i got a galaxy tab gt p7500 and i was just wondering why i couldnt send any files from my tab to my laptop.. i searched, and i saw forums like you need to turn off the wifi first before you can send bluetooth.. i didnt try that yet but yes my wifi is on when im trying to transfer data using bluetooth.. is it a defect?
don't know if this will help, but i couldnt send something from my phone to my tab, UNTIL i sent something from my tab to my phone, its weird but whenever i would sent a file from my phone it would do the whole permission deal and then i could sent files either way no problem. id give it a try.

Hey everyone. I have a problem connecting via wifi. When I first bought my vibrant I was able to connect just fine on stock rom. Now I have done all the rooting and flashing many times. Tried many roms. Im on nero v3 right now. Every rom I tried I was not able to connect through wifi at all. I don't use wifi calling or need it. I just want to be able to browse through wifi. When I go to turn on wifi it keeps looping from connecting to disconnecting and no wifi icon pops up at all. My router does have a security and I entered the right password but still no connection. Can somebody help??? Maybe im doing something wrong here. Again it has done the same with any rom I've tried.

I had to get off the 80211.n to get it work. The roms have all done this so far.
Even my wifes stock vibrant was effected by my phone.
Then I just swapped my older router back in. G network. And it works.
All I know. I have never seen this answered.
All they do is ask have you done this or that.
Not one person has ever fixed it for me. Sorry.
Lastly seems to work if you disable security on the router.
That sucks.

Hmm I can't remember if my router is g or n. Im gonna have to check. Ur right tho I searched all over and can't find anyone with the same problem. Closest I came across is the wifi calling problem that everyone has. I even downloaded a supposedly good wifi calling apk for ****s and giggles but that didn't help either. Its irritating

I know this sounds silly but when this happened to me, restarting the modem,then the router, then try connecting again. This did the trick for me. Just be sureties do it in this order. Hope this helps.

Mostly I use 3g for internet,but for data transfer without using data cable I tried to use wifi ,I turned on the wifi on my pc and on my ace then then I created a wifi network in my pc...bt problem is when I scan for networks on my ace it could not detect a network ...plzz help!!!

There's something like that

Check your modem settings, there might be a MAC address restriction.Are you able to connect with other devices?

Has anyone managed to successfully connect to a mobile phone using bluetooth?. I've tried different phones and always get the "paired but not connected " message.
I was already in my bed but stand up to try it.
With my iPhone 4S iOS 5.1 it doesn't work over Bluetooth. Wifi hotspot works well.
So I think you are right. Get up guys and try it! Which phone works and which not?
iPhone doesn't. Over Bluetooth.
i guess the more pertinent question might be.. What are you trying to do? It will only stay connected to another handset for as long as it needs to be... so unless you're actually trying to actively use a BT connection it won't be connected.
you need to setup/install a BT profile. Check for AirBlue for iPhone.

I can pair devices but that's as far as it goes.If I try to transfer files it just wont connect.
I dont get the question,, Transfer files of using the tablet for sound or something?
For file sharing :
No problem at all first I transferred a picture from phone to tablet and that succeeded then
from tablet to phone also no problem,
Samsung Galaxy SII
But to connect with bluetooth and then Calling or something with the Tab, that just doesn't makes sense.

Same here, couldn't transfer files between my Tablet and ArcS (in either direction). Not much of an issue for me, but it's a shame BT connectivity is broken on the tablet. Here's hoping ICS will fix it
I tried a few transfers and they all worked fine.. From and to xperia s.. But... I also have astro file manager, and it's Bluetooth module..might be worth trying that..

Hi,
I am trying to transfer files to and from my lappy using Wifi Direct, and don't know how.
I'm using a Dell XPS with Intel MyWifi direct. If I scan for Wifi direct devices from the phone, it turns up nothing.
I can share internet from my laptop to the phone no problem (using normal Wifi on the phone).
Can someone help me to set up file transfer using wifi direct? Thanks will be given.. :good:

I have done a similar thing but using the Samba file sharing app. Look in the Playstore.

Thanks, I'll definitely try that.
But shouldn't it be possible without another app?
At least pairing and receiving?

BUMP!
Hasn't anyone used the Wifi Direct on this phone??
If tou had searched a bit b4 posting, youd would have found out, that wifi direct is not working on all wifi adapters on your pc.
that being said, samba fileshare is a good alternative, or use droobox.

You could also try Airdroid, it's a cracking little app.
Hi,
Sorry, this is not a reply to your question but I can't find anybody else who has done this.. How do you share internet connection from Laptop to the phone Galaxy s3? I know you can share the connection from phone to laptop, but don't know how to do it the other way. Appreciate your info.
Thanks.

Use Connectify and create a AP-Hotspot (which creates "real" Wifi network, not Ad-hoc)
It is however not compatible with some (usually cheap low-cost) Wifi adapters/cards/USB-Sticks and requires Windows 7.

hello. I am trying hard to share files using WIfi direct(galaxy note 10.1 under german JB), to an Asus Laptop (intel MyWifi dashboard installed).
I can use the Wifi as Hotspot, but not in Sharing Files.
Struggling, installing drivers, many options..still not possible. I have the same problem. recognising, but refusing to connect each other.
REmoving firewall or adding exceptions, it seems it's a problem of security controls.
IF SOMEONE could help us.
NB : sharing files from any samsung to each others works prefectly well (tab to note, or note galaxy S...)
thanks for reply.

Use connectify
use samsung link that comes with samsung kies and your phone to transfer files .. via wifi.. you can download it from samsung official website if its not there ..
wifi direct
i know wifi direct can use between android. these dont use ure home network or router (now is using this method).
means transfer files from andriod phone to other android phone.
and its preety blazing fast compared to bluetooth (eg; u can transfer hd video in very short time).
the main point is fast transfer speed.... and on the go.
i'm also curious about same technic for a laptop.
means transfer files from andriod phone to laptop, like wise. or laptop to laptop.
it said the technology also have in laptop, but i also cant find the solution.
maybe we still have to wait for anothe year or +.
:laugh:
Do you use non stock roms like asop?
If so wifi direct will not work.
Hi
I have a G variant of galaxy s2. When I was using CM9 my wifi-direct was working. But ever since CM10 it doesn't work any more. As it seems this problem is not going to be solved any time soon. So here is my question:
Is there any app or any sort of patch work that would fix it?
Thanx in advance
Use apps such as Airdroid or WiFi file explorer from the play store.

thank you for your help.
but the problem is that i want to send files using wifi between two phones or tablets. not between my phone and a computer.
Create Wi-Fi hotspot*, connect other phone to yours, then run Airdroid.
*without enabling data transmittion
