hi,
i have had my nexus 5 for 5 days now and so far its perfect. the only problem is transferring files. i first noticed when i was putting all my data from my old phone onto it and it kept hanging, so i had to individually tranfer everything bit by bit which was a pain.
i also tried moving my music from my phone memory to google drive using astro and this starts and does a few % and then crashes/hangs and i have to cancel it.
Anyone experienced these problems or have a fix?
Thanks!!!

I am using Mango (7.10.8107.79) on my Samsung Focus v1.3.
I have installed gMaps (free v 1.24.0.0) and Endomondo Sports Tracker (free v 6.1.0.0) which use GPS. Whenever I have data connection and location enabled and use any of the two applications, phone restarts everytime. I have started observing this behavior after updating both the apps just 2-3 days ago. Earlier this was not observed.
Has anybody observed the same? What can be done to determine what is causing this?
Can anybody please help me? I am now experiencing random restarts. Once Phone restarted when I had kept it charging by connecting to my laptop, other time it restarted when I was browsing music in Zune.
Can this be due to faulty SD Card? I have waited to see any reply before doing a reset.
Yes it can be caused by SD cards... And yes I'd go for a hardreset.
Are you on stock roms or on a custom rom?
the main reason i left this platform random reboots.Soon it will be from pictures and everywhere wait and see!:crying:
I would suspect a faulty or too slow SD -card. Too slow SD card caused random resets on my HTC 7 Pro. Check the card, also hardreset and trying a different rom could be a route I would try.
Thanks all for your replies. I am on stock ROM. I will hard reset the phone after removing SD Card to see what happens.
I have had a 64GB stock TF700T and dock for over a year now and other than having a digitizer replaced under warranty, it has been relatively trouble-free – I‘m one of those lucky owners not having severe lag problems, etc. But recently it started rebooting randomly several times a day, even occurring when in sleep mode. I tried a number of different things to isolate the issue but the only thing that appeared to work was removing and leaving out the 64GB SanDisk microSD card. It was formatted exFAT so I copied the files off of it and reformatted it as NTFS and copied the files back to it and put it back in. Still got reboots. That’s when I noticed that the PC copies of two of the mp4 videos I copied back on to it did not show picture-based thumbnails and when I tried to play them, media player said there was a problem with them. I deleted them from the microSD card and now, 40 hours later, I have yet to see a reboot. I can’t prove it, but I think the files were originally corrupted when copied from my PC to the card in the tablet.
Anyone see similar problems?

A follow-up: This seemed to only reduce the frequency of reboots, not eliminate them. I came across some discussions from the Sept timeframe regarding reboots associated with Chrome Beta, which I had installed recently. I uninstalled this and have now been running for 70 hours without an issue.
Hi there,
Just got this tablet not long ago, using brand new Sandisk Ultra 128GB Micro SD (Tried 2 different ones both brand new). Issues was on both stock rom, stock rom + Root and now Blissy Pop rom also. I tried both my laptop & desktop using different cables, I also tried different file systems to the SD card (NTFS/exFat/Fat32)
Basically problem is whenever I copy a large file (Like a 6-10gb mkv movie file) the copy progress will go on in windows and when it's due to finish or sometimes halfway through I will get an error message about the device being disconnected or unrecognized.
No idea whats causing it, I can copy files fine directly on the card with a USB reader, its when I try to plug the tablet with USB to my computers that the problem happens, and copying smaller files work fine.
Any ideas what's causing this I'm running out of ideas.
I've also been unable to succesfully copy files over from AirDroid to the microSD directly.
I have had similar issues with every Android device that I have ever owned. Only with large files, over 2 GB I would say. Even file transfer through TWRP. (I point that out since it takes the Android version out of the picture.)
My solution? Take the MicroSD out, plug it into your PC directly, finish the transfer and re-insert.

Oh wow, well atleast I'm glad it's not just me, I have been spending so much time trying to figure out what was happening :/
That makes it so inconvenient if you just wanted to quickly add a video file >2gb before leaving or such.
So nobody else had any success working around this?
Hi,
I've got an nVidia Shield Tablet (not rooted) with a 64GB card formatted as internal storage.
In the past two days or so I have noticed that the battery drains surprisingly fast, and have noticed that it is rebooting by itself, particularly when I'm trying to copy files over.
I'm leaving tonight for a couple of months so I was loading some useful documents and files but then realized that not only was it rebooting often, but none of the files were retained after the tablet reboots itself. I tried to delete some files and when it rebooted those files reappeared too. In file manager the storage space is now at a constant 38.08GB, if I add anything or delete anything when it reboots it just goes back to that 38.08GB mark and all the other file changes would have been lost. However, all the videos / documents / pictures / apps that I had on there still all work with no problems.
Oh and as I was playing with it just now Google Play Services just crashed, which was something that I had seen once before in the last couple of days as well.
Are there any diagnostics tests I can run? I tried mounting the SD card on my PC but since it's formatted as internal storage it could not be recognized by Windows so chkdsk does not work.
Any help would be appreciated! I really hope I can get this sorted out before I have to leave, since I was really counting on being able to use it to do some work. Thanks!
Edit: It seems to have fixed itself somehow... how odd.
Hi, i have just tried transferring about 120GB of files from my PC to My OP6 and its ridiculously slow.
I have done this in the past via twrp and its been okay speeds from what i remember but on this phone its still really slow.
i have noticed it takes ages for it to calculate files and then when it starts transferring it wont give me the usual pop up box with transfer speeds etc.
i have read that ADB Push is the best way to do this but thought i'd ask here first for any advice.
i have a fast internet speed
phone is rooted and has TWRP
PC is decent.
any help at all is great as ive been stuck with this for weeks and can't leave my phone plugged into my PC for days
TIA
If i remember correctly, it only uses USB 2, that's why it's slow. You could instead try to do it over the network, it would probably be way faster.
Some file manager Apps on the Play Store allow to connect to Windows shared folders, maybe it could be your solution !
Usually what I do is drag and drop about 5 to 10 GB at a time. It does take a few minutes but it doesn't take as long if you drag 120gb all at once.
