Want to save power when WiFi Tethering... try WiFi TXpower. You can find it here:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=rubberbibpepper.WiFiTxPower
Solution for missing IWCONFIG file:
1. Download the first attachment "iwconfig.txt" (default save location is '/mnt/sdcard/download')
3. Open 'File Manager'
a. Select: 'Menu' -> 'More' -> 'Settings' -> scroll down paste 'donate' (which you should do!)
b. Select: Mark Yes for both checkbox options of "Root Explorer" & "Mount System Folders"
3. Navigate your path over to '/mnt/sdcard/download' and find & rename the file "iwconfig.txt" to 'iwconfig'
4. COPY the file, and navigate your path over to '/system/xbin' and PASTE the file. It may say it wasn't pasted, but scroll down and the file will be there.
5. Launch busybox 'terminal emulator' and type these two commands:
# su
# chmod 755 /system/xbin/iwconfig
6. Boot up WiFi TXpower and verify that the iwconfig error message is gone, and that you do not get a 'iwconfig' permissions error. You should see "iwconfig" and "eth0" titles and all the signal and power stats listed in the app. Lower numbers, less range, and greater batter life.
7. Enjoy! If this has helped you, please hit the "Thanks" button below.
Backstory:
Problem is, this app needs a file 'iwconfig' to be installed in '/system/xbin' and this directory is R/O (read-only, write protected). There are a few ways to do this;
adb push to install the file
Find an APP that will install iwconfig for you
Symlink the file if its somewhere else
Copy & Paste File yourself
I'm old school, so I like to have a hard copy of the file anywhere its needed, and at 30.4 KB, who cares. So following the 80% help link below, I downloaded the 'iwconfig.tar' file, extracted the internal file, and started trying to copy it into '/system/xbin'. From this same site, I used fragments of commands in the busybox 'terminal emulator' to finish the install after the file was copied into the directory. I used '# chmod 755' to set the permissions on the new file, so WiFi TXpower could use it.
"Quoted from:
# su
# cd /mnt/sdcard/download — (this assumes the download location of the file)
# tar –xf iwconfig.tar — (this was to extract the single file from inside the tar file)
# mount –o rw,remount /system — (I couldn't get this command to work, but you can try next line below instead)
# mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /system /system — ccdreadcc line of code, that looks like it would work, I received no terminal emulator errors when attempting.
# cp iwconfig /system/xbin — (Above didn't work, so I copy & paste this file in 'File Manager' as I couldn't get 'Root Explorer' to do it, it wouldn't R/W '/system')
# chmod 755 /system/xbin/iwconfig — (You will need this later to correctly set permissions on 'iwconfig', if you don't you will get a "permission denied" error in the WiFi TXpower App)
"

I am running on a rooted sprint samsung S3, the app continues to show::
iwconfig:
Unknown id: wlan0.
when I select 4dBm, there is no indication it worked. In terminal I run iwconfig, and it shows that the setting took effect! My stock power is 1496, which seems to be my max. Selecting 11dbm works, but 18, 25 and 32 do not. I am guessing my wifi adapter will not allow anything over 1496.
If I had iw and ifconfig on my device I could try this to force a higher speed:
ifconfig wlan0 down
iw reg set BO<--------------is an o not a 0
ifconfig wlan0 up
iwconfig wlan0 channel 13
iwconfig wlan0 txpower 30
any suggestions how to pull this off.. I can install this on a debian destro, but there's no point to that... if I can get the iw and ifconfig on my andriod OS, maybe I can force it higher than 1496...
Tried this.. Surprisingly, it's also working on my Nexus 7 (2012) too..
Not that is requires wireless extensions.
Code:
[email protected]:/data/data/bcmon/misc $ ./iwconfig
lo no wireless extensions.
svnet0 no wireless extensions.
ifb0 no wireless extensions.
ifb1 no wireless extensions.
sit0 no wireless extensions.
ip6tnl0 no wireless extensions.
wlan0 no wireless extensions.
In last Samsung Aries kernel, it's one of these:
Code:
CONFIG_WIRELESS=y
CONFIG_WIRELESS_EXT=y
CONFIG_WEXT_CORE=y
CONFIG_WEXT_PROC=y
CONFIG_WEXT_SPY=y
CONFIG_WEXT_PRIV=y
CONFIG_CFG80211_WEXT=y
CONFIG_WIRELESS_EXT_SYSFS=y
iwconfig has no effect on tx-power
This is great, thank you.
Unfortunately, when I followed all the instructions, got the iwconfig file from this thread, renamed it, successfully put it into system/xbin/, and then ran "iwconfig wlan0 txpower 2dBm" and then "iwconfig wlan0" the tx-power level is unchanged. It is still listed as 19 dBm. There's no error message.
Any ideas?
Does the "iwconfig [interface] txpower" command need to be run in a certain manner for it to have effect?
(I'm running a nightly build of Cyanogenmod 11 on a Moto G 4G.)
Yes, it's works on SGS4 i9506 4.4.2 after install iwconfig/iwmulticall. The signal is really changing, I see it when checking with other devices.
"iwconfig" shows txpower=31dbm for wlan0 (on other devices - S3, S5 and Tab - it shows 1496dbm)
I send command "iwconfig wlan0 txpower %%" with different values, but only 4, 11, 18, 25 and 31 works (yes, the last is not 32).
How can i increase it for better signal?
sorry for my english!
Thanks
Also I tried this:
iwconfig wlan0 sens -90
but
SET failed on device wlan0 ; Operation not supported on transport endpoint.
Is it needs orher diriver for wifi?
it doesn't work on lollipop
any ideas how to make it work on lollipop

