adhoc connectivity worked on galaxy s2
this trick found from another thread
you need a rooted phone & root explorer
1. Unzip the file attached here (wpa_supplicant.zip) and send wpa_supplicant to your phone.
2. Using Root Explorer go to the folder were you save it (wpa_supplicant) and copy the file.
3. Using Root Explorer, enter the /system folder and press the Mount W/R button (upper right corner)
4. Now go to /system/bin and backup your current wpa_supplicant, and paste the new one.
5. Set permissions to wpa_supplicant like attached picture, then go back to /system and press Mount R/O (upper right corner, so you leave everything exactly like it was) and reboot. Done. Enjoy AD-HOC!
Thanks for the patch, but before you get banned by some moderator, please remove your first attachment. It's a paid app/ WAREZ.
Root Explorer is paid. Don't post it.
Tested & working on sgs 2! Thx man!
I can see the ah hoc network established from my laptop now.. but when I try to connect, it stays in a state "Obtaining IP address" .. so cannot access internet anyway .. Is there any workaround? Thanks.
Thanks dude
excellent, previously i was using connectify to connect my phone to Laptop but the signal strength was so poor and also after few mins it is used to go down. Now got rid of the problem using this file.
Thanks again

+1 for me too.
P.S. just replaced the original file using Root Explorer.
hi,
the same here that varunmagical with VillainRom 2.4.2.
gs2 is able to find adhoc network but cannot obtain an IP.
very much thanks if you can find a solution...
++
Thanks a lot
it worked for me.
I replaced this file. This step is important:change the WPA to WEP encryption mode on PC. AD-hoc is ok using my SII I9100 mobile.Pls to try it. tks.
still not for me despite the wep ad-hoc network created from the mac.

i have a tablet running android 2.3.3 rooted with superoneclick...i follow the instractions to copy paste the wpa_supplicant using root explorer.but when i open my wifi shows false and my table restarts.what i do wrong...i am lucky that i made copy of the original file
I´m actually able to see network but not to connect to it, any advise??
I take it this is not ICS / CM9 compatible ??
Galaxy S II
CF rooted stock 2.3.6
Working in free and WEP modes.
But there were problems with WinXP configuration.
(In wifi network first have myself to connect to created adhoc network, only then phone sees adhoc network)
Galaxy Note's WIFI VERY unstable after replacing wpa_suppliant.
I wanted to connect my galaxy note to my iPad's Mywi for wifi (ad hoc) connection.
Thus i did the following steps:
- root galaxy note using zergrush
- downloaded xda's replacement wpa_suppliant
- downloaded root explorer
- uploaded the replacement wpa_suppliant file to the phone and replaced the original one at /systems/bin
After this, my phone was able to connect to iPad's Mywi, BUT connection is VERY unstable and gets disconnected every 5-10mins. Also it takes really long to get it connected back, like about 10-15mins for it to try to get connected.
I've tried re-doing the WHOLE of the steps above, INCLUDING re-rooting my phone, but to no avail. My Wifi function was working perfectly fine prior to this.
Can some kind souls out there please advice me if I've done anything wrong in my steps? Or if there's any way to solve this (WITHOUT re-doing it back to the original)? thanks!
Hi! Recently I bought the Galaxy W equipped with GB 2.3.6 and yesterday I installed the latest january's firmware upgrade.
Did anybody try to install the modified wpa_supplicant into that device?
Thank you!
Antonio
Set permissions to wpa_supplicant like attached picture? Which permissions? Can you upload that pic again or just tell us what to mark, owner group others? read write execute? And from special permissions: Set UID, Set GID, Sticky?
By default at my stock wpa_supplicant permissions are set and marked like: Owner=mark at read, write and execute, Group=mark at read and execute,
Others=mark at read and execute. None of special permissions are marked.
Should it be the same for new copied wpa_supplicant or?
Thanks in advance...
Just one little question here. I hope someone takes time to answer it. I have been around reading about adhoc this and adhoc that. But what I wanna know if these methodes that enable adhoc functionality, allow 2 mobile devices to get connected to each other. I mean like between 2 SGSII not between a PC and a SGSII?
Like making one of the SGSIIs the center and the other client (or infrastructure or whatever it's called)?? Is this possible with all these adhoc enablers?
Can't turn Wi Fi on after using the file from OP.

