wlan filesharing through router

hey there,
im using my day off to play a little bit with my td. now i would like to build network connection via wlan through my router to my desktop so i can move files from pc to ppc and vica versa. problem is that im not able to see my desktop on the phone, nor to see my phone on the desktop. i cant even get into any filesharing option(s) on the diamond
since now im using resco explorer...
help needed

What have you tried so far?
In Resco Explorer, try Menu > File > Network > Map Drive and then enter the computer name and share in the format \\computer\share.
You may find there are no computers/shares listed in the bottom window (hence why you have to manually enter it above) however in my case I'd always put this down to me using Samba on Linux but perhaps it just doesn't support this sort of network 'browsing' to find what shares are available.

yeehaaw thanks a lot! that made it. still a a bit uncomfortable but i think once added i dont have to reenter the path.
so now i just have to figure out how to make this work vice versa... wonder if it is as easy as it sounds i'll let you know
thanks so far!!

I don't think it's possible the other way round... but that shouldn't matter as from your phone you've got two-way traffic right now.
You're right about not needing to reenter the name - just hit My Device at the top (or traverse up to the tree to the top) and you'll find a My Network at the same level - inside here is your previously mapped share(s).

Hi,
I have tried to map my Vista laptop via Resco as stated above but comes up with error :
Cannot map network path, network resorce cannot be found.....
As I dont fully understand what I am doing can someone do a walkthough please?
I have tried to search the forum, but can get it to search keywords.
Thanks in advance
PS Can I map the internal storage via windows explorer?

You guyz should try Total Commander, it has a plugin for LAN. Works very good, even transferring big files. Running Vista Ultimate.
Greetings.

Thanks Sergio for your reply, I have total commander but have no idea how to use it, Can you offer any step by step instructions to connect to my vista laptop.
Thanks

Sure no prob do this:
-Turn your WiFi connection. (usually best performance settings works best)
-Access Total Commander.
-In the main page, where you see Internal Storage and device. You should see a folder named \\Plugins. Access this folder.
-Then access the folder named LAN.
-Then access the <new server> option.
-Name your connection.
-When asked for the server name, type in the computer you want to access (you can find the name by going in your PC to the network file and check which files are shared on your computer, click on them and you should get the name of the server "pic attached")
-You are done enjoy.
-Vista kicks assss.
Greetings to all.

Thanks Sergio,
I have followed your steps,Now I can connect to the Laptop folder in the network Directory which is the location \\LAPTOP. I can connect fine but the folders are not visable so appears to be empty in Total Commander which we know its not.
I also have a NAS drive which I can connect to following your steps with ease. Trouble is I dont want to use this as it is by Back up drive.
Do you have any ideas?
Thanks again.

I use Resco Explorer - but in "MY NETWORK" there is nothing even when I am connected to the network and there is shared folders on the PC - can you tell me how to share under Vista so I can see the folders on the Diamond. And also is there a way to configure the network settings on the Diamond - such as WORKGROUP.

You need to map the network drive i.e. long press on 'My Network' and then select 'Map Drive' and choose the folder/drive on your network (after you have shared the folder/drive on the desktop)

i'd recommend Network Folder plugin v1.0
it integrates network drive/folder mapping on to the inbuilt file explorer.....its more like an update to windows rather than a 3rd party app.
and yes, it works like charm...just share a drive from ur pc , get your firewalls set and you are ready to go....

Total Commander is a good option.

usb tool not responding

my shift is liberated but i wanted to install shift pack since i only have a few tools on wm side but i need LNK file i checked the thread on liberating shift
do i have to liberate it again.
how do i know if the usb tool is working .because the wm side dosent give much info.

if u hv problem with WMDC sometimes connecting & sometimes not, dont worry. the usb tool is always working when u set to attach to WMDC. I personally dont use WMDC with very annoying big dialog box.
What i did, disable any connection with WMDC/ActiveSync(WinXP)
Share a folder, use total commander (or resco etc) to access the shared folder (and create a hotlist for quick & easy access) . And I also have ftp server access using total commander. so we have external storage either on Vista/Seven harddrive or online ftp

