Why to transfer files through USB cables, if you have high speed
wireless supporting android devices? The plus point with wireless
connection is they are easy to connect and no complexities are present
such in wired connections. Here I have posted some of the useful
application using which you can transfer files to another device through
wireless connection securely.
AirDroid is an top app to Transfer Files between PC and Android. It is
available at that size of 6.4 MB and requires Android 2.1 or up. It has
the highest rating for wireless data transfer. It is easy to use and
even looks much pretty. The Key feature supported by this app is that—
desktop SMS service, wireless transfer of files and media data, phone
locating technique app management, camera and screenshots.
WiFi File Explorer is similar to AirDroid with its network transferring
capabilities, but it lacks all the other bells and whistles that
AirDroid has. On one hand, it can be tough to recommend WiFi File
Explorer over AirDroid because it lacks those features, but if you’re
just looking for a light application to handle moving some songs and
photos onto your device without all the extra fluff, WiFi File Explorer
is arguably the better app.
Solid Explorer is one of the file explorer that allows network
connections by using an FTP connection. In SE’s menu, there’s a file
sharing option. Selecting that will allow you to set up an FTP server
and give you a corresponding address to connect to in either a web
browser or a file explorer on your computer. The cool thing about that
type of connection is that you can set up a bookmark in Windows Explorer
that always connects to that one connection, so you can always access
your phone’s storage just like you would access a music folder on your
hard drive. It isn’t as pretty and it isn’t as simple, but if you want
something that integrates into your existing PC setup, using Solid
Explorer as an FTP connection on your WiFi network is an excellent
option.
Sometimes, you’re not going to want to use your PC to do all of your
file management. For moving files onto your device using your phone as
opposed to your computer, ES File Explorer has a relatively easy to set
up feature that will allow you to browse your computer’s hard drive
directly from your phone.
It is available at the size of 2.8 MB and requires android 2.0 or up. It
is not as easy to use. The first time you run this app, you are
required to set service port and password for your connection. Tap
“start server” an IP address is generated for your device, input The IP
address and password on computer browser, there will be a page displayed
which looks similar to desktop.
3CXDroid also supports USB mode, Desktop SMS, Gallery Viewer, Media
Player, FTP Server, WiFi Keyboard, Webcam, Screen Capture, Contact
Manager, Remote Call, Wallpaper Utils, APK Web Installer, Terminal
Emulator, Logcat, etc.
Samba Filesharing is the best app to set up a dedicated server on your
phone, but it does require root to fully function. If your device is
rooted, this app is worth a look. Samba Filesharing can be set to
automatically run whenever your device is connected to a WiFi network,
(or a particular WiFi network, if you only want it to run on your home
network for security) so you can set it and forget it. Once it’s
running, you can access your Android device like any other network
drive. It’s extremely simple but still has plenty of power-user
functions, such as WiFi white listing, web browser and Unix support if
you’re using something like a Chromebook instead of a traditional
Windows computer, and a handful of other features. Overall, the app is
very simple and won’t bog you down in menus and settings to get up and
running.
