Everyone,
This is my first "new thread" - and if I have it in the wrong section or it is a repeat - please forgive me. I have searched for this in the Sapphire forum and could not find a solution.
Basically, I use my office LAN connection as a net connection for my 32a Magic phone by creating an ad-hoc network and sharing the LAN connection. I have been successfully using that by following the instructions at http://modmygphone.com/forums/showthread.php?t=22681 (which is applicable for all android phones, I guess). Ad-hoc networks are not enabled by default. The procedure requires changes in the "system/etc/wifi/tiwlan.ini" and "/data/misc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf" files.
Making these changes with the Magic touch screen keyboard is quite tedious.
My request is for ROM developers to:
a) Enable this in their ROMs by default (I guess everyone would benefit from enabled ad-hoc wifi); OR
b) If someone could create a patch that overwrites these files with modified variants that is easy to apply over ANY other ROM (would be useful for those who tend to change ROMs often )
Thanks!
Hello guys,
I have an HTC Tatto since last wednesday and now I've some doubts regarding this situations:
- It's possible to install games/applications in SD-Card instead of the main memory?
- When I have my Tatto conectted to the PC, it's possible to use the PC Internet connection in the Tatto?
When I enter the Market or another application, he connects always my operator connection, I would like to use my PC Internet connection.
Hope you can help me.
Thank You and an excellent year for all
1. No. (Not possible with official ROM - and there are no custom ROMs for Tattoo)
2. No solution I'm aware of.
Since the Tattoo is downgradeable am i able to use a costum ROM for the Hero???
You can flash different official ROM but not a custom one.
Android 2.1 is coming....

-- Yes, though i am not sure how but you can change it some where ( sorry for being vague here)
---YES, i am doing it now. Using the wifi on my tattoo to use the net. Just connect it in "Mobile network sharing mode" when you connect it to the pc. Or go into yours apps list and use the "USB to PC" to change the connection type
Hi!
I'm trying to connect to an ad-hoc network I've made in my computer with my HTC Magic which has a CM6-RC3 which says it has Ad-hoc support but I can't find the network. My laptop finds an connect the network without problems so I think there's something I'm doing wrong with my HTC. I've been looking on google and I've finded that I have to modify some archives but I suppose that the ROM has modify the files already because it says in the new changes. Do I need to activate this support somewhere in my Magic? Can anyone help me?
thanks
Hello
I know I will be repeating, but i have read many things and they just do not get into my thick head
so let me start
i bought a Samsung Focus from ebay.in (cell-force.in)
i got the phone. it had initial software (i think pre nodo) installed. i connected it to Zune to my PC, it took some time but it installed the latest release, i.e. 7720
now, when i further explored i found that it is not possible to install apps other than marketplace, also the great well known wifi bug
now I need your help
could someone please help me, what should I do to solve this
I want my device to be able to install any application I want
I want to connect to wifi (if solution for that ssid but available after rooting/unlocking/jailbreaking my focus)
Also, if I do jailbreaking, and when any update is available, would I be able to update normally using Zune?
I read about chevron, but I think they do not support 7.5 (7720) yet
So pleaser held me
By the way, I have WinXP in my laptop, not Win7
Waiting for your help friends

you can if you have unlock (developer or Chevron) and access to the XAP files. as for the wifi bug, I'm not sure what you mean

possible, some you have to buy

this should work regardless of where you are in the world. if you can't connect to a wifi then your phone's hardware might have an issue.
Also, if I do jailbreaking, and when any update is available, would I be able to update normally using Zune?
yes
I read about chevron, but I think they do not support 7.5 (7720) yet
no, it only supports OS ver. 7004/7008. You will need to downgrade to 7004 from a rom here, unlock with chevron and install several tools to keep the unlock.

Now, the long bits. I sent this to someone else, but posting it here so others can read. I'll build a newb how-to shortly.
First, you need to be on 7004/7008 OS version (check in settings/about).
If your version is greater than that (739x, 7720) then you need to downgrade to 700x
If your rom is greater than that then read my mini-guide here
Now, you need to unlock, so read this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=857127
It has a video tutorial, so it should be easy.
Once unlocked, immediately install Samsung Tools from:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=924497 and run them.
Make sure "prevent relock" is checked (actually everything should be checked) and reset.
Then, install WP7 Root Tools from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1265321
Now, you should be able to sideload.
When you've done all these, you could update to 739x (NoDo) but not all the way to Mango (7720) since you need to do some more steps, which you can also read here (includes all steps):

thanks Sir
you are really very helpful
one last query, can i use winxp for all this. i have read people have trouble using winxp
if not, i will have to update to win7, which is not so easy
You're welcome, good luck!
Yes, you can use XP SP3.
just wanted to share this
i succesfully created apphub account with my university email id
and now i have interop unlocked, and can install 3rd party apps
but still cant connect to wifi (any wifi), even if broadcasting ssid is active, but i cant still connect to wifi
it is hard for me to believe that there is any hardware fault
well lets see, if MS fixes more bugs/adds features in the Nov 7 announcement
fingers crossed

Glad to hear you're sorted, at least for most bits.
I sincerely doubt on Nov 7 they will announce anything else than generation 2 phones and some software. But we'll see.
For your WiFi issue I suggest you try this: install Connectify on a laptop with Windows 7 and share the wireless connection (or a PC with a wireless dongle but with Windows 7). If that doesn't work, your phone has a hardware fault. I know for sure this works with any WP7 phone I've tried.
Hi!
I need a hand with something I'm working on. I need to create an ad hoc connection with my device, at the moment a nexus 7 first generation, encrypted in wpa. I've tryed using the default network manager (i'm using a cynogenmod 10.2) and the result was a fake ad hoc in wpa. Was in fact in wep. I've alredy studied the problem on linux and it was solved with new version of kernel and wpa supplicant. I don't know if on android was alredy solved in newer kernel/os version or is still a problem. Online I've found really low information about :/ maybe you could help me!
Thanks in anticipation
No one have an idea? None of you know if it's phone or tablet can do that or not?
