Has anyone got tethering working on Three UK? Been looking for some info for some time now but it seems ppl just get some sort of errors.
I've been searching for the same answer. I setup the tethering on my Omina 7 but can't connect as I don't have the three dial up number which all the guides seem to require.

Yea,,,, the same:'(
And you have tryed used the software that comes with 3? I have used my own operator here in Sweden and that works.
hey guys, came across your thread, 3 does not support tethering on their network as they are waiting for the offical windows software to come out to do it, which i am annoyed about as i got this phone on the basis it can tether. however if you still want the number it is *99# to dial to and u do not require a username or password (worked on my blackberry 9700), I am currently downloading the verizon vzaccess software as this supposidly allows the omnia to tether so I shall see what that comes back with
Still not able to connect using this... Anybody had better luck?
do you want to use usb-tethering or internet sharing (hotspot)?

This is for USB tethering.
Internet Sharing works perfectly, thankfully!

I know this seems almost pointless...But I have both the Diamond 2 on att, with an unlimited data plan, and the Droid Eris through a pre paid. I want to know if it is possible to use the "Wi-Fi Router" on the Diamond 2 to share internet with my Droid Eris?
Ive tried a few times, and I think it might have to do with the Diamond2 showing ps as IBSS ad hoc connection.
Is there another way? or is it even possible to begin with?
The reason is just so that if I run out of data on the prepaid, I can connect to the Diamond2 if i really need to if im not near a wifi spot.
I dunno if this helps but I tethered my xperia to my blackberry by using the blackberry as a "bluetooth modem". I'm not sure if theres such a setting in android (probably)
Take a look, see if it can be done without wifi
thanks, but im trying to connect through my Diamond 2 and unfortunately android doesnt ask me what services I want to use when they are paired.
Android does not connect to ad-hoc connections out of the box. You need to root your Eris. But as far as I can tell, no one has figured out to root it yet.
I'm trying the same thing...
But my setup is attempting to use internet sharing or the WMWiFi application to share internet to the bluetooth of a Samsung Propel Pro to the bluetooth of an older Samsung Blackjack with no sim card. Just to get the older BJ to see the internet, but I can't see to get Bluetooth PAN working on the setup.
Is this possible to do? What am I missing?
anyone got an idea. this would be a cool trick to do. Cheapest VOIP Cheapest VOIP calls
i know that if u can put both connection to ur pc from wifi with both or to wifi with on and usb with the other. in network connections u can "bridge" the connection
hello,
i would like to know if it is possibile to share my pc connection with my htc legend:
the problem is that in my room my laptop get the wifi but not the phone because it has a really really bad antenna, and i dont want to use 3g data, is it possibile to share my connection from pc to phone? it should act like a wifi repeater or something no idea thank you
A while ago I was looking for the same thing.
Although technically an easy task, it's not yet possible with Stock Android. There is a Google Code forum page confirming that Android as of yet can't see and connect to Ad-Hoc networks. There are some wifi-tools in the market that can at least show them, but none can't make your device connect yet.
Some ROMs seem to have added this option, if you plan to root and flash. I just added a cheapo router, problem solved. ;-)

Do you want to use your phone's internet for your pc? Then yes- it's possible with apps. (called tethering. search for wifi tether or usb tether in market or on xda...)
if you want to use your pc's connection - then probably not.

no i mean i donot have a wifi modem and i have adsl net modem and also with respect to battry problem in hd2 i prefer to use net with prob connection but many of builds did not have the internet pass through option
for this aim i like to know that is it posible to add this option to that kind of build as a for example apk software
I have the same issue,having the Internet Pass-Through function (which uses PC's connection on the phone) of Desire HD builds on the Desire builld would be great.
yap
its easy you can use your pc's wifi and turn it into a access point
and then using it trough the wifi
can't be easier than this
see,you left out the most important part: problem is that not all of the pc's have wifi!!!
There is also USB tethering, although you'll have to check if there's any builds with it working.
I don't bother with it as I use wifi tethering instead.
The program Connectify is working pretty good, to use my netbooks LAN connection as access point. Always use it abroad when in hotels without wifi and only wired internet. Works only with windows7 though.

