Slow lan copy speeds - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi. when i use my phone to copy files over the network (via ES file explorer), it only copies at like 700 KB/s. my router is 300N and the
PC that i am copying from is plugged directly via lan cable to the router.
The S3 is meant to have wireless N support.
Any solutions to this ?
Thank you

What is the best way to transfer files from my Android phone to my Tab 10.1?

I have a Nexus S phone and a Galaxy Tab 10.1. What would be the best way to transfer files between the two devices directly? I've been using Dropbox for the occasional file but I need to move a good number of files quickly. Any ideas or app suggestions?
Get the USB adapter for the Tab, plug in a mulit-card reader, and stick the Micro SD card from your phone in that.
Or just use Bluetooth File Transfer:

For simple, small file it is recommended to use Bump. Its kinda fun and available for other platforms as well.
For larger, quick file transfer, it is up to you to transfer data using usb cable connecting to a single pc. If you have a wifi connection between the devices, you are free to use any wifi transfer software in the market. FTP function come 2nd to that.

If theyre both on wifi, i recommend using an app called websharing. You can turn websharing on on one device and type in the ip of that one in the browser of the other device and access files. Pretty convenient. Been transferring stuff from my vibrant to my gtab with no problems. Not too fast but certainly one of the easiest ways right now
how about dropbox .. check my signature ... thats how i transfer files from tablet to phone to Mac to PC .. etc

I've been using Dropbox as well to transfer albums and large pdfs from Mac/Nexus One to SGT as there's no other way to turn the SGT into a MSD on Mac. Websharing sounds like an interesting way to cut out the middle man. Thanks.

Well, it's quite useful. I was using the trial version from long time. After owning this tab, I upgraded to full version so that I can utilize the multiple files transfer at once. I don't regret my purchase.

Try a combination of ES or File Expert with SwiFTP (Mobile FTP server). All are free on the market.

its ad hoc connection it doesnt need internet connection we can transfer and take the as we do in bluetooth sharing
The application which is required is wifi file explorer pro....
(i am attaching that below)
you have to connect your mobile through wifi connectivity than to run this software,
than open the web browser and feed the local address as given by the application thats it.............
you have access over your phone sd card via pc through wifi....

[Q] Are there any Android apps similar to Motocast?

I have Motocast on my Motorola Droid 4 which lets me view/access any file on my computer as long as both my phone and laptop are connected to the internet and I have the Motocast software running on my computer.
Are there any similar apps that work on non-Motorola Android devices?
Thanks

Yeah it's one of the few good apps I've seen that isn't plagued by a ton of people wrongly giving it one stars because they didn't bother to read what it does or how it works.

I use ES File Explorer which can access shared folders via LAN. No software is needed on the host computer other than setting up the shared folder(s).
How do you reach the PC if it's nat'd behind the router?

From your cell phone, how do you reach your PC to access the shared directory, if the PC is behind a nat'd router?

I'm pretty sure you have to go into settings and network options. You may have to change your router settings to allow access as well.

[Q] Is there a way to make my Note2 appear on my network list in Win7?

I would like to be able to copy and paste files to the SD card of my Note 2 from my computer over my home network. In windows 7, I am able to see other computers in my house and transfer files between them. Is this doable with my Note2? Currently my method is copy files to drop box, then open drop box and export to SD card...
Thanks.
Yes. You can download apps I like samba file sharing or you can use es file explorers lan function to transfer files...

Have you tried airdroid
Sent from my SCH-I605 (AKA NOTE 2)
SSHDroidPro and WinSCP. Or just use Samba Filesharing
You could ask a kernel dev to implement CIFS. I've seen it on other phones so it can be done.
Whether you can find one to do it or not is another story.
Sounds like Airdroid is for you.
Man, I realized that the Note 2 won't work with Samba filesharing apps. There is some issue with the wifi interface not being detected. Lame.
SSH and WinSCP may be the only solution I know of that works.

Need a wireless file transfer app

Anybody know of a good free wireless transfer app? I need to transfer from a computer to the phone. I'm currently using a chromebook because my pc motherboard is dead. Chromebook fails to detect the phone as a media device. Need to transfer a large file. 1.7gb

I would recommend airdroid. You can find it on the play store. I used to have this problem with my Nexus 7 where the PC wouldn't recognize it AT ALL. I used airdroid to transfer roms and other stuff to it all the time. I would recommend using it on wifi though because it does use alot of data transferring big files. It really works great though. Just download it and follow the instructions. It will give you a web address to go to on your computer, when you do you will get a prompt on your device asking to allow access, hit grant and then your done. Super easy and super useful. You can also use wireless adb, but it takes a LONG time to transfer files bigger than two or three hundred megabytes. Good luck.

I use to use wifi file explorer its prettt nice but now that samsung has their own version I use kies. You probably need the samsung usb drivers for it to recognize your phone. Usb transfer is much fastee btw.
