[Solved]Hotspot problem on FXP CM10 - Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A

Hi,there.
As title,the hotspot on my mini pro doesn't work though the changelog said it was fixed.
The problem is that my laptop and my neoV could connect it,but both were unable to access the Internet.
I even tested it on CM7/CM9 and the hotspot worked well.
I did search here and FXP website,however,I don't see any solutions.
Does anyone experience the same issue?
Thanks in advance.

No reply means that I'm the only one suffering this issue?:crying:
BTW,this problem still exists even when I'm using FXP206 CM10.

I always use the kernel inside FXP's zip file.
So,may I ask which phone you are using?And the device connecting your phone could access the Internet?
Since my hotspot works fine when I use other roms like CM7/CM9 and stock.

Solved.I think I found the root cause.
My phone's hotspot function is limited because I am required to access the Internet via a specific proxy provided by our carrier.
Therefore I need to set additional settings on my laptop and neoV while connecting my phone.And now,yes,they both work well.:laugh:
My apologies for my stupid question.
Hmm...the weird thing is that I don't need the additional settings when using other roms.

its ok dude , i know that feel , im still newbie too
we're never learn without making mistake

when I turn hotspot on, it disable the wifi
Hi!
I use CM 9 on sony live walkman. Default kernel.
I do not use proxy, but when I active the hotspot, my cell phone disable the wifi.
So, when hotspot is turned on, I can connect with my notebook... but (of course) can't access the internet...
And If I turn on (again) the wifi, it automaticaly disable the hotspot...
Does anyone knows how to solve that?
Thanks a lot!

If I can only get help with getting Open Garden to work or perhaps reconfigure the adhoc or wifi settings, I will be so glad. I am sort of kind of used to the gps issue and working from all the posts and things I can search for but the Open garden is critical cause I have a galaxy tab 10.1 and rely heavily on the ability to tether my phone to the tablet. It did work on CM 7 but this ROM Is NICE and I would just love to have this work on ICS Passion, please help , much appreciated

ICS Passion has a built-in mobile hotspot feature. You can access it at System Settings > Wireless & Networks (More...) > Tethering & portable hotspot

Is that feature free?
If you are looking for a 3rd party wifi tethering solution that requires root access to run, you can give Barnacle a try Here

I have barnacle and Open Garden and Wifi tether. I was able to only get wifi tether working versus the other two because the other two operate in adhoc mode and they (the other two) do not have the ability for an end user to change the phone profile. Even though I am using a Vibrant, I had to change the profile in "Wifi tether" to Samsung Nexus and the problems went away
Thanks for you input

[Q] Wifi tether on my X10 infrastructure mode?

First off, my laptop works fine with my phone's ad-hoc tether, but i want to use internet on my psp and vita later down the road as well when i need it, but i can't find any way to tether my X10 other than in ad-hoc mode, which is not supported by most consoles/handhelds.
i found a few guides but it wouldn't work. Would either not broadcast anything or do ad-hoc mode with various apps.
Any way to tether X10 in infrastructure mode instead of ad-hoc?
Ok, so i tried everything and only phone's native tether (under settings, stock ROM latest updates) gives infrastructure, or at least what seems like it, problem arises when i want to access internet and get DNS server error... there are pretty much no settings to mess with there so i am at a loss really. USB tether gives no internet to my laptop either over the native tether under settings.
wireless tether for root users does however work perfectly, but only in ad-hoc mode. The beta version people use on different phones (change device profile select one of the master methods and go) to get infrastructure instead of ad-hoc doesn't work at all, i haven't tried all profiles but on few i tried even though app says tether is on no devices see it, SSID broadcast set to ON.
So any ideas? Could it be provider nonsense? i bought it second hand and it seems to have been unlocked from Orange, but ROM doesn't seem to have all the bloatware from Orange(just news and traffic pretty much) without that I wouldn't even have noticed that it is from Orange.
Would flashing a different ROM help? could it be Orange's ROM is blocking it? Otherwise i might need a new phone
Android isn't able to detect ad-hoc network. There is a program called "connectify" to make discoverable version of ad-hoc for android devices

I want to tether my ps vita and my laptop to my SE xperia X10. i use tether app on my phone to share phone's internet with my console and laptop when i am not home.
also on my laptop i got intel's my wifi app that allows me to rebeam/share internet which is sufficient for my need on my laptop, though thanks for the tip
problem is making my phone tether in infrastructure and not ad-hoc mode. i gone in as much depth as i can about it in the last post, though if you need any more info i'd be glad to provide it if it would help to find a solution...
It is just a stock Xperia X10 with all official updates and rooted... 2.3.3android 2,1,71baseband.
would using a different rom help?

