The only internet i have is from my Desire. I would like to upload a large file to some sort of site around 100MB worth.
I have tried most popular ones but they don't work form the phone. I have tried Dropbox but it seems there is no status bar of how much it has uploaded. I even left it going overnight and couldn't tell wether it was done or not!
Any ideas?
I have used estrongs file explorer (available free in marketplace) it has a built in FTP client and I've used it to upload large files (300Mb +) to company FTP site over 3G and WiFi in the past, it has a process indicator too...
EStrongs also has LAN browsing capability, so I can use it to playback mp3 stored on my NAS when at home
Hope this helps.
P
Would i not need my own webspace to do that though? I meant more for uploading a file to Megaupload/4shared/Rapidshare anything like that really?
Thanks for the reply though. Will be worth having it for other things!
Yes, it would only work if you had the FTP address for the location you were trying to upload to,
for file sharing sites, have you tried an alternative browser to default, I don't use any of those sites you mentioned, but for other things (managing world cup fantasy football team for example) I found that I could use some pages in dolphin HD that wouldn't work in the default browser, I'm not a big fan of dolphin because of the way it hijacks all of your default preferences even when you ask it not to, but it did allow me to use sites that otherwise would be unavailable

Use Firefox from ubuntu/debian on your phone.

From what i have seen it takes a bit of work to get it going. Would like to try it but maybe once we get a 1 click solution to use it.
I'll look into other browsers. Thanks.

What about operamini?
I know you can upload files with that. Don't know about files that big. Give it a try.
Tried operamini no luck there. What site would i be able to use?
~100MB and below I've done with Dropbox using the Droidbox app.
It shows an icon in the notification bar and the current status when you scroll down (progress bar, successful/unsuccessful). This is a 63MB 3GP vid file I'm uploading using it right now: http://bit.ly/asyRYa

Sent from my GT-I9000M using XDA App
Have it also in Portugal. Very nice App. Just point the camera on the computers desktop and it copies the file from there to the device. Even can upload files directly from the phone to the desktop.
Very easy to transfer a file with this.
apk please?
does it use bluetooth/wifi?
This sounds awesome. Wonder why no Canada, buggers. Please someone get us the .apk
Can't find it.
Sent from my SPH-700 using Angry Birds App.
Maybe it's for Froyo?

This is one cool app, i'm currently showing it off to my officemates
apk please! its not on my bell i9000m here in canada. thanks
Available in Australia. Installed. Now it wants me to install it on my pc as well. Transferring to PC. It will use WiFi. But still cool alternative to WiFiExplorer.
Installed. Works great. Cool Intelligent app. Transferred 83mb video from laptop to galaxy in less than 3mins. Transferred a photo from galaxy to laptop in 1 sec.
Samsung does look aftr the Galaxy users.
I got it a day after I went from Eclair to Froyo so I assume 2.2 only. It uses wifi wo should be fast but I can't get it to work.
Says unsupported appliation
I don't use IE though.
Doesn't support URLs from Google Chrome. Also, no option to send a pdf file from galaxy to laptop. Can only send image/audio/video from galaxy to laptop. So, there is room for improvement.

Available in Sri lanka and not in India. Now this isn't cool.
But surely it isn't that hard to upload the APK somewhere and throw that link here?
Not showing on my I9000XXJPO.

chrome to phone
check out chrometophone-android-v1.7.apk or Chrome to Phone 2.1 [can't post url]
you can find it in the android market or google search
there is an addon for Chrome and Firefox, you can send links, files, text to your phone, you need a google account

Hey guys I need the samsung dive apk, please can someone give it to me? Thank you so much!
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App
samsung dive apk? . You need to go to accounts & sync in the settings menu, create a samsung account then log into that account via your pc
www.samsungdive.com
I suppose you refer to this: http://download-apk.blogspot.com/2011/10/apk-default-samsung-galaxy-s2.html
Look for all the apk's related to Samsung Dive.
By the way, I read (I think around this forum) it is not possible to install apk's from stock room in AOSP custom roms, so if you have CyanogenMod or MIUI its probably not possible to go back to Samsung Dive. There are other options anyway .
Hope it helps.
I found a simillar app called Lmaxi anti theft.. you might want to check it out..
It has many interesting features such as it runs almost invisible on the phone (the app is only accessible from the dialler), remote lock via sms, HARD RESET PROTECTION (root), etc..

Strange ... if one take a look at this applications list of Permissions ... SMS and Location (GPS) are missing. How can this application send SMS and link to map with location without those permissions ???

ok i noticed that.. it probably need a paid version for those features to work.. because the app itself is just an installer not the actual apk, not sure what are the actual permissions it requires..
this one might be better

Uploading photos to facebook does not work for me.
The behavior is the same both when selecting photo upload from the facebook app, or when chosing to share to facebook from the gallery.
The upload progress in statusbar looks good and finishes, but then an error message is displayed in the statusbar that the transfer failed.
When initiating the upload from facebook a "popup" mesage that the photo could not be added is also displayed.
I tried wipe facebook cache and data and reinstall the app but that didn't solve anything.
I'm on AOKP build25 & franco kernel 18.6.
Anyone else with the same problem?

I have the same problem, haven't found a way to fix it though... I'm running pure stock.

Ok, so at least I'm not alone....
Good to know that the problem exist also on stock. I wasn't sure if I ever tested it before I flashed a custom rom.

Did you try clearing the app's cache? Logging back in and trying to upload a pic again?
Yes, I wiped cache and data and even reinstalled the app.

Facebook's app is the worst written in Android history. It isn't your fault- they just can't write an update without breaking something. It's a known issue.
Possible solution
It's maybe a little late to offer a solution, but today I finally found out what could be the problem:
I normally share my pictures with "All friends, except ... " (please excuse wrong translation; don't know how it's called in English) and all my picture uploads failed without exception. Today I wanted to share a picture with "All" my friends and... it work perfectly! I tried some more and it seems my problems are gone.
So my possible solution:
-> You have to share with "all", not with some groups or with excluded people. The Facebook App and mobile site is too stupid to work with its own lists.
When creating a new post, just tap the little gear in the lower right corner and select share with "all". It's no solution for pics you don't want to show everyone of course, but it's the only workaround that allows you to upload at all.
After trying a couple things, such as clearing the app data/cache, reinstalling the app from the market, etc. I suspect that this is related more to the APN settings on the phone. I tested this by switching the APN on my AT&T Galaxy Nexus from the Tweakker APN settings (failed to upload pics/videos) to the original CINGULAR 410 (works like a charm, although it takes forever to upload). For reference, the Tweakker settings had the APN as "phone".
Hope this helps.

So, did you read my post above? I'm almost sure it makes all the difference. Tested this with a couple of friends and it works for everyone.

it is enough to only have one list of selfmade friend list. U do not have to share to "all" but u can make list of friends that can see your pictures, call it for example "see mypic friends" and only have that in the . But if u share it to: "see mypic friends" and "mom and dad" at the same it fails

Nope.... I was confused for a second...
WiFi Direct is 100% completely supported by the HTC One M8. You (& I) were thinking of Samsung, which uses WiFi driect in conjunction with their AllShare/Cast function for sharing media between devices.
WiFi Direct is JUST A DIRECT WIFI CONNECTION BETWEEN DEVICES. It is up to the user to then choose an application or media server that takes advantage of the feature in order to share files or media.
Now, if you ask me, it is ABSOLUTELY SILLY that at a minimum HTC doesn't incorporate the feature into Sense for sharing via Album, or their file explorer, but what are you gonna do?