How to use wifi to manage files on mobile via PC

Things are more simpler than it seems to be.
I am going to share how I did it, in very simple way.
Things you will need :
PC with any wifi working (NEED NOT WIFI-DIRECT AT ALL
Any android mobile with hot-spot working. (Rooted for root directory)
ES-File manager (Free)
Main reason to write this tutorial is for broadband users of PC (but internet is not needed), not having wifi-direct card, and no use of any wireless router or LAN or any fancy device.
I will tell you my short story, I am a usb-modem user with 2g/3g net with very limited data connection. Also cant buy wifi routers just to put my mobile n PC on "same network" criterion. USB was a pain and also very limited to just SD-card, and no root access via USB. So I took this mess and did my all to settle it as I need rather than fancy drivers and devices.
Enough of spoilers, lets start :
Mobile side settings :
Install ES-File manager. Goto windows->default->check remote manager​Back to Home-screen and swipe to remote manager page, It will say no connection detected (its ok)​Click on turn on wifi to enter in wifi settings and start hot-spot (or you can do it first)​It will show an ftp address like "ftp://197.0.0.1:3721/", NOTE IT DOWN​
Pc side settings
Search for the just created Wifi-Hotspot and connect to it​Now 2 ways to connect to mobile : 1. Open windows explorer, directly write the ftp address as it is and voila you see your mobiles directory there.
2. Open windows explorer->right click on my computer->Add a network location->Next->write the ftp address->(<give a name>)->finish​Boom, it will show as network mapped folder, click on it goes to your mobile.​
THINGS TO REMEMBER :
IF YOU NEED TO ACCESS THE ROOT FOLDER OF YOUR MOBILE, SET THE PATH IN REMOTE MANAGER'S SETTING OPTION (SET ROOT DIRECTORY)
Any problem you tell me.
Sorry for my English.

hi
I suggest adding the "[Tutorial]" tag in the title to avoid confusions. The thread seemed a help request to me first.
that's an interesting thing.

Just use AirDroid 2 and u r good to go ^^

For this I'm using RootFTP, but is nice to know that ESFileEx can do this, I susect it, but i dont had time to look at.

[Solved] Sync with Mac

Hello there, I want to sync my music with my phone (Nokia Lumia 920), I searched the internet and saw that you need an application for this if you're on a Mac with atleast OS version 10.7, now here comes my problem: I don't have that version, the current version I have is 10.6.8 and is not compatible with the software you need and is provided by Microsoft. Does anybody here know if there is some other software (doesn't have to be official by Microsoft).
P.S. Upgrading my system to 10.7 is no option, since some of my software won't work anymore...
P.P.S There is a Mac version available for 10.6.8, but that is for Windows Phone 7.

You don't need special software at all. Unlike WP7 (which did need special stuff), WP8 just uses MTP (Media Transfer Protocol) to sync. This is a widely-supported protocol - there are at least a half-dozen Linux programs that provide it; I'm sure there are OS X ones - and you should be able to use lots of different options. On Windows, you can just use Explorer (Finder, on OS X) to browse the phone's media libraries and copy stuff on and off.

That is my problem, it doesn't show up in Finder at all, I also looked in Disk Utilities to see if the disk was "hidden", but it wasn't. You really need a program on Mac OS X if you're below version 10.7...

You need *a* program (Finder is a program...). You don't need a special one from MS. As I said, many Linux programs will happily speak MTP. You just need to find such a program for OS X. I'm sure they exist. Search for "MTP client on OS X" or some such thing online, you'll probably find something.
Oh, and stop using the products of a company that intentionally renders their systems obsolete after a few years. Apple sucks. Backward compatibility means I can run 16-year-old programs like Total Annihilation on my Win8 machine, if I want to.

The Solution
Seems like I found the solution:
From the Mac OS X desktop, hit Command+Shift+G and enter /System/Library/CoreServices/
Locate SystemVersion.plist and make a backup copy of it to the desktop
Open a terminal. (If you don't know how to find it, type terminal in spotlight, in the top right-hand corner)
Type in
sudo nano /System/Library/CoreServices/SystemVersion.plist
Locate the keys ProductUserVisibleVersion and ProductVersion and change them from “10.6.8″ to “10.7.2″
Hit Ctrl+O then Enter to save the file (make sure you got the rights to edit in the folder!). Then Ctrl+x to exit nano.
Now launch the App Store and install Windows Phone but don't open it.
When the application has finished downloading, go back to the terminal and type in
sudo nano /Applications/Windows\ Phone.app/Contents/Info.plist
Find the field LSMinimumSystemVersion and change its string from "10.7" to "10.6.8"
Hit Ctrl+O then Enter to save the file. Then Ctrl+x to exit nano (don't close the terminal, you'll need it again later on).
Then type in
sudo nano /System/Library/CoreServices/SystemVersion.plist
and change back the ProductUserVisibleVersion and ProductVersion and change them to “10.6.8″.
You can now try to open the application by double clicking on it the application folder, if it doesn't work, don't panic, it didn't on my computer either. One more step is needed :
Go to your Applications folder, right click on Windows Phone and then on Show Package Content. Then go to Contents > MacOS, there will be a file here, it is the application. If you open it, a terminal window will open as well as the application which works perfectly fine. Note that if you close Terminal, the application will close as well. Therefore, don't close Terminal.
The icon will keep its strikethrough but it will work.
