Can't copy large files to phone

Hey guys
I been unable to copy large files to my phone or the sd card while i use the mtp or camera method. I can copy small files without a problem, but when the file is 100mb or larger i will always get an error. Is there any fix for this?
I attached a picture of the error i get.

I just copied a 350MB file and played it back w/o any problems via USB.
How are you copying the file (USB/WiFi/?) and what platform/tools are being used?

I'm using windows 7 x64 server pack 1. I'm using the original usb it came it but no luck. Tried my nexus usb and still same problem. I always get that error. I can cope other files under 100mb without a problem.
Edit: I try to copy it by my computer were the device appears, do I need a software to copy files?

Welcome to the wonders of mtp!
Are you copying to the sd card? If so it could be a bad card. If it happens on internal storage also ..well you now know why mtp suxs ass.
You might want to try the usb storage mod although that only works for the sd card.
And no you should not need any special software mtp is supported in win7

Damn MTP crap..lol.. I kept trying with no luck, but i notice that the drivers always try to install when i plug and unplug the device. I have installed the drivers before, but the phone kept trying to install with fails. Is there a way to clean my pc of all samsung drivers so that i could try a fresh install again?

I was having the same issue. was pissing me off so badly. my problem was I was using the front USB on my computer. ( I built my own) So I switched it to a port in the back of the computer and it works no problems now. Was weird.....

I'm having the same problem on a mac laptop. I haven't tried a different computer but on the same mac, i didn't have problems with MTP on Galaxy Nexus.
It took some cursing and persistence to transfer my songs over...

GS3 is a crap I sell it for Xperia S. I wish I bought the Xperia S first. GS3 is too expensive and found out that Xperia S has better screen, camera.. And regarding the Quad Core of GS3, It doesn't do much compare to Xperia S, dual core is enough, Quad Core is their advertisement to sell their phones. Multitasking in Xperia S is enough. Opening 10 apps at the same time to make the Quad Core fully functional?? WTF 10 apps at the same time?!?

Carefully check

This error indicates that the GSIII is refusing to have crap music put on it.

I got it to work connecting it on a usb port on the back of my pc and by re-installing the drivers a few times. The copying speed is very slow compared to my old phone. Thanks for the help guys.

[Q] Nexus 5 Not fully detecting

Hi guys. I just rooted my nexus 5 and i used USBDview to uninstall all previous drivers as was stated in Wugs Toolit. Now whenever i connect my phone to the usb port.. it just says "this device can perform faster...." and thats it. I can't see the nexus device in My Computer or devices. i want to transfer files but i can't. please help!

I guess you rebooted PC. Then tried again. Can your device still interact with the toolkit? You removed drivers BEFORE rooting? Have you tried deselecting USB debugging (shouldn't be necessary) to see if you get access? I'm sure others who have had similar problems will help. In the meantime, you can transfer files using the network component on a file manager. I use Estrong but have used File Expert and Ghost Commander as well as Astro File.

Yupp i tried rebooting removed drivers, reinstalled etc. Even my Nexus 4 isn't detecting now lol! the MTP doesn't detect but PTP the camera interface works. Which is weird. I tried putting usb debugging on and off. Nothing helps.
I tried using another PC, and it works. Something messed up with my laptop i guess? Any solution.. other flash drives get detected but not the nexus.

Device Manager Says Samsung Galaxy Android Hone and under it Android ADB Device or something like that..
It doesn't say Nexus 5!

Exact same issue with my Nexus 5 and my VAIO Pro 13. Can't figure out what to do to make it works. Even tried reinstalling windows from scratch. No luck.

help needed.. very urgent

i need help guys.. aftr upgrading it seems that my laptop (running win8.1) cant transfer media files to my n5.. its showing charging after m connecting but not showing n5 as a drive..

Go to settings - storage - click on top right drop down - USB USB computer connection - make sure MTP is checked

ya it is checked

I had a similar issue after rooting. A fresh wipe and rom install fixed the issue. Maybe start there?
I'm sorry. I just realized you might not be rooted. You may also try the factory images...

My laptop has Win8.1U1 and it works fine. It's probably your drivers not registering correctly, download the USB driver off Google's site, remove your current one in Device Manager and install the new one.

Things I can think of
Reinstall Driver
Try another USB cable - sometimes the data pins might be damaged.
Try disabling the Anti Virus
Try another PC
Hope that helps.

What exactly did you try?
Set the usb connection as mtp?
enable usb debugging?
Tried another cable?
If you're just wanting to transfer files, you can use a wifi transfer app where you access the phone through a web browser once the wifi app is started on the phone.

If you got your phone locked with a swipe, pin or password, you need to unlock it first

Honor 6 plus & Android File Transfer Issues

Hello everyone,
I was using my Honor 6 plus and android fil transfer without any problem for the past month. But suddenly instead of having the all the files stocked in my phone available on the software window, i've an empty window (as shown in the picture below). With this i can transfer my files from my computer but i can't choose were to put them, and the most problematic is i can't transfer files from my phone (cause i can't access any).
I checked most of the developper options (the mtp is enable).
This issue starts after update to emui 4.0. Befor that i rooted my phone using kingroot.
The strange thing is when i try with my girlfriends phone (honor 5c emui 4.0) android file transfer work properly.
Dose someone have an idea ?
Cheers

I can't see a picture. Android file transfer? You're using a Mac then? Did you select files from the notification panel after connecting USB?

Hi,

Do you have same issue on a Windows computer? Reinstall Android file transfer.
Try with USB debugging enabled

Looking like the phones fault. Try on Windows. Would not be cool to do a reset cos of USB connection problems

Have you tried a factory reset after a nandroid backup?

windows the only solution . MAC sometimes can recognize MTP . . Some times only .

Yes it does. Funny I forgot to mention and I use it always. Root required btw. Never liked MTP mode.

It sometimes screws up my SD card tho when it doesn't disconnect properly and you need to reboot phone to show the changes made. ?