[ROM] Wolfs TW Gingerbread | Feel the difference | V7b6 [stable] | 03/12/2011
^ This rom supports infrastructure mode tethering.
I am in the same boat as you friend but I want a different custom rom. I have upgraded my touchpad to ICS which has no support for ad-hoc networks.
I was using the stock rom above for awhile which supported infrastructure mode which was working perfectly but in my world I want to stick with Miui on my x10.
I updated the wifi teather app on the miui rom to the newest one and was playing with the different setting for different devices. I was able to get the tether app to start in master mode with some of the settings for other devices but I was never able to get the touchpad to fully connect to one of these networks. I had it connect briefly when I put a static ip matching the settings on the wifi tether app but it would not make any internet connection.
If we have the ability in a stock rom, why can't it be ported?

[Q] "No network connectivity" using built-in tether methods

Hi Everyone,
First of all, I DID search on the forums for this same issue and I didn't find any solution.
So here is my problem:
I have an Atrix w/ 4.5.91 stock ROM (unlocked/rooted). Modified settings.db so Entitlement Check is set to 0. My carrier is Personal Argentina.
I can enable wifi and usb tethering but none of those would work. I get "no internet connectivity" on my Windows 7 computer with both of them, no matter what I do. BUT if I use a third-party app like EasyTether, it works like a charm.
I usually don't like installing 3rdparty apps/drivers on my work laptop, so my question is: Is there any way of troubleshoot this issue / did this happen to anyone? Is there anything I can change to make it work?
Thank you a lot!

Try android tether. Nothing to install on laptop. http://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether/. Only problem I found on hubby's new epic 4g touch is after turning it off, wifi wont work again which is solved by a reboot.

Thank you. I'll check it out but sitll USB would be a great option whenever I have to save battery.
Apart from that I'd really like to know why the native apps for tethering are not working. Maybe they use a different method?
Try setting the entitlement check to "disabled" with no quotes. That's how mine worked..

[Q] Wireless hotspot / tethering

Hi,
Just a question that I can't find an answer to anywhere, does anyone else experience the following.
When I enable tethering or wireless hotspot the other device/s that connect get internet access, but my phone has no internet access itself, so I don't get email and can't use internet reliant apps at the same time. As soon as I enable tethering/wireless hotspot the phone has no internet access.
The main reason I ask this and don't think it is meant to happen is because a friend of mine has a Galaxy SII and he can use the internet on his device whilst other devices are tethered.
Does anyone else experience this, does anyone know of a solution if it is not support to do this.
Cheers
Jon
It works on my device. What rom are you using?
If you're using CM10 or a kang of CM10 tethering doesn't work buddy....

I have heard of T-mobile charging extras for thetering but your situation seems different. Hopefully someone will help you otherwise try searching "T-mobile thetering" or such on your device's forum and try to make an idea of what's going on. good luck.
edited...i didn't read "UK" and directed you to the US T-mobile forum....

[Q] [Xperia P] Wifi Portable Hotspot not working after JB update?

Hi people,
I recently upgraded my SXP from rooted ICS 6.1.1.B.1.75 to Pre-rooted JB 6.2.A.0.400 ( found thanks to this thread ).
Everything went well, and the new version seemed to work, until i realized that the Wifi Hotspot function isn't working anymore (i used it everyday on ICS).
Also, tethering via Bluetooth doesn't seem to work.
My SXP wifi network is seen and I can connect onto it, but then nothing happens and there's no way to use the phone's data connection from a remote device.
I installed the 'WiFi Tether' app from Google play to give it a try, and the same thing happens.
However, this app gives me more detail and i can see what steps precisely block the connection, here is a screen of the error log : http://i.imgur.com/5ZhAAoF.png
Hopefully this'll help.
Has anyone run into the same issue? Can anyone confirm that the Portable Hotspot function still works on JB for Xperia P ?
It'd be kind of a shame to have to roll-back to ICS because of this....
Many thanks in advance for your help!

I've recently rooted my xperia play and found my wi-fi hotspot doesn't work. I've downloaded wi-fi tether apps but it doesn't seem to be connecting to the internet, it reads my connection but no access to internet.
Has anyone found a solution to this?
Thanks in advance
