I wondered, is it possible somehow connect Jolla to android tabled and see/operate all files system for example like on windows with WINSCP and Putty?
If yes, can we get explanation?
Thanks

sure, use ConnectBot, or simply just ssh

Thanks, already tried JUICESSH, work flawlessly! And File manager HD work like WinSCP!
Just perfect! Don't need to take my laptop to work anymore hahaaa

P.S. a little tip, if you want to open another window with ssh connection, for example one window root and second nemo, just press back icon on the tablet and you will get popup window (Do you want to leave this session at background? ) -> press yes

Hmmm another question... If Wifi do not work, is it possible connect between them with usb cable ? For example this one ?

If one of the devices supports host mode, yes. Otherwice no.

How to check it ? My android device is Galaxy Tab S 8.9 LTE SM-T705.
And if yes, some instruction please ?

Host mode means it accepts same USB devices like a computer, so if you can plug in an USB mouse, keyboard, printer, etc to your tablet then it works.

But, as a general rule I think androids do not support it.

I have an el-cheapo Android tablet that's now gathering dust. It has USB host mode. In fact, it has only USB host mode, meaning you can attach a USB memory stick to it but you cannot attach it to a PC. I have read reports from people frying the USB circuit on the tablet or the PC when they tried.

But is a USB host mode enough? Doesn't the tablet also need to support MTP?

Thanks for answer. If I remember right, my tablet support usb OTG, and when I connect him to pc, it show me MTP checked.
Is this enough ?

I thought this was about IP connection and not MTP.
(MTP is crappo anyway and I hate its guts)

So, yes, you need to have the IP over USB driver for the android acting as host, true, but that is a piece of cake if host mode is already supported.

If host mode works, then it is just matter of loading up the needed kernel module for the IP connection. (and if it is not available on the device, it is fairly easy to compile yourself, there's no device dependent stuff in it, it is pure protocol module)