Answering my own question:
You see this error because android doesnt want you to run old binaries on new version of system (as google explains, if I got the idea correctly)
To rebuild the binaries for new system is pretty complicated, so you can just fool the system by changing 17th byte in current (not working) binary file
Open some hex editor (online version for example: hexed.it), find the 17th byte (counting from 1, as humans do) and change it from 02 to 03
This byte (as I now see) is the first byte on 2nd string in the hex editor
Good luck
Try to edit, but the result "Segmentation Fault" :3

I have compiled tun.ko for the Nook color.
Here are the instructions to get OpenVPN up and running.
I dont have a fully working OpenVPN server to test this completely but I was able to connect and get authenticated. If someone can test this out and report whether this works that would be useful.
Download tun.ko module from here
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/16190398/tun.ko
Type the following from your windows or linux console
adb shell
#mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/mmcblk0p5 /system
#su
#cd /system/lib
#mkdir modules (if it doesnt exist)
#exit
#exit
Now you are back at your windows or linux prompt
adb push tun.ko /system/lib/modules
adb shell
#su
#insmod /system/lib/modules/tun.ko
If everything works fine you should see no errors
#lsmod
You should see something like this
tun 11416 0 - Live 0xbf153000
#exit
#exit
So far so good.
Now go to the Android Market and download
1. busybox (if not already installed)
2. OpenVPN Installer
3. OpenVPN Settings
Run the OpenVPN Installer first. It will detect that OpenVPN binary is not installed and ask permission to install. You can choose to install it in /system/xbin or /system/bin (I installed it under /system/bin).
OpenVPN also needs the path to ifconfig and route which is provided by busybox. It will ask for the path and create symlinks. I created mine under /system/xbin/bb.
Next copy your openvpn config files and .crt files under /sdcard/openvpn.
Finally, run OpenVPN settings. If you have a valid config file under /sdcard/openvpn you should see those connections listed.
From the advanced menu you can set the path to your tunnel module as /system/lib/modules/tun.ko and load the module using modprobe.
Set the path to your configuration files (default is /sdcard/openvpn).
If everything looks fine then go back to main screen and click the checkbox next to your listed connection.
You should get a login icon in the notification bar if your connection requires username/password.
Thats it. Browse your internal network to check if everything is working as desired.
I just had a baby a few weeks ago and dont have time to troubleshoot this.
If someone can take over and post better/detailed instructions on making this work that would be great.
---------- 05/06/2011 Update -------------
Updated version of tun.ko for the 1.2 update. This for for kernel version 2.6.32.9.
In order to connect to Cisco/Freeswan VPN concentrators you can download VPNconnections from here. The instructions are quite straightforward and listed on the project page. http://code.google.com/p/get-a-robot-vpnc/
You will need to load tun.ko for both openvpn and VPNConnections.
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/16190398/Nook Color 1.2/tun.ko
Thanks for the step-by-step guide on this, I can confirm that it does work as expected. I was able to connect to an OpenVPN server and route traffic properly over it. One more damn device that ties me to work now, wooh!
At my work we use a Cisco VPN. On my phone I use an app called VPN Connections. I loaded the module and instead of using the open vpn I used the apk mentioned above. But it didn't work. Does the OpenVPN support Cisco vpns?

