[Q] Problem with Wifi Direct - Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey
so I'm having issues with sending files over Wifi Direct to another phone.
S-Beam works perfectly fine, so I can send an image, video to the other person.
File transfers e.g. PDF, Zip. Songs etc work fine from the other person's phone to mine
But when I send files to the other person's phone they get a prompt asking them to accept/reject the file and they press "accept".
my phone say connected and his phone say connected.
but is loading and loading
and do nothing..
Has anyone else experienced this or have any idea what might resolve it?
*Sending files over Bluetooth works fine, however this is a lot slower.*

I am having problems with wifi direct on NG1. My friend is on the same rom with the same device, we can find eachother and connect. But when we try and send a file it says connecting for a while then fails, nothing comes up on the other device.

Exactly the same problem here. NG1 Stock ROM with some debloat. Says connected at first and when I try to send the file it just says Connecting...

Please help me unlock!

Hi to everyone
I have an xda (i believe its a wallaby) modelpw10a1 ram64mb. I want to unlock the unit, but have no idea where to begin.... i did follow peters advice for unlocking an xda 2 via the cradle/activesync/disable usb port method but nothing happens (apparently windows should recognise new devise)
is there a program i can run to unlock the xda1?
Another thing - i have just moved abroad to Thailand, the local gsm network here is very good so it shouldnt make any difference once it is (hopefully) unlocked?
Thasnks in advance

problem downloading it
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=UnlockWiz/Wallaby
Stefan, thanks for the link. The problem now is that when i click on the link, i get a 'authenticode' warning pop-up that stops me from downloading it.... licsence could not be found etc etc.
Any clues?
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/uploads/XDAunlock.exe
Sorry, its the above link that wont let me download.
the link works just fine for me
Frustration
I managed to get the unlocking file, and copied over to my xda... but the first thing it says when i open it is 'error getting the unlock code'
Is there another file i can use? Am i using the wrong one?
tried this one?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=24779
Massive frustration!
I cant believe how hard this is. Have been on it all day! Everyone else on this forum seems to be unlocking easily, am i doing something silly here?
Thanks for the latest link Rudegar, but im having the same problem - it wont open. On clicking the link, Im asked the usual ''run file from current location or save to disk'' either one gives me the following error message;
''the publisher cannot be determined due to the problems below.....''
''authenticode signiture not found''
''access to the specified device path file denied''
So in short, i cant open it.
My friend sent me the XDAunlock zip file, i transfered to my XDA but it came up with
''error unlocking sim''
So thats obviously the wrong file for my XDA...
I read that the XDAunlock only works if it has the wireless feature? How do i find out if i have wireless or not?
Sorry for sounding so clueless here, but really i am not to sharp with this sort of thing. Ive allways used my XDA happily till i moved abroad, now im buggered if i cant unlock it!
Someone please help!!!!
i think the link i just gave to the allinOneUnlock thingy requires to be run from the pc while the xda is connected to activesync
tried that
Rudegar, appreciate you sticking with me here...
No, its not a question of the cradle being connected or not im afraid, i tried that allreeady with both the cradle connected and also disconnected. It just wont have it, im totaly lost!
by cradle do you mean that you have tried with
the xda connected to activesync as in being connected after the sync is finished ?
or have you tried the xda connected but activesync not connected ?
have you tried another sim card to make sure it's still sim locked ?

Strange issues during ActiveSync'ing

When I ActiveSync, I notice my laptop shows that it is trying to make a network connection...then stops trying. A minute later, my K-Jam says it was unable to make a network connection. The strange part is that I haven't setup anything to make a network connection. Any thoughts?
Thanks,
Tom
Upgrade to 4.1
I read somewhere that the Wizard does not sync properly witch any ActiveSync versions before 4.1 (which is not officially out yet).
Check here for info and download: http://en.pdamobiz.com/en/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=375
activesync 4.x does use ip addresses, if you check this link and then the link in it, you will get some answeres & hopefully all your problems will be solved.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=32022
I'll check out the link....thanks!!! I have 4.1 installed since I got my K-Jam. I rarely ever used it with my PDA2K, but I have to install programs...damn those exe's...why can't everyone just use CAB files.
Thanks,
Tom
situation that can arise with cab files is they self destruct/delete after the install is completed,
unless you change the attributes to read only

