[Q] USB 3G for Iconia A500 - Acer Iconia A500

How can we connect 3/4G via Sony Ericsson X2? I heart that tethering technology is connect from others support 3G/4G on A500 but I do not know how it work?
I need 3G connect for more convenience on the traveling. Who can tell any usb 3g can work on Android Honeycomb devices in common and A500 specify?
Thanks

Did you do a search on this topic? Try the post in the "Dev" section on this very subject, whilst not SONY specific, it's partially working for "some" USB 3G dongles on root'd devices.

Tethering my A101 to my Touch HD

I seem to be having problems tethering my A101 to my HTC Touch HD.
Bluetooth seems hit and miss. Any suggestions on correct procedure.
I also have a little app on my phone for establishing it as a wifi router. The app is wmwifirouter. While my lap top see's it fine the A101 just doesnt see it. Anyone managed to ge their A101 to tether to a wifi type connection their WM phone?
i'm having problem with it as well ... the A101 to my SE x10i ... the bluetooth can "see" the mobile but when it cannot pair ... this is plain stupid!!
i've tried to contact the Archos Support but no solutions as yet.
I tether my HTC Evo to my Archos 70 IT with zero issues. My Evo is rooted and I run the "Wireless Tether" app in the market (their website). It starts an ad-hoc WiFi access point that the tablet can connect to. I've never had any issues. The app supposedly works over bluetooth as well but I've never tried it.
I'm in the exact same boat as you airnike, except the issue is tether to my BlackBerry Bold 9780. I found a thread (listed below) that seems to offer me the possibility of getting my connection up and running - since it seems that it was a problem in the Archos firmware in the first place, maybe you can solve it by following the thread.
Because I am so new I cannot just post the URL, so here it is in a conveluted fashion.
h t t p ://forum.archosfans.com/viewtopic.php?f=63&t=46116
Stock Archos devices don't support ad-hoc networking, only infrastructure. Wireless Tether from the market supports ad-hoc and infrastructure mode. Some phones support infrastructure mode and some do not. If your phone does, you are lucky and it may work. There is a list of supported devices on the Wireless Tether website. There are also several threads on here about tethering and ad-hoc networking.
Tethering Blackberry is another problem, I think I read somewhere it was resolved now, but you need to type in a script in terminal.
Tethering Windows Mobile should be very easy. I always tether bluetooth from my Samsung i8000 to my 101. I never used wifi though as I reckon bluetooth is more battery friendly and speed is acceptable. What exactly is your tethering problem? what do you mean hit or miss? I've been consistently able to tether via bluetooth on my WM phone.
I have had some trouble tethering my Touch HD to my "101" as well - but finally this seems solved.
After pairing both devices, I found that I need to activate Bluetooth on both, then establish internet connection on the "HD" - and after that my "101" will tether fine.
The only strange thing I am a little unhappy with, is the fact that the tethering seems to break down when I turn off the screen of the mobile. When it switches off by itself, the connection appears to be stable.
i have a htc ozone wm phone how did u connect to your a101
What are the pro and cons of tethering via Bluetooth? I have Wi-Fi hotspot on my phone, and it worked perfectly right away. Could the Bluetooth use less battery?

This thread went a bit off topic eh?
Pete, did you ever get this working? I have a A101 16GB and a Touch HD. They tethered via bluetooth off the bat for me.
Running:
A101 16GB - UrukDrod 0.7
Touch HD - EnergyRom
If you want me to post steps, let me know.
Hello.
I'm having trouble tethering an Asus Transformer (stock) to my Touch HD (also stock).
I can pair them but they don't connect.
Tried the establish data connection/turn BT on/tether suggestion but no luck.
Any suggestions?
Cheers,
E

No clue. Wouldn't they know more in the Asus Transformer forums?

[Q] USB to ethernet tether?

Hi Guys,
Saw a few posts on this but not relating directly to the Xoom.
Rather than buy a wireless router can I tether the Xoom to my computer and share the internet connection?
I'm assuming the Xoom would need a driver to speak with W7 and probably wouldn't come with one... is it possible?
Cheers
Hmm...well, this is untested, but you could most likely just do something like this: http://www.metacafe.com/watch/1842810/free_internet_on_your_phone_via_bluetooth_your_pc_broadband/
Thanks very much, I'll give it a go when the Xoom eventually comes to Aus.