Probably your tun.ko module is not loaded.
Did you set the path to tun.ko from OpenVPN settings ?
Can you use adb shell and
type
#insmod /system/lib/modules/tun.ko
then
#lsmod
and report what you see.

OpenVPN client wont work with Cisco's VPN. They use different protocols.
However, VPN Connections is supposed to be compatible with Cisco/FreeSwan and other IPSec VPNs.
I havent used VPNConnections but if there is any option to load the tun module then you can try setting the path and loading the module.
I would suggest that you first try loading the tun.ko module manually using adb shell. Then run VPN Connections and maybe it will work

This is good. Make sure that you set the path as the full path to the module as
/system/lib/modules/tun.ko in OpenVPN settings. (Yea path is a little misleading)
The error is due to openvpn not finding the path to ifconfig and route which is required to set the IP address for the tun device and push the default routes.
Did you install busybox ?. If not then you should install that.
If you already installed busybox then do this
adb shell
#mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/mmcblk0p5 /system
#su
#which busybox
This should return /system/bin/busybox
Under /system/bin you should also find ifconfig and route which are essentially symlinks to busybox
Now navigate to the /system/xbin directory
#cd /system/xbin
#mkdir bb (if it doesnt exist)
#cd /system/bin
#cp ifconfig /system/xbin/bb
#cp route /system/xbin/bb
#cd /system/xbin/bb
# ./ifconfig
This should return some details about the tiwlan0 interface.
#exit
#exit
Try again and see if this works. If not you can run the OpenVPN installer again.
Shouldnt matter if you already ran it once before.
Set the path for the openvpn binary as /system/bin &
the path for ifconfig as /system/xbin/bb
Hopefully this should do the trick.
Hmm. I can't get this to work with VPN Connections either. lsmod says the module is loaded, but VPN Connections fails. I won't have time to look at this for a week or so, but if anyone has VPN Connections working with this tun.ko, that would be good to know.
well I'm getting somewhere it now connects and it seems to be passing data ...but I'm only getting a connection of 0.09kBps up and 0.06kBps down

Just to clarify, "VPN Connections" is an Android VPN client that can connect to a Cisco IPSEC VPN concentrator. It works well for me on my DROID.

Hi. This sounds awesome. I am trying to get vpn since i left my laptop at home and my captivate is too small to do basic work.
I can't seem to dload the above but no go for dolphin or google browser.
Can someone post a mirror?
Edit: got it... couldn't get w the browsers and rockplayer seemed to want to play it. Used ie and got it ok.
I would love to hear if anyone else has had any success with alwaysVPN. I can connect but just can't seem to get any data ...

I recall that I had the same issue initially. I was able to get connected but not browse the internal network. The monitor would show a connection of 0.09Kbps.
I think this means that the initial handshake went through but the server was not able to push the ip address or the default routes.
When you get connected you should see a status which progresses as
Auth - > Get Config -> and finally connected to "server IP" as "your new IP address". If you dont see your new IP address then the connection is not fully functional.
A rather unscientific method to fix it which worked for me was
1.) Uninstall busybox
2.) Reinstall busybox
3.) Run OpenVPN Installer again
set path to Openvpn binary as /system/bin
set path to ifconfig as /system/xbin/bb
adb to /system/xbin/bb and check if ifconfig and route exists.
Reboot, do a minor rain dance and pray to the God of your choice while the Nook is rebooting.
So just to let everyone know I got VPN Connections working for my work's Cisco VPN. I did the steps outlined at first, downloaded the file, insmod the file, added openvpn and settings apps, then tried my vpn connections app but it wouldn't work. So I gave up. Two days later I tried it for fun after I had rebooted it many times and it worked! I haven't done a insmod command and I have uninstalled the two OpenVPN commands

I was also able to get "VPN Connections" aka vpnc, working using this method.
Am now able to connect to my Cisco ASA, thanks for the great post.
My NookColor has been all of the sudden playing a load static noise when it is off and the only way to stop it is to turn it off. So I reset everything back to stock 1.0.1 and I will wait and see if it does it without it being rooted. If so I will get a different unit. But in the next week or two I will root it again and see if I need to install OpenVPN or not.

