[Q] infrastructure tethering - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I believe the default hot spot for the Nexus 4 for is an adhoc network. In order for my car radio to connect to my phone I need to be able to have an Infrastructure network. I know other phones can do this, hopefully the nexus 4 can too. Any help would be greatly appreciated. :good:

This should work

Does Google Now Work Well on the Nexus 7?

Just asking since Nexus 7 doesn't have data, unlike the GNexus.
Works great. A good wifi connection will be lower latency anyway.

[Q] Wifi tether apps

Hi everyone, I'm looking for an app or a way that I can use my vzw galaxy Nexus to tether my nexus 10. I've used my gnex to tether a Xoom and other phones but can't get it to work with the 10. Btw, both are rooted.
Any one have any suggestions?
Have you tried wifi tether? What are you using to tether atm thats not working on N10?

I use both wifi tether and foxi fi neither one are working. They work with my lap top and foxifi used to work with the xoom.
Two thoughts
1. Make sure you Nexus in not set to 5gh WiFi only and see if that helps.
2. Isn't Verizon tethering now free? I don't use Verizon so I am not 100 percent sure. If I am right check and see if it works with their app.
Good luck.

What are you trying to accomplish by tethering or making it a WiFi hotspot? There would be no data connection to share.

I don't believe you can have a WiFi connection and access point on at the same time with android. Windows 7 has the miniport driver that allows this, but I think it requires certain hardware features built in that android devices might not have. I've heard this question asked a lot but no solutions.

There are several apps in the Play Store that do USB tethering. I don't know if they can get data from WiFi though. Search for USB tethering and try some.

EasyTether works with the nexus 7 but I'm using linux on my laptop so can't vouch for windows. However, it should work if you follow their directions.

Data service issues

I'm not getting any WhatsApp messages unless I turn my screen on for a few seconds then they all come in. Any ideas what this is?

Are you on WiFi? If you are, there's a wifi delay bug.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk 2
Ya I know about that. That isn't the issue. Also, when I am on WiFi and leave home my cellular network doesn't connect sometimes once I disconnect form wifi

3G disconnects when on the phone

It it normal for my mobile internet to disable when I'm talking on the phone? And when I cut off it comes back
Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk 2
It's always done it for me so I'm assuming it's normal
Are other phones like this?

I'll also say my old Galaxy Nexus and HTC One X did the same - I'm almost 100% sure it's normal behavior in Android
If I'm not mistaken it's because your using 3g to call someone. Now if you were on 4G and try to call somebody most likely it would still say 4G on the top notification bar because it's using your non LTE band to call somebody and allows you to use LTE for data purposes so you would be able to hop on the internet and browse at the same time on a call. Now I know with AT&T you can call somebody and browse the internet while on 3G.
