HI all,
My phone specs -HTC Aria
Rooted , S -OFF
ROM : cm7.1 -- update-cm-7.1.0-Liberty-signed.zip
clockworkmod recovery v5.0.2
Android 2.3.7
I am trying to connect to wifi ad hoc from my win7 laptop(using connectify) to my phone.My laptop is connected to internet via LAN which is behind college proxy but Connectify successfully created wifi hotspot. Now problem is that my phone is able to detect the ad hoc network but has problem connecting , it gets stuck at "obtaining ip address...." .
What I tried after searching in forums?
As mentioned by a member I filled in some values in Advanced wifi settings and
filled out I.P Address(192.168.2.2) subnet (192.168.2.1) dns1 and dns2 after doing this my wifi went crazy, It connects & immediately disconnects continuously and this happens so on.
As mentioned in this forum http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=754961 I tried to flash the zip from recovery but i got this error :
Code:
Amend scripting (update-script) is no longer supported.
Amend scripting is deprecated by Google in Android 1.5.
It was necessary to remove it when upgrading to the ClockworkMod 3.0 Gingerbread based recovery.Please switch to Edify scripting (updater-script and update-binary) to create working update zip packages.
Installation aborted.
Next using Root Explorer I tried to replace the existing wpa_supplicant file located at /system/bin with the file given in this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=17582197&postcount=79, this time my wifi doesn't even detect the ad hoc network so I reverted it to old file. Basically I couldn't find anywhere wpa_supplicant file for Android 2.3.7.The most updated I got was for Android 2.3.5 version.
Also installed an app called Adhoc Wifi enabler but with no result.
I tried so hard but couldn't work it out , if any one done this before please help me here..
Thank you !!
How ad-hoc networks can be enabled this device?
I have tried two ways to enable Ad-Hoc networks on Android device, but no one work.
Replace wpa_supplicant with hacked variant is not work. After enabling Wi-Fi i see bootlogo and "restarted" Android. And this will loop, until i place original wpa_supplicant in /system/bin. I tried six hacked wpa_supplicant binaries.
And editing wpa_supplicant.conf is not work too, i don't know why.
Help me with this, please. I do not want to throw device in the trash, just because of defectiveness Android.
Hey guys,
I think this is the right place for this post.
I set up a pptp vpn server on my windows 7 machine which android says it is able to connect to when going through settings>wireless and network>vpn settings. When I use IPdroid the addresses indicate that I'm connected to the vpn. BUT, i cannot get any file manager (i.e. es file manager, file expert) to access the server.
ES Explorer's error message says, "May be caused by: WiFi is off, SMB server is out of network scope, the IP is invalid, Blocked by the firewall, SMB service is off."
I've tried both wifi on and off, both public and local ip addresses, ports and firewall have been configured properly according to the android vpn client.
I am not including a domain name. I'm running Siyah v2.6.13 and ICScrewD 2.1.
Anyone got any ideas?
Thanks.
Hi everybody,
I have an HTC Flyer P512 16GB wifi only, on Android 2.3.4, HTC Sense 1.0, softwarenumber 2.27.1114.32.
Now I want to access internet via my iPhone 3G A1241 16GB, which I Redsn0w jailbroke, and installed PDANet via Cydia.
I'm able to internet from my laptop via the wifi hotspot that I can now create with PDANet.
But for a reason I dont know, I can't seem to find any created wifi hotspots with my Flyer..
How come my laptop can access a wifi hotspot that I created with PDANet on my iPhone, but my Flyer can't?
I used search, but it must be a combination of; too specific & my lack of knowledge in this business ..
I really hope someone can steer me in the right direction!
Thanks in advance
Ok, I did some more research on the matter, I believe I now know I would need to root, SU, before being able to place an wpa_supplicant. Back up original. Turn WiFi off. Use Root Explorer to paste it into system/bin folder. Change the permissions on the file to rwxr-xr-x. Turn wifi back on. And it should show adhoc networks.
How am I doing?
If this is the right order, I still need to find out what root I should use, can anybody tell me that?
It is important to me that all the original buttons function, and I prefer no loss of options..
Appreciate it.
P'z
I now know I mixxed up roms with root in my previous post.
In the meanwhile I have S-off''ed my tablet.
I intended to install CWM along with it, but it displayed that it couldn't be done, and I should do it manually.
I'm now on a search for the specific method of installing CWM manually..if someone feels like jumping to my rescue, would be highly appreciated.
Oke, found this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=14693680
..but again, i am stuck ..the file the how t refers to (cwm-4.0.1.4-flyer.img) is no longer available at that address..
Have been searching for it on Google, as well as torrent sites..no luck..
Is there anyone who still has this file?
Don't know anything about using an iPhone as a hotspot. But you shouldn't have to root and do all that extra stuff to access a WiFi hotspot.
If using security on the WiFi hotspot, try a different type (WPA, WPA2, WEP). WEP in particular does not play well with many HTC devices (and not very secure anyway).
Thanks for your reply!
That's what my understanding was at first, but I tried several wifi apps next to my standard wifi, and what I can conclude is:
Standard wifi scan (via menu):
-can't detect my created hotspot
-can detect and connect with home wifi
WiFi Analyzer:
-can detect my created hotspot (with an AdHoc label, and when I try to connect it displays "Adhoc is not supported by Android platform yet!")
-can detect and connect with home wifi
WiFi Manager:
-can detect my created hotspot (with an AdHoc label, and when I try to connect it displays "Standard Android does not support connecting to IBSS (AdHoc) type networks")
-can detect and connect with home wifi
I read I would need to replace the wpa_supplicant file, but that can only be done once rooted..
Maybe someone has the following reuested file in his/her possesion?:
