[Q] Tethering Problems

Hi all,
So I rooted my evo enrevoked method, flashed cyanogenmod7, and flashed the latest savaged-zen bfs kernel. I'm loving it so far, however I cannot get usb tethering or wireless tethering to work at all. When I hit USB tether, it connects and then disconnects.
I downloaded the wireless tether app for root, the one from the website that said Evo compatible, and whenever I try to start tethering, I get a "tethering started with errors" message. The log shows as follows:
Activiating 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
I also, went into ROM manage, and selected fix permissions, but that did nothing. If anyone can help me it would be greatly appreciated.

usually takes a reboot to work. or you can try this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1046764&highlight=wireless+tether+aosp

Lol, you beat me to it.
But that does work.

Wifi not working?

So I dont exactly know what is going on. I go to connect to a wireless network and it will start to connect, say its obtaining IP adress, and then refresh and start all over again. It never actually connects and stays connected. I know its not the router because I have tried numerous networks (that worked before) and now they just stopped working. I did have trouble with root and I re unlocked the tablet because root wasn't working. Is there anyway I messed something up? I installed the 3.2.2 rooted rom and now I flashed back to moray both with the same non-working wifi result.
Anyone know what is going on?

Did you by chance restore system apps and data through Titanium Backup? Sometimes wifi is messed up by restoring a previous version of the system app and data over a newer version supplied by a custom Rom.
You might want to just wipe everything in recovery, reflash your Rom and set it all up again fresh.

my WIFI was messed up when I swiched Kernels way back. I had forgotten to push one of the files... when you switched ROMs, did you wipe first or did you just install one over the other?

have similar issue after going from hammerhead 3.2 to moray 2.2.2.
Infrastructures wifi works fine, but whe trying to connect the xoom to an ad-hoc (from Nokia jokiuspot) just keeps displaying "obtaining IP address". Never had a problem with hammerhead? Guessing it has something to do with the dchp client on the Xoom¿
Certainly not a big problem, and something I am more than happy to live with as is.
everything else working spot on. Using a UK wifi only!

Network Connectivity Issue after upgrading to OOS5.1

Hi there,
I've been using my Oneplus 5 for quite a while with the following configuration:
OOS 5.0.4, Magisk 16.3, Boeffla Kernel 2.0, AFWall+ and everything worked fine. After upgrading to OOS5.1 (and Boeffla 2.1 Beta) I'm facing network connectivity issues.
Right after a fresh boot everything works fine. But then sometimes, networking (WiFi and Cellular) stop working. I can't get any data at all. Enabling and disabling flight mode doesn't help and disabling AFWall+ doesn't help either.
The network's are connected, I get IP Addresses and DNS Servers, but just no data
To get things working again I have to reboot the phone which is quite annoying. Anybody else facing this issues? Any suggestions?

It's definitely not the oos problem. Please backup and clean flash. I guess it's kernel or some of your apps like AFWall.

Reading this I felt kernel issue as well. Make sure you're not using the kernel you were using on. 5.04 (Oreo 8.0). Make sure you have a kernel from him that is made for OOS 5.1 (Oreo 8.1). Any thing from him that worked on the Open Betas should work fine

Solved it, was a problem withnAFWall+ custom script that no longer works on Oreo 8.1

No WiFi - Mac is lost ?!?

I have a rooted Stock Rom (Magisk). After an update I did have problems with WiFi. First I was not able to connect to new stations (only after reboot). Now even that is not working - no Wifi at all. I can enable it, but scan doesn't found anything.
Anyone can help me get it working (without a full wipe of each and everything)?
Probably only access to S5e is via ADB.
Wifi module itself seems to work, I can create a hotspot. So other way around it works. Weird.
