Wifi adhoc support - Xperia Arc General

I dont think that I'm the only one who thinks that someone should mod the wpa_supplicant.conf script to make the adhoc wifi possible via main wifi setting
What do you say

You are not the only one.
BTW, CM 7.1 supports ad-hoc.

ya, i tried CM7, but it lacks the SE's cool features..
i am so shocked that even SE didnt saw that its an "issue"

As this relates to the Neo, please continue all further discussion here.

[Q] Evo deck

Having issues with wifi and tethering?
What ive noticed on the native tethering app in CM7 or Decks, you need to load a webpage or use data on your phone for it to route an IP address for the connected devices. Ive noticed on the Wireless Tether app, it works instantly. Though, using the native method you most often have to do what I stated above.
So you couldn't post this in the deck development thread. How do we expect people to be able to fix their phones when they don't post in the proper sections.

He can't post in that forum due to the same reason I can't. Not enough posts. I've been using Deck's rom for awhile now and have had my own issues but can't post on that forum until I have at least 10 posts.
Just try the new CM7 nightly, its Android 2.3.5 and everything is working great, even GPS lol

Ive been using Decks roms since Alpha but CM7 has been updating quicker and Decks is only a slimmed down version of Cm7... No matter what anyone says
Use the built in tethering. In setting/wireless/tethering. Works perfect.
The wifi tethering app will work for some things and not others. I also use the built in one.
I keep getting "error" with built
wifi garden:
activating wifi interface...failed
setting ad-hoc mode...failed
setting essid...failed
setting channel...failed
enabling NAT rules...done
enabling IP forwarding...done
tethering now running...done
....that's my show log

Also make a folder on the root of your sd card if you dont have it name it "android.tether" and place this file in it

My AOSP tethering experiences FWIW
I am running a similar AOSP GB ROM (OMGB 1.2, 2.3.4 build) and while the tethering works, I am experiencing the following:
Using native tethering it creates an infrastructure network, although it takes a while to establish connection as a previous poster pointed out.
Using Wireless Tether 2.0.7, it connects instantly, but it is an ad hoc network.

No ROMs which can support Wireless Tether?!!

Hi folks,
I have tried a few of ROMs in this forum, but none of them support the Wireless Tether software.
I found that Enabling NAT rules - failed.
Now I'd like to get a ROM which can support Wireless Tether and it's better to be Android 2.3.5 but not compulsory.
I am waiting on line for your replies.
Cheers
Winston
use barnacle wifi tether or wireless tether from market, they are working very well
If you want to use 2.3.5 version, flash Swiftdroid RC4 ROM but if you prefer to use 2.2.1 just flash Utopia ROM.
They're both support native wifi tethering, so you don't need any third party software.

Swiftdroid RC4 2.3.5 have native wireless tether and working perfect
Yeah, on SwiftDroid everything works very well. ;-)
My softmod is based on RC4 but i also included pda.net which has helped some people personally though i would say if its not working for you try a few 3rd party apps as stated above you are bound to find atleast one that will work for you good luck on your endevour

[Q] Tethering with Droid X on 2.3 Gingerbread

Hello
I have a Droid X on 2.3 It's rooted and everything and recently I tried tethering. Every time I connect to my phone with my iPad it sends me to Verizon's page to subscribe to tethering plan. I was using Wireless Tether..but that stopped working..so now I'm using Barnacle Wifi Tether. That was working great until I updated to 2.3 I saw in the market WIFI Tethering but that wouldn't even download. Anyway for me to tether without verizon sending me to the subscribe to a tethering plan page?
Thank you
Just had this problem, scroll down a bit and you will see my name with the topic what is the best rom to tether, got a patch instead of a rom, works perfect for tethering my ipad 2

I am very curious now, because I am still on Froyo, and I just checked and my DroidX does indeed have the DataManager .apk and the database files! (by the way, the database has 50,000 records!) Does this mean that big red is also tracking tethering on Froyo??? The reason I kept refusing to switch to GB is because of that issue. Hmm..
Tried the patch above twice
Back to the drawing board I guess... I'm not really sure how to figure out this adhoc thing... With the beta app above, open garden, and barnacle I can see the SSID but it will not connect, and when I'm on my Xoom it says adhoc not supported. But the thing is, I could tether before, and I could connect with the xoom; before I installed MIUI 1.10.7 android version 2.3.5 gb
Before I flashed this rom I never heard of this adhoc... I am reading that there may be no fix for this right now, is that correct???
The link above installed okay, but when I go to open the app it installs I get a force close =/

Check your permissions on root explorer.
And example is
Use root explorer
Go too app data
Click on wifi tether
Check to make sure under owner execute is checked.
make sure if you got the wugfresh patch you select droid x under profile in settings. Common mistake.
Also with a custom rom you may want to go back to stock and try the wugfresh process again. I can assure you it works on a droid x. I've done it many times not with a custom rom though.

