Android Upload Service
Easily upload files in the background with progress notification
Easily upload files (Multipart/Binary/FTP out of the box) in the background with progress notification. Support for persistent upload requests, customizations and custom plugins. At the core of the library, there is a Service that handles multiple concurrent upload tasks in the background. It publishes broadcast intents to notify status. This way the logic is completely decoupled from the UI. You are safe launching upload requests from your fragments, activities and services without worrying about locking the thread in which you are. Check the wiki to learn how you can use it in your App. You are also safe if your app is put in the background. All the uploads will continue to be executed also when your device is idle. Bear in mind that if you kill your app, the service gets killed as well, as it's attached to your app's process and all the currently running uploads will be terminated abruptly. -

WebUploader
A new file uploader solution
WebUploader is a simple modern file upload component developed by the Baidu WebFE (FEX) team, mainly HTML5, supplemented by FLASH. In modern browsers, it can give full play to the advantages of HTML5, without abandoning the mainstream IE browser, using the original FLASH runtime, compatible with IE6+, iOS 6+, and android 4+. When the two sets are running, the same calling method is available for users to choose at will. Using large files to upload concurrently in fragments greatly improves the efficiency of file uploads. Fragmentation and concurrency are combined to divide a large file into multiple pieces and upload them concurrently, which greatly improves the upload speed of large files. When network problems cause transmission errors, only the error fragments need to be retransmitted instead of the entire file. In addition, fragmented transmission can track upload progress in more real-time. -

AlterSend
Send files directly between devices over the internet with no limits
Send files between your devices without the cloud. AlterSend transfers files directly from one device to another — no uploads, no servers, no accounts, no size limits. Whether you're sending a 5 MB photo or a 500 GB video archive, the experience is the same: pick a file, share a short code, and your file moves straight from your device to theirs. Every transfer is end-to-end encrypted. Files never touch a server. There's nothing to sign up for and nothing stored in the cloud after you're done. HOW IT WORKS 1. Open AlterSend on the sending device and pick your files. 2. Share the short join code (or QR) with the receiving device. 3. The other device enters the code, and the transfer starts. 4. Files move directly, peer-to-peer, encrypted end-to-end. It works on the same Wi-Fi network and across the internet — same code, same speed, no setup. If both devices are on the same network, transfers happen at LAN speed. -