I think just 1.
I had "vpn connections" installed. I then follow the instructions at the beginning of this thread. I stopped at "Next copy your openvpn config files and .crt files under /sdcard/openvpn" since I wasn't interested in using openvpn.
I then rebooted, launched "vpn connections" and it connected.
I cannot however get the vpnc widget to work.
I was looking up the partition layout of the Galaxy S III while I stumbled upon this problem.
The first time you run a command in 'adb shell' everything is fine, but when you try to run a second command, it just hangs. It doesn't crash, it just hangs.
So, I tried to find out what could be wrong, by doing the following: Instead of going into the shell itself, I just entered a semi-random command 'adb shell mount', which returned the normal result.
Then, I typed 'adb shell' and guess what? It returns a commonly known error: 'error: protocol fault (status 72 6f 6f 74?!)'
The status code is HEX, which translates to: 'error: protocol fault (status root?!)'
So I suppose this has something to do with the fact that my SGS3 is rooted.
I don't feel like unrooting it, but if someone would be so kind to test this on an unrooted SGS3 and report back the results here so we can investigate this further that would be greatly appreciated.
it works without any error.
do you know what to backup which contains kernel and ramdisk ?

Have you tried multiple shell commands? I know adb functions, but it's about using adb shell.
I'm on the stock rom, rooted manually with CF's insecure kernel by the way.
I'm not sure this is related, but there is some very suspicious new functionality in the FactoryTest.apk, called "SysScope". Its some kind of service checking and verifying the authenticity of "something". But I have no idea of what, only that a related java file (ResultCode.class [sysscope.service] contain the following code segment:
Code:
[SIZE=2] arrayOfResultCode[0] = OK;
arrayOfResultCode[1] = ADB_RUNNING_AS_ROOT;
arrayOfResultCode[2] = PARTITION_TAMPERED;
arrayOfResultCode[3] = ROOT_PROCESS_FOUND;
arrayOfResultCode[4] = DANGEROUS_FILE_DETECTED;
arrayOfResultCode[5] = NOT_OFFICIAL_BINARY;
[/SIZE]
Then it looks for SysScope files in the SysScopeVerifyer.class like this:
Code:
[SIZE=2]/data/app/com.sec.android.app.sysscope-1.apk
/data/app/com.sec.android.app.sysscope-2.apk[/SIZE]
I suggest you to back these up, and then replace them, with empty files of the same name, and see what happens.

Hello, I was given a Gtablet by a friend. Everything is in proper working order except for the wifi. The wifi will endlessly scan, never pulling up any SSIDs. Here's what I've done to troubleshoot:
Ascertained flight mode was off (it was)
Enabled wifi through the developer options (Did nothing)
Manually enter SSID/Security information (Claims that SSID is not in range)
Reloaded the OS (He had VEGAn Tab on there. I reloaded the 5.1 Beta. I don't know what version he had on there, oops.)
After a clean install I have the exact same issue, which leads me to believe it is a hardware issue rather than a software issue. Is this common? Am I forgetting something? Would loading an entirely different ROM be of any use or do they also use the same driver?
My apologies if this has been answered previously, but in all my searching I can only find people who have this problem temporarily; a reboot fixes it for them. I haven't been able to find someone who has had this as a persistent issue.

I'll have to look at some logs to ascertain what your WiFi problem is.
Run the commands in this post (after rebooting the tablet) and then post the text files that're created.

Thanks, see attached are the logs as per request. As a side note, now that I have the terminal emulator on there I tried a few commands I dug up on the internet after I looked over the logs.
Code:
$ su
# ifconfig tiwlan0 up
# ifconfig eth0 up
Both gave an error message
Code:
error: SIOCGIFFLAGS (No such device)
Also
Code:
# svc wifi enable
did not solve my issues. Oh well.

The wireless LAN interface name on the gTab is wlan0. Hence your error messages: "No such device" for the ifnames tiwlan0 and eth0. (The latter would work for the ethernet I/F on the dock--if you had one connected.)

1. You have to look at the Android system logs (using logcat) to see the result of that svc command.
2. Your Android logs indicate that your WiFi interface is a) disabled at startup and b) then not enabled thereafter:
Code:
01-07 23:21:10.429 V/ConnectivityService( 990): Starting Wifi Service.
01-07 23:21:10.429 I/WifiService( 990): WifiService starting up with Wi-Fi [B]disabled[/B]
Suggestions:
Since this now looks like a ROM problem (ie. not HW):
1. See this thread. Run the script to disable Airplane Mode which might be causing your problem. If that doesn't work, try step 2:
2. Boot into CWM and then a) Format /cache and b) Repartition the Internal SD card (take the external one out first).
You'll lose all your current apps and data with this step, essentially reverting to a "fresh" install of your ROM.
Re-setup WiFi, time & date and other things again.
If step 2. doesn't work, report back next year, and I'll give you more commands to run then.

Negative. Ran the airplane fix script, nothing. Reset cache/re-partitioned, still nothing. It's still endlessly scanning/shutting off/scanning.

This is puzzling because from your last logs, it doesn't look like the wlan kernel driver was even loaded, so no AP scanning should be possible. A little background will clarify what I mean.
On all the 2.6.32.x kernels for the gTablet, the wlan driver is not compiled into the kernel. Instead, it is built as a separate kernel module which is loaded and unloaded as needed by Android (from the files in /system/lib/hw/wlan/). When the wlan driver is loaded both the kernel (dmesg) and Android (logcat) will show some characteristic messages and until the driver is inserted into the kernel no AP scanning, or other wireless functions, should be possible. And, no wlan driver-related messages in your logs tells me that the driver was likely not loaded. (Also, only after the wlan driver is loaded does it check and initialize the wireless HW. So, only after its been loaded, strictly speaking, can we rule out a HW problem.)
Sometimes the Android logs are not complete, so I want to you setup ADB on your PC, enable USB debugging on the gTablet (Setting > Applications > Development) and collect the Android logs like this from now on:
1. Power off gTab; attach the USB cable to it.
2. Open a CMD.exe window on the PC, then run this command (and keep the window minimized):
Code:
C:\> [B]adb logcat -v time > logcat.txt[/B]
After all the tests/commands have been done, restore this window and press Ctrl-C to kill ADB and terminate Android log collection.
3. Power on the gTablet. The ADB command will wait for the gTablet and keep collecting logs on the PC.
Post also the output of these commands:
Code:
C:\> [B]adb shell dmesg > dmesg.txt[/B]
C:\> [B]adb shell lsmod > lsmod.txt[/B]
C:\> [B]adb shell "cd /; find system -type f -print0 | xargs -0 sha1sum" > sha1sum.txt[/B]
Is this the ROM you currently have?
Have you applied the VEGAn 1.00 beta 5.1.1 supplement also?

That was the current ROM I was using. I had not applied the supplement yet, but now I have. Still the same issue. Here are the logs.

In this one I can see the kernel WiFi driver being loaded, and the driver is not reporting any HW chip, SDIO bus, or other errors:
Code:
<4>[ 23.485281] sdio_reset_comm():

<4>[ 23.907109] Dongle Host Driver, version 4.218.223.1
As far as the kernel driver is concrned, everything looks OK, but the Android logs still don't show any SSID associations.
What're the exact outputs of these commands? (You can post a screenshot. Mask the psk= value from the 1st output, if present)

See attached. Ignore my syntax errors that I underlined. I was typing wlan instead of wlan0.

