3. Set your own values, IS COMPULSORY TO MAINTAIN THE CORRECT PATH >>> /mnt/sdcard/FOLDERNAMEWHATEVERYOUWANTINYOURSDCARD |Example: /mnt/sdcard/download|
*** You'll be able only to access to the specified folder in the path then in "My network sites", so if you want to access to ALL your sd card folders set by default "/mnt/sdcard"

4. Ready! Start your FTP service (by pressing on the icon / long press and then "start")

It's time to configure the network place in Windows (I'm using Windows XP)


1. Go to "My Network Places"

2. Click on tools, then click "Connect Network Drive ..."

3. Uncheck "Reconnect at logon" (optional) and click on "Subscribe to remote storage or connect to a network server"
3.JPG
4. Follow the connection wizard, entering the FTP server address that Mi File Explorer provided you when you created the FTP point

5. Uncheck "Log in automatically" (optional) and create your own profile (using the same user name you put to create FTP point)
7.JPG
6. Put a name to the folder that will keep the connection between devices and will appear in "My Network Places"

7. ENJOY transferring files via WiFi instead of using an USB cable!!!


WINDOWS XP/VISTA/7/8.x USERS

To make to work MiFileExplorer modded by me or any other version is A PIECE OF CAKE in Windows!

1°. Enable the FTP server
2º. Go to your PC/laptop and open Windows Explorer or any folder (Windows Explorer ISN'T INTERNET EXPLORER)
3º. Put this: "ftp://xxx.xxx.x.xxx:xxxx" in the address bar, as the IP address set by the aplication and press ENTER :laugh:
4º. ENJOY transferring files via WiFi instead of using an USB cable!!!!


HELLYEAH!!! :laugh:

whatever i write in the folder formula it alwayssays invalid what sohuld i write if i write the /mnt/sdcard it says invalid?

Share> (long press on the icon) Edit> Set your own values!, by default the address is "/mnt/sdcard" if you want to change it to other address, you need to make a new folder in your sdcard or put an address there.
Example1: (creating a new folder un your sdcard) you create "ftp" folder in your sd card, so the address will be "/mnt/sdcard/ftp" (without quotes)
Example2: (link the existing folder) "download" folder is created by default when you open internet browser, so put this address "/mnt/sdcard/download"

You only can access to the specified folder in the path in "My network sites", but if you want to access to ALL sd card folders set by default "/mnt/sdcard" :)

FIRST POST UPDATED!

I hope it work for you! ;)
I've never had any problem with it...

2º. Go to your PC/laptop and open Windows explorer or any folder
3º. Put this in the address bar, as the IP address set by the aplicaccion "ftp://xxx.xxx.x.xxx:xxxx"
4º. Enjoy it! ;)

    I never understood what seeting permissions is. Help? How do I install it? Can't I just flash the zip?

    Yes, you can flash this from the CWM. Just download "ViperTheRipper_MIFILE_EXPLORER_MOD.zip" from OP, boot to CWM and then flash it. Done! Hope I Helped :)
