Getting Started
If you connect your smartphone to a computer using the USB cable, you can also transfer
files between the two devices (to/from the internal memory, or the MicroSD card, if in use).
This will allow you to use, copy or store images, videos, music, text documents, etc. on one
or both devices.
You can select the file transfer mode when you connect your Aquaris X5 to a computer. When
you connect it, press the Touch for other USB options message to see the USB computer
connection menu. You can connect as Media device (MTP) , Camera (PTP) or Charging, which
allows data connections and file transfers between the computer and the device to be
deleted in order to improve the charging speed.
There are a number of ways to transfer files. The steps below will show you how to transfer
them via USB:
1.
Connect your Aquaris X5 to a computer using the micro-USB to USB cable provided. Insert
the micro-USB connector into the corresponding port on the device, and the generic USB
connector into the corresponding port on the computer.
2. Select and copy the desired files onto your smartphone or computer. Remember that you can
store them on either the phone´s internal memory or on the MicroSD card, if you are using one.
To transfer files in MTP or PTP mode from your mobile (and/or MicroSD card) to a computer
running Mac OS and vice versa, you will need to download and install the free Android File
Transfer app on your computer: www.android.com/filetransfer/.
Do not disconnect the cable while files are being transferred.