Those are OK since you've corrected them. But, these commands you'll have to redo:
1. In the first command (fgrep ... | tr), you've typed a '/' (forward slash) instead of what I've given in the example, which is a '\' (back-slash) character.
The correct character will remove all those blank lines. But, this is a minor typo compared to:
2. The last 2 commands (wpa_cli scan* ...), which you'll have to redo. This time without the extraneous driver argument (again, see the example)--which turns it into a completely different (and non-existent) command. This is why the output doesn't look like what I've shown.
Instead of typing the commands in manually, select and copy the command lines from the browser and paste them into the shell window.
You might also want to increase the no. of columns that CMD.exe displays: Right-click on the title-bar; choose Properties; select Layout; increase the no. of Columns to, let's say, 150.
3. That dmesg.txt file is not very useful because you've not rebooted the tablet before issuing that command.
The kernel has a fixed-size message buffer, so all the HW initialization messages printed only at system boot will be overwritten by later, and irrelevent, messages as time passes. From the timestamps, it looks like your tablet's been on for a couple of weeks, at least--I can't see any of the earlier boot-up messages.
Dear sir,
I have Sony SL, actually i have a problem with wifi as inserting sim card. I read many topics to find that is a common issue.
Some member has a fix. I fllowed their instruction but to no avail.
As i run the script, this happen :
Error resolving interpreter: /bin/sh does not exist
Using default shell
Exec sh '/sdcard/fix_country_code'
Fix_country_code'
Error: unable to open database "/data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db": unable to open database file
Killed
Killed
Orginally posted by DKTigra:
I wrote a short script (tried to run as init.d - but it has no sense as country code is beeing read from simcard when all init.d scripts are finished), so i used free Script Manager - SManager (https://play.google.com/store/apps/d....scriptmanager) to launch script after boot.
That's script code (just changed wifi_country_code location):
Code:
#!/bin/sh
sleep 10
sqlite3 /data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db "INSERT INTO global (name, value) VALUES ('wifi_country_code', 'EU');"
svc wifi disable
sleep 10
svc wifi enable
Also i've added sleep for 10 seconds for ensure that sim data is already read, and added wifi down - sleep - wifi up for reestablish network connection (as i'm using n/g network for old devices, so Nexus is connected in g-mode to my router when script is executed).
Instruction:
1. Download sqlite3 binary from any source (I've got it from xda http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...29&postcount=2) and move it to /system/xbin, set permissions 755 (rwx-rx-rx)
2. Save script to internal SD-card, f.e. as "fix_country_code.sh",
3. Install script-manager, that is able to run scripts on boot, and set to execute script with root rights (like on screenshot if SManager is used). Also it's possible to test script w/o reboot
Please help me

Well, i struggled for half a day relentlessly and finally got Reaver Working on my Xiaomi Mi4 android phone with a big help from the below mentioned link , everything is going good and fine, i got the Reaver app working on my Rooted app without bcmon and it worked and i'm ready to hack the network but just as i bypassed "Test Monitor" successfully(by loading a few scripts and debugging) and hit "Start Attack" this thing showed up, below i've written down the issue as it appeared since i'm not allowed to post screenshots & Links untill i make 10 posts(i'm a new user) and the scripts that i used to bypass Test Monitor are attached below, i'm basically a noob but good at technical things, the guide mentioned in the below link isn't as easy as it is told there, there are a few more steps that aren't added in the guide!!
HELP URGENTLY!!!! I waisted a whole day trying to get it working, i'd be so grateful :laugh: if you could help me out with it! PLEASE!! :crying:
Here are those scripts i loaded and put the phone on debug mode
Custom activation script:
#!/bin/bash
svc wifi disable
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/data/data/com.bcmon.bcmon/files/libs
LD_PRELOAD=/data/data/com.bcmon.bcmon/files/libs/libfake_driver.so sh

.//start.sh[5]: cd: /data/data/com.bcmon.bcmon/files/tools : No Such File or Directory
./start.sh[6]: ./enable_bcmon : not found
2. and then this happened in the processing window
sh: <stdin>[3]: sh: not found
CANNOT LINK EXECUTABLE: could not load library "libcap.so.1" needed by "./reaver"; caused by library "libcap.so.1" not found
3. and finally when i hit stop, this message showed up
Stdout:
?rfasuccess?
StdErr:
Control the Wi-fi manager
usage: svc wifi[enable[disable]
Turn Wi-Fi on or off
svc wifi prefer
Set Wi-Fi as the preferred data network
These are the Steps i followed to get the monitoring mode done.
1.Download bcmon- (link)
2.Save the app on your sdcard but don’t install it.
3.download Reaver apk(RFA) and install it.- (link)
4.Download root explorer by speed speed software and install it.- (link)
6.Install and open bcmon app
keep it open for 5s and then press home.
(This will surely create a com.bcmon.bcmon folder in/Data/data)
7.Open root explorer and browse to the bcmon apk.
8.Select it and press view.
9.Open assets.
10.Copy all the files to /Data/data/com.bcmon.bcmon/files.
#If any file or folder of the same name is found then delete it#
/Now you’ll have to add custom scripts that I have given below(just copy them in a note editor and save with a .sh extension)
Start script-
Start script- mentioned above in custom start script
Warm script- mentioned above in custom warm up script
Stop script- mentioned above in custom stop script
#Now open root explorer
Browse to com.bcmon.bcmon/files/tools/reaver
Long press on it and press permissions and then check the execute boxes(all 3).now click OK.
Now in tools long press enable_bcmon and give it execute rights (all 3).now click OK .
#All set….now open reaver and scan for networks press on one with green color and with a good range.
Go to settings and monitor mode setting and unchek the use bcmon and load all the scripts properly.
#while loading scripts start.sh is the activation script,warm.sh is the warm up script and stop.sh is the stop script. #
Now scroll down and check the debugging mode.
#Go back to the attack screen and press test monitor mode.
Rfasuccess comes then press OK and press start attack.
#All done,now wait until it finds the routers key for you.
#This worked on my I ball slide 6318i,Alcatel ot 918n and redmi note.

