Hello every one.
I have noticed a unfortunate feature : when I plug the Galaxy-S in Slave mode (using the cable provided by Samsung) on the TF101, it doesn't recognize anything, just charge its battery.
Is there a way to :
1° ideally sync the Galaxy with the TF101 (retrieve contacts, sms, mails etc...)
2° get 3G connection (yeah I dream )
3° At least get access to the SDs that are on the Galaxy (internal and external)
Thank you very kindly for the replies.

I don't about 1 & 2 but when I connect my dell streak by usb, I can access the SD card.

I guess some drivers are missing, because Samsung has it's own drivers for the SD card.
Tried it with a HTC Wildfire also, same result. Mounts it as usbdisk1 and that's all can't access.
Will look into it lateron.
I use my SGS cellular connection for my Transformer by simply turning the phone into a WiFi hotspot...
USB-tethering would be better, because of the horrible battery drain while using your phone as hotspot.
Yeah USB tethering is ideal but we really need a USB dongle before anyone is going to be interested in developing a solution imo
For now wifi tether works great for me for the rare instance where i'm outside a real wifi network
You can still connect the USB to charge the phone and use the wifi tethering to provide internet access

Use Google services.

Use Galaxy's bulit-in WiFi Hotspot function or use bluetooth dial-up.
3° At least get access to the SDs that are on the Galaxy (internal and external)
Don't know

I've searched for this for 2 hours so, trigger-happy users, don't flame me.
I was looking for a samba server style app that would make the Hd2 appear as a drive on the computer.
I presume these type of network transfers would be faster than a standard ftp or usb (it
If you need further clarification then have a look at this app I was using on my old N95 called SymNAS:
http://symnas.com/Products/ProductInfo.aspx
Basically it will turn the phone into a NAS drive (Network Attached Storage)
If anyone can help me, it would be much appreciated.
I seriously doubt it would faster than usb ...
Unless you have a 400MB wireless network ...
but regardless of speed I have looked for this as well, there are apps that let you transfer files to the phone over wifi but have not seen one that lets it act as a network drive ... yet ....
The HTC network plugin lets you map a drive on your phone though ....
So would you recommend:
a. remove micro sd and use an adapter
b. use usb cable and choose mass storage drive
are they both the same thing?
Are there any other methods of high speed file transfer that i am unaware of ?
I used to have an application that I could turn on, and when connect to wi-fi it would act as if I had it connected via USB, eg I could access f: removable disk to put/remove files on/off my sd card without having to fumble around with plugging my usb cable in, cause only the back ports work and it's such a pain having to go in and out of my desk and such. I used to have it but cannot for the life of me remember the name.
help pls! <3
try MyPhoneExplorer, in my opinion a very useful app and its free on the market.
u also need to install the software on your pc, install from fjsoft.at/en/

I am looking for a tweak\tool\registry hack (if possible) to have a Charge Only Mode for Windows Mobile 6.5 if at all it is possible. Most of the times, I am at office using my HD2 (Dual boot with 6.5 and DarkStone Android ) connected to the Laptop and it would be great if I can just connect it to my laptop without choosing either of the three options
1. ActiveSync
2. USB Storage Mode
3. Internet Sharing
P.S : I did lot of search for this option but was unable to find it and hence started this thread...but I will be more than happy if anyone can redirect me to an existing thread if any, for the same issue.
When your phone is charging off the laptop do you actually use any apps on it?
I'm like you in that I spend 2 days a week with my phone charging from the laptop, but I never use it for anything other than phone calls, so selecting disk drive does the job for me.
Any apps I'd need, I'd make sure were installed on the device.

Better use the active sync or the mass storage mode..As it is you wont be needing to install apps on your memory card thanks to the massive storage of the HD2 compared to the older WM devices...This shouldn't be a problem IMHO...
Cheers.
Ive got a really easy fix for this, just use a different cable, you can get cables or adaptors that will charge only and wont sync. When you want to sync just change the cable or take off the adaptor.
btw... such an adaptor is only £2.50 from amazon for my phone

