Good luck

Wifi connection problems.

I am trying to connect to my university's wireless.
We have two different wireless ssid's that i can connect to with my laptop.
The first, called UBC is unsecured, but when you connect, it takes you to a web page where you enter your username/password.
The second, called ubcsecure, can authenticate with either WPA2 or WPA ( it shows up as WPA2-Enterprise).
The encryption method is AES for WPA2, and TKIP for WPA.
EAP type: PEAP v0 , Authentication protocol is MS-CHAP-V2
there is an option for mutual authentication using a certification server:
secure.wireless.ubc.ca
I am unable to connect to either using the stock HTC magic ROM, the HoFo community rom, and most recently, myHero 1.0.1
I have tried editing /system/etc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf to include
network={
ssid="ubcsecure"
proto=WPA
key_mgmt=WPA-EAP
pairwise=TKIP
group=TKIP
eap=PEAP
identity="[email protected]"
password="password"
phase1="peaplabel=0"
phase2="auth=MSCHAPV2"
}
Any ideas as to how to connect?

Data wipe.
Try to reset your phone's basic settings.
It could rebuild the information necessary to acquire the specific IP from their connection.
Manually entering the data couldn't hurt either. This is something that usually I would consider consulting the school about. Privatized internet connections could cause a number of issues for those seeking to utilize Wi-Fi.
The NAT settings might be too strict to support a handheld device.

Me too!
have you found any other solution??
i m here in ubc as well with my htc magic 1.5
when i'm trying to connect to ubc,, it keeps requiring the ip but doesnt connet
and ubcsecure doesnt even show up!
is really frustrating not being able to use internet in universityyy..
i thought by activating the wpa enterprise will work for the ubcsercure, i guess not??
will any of the heros rom work??

Im having this problem too.. anyone find a fix?

I have no idea why but ubcsecure seems to be working using JesterBlur ROM. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=567122

it works on the Dream? or sapphire? I don't think it matters but... be interesting to know

Dream. Theres a version for the Sapphire. Maybe give it a shot? ubcsecure still working here.

Ask for working setting

Did you use the UI setting or you edit the "wpa_supplicant.conf" file manually?
would you please send us your "wpa_supplicant.conf" file or its ubcsecure part? it would be the great help to have a working setting.
Cheers,
Ali

I used the UI that came up during first boot. How can I get to that file?

the wpa_supplicant is in /data/misc/wifi. But considering how it works using the ui settings, i dont think changing the config file will work...but please still post it.
I also tried replacing the wlan.ko from the jesterblur rom... and doesnt seem to be compatible with magic which is apparently normal because there is a patch for magic users that fixes wifi apparently. I will try the wlan.ko from the fix soon probably to see if it works.

Hi guys,
I'm at UBC with the same problem (I can't even connect to the regular UBC network). I went to the UBC help desk and they basically told me that they don't support android at all. The funny thing is I can connect to the fatport network with no problems but cannot connect to ubc, ubcsecure or eduroam networks on campus. I'm currently runnning on Cyanongen 4.2.4 (waiting for 32a kernel to upgrade to 4.2.5) on a rogers htc magic.
Anyway, the point of this post. If anyones interested in meeting up at UBC to find a solution to this problem it'd be great. I'm hoping we can eventually create a package of some sort that'll fix any android phone but lets focus on fixing the current prob first.
Also @fnkaze - aren't the dream and sapphire the same thing?

Er, i think the dream is the G1 and the sapphire is the G2 aka the rogers magic... well i think the dream has a differnt wifi driver? maybe.. thats the problem
I think the reason why they dont support android is because the stock rogers rom doesnt have native wpa2 support i think.... but the custom roms should have it.. the hero rom does have it... at home my wpa2 wifi works fine
I can also connect to fatport, i think the eduroam is also using the same thing...tho ive heard eduroam seems to work on the rogers rom at different univeristies..
I still have yet to try the jester rom wifi driver tho, ill try it soon...

Thanks for the clarification. And the reason eduroam works at other universities is because the WPA encryption settings are based on the uni's actual/main wireless network. So at different universites the authentication protocols might be a bit different.
What phone do you have? The dream or the magic? The jester rom doesn't work on my magic.

i have the magic, but i think it should work on the magic, they also have a seperate patch to get Wifi working for the it.. so im assuming its possible..

So yeah, Concordia University in Montreal has the same WPA2-Enterprise and this is how I got WIFI to work on my Magic (with HoFo's Sense UI ROM, would still probably work with a rooted 1.5/1.6 ROM)
In fact it will probably work with any rooted Dream or Magic
Remember you need your phone to be rooted for this to work, you will also need to have the drivers installed for your phone from the Android SDK.
- Go into recovery mode
- mount the /data/ folder
Code:
adb shell mount /data
- With ADB Pull the /data/misc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf file to your computer (in this example it will go to the tools folder where you have your androidsdk)
Code:
adb pull /data/misc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf .
- Make a backup of your conf file in case you mess something up
- Edit it and add in the configuration settings given by your University for Linux wpa_supplicant.conf files, so in your case
Code:
network={
ssid="ubcsecure"
proto=WPA
key_mgmt=WPA-EAP
pairwise=TKIP
group=TKIP
eap=PEAP
identity="[email protected]"
password="password"
phase1="peaplabel=0"
phase2="auth=MSCHAPV2"
}
- With ADB Push the wpa_supplicant.conf from your computer to the /data/misc/wifi/ folder
Code:
adb push wpa_supplicant.conf /data/misc/wifi/

Honestly that person at the helpdesk probably doesn't even know what Android is. If they says they don't support Android at all, well using their logic any Linux distro using wpa_supplicant.conf isn't supported which OBVIOUSLY isn't the case.
And no the Dream and Magic are far from being the same device.

