[Q] Applications not getting installed from PC to device. - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all,
I have recently bought my Galaxy S2 and I am trying to install apps from android market. I log in to my Gmail account on PC internet and connect my S2 with PC. Then I chose the free app like Angry birds to be installed. Now on the webpage it shows below the app this message: "This app is compatible with your AirTel Samsung GT-I9100.", which means my phone is connected and compatible.
Then I clicked on the install button and a pop up appeared saying that the application will be installed [or downloaded] to your device shortly. But after that nothing happened. I waited for a long time and there is nothing on my S2. I checked the Settings -> Applications -> Manage applications, and it doesn't show anything there.
I am NOT connected to internet on my mobile, because I want to utilize my PC internet which is broadband. I have not enabled any other setting on S2 before doing this. I have only enabled the Settings -> Applications -> Unknown Sources option for convenience. Even the USB debugging is also disabled.
Can someone please let me know what I am missing? Or if there are any other additional settings that I need to do? Please help guys, I am pretty new with this android stuff...
Thanks in advance...!!!

It cannot download to your phone without it having a running internet connection I'm afraid.

So do you mean to say that I need to have my mobile internet connection ON in order to get that app downloaded and installed on my phone?

Unless you can connect to WiFi.

Yes you need internet connection on your phone also, you cannot install it via the pc's broadband connection. Do one thing download connectify and make your pc as a wifi hotspot and then connect to the hotspot and then begin downloading.

Or you could enable data connection on your device like edge or 3g.
Now that you have a smartphone you should probably get it activated.
Airtel has plans like Rs 98 for 2gb Edge.

Thanks a lot guys for the replies.

Frankimm, I have currently activated the 98 Rs, 1 GB plan. But it's 2g. Still, I will try out the ideas you have shared. Thanks a ton...
Will get back to you guys in case of any issues.

Just to update you guys that when I connected internet on my phone, the previously selected app from the android market got downloaded and installed automatically. So this is how it works. Good to know it finally.

WI-FI hotspot tethering not working

Hi, I'm using an unlocked Samsung i777 outside the US. But the fact that wifi tethering is not working. Every time when I try to enable it, it says "mobile data not available or invalid sim".
3G/HSDPA connecton fine and SIMcard has a data plan and I can even use usb tethering.
How can I make it work? Phone is rooted.
I am using hellraised stock Rom XWLA4. When was UCKH7 also not working.
In system/app have 3 app wifi 1.0, wifi sharing 1.0, wifi sharing manager 1.0. I tried to freeze them, no luck.
Thanks.
Either wifi tethering is broken on XWLA4 (I haven't played with it myself yet), or something about the CSC or apns-conf.xml doesn't work with your carrier.
Hellraiser is designed under the assumption that only AT&T customers would subject themselves to the carrier-mangling of the I777 and as such, includes an AT&T-tuned CSC. There's a possibility that you need to remove all of the CSC files from the Hellraiser zip and wipe/reflash. It's either that or XWLA4 is busted.
Hahah lol...dud even I had exactly the same concern. Its not a big problem Jus download FoxFi from Android Market and voila! It will take away ur pain It enables the WiFi hotspot tethering like a charm without any problem. Its free..Jus type the above name in Android market and install. Then open the app and touch on Activate WiFi hotspot. Its done. Let me know bout it. TC.

Third-party tethering apps are not a solution unless there is no way to fix native tethering. Most of not all of them put the device into adhoc mode, which is incompatible with many devices.

I do agree, I have tried foxfi before but it will hang and force close uninstalled and reinstalled the app with same results. I have uninstalled tethering provision app on rooted stock ics but then again when I start the native wifi hotspot it just hang for several seconds the force close saying the application setting has stopped. Now I just remember installing this foxfi app again upon reading this thread and am now happy it works and I can now tether thru wifi hotspot with my phone. Having a solution to the native phone wifi hotspot though is pretty sweet. I don't know if the uninstalling of the tethering provision app has help but at least I have a functional wifi hotspot now.

