I've been trying to get my trinity to work as an USB modem to Ubuntu Linux not succeeding in it. I've gotten the phone say connecting but nothing. Can anyone help me?
I'm sorry if this has been gone through already but I'm surfing with my PDA and trying to find info is killing me with this screen..
BTW I also don't have gps under the settings.. I've upgraded the official ROM. Should I have it?
Thanks to everyone.
I've got the same your problem...
I can't understand ... usually I do it by a rfcomm connection next I use the dev /dev/rfcomm1 like a modem device
con this windows mobile it doesn't work
solution is here....

you should have pand and have to activate remote connections on the phone
so you will be able to navgate by phone trought bluetooth
this is a simple script that I have configured
#!/bin/bash
MACTELEFONO="xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx"
echo "connessione a $MACTELEFONO"
pand --connect $MACTELEFONO
dhcpcd bnep0
I am fighting with these challenges, i am near to the final positive result,but still have problems...
I hope you can help me.
1) connect to internet via DUN
2) Connect to internet via PAN
3) Connect to internet via USB modem
4) Connect to internet via USB Internet sharing
5) Browsing and synchronizing the device
These are the little result so far :
1) Installed this cab :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1351044&postcount=21 (thanx to the Author) and DUN is again available.
IT works without problems with Winzoz, but i am not succeeding with Linux.
I made the usual steps (like this post explain, i.e. : http://klamstwo.org/evad/archives/20 ) linux finds the modem but cannot make it call... (init strings for the modem perhaps?)
What the init string for the TyTN modem?
Any Hints?
( an A1000 works perfect via DUN and the same stick)
2) I followed this guide (thanks to the author) http://www.klamstwo.org/evad/archives/40
And the whole thing works (bnet is connected with IP address 192.168.0.187 and has gateway 192.168.0.1 ) except the fact that i cannot browse internet pages.
Could it be a DNS problem?
I'll try manual configuration and let you know.
3) I tried the connection using the ttyUSB0, modem is ready but does not initialize... HINTS ?
4) SYNCE or something easier?
5) I think Synce is the answer, but at the moment it does not work in my distribution (mandriva). A lot of problems during installation (RPMs and source compiled, non difference). I'll try again. I've followed the How to published around here, (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1550906&postcount=4) but i have problems with odccm... it does not install.
other ideas?
I hope this post could become a sort of "mini how to", combining different issues related to the same argument : TYTN and LINUX
Thanx in advance to everyone who will help.
Are these challenges so HARD?
No one here around uses linux and TYTN?
Let's try solving one by one,
let's start with USB.
I tried this one
http://www.mobile-stream.com/usbmodem_wm.html
with windoz it is immediately recognized as a usb mmodem, but with linux the ppp scripts waits for "OK" till timeout.
I also tried the old wirelessmodem, the one for WM5, posted here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=306041 ,
but it does not show the kind of connection in the box (it is blank).
I tried to start it even if the box is blank, Windows recognizes it as a serial device, linux gets a lot of "OK" (KPPP) and Tytn shows the message "Please end data call first!"
I also tried this:
http://www.myehud.com/xv6600/usbmodem.html
But when i hit start It says "Not registered to the network!".
This is about Linux and USB moden... perhaps someone of you has succedeed?
Please report.
The other issue would be having internet sharing working with linux and usb ...
So linux users, let's try...
i'm a ubuntu user, and i feel you.. i don't want to run virtual box, so i just deal with no direct pda syncing.
i tried synce, and failed twice, months apart. (probably my fault somehow)
i do however have to use windows at work, so i end up doing most of my flashing and such there.
though, if you find a good NATIVE solution, let me know!
I am using Kubuntu, and can browse the My Documents folder of my PDA, so at least everything is talking to each other. However, I have not got round to configuring the synchronisation side of things; hopefully it should be possible.
Neil,
did you install synceor is somethingnative in your distribution?
Ahd what about the point 1 to 4?
Whether as internet sharing or modem, usb o BT, are you using the Tytn to connect thelinux box to the net?
I am really coing mad, i feel i am so near but i still cannot...
I don't understant why the Pand does not work for example, bnet has the right IP, has it's gatewaqy but still i cannot browse the net...
devilman - no, it was not native; I think it was SynCE, although, I can't be sure. It took some tinkering to get it going, but, now the device is immediately recognised when it is plugged in (USB) and ActiveSync is run.
To get the next stage working, I need to override the choice of library, as it continually tries to use an old version (libsync, I think), even though a new one is installed.
I have not tried 1-4, and, would not be sure how to do them, other than just trying to mount the device as a modem, and then using *99# as the number. In terms of init strings, these vary slightly by service- for example, for Vodafone UK, it is:
Code:
z+cgdcont=1,”IP”,”internet”
(The "z" at front is the AT command for modem reset; it might or might be necessary, but, sometimes helps the connection to work.)
well, I tried, as said in the first post,to use tytn asmodem.
To have it working with BT you have to install the hack in order to have DUn again.
To have it recognizedas a modem you have to put in in in the "modem" status (again, in WM6 wireless modem is not available,so you have to use the old one or the third party product).
In both case the lnux box connects with modem but i son't succeed in having it call the number...
I used the "usual" AT commands, like the "z" and the cgdcount...
Ideas?
I saw you'd got as far as having the device recognised as a modem, but didn't know quite how far you'd got. However, my Linux skills are so poor, I honestly wouldn't know where to go if the standard init. script did not work.
If terms of calling a number, would that not be *99# though?
Please, has noone found out how to have it working?
I am going mad about this.
I need a way to connect my linux box via tytn, usb or bt...
Any hint?
Uhm, for the last one (browsing the pocket pc) I use wm5torage. That turns your pocket pc into a USB disk and Ubuntu easily recognizes that as a removable drive. It is not the perfect solution but it is easy, fast and works.
and...i have another question
can anyone install an embedded-linux on Tytn, i mean use dual-system ?
is it possible?

