Tether fix

I take no credit at all for this fix, but it worked for me. I have an HTC One S unlocked and rooted, downloaded wifi tether and started it but my 300 wouldn't see it no matter what I did in settings. So I remembered there was a fix for the Prime, so I thought what the hay, why not try it, just rename my original wpa-supplicant2 to wpa-supplicant2.bak, applied the patch and now I can see my phone and connect to it no problems.

IMPORTANT: I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE IF YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT YOUR DOING AND DON'T FOLLOW THE STEP BY STEP IN THE LINKED THREAD. YOU BORK YOUR WIFI YOU HAVE ONLY YOURSELF TO BLAME FOR NOT FOLLOWING THE STEPS OUTLINED!

this makes me wonder if the 300 firmware is actually older or behind the prime one. on the last update for prime, over a month ago, this fix wasn't even needed anymore. You can tether normally now. the update erased all the old files and replaced with new ones allowing tether. I guess you all will get the update to allow tethering soon enough.
I'm sure alot would appreciate this fix until the next update for 300 allows it.

It must be something with HTC phones then, I have had 2 different model HTC phones both with the tether issue, this solved that issue for me.

Must be something with HTC Sense, not the hardware. It saw my Evo 4G with MIUI v4 immediately after I turned on the hotspot.
Edit: It might even be the Wifi Tether app. I used the built-in Wifi tether in the ROM.

I have an HTC resound tethered to my tf300 since the day I got it.

No issues tethering with Samsung Charge. :thumbup:

I have a Rezound and my TF300 will see it, but whenever I click on it, it just says "Saved" but won't connect. Every other computer in my house will connect just fine. The TF300 connects fine to other open hotspots. What gives? You think I should give this a shot then?
EDIT: I'm running the latest 4.0.30 firmware for the TF300

Oh dude, you just made my day.....This exact problem has been driving me crazy for days. It worked fine with the Sense ROM I had but I went back to CM7 and it stopped working. Going to try this when I get home and report back.

tethered my galaxy nexus without any tricks using Fox-fi.
using "wireless tether for root users" would allow the TF300 to connect, but it wouldn't transfer any data.

Worked great!

teether works fine on foxfi on my epic touch 4G. The wi-fi on my tf300 is amazing too it's a little faster then my old TF101.
Friend of mine got an HTC EVO 4G LTE though. Foxfi has issues with HTC and HTC did something with wi-fi and bluetooth.
He followed the instructions to get bluetooth dun mode working on his windows 7 laptop. I then had him upgrade foxfi through the site (sprint removed it on sprint google play store). I don't know if it was doing the bluetooth dun mode which failed at first but after the updated version and a reset of the phone it worked.
I couldn't believe it but he can now use his evo 4g lte with foxfi wi-fi teether on stock. I tested it with my TF300T and teether worked fine on that too. Although his connection seems to be a little bit slower then my epic touch 4G but i've heard of a few tricks to make wi-fi better on HTC evo 4g lte.
Anyways did not mean to make this a phone thing but we got his teether working. So I don't know about other phones but I can confirm HTC Evo 4G LTE (Sprint) and Epic Touch 4G works perfectly with teether

i checked couple of people on my google+ Note 8 community in UK, they said it looks like they fixed S-Pen issue. A few reported that S-Note and Alarm is acting up, but wiping system cache and dalvik seems like doing the trick.

yeah...I am actually planning to install UK version if Samsung delays US version for some stupid reason. I have one more person told me UK version works just fine installing US model wifi tablet...so thank you for confirming for us, more people try, the better we will feel if we go with UK version

Does the multiscreen function work?

Anyone know if its possible to update via kies, or other ways without root and without wiping the data on the device, regaldress the region

Uhh, yea. The UK update flashed through Odin is a no-wipe update. Did it yesterday and zero problems. Actually seems smoother to me.

Did you flash the kernel as well? I thought that was usually included in a ROM but it shows as a separate download.

like jazzespresso posted earlier, I don't really see an issue with the s-pen. On the other hand, the periodic screen freeze has been fixed. That was bugging the crap out of me before.

Which is exactly what prompted me to flash the UK version. If the US version offers anything new and worthwhile, I will Odin that at a later date.

No screen freeze is great, don't notice any problems with the s-pen, and love that apps to SD is included in the applications manager. I was able to recover almost 1gb of internal memory.

I can't find the option on mine so I assumed Samsung had removed the option for some reason.
Also seemingly missing is the swipe to camera from the lock screen, which I had wanted.
I wondered about using another ROM instead but guess I would then lose some of the S-Pen ability and dedicated apps?

I flashed this via Mobile Odin, but I lost my 5 Ghz! How can I get it back?

I changed the 5Ghz channel on my router (Netgear R6300) to 48, and it found the 5 Ghz right away. Well, problem solved anyway Is there a difference in the UK version? I am trying to figure out why it won't see Channels 149, 153, 157 and 161, it did before.
One other thing, when I switched the R6300 to Channel 48 the router gave me a popup about the best wireless performance being with Channels 149, 153, 157 and 161, I am assuming it says that due to the possibility of more congestion, though being rural that's not an issue, and 5 Ghz seems to be fine on Channel 48.

they did not remove it, they just, for some strange reason, not enabled it - don't even ask me why. However, check Civ's custom ROM (based on UK Firmware), look at his post: [ROM][4.2.2][N5110-MH3][N5100-MH2] CivZ-FLEX-BEAM-REV3.0 + SphereEngine [18/sep/2013]
he did enabled it...
unless multi-users option is critical to you, I would recommend to flash Civ's ROM.

Wow the battery for me has been best ever. 10h31min and at 61%.. Better than any sense rom ive used on the One as far as battery goes. And this thing is blazing fast. I'm having a few proximity issues but i think that it's the phone not the rom.

which version of TWRP are you guys using? I'm using 2.6.3.2 and it says no MD5 file found. Any ideas? Is that the right version of TWRP?

The bulk of that time I was on lte in a low reception building. Only issue I have with that build is I get redraws. Screen freezes sometimes and the screen shortly from top to bottom will disappear. Will come back in like 30 seconds. I've sort of narrowed it down to keyboard, but not always.

i had issues with twrp, ended up using cwm instead and it installed fine for me. WiFi was a bit of a issue, I disabled the wifi optimization option then it connected fine, then re-enabled the wifi optimization.

It's phone related. Has been like that since day one for Android. Priority #1 is to restore signal and connect to carrier if lost.

Didn't notice it so bad with tw. However since this is work I can't change signal, but I do use tasker now to switch off cell whilst connected to WiFi in the office. I use three in touch which delivers calls and texts in /out over WiFi so no functionality lost

Also having issues flashing the newer modem with mobile Odin pro 4.20 and no access to laptop either any help would be very welcome

No 4G on Sprint after going to static IP

I recently went to a static IP from Sprint with my Nexus 6P. It took a day to fully work, but now I have not been able to get my pho e to switch over to 4G. I have cycled the airplane mode, soft and full rebooted, and just given them an extra day to set it up. I was wonder if anyone else has had a problem like this. And if your wondering why I took a static IP, it was to get on the go with my Switch.
