Re: can I access SD card in cell phone?
Thanks!
I guess blogspot.com allows users to express freely
that's what Chinese government fear most
As to your ftp-like method, I'll say any solution must be simple
otherwise I will install kies and access it in XP
(ftp-like method doesn't seem simple enough)
I will try MTP suggested by other users.
Thanks again!!

Here's the text of
that page:
There are a few
ways to share files over wifi between your Linux machine
and your Android device. The first method I
used was to set up a web
server on my
CentOS box and then browse to it on the Android. This
wasn't an ideal solution for a number of
reasons, one being that the
transfer worked
in only one direction (from the web server to the
Android) and the second being it was a solution
too complicated for most
Android users.
The second solution was much
better, an app (free) at play.google.com
called Software Data Cable. It's
essentially an ftp server that runs on
Android (version 2.1 and above— it was nice
of the developers to
backport it). Once
installed, you simply start it running and then you
can transfer files back and forth between your
Android and Linux over
wifi. Software Data
Cable allows you to configure a password to access
the server. Still I still don't leave it
running all the time due to
security
concerns. It's simple enough just to fire it up when
needed.
On the Linux side,
open up two nautilus windows, one being Panel ->
Places -> Network Places -> your
Android's IP address, the other being
your Home directory or Desktop or whatever.
Then you can transfer files
back and forth
just by dragging and dropping them from one window into
the other— in either direction. I've also
found Software Data Cable to
be the easiest
way to rename files on Android: Right-click on the
filename, select Rename, and type in the new
name. If, in this process,
Android gets
confused about the contents of a local directory, on
Android exit that directory to its parent, then
go back into it. This
seems to force a
reread of the directory contents, bringing the cosmos
back to sanity.
It would be nice to be able to use Software
Data Cable to set up a file
server for a
group of people. In a sense, it already does this except,
with no limits on who could download what,
people can access files
and/or directories
everywhere, including your confidential information.
A proper ftp server would institute limits on
which users could access
which files and
directories. Perhaps we'll see this further development
in future.
