Copy paste text between devices. - General Questions and Answers

I noticed there are some questions on this forum that relate to copying text between phones and PC's.
I'm an independent developer and have written a free app that does just that. It runs as a service on both windows and android. It works over LAN. And it allows you to do 2 things:
1. You can copy text from android to your PC by simply copying some text in android (Long press -> copy) and then pasting it in Windows (CTRL+V or right click -> paste)
2. You can copy text from PC to android by simply copying some text in Windows (CTRL+C or right click -> copy) and then pasting it in Android (long press -> paste)
Wondering why you would need this?
Have you ever wanted to copy paste a URL from your android device to your PC to look at it on a bigger screen? Ever wanted to send a text message by typing it on your PC? Ever looked up a route description on your computer and realize you had to type in the exact same address in your GPS client? Did you ever e-mail yourself because you needed some text on another device?
No? Well then you probably don't need it at all. Sorry to have wasted your time

managing program folders

I am flabbergasted: I can't find a way to manage the folders in Programs. How do I create an application sub folder and how do I move applications into it? This should be intuitive but I just don't find it. Thanks for your help
Using a file explorer (I use Resco), navigate to Windows>Start Manu>Programs. Then Menu>New Folder. You can then move or copy shortcuts as you wish. If you're going to be doing a lot of this, you can also just do it from your PC via Activesync>Exlplore or by using a remote control program like Pocket Controller.
thanks emesbe, but I probably wasn't clear: what I am trying to manage is the icons in "Programs" (e.g. Media, Tools, Games...). How do I move applications in or out? How do I create a new folder of applications?
We may be ships passing in the night here, but I think the answer I gave you is what you are looking for. "Programs" is in the Start Menu subdirectory in Windows. You can rename, move or create new folders in Programs and then put whatever shortcuts you want into them.
It took me a while to figure out what you meant. I still find the process very unintuitive. But thanks a lot
Consider Using A PC
If you have a PC configured with Activesync, why not use it to make the changes. It's a lot easier using a mouse and keyboard, and the familiar Windows interface over Resco or Total Commander.
If you don't want to sync your Fuze to the PC, that's OK, just click cancel on the first PC popup, and you can still "explore" the device from your PC.
Then, from the Activesync window on the PC, click explore, navigate to Windows (takes a while to load) / Start Menu, and move things around to your heart's content using your mouse.
Some files or folders may be marked read only or system. You can sometimes change this from the PC using right-click/properties. Sometimes, you will need to use Resco or TC from the device to change these attributes, but you can then drag/drop from the PC.

How can I export my Shazam tagged songs list?

Before formatting my TD2 I made a full backup.
Now I want to transfer my Shazam tagged songs list back.
Simple copy paste from the backup is not working.
Where Shazam is keeping the list of tagged songs?
How do I export that list?
__________
Update: found it!
Can someone please open this attached shazam.db (from shazam for wm 6.5 ) and return the song list , date and time in some other format? xls, cvs etc.
Thanks!
Update:
Shazam.db file in aplication data\shazam\folder is where all tags are stored.
Did you have any luck with this? I was hoping to do the same thing, but I hit a wall when I realized that I don't know how to access files on my Droid's internal storage. Would you mind pointing me in the right direction?
Found nothing so far.
Anyone?
Incorrect....
Either the htc hero has a different file structure or this information is inaccurate....
There is no such file path.
I whipped a quick app (attached below) that can back up the shazam database file to your SDCard (in folder "shazambackup") and restores it need be.
Also you can export the Tagged songs to xml (saved as "exports.xml" in the "shazambackup" folder).
Next i'll probably parse the xml to a more readable format. Maybe CSV? or just Plain Text? Any ideas are welcome!
Let me know if you have any issues. So far i've only tested it on my G1. Must also have a rooted phone for any of this to work.
Can you please open this shazam.db (from wp6.5) and return the song list , date and time in some other format? xls, cvs etc.

bump.
Anyone can help?
See first post.
You're dealing with mostly Android here, you may want to ask in a WM or phone specific forum.

Does not work properly on Desire. Opens the app after installation but "backup" button does not create the backup file and "Export to XML" makes the app force close without exporting anything.
About the export feature - the CSV version would probably be the best.
Thanks!

Solution with SQLite
Hi everybody,
I found a solution to export the list via SQLite. I had to find it for myself as I found nothing on the web, but I put it here, so perhaps somebody else is looking for such a solution as well.
This explanation is about how to get Shazam's data base file from your Android phone, access it on your computer and export a list of your tagged songs.
1. COPY FILE FROM PHONE
The data is stored in the file on your Android:
/data/data/com.shazam.android/databases/library.db
You have to copy this file to your Computer to work with it. Probably everybody does this in a different way. Mine was probably a bit more difficult than necessary, there should be simpler ways (e.g. with ssh / scp), but mine was: Opening the Android app "Terminal" and typing in the command:
Code:
cp /data/data/com.shazam.android/databases/library.db /sdcard
Then the file was copyed on the sdcard, which I could access to with my computer via USB cable.
Then you need a program which can open SQLite-Files. There is the command line tool (at least in Linux) "sqlite3", but also graphical tools for Linux/Windows/Mac like the "sqlitebrowser" (Link: sourceforge.net/projects/sqlitebrowser).
2. OUTPUT FROM DATA BASE:
In every of these tools, you can execute SQL-commands. For my output I chose:
Code:
SELECT a.name , t.title, t.subtitle, t.album, t.subgenre_name, tg.short_datetime, tg.location_name , tg.lat, tg.lon
FROM artist a, artist_track at, track t, tag tg
WHERE a.id = at.artist_id AND at.track_id = t._id AND tg.track_id = t._id ORDER BY tg.timestamp;
This command displays a list of the songs, ordered by their timestamp.
So with the command line tool "sqlite3" you just type in:
sqlite3 -line /tmp/library.db "SELECT a.name , t.title, t.subtitle, t.album, t.subgenre_name, tg.short_datetime, tg.location_name , tg.lat, tg.lon FROM artist a, artist_track at, track t, tag tg WHERE a.id = at.artist_id AND at.track_id = t._id AND tg.track_id = t._id ORDER BY tg.timestamp;"
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
The output is in lines, you could also let put this in a text file by e.g. adding to this command:
"[see above] > shazam-tracks.txt"
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
There is also a way to export the data into an html table (just the table, no complete html file), by changing "-line" for "-html". For further details on how to export everything to a different file format (CVS etc) have a look on the Manpage of sqlite3 (command "man sqlite3").
With the graphical tool "sqlitebrowser" it is imho only possible to show this list, not to export it to a textfile. After having opened the .db-file with the program, you chose the tab "Execute SQL" and put there the above SQL command ("SELECT [...]"). Voilà!
3. DETAILS:
What I do like this is combining the necessary data of the database. They are spread over several tables. There is a table "artist" with the list of the artists and their unique ids. Then there is the same for the tracks, "track". In the "artist_track" table there is listed, which artist's id belongs tho which track's id. Finally in the table "tag" there are additional data like the time stamp of the song and even it's geo data tag.
With the SQLite program you can easily watch all the data and add / remove data from the SQL command, as you wish.
So far, I hope, I could help somebody?

Thanks!!! It helped me since Shazam no longer gets past the setup screen!
I found that with SQliteExport you can use your same command above and export to a file of your choice, for example, xls or csv. Here's the link to the little program:

Tried but cant do it. I need step by step instruction. Or better, can someone just export the db that I attached? (See OP - first post - shazam.db ?)
Thanks

Best solution for exporting from shazam database
Delete this one please
Hello I am new on the forum. I've learned a lot of things in this website, it's time to payback
I’ve got another solution to this issue….
1.-Download this plugin for Firefox.
addons.mozilla.org/es/firefox/addon/sqlite-manager
2.- In Firefox – Tools, select SQLite Manager
3.- In the new window select database – connect database – then open your db from shazam
4.- Then you’ll see two panels. on left panel select track and on right panel, select browse and search then you’ll be able to see all your tag info
5.- On the left panel select track – right click – export table, select csv on right panel then ok.
6.- Open your new saved database with any office (word, excel)

