[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OmerX:
Hello Xda members . I noticed something great . In youtube remote app I noticed that the gingerbread glowing is present. Do you think that it can be enabled in Galaxy s Settings and menus too ?
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yelrx8:
I apologize in advance if this subject is posted elsewhere. Please kindly point me to the thread...

I'm a noob and just bought a viewsonic G-tablet.

I've been searching xda for a day now, and I cannot find a how-to guide on how to make the "adhoc wifi hack" to work on the stock ROM.

I've found this:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=754961

But I can't find a definitive answer on how to "flash this in recovery mode" specifically on the G-tab.

I'm assuming to proceed to installing ClockworkMod from (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=865245)

and then flashing the "adhoc-signed zip file" from there.

I realize ClockworkMod is used to flash ROM's, so I'm wondering if this "adhoc patch" file can be flashed the same way without affecting the stock ROM.

Please let me know if this is the correct path to go down.

Thanks for your help in advance.

what is that
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jasco13:
There is an easier solution. Search for the stock enhancement pack in the development forum. You will have to flash the file in CWM or with standard recovery. Instructions are in the post.

Enjoy your AdHoc goodnes.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yelrx8:
Okay, I answered my own question, but now have more problems to deal with.

I installed the "adhoc signed zipped" file with CWM. I created a new folder in the gtab root and put the "adhoc signed zipped" file in there. In CWM's menu, there is a selection to install zip/flash from an internal folder.

okay, got adhoc to work. When scanning for networks, the adhoc networks show up with the * as expected. I connected successfully to my wm6.1 phone with wmwifirouter.

However, the gtab cannot load up websites. I do see spurts of data on the phone being passed, but it seems to be spurts and it stops. Browser on gtab say check connection.

So I'm thinking that this has something to do with the adhoc hack on the stock rom. I'm going to bite the bullet and try a non-stock ROM to see if this will resolve the problem.

@jasco: I cannot find the stock enhancement pack in searching... I might need to search harder.

Flashed this to my Gtab to test it out. Completely broke my wifi. No longer will see any wifi or adhoc networks. I had to reflash.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jimcpl:
I don't have a phone that I can tether to, but my son does, and I just got this working w his phone.

What I did was:

- unzipped the file from that thread above, and got the wpa_supplicant file from the system/bin dir inside the unzipped dir

- turned off wifi

- used z4root to get temporary root and root explorer to make /system R/W

- used terminal to copy the new wpa_supplicant file to /system/bin

- changed permissions of /system/bin/wpa_supplicant to rwxr-xr-x

- turned wifi on

I was then able to see his SSID, and connect using WEP.

All depends....

What if you don't have an Android phone?

I use WM 6.5 phone (in my case HD2) to tether to my G-tab.

Using program WMWiFiRouter. G-tab picks it up as another regular router.

Never had a problem and most important for me, don't have to go through all of the trouble configuring AdHoc.

JMO.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lgkahn:
here is an easier method a version of the adhoc from froyo modified to support adhoc.. i was using it on my galaxy s.. now using it on the gtab works fine..

1. you need to be rooted.

2. use rootexplorer

3. turn off wifi

4. back up the existing file in /system/bin to somewhre on your sd or sd2 card.

5. using root explorer copy this file over the one in /system/bin

make sure to put /system in read/write mode (top of root explorer when in that directory) (also need to unzip it first)

I just updated my rooted tether on my droid x and now it works. Gtab sees my adhok without the zip.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] csurfer:
Have exactly the same problem. Been looking for a solution for quite a while. Can't understand why this should be so difficult.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yelrx8:
I went another route, but with the same problem.

I thought the "ad-hoc signed zipped" file install from CWM as I've described about was the issue, so I went back to the stock 3389 ROM with the tnt enhancement pack.

Exact same issue, the ad-hoc connection with WMwifirouter is connected, but no internet data will pass on the connection.

Tethering without root?