Universal not able to connect to the PC for SYNC--urgent PLZ

I got the new SPV 5000 as upgrade on orange and the first thing i did was unlock it using the bootloader by BUZZ from this site. Once i unlocked the phone, it works fine, everything is great. But when i try to connect it to the PC, it gives me an error, saying download Active sync 4.1 for it, I downloaded the latest 4.2 and tried to connect my universal to it, but it isnt able to connect, i dont know why..
sometimes it just gives me an error and says, check/report error and does all the status reports and stuff, but still not luck. I connected once and then when i clicked the explore button everything was blank, cant see my device or folders and nothing at all.
Please help me if someone knows the solution to it.. Cheers
Do you have another PC with which to try it out? Maybe the activesync installation or the USB drivers got corrupt.
Also, try syncing thru Bluetooth if your PC has BT. This might isolate the problem.
hello Jorgee, thanks for the reply, Yes it did work on the other PC, so does it mean that my current Pc's USB drivers are corrupt, coz the other day my USB TV stopped working on this one too. hehehe.. any solution to this PC problem
cheers mate
I find that if I'm connected to work using the Cisco VPN Client then ActiveSync won't connect, not really a big deal I guess but annoying all the same!

Solution Wifi Android 2.2 Schlunds

I have no permissions to publish to HD Mini ROM Development, published the solution here.
I have the solution to put wifi in Android 2.2 of Schlunds, the problem is in the process "htcUPCTLoader.exe" not allowed to continue with the process.
The assignment of IP must be static, do not get the IP automatically
Here I leave kernel with the new install
TESTED ONLY WITH ANDROID 2.2 Schlunds
Sorry for my bad English
hey thanks man
maybe u will find a fix for derefas sd card fix too?
Does not work for me. The zImage and Module are exactly the same files I use.
The Problem ist not the htcUPCTLoader.exe process.
tzacapaca send me his working 2.2. image and it still dont work for me.
The reason must be something else...
Perhaps bootloader or startup.txt?

Or the Windows Mobile rom used?
After trying the Android images, I had a lot of GPS issues under WinMo (not working anymore). At the end it was fixed, but could it be that the WinMo roms can be of influence on Android?

I start to believe is this...i'm gonna use use Stock ROM and i will keep you posted if it will be any changes
nsourm has a dualbootloader in his ROM
Maybe its better to boot Android not from "within" WinMo.
Can someone test that?

In my case the prob was "htcUPCTLoader.exe" it was not allowing deamon to start..so i had to kill it and then run the run.bat file....
Can u try it this way..??..connecting the Mini with pc..running run.bat...after that killing htcUPCTLoader.exe process in task manager..and then running run.bat file again..??.... it might work....if not..then there's no harm done
I dont need to try. The kernel module file (*.ko) in the image is updated. So the problem (at least for me) is not adb push. must be something different.
Codiak, your not alone. I am also not able to turn WiFi on. Do you get Error when you go to the settings to turn it on? It's like its not picking up the WiFi on the mobile.
The only thing I changed was adding in the run.bat
Code:
taskkill / F / IM htcUPCTLoader.exe
On beginning of everything, to finish the process before starting the adb. I haven't touched anything of the files zImage and adb.exe

This is my system (android 2.2) running Wifi.

Its the same behavior as the fixed module was not installed.
If you tab Wifi, it just grays out and do nothing. No error message.
See, im on the standard ROM. And no matter what I try, I get the same.
Ok, so it not seem to be WiMo ROM related. I use a custom one.
So my last idea is the bootloader (haret)...
Okay everybody, I noticed something:
I could patch the bcm4329.ko file, after android booted. Now you have to restart android in order to enable wlan. Often it happend to me, that an error in the android wifi settings showed up. So I went back to windows mobile and checked my wifi setting there.
As I've also encountered the GPS problem, where one had to switch GPS on and off again in android to make it work in windows again I also tried it with wlan. Before I run haret, I switched off wlan in windows. Now android was able to initialize and start wlan.
Also it was not possible for me to enable wifi, if the usb cable was still connected to the phone before the first successful operation of wlan. Afterwards it surprisingly also worked with a connected cable. Since I'm at work now, I can not test wlan itself, as it is only possible to connect via DCHP here. This evening I'll try to do so with a static IP.
By the way, this dynamic vs. static IP thing is a common problem in froyo. You'll find a lot of discussions in the internet for other devices like samsung galaxy and so on.

It worked, mine no longer displays as error. But I dont have any WiFi's to connect to as im also at work. But it looks much more promising.
Just we need to start looking into getting the battery reconised by Android, having to go into Windows to charge my phone.

Unfortunately there wasn't any precise error message. As you said it only was greyed out with "Fehler" (error) written below the wlan switch. It's strange that there still isn't any solution working for everyone.
For me, no "Fehler" came up. Just grayed out. Same behavior like I never applied the patched module. But i can see the patched .ko file in the phone
I´m using tzacapaca patched ext2 file that works for him...

Bluetooth problem

So basically my HD2 has problem with sending files through bluetooth. I can connect it to another device, but whenever I try to send a file it instantly fails. In settings I can't pair devices. I tried sending files to a laptop and another phones (android and not). I have Typhoon's rom.
