IT works... However the following is something I was not expecting: -For a app advertised to run on android TV, I had to sideload it on my shield TV -The remote command does not work...so you need a mouse or the new app to remote control the tool - Using ES explorer app, I could not connect using the anonymous user account

Installed on Android TV (Amlogic X96mini) with Android 7.1, set up using external USB drive as my ftp home folder and it worked flawlessly when connecting via FileZilla client on Windows 7. Getting Windows to see it as a network place doesn't work.

It seems that my shield is struggling with big files. But so does the (Plex implemented) CIFS/SMB support built-in. At least FileZilla is good at resuming a transfer.

IMO, one of the easiest ways to quickly share or transfer files from device to device. However it would be nice if you would consider making the TV version just a simple Enable switch in the Pro versions settings please. A "Disable Touch Interface" button could automatically work on Android on TV, and Android TV devices. And with it enabled it would just work on touch devices, all in one app. Great app none the less.

About this app

Same as Ftp Server Pro but this app can be run in devices without a touch screen as a TV.

I am still testing this app; if you have any problem with it I will make a refund before 24 hours.

Read/write any folder, including sdcard, in your android device with this ftp server. You can backup your photos to your PC, copy music and movies to your device, etc.

If you still do not have a ftp client I recommend FileZilla client (you can download it on http://filezilla-project.org/) but you can also use file explorer on windows.

Free version does not allow landscape screen.

Features:

Use any network interface in your device including: WIFI, Ethernet, Mobile network, USB...
Anonymous user (can be disabled).
One Ftp user (can be disabled). Name and password can be changed.
Home directory can be root directory,
Read only mode.
Passive and active modes.
Show hidden files.
Custom home folder.
Option to run server as a foreground service.
Energy save mode.
Languages supported: English, Spanish, Romanian, French, Italian, Hungarian, German, Chinese, Catalan, Korean, Russian, Japanese and Portuguese.

How to connect with Ftp server using USB cable:

This can useful when you have USB cable and not network available.
1) On your phone go to Settings->Applications->Development and set option "USB debugging".
2) Connect your phone to your PC using USB cable.
3) Start adb server. On your PC run command "adb start-server".
adb is a program that you can find on android sdk. Usually you will find it on android-sdk\platform-tools\adb.
4) Forward needed ports from your PC to your phone. On your PC run command "adb forward tcp:2221 tcp:2221"
You will need to repeat this step for all ftp server and passive ports configured in your phone. It will be easier if you use a small range of passive ports.
With this, any connection in your pc to 127.0.0.1:2221 will be forwarded to your phone in port 2221.
5) Run Ftp server in your phone, open settings and in "Network interfaces" select "Loopback (127.0.0.1)" or "All"
6) Start ftp server.
7) In your PC connect your ftp client to ftp://127.0.0.1:2221 (port might be different, it depends on your Ftp Server configuration).

Connections in this mode need to be always started by PC so only passive mode is available when using USB connection.