Tethering to Android Tablet

Has anyone here tethered their Sammy to an Android tablet? My google searches have come up snake-eyes.
Specifically I am looking at picking up the ASUS Transformer and it is WiFi only.
Thanks
Wonderin the same thing since im also on the hunt for a tf101 if the usb tether with the keyboard would work
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
None of you own a tablet??
The only way to tether those Android tablets is using Wi-Fi HotSpot feature. WP7 currently doesn't support wi-fi hotspot feature.
There is another tethering feature that can be hacked to support on a Focus but that's pretty much limited to dial-up modem type connections and I'm pretty sure Android tablet does not support such DUN type tethering through USB.

I was afraid of that I do use the hack to tether to my laptop using a dial up connection and it works great. Hoping maybe I could use bluetooth to tether with the tablet.
I appreciate the info.
Cheers!
Well... my persistence paid off
Simply refusing to cave to Rogers and spend more on my current plan, or buy another data stick, I tried a few different products and eventually solved my own problem.
Purchased the Aluratek 3G Portable Wireless USB Cellular Router, directly connected my Samsung Focus and popped in the APN settings provided by Aluratek support and BOOM... 3G Hotspot heaven.
The router is very compact and has a rechargeable battery. Packs very nicely in my Targus Netbook bag with the other accessories. Very cool!

Looks good. Where did you pick up the Aluratek in Toronto?

My wife and I are among the early adaptor for WP7. We've waiting for a way to tether since day 1. It's been 7 months, I think we need to move on. We are thinking, instead of getting 2 more phones, maybe we can hack our Focus into Android phones. Is there a project going on?
I just bought the lenovo s10-3t netbook with a touchsceen (windows 7). Ive seen on youtube and done some reading about it being hacked to run android... It'd be awesome if I could just tether the focus to it like I do in windows 7 although as there arent drivers for our phone for windows I dont see how thats possible correct?

[Q] optimus 7 as a wireless (wifi) adapter?

How can i use my wifi enabled mobile phone as wireless adapter for pc,for accessing internet on a desktop pc via usb(by not using mobile's 3g)?
I don't mean the usb tethering prosedure. If anybody knows. I have an old desktop pc without wireless adapter. I know that i could use a cheap wifi usb stick. I just want to know if this is possible.
While I know you can share the 3g connection with your phone, and you use to be able to use the computers wifi connection on the phone.... I don't think you could share the wifi connection with your computer. You can however, picked up a used usb one for a few dollars and a new one from newegg.com for $15.
While there may be a way to do it, .... you're asking a $300 phone to do the job of a simple adapter.

The currently available tethering on WP7 only shares your cellular data connection over WiFi.
There are indications that it might also be possible to share you're cellular data connection over e.g. USB, but I don't think that's been possible (even on unlocked devices) thus far.

a simple adapter (usb modem with a sim card) also does the job that usb tethering offers on optimus 7.
Thank you all for your answers. But i already know what are the currently available tethering (usb and with recently released firmware update internet sharing -cellular data- via wifi on wp7). I just asked if is possible to share phone's Wi-Fi connection to a pc (missing wifi adapter) via USB on wp7. That's all. If anybody knows please reply.

Well like I said, at the moment the only thing that works is Cellular -> WiFi.
WiFi -> USB might work after some registry changes but as far as I know nobody managed to this until now.

[Q] 3g Dongle for the Nexus 7

Does anyone use one? Any ideas what one to use? Any suggestions?
Don't answer all at once!
Something like this will do. It broadcasts as WiFi so your Nexus will see it yet in essence it's a 3G dongle. Not sure about the price plans or whats available in your country of choice but thought I'd show you whats available.

can i use my huwavi ui53 3g dongle with google nexus 7 tab to connect internet?
hi
can i use my huwavi ui53 3g dongle with google nexus 7 tab to connect internet?
becoz i'm planning to buy this tab..but my area has not wifi...
pls help me...
One could get a MiFi router, where it's basically a 3G/4G dongle with WiFi capabilities in-box. Or get a WiFi 3G Router that is an adapter for existing 3G/4G dongles, like this:
http://usb3gvn.com/router-wifi-3g/tp-link-tl-wr703n.html
750k VND = 36.50 CAD/[moreorless] USD
I'm also interested to know if Android's USB host could support an internet stick...

I tether from my phone. I would imaging those Clear wireless internet hotspot devices would do the job as well.