This doesn't stop the action as such, but when you connect your phone to PC, with the 3 options you listed, there should be a a check box at the bottom "Don't ask me again", so whatever you choose will automatically happen next time (choosing USB storage will therefore not ativate ActiveSync/Device Centre on your PC. This can also be found under Settings->Other (miscellaneous settings)->USB to PC (see attachment).
Or, just use a wall socket charger?
Hi,
Thanks for your replies ! The reason I asked this question is because I do not have a Data Plan on Phone. I only use Wifi at home and office and Active Sync kills it. Data storage mode won't let me use the Storage which I kinda need (Don't ask me why? ) and ofcourse Internet sharing Mode just sends the phone into a crazy 'Connecting 3G Network'...loop.
Anyways, I think using the Charge Only Cable should do the trick for now..But I still feel that this mode will be helpful for few rares like me...Love tis mode in Android.

ActiveSync does not kill my Wifi - make sure the 'Allow wireless connections on device...' is checked under File->Connections Settings. Also ActiveSync should allow your phone to use your PC's internet connection (pass through) anyway.
The other thing to try is to delete the mobile device from within ActiveSsync as if you've never synced it before and when you next connect it it will ask you to set up a relationship but click cancel and - viola - should now just charge.

No "Allow Wireless Connection on Device" option. I am using Windows 7.. Not sure if it is present in WMDC.
ActiveSync Passthrough does not work..I am on a encrypted network with authentication based Proxies..whole bunch of them.....
I do not want to kill the ActiveSync relationship since it syncs everything with my PC.
I think I am bothering a lot over this stupid requirement.. so I will just close this thread (If I can) but if I find anything I will post it here, for someone else who might be in similar situation.
Thanks anyways...XDA rocks !!!

Hello People,
I am using Samsung galaxy si9003. I am trying to connect it to my LED TV via USB through 'USB Mass storage' option. it gets connected i.e. i am to see the contents in the memory card on my tv screen, but after 4 to 5 seconds it gets disconnected. i think there is some problem in the phone which is preventing the connection for a extended time period.
Could someone help please?
it seems to me that the function is not available for our i9003
only the i9000
enjoy google bro

No dude, this ideally should be a functionality of any phone with memory card (mass storage) provision.
1. i tried connecting my old nokia phone (express music) to my TV's USB port, by selecting the mass storage connection in the phone setting and it works. same way my friend's HTC phone also works with my TV.
2. when you select the USB mass storage, the phone memory card is treated just like any other pen drive storage.
3. even my i9003 gets connected in this way, but it get disconnected immediately after the connection is established.
there is some process in the phone that terminates the connection with the TV, dont know what it is....

Well.... Odd enough. When you say the phone turn into storage device, why I never experienced this problem on computer? Probably because lack of the USB Driver.

well the connection gets disconnected soon enough beccause of the conflict created between the internal and external storage of your device.. this is something you should know.... As LoLa said this is not possible for I9003 but still if you wanna try your luck then I suggest you to remove your SD card and then connect to TV and see what happens
Hi,
I have a rooted TF700 and a rooted Nexus S both running CM10.1. Is it possible to connect a USB cable from the dock of the Infinity to the Nexus S and use its network connection? If I plug a cable in then the USB tethering option in Settings is greyed out.
I imagine this would involve the use of a different kernel - I'm willing to try and make my own if I need to and someone can point out what config option needs to be compiled in.

If you do it, add the ability for two android devices to be connected together, one as host and the other as attached media device or attached storage so they can exchange files.
Regarding internet sharing, I do this now with my tab and my phone but over wifi. I just toggle my phones wifi hotspot (or you can tether for free with PDANet and FoxFi; depends on carrier - on Verizon fails to be able to download market apps so was dysfunctional for me) and connect the tabs wifi to the phones wifi shared internet (definition of a wifi hotspot). Waaaay better, no wires. And works on stock or unlocked/rooted/ROMd.

This is already possible using the Prime/Infinity dock's USB port I believe. Using the micro USB port on the tablet itself would not be possible as it registers as a client not a host.

Yep, this already works fine using the built-in Android hotspot. My issue is that my phone's battery dies in a couple of hours doing this. I want to use USB because it would use much less power on both the phone and the tablet (and the phone would actually charge while plugged into the dock!).
Actually it seems to work already! I was being less than smart and had forgotten to turn on 'USB tether' on the phone. It's a pity there's no notification on the tablet to show it has an internet connection via USB though.
