How to "attach" USB Tool and activate "Internet Sharing" automatically at startup ?

How to "attach" USB Tool and activate "Internet Sharing" automatically at startup ?
I "liberated" my XP downgraded HTC Shift and succesfully tested 3G connectivity.
The problem is that every time I restart the device, I have to:
1) enter WM
2) Attach device via USB Tool
3) Enable Internet sharing
As WM is an operating system, I guess how to do this automatically. Can I write a "bat" file to do these steps or do you have any advice to achieve this ?
Any help MUCh appreciated.
Regards.

go to wm -win start menu --settings--connection--ub to pc--enable advance network connectivity.
this should fix the problem, cheers

Unfortunately, it does not solve the problem.
I noticed that the only thing I have to do is to activate Internet Sharing.
How to do this at startup, automatically ? Has WinMo some autoexec file or startup folder ?
Thanks.

Up, please. I'm so near to surf only starting up my shift

Up. Up. Up. Up.

Yes I'm sure you can do all of that with Mort Script,
Good luck!
And don't forget to post your final results so other users would enjoy of that!

unapproachable2kx,
can you support me ?

Maybe you can just drop the shortcut for the application on the startup folder or maybe DotFred's TaskManager can help(http://www.dotfred.net/TaskMgr.htm).

WinMo has a startup folder (\windows\startup\) that you can create a shortcut for "Internet Sharing" inside, the problem is that you need a parameter with the shortcut to run the "Activate" conmmand in "Internet Sharing"; 'cause a normal shortcut will just run the app, then you'll have to press Activate manually (we want to automate that too); same thing for "USBTool". Unfortunaltely, I don't know the set of parameters for the shortcuts.
Or try looking for some advanced shortcut creation tools for WinMo, like in this list

does this rooting solves wifi connection problem which was there before ???
i also have one question for you, now tattoo is rooted, can i transfer files & receive files through bluetooth ???? if yes which is the best software to do so ???

Bluetooth OBEX
Bluetooth OBEX probably doesn't work on 1.6 as there are dependencies issue.

What did you exactly do?
In tiwlan.ini did you change 0 to 1 for WiFiAdhoc?
In wpa_supplicant.conf you wrote
Code:
network={
ssid="Adhoc"
scan_ssid=1
key_mgmt=NONE
mode=1
}
Is it enough?

How to configure HTC and PC to use Adhoc wireless connection
Hi to everybody,
i'm trying to use the two files Marsdroid uploaded on the forum, i was able to upload them on the system/etc/wifi folder in my HTC Tattoo, but i can't anyway configure the Adhoc connection between PC and HTC.
Do i have to manually set up an open SSID named Adhoc with no security, both on the HTC and on the Windows XP PC?
Are there some configuration to be made to configure correctly the ad hoc connection? IP address etc...?
Thanks in advance for your help,
Andrea

[SOLVED] openvpn on DHD? tun.ko?

Has anyone managed to get openvpn going? compiling custom tun.ko file for DHD?

It's probably possible, now that we have the source. Don't have a DHD just yet, so can't try
Sent from my HDfied HTC Desire

Thread moved to General.

hello
i'm interesting too for the kernel mod tun.ko for the DHD

any reponse ?

Hello,
i'm very interesting in this file too...
My NAS awaits the phone "call".

Hey everyone. First time poster, so hoping its a happy reply
Has anyone had any luck with this ? i also require the tun.ko file for DHD. been searching the net for hours
looking forward to your replies.

I heard that tun.ko file has to be specifically compiled for each kernel version. Is that right?
Is it also linked to the radio version?
If we could have a link for kernel source, i might be able to follow tutorial and publish it here.
I have 2.6.32.21 -g66cfb7a kernel version and you? (not sure if the second part is part of the kernel version)
Lionel

Attached is tun.ko for the Desire HD (for kernel 2.6.32.21-gf3f553d). Built it today & it seems to insert OK and work fine with VPN Connections.

