I have a DroidX and I can tether using the built in stock Hotspot feature or with Bluetooth. However, I can't tether using an ad hoc connection because I get an error stating that the device doesn't support ad hoc connections...

So, it is definitely device specific and it will be something the carriers remove as many report being able to do so with root (my device is rooted and I can't connect via ad hoc - although, I haven't d/l or tried out the pdaNet app).

I will also add that the bluetooth tethering has worked MUCH better than the wifi - easier/faster to connect, runs pretty fast, and my phone doesn't overheat as much....
[Eee Pad Transformer General] jerrykur:
Works fine with my evo. The Evo has proper infrastructure wifi hotspot.

Maybe the users need to update their phones?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] AvRS:
I went into a store to try a tf and there was no internet so I turned on my WiFi hotspot on my sgsII and it worked perfectly fine, not sure if that's the same as you're asking but that works.

[Eee Pad Transformer General] rio911:
a lot of clarification

Hi all,

I need your help, understanding ... well everything about wifi/TF/WM6.5/adhoc and whatever the other connection is? :confused::confused:

I don't think of myself as a noob, but to be honest I'm lost with the wifi on the TF. So here it goes: I have TF and HD2. Under WM6.5 I can't get the TF to see the shared internet through the "wifi router" application on the phone. But then I run a custom Desire HD ROM and this one (can't remember the application) shares and gives access to the TF?!?!

First off, which is which? Which is adhoc and which is infrastructure? And what is the difference (sorry i did look on the internet, but that got me confused even more because I could not see any difference). Are you saying that a standard (not rooted Android) will have the same problem? I was thinking of switching to an android phone so that I can get the easy sharing option, but if I have to root a brand new phone????

Any help will be appreciated,

rio
[Eee Pad Transformer General] lordgodgeneral:
Easy way to tether off a rooted phone.

Install one of the older versions of wireless tether that supports bluetooth.

Turn on the bluetooth DUN on wireless tether.

Hit ok when it asks to turn on Bluetooth and make discoverable.

On the transformer go to settings-wireless-bluetooth

Scan for your device and pair.

Once paired you should see a little wrench next to your device, click on it

Under Profiles, it should show tethering with a checkbox. Click this and in a few seconds Wireless tether should buzz its connected and off you go.

I've been able to tether my transformer like this since out of the box.

Edit - BTW I've tried this with PDAnet and other non rooted tehtering programs, and I couldn't get it to work with those options. Just FYI
[Eee Pad Transformer General] finalhit:
the difference between ad-hoc and infrastructure is the way devices communicate.

infrastructure is kinda like the way we send messages via the post office. we send it to a central place, then it figures out how to deliver the message. this is how true routers operate

ad-hoc is peer-to-peer. imagine passing notes back in elementary school.

( Do you like me [yes] [no] )

some phones comes with a tethering app without having to root, but this typically requires you to pay extra fee to your carrier ($30 for sprint)

if you don't want to pay that, then you have to root your phone to either get a rom that already supports infrastructure mode, or download an app that does. [ ie Wifi Tether ]

people googling "honeycomb dun" would be incredibly misinformed by this thread.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] DevCake:
You are right. I put Honeycomb 3.1 in the title but forgot to mention in the OP if anyone heard that 3.1 would have support for DUN or Ad Hoc.

Sorry for any confusion I might have caused

I have been getting some random reboots recently. I just recently flashed sbf and then OTA 1.8.3, rooted and installed CWM. It doesnt seem like a full reboot because it is faster but I don't know. I am using LP+ and I have widget locker if that means anything. Also I just ran gladenable and it happened twice after that very close together.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WiredPirate:
I was told your not actually experiencing a reboot, it is the graphical shell crashing. There was a thread about this months ago but no solution was given afaik. I would also like to know if anyone has any more info on this.?

Edit: The reason I believe it is not a reboot is because it happened to me while I was on a call and I could hear the other person just fine until the phone finished its "rebooting", then it ended my call.

It would be hard for me to give up this kernel. SEE HERE and you have your choice of nonvoodoo or voodoo and offers bln (back light notification that works with app called bln from the market) and also voodoo sound (if you listen to music with your device you will appreciate this). Still use this kernel to this day and will for a long time. If you need direction on flashing then reply.

[Windows Mobile Software Development] Nixeus:
Hello my friends :)

I have a little problem on my WM6.5 rom.

When i go on the contact tab, i click on a button in order to a add a new favorite contact.

I select my contact on the list, and next, i select the first choice in order to attach a picture at my contact.

I can zoom in or zoom out in order to "crop" the picture, the problem is that i don't have at the bottom the two buttons ( Back and Done), so i cannot save my picture for my contact.