I'm definitely a noob to all this, although I have had an android phone for about 6 months now. I haven't found any roms to flash to my samsung transform so I haven't gotten root on it yet. Is there a way to tether to my g-tab (Vegan 7) with out gaining root to my phone? By the way, I really like the new rom.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sjmoreno:
I'm running a wireless tether app on my rooted Droid X and can connect my gTab to it without any updates or hacks or anything else. I'm running stock VEGAn 5.1.1 without any other tweaks.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rosscopicoterry:
I'll flash back to VEGAn 5.1.1 and see if tethering works with out having to hack my phone.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dgstan:
FWIW, I'm running this ROM and just tried it. It connected fine to my iPhone w/MyWi. No hacking required.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Belmichel:
No adhoc transfers with Vegan-Tab Ginger RC1

I've flashed this ROM 5 times now and ran some tests each time. I can connect to my WMWifirouter adhoc network, get an IP, but there is nothing going through...

My understanding is that this rom already has a hacked supplicant. What's my next step? Should I bother trying with the provided wpasupladhoc.6.1.zip above? Thanks in advance.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rosscopicoterry:
I cannot figure this thing out for the life of me. Has anyone gone the route of trying to use blutooth to connect from their android phone to the g-tab? I can get it to pair but not connect. G-tab may have to go back if I can't figure this out.

1.2-4349 Ad Hoc tether

Tried it on 1.2-4349 and it appears to work just fine. Immediately detected ad hoc tether on my original Droid running gingerbread.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rosscopicoterry:
Does the phone need to be rooted? Or are you putting these files on the g tab?
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ckran:
I got this to work and can expand on the instructions somewhat

1. From zip or patch copy wpa_supplicant to sdcard

2. Install apps: Z4root, Superuser, Android Terminal Emulator. Run z4root.

3. After reboot turn off wi-fi

4. Run Terminal Emulator.

$ su (superuser program will ask if that's ok)

# wpa_supplicant -v (confirm version you are running)

# cd /system/bin

# mv wpa_supplicant wp_supplicant.back (make back up copy)

# cat /sdcard/wpa_supplicant >wpa_supplicant (copy w/o cp command)

# chmod 755 wpa_supplicant (everyone can read and execute)

# ls -l w* (check that copy and permissions worked)

# wpa_supplicant -v (confirm that you can run it)

# exit

$ exit

4. On your phone (or whatever) create an ad-hoc network and use WEP security.

5. Turn on wi-fi. > Settings > Wifi settings > Scan for Networks.

Ad-hoc networks appear like this:

(*)barnacle

Select it and for security select WEP and enter your key.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JoTeC:
There seems to be confusion here between connecting to the adhoc WiFi network and actually being able to connect to the internet. I am having the same problems as most other posters on here. I am able to see AND connect to the WMWiFiRouter but cannot get through to the internet. So, I would like to be able to use the internet through my phone but have had no luck. Does the wpa_supplicant file listed above actually allow the GTab to work through the adhoc network as well as infrastructure mode. I have no problems at all conncting and browsing the internet on infrastructure wireless networks. I am only having problems browsing the internet through my connected adhoc network. TIA...
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] csurfer:
Same problem. Connect yes, internet no. suspect the problem is with WMWiFiRouter. This is really aggravating and I suspect the solution it's simple once we figure it out.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ckran:
I am running Barnacle on my (rooted) Droid2 which creates an adhoc network. I'm connecting from my gtab (stock 4349, rooted, wpa_supplicant replaced) and can get through to the internet. Web, email, etc.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JoTeC:
From what I understand as a new user, the system on our GTab is set by default to connection as a infrastructure WiFi and needs tweaking to set a connection to adhoc WiFi network. I have tried creating an infrastructure network from WMWiFiRouter but cant find a setting in the software. Maybe it is limited to adhoc only.

