wpa_supplicant from 3.1 - Acer Iconia A500

Doh.
Somehow managed to delete the stock 3.1 wpa_supplicant, so now I have no wifi.
Could someone please provide a copy from their oh-so-fresh 3.1 please.
Thanks. I feel dumb...

/system/bin/
Thanks so much!

Whew! I got it working.
I grabbed the file from one of the posted update.zip files, and once I figured out I had to give it execute perms (duh), it works.

Awesome

I am having the exact same problem. I deleted it from /system/bin/. Im at a lost and not sure what i need to do at this point to get the wi-fi back working on my A500. Any help with a step by step process on getting this fixed will be greatly appreciated? Thanks in advance.

I load the zip file in recovery mode? Everytime i try to transfer the file to my tablet from my desktop I get the following error "cannot copy item - the device has either stopped responding or has been disconnected".But when i try to transfer any other zip file, it does it with no problem. HELP!

Re-install AccountAndSyncSettings.apk

I accidentally deleted the AccountAndSyncSettings.apk file. Does anyone have a backup of the file? Please help. Thanks in advance.
Snag it from a stock .zip rom in the development section. Just extract and find it (Same data structure as your filesystem).
i am also having the same issue. I have already found the stock rom from and moved the apk file with root explorer, but it won't allow me to install. Any input on how you solve this would be great.
Sorry for reviving the thread. Could someone post the AccountAndSyncSettings.apk and odex for the stock rom. I tried downloading the stock rom file but couldn't find the files that I need. Thanks so much!
Use the search feature, I posted this link for a pretty long period now.
http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?r1mrbtsep2k84kb
This includes AccountAndSync.apk/odex so remove that if you don't want it.
Thanks so much, I put the files back and it's fixed now. You're a life saver!
Menu
Did you get Accounts and Sync option back on your menu list under Settings? I have accountandsyncsettings.apk under the System/app folder but there is still no menu option.

Hi, could you explain how exactly you managed to re-install the .apk, because I already replace it, rebooted and tried installing it manually, but it wont install or show up in the list of applications under settings, and I'm trying to update OTA to gingerbread and it keeps saying that "AccountandSyncSettings.apk was not found". I would really appreciate your help.

Can someone post 1.5.7 stock webtop files including the .odex files?

The backup files in my thread is stock version of webtop file.i think the OP is requesting the original webtop file of v.4.1.57 otherwise it cannot be updated to 1.83.
can anyone help on that?
Actually,my script has the backup sentence,but i delected 2 files by accident.
I backed these up from my atrix when I first got it.
I used them to revert from the webtop mod back to stock before updating to 1.57. I'm not sure if they're any different than the stock ones that come with 1.57.
Files included in the webtop_original.zip
DockProvider.apk
DockProvider.odex
DockService.apk
DockService.odex
PortalApp.apk
PortalApp.odex
I hope this helps.

Thank you very much.but as your mentioned,it's the stock v.4.1.26 6 files which are different from v4.1.57 webtop file.
In order to update to 4.1.83,we have to return the webtop files to v4.1.57 6 files.
Just looked and I do have the 4.1.57 .odex files but I think I deleted the .apk's. If someone want's them to try with the update just let me know and I'll upload em.

Also, don't factory reset your phone. Not only does it do nothing but you loose all your information to boot. Learned that the hard way

[Q] Adhoc wpa_suplicant file for 3.1

Just updated to 3.1 (only had to put my old wpa_suplicant file back, didnt have to unroot), tried the adhoc enabled wpa_suplicant from 3.0 but wifi wouldnt turn on. has anyone got adhoc working yet with 3.1?
Thanks

i used the exact same file i used in 3.0 (i never deleted either file during update, just renamed files to wpa_suplicantold and wpa_suplicantnew as needed). I check and did see the permissions were different between the 3.1 file and the old adhoc file, so i set the adhoc version to the same permissions (rwxr-xr-x) and bingo!!!
thanks for the help.
Im having the same problem & figured that was the cause, except I cannot find my old WPA-supplicant file, cant install 3.1, can someone please supply me with a copy of the old WPA-supplicant file! many thanks
here is my old wpa file

Just tried it and it worked for me too. Just looking at file sizes, it seems the wpa_supplicant file did not change in 3.1
placed in the copy of the original WPA-supplicant file, took out the current modified one, tried to install without success... that WPA file you uploaded doesnt have a file size, displaying 0 KB, while the old one had 289.03 KB, problem with the original WPA_supplicant file?

my bad, used a bad thumbdrive to transfer, retrasfered via direct usb, updated original post.
now my Wi-Fi states ERROR when installing that copy of WPA_Supplicant file. put in old (ad hoc friendly) file & still getting an ERROR. thinking I should have turned off wifi. any fix to this?
FIX:
had to select the WPA_Supplicant file, hit permissions, check/tick all the boxes in the first two columns and the first 2 in the last column.
Got it working! woohoo!
now to see if 3.1 will install...
3.1 Failed to install... WTF!
that was the only change I made to my tab.
could it be because its not my tab's original WPA_supplicant file?
anyway to bypass this to get 3.1 installed?

