Enterprise Wifi Fix - Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I am unable to use my colleges wifi because of an issue with using 802.1x Certificates. I have tried the fixes found here but they haven't helped. The network uses EAP-TLS encryption if that helps. Is there an AOSP ROM that has this fixed, does someone have a working patch, what can I do? It really sucks to have such a nice paper wait

I am in a similar situation but am lucky enough that my work also broadcasts an insecure network although I would prefer the encryption.

So no one has any idea of how to fix this?

I'm losing my faith I'm the Dev community, it used to be that among in Android could be fixed or changed with a kettle googling and XDA but now it seems that done problems are simply ignored even when they render the device useless

So no one has any idea what to do? Even google has utterly failed to address this problem, and I can't even go back to ICS

All right I'm whiling to offer $50 for a patch that works or an ICS ROM

Have you considered that the majority of users don't have this issue and that a dev might start long for a solution most often because they are having the same issue.
JB is still quite new and the nexus 7 was the first device that came with it officially.

To really work on this the person most likely would need access to the same type of network you are having problems with.

Ive found a workaround/alternative by using the connectify.me program on my laptop (which is connected via wire) to make my own wireless signal using WPA. Might work for you too.
I'll throw $20 at a patch.

what's new?
yeah within minutes of me activating the phone yesterday evening it was pushed to my phone OTA.
I bet it's the update that takes away free tethering.
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App
I did the update when I first received the phone on Thursday and I still have tethering. This is a built in native Android feature. Eliminating that would defeat the purpose of a Nexus device.
Sent from my Nexus S 4G using XDA App
Yeah I saw it as well, yesterday. I went ahead and installed it. The corporate Sprint store around here opened at 11AM and I saw it when my phone was activated at 11:30, so it must have been something they knew about before the launch.
The description said it fixes minor performance issues or something to that effect.
GRJ22 is the final OTA build sent to the rest of the Nexus S devices. The NS4G phones likely all shipped with GRJ06D and are just being brought in line with the latest release.
You can find a changelog for GRJ22 in the OTA threads (mostly bugfixes and Google Talk video chat) but it likely doesn't all apply coming from GRJ06D.

Not callin' BS, sorry if it came out as if I were. Just giving my $0.02 on the update.
I was pretty surprised tethering was still in there, too, given that they charge for it for the other phones.
I didn't think they would be able to charge for tethering on a pure Google phone, until I noticed they updated the features page at Google.com/Nexus. It now says under portable wifi hotspot that it is subject to carrier fees. :/

I'm gonna check on that. In the meantime, anyone know for sure?
Sprint rep said tethering wouldn't work unless the account was already set up for the mobile hotspot $29.99/month plan. Tested to see, and you can set the phone to act as a mobile hot spot and make the connection, but it wouldn't actually give me internet access. The laptop showed the connection, but with local access only and an error about the IP address. Not surprised - it was the same way with the CDMA Hero, too.

Same here. Perhaps you were having connection issues while trying to tether; I've experienced that a few times on my EVO.
has anybody made a 2.3.4 stock rooted rom based on the OTA? my phone gets here tomorrow and i want to root and go to town!

Mobile hotspot

I wanted to ask if you guys have had any luck with using the mobile hotspot without any monthly charges?

That's something we really aren't supposed to discuss, because it's kind of a gray area legally
But Wireless Tether is a great, free alternative and you don't have to do any serious modifications to the phone with this option, just rooting

Googles wireless tether for root users works perfectly for me just make sure you're selecting the correct profile (Fascinate!) and start up mode (WEXT ad-hoc works best) in the settings!

Did some digging. I guess the version I was running (2. 0.7) didn't have profile options. Got the latest and greatest, and it is working good.

Correct, on the app being free. I assume you are grandfathered on unlimited data. If not, be careful.

Considering purchase

I am really considering buying a Nexus 7 but am curious if it can be tethered to a GSM GNEX running on Tmobile without paying for the hotspot feature. I have searched the forum but no threads have been specific enough to my question. Thanks guys.
maybe ask in the genx forum, it will be easier to find someone there with a n7 then someone here with a genx
neither my rooted g1 nor my rooted g2 will connect via adhoc to my unrooted n7. I've been busy lately so I haven't attempted to fix this but I'm sure it will be very easy to do, there may even be custom roms for the n7 with the proper wpa supplement but I haven't looked into it yet as its not a bother nor have I the time.
point is it will work for some phones right out of the box with little or no effort, can't attest to it working with yours

appreciate the response. Thank you.
I use my lte Gnex and it works just fine.
Worst come to worse u could prolly use foxfi app
Do this
Go to a store that sell nexus7, turn on hotspot, see if u can connect
Oh I think I misunderstood your question.
Most custom rom for Gnex allow you to tether without paying the premium for hotspot. But, it uses your data plan. If you don't have unlimited, the data used will still count against your data plan allowance. There is no way around that. And if there was I don't think you would find it here :/
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 2
I'm on tmobile and have the Gnex, I've had since April. I've been using the hotspot on it with no problems.... I've never received a notice from tmobile. I'm now using foxfi app. I don't think tmobile can tell when we use the gnex as a hotspot.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda premium
They can't, because using foxfi is just making your data available to another device. It doesn't hide the data usage just allows another device to use ur plans data. Which they aren't allowed to block(vzw got "In trouble" for blocking apps that allow you to use ur data on another device. Tho they CAN block unlimited users from using them, they aren't allowed to FORCE tiered users to pay the hotspot premium to use the data on other devices)

There is not software from Tmo on your Gnex; just use the native hotspot feature on stock and you are good to go, the beauty of vanilla! I’ve been using this combo for weeks, and I’m sure you’ll enjoy it.

That's what I was trying say....the GNex is one of those devices that T-Mobile can't "see" you tethering/hot spotting with. I've been doing it since May with not a peep from T-Mobile.

My house was robbed, Nexus 7 and a bunch of electronics taken

I want to find out who did this, among the things stolen was a rooted Nexus 7 with Lookout. Any suggestions of how to find my stuff would be greatly appreciated.
I'm guessing you didn't have an antitheft app? You could try lookout plan b; installing it remotely. But that's assuming the thief hasn't tampered with the device.

I heard of a story of a thief in Salt Lake that stole someone's iPad. Suddenly, pictures started showing up in the original owner's iCloud because the perp had been taking pictures of himself with the iPad. A local police officer recognized the perp and they arrested him. In other words, not all criminals are smart. Do you have anything setup to automatically upload pictures taken with the tablet to any cloud service?
You can still install plan b to it. Of your account is still linked to it.

Actually it's not a premium feature, and I think it works with GPS off too (I think WiFi does the trick here). Login to your account in your PC browser (hope they haven't taken that too!) and try to locate it. Hopefully the thief (or thieves) is (or are) dumber than we are thinking he (or she or they) is (or are).
Best of luck.

1. Wifi calling is proprietary to T-mo services and OnePlus will need to get T-mo to release the info to make it work.
2. The above will never happen.
3. OnePlus lies.
So, you are better off buying a T-mo branded phone if you want wifi calling
T Mobile develops and maintains the code for WiFi calling. Ask them.
*spoiler alert: it ain't happenin'...
Ok. Moving on now...

How did they do this without changing the baseband I wonder?
Looks like they hacked it in, I wonder if it will work well? Without band 12 this is a big deal for me and many others and this will affect a lot of phones.

WiFi calling is not big of a deal, all it is, is a little more clarity or if u r home has poor coverage, u do still have to pay and have a provider, its not free calling if that is what u r thinking,
