Hello,
I have a problem when my phone is connected with a usb cable to the computer I try to copy a video file and then my explorer crashes
When I copy a audio file it works fine and copies the file.
Can anyone tell me what might be the problem?
Thanks

it could be a problem with your windows explorer. which windows version do you use ?
Windows 7
But it's strange that only video files don't copy
I even tried to change the file type from mkv to mp3 (and the file was copied)
But when I changed it back on the device to mkv the video file was working but without sound!

I've tried downloading stuff from the stock browser and other browsers and when I go into my downloads on my phone the file is corrupt. I even checked to see if it was the program by trying to open it on my computer and I got the same result. Does anybody know anything about this or anything?
Where is your download location? I'm not totally sure why unless whatever your downloading isn't compatible with your phone.

The normal download location. Haven't changed it at all. Also, I'm just download a zip file it seems to happen with every file I try.
If the same file is not working on your computer then wouldn't it be the file or did I miss understand your question and statement
The file works on my computer if I download it on my computer. If I download it on my phone then try to open with an app or through usb on my computer it says the file is corrupt. So pretty much saying if I download from phone it's corrupt, download from computer it's fine.
Which other browsers have you tried? I recommend the dolphin browser if you haven't already tried it.

What kind of file is it what are you trying to do
I'm actually using Dolphin Browser. Every other file works fine but .zip files it seems. And the files I tried where Pokemon roms (trying to relieve childhood). But I know the files work since a couple of my friends have downloaded them from their phones and unzipped them on their phones. But my one friend he had a different situation where his would download as a .bin file when it's a .zip file.
Do you know any program that can do this? I've tried WiFi File Explorer PRO and Wifi Transfer but they only let me send files individually, but I need something that would work as if my nexus s was connected via USB. Do you know something like that?

Try ES File Explorer.
I use SwiFTP on the phone combined with Filezilla on computer myself.
Do you use dropbox? If its your computer you're transferring to.. most of the time I use that instead of USB. Unless its a ROM.

ESFile explorer can see shares in your LAN and has multiple select, and root. It will batch your copies as well. I transfer all my music to my phone with ES. Faster than usb.
If you need transfer outside your network then Drop box is your choice.

I've downloaded ES but i don't know how to transfer
Click on the LAN tab and then on your network share.
Then long press on the files you want to transfer and select "copy to"

I don't know how to connect with my pc, faqs on the site are offline
I did it with "WebSharing", very good program. It can mount nexus s like it was usb-plugged
No one is reading the title of the post. The OP wants to transfer FOLDERS with files inside, rather than having to rebuild file structure in the device and upload all files individually. I am looking for the same thing and I've downloaded 5 programs from this post and all of them do exactly the same thing, they upload files but not folders.
Does anyone have a solution that actually does what the OP is asking?

FTP server + client will enable you to drag and drop whole folders and it will rebuild the structure automatically. Just like copying and pasting would do.
Hey guys,
My phone and PC are connected to the same wifi router and I want an app to explore shared files on my PC.
I've already tried ES File Explorer, ASTRO and File Expert and they don't seem to be able to connect to the computer.
Is there another app to do so, or do I need special configuration my my Windows 7?
*Using a laptop I could connect to my PC entering username and password without any problem.
+1 I would like to know myself.

This app is also for browsing SD files on PC, that's not what I'm looking for
I recommend SwiFTP. U can find it on Market.
One click, and you can share files between pc and phone.
Hi all,
I just started playing with my Nexus over the last couple of days. Using Astro I made some directories in /storage/sdcard0. When I mount the Nexus onto my Windows 7 laptop I don't see the directories created using Astro. Anyone experience this? If so, any idea how to get everything to appear?
Thanks,
-Gary
Try rebooting the tablet.

Same issue here. In order to see the files I've dropped onto the tablet, I have to use a file explorer. Bummed I can't drop epubs into an eBook folder or drop them into my Google books folder and read them in Google books.
Once I open the file in the file explorer,I can open the file with the kindle app.

I'm trying to create a folder on my N7 to use with MobileNoter. I got an app called Android File Manager and created a folder, but when I connect to my Win7 PC I see all the folders except the one I created. On the PC the folders are under "Nexus>Internal Storage" and in on the N7 AFM they are under "/storage/sdcard0".
Anybody know how to make a new folder on the N7 that I can get to on my PC? I've verified that I have the latest USB driver (mentioned in another thread) and I've rebboted
Thanks in advance for any help.

You're going to have to reboot the tablet or unplug then replug most likely. I had the same issue when managing my nandroids and a tablet reboot fixed them normally.
I believe it's an issue with the MTP protocal truthfully.

I rebooted my Nexus and I now can see the new folder in Windows Explorer (and copy files to it.) Still can't create folders however.
Same problem here. I just drop everything in the downloads folder and then move them around with root explorer
I am trying to transfer my backup to my computer. But it only transfer 16mb instead of over 3giga of files.

I bet your computer can't see all files, browse the backup folder and check if all files are shown

Sent from my HTC One using XDA Premium HD app
quite weird, what exactly happens when you try to copy?
Sent from my liquid glowing bomb shell
You use TWRP I guess? Latest version has this problem there is a version of 2.5.0.0 with updated touch drivers that will work, look in the TWRP thread
It has nothing to do with the touch drivers. It is a new security feature in 2.6+.
It is related to the permissions being allocated to the backup. It is supposed to be a TWRP 'security feature'... to stop someone from copying your backup from your phone.
If you download the attached zip and extract the command file inside to the folder on your pc containing ADB, if you connect your phone to your pc and double click on the command file, it will change the file permissions and allow you then to copy the backup folder to you pc.
When you run it, you will see two command prompt windows open. One closes immediately and you can close the second one manually. It only takes a second to run.
Easy.

Hi,
It has happened to me (with my old laptop but I don't really know if it's the cause but since I have my new computer I've never had this problem again), try to reboot your phone and transfer your backup but before don't transfer any other files phone->computer or computer->phone, just your backup after the reboot.

This means you don't have ADB, you need to install android sdk to get it

Thanks for correcting my wrong. only revered to the touch driver because of maybe updated firmware. But It's not much of a feature when everyone can download the "key"
Manual Process
If you would like to do it manually do the following:
Open a command window in the Platform-Tools folder of the Android SDK and then type the following:
adb shell
su
chmod -R 777 /data/media/0/TWRP (note, if you are using 4.1 you will need to remove "/0")
exit
exit
This changes the permission so you can copy all of the data from the TWRP folder.
