an issue on the project, however after fully uninstalling the previous app and downloading the file directly from my G1 it installed successfully. I did not use the SDcard / AppsInstaller or ADB - I just used the traditional method of going to the site on my phone and installing it from there, after I uninstalled the previous version.
Hopefully this works for you guys as well.
Hello everyone.
I was wondering if anyone has been using a download manager that works flawlessly on their diamond.
I installed Handyget and WMDA (winmobile download accelerator).
The first doesnt suport VGA but you can still use it. The only thing is that it stop every once in a while while downloading a file (over HSDPA). It is very annoying. The other one supports VGA, has a beautiful interface, but seems to save the files to the device memory before transferring them to the internal storage even though you set it to save directly to a folder in internal storage.
If anyone is using a good download manager, or has a way to fix WMDA to save directly to internal storage without saving to device first please advise me.
Thanks
Edit: Anything that works with rapidshare will do..
Hi all...
Sorry for the noob question but I am still really new with Android devices.
Can someone please explain how you "sideload" apps to my Galaxy S i9000M?
I really hope this is not an extremely dumb question but I really want to try the
z4root app out that RyanZA has created and it is not YET on the Market for download.
Any assistance and explaination is much appreciated!!!
PS... Im a quick learner so once it is explained I will not bother you PRO's again for something like this...
-EDIT- Ok... I see that this thread is not getting much response so I will add some further information in hopes that someone can explain things to me.
I am on stock JH2 Eclair Firmware (if that matters).
I want to know... How is the best way to download these apk files to my device to be installed? Via my computer and then xfered to my SGS via USB or should I download the file directly to my device?
Once its on my device, where is the best place to put it? ie. Internal SD, External SD, somewhere else?
Please oh mighty DROID experts... Help this unworthy noob in his quest for "DROID-DOM"...
There probably isn't a best way, but if you download the .apk to your desktop computer you can email it to your phone and then save attachment. I use internalsd/download because I don't have an external sd. Then use a program like Astro Browser on your phone and navigate to the download directory. Tap the file you saved and then open app manager to install.
USB or through kies will get the file to your phone easily also.
I like when people create a QR code for their files. I browse mostly on my desktop so I use barcodescanner on my phone to get the link to my phone.

Thank You Videonut. I appreciate the response and the help.
Any way works. Card reader for your SD card, KIEs, USB debugging mode, Dropbox, email attachment, web browser, bluetooth... none of it matters. Location on your phone doesn't matter either. You are still going to have to install it.
Thanks everyone for the explainations. They will come in handy in the future but for now it seems that RyanZA has put the z4root on the market and I no longer need to side load it but again... Thanks for helping!!!
Hi All,
Before I begin, I'd like to note that I am very new to the andoid system; I only received my Galaxy S about a month ago and before that I was a hardcore iPhone 3GS user.
I've attempted to search these forums for an answer to my query, but I have found it difficult due to the enormity of these forums.
With my iPhone, I was able to use a program called Air Video...I am not sure if anyone here is familiar with it. It allows you to stream video via WiFi from your computer to your iPhone with on the fly conversion. You'd install a small server on the computer then share the relevant folders. You could then access the shares from the iPhone and play any video files.
I have been attempting to find a similar app for my Galaxy S but the closet I've been able to get is CIF manager with a separate file manager and video player. My issue is that I cannot get CIF manager to work. I am after a compatible CIFS.ko file to enable me to access my Windows 7 shares.
Does anyone know where I can find said file? Here are my handset details:
Model Number: GT-I9000
Firmware Version: 2.2.1
Baseband Version: I9000XXJPY
Kernel Version: 2.6.32.9 hardcore speedmod-k13a-5000hz #32
Build Number: DocRom_V9.1.4_XWJS3
Thanks!
Eliminatrix
I would be very interested to know if you resolved this
I dont have solution for CIFS.ko but i have other solution.
I run a webserver on my computer. anything light will do.
from phone under wifi open the access your computer using browser.
navigate to your video file and copy the link
install vplayer and paste the link. So far it work flawless for me.
I not sure other free player works but vplayer you can fast forword without problem
Not sure if this will help, but MOST of the kernels in this forum have cifs support, you simply need to enable it via CWM.
Then you should be able to use CIF Manager the same way you would a samba share if you are familiar with linux or via windows shares (no need for additional program on the system).
Can you elaborate how? I do not see anything look like enabling cifs in CWM...

Hi guys!
i wrote a little guide to use DirectoryBind to "emulate" a memory swap, and install apps and data on external storage (USB Pendrive, HDD, mounted CIFS, etc)
This is valid for OUYA, or any rooted device.
hope you found useful.
Note: Is in spanish. use tranlsator to get a translated version. Hope i get some time and generate a proper English version to post here. If there is any guy that wants to help me translating, it will be nice.
http://manguiro.blogspot.com/2013/07/guia-rapida-bind4swap-directorybind.html
I created another guide, similar to BIND4SWAP, and i use a shared directory on my local net to use as a sdcard on any android device. This is useful if you want to "extend" your storage to a remote location, and you can use the same installed files on many android devices. i.e., i tested and use one single installation of my android applications (nova3 in example), and can load an play on my Ouya, JXDS7300B, JXDS5110B, S908, Motorla Razr, GPD5005, etc... all devices are pointing to the same net resource and load the files, without need of installing files on local device.
note: this guide (CIFS&BIND) is for fast local networks. If you have a slow network, then i suggest to use it for small size games, or games that loads small portions of data (i.e. Bard´s Tale is a game that runs ok in a 100mb speed network)
http://manguiro.blogspot.com/2013/07/cifs-directorybind-sambadroid-cifs.html
Now, i´m working in a new version of the CIFS&BIND guide, but i´m using the OUYA as network resource. I attached a HDD via USB to the console (350GB), and ouya uses as their sdcard (via DirectoryBind). I get over 120 games installed on the ouya... and share all these data to my other devices. I have only a problem for now, i want go create a Access Point Wifi on the Ouya, but all the software i tested hangs or get errors. I want to get advantage of the WIFI antenna of the OUYA because runs at 150mbs (wifi n), that is a good speed for many guys that don´t have a fast wifi router on their installations.
if you can help me with this, please send me a mp.
hope these guides will be interesting and useful.
Zalu2!