This above works well nice one.
I was trying to do my own program before I saw this.I'm not a programmer but I stuck together a few bits of code I found and hopefully works you you. Use android app Root Browser Lite to copy file from data/data/com.shazam.android/databases/library.db to your sd card. Or use the app posted earlier which does this for you.
Put library.db file from you Shazam backup in the same folder as this program and run program and hit 'GetTags' and should get CSV and htm versions of your tags. No error checking or anything fancy in this program. Requires .NET 3.5. May only work on 32-bit machines. I'd like to enhance this and will if people find it useful.
How results should look.

[GUIDE] File Sharing b/w Macs & Androids

Draft of Tutorial for FTP FIle sharing
TUTORIAL: FTP File Sharing for Macs & Androids
BACKGROUND INFORMATION
I find that for many Mac users, the instructions given within these forums for file sharing between their computers and their Android phones are quite sparse and oftentimes confusing. Mac users use different terminology and generally, are less comfortable with Terminal command line instructions than are PC users. That is not, by any means, intended to disparage Mac users. By anyone's standards, for instance, I would be considered a "power user" or even a techno-geek, yet even I found terms and phrases such as "flashing roms" and "RUU's" confusing! So, this little guide should help any Mac user who is trying to get files from his Mac computer to his Android phone, and visa versa.
What will most confound most Mac users, who are very much used to their devices being "plug and play", is why they can't just plug their Android phone into their computer and have the phone mount like any other drive on their desktop? The problem, of course, is that Mac OS X currently does not support Media Transfer Protocol, or MTP. So, when they plug their Android phones into their computers using a standard USB connection, their Macs cannot "see" the drives.
So, it has been suggested to many of us that we use a program, such as Android FIle Transfer, which uses a different protocol, AFT, to mount our Android phones onto our Macs. The problem is that Android File Transfer, a free download, is oftentimes unreliable and will fail to mount the phone as a drive on the computer. To make matters worse, HTC phones, such as the HTC One, by default will launch a program called, "HTC Sync Manager" which actually will keep the Android FIle Transfer program from mounting the drive.
So, what's a Mac user to do for reliable transfers of information from his Mac to his Android? For small files, such as documents, Dropbox and Google work really well, and their intuitive interface makes them a handy resource for Mac users. But the larger files, such as custom ROM's, firmware updating, and yes, those pesky "RUU's" that need to be installed directly on the Android's sd card pose a real problem.
THE SOLUTION
The Mac user will first need to install the proper "tools" onto his respective devices. On his Android, he will need to install (i.e. not "flash") a FIle Manager, such as ES File Explorer. On his computer, running some variant of Mac OS X, he will need to install an ftp client. I use and recommend a program called, "Transmit", but there are others that will work as well. The ES File Explorer program is available for download at the Google Play Store, and the Transmit app is available from the Mac App Store.
Once these tools have been installed on their respective devices, the Mac user will need to go to his System Preferences and open up the Sharing CP. Both "File Sharing" and "Remote Login" must be checked. Then he should got to Settings on his phone and then to the Developer Options within Settings and select "USB debugging".
Next, he will to make sure that both of his devices are connected to the same WiFi network. On the Mac, WiFi is enabled in the Network CP and on the phone it is enabled under "settings".
Then he will need to open up ES File Explorer on his Android and navigate to Tools. He must click on Tools and then scroll down to "Remote Manager". He will select "Remote Manager", and he should see a screen that says, "Network Status" followed by the name of his WiFi network. Underneath the blue symbol for WiFi will be the statement, "you can manage your device through your PC after you turn on the service." He should click on the button just below that statement. The button will say, "Turn On".
Okay, the setup is nearly complete! Now that the user has enabled WiFi access on his phone, an ftp address will appear just below the blue WiFi symbol with the instruction to, "input the address on your computer". The ftp address will look something like this:
XXX:XXX.X.XX:4038
Now the user will launch the application, Transmit, and select FTP from the drop down menus. A dialog box will appear that will ask for the server, user name, password, initial path, port and type of ftp that he wishes to use. Using our sample ftp address, he should fill out the box as follows:
Server: XXX:XXX.X.XX
User Name: Joe Smith's HTC One [name should match name that was assigned to the phone at setup]
Password: XXXXX [i.e. the password or numerical passcode that is used to unlock the phone at startup]
Initial Path - [leave blank]
Port: 4038 [the last 4 digits of phone's assigned ftp address, i.e. the ones that followed the colon]
FTP: - just select this first option for the type of ftp.
Then he will click the "Connect" button that is at the bottom of this window, and if the application has been configured correctly, he should see a list of all of the files and folders contained in the home directory on his Mac on the left side of the window. On the right will be all of the folders and files that reside on his phone. Now, with a simple drag and drop interface, he can drag files left to right to move files from his computer to his phone, and right to left to move files from his phone to his computer.
This simple, elegant solution to file transfers is perfect, and transfers over ftp are generally very quick. The user will even get a notification when each of his file transfers is complete.
I hope this tutorial helps. Please let me know if it has helped you as well as whether you need additional information.