I was searching for answers for my HotSpot problem and found this thread.....I'm piggy backing because it remains open even though maybe resolved - hope that is ok?
I couldn't seem to get my Hotspot to work and so I downloaded FoxFi. It seems to send a signal fine, and my iPad sees the SSID fine. My phone shows Connected: my mac address- duration - ipad's ip address but when I try to go to a web site my ipad show the following error dialog:
Cannot Open Page
Safari cannot open the page because it is not connected to the internet
Thoughts anyone?
Yer not asking us to help you trouble shoot something that isn't even running the Android operating system are you? Cause obviously that'd be silly to do in a forum like this. Does the tethering work with your computer? If so its a problem with the Apple product you're talking about and should be addressed in their forums.

Well, when i use my native Android Wi-Fi Hotspot the phone says it is an active hotspot and my iPad does connect, but I get the same error message when I try and browse the net:
Cannot Open Page
Safari cannot open the page because it is not connected to the internet
I would naturally prefer to use the native mode.....any help with that?
Thanks in advance

[Q] Tethering with rooted ICS phone

I have searched extensively on Google, and XDA but can't find the right answer.
I want to tether my phone. I can do this directly in Android but my current carrier brings up a message in the browser saying it's not supported on my current plan.
I'm addressing this, but in the mean time I'm curious if there is a way round it, hypothetically.
I have seen some Apps, such as ClockWork Mod Tether, but since my phone is rooted I wondered if there is a more elegant solution that doesn't involve any software to be added to my PC.
I read about using TB to freeze a specific App/Process but couldn't find any details.
Any advice would be great,
thanks

HOW have you not heard of android wifi tether? One of the first reasons I had for rooting the first Android phone I got.
There's also Barnacle Tether, available on the play store.
Guess Barnacle is gone... but there are other tethering apps on the play store though.
And I'm wrong again. Barnacle is still there, but doesn't show up when I search from my phone. How curious.
Since your phone is rooted you can download wireless tether.
Google it and you will easily find the download link or even directly via the play store.

I appreciate the reply, but if you read my post again the issue I'm having is not an app to enable wifi tether directly on the handset, it's that the packet data is being detected as not from the phone so I get a message, on the computer, in the internet browser saying my priceplan doesn't include tethering. I cant get around this 3 website redirect. So, I need a way to tether, without the network knowing... The apps you mention work when the block is at the phone level I believe.... This is something different Three is doing..
Please correct me if I'm wrong though...
Oh, and as for the apps not showing up, the mobile phone providers asked google to block these apps for certain customers.. if you connect to a wifi network when in flight mode, and go the google market, you should still be able to see them...

I WAS on wifi.
And did you ACTUALLY download the tether app and try, or were you using the tether built into the settings of Android? Because it sure doesn't sound like you downloaded the app...
And I don't have tethering on my carrier plan, but the tether app works just fine for me.

Initially when I first posted I was trying the built in app but I downloaded the app you suggested anyway, but it didn't work. would connect to the computer but no data connection. Unsure if its an app problem or still a three problem, but I don't see how this app would fix the three problem. Does it somehow mask the PC data connection??? I couldn't see anything in the settings or set up that suggest that it would, it just looks like a more feature rich wifi hotspot app?? In addition I found mention that that others with my issue have also tried these apps like barnacle and it didn;t resolve the problem....

They can suspend your service if they discover you are doing tethering on your device if you are not alowed in your current plan.
I Hope you wont have any issues.
Otherwise it is possible that the sim card lock the feature even on rooted phone when detect thetering or it is impossible ?

yes I suppose they could do, but like I say I'm resolving this with my contract. It's more that I'm curious how they are doing it, and on principle don't like being told what I can and can't do
It can't be a sim lock.
I just tried tethering a Macbook, and amazingly that worked!.. SO, It must be something to do with the Packet Headers I'm guessing.. Or they are doing some other more detailed packet sniffing... It means there is definitely a software route around it... Need a clever developer to read this thread
I guess clockworkMod Tether might work, but I want a solution without a PC install..

