agraham Expert Licensed User Longtime User Dec 9, 2018 #1 Using B4A-Bridge v2.54 just downloaded from the Play Store. I eventually got FTP working after failing miserably by searching the forum where I found a screenshot of an older version showing a prompt on the B4A-Bridge screen below the FTP checkbox. Enter in Widows Explorer ftp://192.168.1.12:6781 This is missing from this version of B4A-Bridge so I didn't know that a non-standard port number was required. I can now open the internal memory root in File Explorer but I can't see a way to navigate to the external SD card. I can also now connect using the WinSCP FTP client on the desktop which I normally use in conjunction with the Android app 'primitive ftpd'. When I use use 'primitive ftp' on the device I can navigate to the external SD card but when connected to B4A-Bridge i am unable to navigate there, just like in File Explorer. Is this expected behaviour? It doesn't work on either of the devices I have tried so far.

The standard way to open the remote explorer is: B4A-Bridge FTP server allows you to access the secondary storage (File.DirRootExternal). Accessing external storages requires more work: https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/90238/#content Upvote 0
