What is the preferred free way to move everything from my S6 to my P2XL? I tried the move option during the setup and it would not connect with the cables and instead tried to grab everything from the cloud, which I do not have backed up to the cloud.
If all you need is contacts, photos and videos you could use copy my data it uses wifi to transfer everything from both phones. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mediamushroom.copymydata
You just need to install the app on both devices

It looks like I've lost Kies Air for good. Are there any good options / applications / apk for wireless access to the SD card, Ringtone folders music and whatnot.
Kies provided access through the browser which was nice - not needing a client side install.
i don't even use Kies Air
i use Drop Box, way easier

How do you get .zip files onto you SD card? Or Ringtones into the right folder?
Just use software data cable, it lets you connect ur phone with the pc and go thru your sd card thru wifi

OK Software Data cable is getting closer. It provides access to the Android file system via FTP. But in the file system I don't know where the Ringtones are, Where the pictures go and so on.
Again I want to say why Kies is awesome. Access to text based call log via browser window, Text Message records via browser window, Add ringtones easily (important to me anyway), access to expandable contacts list via browser window, Add and manipulate bookmarks, and of course photo, video, and music access including working with playlists.
All that plus a file browser.
This just makes working with the everyday aspects of the phone easier and provides for rooting around in the file system as well.
I'm looking for something that will do all of those things. Or at least some of them beyond the file browser.

Well theres a download for kies, cuz i dont think theres any other app that can do all that

Thanks (click). Any special things to consider when installing a system app? Like permissions or placement?
Nah, it can be installed as a user app, but if you want, after you install it, you can use titanium backup to convert it into a system app

i use wifi file explorer...it works really well..just connect to wifi, it gives you an ip and you just type that into your browser and you can explore all the files on your phone
My Sync Center
I use WiFi File Explorer. Pretty solid.
I also saw My Sync Center on Android Police. Haven't tried it yet, but it looks pretty slick.
With limited storage available on our Nexus 4, PeerDeviceNet allows WiFi transfer of Pictures, Movies (via Gallery) and other files (via ES File Explorer etc) over a WiFi network without using an router or AP.
I'm about to go to Panama and would like to bring along only my Nexus 4 and my G-tablet (Froyo 2.2) for pictures and video shooting. I quickly realized that I need extra storage for my Nexus 4 16G if I was to use it for video. My G-table has an SD card slot and all I need is to connect the two devices somehow and transfer the files from the N4 to my G-Tab's SD card whenever I need to free up storage on my N4. While most WiFi transfer Apps require the 2 devices to be connected on the same network via an AP, PeerDeviceNet setup an WiFi Direct AP on my N4 whereas my G-Tab can connect to. Once connected, I can initiate file transfers from either device.
This for sure is one solution that trumps the Kingston WiFi Wi-drive. :good::good: Give it a try:

i made a tb from my droid 4..so how do i transfer that backup to my gnex properly?
i did once thru gdrive, and i only had like 1/4 of my apps, and there were only "?" marks for the backups.
im not trying to transfer system apps tho
Copy & paste the folder?
Adb push the folder?

idk how to adp push..i googled it once, and i dont think that was what i was looking for. and if it involves a pc, i dont have one.
copy and paste was what i did..so no go.
thanks
i wonder if the tb file is to big to copy and paste esp thru google drive or a cloud storage
does the droid 4 have a removable sd card? if so, you can put the Tibu backup folder on the sdcard, and use an sdcard to usb adapter and a usb otg cable to transfer the files to your gnex. but you might have to be rooted to use an otg cable, i can't remember. i don't use mine too often.
Using a computer would make it a non-issue. You're sure there's no way you can access one?
ok thanks fella's
my gf has a laptop but i havent seen her in 2weeks because of my work schedule.
i will try to put my sd card in her laptop and transfer via usb from her laptop to my gnex.
but since these apps have never been installed on my gnex, will tb restore them on the gnex with out any problems?
You should transfer the entire contents of the titanium backup folder into the same directory on the Gnex. It's better if you let the app make one then overwrite it with the actual data.
so download the app, and then let the tb restore the data for that app?
if so, thats sooo time consuming esp with my work schedule. but i will if i have to.
whats up with the dropbox storage option for tb pro? how do i set that up?
basicly that option means, i dont have to have a tb on my sd card what so ever? just have one in dropbox?
cause that would be convienent to have one tb for 2phones, by just keeping one tb in dropbox.
i found my problem. it was saving app data instead of the app..lol
i dont know how or why

After the porting of Bluetooth in Mobile Phones, data transferring has become really easy; just turn on the Bluetooth, Pair with other device and share the data while doing other stuff. You can even connect a Headset to listen to music using Bluetooth and in these hours of technology, Bluetooth is even available in all of the devices and with fast transferring speed too. However, when it comes to an Apple device, simply an iPhone, things are a lot more different.
Apple devices have Bluetooth ported in them, but it can only be used for connecting Bluetooth devices, not for ‘Transferring data’. So, if you have an Android device and you want to transfer data to an iPhone, you can’t just except to transfer data using Bluetooth. However, Wi-Fi can be used to do such a thing, all you need is to download an Application and start transferring.

How To Transfer Media Between Android and iPhone
Open App stores on both the devices, and Downlaod Photo Sync.
Android version is free with Ads, while on iOS you need to pay $2.99.
Make Sure both the devices are connected to the same Network.
Open the app and Select the Photos and Videos.
Once you have selected them all, Tap the Red Sync Button on the Top.
After that Choose the Transfer mode, in this case it is Phone/Tablet.
The app will then search for the nearby devices with Photo Sync installed on them.
Now all that left is to tap the device to which you want to share with and Transfer the files.
If by any chance App does not search for devices automatically, you can configure the IP manually.
The Files will be transfered via Wi-Fi connectivity, hence noticeably faster than Bluetooth.

bump is an easier way to transfer
Maybe ShareIT is the best.
I'm using SHAREIt and it works very fine with me
Also I have another app name Software Data Cable and I'm using this one to transfer from & TO PC efficiently
You can also use Picxer. It works similar to a messenger but sends the pictures in full quality. And they are automatically saved in gallery. Works well for me

I've tried airdroid before but the files half the time end up corrupted. I just want to back up all my cbrs and pdfs I have on my Nexus so I can restore after a rom install. Helium doesn't seem to have that option. Nexus Root Toolkit ignored the folders - I guess it's because it's not in data\media
Cloud storage? MicroUSB SD card? MicroUSB to computer?
I ended up using Solid Explorer and a FTP connection - out of all the options I tried, this was the fastest and the most reliable
What about google drive or dropbox?
The ftp route worked the best and was faster than any other option could be. It was also over 5gbs so space would have been an issue
