Hi guys,
i am looking for the fastest way to transfer files from my xiaomi nitebook pro to mi 9 and back!
I need at least 20 gbps speed, but i dont want to buy a cheap cable that can hurt phone or usbc port on notebook
Any help with the best solution would be great
ps, would it be possible to use thunderbold 3?

There's no way. The USB-C in Mi 9 is only USB 2.0, not even 3.0 so forget about Thunderbolt 3. You can only get at best 20-30 MBps, it's the best practical speed a USB 2.0 can achieve.

Wtf, USB 2.0 is 480Mbps, 48Mo/s.
Unless your Mi 9 is the only device connected to a 5ghz router, a cable will be the best option you got.

That's the THEORETICAL limit (60MBps actually, divide by 8 instead of 10 for more well known understanding), which no PRACTICAL implementation ever reaches. The best one was something around 41MBps, but it's an externally powered drive instead of embedded one in a phone chipset.

FTP depends on the general network speed (+a little overhead), the best you can get is a from the best 5GHz router. But still, 1Gbps is the best you can get. Remember, the best, not average. Actual speed will vary up and down, and can be a lot if the router quality is not good. To get 20Gbps, you need at least Thunderbolt 2. No smartphone ever created ships with it.

Use Wifi Direct, it's the fastest option. I can recommend Send Anywhere.

Beste mini pc with AV out (composite)

I'm getting one for my mum but her tv only has av in(rca composite). Gonna use wifi.
So far I've narrowed down my search to these:
MK808c
http://dx.com/p/mk808c-android-4-2-...wifi-allwinner-a20-tf-hdmi-white-black-241974
B13
http://www.geekbuying.com/item/B13-...ual-core-1G-8G-BT-WiFi-Build-in-2-0MP-Camera-

UG008B
http://www.geekbuying.com/item/EU-P...ore-1G-8G-HDMI-BT-AV-Output-RJ-45-314808.html
(needs cable, does this work? http://dx.com/p/4-pin-3-5mm-minijack-to-3-x-rca-composite-av-cable-1-25-meter-10633)
I think the UG008B is the best out of these.
Mk808c has a processor thats a bit slower and no external wifi connector.
B13 is so small it might overheat but it has a build in webcam and microphone which is a nice extra feature.
UG008b has a rj45 which might come in handy later on.
What do you think? Any other recommendations or comments on these devices?
Hi I ordered the T-R42 It has AV-out and nice hardware.And the developers are going to support it.If you don`t need bluetooth you can buy the K-R42

Hi there. Im debating on the R42. Did you get it in yet? My biggest concern is Lan speeds ( Not wireless ). I was told in another forum that the CX-921 which also has the rk3188 only gets 6-7 Mbps while on a wires connection. I plan on replacing my core2quad rig as a server with a low power android solution.
Ill be running an SSH server, web server, DynDNS updater, Torrent, VNC, Maybe personal FTP - SMB Access, DLNA , and hopefully VPN when its available. Ive already gotten most things working using my Tegra2 Acer A500 so I know its possible. Servers Ultimate Pro is a pretty decent set of server tools. Primarily though it will be my personal web host along with SSH access from home as I use SSH with a port redirect to create proxies while at work. Network bandwidth is a crucial concern.
My issue on the Acer is the network speed ( And lags torrenting ) . It struggles keeping up with everything. I debated on a Lan to USB adapter, but I dont plan on actually using it for this purpose. My 4 year old wasn't behaving so I grounded him from it..... Testing things in the meantime
Ive looked at some of the RK3188 devices, as well as the Mele A1000G which has the allwinner A31 CPU paired with a SATA cradle on top ( A BIG plus but I am torn as I need something that will run 24/7 and be stable.
Thanks!!!
I ordered the kr42. If you want I can measure lan speed when its delivered.

what were you copying to and from? could be the bottleneck was the memory card you were copying to. a class 4 memory card will only give you max rate of about 4 mb per second.

