I didn't see a thread for this yet, so I'll start this one for questions about wifi calling. Yes there is a thread for the update that includes wifi calling. If this is too redundant, Mods, just delete it.
My main question: does anyone know how to get wifi to work on a secured network like many workplaces use? I doubt my minimalist IT department has the proper ports and such open it whatever, so I'd like to know if there is a workaround.
Well, 111 views and no replies. Guess it's just not possible. Oh well.

Hopefully, this will help you all with your GPRS ventures with your handhelds, I know it helped me with my Ngage+Mac, and then K750i+Mac (when I changed phones, but kept the same provider). Hopefully it can be of some use to you guys who need the GPRS info and little facts here and there the companies might not admit.
Sticky this? Or keep bumping? Great resource to keep known, bookmark it.
The Link
I think Cynagen was going to post this link too:
http://www.taniwha.org.uk/gprs.html
It's got loads of GPRS settings for multiple Networks across many countries.
Still, didn't help My little problem though. But a great resource none the least.

****! Sorry, yes, I was going to post that link but totally forgot it! My bad, but yes, those are the GPRS settings, and if you find they've changed, you can even report those changes to the webmaster to get things updated.
I am currently running Schaps rom and love it. The only problem is my apps (skype, aim) will not connect over the 3g network, only wifi. I am assuming I overlooked something stupid. Any ideas?

If you give a little more information, including which Schaps ROM you have, someone could probably help. But first read through the whole thread dedicated to that ROM, cuz chances are someone else has experienced what you have.

I am using the Schap's 3.54b and I was not able to find the information I am looking for. I figured out how to load the bootloader and ROM without any questions but this mundane detail has me stumped. I also cant figure out why my applications are defaulting to my 3g connection when there is perfectly good wifi available.
Sry I was just laying the groundwork for someone else to help. I've never used Schap's ROM. Although did you post in that thread too? Because that would be a better place.
Sorry for the Hype...but i would really like this cab...
Calling all Chefs, esp. Att users...help please!
Can someone please create a cab file for the HTC Video SHare (Version 1, Build 31407). This is in the newest Att release from 6/15/08, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=400276
I have no idea how to do this, and I an frankly surprised that no other Att user is interested.
I appreciate any help...oh, and yes, I searched for it!
Mods-(please delete if neccassary)
I realise this is probably not the best way to appraoch this but i have posted questions in the Att thread, and PMed ATW, posted in two different Kaiser threads. Since i haven't recieved any responses, I thought I would post here because this is usually the only other thread i check regularly.
AT&T Video Share is a way for people in the US to have one-way video calling. (finally!) From what I remember, you can be on the phone and activate your main camera and send it to another Video Sharing capable phone, but only when you are in a 3G network. You can share only in one direction; you can't have bi-directional video.
From what I read a while back, just having the application on your phone is one thing, but you also need to subscribe to the service because it leverages IMS on the backend to provide connectivity between video sharing capable subscribers. Anyone know if you need to subscribe to the service, or if there is a way to rig up a direct IP connection from phone to phone?
you are correct
i used to work at Cingular, before i left i put vsc pay per use on my account...by the way, i tested it today, and it works! i was able to send and recieve video to another tilt! it wasn't flawless, had some errors. for others that may try this, it wasnt working until we had the camera's video share settings on mp4, and the video share call settings, accessed from the dialer, set to mp4
Anyone successfully get this to work on the Omnia?
I've tried the ICS cab + WMWIFIROUTER with Verizon's Touch Pro and that easily worked with out issue.
With the Omnia and I think or suspect it has something to do with the JAGUARGSP chipset it uses vs what HTC uses, the typical ICS cab flowing around isn't working for it.
I've tried all sort of tethering method, including one method here on Tethering with Wifi doesn't seem to work either.
Any insight to this?
By the way, on the Omnia HKLM\Comm\ConnectionSharing\PrivateInterface is blank, there is no value in there if that means anything.
These are the threads I look at so far.

Can you post what the answer? I have an Epix and I haven't tried tethering because I've read that people have had problems with it. I know I'll need to do it soon.
There is a discussion on another forum about tethering on the Epix that might help you out if you still have problems. I don't know what the policy is on this forum regarding links to other sites so if you are curious, please PM me and I'll send you the reference.
Yes, that would be great to see the discussion. I am sure most Samsung will or might have similar issue. I think it has something to do with they using a different WLAN chipset. The JAGUARGSP isn't compatible with that HTC using the most of the cab floating out there are built to use what HTC uses.
This is the WIFI Network Control Panel I have. I think I need the intshare.dll that is compatible wifi driver I have I guess.
I managed to use the tethering with success on the omnia.
I also am using the ICS cab + WMWIFIROUTER on the omina.
Hi everyone
as many many other users, I'm looking for a solution to enable ad-hoc networks with many failed attempts...
the only obstacle that faced all devs on all forums is that they can't produce working wpa_supplicant as they can't edit the appropriate source code for our tablets,
now, devs CAN view the ICS source code via samsung OSRC :
http://opensource.samsung.com/reception/receptionSub.do?method=search&searchValue=GT-P5113
can any 'super talanted' developer make a working ICS wpa_supplicant that can view ad-hoc networks for us?
:good: folks, if you need this too, reply the poll shown above to show developers how many need this
So I guess you all don't need adhoc anymore seems like I'm the only one need this!! forget it devs :\
I have a general idea what ad hoc is but maybe not the whole picture. So can someone please explain why I would need that capability? It seems ICS has included ways to connect devices together to share files, internet, multiplayer gaming.
Edit- Just did a search and have a better understanding but still dont quite get why or what it would be used for.

Technically speaking, ad-hoc networks does not need (infrastructure) to operate, like routers, access points ... etc,
in general, we can say it's a state in which all devices have the same status and communicate with each other freely without routing or so,
In my case, it's just too simple that I need to get my GT-P5113 tablet tethered with my Nokia phone :laugh:
unfortunately, the stupid Symbian OS of Nokia can generate ad-hoc networks only, so if I take my tablet outside without an available wifi-hotspot (most of time), the only option is tethering with my phone to get connected ...
there were many patches for the earlier android versions, but for ICS still no one could make a working wpa_supplicant patch to enable it,
the obstacle was that we couldn't reach the 'source' of samsung ICS used on our tablets, now samsung released it ... but seems like no one interested in this feature anymore
I still am interested in ad hoc on the tablet and also on the same boat for tethering with my Nokia (N8 FTW). I've been looking frantically for a solution even rooted it 3 days after purchase hoping I can enable the ad hoc.
Would switching to a custom rom solve this problem??
There's also patch made by Polish dev Szym who found that method. Patch automatically make changes in the wpa_supplicant source, but we need someone who know how coding and building from android source.
I already sent to szym question about help, he don't yet mail me back so I waiting for the answer atm.
Patch can be found here - szym.net/2010/12/adhoc-wifi-in-android/
Im only not soure if it support ICS, coz guide was written long time ago...
If someone would be able to undertake this, I'll be glad for modified wpa_supplicant to GT-P3110 as well.
opensource.samsung.com/reception/receptionSub.do?method=search&searchValue=GT-P3110
I hope we manage it soon, stay tuned.

Keep us updated.
I have a hunch the patch is not for ics because it was made a good while ago. If someone can just have the modified wpa file which works with ics to catch ad hoc signal, that would be fantastic. I wonder what changed in ics that made all modded wpa file not working.
Ad Hoc GT2 7 FTW!!!
