i have a samsung galaxy s4 mini
i am getting a nexus 5 in a few days
i want to transfer 5000 images i have on my whatsapp from samsung to nexus
i know the procedure
the problem is that when i connect the phone usb to laptop, and i browse to whatsapp/media where the 6000 images are stored, it doesnt show, the green progress bar takes ages to load and then stays blank the phone then sort of disconnects from the PC until i browse out of the phones folders back to My Computer
i cant transfer via dropbox because if i highlight "whatsapp images" folder in gallery on the phone, it says i cant only transfer 500 at a time
the only way i can do this is if the 6000 images appear on the folder when i browse to it on my laptop and then copy and paste into a folder on my PC (to keep until nexus arrives)
how can i do this?
i hope my problem made sense
this is what happens when i copy the "media" folder under phone/whatsapp
to my computer
it stays like this

yes so i read your 3 posts and i managed to reach to the same place as u ... where the files do transfer but really slowly .. it feels like the computer or phone are scanning each image for copyright or drm or something .. i thught it was my comp but i tried this with a brand new haswell core i5 pc and no hope ... i have tons of photos and videos ..
i will try the airdroid method now ..
i even think phone to phone might be faster .. I am going to use SUPERBEAM a wifi direct transfer app and see if that is faster.. will report back .. .
if any one knows a faster way please Help !!!

First thing, I am very very sorry if I posted this in the wrong topic, but I am in an extreme rush.
My phone is Sony Xperia Tipo (Si21), android 4.0.4 ICS.

I don't have a wireless router so I wanted to connect my phone to my PC through USB cable and share my internet to download some things. I found this tutorial which I decided to follow. In it, it said I needed to root my phone. I decided to do it and followed multiple tutorials but later on I found out they weren't working for ICS. I did download Java JDK and Android SDK along with files I needed and the google USB driver.
I found this tutorial from here though and thought it would work since this is quite an awesome community. I downloaded the files and ran the .bat file. Everything was going well and then and my phone restarted (as it should), but once it started again it was very slow (which could be caused by some backup that bat file created and my low phone memory with no SD card in it). That's all fine, but after like 1minute my screen goes black. I push the power button (used to lock/unlock phone) and only those 3 buttons glow on the push and turn off when I push again. All I can do is to pull out the battery and start the phone again. I restarted it a few times and once it acted normal, but when I accessed my galery it was messed up and when I tried xperia galery it was even worse (didn't show 3d well and there was lots of flickering and similar...). After that I restarted it to see if that would fix the messed up gallery and once phone booted screen went black again.
I tried the unroot option in the bat file and it gave me this:
This is my first android phone and I got it like couple of weeks ago so please have mercy on me ...
Sorry, I fixed it after couple of hours of work...had to restart my whole phone in the end.

It's free, it's install with 1-click also the ADB drivers and...
- Organize your contacts, music, and pics from the comfort of your desktop. Transfer any file in the blink of an eye.
- Download thousands of apps for your Android, instant and free of charge.
- Apps download to the desktop, so you no longer need to worry about your mobile data plan.
- Send text messages from a full-size keyboard, without touching your phone. It's like magic.
- Importing your iTunes library to your Android is just a click away. Don't leave home without your music ever again.
The application is available for Windows, Mac here: http://www.snappea.com/
but also via Web: http://web.snappea.com/
I use it as default manager for any Android mobile.
Cheers,
Hi guy,
He don't recognize my ZU when I connect him in USB :S....... ADB drivers and others are installed.....

AirDroid does that too and it does that wirelessly. You can take screenshots, use your device's main camera directly from your desktop, you can install/uninstall apps, you can send text messages from it, you can transfer music/videos/photos/files to and from it etc. No ADB or stuff like that is required.
The new Auto Awesome Movie functionality in Google+ 4.2 seems pretty cool. Here's an article if you don't know what it is:
http://lifehacker.com/google-adds-auto-awesome-movies-great-video-editing-f-1454154626
Anyway, it's only enabled on certain devices running Android 4.3 like the Nexus's. How can it be enabled on S3's running 4.3?
Here's how you see it's enabled:

