Can't copy files - Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi i'm having an issue since long time. I can't copy long files to my n8000 from my laptop and vice versa. if i have downloaded a custom rom and want to put it on my sd card or tablet, it copy the files up to 75 to 80 % after which it stop and my tablet reboot. This occur specially with large files( e.g a rom which is 1gb). Any idea what is the problem.

Nope, have no trouble with big files.
Is your tab rooted with a custom rom already?
Have you tried putting flash files on an sd card then transferring to your tab?
Before flashing though, if you are still stock I'd try to find out where the problem lies, your tab or your laptop as this is not normal. If you can try to transfer from another PC.... That will tell you if there's a problem with your tab or laptop or just the link with your laptop.

Thks for the response. Ya my tab is rooted and using Collective Edition v6 rom. I don't think there is a problem with my laptop as i can transfer larger files to my usb drive and even to my phone htc one x and my ipad. I don't get any problem while transferring large files to those three devices. I will try to see if the usb port have issue with it?

[Q] Impossible connect P3100 and Macbook pro Snow leopard

Hi everyone!
i Have this problem: when i plug my p3100 to my Macbook pro with Mac Os X Snow Leopard the Tab says that is connected and to choose if i want it mounted as an archieve or as a camera. when i check camera i can import phoos from the internal device memory, but i i check archieve nothing happens, with my Galaxy S Plus GT-I9001 when i do so i see the internal and external sd-card as archieve and i can use them as a normal usb drive, but this won't hapen with the p3100. so i tried to install Android File Transfer but it says that is impossible to connectto the device to restart and try again.
I have tried with stock ICS stock JB OTA Update and now with PAC-rom, but it never works ((
i also tried adb! and with adb devices it is detected but if i try to transfer somthing to it via adb push it takes a lot of time and when the process ends i do not have any file on the tab!!!
Can someone help me to figure out how to do connect my tab to the computer and transfer files to it??
Yeah, macs don't support MTP, so the "media device" connection option isn't going to work out of the box. Dunno why Android File Transfer is erroring out though. At this point maybe the simplest solution is to get a MicroSD card and reader and transfer the files by moving the card between devices and using ES File Explorer to move them wherever they need to go.

thanks for the info! yeah i think that that is the only workaround because airdroid and similar are just too slow

[Q] sdcard became read only

Hi, my friend has a galaxy tab 2 10" and it seems the sdcard became read only when transferring files from the computer through USB. I looked into it, and I can't figure out what's wrong.
Sorry if I'm a little too vague. I've tried the sdcard on computer, and seems to work fine. tablet seems to work fine writing to the sdcard. However, we can't transfer files TO the sdcard through the USB.
Ideas?

[Completed] [Q] Samsung GT-N8010 file copy question

good morning all!
i have a Samsung 10.1 GT-N8010 that i am running 4.4.2 on (updated via kies and rooted). it has a 128gb microsd card in it for storage (which by the way was seen in full capacity when inserted)
i have a topo GPS program on the tablet (Atlogis Topo USA) that i had previously purchased for my mega and note 3 phones. works super. when i first purchased the program , i went on and downloaded like 3gb of high res map tiles on my phone. i copied the map tile files off of the phone in the past, in hopes that id be able to copy them BACK to another device in the future (such as the N8010) and not have to go thru re-downloading them again as i live in the hills and while i do have DSL , it is SLOW SLOW SLOW, almost as bad as the frickin days of dial up sometimes.
i can get the files copied off of my computer onto my SD card, BUT i cant figure out how to copy them from the SD card TO the devices root. when i go thru the file explorer, i can explore the root of both the SD and device of course, and when im on the SD card, i can copy the files, but when i then go to the root of the device, there is no option to "paste" the files. (i am running 4.4.2 and have already set the permissions to fix the previous update problems)
of course i can copy the file set over to the device via USB cable plugged in to the device and my computer, but when i try to do that, the file set is so large that its like an 8-10 hour file copy.
any way to copy files like this directly from the SD card to the devices root?

Im not sure which file manager app you're using but I suggest one with root browser capabilities. You can move anything with those. Search play store for one
downloaded solid explorer. looks like it will work. copying the files to the SD card now , i will keep you updated.....

Copying mp3 files on Windows 10 Laptop to S8 Active via usb cable, problems

Got about 27GB of mp3 files on my Windows 10 Laptop. Attempted to copy mp3 files off Windows 10 Laptop to my S8 and here are some of the things I experienced....
1. I attempted to copy all my music, which include folders and files. Wouldn't copy all the music/files.
2. Tried to copy again and it doesn't even try to copy the files.
3. Some of the folders and files just disappeared.
4. I tried the process several times and it just seem broken
Anyways, just wondering how to do this, or what I am missing.
The laptop is updated and drivers too, and my S8 Active is running Oreo fwiw.
TY

Maybe your phone needs more memory? I would've done it folder by folder see if it pops up on the phone

I have over 30GB on my phone, and over 100GB free on my 256GB Samsung SD Card (new and fast). Tried both.

Check to see if you are using USB 3.0 ports They cause a lot of issues with file transfer and odin flashed
USB 2.0 ports are recommended
I set USB debugging in the Developer Options and things are working better. Had no idea about that one.

Error copying files from PC to S10e using USB cable

I have a weird issue when trying to copy multiple files from pc to phone, using an USB cable. In about 95% of cases, the copy process gets stuck at a random file... ("Copying..." and the file name is displayed meanwhile). After some time I get an error message "Cannot copy file <file name> . The device has either stopped responding or has been disconnected. Stop copying? / Skip this file / Cancel" . The file is always a different one.
The more files I try to copy, bigger the chances to fail. If I choose Skip, the copy continues but chances are it will get stuck at another file and so on.
Files are pictures, movies mp3s, it doesnt't seem to matter.
For the moment, the workaround is to repeat the copy process until the number of files in destination matches the source...
I can copy just fine anything (lots and lots of GB) from phone to PC, using the same USB cable, without adjusting it, before and after the failed copy from pc to phone.
Phone is Samsung S10e up to date
PC is a Windows 7 x64, all 4 USB ports behave the same.
USB cable looks fine as far as I can tell
I wonder if someone experienced something similar or has some idea on what to check.
For the next week I am limited to the hardware mentioned above.
What prog you use to copy?
Update:
Changed cable, no difference
Tried on another win7, same behaviour (error copying to phone, on random files)
Tried on win 10, copy from phone fine, copy to phone does not show error, yet randomly some files are not copied to phone (?!).
I used windows explorer to copy.

Make sure you get a high quality cable. Post a link to where you purchased your cables to warn others ^^
Both of them are original Samsung cables.

wow.
Having experienced similar troubles copying from PC (Win10 x64) to previous phones (S4mini) via USB cable, I now avoid this method. Instead, I copy files from PC to 64gig microSDcard in a USB thumb drive adaptor. Then I put the card into S10e and sometimes copy from card to internal storage. It's actually faster this way than from PC directly to S10e internal storage, especially when I want the files on both of my S10e's. This phone is really fast moving files from its external to internal storage.
