I was getting tired of the mtp throwing errors half the time, the directories loading two minutes (not exagerating), the copying taking taking hour, so i said screw it and made my own file transferer that uses ADB, which doesnt rely on the slow as MTP. I made it primarily for myself, but since i already made it why not share it :D
From my testing (over USB 2.0) of copying 8.4GB pictures folder, with my app it took 4m08s, approx 286Mbits/s. With MTP, it was showing it will take hour and 3/4, aprox 10Mbits/s

Near by share by Google works fast (over WiFi).
I heard it was released for Windows, how well does it work? I might ditch the Samsung Link to Windows app then
For me it doesn’t work at all. It keeps losing the phone, unable to find it. I suspect it’s some network rule or something with my custom DNS, but I cannot find specifically what it is.
It works pretty well for me. But it can transfer files only, I think link has other features as well.
Yes, but after the 3-4 minutes that I need to spend to let the computer see the phone and vice versa
Not my experience. For me works immediately.
It’s not working for me with my Windows 11 PC and Galaxy S23 Ultra. They can detect each other but just won’t send.
Windows 11 and s21 - works great. One need to enable Bluetooth on pc, though.
Pretty strange. It’s definitely enabled for me.
