How to share HD videos from GS3? Too big for email/mms? - T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII

Simple question, how are you sharing videos from your GS3? I can't email them as they are to big, can't mms them. So now what?
We made a small 11 second video, albeit 1080p - and it is about 25mb. Gmail limit is 10mb.
I'm guessing upload to a sharing service and share the link? Which I've never done. Can anyone help?

I upload them all to YouTube but make them private and viewable only if given the link (so weirdos aren't watching videos of my niece or cousins and such) this allows them to be uploaded at full HD and a general site that most can access without issue.

Just smack two phones together duh.

I started using Google drive to share videos easily.

I use dropbox, I tried google drive but the video wouldn't upload in full quality

I use dropsend but its limited. Use it to send files up to 2gb. But for smaller files or any other files, I use sugar sync. It's like drop box but with more features. Upload and just send a link to the file to anyone

I use Dropbox YouTube and Media fire.

I use Microsoft cloud. Using the web browser you're able to stream stuff.

I assume you are referring to S Beam. Having never used it yet, how long do you have to hold them together ? I mean, a playlist, couple of pictures, I'm sure that's a pretty quick transfer. But say a good size movie, around 100mb or so? Do they have to remain in close proximity or do they link somehow after that initial contact? Having never used it as I said, I'm just curious. Would love to hear from people who have.

I think the NFC just turns on Bluetooth for both devices and connects then sends. No need to hold them together.

Using S beam and a WiFi connection should take you no more than 2 minutes to transfer 200mb.
1) connect your devices to you WiFi.
2) turn on S beam on both.
3) locate the file to transfer.
4) bump the phones and wait for the beep.
5) tap the file and place the phones side by side as they don't need to be touching back.
6) bring the notification bar down and see how the file gets transfer.
I always use this method to transfer HD videos and lots of photos to my girls Note2. I think using WiFi makes the transfer faster than w/o.
This guy is transferring 200+ me video.

Is there a automated way to upload a HD video to a service and send the link to someone with a single action?

Have the phone automatically upload your videos Dropbox, then just send the link to whomever once the video is up.
One click if it is a known contact otherwise you have to enter their email.

I know this is a really old thread but incase it helps anyone, Android finally has a new app just to for this purpose. And its free
http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/app-playbak-share-video-easy-t2987858

I use youtube set to private if it is for me or use mega.co.nz if I am giving the link out.

I will try playback, I've been using drop box.
Thanks for contributing, nice to see more current solutions to all problems!

Or if you already have Google Docs installed it just asks you to update and voilĂ , Google Drive.
It says google drive is not ready, and it will send me an email when it is.

No, I actually hadn't re-installed Google Docs but downloaded Google Drive directly from the market.
Also says that it is not ready...
Okay I see what you're talking about, my bad, I hadn't tried running it yet had just downloaded it from the market with no problems.
It may be that it is only open to a limited amount of people right now. It is working fine for me, just downloaded it today.
ive got it. i was asked to upgrade mine, which i never had installed atleast intentionally.
I installed today and it is working fine for me as well.
My phone must be having a schizo kind of day, it would seem my google drive is now accessible. lol
itll work for anyone, just open the browser and click the docs link, then it will say download the app, then after you download it will say your device not ready and then click notify me. now go back to browser and click docs again and google drive will open and be working fine.

Will google let us link our files to others?
The last time I used google docs was probably 3 years ago, files are still there I just don't access them anymore.
Google music- I mean, play music, is great in theory and terrible in practice. It lags and pauses repeatedly on the phone and apparently cannot be played in firefox while on xp, with certain isp's while missing certain obscure security patches that no one can point to.
I just can't see using Drive for anything meaningful. My wife has two companies she does work for and they either use their own database or dropbox.
Did you delete the Sprint proxies on your phone? Once I set mine to 0.0.0.0 streaming was much, much better with Google Music.

Can't keep photo's from "my computer" from showing up on my wife's GS3

I am having a problem with all of my photo's from my computer showing up in my wife's gallery on her GS3. I've tried clicking the option of only showing pictures within the device on her phone but every time you close the galley, it just resets and reverts back to viewing all photo's from my computer. She doesn't use DLNA nor does she ever share videos and photo's. Is there anyway I could just disable DLNA?