Hi again. Could you do a speed test and see what you get? Im thinking tekweezle might be right about the maximum write speed of where you are copying to/from sdcard wise. Im more looking for bandwidth capability so speetest by ookla might show me more specifically. Thanks again!

[Q] How to enable Nexus 9 USB OTG Ethernet?

Hi all,
Just received my Nexus 9, it got updated to stock Android 5.0.1.
Unfortunately, Ethernet isn't working via USB OTG cable. Does anyone know how to enable it or do I have to install CyanogenMod for Ethernet support?
Thanks!

has this ever been possible? i have never heard of any android device being able to accept internet though an OTG and usb\ethernet adapter...
Not sure about stock Android, but CyanogenMod 4.4.4 works on Ethernet via OTG on my Nexus 7.

That should work. My Ethernet adapter is being used on my nexus player or I would test for you.
Does it have linux driver?

I've not tried the script, but it's been reported to work elsewhere, also. It doesn't "just work" on my rooted stock N5 with KK. It does, however, work on my rooted stock N7 FHD (L 5.0.1)--"just works." I have the BobjGear Ethernet Adapter for Android that I purchased years ago for my former Toshiba Thrive. The OTG is run-of-the mill Amazon Asian import variety. It worked on my Nexus 7 2012.
I just tried it on my old Galaxy Nexus, and it also "just works." It may have worked on the N4, but I gave it to my son so can't test it.
I would think that it'd be possible... I have a 1Gb/s connection at my house so whenn I have a large file such as an HD movie I need to download right before I go somewhere I plug my Micro USB-to-USB into my Cisco USB 3.0-to-Gig Ethernet and then into my Nexus 7 (2013), running stock 5.0 FYI. I then turn WiFi off, then wait about 20 seconds. Although it does not show that you are connected via Ethernet you are. I ran a simple speed test using Ookla.
With WiFi I was getting up to about 80Mb/s, with my Ethernet setup I was getting around +900Mb/s.

How is 900 meg even possible? Nexus 7 only supports USB 2.0. Even with a gigabit connection, you should not get faster than 480 Mbps.

Hi there! Just wanted to chime in to note that USB Ethernet works fine on Android 5.0 running on an unmodified Nexus 9. I'm actually sending this through the Ethernet connection I yet have to update to 5.0.1 though and see if it works there as well :fingers-crossed:
Hi together,
I am using a Nexus 9 with Simple AOSP (Android 5.1.1).
For using my ethernet connection I bought this adapter: DONZO® micro USB 2.0 A Stecker auf RJ45 Ethernet Adapter 10/100 Mbit.
When I plug it into the tablet it begins to light up. So I think the tablet recognizes the adapter. (When plugging it into my Nexus 4 it does not light up.)
Now my problem: Nothing happens... If I disable Wifi I get no connection with Chrome.
When looking into netcfg i don't see an eth0 interface.
Also the app "Ethernet" from xda (USBhost) does not work, unfortunatelly... (Nor it works with any of the scripts provided here at xda.)
Anyone knows what could be the problem?
I'd really like to use the tablet with ethernet instead of Wifi at the moment.
Thanks!
Works for me on 5.1.1, unrooted Nexus 9
Possible of interest, I have an UNROOTED Nexus 9, using the factory 5.1.1 image, and I just plugged in an OTA cable, plugged a USB to Ethernet adapter into it, turned off my Wi-Fi, and still have connectivity.
Thus, my tiny little corner of the world is currently a VERY happy place. Thought I'd share my joyousness around the forum.
Which adapter ?