[Q] File created on handset shows up as 0 bytes on MTP USB interface

I am running CyanogenMod (CM) 12 on my 1st generation Moto G. In the root directory as shown via the file manager, I created a "notes" folder, where I store text files. Files that I copy over from Windows 7 seem fine.
As an *aside*, the only proviso is that the native CM text editor uses Unix line endings (LF only, not CR+LF). So if the text files were DOS to begin with, any new lines of text added on the handset will have only LF, while old lines will have CR+LF. The CM text editor handles this well, seemingly treating both line endings in the same way.
I have a problem with any *new* text files created on the handset. I am not sure whether the problem is somehow related to the line endings. On the handset, I created a file tmp.txt of length 160 bytes (it contains 160 characters). When I view the text file from Windows 7 using the MTP interface, windows explorer shows the file as having 0 bytes. When I drag the file over to a Windows folder on the laptop, it is basically an empty file. Very bad.
I can use adb to pull the file over, and then it's fine (it's not empty). As a side note, the source path as seen in the handset file manager must be prefixed with storage/emulated/legacy/ when using adb pull.
I do not want to use adb pull to copy over a whole bunch of files. The klag in that process would make it a real headache. I will be regularly mirroring these text files between the laptop and the handset.
Can anyone suggest a reason why a file created on the handset looks so bizzarely empty when viewed over the MTP USB interface? Can anyone suggest a hopefully elegant workaround that doesn't involve too much geeking out? Geeking out is all fun and that, but the handset was really meant to save me time rather than become a project in itself.
Thanks.
It looks like I can avoid individually pulling and pushing files because adb push/pull are recursive commands. The source argument can be a list of multiple files. I might have found from google that a destination directory on the handset must be specified in terms of ./relative/path or might have needed a terminating "/" -- I can't remember, and unfortunately, I closed down my bash shell, so I can't examine the history.

If you have installed the Windows app v1.0 you have to uninstall it and use the live version. If you want to move your current data (messages, trusted devices and configuration) you have to:
- open the directory "c:\users\your_user_name\appdata\local\apps\2.0"
- locate the "easyjoin.exe" file. In the same directory exist the directory "data".
- Copy and paste the "data" directory in the directory "easyjoin.live"
From v1.0.1 you have to follow the steps below to update the Windows version:
1. unzip the " easyjoin.portable-v*.zip" file
2. select all files in folder "easyjoin.portable*"
3. copy the selected files in the folder with the current installation of the program
Note: All your data (devices, messages, settings) are in the "data" folder. By following the above procedure you don't delete your data, you only update the program.
In the Windows version there is a button in the "Settings" menu to check for updates.
Great App.
Your app is very useful. I am using it on windows 10 and android devices. It's working very smooth.
Suggestions:
1. If possible you should add an option to select different sound for notifications.
2. You should add theme options in future updates.
3. In message section, Long pressing on message or file should select the message. Just like you can select message & It gives more options in whatsApp.
4. Are you planning to make an app for iOS in future?
Uninstall guide for Windows app.
You should add step by step uninstall guide for windows app. I am a very basic windows 10 user and I am not able to uninstall the app. I am not able to find directory. It would be great if you can help me with it. Thanks in advance!