If you're rooted, you can disable the "Nearby Devices" app from Titanium Backup or just delete it, and that'll make it go away.

You can't. I tried.
After you doable all the necessity settings go into manage applications and clear the data and cache from the Gallery app.

Mwahahahha. I immediately thought the same thing, funny stuff for sure.
Same thing happened when my sister got her G3 last week. it only happens when her Wi-fi is turned on. I could just tell WMP to stop sharing. but I kinda need it cause i like to stream movies and such to my PS3 for viewing on a larger screen.
So i threw all my porn in another HDD problem solved

Sending things via NFC to other S3s??

So a friend and I both have this phone. Both rooted. He added a JB rom and I am on the stock Touchwiz rom. We have been trying to send stuff and only thing that goes is a contact. If I open Quickpic and select a photo to send to him, it takes him to the Play Store where it wants him to install Quickpic. If I try to send a song it appears to be uploading on my phone and does nothing on his. He tries to send a photo or .mp3 to me and he gets an error that my device does not support large file transfer via NFC or something.
I did a search on Google and saw where it says photos and songs are able to be sent until JB. If that's the case, how is Samsung advertising this feature and it doesn't work on what's currently available.
If I am doing something wrong...please advise.
Probably because the Samsung software isn't on the JB rom your friend installed (sbeam).

Nah. The s3 only wants to send files with Sbeam. Don't ask me why I'm not an expert, maybe someone has a work around but I wasn't about to send files between my S3 and nexus via nfc

Auto back up to box

I wasn't sure where to post this so I hope this was the right place.
I took advantage of the free 50gb cloud storage from box and now I'm looking for an app that will do automatic backup of the phone (pictures, documents, ect..) straight to my box account. Something similar to google+ instant upload but to box.
Any ideas or apps that can do this?
Thanks in advance.

im not sure if they are still doing it but lg cloud has the same 50gb deal and it automatically backs up pictures and i think whatever else you choose
That sounds nice but I rather use my box account.
Then I am of no help lol

I will answer my own question for someone that is in the same boat. I did some googling and after a few different sites mentioning foldersync, I decided to give it a try. Works perfect and gives you many options. Also will sync to many different cloud services.
Currently I'm using the foldersync lite, but I might pay for the full soon.
If you use carbon you can back up to box

Sorry I didn't see this a couple of days ago, I could have told you about foldersync. Personally have not used it but know people that have. Glad you got the thing squared away.

No Android Beam?

I was trying to start up a content transfer with someone else's phone. I used an HTC One and they had Samsung Galaxy S3s. It would show the touch to transfer screen and it would just open the playstore to an item which didn't exist. It doesn't matter what they tried to transfer.

From what I understand its just a frontend for NFC which the phone does have. All I've done is selected the content I wanted to move and tap phones..

It wouldn't send me the little note to send off / receive without it on. Issue is, every time I receive something, it just shows up as a Google Play Link. When I try to send something, it just stops after I touch to beam.
I'm not sure what it is then, mines working fine(a little finnicky at times but fine).

My buddy has an S3 and I have the One, and in order for it to register I had to hold my phone about as low as his camera, but it worked like a charm. Then again, I sent him a few contacts and some pics for jokes.
Wife and I have GS3 and ONE, we send pics back and forth all the time.

You can NOT send playstore apks via NFC, it will always show a playstore link, this is to prevent sharing of paid apps.

No, not playstore apps or links. For example, friends on GS3 with gallery app opened to send a link. It just constantly wants to open a nonexistent item in the playstore. Sorry if I am unclear. I am thankful for all the help thus far.
Might have something to do with Samsung galaxy s phones. I can have my gallery open to a picture and nfc transfer it to a gnex and vice versa

Thanks. I think I actually figured it out. Anyone else wondering, anyone with Samsung phones transferring to the HTC One, the Samsung user needs to turn of their S Beam, because it tries to use the Samsung branded gallery app to transfer pictures.
