This guide teaches you to reverse tether your Android phone via WiFi. That is, it allows you to use your Ethernet connection of PC on your Android phone. It is useful for those who do not have WiFi routers and data connection. So if you have unlimited data plan for your computer, why not share the connection with your phone?
I am not the developer of the files supplied
Requirements:-
1.Rooted Phone
2.Wifi enabled Laptop or PC
3.Root explorer or any other application which gives system access
4.File in the attachement
Procedure :-
Phone:
Download Wpa_supplicant.zip and extract "wpa_supplicant" from it, save it on your SD card.
Open Root Explorer, and grant it superuser access when asked for.
Navigate to system -> bin and long press on wpa_supplicant; Select copy, and paste the file into any folder on your SD card.
Now navigate to the file you downloaded, copy it in same way, and paste it back to system -> bin. Note, you might need to mount the system as R/W instead of R/O by pressing a button on the top just before pasting the file.
Reboot.
▬▬Ubuntu (Must work for other Linux Distros too)▬▬:
Open Network Connections
Goto Wireless tab, select add, and set the following:
SSID:
Mode: Ad hoc
Leave other things unchanged, and go to Ipv4 settings tab
Set method to Shared to other computers
Go to Wireless security tab and set Security to WEP 40/128 bit key and set key to a numeric password (or hexadecimal one).
Check the connect automatically box on top of the tabs and press Save.
Your Android phone must now detect this network, and you can establish the connection by using your security key.
▬▬Windows XP, Vista, 7▬▬
Download and Install Connectify from www . connectify.me/download-lite/
Start Connectify Hotspot by giving a name and password to your hotspot and selecting the Ethernet connection to share. Make sure the security type is WEP or Open.
Disable your firewall (Simply adding it to exceptions doesn't work for AVG at least)
Now your phone should be able to see the hotspot and establish the connection using the password set.
Known Issues :
1.Random disconnections (Very less frequency)
2.Disconnections due to screen lock / sleep on laptop
3.For me Security mode does not works

This is not a free solution , you need a wifi Pc (90 % of computers at work don't have wifi) and is too complicate for users.
Use my method : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1371345
It's a "One click free solution using USB cable" (no need to install other paids tools)
Not yet perfect, but still under development (I am the developper)
"This is a crap , as u cannot do much !"
Please stay on your thread next time before posting such kind of message on my thread.
No need to press "Thanks".
Ha ha lol !
Ur method has certain limitations :banghead:
Now adays every laptop and PC are wifi enabled !
I heard that connectify doesn't require root phone and we don't need that wpa_suplicant.

You heard correct (in most cases). If your device already supports ad-hoc network connections, then all you'd need to do is set up the hotspot with Connectify (or Virtual Router) and connect to it. Otherwise, this method's for you.

I'm pretty sure you're completely wrong. You're whole post sounds like it comes from a jealous, whiny little girl. And until you can back up this statement, I'm going to assume you are either a liar or an idiot.
Useful app especially for area with bad reception and no wifi.

does this rooting solves wifi connection problem which was there before ???
i also have one question for you, now tattoo is rooted, can i transfer files & receive files through bluetooth ???? if yes which is the best software to do so ???
Bluetooth OBEX
Bluetooth OBEX probably doesn't work on 1.6 as there are dependencies issue.

What did you exactly do?
In tiwlan.ini did you change 0 to 1 for WiFiAdhoc?
In wpa_supplicant.conf you wrote
Code:
network={
ssid="Adhoc"
scan_ssid=1
key_mgmt=NONE
mode=1
}
Is it enough?

How to configure HTC and PC to use Adhoc wireless connection
Hi to everybody,
i'm trying to use the two files Marsdroid uploaded on the forum, i was able to upload them on the system/etc/wifi folder in my HTC Tattoo, but i can't anyway configure the Adhoc connection between PC and HTC.
Do i have to manually set up an open SSID named Adhoc with no security, both on the HTC and on the Windows XP PC?
Are there some configuration to be made to configure correctly the ad hoc connection? IP address etc...?
Thanks in advance for your help,