I agree, this will all be so easy in the end but it just want to get it working. My GTab just wants to be connected to run some programs and is more just more happy overall... ;)
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JoTeC:
Thanks ckran! Thats what I was looking to hear. I would love to try replacing the wpa-supplicant but am still learning how to go that far with the commands. (I don't want to have problems I can't recover from easily...) Can you tell me what program you used to replace the wpa_supplicant in the system. I am using a Rooted GTab TnT Lite 4.4.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ckran:
I tried using "Root Explorer" but couldn't get around permission problems, so I did it the old school from the command prompt.

I used "Android Terminal Emulator" to issue the commands shown in my post above. Since once you enter su there is no cp (copy) command available i used cat to copy the new wpa_supplicant. If you follow my directions you'll have a backup copy of the original file, so if you have problems you could always rm (remove) the new one and mv move the old one back.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JoTeC:
Thanks ckran, I'll give this a try by using your recommendations. I will run your instructions exactly. Thanks again!
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JoTeC:
OK I tried several options. Using terminal emulator I got the following:

$ su (superuser program will ask if that's ok)

Yes

Granted permission

# wpa_supplicant -v (confirm version you are running)

Yes

copyright (c) 2003-2008 Jouni <j@wl.fi> and contributors

[1] + Stopped (signal) wpa_supplicant -v

# cd /system/bin

Yes

[1] Segmentation Fault wpa_supplicant -v

# mv wpa_supplicant wp_supplicant.back (make back up copy)

Yes

failed on 'wpa_supplicant' Read-only file system

AT THIS POINT I BAILED OUT

# exit

$ exit

The tried using the Root Explorer method as lgkhan suggested and was successful saving and replacing wpa_supplicant in the /system/bin directory with r/w permissions. Restarted everything and the new WiFi settings no longer shows a (*) next to my adhoc network but actually shows (adhoc) next to my network name. Connected just fine but still no internet passes through my connection. :(

I reconnected to my infrastructure network no problem and internet passes through... Anyone see anything I missed?
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JoTeC:
I am still struggling to get an internet connection through my WMWiFiRouter running on WM 6.5. Is there any other suggestions that are not already posted? I have tried the wpasupladhoc.zip file with no luck. Connects fine but no internet. I have downloaded the wpa_adhoc_signed.zip and found the wpasupplicant file inside but have not tried it yet because of the problems other posters have experienced. Has anyone successfully tethered (WITH INTERNET) a HTC Tilt2 running WMWiFiRouter to the GTab. I can see all AdHoc networks, I can connect to them, but I can not get through to the internet. My laptop works just fine so I know I have the WMWiFiRouter configured correctly. I just can't get this GTab tethered successfully with internet connection.

While I have been waiting for a internet tether solution, I have been able to tether my GPS from my phone to my GTab and is working good. Google Maps shows my active location with blue indicator. This wasn't nearly as tough as tethering my internet connection. Someone must have a solution for us. Maybe there is a different Windows Mobile WiFi Router program I could try? I pay for tethering service through AT&T if it matters. Any help out there?
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JoTeC:
Just for grins, I took the wpasupplicant file out of the system/bim folder of the wpa_adhoc_signed.zip file I got from the forum. I shut down WiFi on my GTab, used Root Explorer to replace the original wpasupplicant file in my system/bin folder of my Gtab using R/W option. All went good. Restarted WiFi and viola, Google poped right up in my browser. I thought I had finally solved the problem. So just to be sure, I rebooted the GTab and no more connection. Shut down and restarted WiFi, and Google again came up in my browser. I could Google Search and browse any Google links, (Google Images, Maps, etc) but if I tried to click outside of Google.com, I would get nowhere, webpage not available... Double checked the links from my laptop (also tethered to my HTC WMWiFiRouter) and they were valid links. Came right up on my laptop browser. So, eventually the tethered internet connection would fail and I couldn't even get back to Google. I would have to shut down WiFi on my GTab and restart and then I could get back to Google on my browser. But, click on any searched link outside of Google and nothing. So, I believe the solution has to be within the wpasupplicant file, at least I had limited results which was better than my previous results using the original wpasupplicant file or the first replacement I tried from the wpasupladhoc.6.1.zip also in this thread . I know some Droid Braniac can help us understand what is going on with this AdHoc tether issue.

