I think it's great. Anyone else using it got any tips?
I use it... Sadly, the QR function doesn't work (the camera won't start) and the screenshot thing doesn't work too (even if rooted).
I just downloaded it based on your suggestion and I have to say, this app kicks ass. No more USB cable, ADB, exporting files from dropbox, everything syncs seamlessly. Just what I was looking for.
I use it for a while and I love it. I also have the with cam to scan code.. This must be linked to our device as utilisé working on my mobile phone
i really like this app and the scrren shots work a treat for me, and being able to install and uninstall apps is a nice touch too

Airdroid on Asus Transformer Pad TF300T
Hi there! First, I want to THANK YOU for this amazing app you created. I use it all the time, and I love it.
I'm sending this email because the QR Code reader of the app doesn't work on my TF300T: it opens a black screen, without the camera. This is the only problem I have with your app, and it would be really great if you fix this (since it will be easy to connect to airdroid, no password needed).
I would also like tomake a little sugestion. When the app runs on a tablet in landscape mode (horizontally), airdroid forces the screen to use the portrait mode (vertically). This is really annoying, especially if I have the dock keyboard connected with the tablet.
Well, thanks in advance, and good luck with your project

Can you explain more? "Them" as in all together or as in one by one ? Because I am sure I can move one (eg a sub-directory in a directory) though I don't use the drag and drop

im talking about multiple directories at one time, as sometimes I transfer folders and files and it only lets you transfer multiple files, not multiple folders,
best option is to use ftp server/client as this works, until fixed,
please explain
Could you explain how you connect thru "ftp server/client". Thanks
Check out swiftftp, works a treat on both my tf300and sgs2
Thanks. Will do.
unfortunately for me this app is really slow when trying to access anything from their website. Takes ages for messages and files to show up on the site. I'm using a fibre optic connection so shouldnt be an issue!

I asked this question in the 7" tab forums, didn't release there was a 10.1
Has anyone had any luck with automatic syncing of folders from their PC to their tab over their home wifi connection?
We don't have unlimited data here, so can't use a service such as Dropbox.
I basically want to setup a folder on my PC which holds recorded TV, digital books, etc... and when I get home and my tablet picks up the wifi network - it sync the content in that folder.
Running Windows 7... all the applications I've tried either time out, or corrupt the data on the tab... I've also been unable to get the FTP versions working stable.
Try SugarSync. You'll be amazed
SugarSync in great but it is cloud based app.
If you need "pure" wi-fi sync try SimpleSync.

Thanks - ended up returning my tablet because of the display issues, 2 with dead pixels, 1 with newton rings...
Might go for the Asus Transformer...or wait for something else, will try them.
Sorry to hear that, I returned 2 Asus Transformers with similar issues. I hope you get a good Tablet whatever the manufacturer.
What would be the difference in using a sync program to download music/videos versus just copying it to the tab?
Because copying it to the tab would requre the USB connection.
Instead of a wifi sync, why not just mount a windows/cifs network folder onto your tab. This is what I do.
Of course this requires a custom kernel that has cifs module.. but totally worth it.
Gotcha. So its just easier to copy through wifi, so you can freely add and move songs and have it update w/o having to connect. Which SYNC program do you use? I would use dropbox, but I dont want it to sync all my other drop box stuff.

I'm not sure you get wheat I am saying. I don't use a sync program but simply share via my network drive that is mounted on my tab. When I want to copy to local storage, I just use any file manager app.

You can try this - websharing
It's free in android market.
I set up network shares on my windows PC, then I use File Manager HD to copy files from the network shares to my tablet.
This seems like a better and easier option to me than trying to get a custom kernel and setting up a share on the tablet.
I assume setting up a network share would be something that was always on and open. On a tablet it could be a constant drain as it would be another constant running process, and also it could be a security risk as you take your tablet out onto open public wifi access points.
leaving the sharing to your home PC, on only your home network seems like the better option.
I haven't tried it but the WD Live drive with the WD2go software is listed as being able to sync folders with mobile devices.
I have tried the WDphotos with one of our WD NAS drives at work and it did work.
Anyone have an alternative to Awesome Drop? - i do not want dropbox - i'm looking for a easy way to get small files from my PC to Phone quickly through my wifi. No programs etc. Like awesome drop, it'd be great to have it go from browser, but if not just suggest me some.

