I'd like to know which method of transfering offers the highest speeds. It happens once in a while that I lose my data while making ROM updates etc. as my phone is encrypted and that sometimes makes issues.
I'm using a OnePlus One with its fast charging cable. I wonder if I'm faster transfering files using adb push instead of using Windows Explorer. I reckon that I read that somewhere. Or are there WiFi apps that can transfer quicker?
Thanks!
adb pull/push
are also the fastest (MTP is slow due to abstraction). WiFi is slower than a wired connection due to interference and the added overhead because of packet headers. Depending on what type of data you send, a wireless SFTP connection with compression enabled might be the fastest (requires compressible data, though). – GiantTree Jul 17 '16 at 14:13