I'm on Ubuntu 7.10 and running the official T-Mobile Austria WM6 upgrade on my Vario 2, Bluetooth PAN works flawlessly:
Code:
sudo pand --connect XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX
sudo dhclient bnep0
Back in WM5 days Bluetooth DUN worked as well, using the following chatscript in /etc/chatscripts/provider which I created with pppconfig:
Code:
# This chatfile was generated by pppconfig 2.3.17.
# Please do not delete any of the comments. Pppconfig needs them.
#
# ispauth chat
# abortstring
ABORT BUSY ABORT 'NO CARRIER' ABORT VOICE ABORT 'NO DIALTONE' ABORT 'NO DIAL TONE' ABORT 'NO ANSWER' ABORT DELAYED
# modeminit

# ispnumber

# ispconnect
CONNECT ''
# prelogin
# ispname
#ogin: replace_with_name
# isppassword
#ssword: \qreplace_with_password
# postlogin
'' \d\c
# end of pppconfig stuff
and the corresponding /etc/ppp/peers/provider:
Code:
hide-password
noauth
connect "/usr/sbin/chat -v -f /etc/chatscripts/provider"
debug
/dev/rfcomm0
115200
defaultroute
noipdefault
remotename provider
ipparam provider
usepeerdns
of course, for this solution to work you would have to set up the rfcomm port for your tytn in /etc/bluetooth/rfcomm.conf
Code:
rfcomm0 {
bind yes;
device XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX;
channel 4;
comment "T-Mobile Vario II Bluetooth Dial-Up";
}
you should now be able to connect using the "pon" command.
I hope this post is of some help to you... good luck!

Depending on your kernel version (I think this applies to 2.6.21 and greater, but check other docs to be sure), there is a kernel module known as usb-rnds-lite. Get it (links from synce wikis), make it, use it, love it.
I have used it to ICS several devices, 8525, 8925, BlackJack I and II... only quirk is that is works best to start ICS _then_ connect the USB cable.
I suggest you to read this article:

I am trying to connect to my university's wireless.
We have two different wireless ssid's that i can connect to with my laptop.
The first, called UBC is unsecured, but when you connect, it takes you to a web page where you enter your username/password.
The second, called ubcsecure, can authenticate with either WPA2 or WPA ( it shows up as WPA2-Enterprise).
The encryption method is AES for WPA2, and TKIP for WPA.
EAP type: PEAP v0 , Authentication protocol is MS-CHAP-V2
there is an option for mutual authentication using a certification server:
secure.wireless.ubc.ca
I am unable to connect to either using the stock HTC magic ROM, the HoFo community rom, and most recently, myHero 1.0.1
I have tried editing /system/etc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf to include
network={
ssid="ubcsecure"
proto=WPA
key_mgmt=WPA-EAP
pairwise=TKIP
group=TKIP
eap=PEAP
identity="[email protected]"
password="password"
phase1="peaplabel=0"
phase2="auth=MSCHAPV2"
}
Any ideas as to how to connect?
Data wipe.
Try to reset your phone's basic settings.
It could rebuild the information necessary to acquire the specific IP from their connection.
Manually entering the data couldn't hurt either. This is something that usually I would consider consulting the school about. Privatized internet connections could cause a number of issues for those seeking to utilize Wi-Fi.
The NAT settings might be too strict to support a handheld device.
Me too!
have you found any other solution??
i m here in ubc as well with my htc magic 1.5
when i'm trying to connect to ubc,, it keeps requiring the ip but doesnt connet
and ubcsecure doesnt even show up!
is really frustrating not being able to use internet in universityyy..
i thought by activating the wpa enterprise will work for the ubcsercure, i guess not??
will any of the heros rom work??
Im having this problem too.. anyone find a fix?
I have no idea why but ubcsecure seems to be working using JesterBlur ROM. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=567122
it works on the Dream? or sapphire? I don't think it matters but... be interesting to know
Dream. Theres a version for the Sapphire. Maybe give it a shot? ubcsecure still working here.
Ask for working setting

Did you use the UI setting or you edit the "wpa_supplicant.conf" file manually?
would you please send us your "wpa_supplicant.conf" file or its ubcsecure part? it would be the great help to have a working setting.
Cheers,
Ali
I used the UI that came up during first boot. How can I get to that file?
the wpa_supplicant is in /data/misc/wifi. But considering how it works using the ui settings, i dont think changing the config file will work...but please still post it.
I also tried replacing the wlan.ko from the jesterblur rom... and doesnt seem to be compatible with magic which is apparently normal because there is a patch for magic users that fixes wifi apparently. I will try the wlan.ko from the fix soon probably to see if it works.
Hi guys,
I'm at UBC with the same problem (I can't even connect to the regular UBC network). I went to the UBC help desk and they basically told me that they don't support android at all. The funny thing is I can connect to the fatport network with no problems but cannot connect to ubc, ubcsecure or eduroam networks on campus. I'm currently runnning on Cyanongen 4.2.4 (waiting for 32a kernel to upgrade to 4.2.5) on a rogers htc magic.
Anyway, the point of this post. If anyones interested in meeting up at UBC to find a solution to this problem it'd be great. I'm hoping we can eventually create a package of some sort that'll fix any android phone but lets focus on fixing the current prob first.
Also @fnkaze - aren't the dream and sapphire the same thing?
Er, i think the dream is the G1 and the sapphire is the G2 aka the rogers magic... well i think the dream has a differnt wifi driver? maybe.. thats the problem
I think the reason why they dont support android is because the stock rogers rom doesnt have native wpa2 support i think.... but the custom roms should have it.. the hero rom does have it... at home my wpa2 wifi works fine
I can also connect to fatport, i think the eduroam is also using the same thing...tho ive heard eduroam seems to work on the rogers rom at different univeristies..
I still have yet to try the jester rom wifi driver tho, ill try it soon...
Thanks for the clarification. And the reason eduroam works at other universities is because the WPA encryption settings are based on the uni's actual/main wireless network. So at different universites the authentication protocols might be a bit different.
What phone do you have? The dream or the magic? The jester rom doesn't work on my magic.
i have the magic, but i think it should work on the magic, they also have a seperate patch to get Wifi working for the it.. so im assuming its possible..
So yeah, Concordia University in Montreal has the same WPA2-Enterprise and this is how I got WIFI to work on my Magic (with HoFo's Sense UI ROM, would still probably work with a rooted 1.5/1.6 ROM)
In fact it will probably work with any rooted Dream or Magic
Remember you need your phone to be rooted for this to work, you will also need to have the drivers installed for your phone from the Android SDK.
- Go into recovery mode
- mount the /data/ folder
Code:
adb shell mount /data
- With ADB Pull the /data/misc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf file to your computer (in this example it will go to the tools folder where you have your androidsdk)
Code:
adb pull /data/misc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf .
- Make a backup of your conf file in case you mess something up
- Edit it and add in the configuration settings given by your University for Linux wpa_supplicant.conf files, so in your case
Code:
network={
ssid="ubcsecure"
proto=WPA
key_mgmt=WPA-EAP
pairwise=TKIP
group=TKIP
eap=PEAP
identity="[email protected]"
password="password"
phase1="peaplabel=0"
phase2="auth=MSCHAPV2"
}
- With ADB Push the wpa_supplicant.conf from your computer to the /data/misc/wifi/ folder
Code:
adb push wpa_supplicant.conf /data/misc/wifi/