Im still on XP (because half of my good equipment wont work on win7 (marketing thing)).
I used Conectify on other machine up until I updated conectify to latest version few days ago after which it just wont connect.
I will go and by access point hardware (which wont work on win8
well, i have the KalimochoAz v10.12 /2.3-rom on my rooted Click. (i know, there are now newer versions, but this is ok for now) and a Haipad M701 (chinese android 2.1-7"-Tablet, rooted) i'd like to use the data (apn/3g) connectrion from my phone to use internet on my pda via wlan.
If i understood everything right, that's what tethering is. I also installed 2 apps (Barnacle Wifi tether and wireless tether) on my phone. I think, i did everything that is set-able, but when i swicht on wlan on my pad, i don't see my SSID i gave for my click.
Anyone got an idea or guide? (i "just" want to acces my Click from the Tablet via WLAN so I can use the 3G-Connection of my Click to surf the net on my Tablet.)
Thanks in advance!
Wireless tether for root works fine for me.
Install the app, run the app, grant su permissions, click for tether and find AP you've created. If you cannot find your AP(tattoo) just wait some time.
i somehow don't get it.
I firstly enable APN (data/3g) connection on my phone and ensure, i can access the internet. then i start the app. (should i activate Wifi on the phone?)
I used Wireless Tether for Root users (2x version 2.X and also the exp. v.3.0 pre11), i just start the app on the phone, disable encribtion (should i care?), check the ssid-name (tried renaming or default), checked the cannel (used 1,7 and 10) and just click that wifi-icon to start.
the phone sais, it's on. then on my tablet (2.1), i just go to settings/wlan/advanced -> set ON and search for AP's, but my phone is not listed.
Did I forget something?
well, just installed the current version of the rom, and everything works fine.
EXCEPT... tethering. I use the version from the marked, used enc. or disabled it, my PC (win 7 x64) found my click, but my android-tablet still did not find it. why?
Re
i faced the same problem, by default settings.
However enabling "Wifi'Encryption" from menu, to WEP-128bit (with default password: abcd .. ) worked.
Hi,
I use "Wireless Tether for Root Users" from the Market and it works fine. By the way I tried it on several different ROMs including CM7_RC2.2 (Gingerbread) and Fyodor's AOSP (Froyo).
Are you enabling Wi-Fi on your phone? You need your regular 3G connection + Wifi enabled. Then launch the application and click the big wifi icon in the middle.
Perhaps you can try CM7 ROM, maybe you current ROM is somehow not compatible.

i've only used it on stock 2.1, miniCM and froyobread haven't tried a 2.3 ROM so can't comment but 2.1 and 2.2 work.
I also can't get my X8 working with Barnacle. Its an E51i running official (rooted) 2.1 update 1 build 2.1.1.A.0.6 My netbook PC is running windows 7 starter.
Barnacle installs okay and when started the PC sees the nework but gets stuck 'identifying barnacle' and says no network access.
I've found a load of info regarding the X10 elsewhere on this forum:
For the phone:
1. Install Barnacle
2. Make sure wifi is off then open the app, push the menu button and select "settings"
3. Scroll to the bottom, click the DHCP
4. Click "DNS 1 (optional)" and set it to 8.8.8.8 (as stated on page 1 of this post)
5. Push the back button
6. Click on the "WAN" and set it to "rmnet0" (without quotes)
7. Click on the "LAN" and set it to "athwlan0" (without quotes)
DO NOT PUSH THE "START" BUTTON
Thats it for the phone side but if you want to do some extras, you can change the "port" in the NAT section and "gateway" in the DHCP section.
For the PC:
If you know how to view your connections, skip to step 3.
Windows XP Users:
(I'm on my Win7 netbook at work using the x10 wifi as we speak, not XP, so ill try to get this correct)
1. Click the "Start" button (or press the windows key), click on Control Panel
2. Click on "Network Connections"
For Vista/7 Users:
1. Click the "Start" button (or press the windows key)
2. Type "view network connectons" (no quotes) and press enter when it stops loading
For All Users:
3. Right click on your wireless connection and click "Properties"
4. In the box towards the middle of the Properties you should see "Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4)", double click it to open its properties
5. At the bottom, click the "Use the following DNS server addresses:" and set it to 8.8.8.8 (to match the phone)
6. Click "Ok" on both Property windows
Thats it. You should now be able to click the "Start" in the Barnacle app and connect. If your still not getting internet but are connected to the phone with your pc's wifi, run thru the steps again for the PC but while being connected.

As a user said before, tether doesn't work natively due to kernel limitations, with problems as yours I would advice to test another rom, or Full wipe / Fix permissions in xrec.