I really feel the need to help the OP here. I don't have an answer to his question, but I do understand what he's asking for, and other people seem to be answering different things!!!
He want's to use a USB cable (not wifi) to allow his phone to use his PC's internet connection.
Tethering is irrelevant (that's using the phone's internet connection on the PC) and he does not have a wireless router so cannot use wifi on his phone.
In response to the OP, the only thing I've ever seen as a conclusive answer is that this cannot be done (there is no software that currently does it). That was an answer on a website from about 7 months ago though, and I am aware of the option on the Desire HD, so there is obviously a way to do it now.
I hope you find what you're looking for

IN the revolution HD 2.2 mdeejay NAND version - you have this option built in in this rom !!!
i used it - its working.
USB tethering is part of the Froyo OS. The problems you may have are that it does not work correctly with a lot of builds. Most of the HTC builds tend to work though.
Hmmm.... I also have the same problem.
I don't want to use the 3G Data connection for internet because it's expensive so it would be really useful to get internet through usb from a computer.
So far I only saw this option on M-Deejay's Revolution HD rom and for me it was kind of a heavy build. Worked kinda slow so I flashed a different rom which doesn't have the usb internet pass through.
I also tried Connectify. My phone connected to the computer's wireless but the internet didn't work. I tried disabling my firewall, opening ports, and other things but it just doesn't work. I think it has to do with the software not supporting all WiFi cards.
So now I'm having trouble getting on the internet with my phone to download apps. I have to go outside and look for some WiFi networks to do it and that kinda sucks
I think it finally works! I installed the latest Connectify beta version from here:
http://connectify.blogspot.com/2010/11/connectify-211-beta-up-for-testing.html
And it kinda works now! I think it's just a bit slow.

I use CM_InternetSharing app on my WM mobile phone to create a hot spot. The software works great and all my Windows pc's & my brothers iPad find my cell phone and gain a internet connect but the Elocity A7 does not connect. The Elocity A7 does connect to my home network but it does not find the mobile hot spot.
Note: WiFi Analyzer finds my WM phone but I can't connect - So I guess it has to do something with the WEP encryption between WM & Andriod in obtaining a IP.
My elocity is on build 0127.
Any ideas?
I have to install the adhoc-fix.zip by dexter on to see my hotspot I have a hotspot on my virgin mobile phone . do a search here on the forum for adhoc-fix.zip and it will give you the link. You rename it to update.zip and install like the mods on the a7 but you do not have to clear stuff.

I found the adhoc-fix.zip. Did you apply this using recovery? Ie. rename to update.zip.
I also seen that someone mention to execute a chmod on a file. Do you know how to get keyboard in command prompt mode?

Well I applied the adhoc-fix.zip. It got me closer. I can see my phone broadcasting SID XDA-Wifi-Sharing but it won't obtain a IP address. -- Thanks. I'll keep looking

I run the barnicle legacy on my phone to make my hot spot. I have a virgin mobile samsung intercept.
I believe barnicle is for Andriod -- so you are communicating Andriod to Android. My phone is Windows Mobile running XDA CM Internet Sharing. My A7 will not connect to my phone while other PCs (windows) in my home can connect to my phone.
Im in the same boat and I cant get the darn thing to connect when to the XDA-wifi-sharing (adhoc) network on my wm touch pro 2. I wish someone could solve this. I used to be able to dual boot my phone into android 2.2 (rooted) system and set up the hot spot on that and it would connect but that doesnt even work now for A7. I wish someone who really knows this stuff would give it some attention. Ive looked everywhere I find a search query. This is especially annoying since I cant switch to a different phone for at least another six months and I use the phone to get remote access to the internet for all my hardware.
I've got a work around if you are up to it. I starting thinking about a previous user using barnicle. So I ported Andriod to my WM6.5 TP2 CMDA http://sites.google.com/site/androidport/downloads. I launched Andriod from my WM and went to Android Market place and downloaded barnicle. Lauched barnicle and connected my A7. It works. I just have to remember to boot into Andriod when I want to tether.

Is there another place to get the adhoc-fix.zip? I have tried pulling it down but without any luck.
Glad to see you keeping this alive. I did the same thing except the android rom i installed on tp2 had a wifi hotspot feature built into the wireless settings. Its a pain going back and forth though and i find wm is way more stable. I saw someone mention wifi encryption ane cmod on a file. I dont know much about these and how to fiddle with it but im gonna keep searchin.