Yes. After trying other people's tun.ko modules, it wasn't until I checked the output of dmesg that I learnt this (got my first Android 3 weeks ago - so I'm still a n00b).

Lionel, it would appear that my Desire HD has the same kernel.
2.6.32.21-g66cfb7a
2.6.32 is the base kernel version
I assume 21 is the revision or build number.
The hex string on the end seems to vary by which ROM you have installed. This was what was stopping me from loading these other tun.ko modules - including the one posted by @thedji
I've just compiled the tun.ko module for 2.6.32.21-g66cfb7a (on a headless Pentium 2 400 MHz lol). It loads fine and can be seen in the output of lsmod. I've attached it below.
Edit: I was able to use this module successfully to connect to a Cisco VPN with vpnc.

@MikeMelbourne
Can you explain to me how and with what Software you connected to a Cisco VPN?

C.K. said:

First - applications.
1) You're going to need a terminal/console app. I used one called Terminal Emulator.
2) You're going to want an app called "VPN Connections". I downloaded a patched APK in post #4 here:
hxxp://code.google.com/p/get-a-robot-vpnc/issues/detail?id=122&q=patch
Alternatively, you might get it from here: hxxp://code.google.com/p/get-a-robot-vpnc/downloads/list (although YMMV).
Second - setup.
1) You're phone needs to be rooted.
2) You need to have the appropriate tun.ko module (for your phone's kernel) loaded. Load up the Terminal Emulator then:
a) Type 'su' without quotes and hit enter.
b) Type 'insmod /path/to/tun.ko' without quotes and press enter. If your tun.ko is on your sdcard in the root, the path would be /mnt/sdcard/tun.ko
c) If the step above worked, you should be able to type 'lsmod' and see the tun module loaded.
Note: I didn't have any luck running the "VPN Connections" app directly - the connection kept failing (possible due to the configuration of the VPN I was connecting to). So I start it from the command line. You might want to try using the GUI first as it would make things so much easier if it works.
Third - connecting to the VPN by a command line.
1) The command to enter is quite long (and I got sick of typing it), so I put it into a file called 2.sh in the root of the sdcard.
2) Inside the file /mnt/sdcard/2.sh, I entered the following:
Code:
/data/data/org.codeandroid.vpnc_frontend/files/vpnc --script /data/data/org.codeandroid.vpnc_frontend/files/vpnc-script --no-detach --natt-mode cisco-udp --debug 1 --gateway AAA.BBB.CCC.DDD --id groupid --username mike --enable-1des
Note that the gateway is the IP address of the VPN you are connecting to. The username for me is just my username - it isn't prefixed by my company's active directory domain.
3) Open the Terminal Emulator.
4) Enter 'su' without quotes and press enter.
5) Enter 'sh /mnt/sdcard/2.sh' without quotes and press enter.
6) You will be asked to provide the group password, then the personal password for your username. Then it should attempt to connect.
You can change the debug value to 2 or 99 if you want to get more information (if it doesn't connect successfully).
If you want to know what command line options are available, enter the following at the Terminal Emulator:
Code:
/data/data/org.codeandroid.vpnc_frontend/files/vpnc --script /data/data/org.codeandroid.vpnc_frontend/files/vpnc-script --long-help
I think that's it - I hope this helps. After disconnecting I tend to do a long reboot (takes 1-2 minutes) to get the network back to the way it was; although I'm not sure this is necessary.
Mike
Edit: seems like you need to create a directory and a symbolic link. This is my working script:
Code:
mkdir /dev/net
insmod /mnt/sdcard/download/tun.ko
lsmod
ln -s /dev/tun /dev/net/tun
/data/data/org.codeandroid.vpnc_frontend/files/vpnc --script /data/data/org.codeandroid.vpnc_frontend/files/vpnc-script --no-detach --natt-mode cisco-udp --debug 1 --gateway AAA.BBB.CCC.DDD --id groupid --username mike --enable-1des

Damn I hoped it woulld be easier. As I have never worked with Android that sounds like a challenge to me. So there is no easy switching on and off of the VPN connection? I always have to use the scripts?

