App Store 1. Discover You can either use the WebDAV protocol to connect to your iPhone via Finder, Windows Explorer or Nautilus (Gnome) or use the Web interface and connect to it via your browser. If you are a Windows user, there is even a Discover Windows client that you can use to connect to your iPhone. Discover comes with several useful features. There is an iPhone-discovery mode where you can discover other iPhones in your network and share files with them. There is also a viewer within the app that enables you to view your files while on the move. 2. Briefcase Lite There are several limitations to Briefcase Lite compared to Briefcase. Firstly, you can only upload files, but not directories. This means that if you have plenty of files, you have to upload them one by one, rather than upload them as one folder. Secondly, Briefcase Lite does not come with the remote login feature that is available in Briefcase. Thirdly, Briefcase Lite does not allow you to send files to another iPhone, but you can receive files from a Briefcase user. In general, if you want basic file transfer and viewing functions, Briefcase Lite is sufficient. If you are looking for more sophisticated features like remote login and remote mounting of disk images and installing of packages, then Briefcase is the one to go.. Free Third Party Software Other than the apps at the app store which deal on the iPhone side, there are also several third-party software that focus mainly on the computer side. You only need to install these software in your Windows and you will be able to browse, transfer and control your iPhone via the USB cable. There are several software for Mac as well but they are paid apps, so I will not mention them here. 3. iPhonebrowser iPhoneBrowser is a Windows based file browser for your iPhone. Once you have it installed in your Windows, you can navigate the whole iPhone filesystem and drag and drop files to it. You can also perform backups in case you accidentally delete some important files. 4. DiskAid Same as iPhonebrowser, DiskAid is another software that allows you to browse and transfer files to your iPhone.. There are lesser options, but it has a far simpler interface and easy to understand icons. Other alternatives If you have jailbroken your iPhone, there are some useful applications in the Cydia app that you can use. 5. Netatalk Installing Netatalk via the Cydia app gives you the ability to connect your iPhone to your Mac using the AFP protocol. You can access your iPhone via the Finder and drag and drop any files to it. 6. OpenSSH OpenSSH may not be the most elegant way to connect to your iPhone, but it is the best and easiest way for you to tweak and hack your iPhone. You will need a SSH client on your computer to make use of OpenSSH. Cyberduck (Mac), WinSCP (Windows) and Filezilla (Linux) are a few great SSH clients that you can use. With OpenSSH, not only can you transfer files to/from your iPhone, you can also move the internal files around (do it at your own risk) or change the file permissions. This is useful if you are looking to hack your phone and install any cracked applications. The above mentioned applications are some of the free alternatives to turn your iPhone into an external hard disk. Surely there are many more ways/hacks that you can use to access your iPhone, some of them are paid apps and are not mentioned here. If you use any of those, do share them with us.

Turn Your Mobile Phone Into A Wifi Hotspot With JoikuSpot Posted: Not only does this mean you've got a wi-fi hotspot in your pocket - this also means you have less hardware to lug around if you want to be mobile and connected with your laptop. No more Bluetooth/Cable/USB dongles. Everything's now 100% wireless. Joikuspot currently runs on the Symbian platform, which means it caters for the higher end Nokias (N and E series) as well as a few of Samsung's higher end phones. Of course, all phones supported share the same criteria which is that the device has to support data transfer (eg. 3G, EDGE, HSDPA, GPRS), and the phone has wi-fi capabilities (needed to broadcast the wi-fi you create). It's extremely simple to set up and easy to use. All you need to do is run the program on your phone and voila - instant hotspot. You can even hide the mobile app in the background on your phone as you go about your daily business. Some of my favorite features include: Encryption support – Joikuspot is incredibly secure and supports WEP including 128bit key generator for your security. This ensures that you maintain control over who uses the wifi generated from your phone, and to ensure your session is fully secure. GPS Compatibility – If you feel generous enough to operate your mobile hotspot without a password and you want to share it with the world, Joikuspot allows you to sync up with your GPS (if your phone has one) and broadcast your location to the world on Google Maps. Multiple connections – Joikuspot allows you to share your bandwidth with others or multiple devices at the same time so several people can share a single connection. Auto reconnect – Works in the background to automatically reconnect every time a data connection is lost. This is crucial for a seamless experience. Joikuspot comes in two different flavors. Joikuspot Light supports HTTP and HTTPS protocols, which is enough to handle most casual users covering basic browsing, web based email as well as Instant Messaging. It doesn't however support some of the more enterprise and businesslike features like Outlook and corporate email. Joikuspot Premium however supports ALL protocols allowing users to use Outlook, YouTube, Web radio, FTP, VPNs, Skype and other programs requiring specific protocols that practically covers everything anyone would ever want to do on the web. The premium edition costs 25 Euros ($35) once off (which is incidentally still cheaper than paying for wireless laptop broadband), and also has special bulk licensing options for corporate use, but for most users (like me) – the free light edition is good enough. This software has also been making waves in the international arena having recently been voted by Forum Nokia as 2008's Star Developer, an award handed out to recognize the most unique and innovative applications developed for mobile phones based on the Symbian OS. Of course before you use this, ensure that you're on an unlimited data plan because the data usage is understandably intense for this application. As for me, I wirelessly hooked up my iPod touch to my phone, so I've now got a device which gives me the internet experience of an iPhone 3G… at a third of the price. Enjoyed the article?
