highroller Posted October 20, 2013 Report Share Posted October 20, 2013 I have 3 devices. 1 laptop, 2 android devices. Currently, sync between laptop and 1 android device work fine. If I add 1 more android device with same secret, it gives me an error saying it is already in use. Is it a limit? Or did I miss something?

Harold Feit Posted October 20, 2013 Report Share Posted October 20, 2013 You can't add the same secret to the same device multiple times.Any device you add the secret to can sync the files. What is the EXACT message you get with the second android device? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
highroller Posted October 20, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 20, 2013 So what to do if I want all 3 devices sync same files?I remember the second android device complained the secret was already used or something like that.And it would be great if android can start the sync process instead of PC. And please add features to let android to sync with android, I am not talking about just transfer file one way.You can't add the same secret to the same device multiple times.Any device you add the secret to can sync the files.

Harold Feit Posted October 20, 2013 Report Share Posted October 20, 2013 Each individual device can have the secret no problem.If you're having problems, it's probably because your devices are mirroring their configuration for some reason. Sync, with the full access secret, is 2-way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
highroller Posted October 21, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 21, 2013 It works now. If my PC turns off, will both android devices sync with each other? Or do they have to wait till PC come online?Each individual device can have the secret no problem.If you're having problems, it's probably because your devices are mirroring their configuration for some reason.

capi Posted October 21, 2013 Report Share Posted October 21, 2013 It works now. If my PC turns off, will both android devices sync with each other? Or do they have to wait till PC come online? All available files will be synced among all online peers.(May be not entirely correct, if only peers with read-only secret are available, but between read-write secret peers, it will work.)

highroller Posted October 21, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 21, 2013 Is there a reason why android device cannot create new sync folder and secret to sync?And can bittorent sync wake android up from time to time to sync if it is sleeping?
