Transferring Screenshots files wirelessly
Hi,
I got my Kindle PW jailbreaked. I know how to take a screenshot. If I want to transfer my screenshot file to my laptop to email it or share it, I must connect my Kindle PW to my laptop physically. Is there a way to email it wirelessly from my Kindle right away? Is there a file explorer or something which i can install in my kindle then browse files, select the screenshot and send it? Thanks in advance |

scp /path/to/file/filename username@computerIP:/path/to/delivery/folder/filename
(you can also leave out the target filename if you just add a trailing slash to the foldername...) eg. scp /opt/amazon/low_level_screens/600x800/splash.png alfarhan@192.168.1.2:/home/alfarhan/ alfarhan@192.168.1.2's password: BlahdeBlah will transfer splash.png to your home directory. after you enter your password. That's all already installed. There was a filemanager application I saw at one point. I don't believed it managed scp. would be probably relatively trivial to make a GTK application that does that. Worth looking into? if you don't fancy using ssh and the command line. Last edited by twobob; 01-23-2013 at 08:11 AM. |

Thanks for the quick help twobob.
I'm sorry but I'm not sure where should I run that command exactly? :/ |

EDIT: Winscp could do this too (but you would have to add the kindles ssh keys your PC - as the password entry would break this as-is) if you would prefer this could be very easily turned into a script. like: ./transfer <complete...filepath> do you have wifi SSH setup? or kterm?
