Hey everyone. I was wondering if there is a way to mount my windows share to my android. I know girl explorers can view it and whatnot. But I want to mount it for other reasons. I tried https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.twimager.cifsmanager but could not get it to recognize my smb which is public with no pass or users. Any help is much appreciated.
FYI it's a wd my cloud hd

Try this instead.
Install folder sync and set up an account for your network drive via smb or cifs....
Then create folder pair between your account and your sdcard, with your desired sync settings.
Then use Tasker to initiate the folder pair.
This is how i do it and it works great

Is there anything similar to Android File Transfer out there? For some reason I can't seem to load my phone up through AFT to drag music files over. I don't like HTC Sync manager. So I was wondering if there is anything similar out there that you know of?
I use wifi transfer pro

I used My Phone Explorer , very good app :good:
A couple of days ago my phones free space got down to 1.5GB and I figured I should back it up to free some space. What a pain it turned out to be!
As most of you know we can only transfer as MTP and PTP and I presume this is where most of the problems come from..
1. File identification is slooooww.
2. transfer time literally freezes at the initial transfer to my HDD. making it impossible to drag and drop another set of files
3. I dont believe all of the files were discoverable (aka hidden)
Please post any and all methods/apps/MODS etc. that may help in this kind of process! Thank you.
p.s. I am using Windows 8

I've found it easiest to take out the MicroSD card and put it in an adapter and put it in my laptop or desktop and push files to and from it. Works a TON faster than using the USB cable to the phone.
Assuming everything is on the external SD card.
For anything internal, adb root, then adb pull everything you want. (Make sure the phone is plugged into the original AC charger - it's going to take a while if you pull a lot of files.)
1.5GB left? And I thought I was a software junkie. I still have 23GB free (internal), and there's still loads of stuff I installed to find out why someone was having a problem and haven't uninstalled yet.
For me i only use cabe conection to use odin. For transfearing files i use mmc card reader. Very easy.

Okay. But what if I want to transfer directly from the internal memory? I only just put in an mSD card since the phone got full. Do you push everything from internal to SD then take the SD out and put it in a PC?

I need to find a way to copy files for Dropbox or Google Drive to my phone. Samsung doesn't allow this in 3rd party file managers like ES File Explorer.
Can anyone please suggest a workaround or app that would make this happen?
Rant: I can't believe Samsung took this away. I feel more and more like iPhone users the more I use this phone. Rant over.

there are workarounds yes, but third party apps such as dropbox or google drive will not save to the external sdcard only to internal memory, esfile explorer works great to copy files to and from the external sdcard.
Hello all,
I want to format Windows 7 and install Windows 8. I booted from the USB and went to the page where I can select which drives to format. I have 2 1 TB drives. The C drive which has windows and I want to format it and the D drive which has all my back up photos, music and videos. I deleted the system cache which is 100 mb and I don't know which of the two drives is the one that has windows. Is it in an alphabetic order. C drive is first and then D drive is below it?
Sent from my SM-G900H using XDA Free mobile app
Yup.
The "C drive" contains the Windows operating system.
I know that. But on the installation screen it says Disk 1 and Disk 2. I want to know which of these is Disk C

I believe it should say more than that.
Does it say the amount of storage after selecting the disk or anything like that?

I would unplug your external(?) storage device (drive D) to see if the first one is the C drive.
Personally, I think the C drive should be on top as it could be in the order by drives.

Uh, the Windows install always displays the drive letter. (Even the pirated ones.) And usually even the name of the drive.
Can you still get to the device manager? If so, it has a partition manager which'll list which drive is which.
If not, boot into BIOS. Check which one is set as the boot device, that one's C:/.
Also, you can disconnect an internal harddrive.. Just open the door and pull out the cable... (I always do that on a Windows install to prevent conflicts and potential data loss. (even on my laptop. My Asus grants full hardware access.).)

It is not my computer. The menu is like this.
And when I try to go to BIOS is requires a password and my friend says he doesn't know it.
We can't boot the current windows because we deleted the first small partition.

Make sure you´ve backed up any data you need and delete both partitions. Then click on the unassociated space and select "new". Proceed with the installation.
OH THE SCREEN IS NOT FROM YOUR INSTALLATION? Thought that were you´r partitions -.- Don´t proceed please post a pic of YOUR screen.

No it's not the same. It depends in which sata plug the harddrive is plugged on your motherboard. It's not alphabetical. Just look at the free space and think how much data you've got on your d:/ that's the only way.

Looks like I am out of luck. I've already deleted the small partition which boots up windows so I can't see how much memory each drive has. Thanks anyways

The "system reserved" partition is the backup one. I have a very similar configuration to that. The partition you want to format is the second, the one that says "primary". Also, windows couldn't be installed in a ~300-400mb partition.

I'm sorry you are not understanding it. I of course see that free space. But I don't know which of these disks is C. Because when I started to install windows, I didn't go to Computer to see how much free space Disk C has so I can easily recognize it on the installation screen. And I can't check it because I can't boot windows anymore.

Just curious, is there a way or an app, or a script or something to have the ability to just have screen shots, downloaded pics and what not to save to your external SD card by default? I usually have about 100+ that I have to manually move every time I flash a rom..

Just curious as to why you move them. Are you wiping internal storage when you flash?

No I don't wipe that, but it's my fearful OCD that my phone will just up and die and I will lose my SS's. I really hate using the "cloud". Don't trust that crap that much.
So use two clouds. It is very unlikely they will fail at the same time plus it will automatically synchronize with your pc. Dropbox gives 50 gig for new note users, google drive another couple gigs, same microsoft, Amazon, box, samsung cloud. SD card can fail too.

meh, it's not about the "horse" drinking water. It's is simply about seeing if there was something out there that would allow me to just have my screen shots and downloaded pics go directly to my SD card. It's my choice not to use the cloud. Personal reasons. Hence why I am here asking for some app or something.
Screw the cloud. I'm old Skool too. Now where's mg 5.25 inch floppy.
