Does anyone use a torrent? For some reason I tried to dl a movie like I've done a bunch of times on my infuse and it was over 2gb and the prime told me it couldn't dl because file was over 2gb. Anyone ever run into that or have any idea what I can do to fix?

I use it all the time but I don't think I've ever downloaded anything that big. Sorry.
edit... whoops, i acutally use adownloader.
Try ADownloader, so far its worked really well for me. I haven't tried anything that large, but it shouldn't be a problem.
Also I just realized by the name that they might be made by the same person so maybe it won't work. Anyways its worth a try.

Where are you downloading it to? MicroSD? How is it formatted?

Just dl'ing to internal mem. Honestly it wont be a big deal. I was just trying to dl high def copy of the twilight movie for my wife (seriously for her...hate those movies...LOL). Normally 720p or DVD quality files are good enough for me. I guess I still would like to know why there is a 2gb limit. I don't think its the app since I use it on my phone and have done this before. It must ne the prime. Again. Not a deal breaker.

I use tTorrent the free version. Its awesome.
I've been using tTorrent as well.
Download straight to microSD. I believe the limit is 4gb, and thats because of the fat32 file system.

If you're running ICS, it recognizes both NTFS & exFAT formatted MicroSD's. Format your file system of choice using your computer & plug it in. ICS should recognize either FS. I've tested both & my MicroSD is formatted to NTFS.

My TFP is coming in tomorrow, and I'm stoked. I've been stuck using my girlfriends computer, so it'll be nice to use something other then my cell phone for internet and what not.
I'm not sure how torrent programs run on the Android OS. So my question is which program runs the best and what kind of performance can I expect of it being that it's running on a mobile platform.
Thanks,
Spartan

TTorent in Market, the lite version has a limit of 250kb/s if you buy the full version for 3$ you can unlocked the speed to anything you like. Also other than it freezing my tablet once an awhile on my Galaxy Tab 10.1 (haven't used it on my prime yet) its a solid app.

Do you have the option to chose a directory to save the torrent in. I.E. a external hdd?
You can't save any file to a HDD on the prime as it has no USB port but I would suggest adownloader as its free and has no limit
You have two options for a usb port.
A) An adapter made by Asus to be plugged in the charging port.
B) Use the Dock. Which has a USB port.
And do these two programs work as well as a pc version?
Adownloader works good, no major problem.

ADownloader works well, but I don't think it handles magnet links.
I'm currently using ttorrent lite and it doesn't cap me at 250. Never froze on me and it allows for feeds and automatic downloading :-D.
Tmobile g2x with Phoenix Blood.
Asus transformer Prime ICS with root.
aDownloader is the best one!
It freezes your tablet for some moments if it passes above 2-2.5 megabytes download, but you can cap the dl speed in settings.
ADownload
I using aDownloader and its pretty good. Sometimes i do have issues like it not actually starting a torrent. But other than that find a torrent with high seeds and it has no problems at all. Couple of advanced settings as well make it that bit easier.
Would be nice to get a tablet version of it though. Would make it easier and more user friendly.
I use nzbleech, I download the nzbs from nzbmatrix, download straight to my tablet and then unrar with unrar pro. This also helps with the issue of copying 4+ gb files making windows explorer crash on my pc

Is there a setting I need to change to be able to download torrents? I've tried atorrent, ttorrent, and aDownloader, and none of them seem to be able to start downloading. I use private sites, and don't have any problems with any other computers on the network. Thanks!
I've tried Ttorrent but had to stop using it because I had letters sent to me from my service provider about Copy Rights laws:/ I guess I had it coming.
aTorrent works well. It takes a while to access the trackers and get the d/l started. Any torrent program you use is going to fetch a torrent download. Their system flags when a certain number of them are d/led for certain ISP's. You can use certain programs like peerguardian to act like an adblocker for snoopers. The ISP's don't care about the pieces you d/l, but the torrent file. It causes problems even with linux distros and other programs that are torrented to save server space and traffic.

