Puppy Linux Discussion Forum

Here is the easy way to transfer files from Android Smartphone to PC using Puppy wirelessly. The trick here was to use FTP. Setting-up FTP server on smartphone was quite easy. No android rooting needed.

* Connect the smartphone and PC on the same wifi network
* Download and install FTP server app from Google Play Store or any android store app
* Run the FTP server app on smartphone
* On Puppy, run gFTP/Filezilla or any FTP Client then connect to smartphone using the parameters given by the FTP server app.

NOTE: The smartphone storage location to be accessed by FTP Client depends on the features of FTP server app

With a Chromebook

Advanced > Files > Add file share

...and Puppy SMB server should show on list
