Hey All,


I have the GTKing and did the latest update a few days ago and since then my app LAN Drive samba server from webrox no longer opens. I have uninstalled the app and reinstalled it to no effect. This app worked great from the start when I got my GTKing a year ago. Please fix whatever your broke ASAP. Or can you install a samba server in the next update similar to what the Himedia Q10 Pro has. I like this box and do not want to have to replace it. Please fix ASAP. I use that app to copy files from my pc to the hdd in the GTKing as well as to an extenral hdd connected to the box.



Thanks.

Hello dear,  there are many app that's support network sharing on samba. Please try es file explorer or solid file explorer they both support samba share files.  Please follow tutorial in this link. https://www.howtogeek.com/191378/how-to-access-shared-windows-folders-on-android-ipad-and-iphone/  Hope this will solve your problem.  Thank you.

Hi,Is this a problem after updating the firmware? What version of firmware are you currently using?We tested on GT-King's latest firmware 909P0 that Lan Drive samba can be opened normally. Have you updated the firmware to the 909P0 version?

Yes it is the firmware 909P0 with the latest update that was available about a week ago now. If I uninstalled the app is it all gone or are there leftover pieces I can remove manually before installing it again to test if it works?

After deleting the software, there will still be residual files, please clear all the cache in the settings, and then reopen the software

Hi, I have installed LAN Drive samba server ver 6.6 on my GT-King with last firmware 909P0. LAN Drive app runs correctly and I can manually start LAN Drive samba server without problem.

From Win10 I can map a network drive (Z:) to my USB 3.0 external HDD connected to my GT-King. Using windows file explorer I can copy/rename files and folders but I can't delete them. When I delete them they disappears but if I refresh the folder they re-appears!! I can delete thme only using Windows 10 LAN Drive client app. I don't know why but I think that it's an LAN Drive app problem....

...... I did all steps above from another Win10 PC and it works!! I can delete files and folders previously copied.... I think that the problem is the different patching level between two PCs.