Hello.
As many of us know GingerDX and other ROMS has issues with Eduroam connections across the world. Fortunately ex-xda? user holgerg123 found the solution to this problem. Thanks mate!
You could read this here.
I've made Clockworkmod scripts to make installation easier.
There's 4 versions (for me works the 1st one)
Version 1
Version 2
Version 3
Version 4
and file for those, who screwed something
Original wpa_supplicant from GingerDX v022
Rapidshare mirror
Installation:
1. Disable wifi, open Root Explorer or similar app, go to system/bin and rename wpa_supplicant to eg. wpa_suplicant.old
2. Download file
3. Put it into sd-card
4. Reboot to CWM
5. Install downloaded update
6. Reboot!
And you should be able to connect to your University's network.
And remember that you could brick your phone as always. You have been warned.

i don't know what is wifi eduroam?what its benefit?
Sent from my E15i using xda premium
It's the type of network used in many universities and high schools across the world. It uses PEAP/MSCHAP2 security and unfortunately GingerDX was not able to connect properly. This fix gives you ability to have free wifi Internet on your university (of course if you are in eduroam's range )
Nice

Eduroam
Great Job! Eduroam now works on GingerDX.
I also used Version 1.
Thanks very much ...
Is it necessary to use CWM?
Not enough if I simple copy the wpasupplicant file to system/bin directory?

You can of course also manually replace the files instead of flashing through CWM!
Just don't forget that the phone has to be rooted, you need to use a File Manager capable of gaining root rights (Root Explorer, Root Browser) to write into /system, you need to adjust the permissions of the file you copied.
it works =)
and i'm not SE Xperia X8 user
i'm HTC Desire user
thank you very much
i'm not found this problem in my university..
n i dont know different beatwen wifi b/g or n
Oh, god! Thank you very much for this fix! I spent at least one or two weeks looking for ROMs that allowed me to connect to Eduroam networks. I found out that MiniCM7 based ROMs worked great, so I started using GingerXperiaRay.
But now, I've flashed GingerDX and I'm so... so... happy!
By the way, this is my feedback:
Version 1: the only one working for me.
Version 2: it didn't seem to connect Eduroam networks. I don't know if it even could connect any random network.
Version 3: I got 'Error' in my Wi-Fi settings.
Version 4: this file seems to be the same than the original one (same MD5 checksum).
I'm using a MSCHAPv2, PEAP, certificate...
I'm glad I was able to help. You could hit thanks if you want
Nice to see, that fix I proposed half year ago on #cyanogenmod was built at last
android 4 + 802.1x?
does this work on android 4.0.3?
with android 2.x.x it worked fine. i could connect to every f* network i wanted.
even the network in the university:
802.1x EAP
PEAP
MSCHAPV2
CA-Cert: not needed (the admin's answer to my question)
User-Cert: no
ID: *correct*
Anon: not needed
PW: *correct*
since i've got android 4 on my SGS2 it doesn't work any more. (a friend of mine has got an iphone - he has not got any problem with that)
i don't want to flash my phone back to android 2
now it's rooted and flashed with RomMIX_byRush_ICS.4.0.3_XXLP4
i've spend hours and hours to find a solution for this problem (google, PocketPc.ch, xda-developers.com, ...) but couldn't.
thank's for help!

Hello all,
Since the release of android 4.x it was impossible to connect to some networks 802.1x PEAP (like EDUROAM).
The French internet provider FREE has recently published a rom for SGS2, which solves this problem.
So, I try to extract the wpa_supplicant binary from this rom and inject it in CM9 on my Galaxy S, and now everything work.
The wpa_supplicant binary file is here https : // docs . google . com / open?id=0B1rR4JYQ9hnGVy13SnZqZGVCYmM (sorry but i can't post an url, because of spam system, delete space), if some people want to try on other device, just copy it in /system/bin/
DarKno
PS: Sorry for my english...
Hey guys,
I installed the version 1 and at the end of the process, when I turn up the Wi-Fi, it gets me "Error" and i'm not able to use the Wi-Fi.
I also tried the version 4 but the problem persists.
How should I do?
Thanks.

Try other versions. If not, go back to original WiFi supplicant.
In the CMW Recovery, should I click on "Install update from zip" or on "Install zip from SD card" ?
Maybe I do something wrong..
Hi there,
I've been having problems with my wifi at my home conection. I can connect to the network, but the amount of data transeferd between the phone and the router is close to nothing. It doesn't even connect to google services... Somebody knows anything about this?

Rename wpa_supplicant to something else and than rename the _alt version to wpa_supplicant reboot your device and try wifi again.

