hey all i'm trying to get my tablet to regonize my fathers htc g1. it will work on my vibrant running cm7 but can't seem to get it to work with the g1...any ideas?
I had to make the device an open access point.
With encryption on, i wasn't been able to connect.

Is anyone having problems connecting the streak to any other devices. I have seen the wimote connect and the Di Novo, but I can't get it to connect with my car stereo. I gave my wife my iPhone 4 when I got the streak, but I downloaded extra bluetooth stack that helped me to connect to my stereo. Is anyone aware of any solutions?
Well, while doing some poking around in some other forums it seems that Bluetooth is a part of the Android version of 1.6 installed on the streak and can not be updated with out updating to a new version. So maybe when 2.1 or 2.2 hits the streak more devices will be able to connect. One more reason to love and hate this thing I guess...
same here, can't connect to my mac. says device does not have proper access or something like that. real pain looking for the propriety cable to sync small files instead of using bt
Confirmed working on stock rooted Photon. http://code.google.com/p/android-wi...tail?name=wifi_tether_v3_1-beta2.apk&can=2&q=

But does this transmit in infrastructure, like for ps3 to recognize?

When I tried it I could only get Ad-hoc connections. My ROM on my Transformer didn't support Ad-hoc so I couldn't complete my test.
yes it doesnt work yet it only does ad/hoc and isnt good
All of the wireless tether for root users are ad-hoc. Only the built in tether from Froyo and later are infrastructure.

That's incorrect. Both my gf and a friend are on an Evo 4G with wireless tether for root, on Sense, and have infrastructure wireless tethering.
Well I apologize. If you are still stuck with an original Evo 4g then it supports it... http://www.androidpolice.com/2010/0...otspot-infrastructure-capabilities-on-evo-4g/

Not Really, unless Jun 10, 2010 (Over a year ago is recent) From what I understand it it the Moto Drivers that they can't seem to figure out infastructure mode. Tonight my buddy and I have a plan to see if we can get infastructure mode to work. If it does I post the trick.
Well My first Idea didn't work, But has anyone looked at porting this method over to the Photon, Looks like if you had the right tools u should be able to update the directories to work with the Photon. I might be wrong, sometime I wish i had more time to dig in and teach my self more advanced Android programing.

My bad, thought it said 2011. I'm glad I'm not the only smartass in the Photon forum. Just get defensive sometimes ..

No access control either
This version also reports that the Photon kernel doesn't have what's necessary for access control, so that will have to wait until custom kernels flow in from the geniuses (of which I am not one!).
I also have been unable to connect when any kind of WiFi encryption is selected; only way I can connect with my Mac (which is the only way I can test) is to disable encryption.
Our power went out, so along with no router, there was no cable. I knew from this thread that the newest Wifi Tether wouldn't work but I downloaded it and tried it anyway. No joy.
Next up, I grabbed Barnacle Tether. It's got only WEP encryption but I was up and running and was able to stream an entire move from Amazon's video streaming without a hitch. So, that works! Give it a shot...

I had no luck with Barnacle - any settings that need to be tweaked to make it work? WEP is better than nothing!

I streamed Limitless to my Dell XPS m1330. My wife and I had forgotten we were even doing it - there was absolutely no stutter and no re-buffering. When the movie was over I remembered and was really impressed.
I don't know much about the settings, ad-hoc vs infrastucture, etc. All I know is that the wifi tether did not work for me. As others said it looks like it is transmitting but I can never find the SSID. Barnacle fired up and worked right away - no tweaks needed on my laptop.
edit: We just knew with no house internet access and no cable we could and wanted to watch a movie with my phone. I was originally going to buy it on the Android market and connect the HDMI from the phone to the TV but I don't have the mini-HDMI cable. Also, my TV is older so no DLNA. Only other option was the use the hotspot so my laptop could access the web and stream. BTW, when I accidentally clicked on the wrong window (I had the Android Marketplace Movies window open, also) it said that the movie streaming from Youtube was not set up or allowed for my country. That was wierd - the only thing I could think of was some IP address thing due to my using the wireless tether from Barnacle.

