Thanks for this but tablet doesn't have this feature

I'm having the same problem on lion :/

Try Airdroid. Install the app. It supposedly transfers files extremely quick via wireless, but it's not actually wireless. I connects to your wirleess connection in your house or office (Wherever you are) and you can transfer things back and forth. Extremely quick, faster than normal wirless bwecause you're actually using the speeds from you connection of computer to router. I haven't done it yet but I hear it's better than using kies even if you are on Snow Leopard like me. Getting my 32 Grey Note tomorrow from Amazon. I was hoping Android file transfer would work like it does on my Galaxy Nexus, but sounds like it's a no go from what I'm hearing on here. Give Airdroid a try and let me know how it works.

Airdroid is working very well for me. Just transfered 10 gigs of text books easily and quickly. Looks like Airdroid has a ton of other features too.
Thank you for the suggestion!!

Howzit, thanks for the tip cc1995, I tried to hit thanks, but it wasn't working. Great program, lots of potential, but the only drawback was that I couldn't access my external SD card on it.
Thanks anyways.:good:

Bluetooth File Transfer

I'm fed up with the clunky way which bluetooth transfers files between my MS laptop and my HTC Touch Pro (and any other device it would seem).
I'm fed up with three or four attempts to get it to work in the first place, I'm fed up with having to approve every single data connection - I have after all paired the devices, please just transfer the files.
Does anyone know of a decent bit of software, either winmo or Windoze that will allow me to browse the other device, grab or send the files I want and just do it without all the fuss I seem to be getting?
Thanks in advance.

I had it, but couldn't get it to work on an ad-hoc (peer to peer) connection, then it stopped working altogether.
Maybe I should try again...thanks.
maybe you should just get a usb card reader. or an adapter if your laptop has a card reader already.
I have a USB card reader, and leads to connect the phone to the computer, but this is the 21st century folks, and I have two devices that can connect without wires, but it's about as easy, and friendly as, well, something that isn't easy or friendly.
The phone should see the computer, and vice versa, and file transfer should be as easy as if they were the same device.

Transfer large data from PC with XP

Hi all!,
I have to transfer about 10Gb thought USB from a XP pc.
The problem is that it seems that after 10min (more o less), the connection is broken (I think it's to charge the tablet) so I can't transfer the whole data.
Is there any method to avoid this behaviour?
I tried to deactivate the auto turn off of the screen but it didn’t work. The only way is to use the tablet during the transfer but since it takes a lot of time I would prefer another method.
Any idea?
Thanks!
PD: I was reading the foro for a long time but this is my first post!
Strange ! I've got no trouble copying movies from PC to TF700 in USB (both on XP and 7)
But I found a faster to do this : Airdroid (Wifi)
Install apk on your tab. On your computer, open navigator and go to web.airdroid.com.
Enter the password give by your tab.
Enjoy !

I use airdroid for my transfer as well. I don't think screen turn off should matter. But in any event, how about giving a try on airdroid and make sure you have WIFI set to on always even when screen is off. Usually 1GB file takes I believe somewhere 5-10 minutes for me so by simple math 10GB may take up to 50 minutes to an hour and half. Alternative would be to simply copy to microsd.
If it is a shared drive you can use ES File Explorer to copy.

Try enabling Performance mode - otherwise when the screen goes out that tablet might automatically disable the USB port after a certain amount of time to save battery.

(airdroid is not a solution for me....I don't know if my desktop has wifi (it's plugging directly to the wifi router, will it work?), anyway after the last news, I'll wait and if JB doen't fix the issue, I'll try to use airdroid)
If you have the dock and a USB drive you should be able to transfer to the drive first and then to the tablet. It's an additional step but it may work in your case.

ES explorer can be another possibility.

Get a 16 gig micro sd card with full size adaptor. Transfer the files directly from pc. Probably the fastest way to do it. If you have usb adaptor you can use a usb drive and do the same thing.

Airdroid does not require both devices to be on WiFi, it requires both devices to be connected to the same router / LAN. IOW, if you connect your tablet via WiFi to the same LAN as your computer is connected to, it will work.
OnAir is another solution as well, but works slightly differently - it creates a temporary FTP daemon that runs on the device that you can then connect to. Again, same LAN for best results.

[Q] Initiate Bluetooth transfer FROM tablet - how?

I'd like to be sitting on a beach with a beautiful Irish redhead - ah, excuse me already wandering ... I'd like to be sitting outside and if I need something from my PC, I'd like to fire up a bluetooth app and connect and get what I want. BUT it seems that everything is initiated from the PC.
Can someone point me in the right direction (both to the beach and the solution)?
But everything

You could set up a server on your computer, and access it via your tablet with an app like ES File Manager. Are you trying to send files or receive them from your tab?

I've been trying to get ES FM to work, it starts the BT service then spends hours (if let it) trying to get the file list from the PC - they are paired, but traveling from the tablet to the PC never works, but I can reverse it and transfer from the PC to the Tablet.
I'd really like it both ways. I also have Medevils (sp) Bluetooth File Transfer, but that can't connect to the PC.
SO, it would seem I'm missing the drivers, or config on the PC.