Because the "VPN Connections" GUI app didn't connect for me, I had to resort to the script - you may not need to (depending upon the configuration of your Cisco VPN box).
I just need to run the final script (the 5 liner above) to connect to the VPN - good enough for the time being. You just need to modify the path to tun.ko, set your gateway server, groupid & username.
I hadn't worked with Android before the weekend just past - I've just rooted my first Android phone. It's all a learning experience - I guess it depends how badly you want VPN access? Hopefully it will get easier in time as the apps improve.
Good luck!
Mike

You can use something GScript to make it a two-click process (open app, click script). It's just as efficient as using VPN Connections (open app, click connect).
For me personally, I use VPN Connections to connect (successfully) but the traffic is routed down the wrong interface (i.e. not tun0).
After connecting I have to run
Code:
ip ru del table wifi
or
Code:
ip ru del table gprs
to fix the issue.
You should definitely try VPN Connections first. If that doesn't work, try the long method above.

GScript is a great idea - it will save me doing any typing to connect to the VPN.
Once I added these VPNC flags (--natt-mode cisco-udp --enable-1des) to "VPN Connections" I was able to successfully connect after running the script in GScript.
It doesn't say I'm connected, however my IP address has been assigned and I can Remote Desktop to my work PC. My routing already seems to be ok, so I don't to run the 'ip ru del' commands that you do.
I'm pretty satisfied with this now... no typing - just point and press.

[HowTo]Use OpenVPN in Cyanogenmod/based ROMs

Intro:
So, I've had some problems accessing the market from a forbidden country (i.e Sudan, Lebanon). When I tried to use the built-in VPN client in a Cyanogenmod ROM it turned out that it doesn't work so after a well-spent time, I figured out how to use a VPN on my HD2.
What Can it be used for?
- Access the internet using your data connection without revealing your IP address.
- Unlock the market for forbidden countries. (my case)
- Basically, VPN on your Androided HD2.
Requirements:
An HTC HD2 with a Cyanogenmod Rom or a ROM based on it.
OpenVPN Settings application (Provided in the attachments)
An OpenVPN config files and certificates (Recommended will be provided below)
An SD card.
Instructions:
1- I recommend using Hostizzle, go to it then register for a free plan. (go for a paid one if you want)
2- After registering, download your keys (only keys and not .exe ) and extract them to a new folder on the root of your sd card with the following name "openvpn" .
3- Go to your phone and install the "OpenVPN Settings" application (attached) .
4- Run the Application and Allow all the SuperUser Requests. Then press menu and choose "Advanced" . Make sure that "Load tun kernel module" is ticked, then hit "TUN module settings" and make sure that "Load module using" is set to "insmod" and "Path to tun module" is set to "/system/lib/modules/tun.ko" .
5-(optional) if you faced troubles using the internet, long press on your configurations name and then "Preferences" then tick "Use VPN DNS Server" and set the "VPN DNS Server" to "8.8.8.8".
6- Return to the main screen of the app and tick "OpenVPN" and then tick your configuration.
Then it will go through a sequence, when you see "Connected to *.*.*.* as *.*.*.*" then you're connected, if you're seeing a blank after "as" then you have a problem and you have to check the procedures again.
Tips & Warnings:
*You can use any OpenVPN service as long as you can obtain the configurations file.
*I have only tested this on "HyperDroid", but it should work with any cyanogenmod ROM.
*Do not install "OpenVPN installer" as it will mess up your phone's VPN configurations.
*OpenVPN Settings can be obtained from the market, but in my case I couldn't do it .
*The files you should copy to the "openvpn" folder should at least contain the following : (*.ovpn, ca.crt, client.crt, client.key, ta.key)
*It is ok for the connection to keep restarting, it will connect you soon.
*Anything else you tell me

[Guide] Reverse Tether (wifi method)(download anything) (Windows and Ubuntu users)

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

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.
