Downloaded it yesterday and works perfectly. Thanks!

Re: [Announce] WifiTrans wifi file transfer for Harmattan
 

Works flawlessly! Big thanks to you mate, this will definitely make life much easier for me when i'm at friends&familys and need to access docs from my phone. (no one ever seems to have USB cables to hand, lol)

Re: [Announce] WifiTrans wifi file transfer for Harmattan
 

Thanks for this very useful app, I transfer files from and to my N9 every day, so this will be very easy now.

I found a small bug: when a directory has an accent on a letter, this directory is not readible (ex. Vidéo becomes Vidéo).

Re: [Announce] WifiTrans wifi file transfer for Harmattan
 

Thanks for reporting the bug, will look into and fix it ;)

Re: [Announce] WifiTrans wifi file transfer for Harmattan
 

This may sound stupid, but will someone tell me what I need to do to get this or any other app from apps.formeego.com? I already registered a few months back. I never had luck downloading files from apps.formeego.com I keep getting 'apps://4629/' when I select the app to download or some random number for other apps.

Downloading from both my desktop and N9.

Re: [Announce] WifiTrans wifi file transfer for Harmattan
 

Do you have the apps formeego client installed on your N9?

Re: [Announce] WifiTrans wifi file transfer for Harmattan
 

Can somebody post a direct link? Apps formeego is just crap, always the same issue: "Can't Install, Installation package not found".

Re: [Announce] WifiTrans wifi file transfer for Harmattan
 

How do I upload files to n9?

Re: [Announce] WifiTrans wifi file transfer for Harmattan
 

an n900 version will be nice......

Re: [Announce] WifiTrans wifi file transfer for Harmattan
 

Lazy bum. ;)

Re: [Announce] WifiTrans wifi file transfer for Harmattan
 

It looks like you don't have the Apps for MeeGo client installed (it registers the apps protocol and automatically handles all these weird URLs.

How to install the Apps for MeeGo client
Just visit the Apps for MeeGo website using the default browser on your N9.

You should see a big Download client on the left. Click it and download the client.

If it doesnt show up for some reason, you can access the page with the button directly:
http://apps.formeego.org/basecategor...1.0/harmattan/
And this is the URL for the client download:
http://apps.formeego.org/n9client

Re: [Announce] WifiTrans wifi file transfer for Harmattan
 

I have a very dumb question.. how do I upload files ?? I could download from the phone fine.

Thanks for the wonderful app. :)

As you can see from the post title, this application is divided to 2 versions which is the paid (WifiTrans) and the free(WifiTrans Free) version. The paid version has all the available functions (sorry for bull-shitting :P )and the free version only has file browsing and download function (without the upload and image preview).*

Re: [Announce] WifiTrans wifi file transfer for Harmattan
 

Hi,

The apps (free and full version) is available at Nokia Store! Link to the app page on Store has been updated at the first post, thanks

Re: [Announce] WifiTrans wifi file transfer for Harmattan
 

How about changing username and having a custom password? It's annoying to keep typing a different password on each startup...

Re: [Announce] WifiTrans wifi file transfer for Harmattan
 

Whats up with all the .pngs that show up in my gallery? Can you make them go into a hidden folder instead of the /wifitrans in MyDocs?

Re: [Announce] WifiTrans wifi file transfer for Harmattan
 

how about auto WiFi sync between N9 and computer? Can this app be extended to allow that ?

Re: [Announce] WifiTrans wifi file transfer for Harmattan
 

Will be available on the next update :)

Re: [Announce] WifiTrans wifi file transfer for Harmattan
 

Will try to make it into the /home/user folder on the next update :D

Re: [Announce] WifiTrans wifi file transfer for Harmattan
 

Don't have this plan in the near future, maybe someone can take this and extend it? The source code is available at gitorious ;)

Re: [Announce] WifiTrans wifi file transfer for Harmattan
 

Great app - but one thing is missing imho: creating new folders on N9 from the browser - would that be possible to add to future releases?

