[Q] How to mount and transfer files??

I must be doing something wrong. My previous Android phones, I plug into computer via USB and mount it and just drag and drop files. This one you plug it in and gives you the option of MTP and PTP and won't let me move over a lot of types of files. I need to be able to move zips like a ROM over to the phone and it says file type not supported or some such and give me the option to skip or cancel the transfer. So it gives me no option to transfer. What do I need to be doing? Thanks.
There's no USB Mass Storage, the Galaxy Nexus has 1 unpartitioned storage space and requires MTP to transfer. It cannot be mounted or changed to be mountable.
Most issues with transferring via MTP arise with people using improper drivers.
I use an FTP server app on my phone (SwiFTP, but I don't see it in the Play Store atm) and filezilla on my PC. It caan also be done via adb or various apps such as AirDroid.
I forgot I do have Wifi file explorer so I'm uploading that way now.

MTP and hidden files

Hello,
THere is a strange thing with the mtp mode, when i connect my phone. Ican explore it go to the directories. No problem. BUT, i don't see the hidden files or hidden directories in the explorer. The file are or directories begin with a .. I see it in the note ii with asto os es file explorer, but when i caonnect i can't see them. In windows of course i put the possiblity to see hidden system file but no change

I have the same Problem I simply solved it by going into the default file explorer enabling hidden files and copying the files into other directories which I can access on the PC.

Yes why not, but if i understand in mtp mode no hidden files, in the windows explorer. What a shame, really i dislike MTP protocol, the usb mass storage was more easy
Thanks

File Manager

What is the best file manager, where I can look at all my files on my SD card - and also delete them without connecting up to a PC?
Also trying to delete that stupid Elysium trailer.
What is the best app?
Thanks.

Total Commander, ESFile Explorer and Solid Explorer are amongst best android file explorers.
file manager
root explorer, root access is required, it help u to explore all of file in external/internal memory and ex-sdcard
it can work fine without root access but cant del file in internal memory. it work fast than every file explorer but ui is very simple
ESFile Explorer for me, rooted required.
Tried Astro and ES Explorer.
ES is much better, perfect. It lets me delete stuff, and is very slick. Also, no adverts (that I seen) unlike Astro.
Thanks.
I can not miss the opportunity to plug Total Commander. The Best file manager for Windows and Android.
The crazy bastards even support Windows 3.11 .

flash drive cant be written to?

Using ES file explorer on my 5x.. I had to format my flash drive and now i cant use my flash drive.. es file explorer gives me an error "unable to open the file"
it acts as if the drive is connected, but shows no space info or drive name..
I'm able to put files onto it and works fine on my computer
anyone have any thoughts? I have formatted, created the correct partition and using fat32
so regular file explorer in MM sees and can explore but ES file explorer cant.. I tried formatting usb drive in android too. no go

Copying in File Transfer MTP mode

I am unlocked and rooted on my new OP3. I installed the oneplus drivers and have Vista on my laptop. I have USB debugging on and switched to File Transfer MTP mode after plugging in the phone cable.
I can view files on the phone in internal memory, delete files on the phone, and copy files from the phone to the PC using a windows explorer dual pane alternative, like xplorer2. But I cannot copy a file from the PC to the phone. The phone appears as a portable media player with the internal storage labeled as 'generic hierarchical'. I wonder if this has something to do with it. Maybe these dual pane explorers need to see the phone as NTFS format for this to work. Does anyone know: Is the phone supposed to appear as a portable media player in Windows? Or do I have a problem with having the wrong drivers?
The reason why it seems like the drivers are okay is that using the standard windows explorer, I can copy a file from the PC to the phone--just not with an explorer alternative.
I'm in such a habit of using a dual pane explorer, I'd like to try to fix this if possible. Has anyone else been able to copy files to the Oneplus 3 using a dual pane explorer? Does your phone appear as something other than a portable media player? Or do I need to resign myself to use the standard windows explorer?
I finally fixed it. Seems to be my network adapters were using google dns servers. So this fixed my issue: http://ecross.mvps.org/howto/enable-netbios-over-tcp-ip-with-windows.htm.