I did that, and nothing changed...It still connects, but I can't access de market or any other site on the browser. Sometimes, when I turn Wi-Fi on, the phone reboots, I don't know if it has something to do with this or not...
Last thought, try changing your modems encryption and radio channel. If those doesn't work i'm out of ideas. Goodluck

Tried both of them, none worked... I already did a factory reset, I have the latest Aurora update, checked the router DHCP log (wich shows that the android device is connected), and I still can't access internet. I already tried another android phone in my home network (Xperia U, which worked), and tried my phone in another wi-fi connection, and it also works.... This is so weird!

Hi,
My Nexus 4 failed to connect to my office wifi (LEAP network). The was due to a known issue on Android v4.2 (code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=40023)
And the workaround is using a working wpa_supplicant from v4.1.2 to replace the current one on v4.2.
However Nexus 4 doesn't have v4.1.x ROM , and I tired v4.1.2 wpa_supplicant from Nexus S/7 but it didn't suit my Nexus 4 (I tried factory ROM and CyanolenMod), it cannot even list all available wifi connections with v4.1.2 wpa_supplicant.
So anyone out there able to connect to LEAP Wifi in your Nexus 4 successfully? If so could you pls share your experience?
And any other suggestions will be much appreciated!
Thanks and Regards!
I have the same problem, Nexus 4 with Android 4.2.1 ROM, LEAP WIFI not working. Also tried replacing wpa_supplicant with 4.1.2 version from Nexus 7 ROM, but it's not compatible with Nexus 4. Can someone provide a link to Nexus 4 ROM 4.1.2 version or correct wpa_supplicant file from that ROM please?

Well, I'm glad to know I'm not the only one have this problem, the thing is there are no 4.1.2 ROMs for Nexus 4 - yet.
Hope v4.2.2 can fix this issue, finger crossed...
I managed to get it work! :laugh:
Here is my steps:
1) Install leap wifi free apk (com.oneguyinabasement.leapwifi.apk) then set up leap wifi connection FIRST.
2) Download wpa_supplicant.4.1.2 =>
http ://snk.to/f-cu3a753u
3) Then follow the steps (post #43) =>
http ://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=40023
Let me know if it helps.
I have a problem with my university wifi network.
I can connect but the connection isn't right. My speed is slow and spotty.
Anyone else?
Bump
I am having issues with LEAP. I tried the file from #53
3. Install the 4.1 version of wpa_supplicant
(commands assume the new version is in the Download directory - modify as needed)
On your device, open a terminal session, become root
Make the /system directory writeable:
mount -o rw,remount /system
Copy your new file there:
cp -p /sdcard/Download/wpa_supplicant-4.1.2 /system/bin
Make it executable:
chmod 775 /system/bin/wpa_supplicant-4.1.2
Rename the old version:
mv /system/bin/wpa_supplicant /system/bin/wpa_supplicant-4.2
Create a link to the new version (makes it clear which version you're running):
ln -s /system/bin/wpa_supplicant-4.1.2 /system/bin/wpa_supplicant
Verify this all worked:
/system/bin/wpa_supplicant -v
- should return version 4.1.2
Restart your system and LEAP should work as in 4.1.x.
I could not able connect to any network after that but I didnt know that i have to use a app (like LEAP wifi free) prior.I could not even serach for wifi networks. I have reverted what I did now i can able to wifi except LEAP. I am on Motley Kernel and PA ROM.
Now it seems the issue fixed and pushed to AOSP.
Cru,
Can you able to connect to other network after doing the work-round mentioned. Could you pls try connecting to a new network (not LEAP) and let know.

Frank, you are right. It lost the ability to find new network connections after doing this work-around. We have to restore to new wpa supplicant file to fine/create the connections then change back to old wpa file to actually get it work. That's the reason I said we need setup leap wifi connection first

Also worked for me, thanks a bunch to all.
I had this issue on my nexus 7 and was solved relatively easy by using an older version of the wpa_supplicant file for the nexus 7 but for the nexus 4 i guess there isn't a version that works...
Anyway the patched one the guy posted in post 104 works for me, the only difference I had to make was the auth_alg, mine was originally set to "LEAP" where as in his example he set it to OPEN SHARED LEAP, which I also needed to do in order to get it to work
Í have rooted Note3 Jelly Bean.
Wifi works fine. But i cannot see the passwords of my own wifi networks.
I have tried several methods:
Going to /data/misc/wifi and checking wpa_supplicant.conf,
And also apps like "wifi key recovery" or "Wifi QR share"
The problem is it shows a diferent psk password. Its like a long line of numbers a letter, like if it was in another code.
¿How can I translate that so it shows the real password?
