Hi All,
I have searched the forums but can't find anything on my specific issue. I used to have an XDA Orbit and if I connected it via USB I could use my PC's internet connection. Is there anyway I can do this with my shiny new G1. The reason I’m asking is I have bugger all reception at work and the Wi-Fi is located in another building, which is too far away.
Please help!
Hi,
My above post has been moved here but im not trying to connect my pc to the internet using my phone, im trying to conect my phone to the internet through my PC.
As far as I can see this post does not apply to my question, can somebody please help? I can't be the only one this applies to!
If the computer has wifi and is connected to the internet through wired network it can be done...
Is this your case?
My work PC doesn't have Wi-Fi. My home PC does though.
All I want is for my G1 to be able to use my computers internet conection via USB. My old XDA Orbit used to be able to do it via active sync.
i.e I can surf the web on my phone using USB connection as the access point
Any ideas?
As far as I know this probably will not work, but you can try reversing the port forward technique with ADB

Why would you want to surf the web through the phone when you have a PC on the other end of that wire which does the same thing, but better?

Several reasons that i can think of
1? Bad reception indoors, so i can waste time at work by downloading useless apps on my G1, and everyone thinks im working.
2? My cell provider charges me for internet bandwith usage (per kb/mb), im cheap and don't wanna pay them.
3? I'm a massochist, and enjoy using the G1's browser more than firefox(bleh!)
4? I'm running out of reasons now
All this hypothetically could be hypothetical.
Yup, im bored at work
Exactly, item 1 sums it up. I have no reception at work so if I have a data connection I can get email notifications and test out my apps. I can't believe no one else is missing this feature. On my xda I had it set up to sync with my various email accounts etc. It wouldn,t be a problem if tmobile's reception wasn't so poor!
I would assume it is possible but would have to forward ports from your computer to the phone, similar to how the thetherbot app forwards ports from the phone to the computer. But I may be wrong that could be a one way street for data.
Wow...you are a masochist As much as I like the browser on the g1 compared to other phones..I just don't see why you'd always want to use it instead of a PC
I don't want to surf the web on the G1 when right infront of me I have a PC. I simply want it to have a reliable data connection when I'm at work. As I have no signal from t bloody mobile and no wifi!
Nobody made a sync application similar to MS ActiveSync?
Why would we make something that is already built in?
ohh forget it. Your obviously not reading what i've written.

No you obviously haven't paid attention.
Why would we create something to sync our phone to our computer when it does it all OTA. On top of this how did you expect it to sync our calendar and such when it is all proprietary?
What exactly do you want "sync'd"?
And once again... I am sure you could figure it out if you read up on adb forward commands.

As my first post says I have no reception at work at all, this means I go all day without being able to sync my various email accounts etc. I would also like to be able to demo what our device can do to my collegues. unfortunately i don't understand adb or indeed know what it stands for and as I have no programming knowledge i thought I would speak with people that do.
I will try to figure it out for myself and post my findings here. I'm sure I'm not the only one who thinks it would be useful.
I'm also looking for some solution to use my Laptop's internet connection on my G1 via USB. The reason for this is I have a very weak neighbors wifi and only my Laptop can connect to it. I am writing android apps that need to connect to the internet.

you could set up an adhoc connection on the computer and connect to it on the g1 then bridge the networks
unfortunately my work PC does not have a Wi-Fi card so this wouldn't work. damn it whys it so complicated!?! :-(
You could just buy a router.
Hi Guys, My laptop wifi is broken so i'm wondering if it is possible to share my Wing's Wifi to my laptop via USB.
It is. I don't know about a default rom, but you can internet share off your phone's 3g on the rom i use, juststable. I've only figured it out for 3g though, not on a wifi network.
i''m using FingerMe currently but I used JustHome 19 before and I can't figure out how to make it work

You just run the Internet Sharing program included in the ROM, connect via USB, follow the program's directions, and you're off!
(Unless apreincher removed internet sharing...)
It should work with your WiFi connection on your phone, too.
Oh, and, on a WM6.5 ROM, it's called Modem Link.
hmmm.. i still can't make it to work. here's what I want to accomplish
- Connect my Wing to WIFI
- connect wing to laptop via USB
- share the Wing's Wifi connection with laptop
my laptop's wifi is broken so i'm currently looking for alternatives..