Maybe I need an Android Phone? :p
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JoTeC:
OK, I took my own advise and chucked the HTC WM 6.5 phone in the rubbish bin... I bought a new HTC Inspire 4G and WITHOUT rooting the phone, the hot spot feature creates an infrastructure network, GTab connected straight away and internet was perfect. Also, the GPS Bluetooth tether to my GTab also went perfect, again WITHOUT rooting the phone. So, if anyone has the same issues as I did, go ANDROID! ;)
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] csurfer:
Unfortunately buying another expensive phone to replace a phone that works fine isn't really a solution to a problem though the manufactures would love this. Clearly Android needs proper adhoc capability.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JoTeC:
Yeah csurfer, I agree it shouldn't have been so hard. I really did put several days into it. That being said, the Inspire 4G was US $99.00 and if I had known that I could have had complete tethering success for that price, I wouldn't have even spent an hour on it... Time is money... ;)

Hello.

I am still user of some old school software (SPB Pocket Plus,SPB Diary,etc.).

Main problem with these apps and with some others is,that in some cases I need to select some row from Dropdown menu list(Combobox),but the contents simply doesn't show.

This occurs in WM6.5 and WM 6.5.x maybe WM6.1 as well.

So my question is,if there exists some fix,because some software,that I want to use are useless.

Thanks in advance and btw.I tried to search,but doesn't found.
[Atrix 4G General] theExchangerX:
I need help with editing the AndroidManifest.xml in BlurPhone.apk and BlurDialer.apk... I have edited the .xml files in both of them to set screenOrientation to "sensor" instead of "nosensor" because I want the dialer and in call screen to show up in landscape without having to use the car dock or the desktop dock to achieve this. I have a universal mount that I use and I have applied the webtop hack and created shortcuts to the desktop and cardock activities. Every other program switches to landscape except for these two.

Here is what I have done with BlurDialer.apk...

I decompiled, edited the XML to "sensor" and recompiled BlurDialer.apk with no errors in apktool. I then copied the META-INF from the original file to the new one. I properly copied the file to /system/app using adb shell. When I reboot the dialer app is gone. I copied the old BlurDialer.apk back into place to see if it was the way I copied it to the system that caused the problem. When I did that everything returned back to normal so it has to be something in the way I am editing and recompiling the file.

Here is what I have done with BlurPhone.apk...

I decompiled with no errors, made the edit to "sensor" in the xml file, when I recompiled I received an error. Even when I make no edits if I recompile the file I still get an error.

Please show me what I need to do.

Thanks!!

[myTouch 4G General] coupetastic-droid:
Sounds like the same exact problem I had about a month ago after trying to flash a new splash image but messed up some where. I figure that my problem was that I hard bricked my mt4g. I never found a fix. I ended up calling cc and asking for a warranty exchange.

I didn't know at the time but I heard if you have eng hboot you can flash through adb if you get bricked. So if you were on eng hboot you might want to try adb and flash the stock zip file or another rom see if that works.
[myTouch 4G General] mustk1ll20:
Could be bricked. Unplug it remove the battery and let it sit for a little bit. when you put the battery back in hold power button down and volume button down. If your lucky you'll get hboot. Then go to recovery and restore.

Sure wish we had a Ginger/Sense build... would happily donate to anyone willing to work on this port. Anyone?
[Droid Incredible General] frostincredible:

[Droid Incredible General] renzo.olivares:
Gingersense kernel.....and we get that from our own gingersense leak
[Droid Incredible General] 0soPolar:
Gingersense kernel

The other option would be for someone to put in way too much work (along with a lot of trial and error) into compiling a kernel that works.

That would be accomplished by putting in more dev time than anyone who works for HTC...that or by being an incredibly lucky super genius.

Take note...if anyone does compile a gingersense kernel without getting it from a leak, that person deserves to have their donate button clicked quite generously, because they will have accomplished something of tremendous value.