Ninetoes49 was nice enough to povide a link to the adhoc-fix.zip file at the following site:
http://www.4shared.com/file/dHDOwV-T/adhoc-fix.html
After installing,, my A7 saw the barnicle SSID. I haven't used WPA yet but at least the wifi link is working.
I have windows mobile phone and barnicle is for android. From reading alot, i guess froyo (android 2.2) has problems with WEP connections. The tethering program i use on windows mobile, xda wifi-sharing, uses wep encryption only. Im wondering if something can be changed within the code to make it open like it is in android tethering program which works fine. I would keep using android on windows mobile phone except has no bluetooth functionality and its freezes up a lot. By the way, ive noticed problems with the a7 dropped from home wep networks ive been on too.

I wish I could help more but I am not familiar with Windows Mobile products.
I have been wondering if I should even fool with encryption on my mobile setup. I figure no one can jump on if its not running. I only use it occassionaly. Is it possible that enough people in a given area could "clog" the connection if I don't limit access with encryption?
wep
I'm assuming you have a key assigned in the WEP setup. Basically WEP is not secure since there are tools readily available to crack the key you use in less than 10min. If you don't broadcast the ssid that would make it more difficult since most people would not see the network readily. You would have to try that to see if you can access with an ssid that is not being broadcast. Some systems have a problem connecting to wireless networks that aren't broadcasting the ssid.
I am connecting to my home net using WPA/WPA2 with no problem. I have not connected to a tethering capability.

I have a TP2 (Sprint) and had the same issues as you do. I was using the XDA wifi sharing app but have found an older version of wmwifirouter that works and doesn't require a wep.
There is one caveat though. Using the app has broke my internet sharing one time causing me to have to clear storage. So, if you check the net for wmwifirouter 0.91 and use that, you should be able to connect after the adhoc fix is flashed on your a7.

Thanks Marbieskarb -- for the older version tip of wimwifirouter 0.91 http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=152502&d=1233460803 It worked for me too but after I applied the adhoc fix discuss earlier in this thread. So, now I do not have to dual boot my TP2 to Andriod just to use a tethering app. Great. I'm running wimwifirouter on TP 2 WM6.5.

Has anyone got Mobile Hotspot to work on their MS2 after the upgrade to Gingerbread?
I've been having problems - Tte MS2 properly assigns an IP address to PCs that try to connect to it over WiFi, but the connection doesn't seem to go past my MS2 to the Internet. Same thing whether USB or WiFi.
I'm on T-mobile on the USA - could that have something to do with it, some kind of authentication is being performed now (that wasn't being performed on Froyo?)
I had this problem too.
Now I use the app "barnacle wifi tether" and it works fine.

Thanks for the suggestion. If I root my phone I'll consider that option. Has anyone found any other fixes? I tried playing with the APN settings as suggested by some online, but it doesn't seem to help.

Usb sharing is f*d up - dnsmasq does not launches properly and phone gives no IP in response to dhcp req from pc. I don't remember, if setting an IP and gw manually solves the problem.
However launching _both_ sharing method at once helped. DHCP worked fine. Maybe launching wifi hotspot alone generates similar problem?
Did a factory reset and now Mobile Hotspot works!
Haven't tried USB tethering yet, will report back when I do.
Great! I also had this problem and this tip helped me.
Mobile Hotspot works but haven't got USB tethering to work properly yet. The computer can get an IP address from the phone, but no connection through to the Internet. This is after the factory reset.
Same with me here.. Already did FR but still no go..
Old thread I know but anyone sorted this yet, as its doing my head in, I even changed to a tethering plan in case i was being blocked.
Barnacle Tether doesn't work either same symptoms also says DHCP:Could not bind to DHCP port Address already in use

Could it be your carrier blocking 3G tethering?
Hi
3G tethering is not blocked by carrier as I am on a tethering plan and have spent a long time on the phone to an Indian call centre to sort it.
But joy of joys after trying everything I could think of including re-flashing and wiping all data etc. I have managed to get it working using wifi tether for root user