AFAIK tether is only working with android 2.2 or above
I have used Barnacle on 2.1 droid and with 13 char WEP only letters.
I have problems with it on 2.2 ROMs tho... problems with connecting to the ad-hoc its creating.
works for me in CM 1.0.0/1.0.1, and FB... have set a 10-char WEP key. not sure if this helps but make sure your WiFi is OFF when u launch barnacle
I'll post the setting that should be done in the Xperia X10, so that it Internet share of the notebook (or netbook) through an AD-HOC network. I spent several hours trying, but I did what many say is impossible!
1. The android X10 must be root;
2. Have installed a program that allows editing of files (here I am using the Root Explorer);
3. Create an AD-HOC network in notebok and allow sharing the internet with other devices;
4. Enable Wi-Fi X10;
5. Add Wi-Fi network, the SSID setting the exact name of the AD-HOC network notebook and also the type of security (Open, WEP, WPA/WPA2 PSK, EAP or 802.1x);
6. Disable Wi-Fi X10;
7. Go to the folder "data / misc / wifi", it contains the wpa_supplicant.conf file that should open with text editor (click it and hold, then open up a menu where you have the option to open the file with text editor);
8. Edit and save the file so that it is as follows:
ctrl_interface=DIR=/data/system/
wpa_supplicant GROUP=wifi
update_config=1
ap_scan=2
network={
ssid="put the name of your AD-HOC network"
scan_ssid=1
key_mgmt=NONE
mode=1
auth_alg=SHARED
wep_key0=PUT YOUR KEY TO SAFETY
frequency=2412
}
9. Go to the folder "system / etc / wifi" (click on "Mount R/W," is at the top right of screen). This folder contains the wpa_supplicant.conf file that should open with text editor (click it and hold, then open up a menu where you have the option to open the file with text editor);
10. Edit and save the file so that it is as follows:
ctrl_interface=wlan0/
wpa_supplicant GROUP=wifi
update_config=1
ap_scan=2
network={
ssid="put the name of your AD-HOC network"
scan_ssid=1
key_mgmt=NONE
mode=1
auth_alg=SHARED
wep_key0=PUT YOUR KEY TO SAFETY
frequency=2412
}
11.After saving changes, click the file "wpa_supplicant.conf" and hold until the menu of options. Click "Permissions" and leave only the option marked "READ" in Owner, Group and Others, then click OK.
This last step is not executed lose all changes made since the system returns the initial values.
Note: When editing the files "NOT" leave spaces between the function and value. EX: mode=1 (correct), mode = 1 (wrong).
In step 10 in "ctrl_interface=wlan0/" DO NOT confuse "ZERO" with the letter "o". Read "wlan(ZERO)/"
12. Restart X10.
Once restarted just turn on AD-HOC network and turn on the notebook's Wi-Fi X10 that it undertakes to find the ip to connect.
Im gonna test tomorrow, thanks
For those who can't edit the wpa_supplicant.conf file like me, simply copy it to the sdcard and edit it there. then simply copy to the desire locations and then set permissons there.
OBS: don't forget to set root explorer to Remount as R/W!!!
Working 100% for me now. Thanks

Which version of its Windows Vista?

It's Vista home premium. Wifi Analyzer app sees the network as ad-hoc (for that it's better than gingerbread wifi scanner) but it cannot connect because of android.
I dont know which permissions on data/misc/wifi ?
And also when I edit, it says OPEN SHARED, I deleted OPEN to keep SHARED
Today I tried again, but I overwrite on files, I renamed bak to conf but it didn't work, so I had to restore my system on x10, then I restored my data apps and I've lost superuser rights, it was the mess, man. now my phone is ok.

