[Q] tethering on Mango - Omnia 7 General

Sooo, Mango's here and Im creaming my pants over it.. Brilliant.. But, my Orange provider didnt want to include tethering as it was optional.. Anybody knows a way to enable it? Is a new ROM a must and is there one available yet?

, some regular dont't support it .

Even if they would want you to have it enabled, there are two factors:
1. The hardware supporting WiFi AP mode - as MS uses AP mode (to have more clients) rather AdHoc (that supports every chipset) - AP mode ISN'T supported by all WP7 phones! I will check drivers to see what chipset does O7 use.
2. DRIVERS! If the hardware supports it, Sammy will deliver drivers hopefuly.

Yeah, just read some news its up to the chipset and drivers. Will be there in the next updare.. But, older phones might not be getting tethering at all! Lame.. oh well, its time to get a dongle and mend it into my asus tranzformer lol

but at least the USB tethering is working

I'd like that too

does the optimus 7 support AP mode? (infrastructure! NOT ad-hoc!)

USB tethering is done via Diagnostic tool, where you switch from Zune Sync mode to USB Tethering mode and do some playing on PC with it.
And WiFi hotspot is done via few registry edits, check out WP7 dev forums . Omnia7 and Focus have got it working!

Try this click on the keypad and dial ##634# , then dial *#7284#, select Modem, Tethered Call, click Ok your phone should restart, plug the phone into PC, go to control panel -> system -> hardware -> device manager, click on modems, you should see (samsung mobile modem) or something of the same, right click it and click properties, click advanced, add this code (+cgdcont=1,"ip","internet") as is, click ok, now set up a new connection,Control Panel -> Network and Sharing Center (or Network Connection) -> Change your network settings -> Set up a new connection or network,Set up a dail-up connection -> next, select SAMSUNG Mobile Modem (this modem could be name difference),enter *99# as Dail-up phone number, and leave username and password blank and click connect, good luck

I don't get this? You want WIFI Tether???
It has already been done and confirmed on Omnia 7 and HD7 as far as I know... works just great on my Omnia 7.
Thanks to these guys.

Mr. kardes4 you didn't get the Mr. neo1691's point.
He want to access the Internet of his PC/laptop into his Galaxy without using Wifi
And this mobile ap let's to share the Internet of our Galaxy's "Internet" over PC/Laptop. and he want Vice-Versa.
Mr. neo1691 want the app that make the USB of Galaxy turn into the LAN kind of wire. And if we plug in the USB into our Galaxy, the PC/Laptop's internet starts working on the PHONE.
Right Mr. neo1691.

You got my point Mr madhuranand007... Thats exactly wat i want to know... there should be a way fo doing that...?
It can be done with changing a wifi card to Access Point mode, but you don't have any, right?
Through USB... hmm, you will need an USB Host option, but our CPU doesn't support that.
BT it can work, but I don't see any post to proove that. I know it can be done at SE P990. If you're an programmer, write app for that

Hi evry1 ...
m using Samsung Galaxy 3 5801..
if it is possible to access internet through my pc/laptop pls tell me step by step procedure to do so..
Thanks in advance
Till date what i found via all forums that its not possible to share Internet via USB to Android..
looking forward for any positive response from senior member's...
Hey guys... i just stumbled upon some article in the newspaper that u can use ur laptop as a wifi router to share internet connection with your mobile devices..!!!!!
is it possible guys..!!!!
i am keepin my fingers crossed
Yes you can do that but not via USB.
what you need:
1. a laptop or pc with wifi adapter.
2. win 7. (this is not for vista and XP)
3. a tool like "Connectify" that is free.
this is very simple, just follow the instructions from "Connectify".
Good luck

Well, as far as I know there is no software to do it for you.
But still you have an option, you must set up an "ad hoc" network connection.
this will share Internet over your wifi or wireless LAN adapter.
Its not hard to do that just Google the "ad hoc" for instruction.