You are talking about newsgroup binary downloading. He wanted information about torrent. That's not the same.
But I agree, I prefer using newsgroup...

It wasn't from my ISP. A third party was informing my ISP that someone from my IP address was downloading illegally. In the letter had the torrent movies that was downloaded, date and time too.
Edit: I may have forgotten to set the Encryption to "Forced" back then maybe the reason why.

For what fun could be had in a terminal, maybe but I am doubtful about the stock kernel at least.
Also ofc, no Android apps are expecting it.

It's linux. If you manage to mount it, it behaves like normal folder (for example the one for microSD card or pendrives in Removable folder).
Yes but optical disks are used for more than just reading data disks.
I have an external cd rom and an atp, but don't know if it will work with my docks lone portand nothing if need to test with.

Have an LG GP10 portable sitting next to me, so I plugged it in. All the lights come on as you would expect, but then goes black.....No indication on the TF101 to say it has recognized it
There was a thread on Reddit about this last week...it doesn't work.
You think the kernel could be modified to accept a dvd drive
SO I have had my prime for some time now and really enjoy the fact that I have a quad core beast that does alot. However, one thing that just gets on my nerves
is the SD and MSD situation.
Here is the issue, lets say I leave my prime closed for a while and then open it, select a file with root explorer and select move, then paste to the other sd card it will look like its pasting then stop. All of sudden my file is not pasted and also no where on my other card.
Second, sometimes when trying to copy to my micro sd it will say read only.
I figured it just needs to be unmounted and mounted again but this is getting stupid.
Sometimes I have to reboot for it to work right.
Makes me so mad. Now I understand why all my android phones had me remove the battery to get to the Micro SD inside.

I learnt a long time ago to never rely on a clean cut and paste between 2 storage devices. Same goes for network shares. Always copy and paste then delete source file.
Your problem could be related to your SD card. Have you tried the same process with a different SD card?
I have two 32gb micro sd and it happens with the external on the device not the dock. I switch them and same results. I also notice there are funny files showing up on the card too!
I can not delete them from the prime or pc. Very wierd. I first seen these in the music folder.

Hello All,
Like many others I have started purchasing my accessories early, so that they are ready when I get my Note 2 delivered to my door. I just received my micro SD card, and I have a few questions. I am wanting to have all my music and pictures loaded onto the SD card prior to the phone arriving. My only questions is would it be better to keep it in the format that it was sent in which was exfat, or should i format it to Fat32? I did do a search but I was unable to find a definitive answer which was best. It sounds like the note 2 can support both formats. Also most people leaned toward the exfat due to it not having the 4gb size file limitation, but I have not heard anyone successfully doing this even with it as exfat.
Any thoughts or opinions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Matt
I would ask the international folks since they actually have the device.
That being said, I will use exFAT as long as their isn't a drop in I/O performance.

It is best to format your card in a phone. I would wait till you have the Note2. I know people that have had issues formatting cards on their computer and using them in the galaxy s3

In order for CWM recovery to read the ext sd, it will need to be reformatted to fat32...also your pictures wont show up in the gallery, atleast this is how the gs3 is and I dont think the gn2 will be any different.

Just a note about the sd cards for this phone. I talked to a Samsung rep last night and asked them what size, speed and file format works in the Note II. He said up to a 64GB Class 10 card formatted to FAT32 will work, and that it can be formatted in the phone.
I just wanted something official since I was reading so many conflicting posts on-line about what works and what doesn't.
I'm using 64gb formated exfat and have no issues. See the file sizes?
Does anyone know if I can use the WD My Passport 1TB Portable External Hard Drive Storage USB 3.0 Black with our note 2??
For movies files ETC ETC.....I travel a lot and it would be really useful. I think I read it CAN be used on the asus tf300t....bc of usb
thanks:cyclops:
Is there anyone out there that knows. That wants to help me with this question.... Thanks

Plus with the above unit, you can share it between your phone and tablet or laptop and it serves as an external battery.