That doesn't make any sense. If it works with a mac book, it should work with your windows machine too. Unless your windows machine has some kind of proxy?

no proxy.. I'm as confused as you. The headers are different on a mac though, Unix based system... Need to know how 3 detect at a network level its not phone data... this difference with a mac must be a clue...

When you use thetering, you embark to the provider internet network.
for example my provider is Bell Canada and their proxy is web.wireless.bell.ca
this one is for the device internet
for the thetering one they use another configuration settings when i connect my device to the computer.
What happen is when you plug your device to the computer, a signal is sent to the provider stating you entered in thetering mode. You don't have access to thetering so your internet connection is limited to the walled garden of the provider stating you are not subscrided to the service. Thats why i think they blocked the port 80 on your device and redirect you to that page.
Now for the Macintosh story.. It is not impossible that you can connect without problem with a mac and safari. I know a lot of people emulating a handled device with the Mac and the safari browser and those peeps didnt had a thetering plan.
The differences came with the drivers installed. Mac OS one are quite different in term of functionality than windows, thats why maybe the provider is able to sniff more easily people using windows but i am not a senior programmer. I am currently taking courses to become one but for now it is only suppositions. If i am wrong feel free to correct me but I am quite sure about what i am saying and that's why you dont have issues with a mac

This sounds correct to me. I'm pretty annoyed though. Only had the contract a month, I was told I could move onto a more expensive plan within contract if I needed more allowance etc.. Phone up 3, not only do they not let you PAY MORE for a different plan, but they also don't let anyone shift onto the one plan ever, unless its a new contract.. So basically **** them... so even if I want to pay extra for tethering I can't... absolute nonsense...
I had the same issue with three. I downloaded masqued crusader from play store. Activated it and then started wireless/usb tether. It worked. That was a while back tho. On a payg sim card on a galaxy s on gb. Its worth a try though.

[Q] Hotspot problem

I have my GS3 I9300 for a couple months now. For the several time I tried to use it as a hotspot, it wouldn't connect to my laptop wirelessly.
It shows up on my laptop that is available, and when I connect to it, I get an error. Connecting the tether through USB works fine, I just can't seem to find out why the wifi isn't working.
Anyone have the same problem?!?
can other devices connect to your SGS 3 ?
have you tried to manually add the network that you've created?
i would also check if it works when you set your device as an open hotspot without a password/
OP i should edit the threads title unless you are after cookery advice .

I have tried manually add the network, it still won't connect.
No i have not try another device yet
I have tried to do it without a password and still won't connect

Did you set it to allow connection from any device. At the top of the tether configuration page you can change it.
If you enabled it but did not add your laptop to the white list then nothing will be able to connect even without passwords.

[App][4.0+][NoRoot] ReverseTethering NoRoot

Hi,
I was constantly annoyed by the poor wifi signal when I had my devices connected to the computer, so I wondered why I could not use my computer's Internet connection on the Android devices when they were already connected via a USB cable. Extensive Google searches only showed solutions that would not work at all or required the Android device to be rooted. That's when I decided to develop my own solution:
ReverseTethering NoRoot allows you to share your computer's Internet connection with your Android device via a USB cable.
Use Android apps that require Internet in places where you don't have or are not allowed to have a wireless Internet connection!
Your Android device's Internet connection is slow and unstable? You've your Android device already connected to your computer for charging, file syncing or app debugging? Why not use your computer's fast, stable Internet connection on your Android device?.
Features:
Use your computer's Internet connection on your Android device
Works with Mac, Windows and Linux
Works on all Android versions starting from 4.0
NO root needed
Easy set-up, no messing around with tons of command lines
The only way to have wired Internet on devices that do not support Ethernet
There is also a pro version with these additional features:
Connections longer than 10 minutes per 30 minutes
Get rid of the ads
Links:
Play Store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.floriandraschbacher.reversetethering.free
PRO Version: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.floriandraschbacher.reversetethering.pro
Please keep in mind that this is the very first version of the application. There will be issues. Please report them below and I'll give my best to fix them as soon as possible. The app was tested on Android 4.1, 4.2 and 6.0, but it should work on all devices running Android versions 4.0 and above.:fingers-crossed:
Let me know if you have any questions or suggestions! Any feedback is highly appreciated !
I just released version 1.0.1 with these changes:
Improved speed on older devices
Bug fixes
Great
looks cool , gonna check it

