![]() ![]() Now using Google Wifi and need to go look and learn how to set a fixed ip address. Thinking about this since yesterday and one thing I might do is to revisit setting the phone up on a fixed ip address (which I did years ago) and giving this a try via wifi. When I then ran a comparison, it was both complete (and surprisingly fast)Īgain, I'm posting this for others who may want to sync to a phone with no sd card tray for informational purposes and on the assumption that the author would appreciate the information. When the transfer ended, it didn't end normally and I finally "stopped" the sync probably 10 minutes after the sync screen stopped. ![]() The FFS transfer rates approached the high megabyte range at the beginning of the transfer, but then dropped steadily throughout the transfer. "Normal" large file transfers to and from the Pixel via USB cable are noticeably slow by comparison to wifi, but acceptable. It twas a 3.0 (usb-C) cable connected to a usb 3 port on the PC was a real puzzle to determine which PC was which. I had my PCs correctly named all along, but it seems that with the subscription expired, FFS does not display them. ![]() Tip, get your phone's name edited before you start setting up FFS. (The PC's USB port was 3.0)ĭoes anyone have any ideas or suggestions on setting up an optimal USB file transfer connection? It took over 6 hours to load less than 8 GB of files. talk about SLOW!įFS's speed readings were initially in the low MB range, but would then drop for long periods of time into the KB range and sometimes drop into the "Bytes" range. However, while the Pixel 4a has an abundance (135 gig) of memory which makes it ideal as an "always with me backup of my critical files" it has no slot for an SD card, so the initial population (sync) had to be done via USB C cable. The Moto phones had a Micro SD carrier, so, setting up the initial files were not a problem since it was possible to do so by removing the SD card and using an SD card reader to initially populate the SD. I had been using a FFS sync via USB cable from the phone to a two year old Lenovo Laptop running Win 10, and while the syncs were slow, it was not a big deal because only modified files were transferred. I just made the phone transition from a very old android Moto G6 to a Pixel 4a. I'm posting this since I have already transferred my sync files to the Pixel, but assume that others wanting to do the same might benefit from information and or suggestions. ![]()