Thanks!
I'll try this solution and see if it works. Will post back to let you know how it goes.

Hi,
Ok, I just finished installing the sdk, fixing udev to recognize my phone etc...
The problem I'm having is that everytime I run:
Code:
adb shell mount /data
I get the following error:
Code:
mount: cannot read /etc/fstab: No such file or directory
Help?!?!

NVM after reading the adb -help i tried this:
Code:
adb pull /data/misc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf /home/myuser

Ok something really wierd happened...I pushed a new wpa supplicant file and the rebooted the phone and it stopped seeing wireless networks! But ubcsecure showed up as a known network. If I long press it an 'forget it' I can see networks again, but still cant connect to any ubc network?
WTF>?

Is there anyway I could use by ubuntu wpa_supplicant settings? Anyone know where the file is on Karmic? b/c I cant find it at all

did you find any solution? btw when i was using WildPuzzel v 8 (Froyo) ROM on my Wildfire, It perfectly connects to BSSI on my laptop.
I have seen that some people thinks that Android do not support it, if its true how come it worked with wilpuzzel
and just now, writing this post, I flashed Kernel HCDR.Kernel_v4.2mc1_Flashable.zip from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=995301 and now connected Wildfire CM7 with my adhoc network on laptop and its working perfectly...

Use root explorer. Go to /system. Mount it as RW. Then go to etc/wifi. You will find tiwlan.ini there. Open it with a text editor. Scroll down to the line that shows WifiAdhoc=0 and change it to WifiAdhoc=1. Save the file and restart WiFi. Everything working.
Btw, the CM7 rom for Tattoo connects to adhoc directly. No need to edit if u use that.

Bro can I get twilan.ini
I don't have it
Pls

100% working wpa_supplicant for galaxy s2 ad hoc mod for gingerbread 2.3.3 and 2.3.4

hello friends
today i m showing you a 100 percent working wpa_supplicant for galaxy s2 gingerbread rom for ad hoc network. yes it is test by me and also this is modified by me too. no one is responcible and cant take credit for developing it. currently i m using and testing on litening rom 6.1 and it works flawlessly. so no more wait for new wpa supplicant. becoz wait is over now. use it and reply me about ny bugs. i will try to revamp it. bye
download attachment and use it
if u like my work then plz donate me on my paypal account
[email protected]
and plz reply thanks

This is great!!! Tested on my galaxy SGS1 and works perfectly!
Thanks!!!
Edit: i can connect only if i set my ad-hoc network unproteced. If i add wpa2 or even wep security the phone gets stuck on "Obtaining IP address...", but it could be my ubuntu notebook.

Awsome sauce!!! Been waiting for this. Downloading and testing it now on my SG1.
Thanks
edit: just realised it is not a CWM flashable zip. Where do I put this?
edit2: figured out where to put it so dont worry. Cannot obtain IP address though on an unsecured ADHOC network.

what is this ?

It alows your phone to use your laptop/desktops internet connection. Create an ad-hoc wireless network on your laptop/desktop and then search for that network on your phone connect and voila your phone should now use the interent through your laptop/desktop.
I like it cos it means I can use my internet connection at work instead of 3g.

SGS2 on lite'ning v4.2 (2.3.4)
Open: 'obtaining IP' loop
WEP: 'obtaining IP' loop
WPA: [no connection]

it is not cwm file. first u have to unzip it then copy and paste this on system/bin folder on ur rooted gs1 and gs2.but this will work perfectly on gingerbread 2.3.4

hi haymzee
you should use litening rom ver 6.1 not 4.2 otherwise it will not work correctly.so first update ur rom in 6.1 and then use this wpa file ok

OH YES! will test and report; long awaited!

I can connect in the morning but after turn airplane mode on-off, then I can't connect till now.
It shows obtaining IP address, even I try to re-boot both phone. T_T

Hello everyone,
I finally managed to solve the problem of connections
thanks

hi to everybody,
thank you for your work!!!!!!! is perfect!!!!

hi,
i'm running LeoMar75 Revolution 2.6, and this wpa_ did not pass obtainig ip loop.

Hello, how did you manage to solve the looping 'Obtaining IP address.." problem ?

Also got the same problem of Obtaining IP address. I tried many configurations of changing the ip address manually with static ip address settings

Its working perfectly on our rom.
10 char will b built in in the next release
For all noobs:
Use root explorer
Unzip and put the file in system/bin
Reboot
Done.
Now test
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App

I use LogMeIn.apk

any solution for GB 2.3.5 ???

I've tried ad hoc on 4 different laptops and it only worked on the newer ones

I can confirm this works 100%. I tethered the internet connection on my Macbook Air with the phone using AdHoc Wifi successfully.

[Q] Iconia A500 ad-hoc tether

Hi there,
I have a iconia tab running the Virtuous Galaxy 1.0.5 ROM and trying to get it to connect to ad-hoc networks.
I've tried various apps and also changed the wpa_supplicant file, and altho it can see the adhoc network it doesnt ever conenct to it, just sits saying "Scanning"
Anyone any ideas I havent tried?
cheers

Yeah me too and don't even know suitable app to get help!