Hi,
Thanks for your feedback
As I've mentioned in the app description, some apps do not recognize ReverseTethering's connection because they only look for a Wifi or 3G connection. This is not an issue of ReverseTethering, but of those third-party apps. If you want to use ReverseTethering with such a third-party app, please contact the respective author of the third-party app.
As a side note: This incompatibility of some third-party app is nothing specific to ReverseTethering NoRoot, but applies to all reverse tethering solutions.
Thanks for the app.I will give it a try and send you my feedback.

Hi!
Is the server program running? Does it say it detected the device?
This app works fine on Android ICS. I am able to access full internet. I managed to download apps from google play . There is an Xposed module (HackserviceConnectivity) which fools the apps that they are connected to wifi or mobile network. Device needs to be rooted though. But I cant tether the tethered internet. I need to tether he tethered internet via WiFi tether but it is not working. unable to access the internet. Any idea?
please give me a link to download reverse tethering server application,as the program needs this running in windows.

On my Galaxy Note 8 (JB 4.1) and Galaxy S4 (JB 4.3), sharing the reverse tethered connection via wifi tethering worked. Please note I switched the device to offline mode, then connected reverse tethering, then started wifi tethering. For starting wifi tethering, I used my app FastFileTransfer (link in my signature), because the System UI does not allow enabling wifi tethering when in offline mode. Being in offline mode might have been essential, so just try if it helps.

The windows program is available here: http://fdmobileinventions.blogspot.com/p/reversetethering-server.html. Let me know if you need further help setting it up.
OP, add a copy of the free app at the end of the thread. People would find that interesting. Good job!

How to run adb file server

Why there's no other app like FQrouter2 app?

I don't know about this feature of turning our android device into Wi-Fi repeater until I come across this app Fqrouter2 and the sad part is, it's not working currently I don't know the reason, it's even pulled down from the Play Store. Is there anyone in development interested in making such app or already trying? I searched the internet and couldn't find a similar app like this, it has other features as well but Wi-Fi repeater/extender caught my eye. If anyone can come up with only Wi-Fi repeater/extender feature app, that would be great. Thanks.

AFAIK most devices/wifi chips can use either AP mode (WiFi Hotspot) or connect to an existing WiFi. I guess it just works with some devices/WiFi chipsets.

Even I was under this impression for long time. I got to know with this App you can use Wi-Fi and Extender(Hotspot) simultaneously.
Edit: It works only on rooted devices, I can install the app but unable to execute it on both Marshmallow and Kitkat.
I wish there is one. Wifi extender/repeater is a catching feature

Try netshare-no-root-tethering on Google Play, tested and works on my Marshmallow device. You connect to a wi-fi, turn on the netshare app, and it creates another wifi network like mobile hotspot that other devices can connect to.
So does FQrouter2 still work on Android 4.2.2? Or did it require ancient versions of Android to work?

As far as I can tell, this is the only working app. Tested on AOSP Marshmallow Galaxy S4 - I took my sim card out to make sure it wasn't using mobile data, and it works! Shares your WiFi as another network. Unfortunately the app is ugly as all hell and doesn't let you change the name or password of the hotspot. Plus it requires you to use some dodgy proxy thing so it's not quite as good as fqrouter used to be. Anyone know of any other apps?
EDIT: also doesn't seem to play well with HTTPS

Hey mate! Do you have apk of the pro version of this app? Thanks.
Alternative
By the way, i found this similar app in Playstore which is completely free. ) See attached.
It still requires a proxy to be able to connect the devices.
Unfortunately, I need an app that will repeat wifi without the need for a proxy, as the device I want to use it on has no options to enter proxy.
