phneutral Posted February 24, 2015 Report Share Posted February 24, 2015 (edited) Hi there! I like the software, however with Android it seems very unstable. Network seems fine too. uPNP has opened necessary ports in router, even though I mostly use home WiFi for syncing. Here's what happens:I edit some txt files and very often randomly it doesn't seem to update the file on both my girlfriend's android and mine. (Cyanogenmod 11). When I check the status of the specific file in the App, the progressbar under it doesn't disappear. A cross next to it also stays, and at the bottom it keeps indicating that a few bytes are sent and received. The file seems to stay stuck. I then have to physically move the file out of the synced folder on the pc, resync, and place it back. --Update-- I see, it seems to be similar to this issue:http://forum.bittorrent.com/topic/34075-android-computer-repeated-editing-of-file-leads-to-non-sync/ Any solution for this? APP seems otherwise quite useless with Android. Hope to hear from you, thanks in advance!Kind regards,Dennis Edited February 24, 2015 by phneutral Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Helen Posted February 25, 2015 Report Share Posted February 25, 2015 as the linked topic indicates, Sync 2.0 seems to solve it.You may try it, here's the download Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phneutral Posted February 25, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 25, 2015 Thanks Helen. I tried version 2, problem then is solved, however, I personally don't find it as flexible. I wish to use the software also as a backup method via the network, and version 2 seems quite inflexible with configuring Sync folder locations and names, outside of the default Sync folder path.

Helen Posted February 25, 2015 Report Share Posted February 25, 2015 phneutral, "Plus" button in the lower right corner -> New backup and you will be able to pick backup location. For adding sync folders, 'Simple mode' should be disabled in Sync preferences as in 1.4. Though there was a little problem with it, though a workaround was found: share the folder again from PC to phone via QR code. All further discussions of Sync 2.0 should be done in the relevant thread Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phneutral Posted February 26, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 26, 2015 Ok, after quite some fidgeting I got things working with 2.0, thanks! I sure hope future updates won't mess things up. I do have some issues left with synced folder permissions in version 2.0, but I just started a thread about it here: http://forum.bittorrent.com/topic/34214-connecting-to-disconnected-folders-without-permission/ . Thanks again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
