Android file transfer windows samsung note 8 install#
But I can't find any settings or options on the phone or the computer to browse or transfer files on the phone. Download and install Android File Transfer on your computer. Reproducibly Quite annoying Tested between an MS Surface Pro 4 (Windows 10) and a Samsung Galaxy S7 (running Android 8. The phone does show on the computer as a connected USB device. If one selects and wants to send more then somewhere around half of the 7th file the transfer always stalls. The phone does not show up in Windows explorer to browse files.
Today I want to transfer some files from the phone to the PC and now when I plug in the cable, the screen comes on and both devices beep but I am not offered to choose between charging and transfer. I didn't use this feature for months and a couple of weeks ago the phone told me MIUI 10 was available so I upgraded it it seemed very nice. On a final note, I’d like to remind you that there is no official way to access Samsung secure from PC but you can view your files inside the secure folder by unlocking secure folder in Samsung. When I plugged in the cable the phone it used to prompt me to choose between USB charging and USB file transfer. I have a Xiaomi Redmi 4A and I used to often transfer files between it and my Windows 10 laptop PC over USB cable.