Thrive and wireless tether

Running a rooted droid charge. Can't get the thrive to recognize my hotspot! Wtf? Shows up on everything else (i.e. Laptop, buddies, iphone, etc). Is this a limitation of the thrive and is there a workaround? Bought a tablet specifically for this option....
Thx....i apologize if this had been covered before. I googles it and can't find anything definitive.
Sent from my HUMBLE by Danalo1979 using XDA App
If the hotspot app you are using only supports adhoc, then that is what your problem is. HC 3.x does not support adhoc networks. It does support infrastructure. You can root the Thrive and add adhoc support.
Bumber. There is no work around via the phone? I was hoping to not have to root the tablet.
Sent from my HUMBLE by Danalo1979 using XDA App
Some people have been able to get bluetooth tethering to work.
Got it! Sweet! Played around with the settings in wifi tether. Changed device to samsung fascinate and then mode to samsung soft or whatever and it works perfect! Now I'm sold on the device!

WIFI Tether Fix for CM9 and CM10 on NS4G

Does someone have the current WIFI tether zip file for CM9 and CM10 on the Nexus S 4G?
Why would you need that when both of them support WiFi tethering natively ? Just go to settings under " more" it right there along with NFC & 4g options you will see tethering & portable hotspot

I have not had luck with any tethering app OR native tethering on any JB ROM.
Also, I've never used a ROM (GB, ICS, or JB) that keeps 4G when using native tethering. Only 3G (which is slower than dial-up for me)
I'd like to have a fix for this as well as I use my phone for my home internet.
I keep a backup of stock rooted ICS to switch to from JB when I get home. What a hassle...
I've seen plenty of people posting that are in my same situation.
Here is the link to the app's download page: http://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether/downloads/list
I have the exact same problem. I couldn't get 4G tethering to work on Gingerbread, it works great on ICS and now I'm back to not having it on JB.

I know when I use Cyanogenmod 9 and 10 and turn on the wifi tether app, it showed up as a error but when I used AOKP, it worked flawlessly.
I was just looking for the same thing earlier today! I actually believed that it wasn't possible to have a 4G wifi tether hotspot until a few days ago, because every time I'd tried it (ICS & JB), I'd be knocked down to 3G lol same thing happens with usb tethering too.
on the bright side, 4G tethering works for me on PDANet and through native bluetooth tethering (which I used to use with my macbook pro) and android wifi tether (after a tweak in the settings)
now that the free version of PDANet sucks and I sold my MBP and am back to a bluetooth-less PC, a fix or something would be great

I even tell CyanogenMod on their Facebook page that it does not work and yet they do not respond.
I have the same issue with any jb rom. Are you guys on sprint as well? I saw another post where the guy said this happens with sprint users and to use foxfi, pdanet, or easytether to get 4g tethering. This worked for me with ics roms but not jb. Whenever I try to tether with a jb rom, I lose my data connection completely.

I too was having a wifi tethering issue, although mine was worse, I was losing all data connection when I attempted to activate the hotspot, however, when I switched over to this AOSP ROM (http://forums.androidcentral.com/sp...aosp-jellybean-v2-2-jro03l-8-13-12-a.html#anb) over on AndroidCentral, my wifi tether began working. It initially kicks me off 4g, but in certain parts of my home (the restroom to be specific), I can get it to kick over to tethering on 4g, but I just need to be patient. There is also a tethering fix zip somewhere in that thread, but I don't know if it'd work on either CM9 or 10.
I had this same problem on CM9 (WIFI or USB tethering didn't work). I figured out that it happened when I would flash the Trinity Kernel. If I used the kernel that came with the ROM it worked fine. Unfortunately I can't speak for the 4g because I don't live in a 4g area. Now that I've flashed CM10 I've used Air Kernel and I haven't lost my native tethering capapbility.
