  The entire damned phone is cheap on ebay.  I got a screen and LCD for
under $30.

  Plug them bad boys in cold and carefully, then energize.  That is how
I do micro-USB, regardless of what it is a part of.

  There is no "dozen".

  And as I stated USB IS 4 conductors.  IF Samsung or anyone else adds
more, they are superfluous, and if you look at the schematic images
google provides, you will see "sense" lines and the like, tied to ground
and such.  Micro-USB is five pins with just such a ground tied "sense"
"pin" added.  Still, no dozen. And Still conforming to the ONLY 4 pins
which appear on the standard USB plug on the other end of the cable.

  So I guess 7 pins simply "magically disappear" into the twilight zone.

  I replaced both the LCD and the touch screen on an S3 that was given
to me, and I only had 2000 parts left over when I was done.  Can you
guess which ones they were?

  And yes, I am a micro-electronic assembly expert (per se), up to and
including wire bonding.

  Show me where I ever made such a claim.  You need to quell the

  More like your retarded troll fuckhead response "gives great insight"
to the fact that you only have two firing neurons between your ears.

  Go back to the kook group, you retarded troll piece of shit.

I use ESFile Manager (Explorer?) to transfer files to the samba 
subdirectory on my linux computer (one button for 'select all') using 
either FTP or <something else> via wifi.  Some photos come through 
garbled, though, so it's more reliable if I just use a USB cable.

I haven't tried transferring anything to my windows machine.  Maybe I 
should...

Sorry, yes - it is Explorer. Put it down to senility!

Actually, looking it up, we're all right.
It's the ES File Explorer Manager

The best FTP client by far is AndFTP, and it's free.
A single long press will transfer a complete directory structure.

I don't have Samba set up but I could set it up on Linux if that
helps.

But, isn't samba for PCs?

Because I'm not a security expert, I'm afraid any time I am asked to set 
up a *server* on Linux. I prefer *not* to create a new server, which just 
opens the door wider, with respect to security concerns.

Having said that, apparently I *already* have an ssh server, because, 
while I couldn't even *find* a file-selection GUI in "Turbo Client" on 
Android, the app did appear to connect seamlessly to Linux (it showed me 
my /tmp folder on Linux from Android).

So, since I *already* appear to have an ssh server running, I think I'll 
use that, if I can only get the Android side to give me a GUI to select a 
set of files or folders.

Well, you could turn the server on only when you need it and turn it 
off when you're done. It's only a security concern while it's running. 
And I believe it can be made to be open only to your LAN and not from 
the Internet, but don't ask me how.

ssh is Secure Shell, similar to telnet. By itself it's not for 
transferring files, although I think it can be used with other 
protocols for encryption purposes. This isn't your solution.

Oh oh... that's important if SSH isn't the right approach since others 
suggested it, and I had presumed it worked for them. 

Luckily there were other suggested approaches, but I can only test one at 
a time ...

PCs use linux OR windows :-)

It's for sharing among computers, and somebody set it up for me so I 
can't help at all.  Somebody here will be able to, though.

Yeah. I know. In fact, here in the states, you pretty much can't even buy 
a laptop or desktop (non-server) PC that doesn't come with Windows, even 
if you want to put Linux on it.

But in the *context* I was using it, I thought it was clear that PC is 
the commonly accepted (old form, I know) for Windows PC. 

Anyway, I stand corrected (and sit corrected also).

  Bullshit.

  Nope.  "PC" is "PC".  In ALL of the computer realm, and that covers
ANY geographic location, one must SPECIFY.

  There is more than one "anyway" that applies to you, bub.

To anyone reading the "Scurvy" posts, please killfile him
and ignore his posts in this thread, and if you do respond, 
please remove the comp.os.linux.advocacy that Scurvy 
surreptitiously added.

I will plonk him the moment I send this, but, clearly he has
an agenda which has absolutely nothing whatsoever to do with 
the topic at hand.

I don't mind the guy having an agenda; but he can post his 
agenda in his own thread, as this one is about Android more
so than Linux (since the Linux side just works).