Same here pal!
The person who posted this method is my frnd on FB , whenever I tried to connect he ignored my text.
Stucked at the same..
So I was having the same error as the couple people above me, but I was able to get Reaver to recognize where my files were. I moved it off of the SD card to: /data/data/com.bcmon.bcmon
Then I manually typed in the location path of my .sh files:
/data/data/com.bcmon.bcmon/start.sh
/data/data/com.bcmon.bcmon/warm.sh
/data/data/com.bcmon.bcmon/stop.sh
Obviously you'll want to put in whatever you named those files there.
So I've gotten past that hurtle. I am however stuck with this new set of errors now, although it will allow me to progress to "start attack".
I'm new so the site is preventing me from posting these links normally but here are the two errors I'm getting:

Libcap.so.1 error please sort it out soon..
Does anyone managed to solve this?
Your scripts shebang points to /bin/bash you could try changing to #!/system/bin/sh which should hopefully solve the sh not found error. More recent android versions force pie executables as a tool to help lower hack risks, the option there is to try to bypass pie systemwide or get a pie executable. Libcap error is due to the file not being present I'm not sure if your app is supposed to include it but it's not a standard android library.

Well, i struggled for half a day relentlessly and finally got Reaver Working on my Xiaomi Mi4 android phone with a big help from the below mentioned link , everything is going good and fine, i got the Reaver app working on my Rooted app without bcmon and it worked and i'm ready to hack the network but just as i bypassed "Test Monitor" successfully(by loading a few scripts and debugging) and hit "Start Attack" this thing showed up, below i've written down the issue as it appeared since i'm not allowed to post screenshots & Links untill i make 10 posts(i'm a new user) and the scripts that i used to bypass Test Monitor are attached below, i'm basically a noob but good at technical things, the guide mentioned in the below link isn't as easy as it is told there, there are a few more steps that aren't added in the guide!!
HELP URGENTLY!!!! I waisted a whole day trying to get it working, i'd be so grateful :laugh: if you could help me out with it! PLEASE!! :crying:
Here are those scripts i loaded and put the phone on debug mode
Custom activation script:
#!/bin/bash
svc wifi disable
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/data/data/com.bcmon.bcmon/files/libs
LD_PRELOAD=/data/data/com.bcmon.bcmon/files/libs/libfake_driver.so sh
cd /data/data/com.bcmon.bcmon/files/tools
./enable_bcmon
echo “rfasuccess”
exit
Custom Warm-up Script
#!/bin/bash
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/data/data/com.bcmon.bcmon/files/libs
LD_PRELOAD=/data/data/com.bcmon.bcmon/files/libs/libfake_driver.so sh
cd /data/data/com.bcmon.bcmon/files/tools
Custom stop Script:
#!/bin/bash
svc wifi enable
echo “rfasuccess”
1. this happened first but i continued anyway.
Stdout:
"rfa success"
StdErr:
Control the Wifi manager
usage: svc wifi [enable[disable] Turn wifi on or off.
svc wifi prefer
set Wifi as the preferred data network
.//srart.shl[4]: sh :not found
.//start.sh[5]: cd: /data/data/com.bcmon.bcmon/files/tools : No Such File or Directory
./start.sh[6]: ./enable_bcmon : not found
2. and then this happened in the processing window
sh: <stdin>[3]: sh: not found
CANNOT LINK EXECUTABLE: could not load library "libcap.so.1" needed by "./reaver"; caused by library "libcap.so.1" not found
3. and finally when i hit stop, this message showed up
Stdout:
?rfasuccess?
StdErr:
Control the Wi-fi manager
usage: svc wifi[enable[disable]
Turn Wi-Fi on or off
svc wifi prefer
Set Wi-Fi as the preferred data network
These are the Steps i followed to get the monitoring mode done.
1.Download bcmon- (link)
2.Save the app on your sdcard but don’t install it.
3.download Reaver apk(RFA) and install it.- (link)
4.Download root explorer by speed speed software and install it.- (link)
6.Install and open bcmon app
keep it open for 5s and then press home.
(This will surely create a com.bcmon.bcmon folder in/Data/data)
7.Open root explorer and browse to the bcmon apk.
8.Select it and press view.
9.Open assets.
10.Copy all the files to /Data/data/com.bcmon.bcmon/files.
#If any file or folder of the same name is found then delete it#
/Now you’ll have to add custom scripts that I have given below(just copy them in a note editor and save with a .sh extension)
Start script-
Start script- mentioned above in custom start script
Warm script- mentioned above in custom warm up script
Stop script- mentioned above in custom stop script
#Now open root explorer
Browse to com.bcmon.bcmon/files/tools/reaver
Long press on it and press permissions and then check the execute boxes(all 3).now click OK.
Now in tools long press enable_bcmon and give it execute rights (all 3).now click OK .
#All set….now open reaver and scan for networks press on one with green color and with a good range.
Go to settings and monitor mode setting and unchek the use bcmon and load all the scripts properly.
#while loading scripts start.sh is the activation script,warm.sh is the warm up script and stop.sh is the stop script. #
Now scroll down and check the debugging mode.
#Go back to the attack screen and press test monitor mode.
Rfasuccess comes then press OK and press start attack.
#All done,now wait until it finds the routers key for you.
#This worked on my I ball slide 6318i,Alcatel ot 918n and redmi note.