how to enable in other devices
has anyone found the way yet?
I'm also looking for this for my Note 2. Would love to have auto awesome movies, but it is not available on many devices. Surely someone out there has found a way to make it work on other devices?!
Maybe you can change your device ID within the build prop?
any solution?
I've got a Note 2 as well running Kitkat and I'm sort of pissed for a few weeks now that I can't get movies to work.
I found the solution to enable making movie feature in google photos, but you will need to have your phone rooted.
You need to edit build.prop file in /system folder in root and find and edit as following:
(be sure to backup your build.prop file first)
ro.product.brand=google
ro.product.name=shamu
ro.product.manufacturer=Google
o.build.product=shamu
ro.product.model=Nexus 6
ro.product.device=shamu
ro.cm.device=shamu
Save the file and do a reboot and then try selecting multiple photos and click on the plus button on top, it will now show an option to make a movie, if still it does not show, reboot again it will show up.

Hi !
Thank you for that !
Do you think it would also work on a Galaxy Tab S 10 ?
didn't get Movies option
didn't get movies option even after several boots also cleared data
Hi everyone.
I've a Nexus 5 which runs Android 6.0.1 but I think the problem is not especially related to the Nexus 5, so I post here.
What happened ? Few days ago my phone crashed (I didn't use it) and was slow to boot up. So I tried to force the reboot by pressing the power button for 15/20s and it worked.
But 5/10min after I saw the "Select language" menu ... The phone performed a factory/reset by itself. I don't know why.
First, I plug my phone to my computer and I've seen that 26GB/32GB were already in use.
So I tried to recover my pictures and videos with many apps and the one which worked was "Undeleter" (5$) but it didn't recover all my data.
Yesterday, I wanted to understand what happened really. I ran "DiskUsage" which give me this result for /storage/emulated/0 :

"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
How can I access to the "System data" partition which has a size similar to the storage space used before the crash ?
Regards,
Laurent
EDIT :
Finally I backed up all my data !
Indeed, files of my memory (/sdcard) before the crash was in /data/lost+found/#1351681/0
Then, I was able to move them to /sdcard and to copy the files on my PC.
How to ?
Make sure your phone is rooted and install a file explorer such as Root Browser.
Open Root Browser and navigate until /data/lost+found/#xxxxx [in my case, with a Nexus 5 it was 1351681/0]
(Look for the directory which corresponds to your previous "sdcard".)
Now, you can see the files but you can't open them. So move (not copy!) them to /sdcard (I suggest you to do that folder by folder).
Great, you've recovered your files ! But now, transfer them to your computer to prevent damages (I was forced to do that and remove files after to continue because the storage was full).
You can do it in connecting your phone to your computer and via the explorer or you can use adb (adb pull /sdcard/directory_to_move path_to_a_dir_of_your_computer)
I hope it will be useful.

I need to get a backup
A samsung tab s3
A question
1. buy a new display for 200.-
2. buy a new phone for 200.- and take the backup for the new phone
3. you can't get a backup without login in your phone, cause the display is broken
You will never get an answer in the samsung forum..
because only absolute professionals have the answer to that
The stupid samsung programmers in china never made a programm not even had an idea that this could happen...
You could unlock your phone at "find my mobile" but regrettably the smart samsung programmers had set every phone with broken dispaly in offline status. In that state it is impossible to reactivate your phone to unlock it
You can restart your pc
You can install kies
You can put 1000 times the usb cabel out and in
You can restart your phone
no chance...nothing your phone keeps offline even when it shows the folder at the windows explorer
The two way verification is for samsung much more important than a backup for the user and that against the background that in 1 billion accounts only 1...
"1" will be hacked
@xda24xx have you tried external keyboard on USB?

You can't connect a mouse or keyboard on this broken android display because you can't see anything. The display is complete dead
At https://findmymobile.samsung.com/#home you can unlock it but
the phone is offline till you login, but you can't login cause display is dead
I could unlock the phone at find my mobile when the battery was fully charged
Now more Problems
1. Smartswitch doesnt work when the phone is in energie save mode
2. Phone is unlocked but the file transfer is not switched on so it shows an empty folder.
3. Kies can't connect the phone no one knows why
4. The ADB drivers old or new can't find a device
