Guest djac965930 Posted March 2, 2007 Report Share Posted March 2, 2007 (edited) Am I missing some setup option? I'm trying to transfer video files from my PC to the Vario2 storage card. Methods I use is either explore, copy and paste using Actuve Sync on XP or a str8 copy and paste on Vista. I've also tried using the bloody long winded Windows Media Player sync option in WM10. As a baseline, I am trying to transfer a 160mb MP4 file. The fastest I can get it to go is in 1 hour and 6 minutes. Which is a dumb amount of time to transfer a file of that size. I've tried connecting is with advanced networking turned on and off but still no difference. HELP!!!! At this rate, I'd need to think a week in advance about what I wanna watch on the tube or what music I might like to listen to on the walk home. Otherwise, I love this phone but this seems to be a major drawback. And yes, I do have a memory card reader coming from ebay shortly - but that isn't the point!!! lol Edited March 2, 2007 by djac965930 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest RB_ Posted March 4, 2007 Report Share Posted March 4, 2007 I also found USB transfer slow, it seems like the progress bar moves up then drops down again, I think it moves to a quarter and drops back to start 4 times and finishes on the forth time. Why don’t it just move from the start to the end. The next time I transfer a large file I’m gonna use the SD adaptor in a card reader, it’s gotta be faster than USB for larger files.

Guest MPXtricky Posted March 6, 2007 Report Share Posted March 6, 2007 You have an SD adapter and card reader and you still use USB for large files? ;) I also found USB transfer slow, it seems like the progress bar moves up then drops down again, I think it moves to a quarter and drops back to start 4 times and finishes on the forth time.

Guest mikeeey Posted March 9, 2007 Report Share Posted March 9, 2007 You have an SD adapter and card reader and you still use USB for large files? ;) i was about to say i could understand his reasoning for transfering it on usb rather then the card reader, but then i relized teh card was on the outside, unlike the sda, lol. with the sda its way too much work cuz u gota take the battery out.

Guest argh Posted March 9, 2007 Report Share Posted March 9, 2007 It's still quite inconvenient. I usually find that I have to soft reset the phone to get it to recognise the card when it's been removed and replaced, but that could just be caused by some of the apps I run. It would be nice to get faster USB. From the specs of some of the upcoming HTC phones (USB 2) , it looks like we may be in luck. But on another note, over an hour for a 160MB file sounds a bit extreme - mine is a fair bit faster than that. Also, have you thought about copying files via WiFi?

Guest shandar Posted March 10, 2007 Report Share Posted March 10, 2007 Try the latest ActiveSync 4.5 beta. It has a fix for slow USB2 transfers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
