is there a way of transfering files over wireless lan on the hero instead of using bluetooth?
on my kaiser i had a software forgot the name where i could access my pc files and copy files etc
anyone know how to do this?
"ES File Explorer" can transfer files from/to network shares (Windows/Samba). AndFTP is an ftp/ftps/sftp client. SwiFTP is an ftp server.
As heading states I would like to know the easiest and simplest way to download files from my pc. Media files are not a problem I use allshare. I would like to be able to download rar zip apk files.
Airdroid let's you view manage and download your phones files on pc now I'm looking for something that can do that from my phone.
I know there are are servers you can set up and that but I don't want to use bandwith just a transfer through WiFi with no Internet connection required.

I use AndSMB from the play store. With AndSMB you can access Windows shares on your PC from your phone. Not sure, but is this what you are looking for?

Remote Web desktop is what you are looking for, download it from market.
Thank you for all the replies.
@Jokesy I am looking for an app that I could use so I can download files from my pc to my phone without actually touching the pc.
I think andsmb is what I'm looking for. I did some research and es file explorer also has this feature.
Could you please give me some sort guide @smilingcruel on how to set it up.
I would greatly appreciate that

Take this my friend it's work perfect
ES File Explorer has a built in FTP-Server.
It even lets you create a separate quickstart icon for the server.
You can easily access your phone through your whole LAN from any PC.
Sync'ing never was that easy :laugh:
airdroid is good; but if you want to see all files in your phone, then use droidexplorer
Guys I want to access my pc files from my phone through WiFi not the other way around.
I think I need a guide on how to set up a samba server

Too complicated. Just setup a FTP server. If you contact me via PN I can send you a lightweight no-install FTP server
which you can access with your phone (e.g. with "ES File Explorer" or "AndFTP").

Already answered! Read the thread from the beginning.
Thank you everyone for your replies.
I have got both LAN shares and FTP working flawlessly with es explorer.
I don't really see the need for allshare anymore

Use ES File Explorer, ensure that folder is shared on your PC first and in ES file explorer select Local from drop down menu and hit search it should detect your PC IP address, then select it and you should be able to view the folder that you've shared.

How to connect to ftp servers using phone?
Use Solid Explorer or ES File Explorer from Play Store.
I used the file explorer but I cant connect to my pc. There is only a server option, I want to connect as client so i can copy files from my pc. thanks
Use Total Commander with the FTP plugin
I'm sure that Solid Explorer works as a client, I'm using it It's also great file managerm, maybe even the best free one.
I have es file explorer because it allows me to save folder directories on my computer with video and in the past would allow me to select a video player to play them. For some reason it just forces me to stock player and tries to download the steam instead.
does anyone have a solution to this or an alternative file explorer with a simple clean layout and network directory folder feature like es file explorer?

Did a factory reset on my Tab 10.1 tablet and reinstalled File Manager to browse network and also BS Player to stream videos.
I have my wifi LAN network connected and am able to view files & folder on my PC and stream videos from my PC to Android.
However, not ALL of my folders and video files in my shared pc folders are being displayed.
For example only some of the .mp4 files will show up in LAN mode, while others will not. The same with .avi files.
The folders that ARE displayed are able to be opened and have files viewed & opened.
The video files that ARE displayed play/stream fine.
All files & folders are viewable on my S3 in both apps
Any suggestions as to why some files won't show up?
I believe it is mostly my newer files & folders