Solution posted by Bob here:

Here's the WPA_Supplicant from my A500, after the 3.1 update. Hope this works for you guys.
I'm not sure what the extension is for the A500, but I had to add .zip to be able to upload it. Try removing the .zip before using it. Also, remove the 'original'. I added that to keep it straight on my tablet.
Good Luck.

YESSSSSSSSSSSSS...my iPhone 3GS ( jailbreaked, iOs 4.3.3 with MyWi software installed from Cyidia to make WIFI spot on 3gs ) it's again useful like hot-spot for my tablet.
Thanks man, that work perfectly for me and my honeycomb 3.1 on ACER Iconia.
ciao e grazie from Italy
maybe someone here can help me. I've been trying to get adhoc tethering on my new iconia without any success. I rooted the iconia, downloaded the wpa_supplicant file, moved the one from the 3.1 to the sd card, place the new one on the system/bin n changed the permissions to chmod 755 n I tried 775 as well. Rebooted the iconia n turned on the wifi again n all I get is wifi error. I am running 3.1 n I have tried multiple different wpa_supplicant files yet I still can't get it to work. I'm so frustrated, if anyone has any answers please help n thank u.
that happened to me once, putting it into flight mode, the turn on wifi, if you get he same error put back the original and start again.
I can confirm that this works on my 3.1 Honeycomb, tethered with my rooted Droid. Thanks!
worked on iconia a500 3.1
For me the same wpa_supplicant as provided for xoom worked. Works with Joikuspot on Nokia.
Does anyone know if any of these files work with 3.2? Im currently running 3.2 and wanted to get the ad-hoc working
Yay.. Thanks for this. I just got an Epic 4G Touch. Rooted it and installed wifi tether, but it only does adhoc. This file worked great!

Wif-Fi=Error= no 3.1.. help! :(

so I had replaced the original WPA-suplicant file so I could connect to ad hoc networks. Had lost the original WPA file. someone posted up a copy of the original. uploaded to tab. replaced the old (Ad hoc friendly) with "original", now my Wi-Fi states ERROR, rebooted PC, same, put in the other WPA-supplicant file I had originally, still getting the same ERROR on Wi-Fi. any suggestions? something tells me I was suppose to disabled wifi before I did that, forgot.. chit..
FIX:
had to hold on the WPA_SUPPLICANT file and select view permissions
check/tick all the boxes in the first two columns and the first 2 in the last column.
Wifi is back ON! (THANK GOODNESS!!)
now to see if 3.1 installs.. wish me luck!
Nope. 3.1 failed to install... OMG!!! >,<
So I dont have my original WPA_Supplicant file.
Someone on another thread posted up theyre original WPA_Supplicant file.
I replaced the old one with his original one.
I did not make any other changes to my tab when I had root.
What could be the problem? anyway to bypass this & get 3.1 installed?
I did similar and it completely f*cked me up.
I factory reset and now my wifi just scans with out anything coming up. UGH.

did you change the permissions on the file after copying that on /system/bin?
with gingerbreak.apk, you have to root ur device.(download and install gingerbeak.apk!! is available here in forum)
Then i used "es file explorer" (file explorer with root permissions) from the market. In the settings of the program, go to the root options and check the available two boxes before you copy the file in the system directory.
After copying the file, change the permissions as follow:
you have to check all the boxes for the first 2 columns and the first 2 for the last column; so at the end you should have: rwxrwxrw-
After that, go again on the settings of the program,
1. uncheck the two boxes,
2. go to installed gingerbreak app and unroot your device.. --> device will restart
after the restart go to the system from settings of the device and check if an update is available to your device and download it.. then install
it will work.
Good Luck

Ahh yes, that's it. I remember that originally, but I couldn't remember what the permissions settings were for and that was it!

I tried installing some generic livewalpaperpicker.apk found somewhere on the xda and obviously it didnt work. Also is there a way to download the zip from your google drive, because for some unknown reason my phone wants to add it as a dictionary? (If no solution i'll just download it via pc). I will be fullheartedly thankfull for instructions.

I'm not sure why it's giving you a hard time downloading the zip. Are you using the Google Drive app or Chrome from your phone?
Extract the zip and copy the folder to /system/app/ using a root file manager. I should ask though, is your system stock? What version/build number? This includes the stock .apk and .odex file.

It's a rooted, stock 6.0.1 rom, with xposed framework and a bunch of modules including N-ify, If i am correct of what a build is then my build is "24.221.5.clark_reteu.en.EU reteu".
Edit:
I tried to do everything as instructed and it didn't help. And what is curious i found out that i actually already had this folder in my system/apps. I switched it with the new one, reboot and unfortunately still when i try to set any live walpaper it says "aplication is not installed". I guess i won't be able to try pixelwalpapers anytime soon.