Possible Fix for libcap.so.1 problem
By moving "libcap.so.1", "libsqlite3.so.0" from "/data/data/com.bcmon.bcmon/files/libs" to "/system/lib" and setting the wifi-interface in the "Monitor-Mode settings" to "wlan0". I was able to solve the "libcap.so.1" error.
Straight afterwards, I got the "<stdin>[3] : not found" error.
By changing the "start.sh" script from :
Code:
#!/bin/bash
svc wifi disable
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/data/data/com.bcmon.bcmon/files/libs
LD_PRELOAD=/data/data/com.bcmon.bcmon/files/libs/libfake_driver.so sh
cd /data/data/com.bcmon.bcmon/files/tools
./enable_bcmon
echo “rfasuccess”
exit
--to--
Code:
#!/bin/bash
svc wifi enable
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/data/data/com.bcmon.bcmon/files/libs
LD_PRELOAD=/data/data/com.bcmon.bcmon/files/libs/libfake_driver.so sh
cd /data/data/com.bcmon.bcmon/files/tools
./enable_bcmon
echo “rfasuccess”
exit
I was able to pass the "<stdin>[3] : not found" error but now it is stuck on "Waiting for beacon from <Mac Address here>".
I've tried multiple router and waited around 15 minutes on that screen for each router with my phone next to them but it will not get pass that line.

script errors
start.sh, warm.sh and stop.sh are not functioning properly, I am stuck at the same stage as you are and a can't even run the scripts on the terminal emulator.
I have tried granting permissions to the scripts but is is giving errors, if you enable "debug mode", you will see that not even one command is being issued without errors.

No app in market that can hack wifi password.
Don't waste time.
New wifi routers have WPA 2PSK highest security current time. To crack this type of password may take 2 mintues to many of years depend on which type of character and length have been chosen. All the procedure of cracking password done on linux platform.
In my opinion there are lots of apps on playstore are fake promising to crack wifi password.
Because wifi wpa2psk generate new reandoms keys with 24 or more characters changes with time to time (2-5 sec). And this keys doesn't not save in android in any way. So, how can you say this app hack wifi passwords.
If wifi router has WEP protected security then it can be easily cracked in 2 min any password.
