Transferring Screenshots files wirelessly

[alfarhan]

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.

Thanks for the quick help twobob.

I'm sorry but I'm not sure where should I run that command exactly? :/

you would do this either in kterm or via ssh in a shell.

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?

i just installed kterm successfully above Kindle Launcher.