Honestly that person at the helpdesk probably doesn't even know what Android is. If they says they don't support Android at all, well using their logic any Linux distro using wpa_supplicant.conf isn't supported which OBVIOUSLY isn't the case.
And no the Dream and Magic are far from being the same device.
Thanks!
I'll try this solution and see if it works. Will post back to let you know how it goes.
Hi,
Ok, I just finished installing the sdk, fixing udev to recognize my phone etc...
The problem I'm having is that everytime I run:
Code:
adb shell mount /data
I get the following error:
Code:
mount: cannot read /etc/fstab: No such file or directory
Help?!?!
NVM after reading the adb -help i tried this:
Code:
adb pull /data/misc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf /home/myuser
Ok something really wierd happened...I pushed a new wpa supplicant file and the rebooted the phone and it stopped seeing wireless networks! But ubcsecure showed up as a known network. If I long press it an 'forget it' I can see networks again, but still cant connect to any ubc network?
WTF>?
Is there anyway I could use by ubuntu wpa_supplicant settings? Anyone know where the file is on Karmic? b/c I cant find it at all
Hi
Simple question. Before HD2 I had Samsung Spica mad and I'm using there apps like:
EasySMS over WiFi - 100% working on Spica http://www.appbrain.com/app/easysms-desktop-sms-free/org.fireblade.easysms
WebSharing over WiFi - 100% working on Spica http://www.appbrain.com/app/websharinglite-file-media-sync/nextapp.websharing
and Samba Filesharing over WiFi - 100% working on Spica. http://www.appbrain.com/app/samba-filesharing/com.funkyfresh.samba
Gremote doesn't work too. It is strange becouse this app is different that listed above.
Since I have HD2 it doesn't work (and all alternative apps too). Samba see phone in workgroup but can't connect to it. EasySMS & WebSharing get connection timeout when i want to connect.
BTW: When i enter IP adress in HD2 browser i can log in to EasySMS or WebSharing. So what is the problem?
Maybe somebody can fix it? I try many roms (SD and NAND) = problem is on everyone :/
Sorry for bad english :<
we sharing lite works fine for me, enter your ip adress for the hd2 into your computer browser then enter the password
i have also iused other sharing programs without any problems
What ROM that you use?
I know how to use this program, and they don't work. It isn't the router issue cuz i can use that programs on my father LG Swift.
Here: WebSharing - connection timeout - http://screenshooter.net/2156127/ebuwvsv
I have HD2 with MDJ's CyanogenMod 7 v. 2.6 - Gingerbread 2.3.2 ROM, and I have similars problems. All programs like MyPhoneExplorer (can't find phone) Samba Filesharing (identical problem like Lanc1337) doesn't work.
I can't ping phone from computer connected to router. I check all on another router, problem is the same.
Before I have ZTE Blade and all work perfect!
I found ROM where sharing is working!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=912427 - all type of sharing is working here!
But i don't like sense -.- So, why this isn't working on all roms? Kernel or rom issues? I would like this to work on CM build...
Try this:
launch terminal and type:
su [ENTER]
iptables -P INPUT ACCEPT [ENTER]
iptables -F [ENTER]
of course [ENTER] mean press ENTER key
Doesn't work. After i enter second and third command i have error:
getsockopt for multiport failed strangely: No such file or directory
Errors is ok - don't worry. In my Ginger this is working for Samba (I'm using MDJ Cyan V2.7 NAND)...
Maybe try this at first (in terminal):
iptables -P INPUT ACCEPT [ENTER]
and after all this try ping your HD2 from computer (try ping -t ip_address to continous ping - it's good idea to ping -t your_hd2_ip from computer to see if and commands helped) and ping your computer from HD2.
Before I put all this my phone isn't visible in LAN (even with ping command). After putting this everything is ok (and ping is working ).
Put here yours output (after all commands) of "iptables --list [ENTER]" please. Maybe I'll figure someting out...
I check all, and:
I must enter commands:
1. su
2. iptables -P INPUT ACCEPT [ENTER]
and start pinging from phone to computer.
After this software like MyPhoneExplorer can connect to phone. If I enter only commands, and don't use ping command, computer can't connect to my phone.
It's very strange....
After enter iptables --list
chain INUPUT (policy ACCEPT)
chain FORWARD (policy ACCEPT)
chain UTPUT (policy ACCEPT)
I check all again from start to end.
I must enter to terminal su,
and start ping, after this i can exit ping, and I can connect to phone, and phone reply to pings. I don't must enter "iptables -P INPUT ACCEPT"
Any ideas for permamently solution ?
UP
Permament solution will be great!
Sorry for spam :/ Is nobody know how to solve this issue?
Bump!
Hi, also have this issue. Doing the iptables command doesnt do anything for me, it just gives me a bunch of errors. In my case it is enough to just ping my computer from HD2 using terminal emulator or other app (I use Net ping) and I can connect to phone via wifi immediately. After phone restarts I have to do that again.