While this is an app, Sugar Sync is an amazing(and free) app that auto syncs whatever you want, photos, videos, or even certain folders. Look it up, and see if you like it!
minus.com and minus app in market.

To transfer files between phone and pc on wifi I use Samba fileserver. It just turns your phone's internal SDCard into a network share. Free market app. Configure once. Does one thing and does it well. Presto.

zzzap.it
We have released zzzap.it out of private beta a couple of days ago. It's actually quite similar and allows you to send any file from your desktop's web browser to an Android phone. There's an optional Chrome browser plugin that resembles the Chrome-to-Phone functionality as well. No user accounts required. The file size is currently limited to 10 Megabytes.
Would be nice to get some initial feedback in case you want to try it out. Thanks!

Nope since it has that issue it will auto start but it makes no difference... you still have to open the app and manually start connection....
Now lemme offer some advice... not sure why you use it but I use it because its the only app that allows the SMB connection. Which allows me to drag its network address to a command window and perform a robocopy /mir function and sync the contents to a folder on my computer
If you just want wireless access to your TouchPad and don't need that function there are other apps that will autostart correctly like RemoteWebDesktop, FTPDroid and ESFile Explorer also has added that function
Hope that helps. But I'm stubborn. I have SAMBA on all my Android devices because it just works. Have not been able to figure out what the glitch is with it starting up
Sent from my cm_tenderloin using Tapatalk 2
I use it to transfer files (videos and such) to my kids touchpads when I am not home or when they are using it. I realize I can start it each time, but it was nice having a windows share that i could copy files to even when I was not there to launch Samba. I wish the developer would fix the "wifi tether mode" issue or whatever is keeping it from auto starting like it used to.
Thanks for the advice cdzo72, Ill give some of the other options a try. Ive been using FTPServer in the meantime.

I cant get FTPDroid (or FTPServer for that matter) to auto start on boot reliably. I am on the latest nightly with latest gapps. Is there a trick or something I am missing?
Is this a CM9 issue with allowing apps to auto start?
EDIT: It must be an issue with CM9 and Samba conflicting, the exact same thing happens on my OG Incredible with CM9.
It looks like Samba FS is now starting at boot as it should (just installed the 7/18 nightly).
Awesome!

I haven't seen anyone point this out yet, but this is almost the single coolest thing on this phone...
Basically, when you enable it, it makes your sdcard accessible via a CIFS/SMB share! So when you turn it on, you can access your sdcard contents wirelessly via your Windows/Linux/Mac workstation just as if it were any other file share.
Just turn it on, open Windows Explorer (or equivalent on other OS) and mount the phone using its IP:
\\ip.address.of.phone\
You'll see a vs980_4g_lte folder and inside is sdcard0. This is *so* much faster than dealing with MTP to copy things to/from the phone. Go ahead and mount it as a drive letter if you want, or just use it via the UNC path.
I am in awe... why isn't this part of AOSP? Yet another reason to hang on to the stock OS...

Thanks for this. I wondered what it was but didn't bother to really check it out. This is brilliant. However, I've been having issues in general pushing large folders (several gigs) to the the phone whether it's via ADB, MTP, or now wireless storage. It seems to get stuck on certain files for some reason and can never finish. Anyone else experiencing this? I might have to start my own thread because this is really irking me.
Followup: Now it seems to be going through and speeds are pretty decent but still slower than ADB push. I'll try it larger files later and see if the speed improves.

What kind of speed do you get? I tried copying some music files to phone, and averaged about 1.2 MB/s over wireless N.

I've used VNC hundreds of times before without any issues. Its paid so i can't give you the apk but here is the playstore link. There are other free versions but they require root (this version uses a root method also which i use) but i don't know if you have root or not.

Agreed, there are a ton of them.