Just got my NP and Need advice - Ethernet and USB long side

Hello
Just got my new Nexus Player and after long search I can't find the right answer.
I want to connect the player to my Ethernet in my house for better connection and if possible to add an external HDD.
Here is my list of questions and I hope that I've got the the right place:
1. I want to have the maximum network speed and I have Giga cables in my walls . Is there a standards in the adapter that I need to buy to have the maximum speed? Or all the adapters have the same speed limit?
2. Is there a way to connect both Ethernet and USB HDD long side? Is there a magic box that have USB and also an Ethernet connection? If there is I would like to get an advise what is the best one to buy.
If someone have an experience what the items I need and have an advice what is the best to buy - I will love to get some links.
Many thanks in advance

You'll need an OTG cable, a USB 2.0 hub (a powered one if you're going to hook up non-powered hdd), and then just about anything you want will work through the hub. For expanded storage you'll need to root and install stickmount. If you want to install large games then you may need foldermount as well.
Sorry for posting the same issue for the 5th and many thanks for helping me - now it's time for shopping

In Amazon type in "ethernet USB hub", many results will come up. Here is a link to the first one. I don't know for sure if it is compatible or not though.
Anker® 3-Port USB 3.0 HUB with 10/100/1000 Gigabit Ethernet Converter (3 USB 3.0 Ports, A RJ45 Gigabit Ethernet Port, Support Windows XP, Vista, Win7/8 (32/64 bit), Mac OS 10.6 and above, Linux) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00KGV7I9Y/ref=cm_sw_r_awd_-ifUub140WKQG
The problem is that even if the adapter supports full Ethernet speed the USB port on the nexus player will not.
So, you should get the benefit of a stable connection... But it will never be beyond USB 2.0 speeds.
I am connected to 2.5ghz wireless N and I haven't had a problem with 1080p Netflix, no stutters on YouTube and modern combat 4 and 5 both play with no lag.

Can anyone tell me why my USB flash drive doesn't always mount with my Nexus player? I've got a powered Plugable USB hub, with my pny 32gb fat32 format USB drive.
It keeps switching names and sometimes doesn't show up at all until after I rerun stickmount.
This happens after waking from sleep as well. I'm obviously rooted and unlocked what am I missing?
Also how do I activate pro on stickmount after I've purchased it. I just get a weird screenshots about the pro version when clicking upgrade....

Very dissapointed with USB transfer speed.

I've been testing the usb transfer speed for the Mi8 using several computers with USB 3.0 and 3.1 and I'm very disappointed.
Transfering a large 3GB video file takes 95 seconds. That's around 32MB/s.
This is as slow as my six years old mobile.
Is there any setting to boost that speed?
Or is it really so bad?
I expected at least a USB 3.0 speed on this "state-of-the art" Xiaomi phone.
On the other hand the dual GPS is not working as expected yet. They advertise it but it but it's accuracy is very bad.
None of the Xiaomi devices uses USB 3(.1).
And there are gps issues for some users, you can read everywhere.
Both of them are known things.

The USB doesn't have solution. (I expected at least USB 3.0)

OnePlus 6T Dash Charger

Sorry for making new thread but as i know, the dash charge or fast charging on OP6T can only be obtained by using appropriate power adapter and cable ( OEM one of course ). I wonder if i can buy ones for OP6 or OP5T from amazon to use for OP6T?
I'm looking for a spare set for my workplace and in car. Do you have any recommendation? Also, do i need a special cable for data sync so i can obtain max transfer speed?
Have any one been using this ? For car charger.

How about the data sync? Can we reach max potential in data transferring since the cable is USB2 i assume.

In theory, no it's still 2.0. But, I haven't noticed much slower writing than with my USB 3.0 cables. I will have to try reading from my OP6T and see if it's storage is any faster than previous phones, and if there's any real world difference in cables. But, these are the only cables other than the stock OnePlus that give me the Dash charge symbol on the lockscreen, so they met my intended goal.
So i will try using any USB3 cable and test copying a huge file. I tried copying some file yesterday and i felt it pretty slow.

I just did some reading on oneplus forum and seem like transferring speed is cap at usb 2.0..... Sound like 2014 phones, slow transfer speed and no external SD card. It would be painful to save full backup in PC.

Best bet is still usb cable to i guess.

I use Syncthing for this. I have it setup so my data never travels through any other server and goes directly to my NAS at my house.
