WiFi Direct, quickly transfer files between Android phones

WiFi Direct, fast transfer of files between Android phones

We have smart phones, we have internet, we have Bluetooth, but there's no way to transfer files between two phones at high speed. Bluetooth, speed is too low. Through the internet, we are limited by the bandwidth provider. The solution would be to connect directly to phones. Fortunately there is WiFi Direct, which together with the application not throw Super Beam files from one phone to another speed WI-FI.
Wi-Fi Direct is a protocol that allows devices to connect with each other directly, without requiring a router.

WiFi Direct, quickly transfer files between Android phones

How to transfer files directly from one phone to another android?
1. Connect phones with WiFi Direct (as in the tutorial).
2. Install the mobile app Super Beam in Play Store.
3. Open the application and go to "files and folders"
4. Find the file you want to send / select and press the blue button below.
5. Put phones back-to-back and confirm sending or scan the screen, with your destination file.

What is the speed of transfer?
Transfer speed depends on the speed you can reach your wireless network card. On most modern phones with standard AC 802.11, 433 speed can be Mbps (55 MB / s) or greater, that if both phones have AC.
In my case only 40-speed 42Mbps because the phone was receiving was a Nexus4 that being older does not have a very fast network card.

  • Howdy

    Can you please make a video tutorial with NAS (network attached storage)?

    With configuration, running movies / series on smart TV possibly and downloading torrents if the device supports such a thing.

    Thank you

    • What the hell have you seen this good tutorial? I have not seen anything good.
      I do not know what's going on videotutorial.ro but lately almost 90% tutorials are only made worse without not seem important to you?

        • Yes, exactly! Totally awkward ...... I mean it's not like too few know about WiFi Direct and what it does ..... and anyway it is known that the world only transfers bluethoot ..... but why be so advanced? Let's transfer again via infrared .... :)

  • A bluetooth tutorial shit is simpler and faster, you don't need additional programs you don't have to turn off wireless overall it doesn't deserve "direct wifi" ie, but it's not directly made to be complicated and I can't force friends to download super bim ala, so I'm still on bluetooth.

    • Daniel, if it doesn't bother you that he explains to you how to make it easier, it's not Cristi's fault. and you don't need a wfi connection when transferring via wfi directly. I transferred with a speed of 24 mb / s through wfi a file of 6 mb in 3 seconds. via blutooth takes 2 to 3 minutes to transfer. now you can have SI Higher speed through wfi directly depends on the wfi board how much it is.

  • Very good this method for transferring large files, small files via Bluetooth is still simpler.
    Unrelated topic, please have found a solution to the problem of most phones with Android 5.1 on customizing ring tones for each contact? Thank you.

  • Windows phone users are required tutorials acesta.Dar not only because there are fewer users wp, not to get too involved in making tutorials dedicated to Windows Phone.

  • What are grumpy! On this website you can find tutorials from the simplest to the most advanced. Now everyone depends on the level of IT that needs! Although I consider myself advanced in IT, more and take a look here for updates. Let the man to publish what he wants, it's his website, and end with whining.

  • what large files are transferred from one phone to another? apart from 2, 5 pictures, 1, 2 songs .....
    I didn't need to transfer anything so big, nor do I have "big" files.
    if I transfer more from my desktop or laptop, I use anysend on my phone. pictures, pdf, a song ....
    the method presented in the tutorial I think is most suitable for offline transfer (without internet, router ...) when they are not found via Bluetooth as there are still cases.

    • you're right man to transfer some pictures and music and a small video does not need "wifi direct" is enough and bluetooth to share with friends, to put on the pc pictures or video made with the phone use data cable not wifi direct

      for Christ, you need to transer so large amounts of data through WiFi directly 2gb data (photos, music, video and documents) between phones, do you understand?

      • For your information, today most have phones that shoots Full HD, thou hast ever once asked to check how a movie deal 5 minutes of Full HD? Of course not, if you have a S5 and shoot with maximum clarity, 5 minutes is about 1Gb. And pictures already 5-10 Mb deal today, if I have to send 20 what? Stay 3 hours?