Re: [Announce] WifiTrans wifi file transfer for Harmattan
 

Thanks for the suggestion, since v0.1.1 is released and submitted, I guess it will only appear on v0.1.2.

Re: [Announce] WifiTrans v0.1.1 wifi file transfer for Harmattan
 

V0.1.1 with manual username and password input and bug fix is available. Available at nokia store and apps.formeego. Changelog is avialable at 1st post ;)

Re: [Announce] WifiTrans wifi file transfer for Harmattan
 

So is this still manifesed in the latest build?

Re: [Announce] WifiTrans wifi file transfer for Harmattan
 

It's solved in the latest (v0.1.1) release, please remove the wifitrans folder in your /home/user/MyDocs/ directory to avoid the pngs show up in the gallery

Re: [Announce] WifiTrans wifi file transfer for Harmattan
 

Great news, indeed. Thanks!

Re: [Announce] WifiTrans wifi file transfer for Harmattan
 

I get bad gateway following that link on my phone and on my desktop and a search on the store for appsformeego or apps formeego gets no search results

Re: [Announce] WifiTrans wifi file transfer for Harmattan
 

Same for me (getting bad gateway) while accessing apps.formeego.com from browser and also client on phone. Try download it from Nokia Store, it's already available at Store ;)

Re: [Announce] WifiTrans v0.1.1 wifi file transfer for Harmattan
 

I'm getting "IE cannot display this webpage" when trying to upload a file to my Downloads Folder...

Also, is the 'back' button supposed to do something in the main menu of the app? Coz it's not doing anything...

Re: [Announce] WifiTrans v0.1.1 wifi file transfer for Harmattan
 

Hi, this application does not support file upload with IE because it uses HTML5 File API which is not available for IE9 and below, please use a HTML5 supporting browser (Chrome, Firefox and etc) :)

The back button on the home page does nothing. I should've disable it on the home page. Thanks for reminding :)

Re: [Announce] WifiTrans v0.1.1 wifi file transfer for Harmattan
 

Do you think you could add web dav capabilities for your web server?
That would solve sync, folder creation and all that high level stuff as many OS can mount webDav servers (or at least have dedicated clients for them)?
No idea about the difficulty.

Re: [Announce] WifiTrans v0.1.1 wifi file transfer for Harmattan
 

Can't promise anything yet, cause I'm also no idea on how difficult it is.... :D

Re: [Announce] WifiTrans v0.1.1 wifi file transfer for Harmattan
 

is it also possible to add option for 'fixed' password that user sets up? Typing new one each time I connect to my pc is tiresome (i'm a lazy man;) )

Re: [Announce] WifiTrans v0.1.1 wifi file transfer for Harmattan
 

It's available on the latest version (v0.1.1) with the custom username and password :)

Re: [Announce] WifiTrans wifi file transfer for Harmattan
 

Hi, I think this bug is fix with the latest version (v0.1.2, available at apps.formeego.com). Can you please help me to test it out? Thank you very much :)

Re: [Announce] WifiTrans wifi file transfer for Harmattan
 

Works for me :) Also, another idea: deleting files on N9 from browser - would that be possible to add? If it's already in then I'l be both:
a) much happy
b) ashamed of missing it :P

Re: [Announce] WifiTrans wifi file transfer for Harmattan
 

Thanks. Right now I'm still considering to include this feature in the application for security reason. It may or may not exists in future updates :D

P/S: or add an option in the apps so that user can enable/disable deleting files from browser? How do you think?

Re: [Announce] WifiTrans v0.1.1 wifi file transfer for Harmattan
 

I think an option should be added so no mischevious person can just go ahead and cause harm to someone else :D

Re: [Announce] WifiTrans wifi file transfer for Harmattan
 

I also vouch for option, e.g. to set a device as read-only / read-write / read-write-delete.
