If you can force your user to connect via wifi such that he is on the same local network as the desktop, you listen for the phone's connection on a higher port and transfer the data to/from it over TCP directly.

Otherwise, the best way to do this at present would be via the internet, using your server to synchronize files and messages between the two devices.
