If you can transfer one file successfully over your cable now, can you use tar, cpio, or pax to create a single archive file containing everything you want to transfer and use the archive files to transfer your data back and forth?

What command(s) do you use to successfully transfer a file over your cable?

Can you mount the Android phone's filesystem (read-only obviously) from Solaris using your cable? That would allow you to rsync from the phone to Solaris.

Does your phone have multiple filesystems mounted, or is everything in the root filesystem? If it has multiple filesystems and you can put the files you want to sync on a filesystem that your phone doesn't need to write to while files are being synced, you could unmount that filesystem on your phone, remount it read-only, and then mount it read-write on Solaris to rsync back to your phone. (Just don't forget to unmount the Adroid filesystem from Solaris before you unmount it again on your phone and remount it read-write on your phone.)

Does your phone's OS include support for an NFS server? If so, can you export an NFS filesystem from your phone through your cable or by WiFi and mount that NFS filesystem on Solaris so you can rsync both ways?

Does you phone's OS include support for mounting NFS filesystems from a remote NFS server? If so export an NFS filesystem from your Solaris system and mount it on your phone...

If you can't cross-mount filesystems, are ftp, rcp, or even uucp possible?

NAME

       phones - File containing the remote host phone number database

SYNOPSIS

       /etc/phones

       The /etc/phones file contains the system-wide private phone numbers for the tip(1) program.

DESCRIPTION

       This file is normally unreadable, and so may contain privileged information.  The format of the file is a series of lines of the form: sys-
       temname	 phone-number

       where systemname is defined in the /etc/remote file and phone-number is the system phone number terminated only by a comma or by the end of
       the line.  Only one phone number per line is permitted.	However, if more than one line in the file contains the same system name, tip will
       attempt to dial each one in turn, until it establishes a connection.

EXAMPLES

       The following example shows the entry in /etc/phones for the system, zeus: zeus		    9=555-9898

       In this example, the = sign (or an asterisk) forces the autocall units to pause and wait for a second dial  tone,  when	going  through	an
       exchange.  The = is required by the DF02-AC (an asterisk would be required by the BIZCOMP 1030).
