[Q] Help me find an app that does... - Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys,
There are two apps that I saw described over the past few months somewhere but can't find.
One lets me auto-sync a folder on the phone to a folder on my PC as soon as the phone is connected to home wifi. This would be useful to keep pictures I take on the phone, easily synced to my home PC.
The other lets me manage wifi connections that require web login easily without having to re-enter the website info all the time.
Thanks.

could you possibly be talking about iSyncr, doubleTwist AirSync, WiFi File Explorer, WebSharing.....

wifi browser login and wifi web login... both will log you in to access points that need browser login after you set it up once...
Sweet Home Wifi Picture Sync will sync pictures with pc on home network...

Drop box also works well.

You might be thinking of Titanium Media Sync. It lets you automatically pick folders on your SD & sync them to Dropbox or a network folder. You can set Wifi or 3g.

[Q] Please Help...Market App not downloading apps using WiFi

Hello All,
My Market App is not downloading all the free apps (like facebook, espn, etc) on my Samsung Vibrant phone using my home WiFi connection. I go into the market app, use the search to find the app, click and scroll down to the app where it stays install. when i click install it says "starting download" and thats it.
I can browse the web, check my gmail and use pre-existing apps from my Vibrant using my home WiFi, however downloading new apps through Market app is still a problem.
I have read some forums and did Force Stop on Market Apps and Download Manager, and that did not resolve the issue; also tried rebooting. Also it downloaded some apps using another WiFi connection. I don't think its my WiFi at home, because my Laptop, iphone and iTouch all work fine in my home WiFi connection.
How can I download apps using WiFi connection at home? Is there another way to download apps, such as connecting the phone's USB cord to my Windows Desktop PC and downloading apps into the computer. Please help me out, I would highly appreciate it. Thanks!
Sincerely,
Moe

[Q] Can someone help me out with the bluetooth transfer?

Hi! I have a problem regarding bluetooth transfer. I want to send files from Atrix to my laptop but it won't work even if it showed paired and connected to media. However, I can send files from my laptop to Atrix using bluetooth without a problem. Do i need to be rooted to do this?
No you shouldn't have to be rooted to transfer files via BT. Have you tried the Phone Portal app that came on the Atrix? Open the app and select "connect with wifi", in your computers browser enter the ip address shown on your phones screen. Thats it! You should now have access to the files on your Atrix via your web browser.
Thx.. somehow i fixed the bluetooth issue myself. and, using bluetooth to connect atrix to laptop is way faster than the phone portal one
Good you got it working! Its takes me about 20 seconds from opening the phone portal app to typing the ip in my browser, not bad. The advantage of phone portal over bt is the 'file explorer' - bt only allows transfers not exploring; with phone portal you can see the files/folders and thats a huge advantage to me.
I can also use bluetooth to explore my files on atrix also. Somehow opening the ip address is very slow for me
How do you do explorer over bt? Is it software on the computer or?
I downloaded the "bluetooth file transfer" from the market which enables FTP. Then i go to device manager and find my bluetooth card and enables the FTP in it. When I enabled tthe FTP, it will install a driver. Then go to control panel-> bluetooth devices-> MB860, press connect in the phone operations then "browse files on your phone" will show up. Then you just click it and then you can explore it.

[Q] Market and Other apps not working over wifi?

Hi frnds,
I am having prob. with my college wifi. THe college wifi is 802.1 EAP secured network. So after connecting to the wifi. When i open the browser the browser first open the university's login page where i have to enter my username and pass.
And after clicking on login then i can open any site using the browser only.
But when i open any other app like market it does not connect it shows not network connection.
So the problem i think is that before connecting to the net, the wifi first verify the user identity. That can be done only in browser but entering details but not in case if market.
Hence does anybody know a method by which i can verify the wifi for the whole phone and hence can use any app on it.
Many college WiFi networks are configured not to allow second party apps (for example Android Market) to exchange data via that netowork. U would have to ask your network supervisor on your college if the "blocking second party apps" is true.
The proof, that the WiFi is working correctly is, that u can open any other site via the phone browser.
If u are willing only previews of apps in the market, try to connect to the market site via the phone net browser :]

Transfer between phones over WiFi & Auto sync over WiFi

Transfer between devices over WiFi
Has anyone seen a reliable app for phone to phone transfers over wifi.
Thought I had found one in X-Link but it is very hit and miss if it sees the other device
Auto sync over WiFi
Is there an app that lets you sync over your home network to your computer without sitting at it?
All the apps i find that let you sync over wifi require you to set the connection up each time you want to do it. I can connect my USB cable quicker, I want to be able to get home press a button on the screen and it will sync (like HTC Sync does for me just now).
Test this program downlodable in google.... airdroid

Looking at the web page I need to be at my computer to get that to work, right next to my USB cable
I have just installed this App.
There is no sync option and I have to be at my computer to do anything, I want to sit on the sofa watching tv and tell my phone to sync my contacts and calendar over my wifi network.

No Account Sync + WiFi Failure

Until 2-3 days ago, both my Google account sync on my phone and WiFi connectivity worked. However, both of these have now failed. I am not sure they are linked, but I assume they are considering the problems surfaced at a similar time.
1) Gmail doesn't work - the app opens, but does not download or send emails. No error message appears, it just does nothing. I press refresh to no avail. Going onto the Play Store and again encountering account sync failure made me realise it was an account wide and phone problem and not just Gmail.
2) Whilst my data connection works (and therefore the above account sync problem is not one of connectivity), the WiFi connection that worked up until 2 days ago does not work anymore. It is a hotel network, but rather than redirect me to a login page it sends me to a single page (not the login page) and does not allow any other sites. The problem is most probably down to my phone as the WiFi network and login works fine on my PC and for everyone else in the hotel.
Any ideas as to how to resolve this?
Thanks

Clear data from Google framework services..delete your google account..reboot ..add your Google account again..and do this on your data network..coz for WiFi you need to contact the admin of your hotel..
