I've tried about one gazillion suggestions to make Activesync work over USB on my Qtek 9100, and I've given up. I went for BT connections, which works fine.
However, RUU doesnt work over a BT connection (i get to the multicolor boot screen, and, of course lose the BT that would allow the update to finish...).
Is there a way to do it via the SD card, and, if so, can somebody get me the SD image for the latest french version ?
Thanks all.
What is the problem with your USB ActiveSync?
I thought I was going to go crazy trying to sort out mine, because it would just hang on "Trying to obtain address" (=DHCP) when I connected.
In short, the problem turned out to be having the DHCP service at "Manual" (go to Start->Control Panel->Administrative Tools->Services). I resolved it by choosing "Automatic" for starting the DHCP service. If it's not set at "Automatic" for the start type,
ActiveSync won't recognize the device because the background method of connection for ActiveSync involves the PDA acting as a DHCP server and your computer receiving an arbitary IP address in order to communicate with the PDA.
Thanks for the suggestion, but its one of the many things I tried... to no avail.
So, back to my original Q, is there a way via the SD card ?
i've read that there is a prog. to specially format the sd card, and include the rom extracted from the .exe... please help me, I can't find the reference.
Use bootloader
If you put your Universal into bootloader mode as documented here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=37432 then you can connect to your PC over USB without Activesync and run the appropriate upgrade program.
Although I have Activesync working over USB intermittently I found this the surest way to upgrade.
Hope this helps!
excellent !!
Activesync doesnt work, but the RUU does !!
Thank you very much
I am a Verizon customer using a 6800. I would like to use my phone for internet access on my laptop (I am presently using an aircard). I have no problem using Active-Sync, and with "Internet Sharing" I am able to establish a connection (USB / Data Network Connect). The installation directions for the phone call for Start>Programs>Modem Link and then Menu>Start. Unfortunately with DCD 2.2.5 I am unable to find Modem Link anywhere. Also, when I run the VZ Access Manager set-up on my laptop, it is unable to find the phone, even though "Internet Sharing" is connected. Does anyone have any suggestions??? TIA AARMD
try using WMWIFIrouter.com
it's a great program and i enjoy it
Tried it. It tells me WLAN is on and connected, but keeps "waiting for ICS" (whatever that means). I did read about, and install, IntShrUI, but it still doesn't work. Any advice??

I just recently rooted and installed Cyanogen 4.0.2, primarily to get WiFi tether going. It works just fine for the most part, but no matter how I set it up it refuses to apply WEP encryption. I have the checkbox checked and a passphrase saved, but when I turn on the tether and look it up on the PC, it says "unencrypted connection" and lets me connect to it without a password.
Anybody know what I'm doing wrong?
I have the same problem with cyanogen 4.0.4.
If you figure it out let me know
Have you tried looking at the Show Log option and checking for any errors? If no errors are showing up in the WT4R log, install a log collector or hook the phone up via adb and dump out the logcat. That should shed some light on the problem.
FTR I have no problems creating an encrypted connection on JF1.51 ADP1.
I have no permissions to publish to HD Mini ROM Development, published the solution here.
I have the solution to put wifi in Android 2.2 of Schlunds, the problem is in the process "htcUPCTLoader.exe" not allowed to continue with the process.
The assignment of IP must be static, do not get the IP automatically
Here I leave kernel with the new install
TESTED ONLY WITH ANDROID 2.2 Schlunds
Sorry for my bad English
hey thanks man
maybe u will find a fix for derefas sd card fix too?
Does not work for me. The zImage and Module are exactly the same files I use.
The Problem ist not the htcUPCTLoader.exe process.
tzacapaca send me his working 2.2. image and it still dont work for me.
The reason must be something else...
Perhaps bootloader or startup.txt?

Or the Windows Mobile rom used?
After trying the Android images, I had a lot of GPS issues under WinMo (not working anymore). At the end it was fixed, but could it be that the WinMo roms can be of influence on Android?

I start to believe is this...i'm gonna use use Stock ROM and i will keep you posted if it will be any changes
nsourm has a dualbootloader in his ROM
Maybe its better to boot Android not from "within" WinMo.
Can someone test that?

In my case the prob was "htcUPCTLoader.exe" it was not allowing deamon to start..so i had to kill it and then run the run.bat file....
Can u try it this way..??..connecting the Mini with pc..running run.bat...after that killing htcUPCTLoader.exe process in task manager..and then running run.bat file again..??.... it might work....if not..then there's no harm done
I dont need to try. The kernel module file (*.ko) in the image is updated. So the problem (at least for me) is not adb push. must be something different.
Codiak, your not alone. I am also not able to turn WiFi on. Do you get Error when you go to the settings to turn it on? It's like its not picking up the WiFi on the mobile.
The only thing I changed was adding in the run.bat
Code:
taskkill / F / IM htcUPCTLoader.exe
On beginning of everything, to finish the process before starting the adb. I haven't touched anything of the files zImage and adb.exe

This is my system (android 2.2) running Wifi.

