    Transferring files from W7 to Android rooted phone


    Hello:

    The issue is, I'm trying to learn how to transfer files from my notebook computer to my Android phone via the command line utility( C:\ ).

    I've tried going to the directories where the files are located then using the command : copy(file name) H:/(android phone directory)/sdcard/folder destination.

    What am I doing wrong?

    Much thanks in advance

    Could it be a simple typo? The path should be typed with backslash \ instead of slash /, so the path should be H:\sdcard\folder instead of H:/sdcard/folder.

    In addition to what Kari noted, Windows command line does not like spaces in file paths. If there is a space an any path, such as: copy C:\Program Files\yadda yadda H:\Some Folder wrap both paths in double quotes. Like: copy "C:\Program Files\yadda yadda" "H:\Some Folder" and hit Enter.

    Thanks to both of you. It is H:/ and also since Android stores files by default to the sdcard, that folder need not be designated. Path = H:/(destination folder).

    Much thanks again.:)