If i try to do the same directly with the HTC album, i have the two button.

Do you have some ideas about this little problem ?

Thanks a lot for your answer and your help :)

regards,

Nixeus

SOLUTION TO THIS PROBLEM :

Just use an older version of "Media_Tool_Kit" :)

OK GUYS AND GIRLS, WE'VE WAITED A LONG TIME FOR THIS ONE!!!!

CWM 3.0.2.5 UPGRADE WITH RFS AND EXT4 SUPPORT!

Please note: some people have had the samsung recovery appear after this flash, and in my testing, in some circumstances, the stock kernel can actually flash back the stock recovery. Due to this, I highly recommend that anyone flashing the new cwm with this flash, please also flash my clean kernel, located here: Clean Kernel EC05 1.03d thread Also note, that the one click version of this should not have this problem, since it takes away the ability of the stock kernel to flash the samsung recovery.

http://drockstar.devphone.org/EpicTools/cwm3.0.2.5.zip

Flash this with your current ClockworkMod to be upgraded!

Notes:

* This flashes bml8 kernel only, this kernel is stripped of bloat, for minimal file size

* 3 finger boot required to enter the bml8 recovery from power off

* Key assignments: vol up/down= up/down, camera button= enter, back cap key= back

hehe: has mkasick keyboard patch, so thumbing is faster!!!

* Full restores of backups done from prior cwm versions may not be possible. Do backup and restore > advanced > {choose backup} > and selectively restore the partitions you need.

* Once new backups are performed, those backups can be restored to *either* rfs or ext4.

* Now backup and restore includes both the kernel and recovery too

* Use in conjunction with my Clean Kernel, for ROM Manager support, other kernels will soon follow suit:

Clean Kernel EC05 1.03d thread

THE COMMUNITY!!!! I HAVE FINALLY SEEN DEVS WORKING TOGETHER IN WAYS I DIDN'T THINK WERE POSSIBLE...

LET'S KEEP THIS UP, AND KNOW THAT COOPERATION BENEFITS EVERYONE!!!!

* koush: the friggin man! he compiled the recovery binary, and gave me the advice I needed to finally get dual fs support!

* Rodderik: without his initial kernel training, I never would have gotten this done at all

* tanimn: for hosting of cwm koush files in this github, and sharing experience that was genuinely helpful

* mkasick: for the keyboard sysfs patch, for faster key response
[Epic 4G Android Development] quickstang:
Gonna test this out now...
[Epic 4G Android Development] Rodderik:
works great...it has been thoroughly tested :) great job DRockstar!

will be included in my kernel soon as well!

[Epic 4G Android Development] quickstang:
I do have a slight problem. I booted into CWM and it's all there, but it wont let me select anything. I can scroll no problems with my keypad but when I hit enter...nothing. Hitting the home button doesn't work either.

Any thought?

Looks like it works with the vol keys and the home button on the screen. Even then it seemed to be pretty slow when I wanted to get into the backup mode. It actually showed the hat and sat there and then I pressed home again and it went to backup/restore.

Just not sure why the keyboard keys don't work.
[Epic 4G Android Development] DRockstar:
forgot to mention... that the back soft key goes back, and not power, camera is enter
[Epic 4G Android Development] cornelious2:

Flashed the Clear Kernel 1.03d with it :)

The controls for the new CWM confused me at first!
[Epic 4G Android Development] DRockstar:
There is nothing about this flash that would affect the market, or anything else but the 3 finger boot in cwm.

Are you on ext4 filesystem? Perhaps your market or data got fuxored... may require a reinstall of rom or restore of data from a backup perhaps.
[Epic 4G Android Development] XtaC318:

Is your clean kernel compatible with all roms?

[Epic 4G Android Development] TheBurgh:

[Epic 4G Android Development] qbking77:
Nope, you can flash any kernel you'd like.

[Epic 4G Android Development] murso74:
ok i dont' know how to ask this in non stupid way.... does flashing this change what kernal you are on?
[Epic 4G Android Development] ThrIsNoSpork:
No, OP provided a kernel to make the new cwm compatable with rom manager. The zip containing the new cwm replaces recovery and that's it.
[Epic 4G Android Development] gdbassett:
I'm Dense. What is the benefit?

What benefits do you gain by upgrading to this version of CWM? (I'm sure I should understand this from previous posts but it's 3:00pm on a workday so I'm a bit burned out.) If you can put it in a bullet list you can help prevent me from emberassing myself by having to ask for additional explanation.
[Epic 4G Android Development] qbking77:
Helps us get closer to full rom manager support. Rom manager is an app that helps manage roms and kernels.
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
And hopefully it gives us a recovery that actually works ;)
[Epic 4G Android Development] nullghost:
And doesn't auto-convert you to ext4. :)

[Epic 4G Android Development] pvtjoker42:
Anybody played with ED12 and this recovery yet? Any issues?