Its impossible to access EVERYTHING on your computer. For obvious security reasons.
What i would recommend, is simply creating a folder on your Windows PC, sharing that file across your network, then using ES navigate to that networked folder. Then, if you need something that isnt in that networked folder, use VNC to access and control your PC and simply copy the file to the networked folder. Then you got what you want

The sharing isn't the problem - it's the lack of being able to connect via BT. I can via WiFi but do not want to due to where I am.

Well think about it. If I could push files from my computer to my tablet, pretty much anyone with Bluetooth can...
Wi-Fi is your only option..

I DO push files TO my tablet from my PC. But the reason no one else can is that they're paired and the tablet will/can only accept files from the PC, anything else and I'm notified and have to allow. I wait too long and the sender errors out.
I can do it with WiFi in both directions, and with BT from PC to tablet. I just can't FROM Droid to PC.
THAT is the basis of my original post.

No i understand what you are saying. I should have worded my post more clearly.
What i am trying to say is that you can only initiate a Bluetooth transfer from the device sending the file for security reasons. You cant "pull" a file for instance. But i would try to use WiFi to take control of your PC then push the file to the tablet via VNC from the tablet. So for instance, you are controlling the PC from your tablet, now you have full control as if you were sitting in front of your computer. Then to send a file from your tablet to the computer, just use Root Explorer or a similar browser app that allows sharing with bluetooth, then send the file from the tablet, use the VNC view to control your computer and accept the connection and file.

Thanks for clarifying. Now that I've thought about it, I realize that all of my BT exchanges have been a transfer from a device, they've never initiated a pull. For all the years I've used BT it's never occurred to me what was happening - in Windows a coupla clicks and " ... do you want to send a file or receive ..." yet even when you say receive, you have to move to the OTHER device to start it. hum...... being too poor to pay more attention I guess that's what happens.
As far as WiFi, I've used that in this senario, but we're staying in an RV park for awhile, and although they have good WiFi ( they should, I built it), it's too slow. I think I've simpler solution to elegant idea, the LAN Shares plug-in with Total Commander allows back and forth transfers, just tunnel inside a VPN.
Thank you again for clarifying - I could have died trying trying to get this to work.

[Q] App/Function for instant transfer of photos from Phone to PC via BT

I've been searching for a couple of days now, and I cannot find anything useful. I am working in a corporate environment. I have a PC with a direct Ethernet line to the internet and internal networks. I do not have wifi available, but I do have a BT adapter of my own installed on the PC which works.
I take a lot of pictures for visual aids and work instructions here, which I use my LG G2 for exclusively. I cannot stay tethered to the PC via USB all the time, so Bluetooth is my only real feasible option for wireless transfer. What I would like is to have the photos I take transfer immediately to the host PC without having to initiate it. Bluetooth takes quite a while to transfer large files, but there should be enough time between taking each picture to allow the transfers to complete. I cannot afford the bandwidth on my carrier to upload through the internet either. Does such an app or mod exist to achieve this functionality?
Thanks!
Michael

Thank you and I appreciate the effort, but as I stated above I do not have wifi available on my work PC. Also, this app does not immediately transfer to the PC, which is the functionality I really need. I'm guessing from the lack of responses, such a thing does not exist yet. :-\

I think Bluesharing for Bluetooth may do what you're looking for. This is a paying app though. I've not tried it myself, so try at your own risk.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.my.blueshare
One personal note on this: this type of app is bound to drain your battery within minutes. I would personally go for a solution to manually sync once or twice per day using the USB connection, using a bat file or similar to automate some of the transfer. Just my personal opinion.

One app that will solve file transfer problems?

Hi, Hoping there are some out there that have experience with file transfer from an Android phone. I am somewhat new to the arena and it looks like there is apps out there but I'm wondering if there is an all in one for my needs... I would like to be able to:
Transfer larger files from my phone to my NAS (Diskstation) and my PS4. At home wireless might not be the fastest but probably the most practical. I have tried BubbleUpnp but it looks like all I can do is stream from the phone to a device, not transfer the files. If I have that wrong please let me know. Also I've had times when in Hotel rooms the wireless is not strong enough to transfer files, and would like to be able to transfer from phone to PS4 over USB if possible. If that amounts to a couple different apps that's ok, just was trying to make this as simple as possible. Thanks in advance for any help!
Edit: I have a Motorola Droid Turbo 2

Ok, that didn't go well.. How about just this. I have an SD card formatted to FAT32. I plug my phone via cable into my ps4, select transfer files in the automatic menu that pops y on the phone and my ps4 doesn't recognize it. Is there a way to get my phone to recognize the storage while in the phone and through USB? Must I take it out of the phone and put into a USB reader? Thanks for any help..

You do have a few options:
1. get an OTG (on the go) micro usb to full usb (female) adapter, attach a usb stick to your phone using the adapter, copy the files to the stick and pack to the ps4
2. ES File Explorer is an app that supports file transfer over http (amongs other things) and through it's help section it shows you how to do it if you do not know how. however that requires that the ps4's internal drive is shared over your network.
Hope that helps

Here's the thing.
It depends on the phone itself. Some phones, when connected to pc/other devices are recognised as mass storage devices (like any other usb stick).
Most phones though, especially after android 4.4 are recognised as mtp (media transfer protocol) devices, meaning that it depends on the target device (pc/ps4/etc) on how its is going to be handled or managed.
