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.)

Hello,
I'm using the Dutch T-Mobile version of this phone and I discovered my USB connection is really slow. It takes minutes for files like mp3's to transfer to my card.
I once had a better speed but that was after a hard reset. In the meantime I've had several hard resets and the USB speed is really slow.
And no I haven't installed any of the t-mobile software crap installation that starts when booting.
Anyone any software patches, registry patch or whatever...
If so please give me a download location.
Thanks already!
I use a card reader for copying big files like mp3s and TT maps.
I am trying to figure out how to automate the weekly transfer of files from my computer to my phone (htc touch cruise).
Each week, I have some live radio shows which are automatically downloaded via bittorrent to my computer (all legal). What I would like to do is to have the files moved automatically onto the storage card of my phone whenever I either activesync with the home computer, or connect to the home network via 802.11.
So far, here's what I've come up with (using activesync):
1. Set up home computer to automatically move the downloaded files to the "sync files" folder on my home computer (can do this easily).
2. Whenever the phone is plugged in, the mp3 files are auto transferred to the phone via activesync's sync files feature.
What I can't figure out is how to change the folder the synced files are saved to on the ppc - can I set that activesync feature to save to a specific folder (say "/storage card/radio shows")?. The files I want to regularly transfer over are 50 - 150 megs, so they absolutely have to go to the sd card.
Is there another (better) way to do this? Somehow pull it off via wifi?
Well, I did a little more poking around and found mightysync which appears to offer syncing to sd card storage. I'll give it a whirl tonight.
I'm still curious if anyone else has some slick syncronization setups though...
Hey!
Well I have the following problem, which is most annoying, since it disables me from transfering some things I need.
The deal is: Whenever I switch to Mass storage mode (connection to the PC), I can't transfer any files to my Omnia. When using the phone in this mode (while being connected to the PC), it becomes less responsive. When I use the computer and say.. try to transfer some files.. "My Computer" won't even open for me to access the mobile phone.
And when I switch to Active Sync, I can acces my storage card without any problems, transfer files, watch movies etc..
Now I've searched for a solution, but haven't come up with any, so please, help me out
Thanks!
I loved my xoom running HC and now that I have JB, it's driving me nuts. First it was the loss of flash and therefor all TV sites like abc.com and more importantly Amazon Prime. I did the side load thing and flash si back, but my audio is out of synch with the video and video is often choppy and unwatchable. I can almost live with that except now I can can't even transfer movie files (AVIs and MP4s). I don't think it's a JB issue as this just happened and I've been on JB for a couple of weeks.
Here's what happens. Stock wifi Xoom. I plug in via usb. Computer running Win7 64 bit sees the xoom just fine. I can drag a file from either the internal storage, or the sd card onto my computer. But when I try to drag any file from the computer to the xoom, I get an error message saying "The device is either not connected or is not connected". I've looked everywhere and I haven't found anyone with this problem.
HELP! Any ideas?
EDIT to ADD: Weirder still, I tried a Windows system restore. Now I can drag a jpeg or .doc file, but no movie files, regardless of size or format. CRAZY!
Can't move cd music downloaded to itunes to my phone. I did figure out how to move it through bluetooth. Bluetooth will take 5-8 minutes per song x 4000 songs. I am no IT wizard. I have searched the web and watched videos with terms like File manager FTP, MTP, bootloader, MI pc suite, USB activation etc.. I did turn on USB debugging thanks to a good video. I'm not sure if i needed to turn it on but its on. This music is my music placed in itunes not purchased music from apple. I made a folder and am dragging the music from itunes to the folder then wifi to phone too slow. Any help would be appreciated.
Solved not sure how. All of a sudden my laptop made noise when cable was plugged in so they are now talking. On my phone a bubble pops up "use USB for" and then three choices. no data transfer, file transfer/ android auto and transfer photos (PTP). I clicked on file transfer/android auto. I then had to create a new file for iTunes music and drag and drop several hundred cd's into folder. Once all music was in folder I had to highlight every song (over 4000) and drag them to the phone now located in the task bar on left. There were some hiccups like songs duplicating and so on. This was better than bluetooth by far but I,m sure there are easier ways. It took probably 20 hours over 3 days.
Maybe this can help anyone. Try to connect the cable to the USB port in the back of your pc. I tried it and it worked