Its the same behavior as the fixed module was not installed.
If you tab Wifi, it just grays out and do nothing. No error message.
See, im on the standard ROM. And no matter what I try, I get the same.
Ok, so it not seem to be WiMo ROM related. I use a custom one.
So my last idea is the bootloader (haret)...
Okay everybody, I noticed something:
I could patch the bcm4329.ko file, after android booted. Now you have to restart android in order to enable wlan. Often it happend to me, that an error in the android wifi settings showed up. So I went back to windows mobile and checked my wifi setting there.
As I've also encountered the GPS problem, where one had to switch GPS on and off again in android to make it work in windows again I also tried it with wlan. Before I run haret, I switched off wlan in windows. Now android was able to initialize and start wlan.
Also it was not possible for me to enable wifi, if the usb cable was still connected to the phone before the first successful operation of wlan. Afterwards it surprisingly also worked with a connected cable. Since I'm at work now, I can not test wlan itself, as it is only possible to connect via DCHP here. This evening I'll try to do so with a static IP.
By the way, this dynamic vs. static IP thing is a common problem in froyo. You'll find a lot of discussions in the internet for other devices like samsung galaxy and so on.

It worked, mine no longer displays as error. But I dont have any WiFi's to connect to as im also at work. But it looks much more promising.
Just we need to start looking into getting the battery reconised by Android, having to go into Windows to charge my phone.

Dont work for me My Wifi in WiMo was allready off. I changed it to on and booted Android = no luck. Rebooted to WiMo and disabled Wifi and booted Android again = no luck.
Did you get a error message before while switchig wifi on in android? I do not get a message. it just grays out

Unfortunately there wasn't any precise error message. As you said it only was greyed out with "Fehler" (error) written below the wlan switch. It's strange that there still isn't any solution working for everyone.
For me, no "Fehler" came up. Just grayed out. Same behavior like I never applied the patched module. But i can see the patched .ko file in the phone
I´m using tzacapaca patched ext2 file that works for him...
This guide teaches you to reverse tether your Android phone via WiFi. That is, it allows you to use your Ethernet connection of PC on your Android phone. It is useful for those who do not have WiFi routers and data connection. So if you have unlimited data plan for your computer, why not share the connection with your phone?
I am not the developer of the files supplied
Requirements:-
1.Rooted Phone
2.Wifi enabled Laptop or PC
3.Root explorer or any other application which gives system access
4.File in the attachement
Procedure :-
Phone:
Download Wpa_supplicant.zip and extract "wpa_supplicant" from it, save it on your SD card.
Open Root Explorer, and grant it superuser access when asked for.
Navigate to system -> bin and long press on wpa_supplicant; Select copy, and paste the file into any folder on your SD card.
Now navigate to the file you downloaded, copy it in same way, and paste it back to system -> bin. Note, you might need to mount the system as R/W instead of R/O by pressing a button on the top just before pasting the file.
Reboot.
▬▬Ubuntu (Must work for other Linux Distros too)▬▬:
Open Network Connections
Goto Wireless tab, select add, and set the following:
SSID:
Mode: Ad hoc
Leave other things unchanged, and go to Ipv4 settings tab
Set method to Shared to other computers
Go to Wireless security tab and set Security to WEP 40/128 bit key and set key to a numeric password (or hexadecimal one).
Check the connect automatically box on top of the tabs and press Save.
Your Android phone must now detect this network, and you can establish the connection by using your security key.
▬▬Windows XP, Vista, 7▬▬
Download and Install Connectify from www . connectify.me/download-lite/
Start Connectify Hotspot by giving a name and password to your hotspot and selecting the Ethernet connection to share. Make sure the security type is WEP or Open.
Disable your firewall (Simply adding it to exceptions doesn't work for AVG at least)
Now your phone should be able to see the hotspot and establish the connection using the password set.
Known Issues :
1.Random disconnections (Very less frequency)
2.Disconnections due to screen lock / sleep on laptop
3.For me Security mode does not works
HIT THANKS IF IT WORKED
ENJOY

@avilove4u
This is not a free solution , you need a wifi Pc (90 % of computers at work don't have wifi) and is too complicate for users.
Use my method : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1371345
It's a "One click free solution using USB cable" (no need to install other paids tools)
Not yet perfect, but still under development (I am the developper)
"This is a crap , as u cannot do much !"
Please stay on your thread next time before posting such kind of message on my thread.
No need to press "Thanks".
Ha ha lol !
Ur method has certain limitations :banghead:
Now adays every laptop and PC are wifi enabled !
I heard that connectify doesn't require root phone and we don't need that wpa_suplicant.

You heard correct (in most cases). If your device already supports ad-hoc network connections, then all you'd need to do is set up the hotspot with Connectify (or Virtual Router) and connect to it. Otherwise, this method's for you.

Without wpa ad-hoc network wil nt be shown in our device
And to get access to system/bin to replace wpa ur device must be rooted na ?

VERY GOOD AND USEFULL GUIDE!!
I've successfully shared the LAN's network of my notebook (DELL) with my android tablet (Mediacom 852i with OMA ROM JB 4.1.1)
Thank you very much for sharing your information.

I'm pretty sure you're completely wrong. You're whole post sounds like it comes from a jealous, whiny little girl. And until you can back up this statement, I'm going to assume you are either a liar or an idiot.
Useful app especially for area with bad reception and no wifi.

This is sooo useful...thank you.
I think my wifi router had broken a couple of hours ago. But now I can use ad-hoc connection from my PC.
I use Huawei Ideos S7 to connect to my windows XP sp3 wifi.