Also, is there something in the recovery options to convert back and forth between RFS and EXT4? That would be awesome..

Edit: I tried ED12 "Leaky GB" rom from the .zip and it gave me an error "amend script is no longer supported" so i'm guessing this .zip won't work with this recovery currently unless someone updates it.
[Epic 4G Android Development] lafronz:
no way to convert from rfs to ext4 from recovery anymore?

edit: never mind I just used 3.0.0.6 to convert then flashed this over after simply AOSP. Thanks!
[Epic 4G Android Development] rygran87:
I tried flashing UrbanFury from this Recovery and well... it screwed up pretty bad, however it flashed SRF just fine. Before, with 3.0.0.6, UrbanFury worked liked a charm. Now it just hangs at the boot ani FOREVER. I let it try to load for a good 15 minutes with no results. Happened flash after flash but once I put on SRF 1.1 no more issues.
[Epic 4G Android Development] DRockstar:
Thanks for letting me know, I know someone else had problems in the irc with urban fury too...

I'm going to download it, and see what the problem is... I suspect, that it might be a kernel issue, but we'll see.
[Epic 4G Android Development] sniperkill:
For everyone asking the question on whether or not cwm-3.0.2.5 auto converts to EXT4, NO, it does not. It is just able to back-up and restore EXT4 and RFS file systems, where'as 3.0.0.6 is only able to back-up and restore EXT4. You can use 3.0.2.5 with EXT4 or RFS...
[Epic 4G Android Development] musclehead84:
Exactly and you can follow the instructions in the op in Roddericks thread to convert to ext4

The problems I see here are the same ones while we were working from 3.0.2.5 through 3.0.2.8. It is going to take someone who can recode cwm to fix this stuff.

It doesn't change your kernel number. Some developers don't have it show anything in your about phone. You can see what kernel you have using an app like setcpu.

All I need to do just flash new CWM and nothing else right? I do not need to install diferent kernel or something else?

Thank you very much for your patience.
[Epic 4G Android Development] DRockstar:
Yes, that is right, this does not flash the main kernel that boots android, only the one that gets booted from a 3 finger boot, the recovery kernel.

if you want a kernel that reboots recovery into the same cwm, then try out my clean kernel.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Devi0124:
OP says this flashes a new kernel??

I have read as much as I could of this thread but was unable to find my answer. Does this flash a new kernel or not? In the OP it says it flashes "bml8 kernel only".

If you lost root, then I'd reflash the Twilight Zone Kernel, which is responisible for the root in SRF.

If that doesn't fix it, then reflash the syndicate ROM.

Was hoping I wouldn't have to, but guess so. I did Odin. Thanks
[Epic 4G Android Development] DRockstar:
If you can do me a favor, pm me and let me know the circumstances surrounding you flash failure. It sounds like the bml8 flash got borked, which would leave no other option but to reinstall recovery from odin or heimdall.

I would like to know:

What cwm version were you using when you flashed this?

was the flash performed from a 3 finger boot or reboot recovery?

What kernel and ROM were you running?

This would help me see if certain configurations make a bad flash more likely to happen.

For future reference... if a bad flash to bml8 prevents the phone from booting at all, then I've found the quickest method of getting back up and running, is to heimdall. Extract the zImage from cwm3.0.2.5.zip, and flash that to recovery with heimdall. That will repair just your boot, without having to do a full odin flash.

Note: if you use both odin and heimdall, then set up the heimdall USB driver on another USB port than the one you normally use for Odin. I have been told that heimdall drivers can break the use of Odin on the same port.

Just for clarity because im just a tad bit confused.

I have EXT4 SRF 1.1.0

installed 3.0.2.5 recovery and then made a backup

I want to install the Swiss cheese RFS gingerbread rom

Now after I flash this rom and i choose not to use it anymore will the backup i made restore fully without having to reconvert back to EXT4 or will i have to odin back to ext4

I know ive probably ready posts wrong but its 2 something AM and i dont wanna f*** up and not have a proper working phone
[Epic 4G Android Development] DRockstar:
Yes, I do believe you're going to be OK, I have been told by ACS that the new modem works OK in froyo so far, with no troubles.

either way, the worst case scenario, is that you odin, or ReRFS the whole phone, then eventually restore your backup.

Edit: I'm about to do this myself, so if you wanna wait for my diagnosis, then cool... I'll be the test dummy!
