Yes. I tried the Android File Transfer with my MX4 yesterday. Nothing. I believe that the "bad batch" theory is very true on the MX4.Even my amazing Windows 10 discovery didn't work the following day. On Sun, Jun 12, 2016 at 9:58 PM, Michi Henning wrote: > I’ve tried this with the Nexus

I’ve tried this with the Nexus 4 and never got it to work. Seems like it depends on what device you have. Cheers, Michi. > On 10 Jun 2016, at 13:33 , Vic G wrote: > > Hi Bob! > > If you want browse and transfer files from any Ubuntu/Android device(both > internal memory and SD card) to you

Hi Bob! If you want browse and transfer files from any Ubuntu/Android device(both internal memory and SD card) to your Mac OS try this: https://www.android.com/filetransfer/ I've tested it with bq E4.5/E5 and M10 and works like a charm. Regards, V El 09/06/16 a las 08:01, Bob Summerwill es

This is probably of interest only to a very small number of people on this list, but this evening I have accidentally discovered that the Meizu MX4 Ubuntu Edition's USB seems to work really well with Windows 10 on a Surface Pro 3. https://bobsummerwill.com/2016/06/08/windows-10-nuke-and-pave/

Only reason I use ssh/sftp is being too lazy to grab my phone and plug it into my laptop. That's way too much work! I use OwnCloud as primary now. Then FileZilla (but will skip that and just use Nautilus instead). Plugging it in and drag/drop is a last resort. Sent from my iPad > On May 9, 201

Most people on this list seem to use ssh/scp. That's what I use. It's not at all convenient. But if you're using Ubuntu Touch I'd say you'll more likely than not need ssh at some point. Apparently there's been good progress getting synchronisation to ownCloud working: https://lists.launchpad.n
