I want to copy at least one file to a windows phone via MTP. I am able to connect to the phone and copy files from the phone to the computer following this tutorial: WPD: Transferring Content However I am unable to copy files the other way round (from computer to phone). This is my code:
IPortableDeviceContent content;
this._device.Content(out content);
IPortableDeviceValues values = GetRequiredPropertiesForContentType(fileName, parentObjectId);
PortableDeviceApiLib.IStream tempStream;
uint optimalTransferSizeBytes = 0;
content.CreateObjectWithPropertiesAndData(
values,
out tempStream,
ref optimalTransferSizeBytes,
null);
System.Runtime.InteropServices.ComTypes.IStream targetStream = (System.Runtime.InteropServices.ComTypes.IStream)tempStream;
try
{
using (var sourceStream = new FileStream(fileName, FileMode.Open, FileAccess.Read))
{
var buffer = new byte[optimalTransferSizeBytes];
int bytesRead;
do
{
bytesRead = sourceStream.Read(buffer, 0, (int)optimalTransferSizeBytes);
IntPtr pcbWritten = IntPtr.Zero;
targetStream.Write(buffer, (int)optimalTransferSizeBytes, pcbWritten);
} while (bytesRead > 0);
}
targetStream.Commit(0);
}
finally
{
Marshal.ReleaseComObject(tempStream);
}
I tested this code on several devices. It works on a normal mp3 player and assuming the tutorial is correct, it also works on an Android phone. But running this code with two different windows phone, I get following exception:
An unhandled exception of type 'System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException' occurred in PortableDevices.exe
Additional information: The data area passed to a system call is too small. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x8007007A)
at this row: targetStream.Write(buffer, (int)optimalTransferSizeBytes, pcbWritten);
The buffer size is 262144 Byte, while the filesize is only 75 KByte. I hope someone has an idea how to fix this issue.

I had the same issue, turns out the author made a simple mistake. You're writing the size of the buffer instead of the numbers you bytes you read.
Replace
targetStream.Write(buffer, (int)optimalTransferSizeBytes, pcbWritten);
by
targetStream.Write(buffer, bytesRead, pcbWritten);
