[Q] BlueTooth File Transfer - Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Happy xmas Everyone :highfive:
So i just got a Note 2 coming from the Note 1 and im trying to transfer my contacts over (VCF File) by bluetooth it says the file sent but when i check my Note 2 I cant find the file, Im on a stock rom no root or anything yeT and im runnning Jellybean, any ideas ? :/
edit: Tried Bluetooth File Transfer from Google Play but same thing. I thought they would of been in the bluetooth folder but no matter what file manager i use it just shows its empty

Just for hahas hit phone icon and check your groups and seen if the contacts are there. If not reply back.

Aye i did that and the contacts are there but id like to be able to find the vcf file incase i need it again, i tried sending pics with bluetooth and they work fine its confusing, phones amazing tho.

Did you create your own folder or use the default one?

default i think its impossible, from testing, pics and vids and text documents all of them transfer fine and are visible but vcf files transfer but the file itself dont appear if i send it via usb tho it appears, so i think were supposed to use the google backup/sync thing instead of vcf files. could be wrong tho, but anyways its all gravy now cheers for ya help

[PROBLEM] froyo 2.2 pictures

i can not view my pictures gallery not working help

I'll reiterate this question along with the following details if it helps:
Using the 7/21 BLAZIN release with the overclocking bit removed from startup, on a UK Rhodium.
Opening Gallery gives me the message "No Media Found."
O/I File Manager can browse anywhere on my SD card, though other system messages (I can't remember where) suggest my SD card is not mounted.
I tend to store pictures in /Pictures/ under the root of my SD card.
Thanks for any help!
Try going to settings > wallpaper > Pictures and see if it starts recognizing your SD card after that. Should fix you being able to go into gallery the normal way through the app menu.
Didn't work for me, unfortunately. In fact, my inability to set wallpapers this way is what prompted me to post.
I thought that this was one of the known issues

Glad you got it working man. I dont get that bug, so I had no way to troubleshoot for you guys.
Unfortunately this didn't work for me either!
I tried putting in pictures into all sorts of places in winmo:
/My Pictures/
/My Documents/
/My Documents/My Pictures/
/My Documents/My Pictures/Pictures/ (lol)
Gallery didn't detect any of them. But in the stickied thread Reefer you were talking about using a different Gallery in this build? So is it a fundamentally different Gallery than in the 2.1 builds? Or are you saying the Reference and BLAZIN builds contain different Gallery software? Getting slightly confused, but it's ok. I'm sure the problem will go away on its own eventually.

File transfer app?

I'm looking for an app like bump, but allows you to transfer files other than pics and contacts. basically I want to share files that I downloaded with another inc user.
I use drop box with friends and family. Very helpful sharing pics taken from phone.
This is my first post too.

Ps. Let me know if you would like an invite.
Two options I've found are "Bluetooth File Transfer" and "Wifi File Transfer." Both on the marketplace.
Cough it up... ha
This is another option ~ hoccer.

S Beam: Transfer entire folder?

Like the title suggests... Can you move a folder or even select multiple files? Moving one file at a time is a PITA!
I can't find any threads on this topic on S Beam on here or Google.
Thanks ahead of time guys!
Are you talking about just moving folders around on your phone? Or actually trying to share an entire folder with someone? I know I could never figure out how to share an entire folder with someone but I use astro file viewer and can move folders around on my device.

what I've done in that scenario is use root explorer to make a zip of all the files, transfer via BT, then unzip and disseminate on the receiving end (also using root explorer). Not the fastest, but it works easily.
I've sent multiple things by just pressing and holding until they're checked and then do the whole sbeam thing... I've only done this with pictures though with my girlfriend's S3 and my N2...

Two random questions.

Hey guys
I tried searching and googling both these and can't find anything.
First I was wondering if there is any way to specify where to download files each time? Like if I download a Rom I can put it in Rom folder, pictures in picture folder, etc.
And second is if there is way to save pictures that I sync from Facebook to the actual Google contact? Because every time I flash my phone the pictures are all gone or replaced by the old ones from the Google contact.
Any help on either of these things would appreciate.
I'm Tasks AOKP if that matters.
Thanks

downloads will generally always go to the download folder. there are a couple good file explorers out there to help you move things around to where you need them to be.
as for the contacts, sorry. i dont sync my contacts with facebook. i added pictures to them a couple years ago and those same pictures show up on them whenever i flash a new rom and restore/sync contacts. i can even see or change the pics when i look at my contacts on gmail (on the pc)
I know you can specify the download location for each download on dolphin browser.
Any other suggestions? Especially for the contact pictures, just refreshed and lost all again.

Try a program called dow load all files or use opera browser as it allows you to change download location like a regular browser.
Contact thing I'm not sure. I sync all mine to google.

[Q] Photos on Google Backup

Hi Guys,
My USB port failed recently on my Note 2 so had no way of fully backing up my phone via my PC, however I did sync with Samsung and Google before it went off for repair. When it came back everything seemed to restore Ok but I have noticed that my backed up photos all seem to reside in a folder called Autobackup and are all low res versions.
I don't know much about this and sort of assumed that my pictures would be restored automatically to the folder they were originally in and at the same quality?
I can't find the Autobackup folder through file manager and I can't seem to do anything with the pictures via gallery.
How can I get the full res pictures back?
Your help is much appreciated
Neil
They are in cloud...when you press it and want to use them... they get downloaded on device.. try setting a pic as wallpaper.. you will understand
You can get them all on device..you have to go to settings in google photos app

Thanks for your help and pointing me in the right direction. To get them back on my phone I downloaded them from the Google+ photos page. Come down as Zip files and to my relief they were all full size
