902 Help:how to upload file to device via wifi?

I used to upload file with the app 'get-root'. However, this app does not work with the new firmware. Could someone plz provide me another method to do this?

Your best bet may be to download from the ereader, rather than pushing an upload from the computer. Various people have posted scripts in this forum that do that via wget.

Even easier to upload using Calibre.

YOU HAVE TO HAVE WIFI FOR THIS

Go to Preferences->Sharing->Sharing over the net and tic "Run server automatically upon startup".
With Calibre still running open the browser on your reader and enter the IP of your Computer (for me 192.168.1.xxx)and add ":8080" this should open your Calibre library on your reader and make every book accesible via WLAN