About uninstalling the windows version. All you have to do is delete the directory containing the program. Only, if you have enabled the "startup on boot", you have to disabled it in order to remove the key from the registry. Is a self contained app, if you exclude the Microsoft .NET Framework that you have installed separately, and all the files that it use are in the same folder/subfolder.
1,2 are in the todo list.
3. will be available in the next version.
4. Creating an iOs version is not in the current plan because I miss the hardware needed for development.

Available from version 1.0.10. You can send a message (text or file/image) to another application. You can also select multiple messages to forward to an other device or delete.
Awesome!
That's awesome and It was fast! Thanks a lot for quick update!
Just one suggestion about point 3. When you select text, there should be an option to copy it. Just like WhatsApp.
*About uninstalling windows version:
- I am not able to find the directory. Is it unzipped folder location for easyjoin.exe file? Deleting easyjoin.exe deletes the program, right?
- Also what's the location for that registry file?
*About future plans:
1.What are your plans about easyjoin?
2.There are only few good apps that does file sharing notification sharing for devices. Is it a fun project to provide a free app to users or You are planning to make premium version in future?
3.When did you think about making this app? Are you working on some other apps?

Is the folder containing the easyjoin.exe file. If you have enabled "startup on boot" open the app, uncheck the box and then delete the easyjoin folder. The registry file is the Windows one but don't worry about it, just follow the above instructions..
My plan at the moment is to create an easy-to-use application, improve the UI (the current user interface should be considered in alpha version), which does not need an external server to share files and notifications and do not overwhelm the user with advertising.
Android app update
There is a new file browser to select the files or folder to send to other devices.
You can use the file browser as stand alone app - there is a new icon in the app list.
Very good job. 'Till now I've used an app that use the ip addresss within the same network to make connection between phone and pc. But your app is faster and simpler.
Hi, i like it. Will you implement a Exit / run-in-background choice on Android?
That would be a great addition. But It will use some battery, right?

Hello. The app continues to run in the background even when you exit. Is that what you are asking for or have I misunderstood?
Btw in my devices I have not noticed an increase in battery consumption leaving the app running in the background.

Btw in my devices I have not noticed an increase in battery consumption leaving the app running in the background.

The key word is "choice".
Sooner or later i always have to manage apps with services (freeze, take away receiver intent or uninstall if they refuse to play along) because no matter how small the impact (battery drain, CPU time, RAM) it just sums up.... (or because i hate not be in control...otherwise i would accept an iphone-approach).
So if it does not hurt your philosophy and you like the power of the user, pretty please provide a choice. Thanks for considering.

I misunderstood
It's already in the to do list.
I'm on windows 8.1, what am I supposed to do to install this program?
edit, it's ok once I kicked my antivirus a bit, I got it working
How to add something as a trusted device though?

If I am correct, You need to download that zip file. (Link for zip is in the main post or you can download it from easyjoin.net)
Unzip that downloaded file. Open the folder. There will be .exe file. Run it & Pin it to taskbar. So that you can open from there.

Edit: Open EasyJoin on both devices. The app will detect available device with It's default/given name. There will be a + button with device name. Click on it to add it as trusted device.

VeProid7 was correct. Btw if you have issues with the Windows firewall you can use the vbscript file to open the port. You can execute the vbscript file directly from the folder or from the "Settings" window.

You can find the link for the latest update of the Windows app in the main post. Usually i delete the previous attachments in order to preserve the disk space. The above link is not anymore available.
