When trying to transfer a converted movie (AVI file) to watch on my upcoming flight abroad, after transferring for a while, the transfer stops, and the icon in the taskbar on my PC (XP Pro SP2, ActiveSync v4.2) claims that the connection has been disabled. When I looked at my Alpine, the unit had frozen and I have to sft reset it to recover operation. What would cause this? I transferred about 500MB worth of songs yesterday without problems.
Thanks

Try disabling Sync with WMP, then download the files manually. WMP tends to re-start the Sync process every little bit or so, interrupting transfer of large files. (This isn't an issue with large amounts of smaller files, such as all those songs you downloaded.)
I was able to update my phone last night to NoDo, and now I'm coming across a strange issue that I would like to know if anyone else is running into. When I plug my phone into mylaptop (using the same cable and same port as before the upgrade), Windows and Zune detects my phone is connected, and begins to sync my content. However, it gets to about 1% synced and then displays an error message about how the connection timed out. Yet, if I use WiFi Sync, my phone begins syncing, however it is taking forever.
Now, I do have a Kingston 32GB Class 4 MicroSD card installed, and the reg hacks to disable Power Management. I tried removing them and rebooting. Then re-adding them and then rebooting. No change in behavior. What I did notice was that as soon as the screen goes to sleep, a few seconds after that the message appears. Yet if I wake the screen, the Battery icon shows that the phone is still plugged in.
Can anyone else who has a similar setup as mine confirm if they experience this behavior?
So am I the only one?!?
You may want to post this in the Samsung Focus forums. I'm a Focus owner too but I'm not using a SD so I wouldn't know.
For whatever it's worth, I haven't run into any Wi-Fi Sync issues yet. Have you tried a different USB cable or a different USB port? Sometimes it can be as simple as that.
I don't have any WiFi Sync issues, other than it's slow. Looking at the throughput, I'm maxing out the bandwidth for 802.11g anyhow. I wish MS would enable 802.11n on our phones.
I tried connecting my phone to my desktop, and I was able to sync an MP4 video (over 1GB in size) with no problems. And using the very same cable I was using with my laptop. So, something is wrong with my laptop, and off to investigate it. It appears my issue isn't related to NoDo at all.
you hack your phone, sometimes you get bugs.

I had the same problem before NoDo, IMO it is related to USB ports. My guess is if you have all your USB ports in use, or even a device that draws a lot of power, it causes the transfer to be interrupted. I have my notebook on a cooling pad that draws power from a USB port, when I have it plugged in Zune transfers fail. When I unplug it transfers complete without problems.
I had the exactly same issue on all usb ports on my pc at home, where i connected the phone pre nodo(did the update from work)
My guess its a windows problem something that messes up the Zune Sync Driver. You can notice the issue with different usb port also with your mouse, if you de an re connect to the same port no driver installing happens, if yo de and re connect to a port where it never was before, some installation happens. Issue should be some where in there.

I agree with Phoneguy. I think it's your port. I've had syncing problems as well. I have never got the error you're tlking about. But I would have to keep plugging and unplugging phone to get it recognized. My issue I believe is with the mini usb connection. All of my phones (Tilt,Tilt 2,3125,8525) had a problem with the mini usb becoming loose, which makes syncing and charging a pain in the ass.
I almost had the same issue, but if your phone is hacked then it is obvious that there are bugs
Same situation. After Nodo, my focus just syncs for 20-30 sec average and then i have to unplug it and reconnect it several times to get 100% of the syncing done. Help appreciated. Thanks
i have the same exact problem. i have a focus with a 16gb sd card. so 22 gig total.
before nodo, i was able to fill the whole 22gb.
now, the sync problems starts when I hit 8 gig of TOTAL SPACE USED. Aka when the sd card is needed since I have 8 gig onbard my Samsung Focus.
I have some usb devices connected to the pc, i will disconnect everything and try again. ill update this post with the result.

didnt work !
Whenever i plug my nexus with my laptop to transfer files i get speed which is as low as 300-400 kbps!!!
Please help me, is it a virus problem or rom?? Because i have checked with so many systems, bt on each pc speed is slow..
How can i fix it??
If you're transferring large files, forum members suggest doing it via recovery as it's much quicker. I personally have not tried it though. I use AirDroid to do most of my average size file transfers. Mainly because I don't like wires
I believe it's a ics problem and there's no fix yet. So like the other guy suggested use recovery to transfer files. It is much more faster. If you don't know how to transfer files through recovery, all you need to do is...
Turn off the phone
Plug the phone to computer
Go to recovery
Mount and storage
Click the option at the bottom(I forgot to name of it)
Transfer your files

It is a problem with ICS, namely the 3.0 kernel the linux system is based on. Someone's reported it to Google already, but all they've done was mark it as medium severity, and leave it at that. Maybe they'd wake up if a mass of reports poured into their bugtracker, but it's a long shot...
Thank you guyz.... u saved me frm erasing mah usb storage
Anyone else notice that external hard drives have horrendous transfer speeds when connected to USB? I have several 1TB passports filled with videos (mainly Anime), and I bought the TF300 because it played videos from my external hard drives like a champ. Playing videos over network shares are fine (ES File Explorer), but the same videos on my external passports don't play for ****, and sometimes the tablet crashes and reboots. Also, the remove external option (properly remove a device from the tablet) is missing, and I always have to do a scan to fix errors when I connect it to my windows device. Anyone else notice this?
I have the option to unmount, you can't have any notifications under where it says External storage inserted.
As of anime and all that, I will see what you mean in a few minutes. Are you just transfering to your external or internal?
As of now, I have no issues what so ever lol...
I see some slow download speeds from the Black Mart app, but that has always been the case.
Thanks for responding adrhodes. I was trying to play from the external. For some reason the option to eject still isn't showing for me.
I'll wipe and try flashing the official JB again and see if that helps.
adrhodes, I found the eject button Had to pinch expand the drive in the notification bar. Now to test transfer speeds again
Wiping and flashing the OTA again seems to have fixed my external hard drive playback issues. Thanks again for verifying that yours works adrhodes.
i tried to transfer some images from phone and sd card to PC and it was a major nightmare like always with every samsung galaxy series i owned
is there some kind of retarded issue with these phones and why they never seem to get the usb transfers to work flawlessly?
it crashed my explorer windows about 10 times before very slowly i managed to transfer files in smaller chunks
it was calculating how much time it will take to transfer images. wtf i havent seen that since like windows 98.
i had to unplug my phone few times and close the explorer windows and start over because it was just freezing all the time
how do i fix this crap this shouldnt be happening in 2018 and with 800 dollar phone
MTP, baby.
Every modern android phone has an awful transfer experience. I'm now copying a 9GB backup and it's taking forever. I have to use the rear USB ports because without it I get a "Device is busy or disconnected" message.
As for a 'fix': use an official cable. Don't use front I/O if you have a desktop PC. piss about with different cables and ports until it works. Only transfer files in chunks.
Hi if possible try and transfer all or half your files to your sd card and then remove sd and insert it into the pc for better speeds. I've only ever transferred a few files from phone to pc, but I know that when I transfer multiple photos and or a rom or two at about 2 gigs a piece from internal to sd card it works fast. All i use is a sandisk 32gb extreme sd, not to special. I agree the mtp should not be slow in this day and age, i remember uploading a ton of photos to google photos with good internet and it got so slow I gave up so I defenitely feel your pain!
is there any fix for that? if i root the phone?
i did use original cable but front usb port. will try the rear port thank you
its kinda pain in the ass to take out the sd card and take off the case and look for a paper clip every time
this is really retarded to be having this issue in 2018 i think