Connectify is working with win 7!
probably your problem is from the wifi setting of the cell phone.
For the other software (I'm not sure) but you can try virtual router.
and ... Internet from USB? I don't think it's possible yet because we need an enabled USB Host mode phone.
I think some people are working on that but it's still way to go.

Yes I have the same issues, but he is working on another build right now. I am sure they are working hard.
You do not need a app for this. Go to Settings<Wireless & Networks<Tethering &portable hotspot<and then select USB tethering or Portable WI-FI hotspot.
I use this ROM and I use the Portable WI-Fi hotspot like all the time.

In that case then I think you either don't have the correct drivers for your HD2 to connect in this way which is a easy fix. Just go to control panel while you have your HD2 connected via USB and with the Tethering on. Then go to device manager and find your HD2 there, you will know it when you see it, then click on it. This will make it drop down then right click on the dropped down device icon and select update drivers and then get from internet.
If this is not the problem open ActiveSynce or WMDC on your computer and uncheck allow USB connections and see if that helps.
For me, it works with my iphone but not working with my Mac Book.
I had the same issue, just yesterday I found a fix the WiFi tether app(wifi tether 3.0-pre11.apk) the older WiFi tether apk files did not work correctly. The on-board WiFi works great. You will know when you get the right file, the icon color changed from green to yellow. I have been testing this out for about an hour now and all is good...
Also I can receive e-mails when I am tethering via the on-board WiFi or tethering app, but I can not send them. Does anybody know why this is. This is the same with all ROMS, so nothing to with the ROM (which is great) ...Any ideas on how to fix this settings issue...Thanks

[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] verizon htc trophy----help

Will any of these custom ROMs work on the Verizon HTC Trophy? Also is there anyway possible of getting the phone to tether via bluetooth or usb?
There are a lot of custom roms that work on the Verizon HTC Trophy, like XevRev. I don't think tethering via Bluetooth or USB is possible right now, but Wifi tethering should be good enough

Tethering works over WiFi now with the latest mango update. If you are on verizon and don't have a tethering plan you can do the following:
ALL VERIZON USERS WITHOUT OFFICIAL TETHERING PLAN MUST DO THE FOLLOWING!!
After programming the phone via *228, dial ##PST# on the dial pad. After service tools install/load, select PST=>edit=>type in unlock code: 000000, Select M.IP Default Profile, select DUN NAI, change value to from ##########@dun.vzw3g.com to ##########@vzw3g.com (the # signs represent your phone number that should remain!) and select ok, select save and reboot phone.

ansar makes his own rom that has usb tethering (his standalone xap has long disappeared), but i've only had luck with the XevRev beta.
Bluetooth seems out of the way at the moment, it has been brought up in past discussions, but looking at the other apps on there to transfer files (a feature that should have shipped with the first version) and the ability to transfer contacts via bluetooth, means that the base bluetooth protocol has been laid out. Someone would have to write a driver to wrap the internet copnnection out through a com port that I have no idea if that has been accomplished.

How to tethering DVP?

Well I'm sorry to say, if tethering was very important to you, you probably should have gotten a different phone. There is no way to do wifi "internet sharing." There is a way to do wired tethering, but it involves installing a special modded HTC driver for USB connection and setting up a dialer connection on each machine you use it on.
I have the 64bit driver and a few instructional notes in a zip file on my skydrive:
http://sdrv.ms/OYxLMP
This was my source for most of the info:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=929468
You may be able to get the 32bit driver there if you need it.
I believe all HTC & Samsung WP7.5+ handsets have wifi internet sharing. Most Nokia handsets have it too, if they've received all their updates.
DVP has no hardware support for wireless hotspot, sorry
Now that I test it, I don't think the wired tethering hack works after the Tango update. I always needed to turn off "data connection" but leave "3g data" active in order to get it to work, but after the tango update, those two settings are no longer separate. Maybe I'm mistaken, but I couldn't get it to work.
