[Q] Cellular network - Ubuntu Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
I'm kinda new here but I have some problems with my nexus 4
I used MultiRom to install Ubuntu Touch on my nexus so I wouldn't loose my android (still need some things from there but I'm realy looking forward to make Ubuntu Touch my main OS) but I can't connect to my cellular network. I've read that I needed to remove my pincode from my simcard, so I did that but that didn't change a thing.
Can anybody give me some insights on how I could get it to work ?

Ditto. I did the same as you, and no Carrier and no WiFi with Ubuntu Touch on my N4.

[Q] HD2 not picking up Tether wifi

Hello.
I recently just got an HD2 but it is network locked.
So I just use Google Voice and it serves me well but when I'm not in a wifi zone I have to use my G1 which now isn't as great as it seemed to be last year
BUT
I can tether from my G1 and use it on the HD2 so I can use Google Voice no matter where I am.
Here is my problem
The HD2 does not pick up the tether. It picks up my house wifi etc etc just not my tether. I tested my tether out on a separate HD2 and it seemed to pick it up fairly quick. I've tried changing the Channel to multiple channels but nothing.
Any reason why?
Thanks for quick response if anyone could help me before I have to leave for work which is pretty soon =P
really?
*bump*
Could I make it work with bluetooth tether?
(is it supported through another rom or something)
I'm n dire need of an unlock code since I can't tether if anyone can help me get one through T-Mobile ( since I don't know anyone with a T-Mobile account) please PM me please. I'm in need of one.
Can you see your tether from another machine? (like laptop or desktop)
Perhaps your G1 send out a hidden signal (not broadcasting)
In that case you should try directly editing the WiFi name and manually adding (without finding the WiFi network) the settings.
Also you could try to make your G1 "unhidden".
Just some thoughts...
"I tested my tether out on a separate HD2 and it seemed to pick it up fairly quick"
It decided to show up today. Thanks Wilco.

[Q] HD2 6.5 Wi-Fi tethering with android tablet

Hi All,
I running the stock wm6.5 HD2 rom from t-mobile.
I have just bought a Arnova 10 G2 (cheap from hmv) and would like to use my phone wi-fi hotspot to get online. The problem I have is, the tablet does not recognise WEP encryption.
Can someone tell me the easiest way I can get online using my phone?
I have done several searches and a few people discuss similar issues and talk about writing and adding code. I do not know how to do this as I'm a middle aged fat bloke with no understanding of such things.
I have read a lot about flashing the phone to make it android, would this help or is there a simpler way?
Thanks in advance
CJ
Problem is not your WM6.5 HD2.
Problem is Android has ****e standard connectivity & does not have ad-hoc support as standard.
You will have to find an ad-hoc fix for the Tablet.
WM6.5 conectivity for tethering in both directions is faultless & can be achieved via wifi/BT/USB

Hi,
Thanks for the reply.
I'm not sure how to find a ad-hoc fix for the tablet. I've looked for wi-fi apps to find one that will recognise WEP w-fi.
there are a few out there but they find the phone but do not allow connection. as when you try to connect it takes you back to the tablet software.
thanks again for your help.
i have the same problem ... HD2 WM.6.5 and ARCHOS 70 INTERNET
do you found a solution??

The only way I've found is to replace the wpa supplicant file, and it will require root access. I can't seem to attach files from my View. I got the file in the Dell Streak forum - search for wpa_supplicant. The one I have is for gb.

EDIT: OK, back on my PC, and here is the thread with the file:

Hello, I've got the same tablet and tethering works with my htchd2. Wifi routing does not work, I was not able to create a PAN network with my HTC HD2, and was not able to see a DUN network on my tablet. (or is it the other way round ?)
But tethering, using my 3G connection works. I sometimes need to reboot the tablet.

Unable to connect to adhoc wifi

Hi all,
I just got my brand new Samsung Galaxy SIII
All is well except for the fact that the phone is failing to even detect the adhoc wifi that I've setup. I get my home's internet using a mobile cdma usb modem and I've setup an adhoc wifi connection thru internet sharing option in windows 7.
Here's a twist though: When using my Ipod Touch- I noticed that the Ipod manages to detect the same adhoc wifi network I've setup- the Ipod also manages to connect to the network but fails to provide any internet. (from windows 7)
Oddly enough- the only way I can get adhoc wifi to work is when I use it on my Ipod from Linux Ubuntu. I cannot connect to adhoc wifis from either windows 7 or linux on my SGS3.
Is there any way I could get my SGS3 to detect and connect to the adhoc wifi from either windows 7 or Ubuntu with the mobile internet that I use at home??
Bump. Anyone??
Android's Wifi manager by default does not detect or use adhoc networks.
There exist several patches (requires root) but I'm not sure if they have been confirmed to work/ported to the S3 yet.
CM9 should include adhoc support.
I strongly recommend using the Windows7 application 'Connectify' which creates a full-fledged ap-mode network and not an adhoc while still allowing you to keep connected to any current Wifi network.
I guess similar tools might exist for OsX and Ubuntu Linux but I've only used them in forward tether and not reverse tether so far.
By the way, this is a forum not a support center. So it might take some time to get a reply.
Bumping after 3 hours is just rude seeing that we all try to work together for free

Thanks for the clarifications and suggestion. I finally managed to share my usb internet using mhotspot , so it's all good now. Now it's time to root this ***** and go app-freaking-crazy

This issue is ICS Related, I had the Galaxy nexus for 6 months, i tried every solution that is out there with no luck, hopefully CM will include this fix or else use "Connectify" which personally I don't recommend.

If you haven't tried it already- then I suggest you try disabling your antivirus when you share the network. That's what I did in the end to finally make it work.

Ad hoc network for nexus 10?

I know this has been asked for other android devices before, but is there any chance that we can get this somehow enabled on a rooted nexus 10? I have a windows mobile 6.1 phone which only can create ad hoc wifi network for tethering (unless someone knows of a prog similiar to foxfi which can create infrastructure network on win mobile 6.1 phones)
i use my win mobile phone (HTC Touch Pro 2) as a phone as modem with my windows laptops. Anyone has tried out PPP widget and see if this works with a win mobile phone as modem and nexus 10?
Is there any custom rom which allows ad hoc network connection? Really need to be able to tether with my phone ;( appreciate any suggestion. thanks
I would also like any info offered on this topic

From what i read, they make it even harder to get ad hoc to work under jelly bean.. thats why the usual wpa_supplicant replacement has not wrk. But that doesnt mean it impossible, cabn ayof the experts comment more? Any chance this can b fixed?
So no hope so far that jelly bean can be hacked to work with ad hoc?
I am trying to also get ppp widget to work with my phone. but even if i get this working, this method would use up the nexus battery much faster. So wifi tether still better. No chance we can ever get ad hoc to work on jelly bean? ;(