I really like CM roms, it has some good features,but sharing apps also important for me.

Not only CM ROMs. I am using UltimateDroid based ROM and also have this issue. My guess was that it could be related to Gingerbread, but I could be wrong.
Has anyone solved this?
I just found out that by using tytung r6 kernel this issue is gone. When I turn the wifi on, connect to the router I can ping the phone immediately. Also Wifi tethering in settings menu works. I am currently having some issues with restoring apps but wifi works great. I have downloaded r6 CWM install from here.
Hi,
Just got myself some nice account at hidemyass_dot_com ... They dont support l2tp yet, and pptp just doesn't work (some encryption issue idk).
So I figured i'd try using openvpn. So I downloaded the market version of openvpn software.
Got the crt files, ovpn files and key file. Everything is in order. When I try to connect, I see that I can pass everything (even get a bloody IP). But the routes dont work. Meaning, I'm not routed through the tunnel but through the normal pdp0 interface.
I got into adb shell, adb logcat etc. This is what I figured out:
Routes are not "implemented" because it can't find the tun0 interface. Why? because its not in "up" mode. Since its not in "up" mode, openvpn software failed when it did "ifconfig IP MASK".
Now get this, if i manually (after openvpn authenticates, assigns an IP and says "connected") netcfg tun0 up, and then manually ifconfig tun0 IP MASK and then manually assign the routes which were automatically failed last time - it works.
Everything is routed properly.
What I figured was an issue with the netcfg tun0 up and ifconfig tun0 ip mask commands ... I read people tried tun.ko files (for each cfw) but couldn't find any for S2 (or lite'ning).
OMG I'm desperate. Help?

I've been trying to do this but just forgot about it when I first got the phone. You need to compile the tun.ko driver.
are you root?
you need root for OpenVPN
also the kernel needs to have tun.ko else it won't work
I wasn't able to test it myself yet but this is what I remembered from my Hero..

I'm root.
Now not sure about the tun.ko in the kernel. I guess it has the default one (I do afterall, manage to netcfg tun0 up and ifconfig tun0 IP MASK if I do them manually ... they fail when openvpn does them by itself) ..
Maybe I need a special tun.ko? how can I compile my own?
I suddenly remembered thread in which I posted a while back about SGSII and OpenVPN
that member confirmed it as working, the link is here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1074492
I will root my SGSII somewhere this or next month and try it myself then..
SOLVED
Had to reinstall BusyBox (so I'd have /system/xbin/bb folder).
Now everything works with the default tun.
re-install openvpn when prompt ifconfig directory select /system/xbin/bb. then open console add sym link "ln -s /system/xbin /system/xbin/bb"
your openvpn should now able to up the tun0 interface and accept the push config from openvpn server