Hmm, well you said you are using the Modem Link program from WM6.5, correct???
You can install the original Internet Sharing program, here: http://thewingster.com/internetsharing.aspx
(direct download: http://thewingster.com/Documents/Internet Sharing.CAB)
Maybe that'll work for you, if you aren't using the Internet Sharing version already. And also, I think you're supposed to start the internet sharing, and then connect your USB. Otherwise ActiveSync might interferre.
ace, have you actually done this?
As far as I know, the default Internet Sharing program wont actually share the phone's wifi connection with the host computer.
The solution is to use Internet Connection Sharing Control v0.21, which is a third party application that was created specifically for arranging the data stream however you want. The author touts it as being capable of "Wifi to USB - basically the pda acts as a wireless network card for the PC (neat, eh?)." Looks like it might be a somewhat complicated program to figure out, but it should accomplish whatever he's asking.

The default Internet Sharing program has a connection called WModemLink, which might be WiFi.
I never tried it though, so it's true that the third-party app is probably better.

Hi guys, i would like to know if it's possible to navigate on Hero with the PC connection just like on Windows Mobile with ActiveSync. Thanks
not out of the box, no. HTC Sync is not designed to allow that.
I don't hook mine up to the PC at all so i don't know of any workarounds or third party apps, but i am sure that if it is possible, someone here will know how.
I know this has been asked before, and i have a nasty suspicion the answer may well be no.
Ok, thanks for the quick reply. This means that i have to wait a week before starting navigate with my Hero.. i've got a problem with my operator atm and i can't subscribe a data connection
............................
Do any of the custom roms around here allow it?
I am able to do this on an older HTC Touch Diamond.

You could do it on a Touch Diamond, because this has long been a function of WinMo. I'm not aware if this is even possible within the versions of Android currently available, but I'm sure it will come eventually.

Can you not use your pc as an access point and connect your hero to it via wifi for internet sharing?

How would I do that?
first of all, youd have to find a hero that actually works with an Ad-Hoc connection!
Do you not have a wifi network at home? if so, just hook it up to that and use your broadband.
I know this maybe an odd question, as why would you go through your phone when you could just use your laptop wifi card but does tethering to the LG E900 WP7 via usb also work if the phone is connected to a wifi network and the data turned off?
If for example, your wifi adapter on your laptop went belly up, could you use your phone to connect to your network and use it as a modem?
Or if you had no password on your laptop for the network but the phone had the password saved and you did not have the resources to retrieve it from the phone?
Just wondering as i think there is an app that does this on iphone.
Also Has anyone been able to tether using a blue tooth connection? I used to be able to do this on my old nokia 6110. lol

Interesting. Do you need to get out of diagnosis mode to use the phone once you're done tethering?
Don't know. Haven't tested the solution.
Hello guyz. I need some help.
I want to use internet on my lappy via sgy. I have tried usb tethering & creating portable wifi hotspot but using them, the internet disconnects frequently (specially with usb, the connection gets lost or doesn't respond).
So kindly tell me a way to fix these issues or some other way to use internet (like by using bluetooth)...
NOTE: I am on HSDPA network.
try foxfi (playstore)
and next time remember questions go in the Q & A Section NOT general section!!!!
Any other way...
Oh sorry for posting in the wrong secrion. I have tried that foxfi app too but the disconnection problem persisted...
Is there any other app or a way to use internet via bluetooth??

Easytether, the easiest app for tethering i've ever seen it works well, i used it in college to bypass the proxy, this way i was able to play Quake Live in class during exams ^^"
You must have Data of course
