AirDroid is so much more awesome cuz you can use wifi hotspot mode too... So all you need is your phone and a device with wifi I'm pretty sure I'll be texting from my playbook from tomorrow

Only recently came across AirDroid and absolutely love it. My only gripe is that it CAN get a bit slow if the WiFi connection is a bit stretched, but otherwise a really useful app.
Just a suggestion since we're on the topic of wireless access, but if you have an Android tablet and an Android phone, you might want to check out TextTab.

It essentially allows you to text from your phone using your Tablet device. I found it very useful when I still had my Galaxy Tab.
Hmmm... I'm installing os2 on my playbook tomorrow... So I'll try it out and report

Oh! Sorry buddy - Thought you'd want the main app. Here's a link to the Lite version.

Has anyone figured out how to use a phone's data connection as a wifi connection for the Kindle. In this particular instance an iPhone.. Yes I know they suck and I want to get rid of mine, but in the mean time... I looked into it a little bit, my phone is jailbroken, and the only app I have come accross is PdaNet, which I guess uses adroid too. I just could not get it to work so thats why I am coming here. I am leaving for a long road trip from FL to NC in a couple of weeks and I thought it would be useful. Thanks in advance!!:good:
AW: Thether..
If you have an iphone 4 or later, you can use the personal Wlan hotspot feature.
If you have a 3gs you can only enable a personal bluetooth hotspot for a PAN.
If you have a rooted Kindle you can install the Bluetooth PAN app over the Play Store.

Thanks for the reply I got it solved though. I installed an app called tetherme from cydia. Works great if anyone else is interested!
Does anyone know how to use Wifi direct with the HTC one to transfer moderate to large files like movies or videos.( beam/bue tooth is to slow) Everytime i try to use it with any phone it fails or doesn't connect. ive also tried third party apps like super beam/ send!/file transfer/ none of which work. i find it hard to believe that the HTC one is suppose to compete with the GS4 and GS3 but cant do any features that mimic S BEAM its a fail on HTC. if anyone could help to get this to work i would appreciate it thank you

Superbeam works fine on my HTC one. Use it to transfer between my one and my Nexus 10 all the time. Make sure Wifi direct is enabled on your phone, I believer there is an option to block it if you don't want people connecting, or something.
Every time I use it it says wifi direct fail I've tried HTC to HTC and HTC to Samsung I have my wifi and wifi direct turned on still not working I even went into the wifi direct option and manually paired with device still not working also tried a different HTC to make sure it's not mine still having same is first file was 86kb failed next was 1gb movie failed

I've successfully transferred a picture with super beam from my one to nexus 7. Not sure what's keeping it from working

Maybe you could try doing a factory reset or a custom rom, maybe something is borked in your os.
Have the same problem. Try to use WiFi direct with my wife's gs3 so I can watch a movie on my ps3 and her phone kept saying connection failed. Her sbeam was on and we were paired. Kinda weird. Any way on a side note any way to connect our phone as mass storage instead of mtp?

i rooted and flashed custom rom wifi direct still not working with superbeam always comes up saying wifi direct failed try wifi hot spot option....any other suggestions
MadMan3353, we are building an app that does exactly just that. The app is called Drop, and it is a simple, fast, and secure way to share files with people/devices in proximity over WiFi Direct. We are going into a limited Private Beta soon, so if you're up for the challenge, (and running Jelly Bean) then sign up at www.get-drop.com. Seats are limited, and we have a rolling enrollment, so check it out.

Seriously? This doesn't help solve his problem. Especially when it is obvious from his posts that he has tried HTC to HTC.

This is why I think Samsung in the long run is going to lose...as they copied their way to the top, they are becoming like Apple...create a closed-ecosystem solution. At a minimum you need to create something that works at least within Android....and if you're ambitious, make it work cross-platform with iOS....shameless plug...go check out what we're doing at www.get-drop.com! Going into Private Beta soon for Android first...

Hi all,
I just wondering how exactly to use this features on my HTC One. Does anybody use it successfully ? I cannot do that. I tried sometimes to send files with WiFi direct but it does not appear neither in gallery and music! ;(

I dont think that you can beam files from phone to phone via wifi. with NFC it works but its a bit buggy.

But is was possible between S2 and S3... And how to do that with NFC ? Some guide or something else like that ?
Is only one option the bluetooth ? I mean without thirdparty app.
Thanks beforehand!
Sent from my HTC One using xda app-developers app
Same question here. I tried using NFC also but it is not working for me. I enabled it from settings. Any other setting required? First I thought its a hardware problem in my handset.
Have you tried using SuperBeam from the mkt? Works fine for me between my HTC One and an N4 - transferred a large video file pretty quickly between the two even though there was no wifi network/router available nearby
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.majedev.superbeam
for NFC share, this is what HTC says https://support.htc.com/en-au/010-HTC_One/0G0/040

Thanks. SuperBeam successfully transfer one mp3 from S3 to One but it was impossible do it from One to S3.. I will try again tomorrow.
About thr NFC when i try to send imahe or music the S3 opens Playstore and says the item is not found!
I cannot understand where exact is the problem. As I said already it was VERY easy to transfer from S2( one of the best phone I have ever had) and S3...
PS: I love my ONE !

I've tried every tether app I've found and so far the only thing that works is fqrouter 2, but it's not the most stable connection.
I've tried the TrevE mod, but I can only get it to connect using Auto. Setting it to anything else doesn't seem to do anything.
It was easy on my Hero and Evo 3D, just can't seem to get it to work on my One.
I'm rooted/s-off using stock 3.05.651.6.
Any ideas?

Is there any straight tweak that will do the trick? Right now I am using Wifi Tether adhoc to my laptop, (only mode I can get to work), and a cable from my laptop to my PS3. It works, but still isn't totally stable. My laptop and phone lose connection often. Not sure why.
fqrouter 2 barely stays connected. Shouldn't there be another app or a tweak I can apply that would work better, more effectively?