For me it's working fine... Just sometimes it show as it can't find the network, but i just have to disable wifi on my xperia x10 and turn it on again, and if i don't have the ad-hoc network created, it tries to connect to it anyway and says "obtaining IP adress from "asdasd"... I use stock android 2.3.3 with Win7 and the android stock wifi software...
I created a ad-hoc network on my notebook with the name "asdasd" and password with WEP security as "1234567890". That's how i have my both files equal. I only see now that they shouldn't be exactly the same as Cristiano123 show in his post. I have both files in system and data like this, try it so maybe it should work. For me it works fine Don't forget to save the stock files!!! Try this for both files:
ctrl_interface=DIR=/data/system/
wpa_supplicant GROUP=wifi
update_config=1
ap_scan=2
network={
ssid="asdasd"
scan_ssid=1
key_mgmt=NONE
mode=1
auth_alg=SHARED
wep_key0=1234567890
frequency=2412
}
with win 7, you can use connectify or virtual router, some people said it works.
for Vista: I read this:
/system/etc/wifi/tiwlan.ini
WiFiAdhoc = 1
dot11DesiredSSID = MonSSID
dot11DesiredBSSType = 0
http://forum.frandroid.com/topic/14502-tuto-root-connecter-son-android-en-wifi-a-son-pc-en-ad-hoc/
I dont have time to check today
This tutorial from the link (forum.frandroid.com/topic/14502-tuto-root-connecter-son-android-en-wifi-a-son-pc-en-ad-hoc) is for a Motorola Milestone, the tutorial I posted is for the SONY ERICSSON XPERIA X10 !!!!!
It is not necessary to use any third party program to connect to the AD-HOC network, use only the settings of the post.

This tutorial from the link (forum.frandroid.com/topic/14502-tuto-root-connecter-son-android-en-wifi-a-son-pc-en-ad-hoc) is for a Motorola Milestone, the tutorial I posted is for the SONY ERICSSON XPERIA X10 !!!!!
It is not necessary to use any third party program to connect to the AD-HOC network, use only the settings of the post.
Are you following the steps correctly?

yes I did, but I give up
I thought of something:
on GB 2.3.4 ad-hoc connection is included, and we have a dump system for x10, it should be possible to port it.

Hello!
My GB is 2.3.3, and connects without problems.
Try the 2.3.4, then let it succeed.

Good day!
Go until folder "system / etc / wifi" and copy file "wpa_supplicant.conf", place same here as attachment.
Also verify folder "date / misc / wifi" exists file "wpa_supplicant.conf" if yes copy it and place here as attachment with following name "wpa_supplicant.conf2".
I will check the contents of these files and tell you how you will connect to ad-hoc network.
thx for the info...
i will try this later in my xperia x10 froyo..

hello all!
i managed to do do the rooting thing by myself (thats what i think) and i just need u guys to tell me if i did right
1- i followed this guide : https://forum.xda-developers.com/shield-tv/development/how-to-root-android-pie-8-0-1-nvidia-t3982709
2- my shield is now showing that error message at the start telling its unlocked,
3- i have now magisk and twrp installed and i can see the root directory.
Now to the things that i need to understand here is what do i need the rooted image from nvidia for? and why cant i access the root from ftp ? only my usb drive and sd card is showing but root not accessed from ftp.
MY android is: 8.1
Thanx in advance for all help.
2- it's not an error, but a warning.
Don't worry about it
The development image from nvidia is running a developer build of android which is prerooted and in theory su's like magisk should be easier to install.
The stock ota/recovery images comes with more protection which makes them harder to root and to do changes to the system, but thanks to people like @rootfan it's pretty much painless.
Are you sure it's ftp and not smb?
Smb just shows the internal and external drives.
If you are using an ftp server app on the shield you need to setup the paths yourself within that app.
Thanx for clearifying this, so in my case i dont need any image cuz i alredy done it i guess.
I tried to set up the ftp server to point to the root directory in my nvidia shield but i could not find any app that can point the root. All apps seems old.
How do you guys fix this?
I'm using servers ultimate.
I also think the app just called ftp server can do it.
Solid explorer might also be able to.
Atleast in servers ultimate I have to manually type in the path which is just "/" that should bring you to the root folder.
I use server ftp and server ultimate. The first one works flowless but no root. The second one that you said have root access but i cant connect to the server for unkbown reason. Could be the port

I tried that ultimate one and it says its runing but i cant connect to it from pc. My unrooted ftp server app works without problems. Any other apps out there that i can try?
Edit: after testing few things i managed to run ftp from browser bytyping ftp:// my external ip : port
But this doesnt work from an ftp client from my pc at the same netwrok. Even if i give the box internal ip.

Which one of the ftp servers within servers ultimate are you running?
I can only get "ftp server" to work and not the native one.

i found the problem, it was network problem, not ftp server, all worked fine, when i changed to another ftp client (total commander) instade of (winscp) it worked, i guess its has something to do with passive or active mod in the connection. now when i connect from pc i can run ftp root ( / ). thanks alot for helping me out.
i know its not so big thing rooting the shield cuz these days u can allmost do anything by sideloading apps or games but do you guys have any tips what do to with rooted box that cant be done with sideloading?