I don't think so. I just changed the stock SSID (to "MoPho", lol) and set up a WEP password of my own, 5 characters. Clicked START and it was up and running.
I spent three hours with Moto level two tech support to try to get either the phone portal or the media sync to work on windows 7 32 bit pro running Chrome 15, EI 9, and firefox 5 to work correctly either via usb or wifi. I keep getting security blocks (insecure content) even though I whitelist the IP address/port and no program is blocking it.
When on USB media sync just sits there trying to connect with the phone until it times out.
I have had an Epic 4g work, A HTC EVO3D work and it strikes me that the Moto software just sucks. What Level two said was to go back two to three generations on my browsers to try that as that is what they developed it for. Great, the wonderful software development team at Moto did not test the new product on anything remotely close to current software.
Plus I can not get the damn thing to recognize the unit on any powered usb hub. I have to dedicate a port directly from my computer (never had to do that before even in the Palm days).
I left Samsung due to their ineptness in software development for the Epic 4g waiting for updates but now I wonder if I made an even worse choice with the Photon software capability.
Phone portal is working great for me on Wifi. That's all I've tried.

How did you do that?
Meaning you were able to connect via the phone's wireless tether? Odd that the Fire couldn't.
Tether mine today using my Evo 3d and wifi tether easy as cake!
I have Wifi Tether running on my Samsung Infuse and the NT connected without a problem.
I was using wifi sharing on my amaze 4g all day yesterday no problems. I actually wonder why the fire wouldn't do this, I've never had a problem with any device that supports wifi connecting to my hotspot.
I have a HTC Thuderbolt using wifi tethering and had no problems using it with Fire.
I was having all sorts of problems till i switched to this : http://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether/
No luck running Wireless Tether 2.0.7, or 3.1-beta6, or Open Garden 2.1.1 on my OG Droid. I can only seem to enable ad-hoc mode, which the NT does not recognize. :-(
just rooted my HTC Evo purely for this purpose and confirmed that NT is connected and as fast as my EVO
I hope this Wireless Tether works on the Samsung Galaxy II S? anyone give that a try yet? Yes I know some providers charge for the wifi hotspot on this phone. But I'm trying to avoid that charge.

tethering to iphone
Has anyone been able to tether to an iphone 4? I went through all the trouble of rooting and attempting to use the adhoc wifi support fix guide for the color and it's not working.
Just FYI if it helps anyone - I tested connecting NT with a WiFi Hotspot started in my Laptop ( running Windows 7 using Connectify ) and it worked!

Got my NT to connect to an iPhone 4 today but had to turn off security and do my browsing unsecured. Will try again soon, as it wasn't my iPhone 4.

i'm trying to tether my rooted Samsung Epic 4G Touch to my rooted Nook tablet. the tethering app "wireless tether 3.1 pre104" works fine on my netbook but the Nook tablet can't even see it. any help please would be great or the nook going back to bestbuy
I have a 16gb HP Touchpad running webOS 3.0.4. Anyway, I was messing around with the Bluetooth on my TP and was trying Bluetooth this photo to my TP from my Nokia Lumia 710 Windows phone and I forgot it was still connected and my TP started ringing and I noticed my phone was also and I was able to answer it with the touchpad and talk and hear the other person. It was so cool lol. I have been trying to get that to work a while ago and gave up because none of my other phones I had ever worked. I also remembered a thread on what phones worked with the touchpad but couldn't find it to add that Nokia Lumia 710 WORKED and possibly all or some other windows phones works.
It also works on samsung galaxy S!

my u8800 is working that way with tp webos too. Its sooo cool, i wish i could do that running android too,
Yeah, one of the last couple updates made it so that option was available for all phones. But not text messaging. I think it depends on the phone. I dont see why something hasnt been made for an android tablet and an android phone to do the same thing. Its just a bluetooth connection. Whats so hard about that?
By the way OP, I beleive the latest webOS version for the Touchpad is 3.0.5 if you wanna try updating.
I made a thread about this, you can get some phones to support the text messaging with the touchpad, go to the link below.
