[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] anziclone:
Well, people , was trying to Share my laptops Broadband connection with my sgs running MIUI 1.7.8 but couldnt get to to work. The phone just used to get stuck at "Obtaining ip address". Using Connectify didnt help me, so i had to manually configure the connections.

Here is a complete tutorial for connecting to the adhoc network to get it working.

Setting up the connection:

1) Go to Control Panel > Network and Internet > Network and Sharing Center.

2) Go to Change Adapter Settings

3) Find the adapter for the default internet connection (it was a PPPOE in my case, it is the connection u use to connect to the internet.)

4) Right click on that -> Cancel as Default Connection

4) Right click -> Properties -> Sharing tab

5) Uncheck "Allow other network users to connect ..." if it is not

6) Right-Click the Correct Wireless Network Connection > Properties > "Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4)" in Windows Vista / Only "Internet Protocol (TCP/IP)" in Windows 2000 and XP > Properties

7) Choose "Use the following IP address:" and enter the following

IP address : 192.168.0.1

Subnet mask : 255.255.255.0

Setting Up The Network :

1) Open Network and Sharing Center.

2) Under Change your networking settings, click Set up a new connection or network.

3) Select Set up a wireless ad hoc (computer-to-computer) network

4) Enter your Network name, and enter a Security key if wanted (Use WEP over here, WPA doesnt seem to work.)

5) Check the box for Save this network and click Turn on Internet connection sharing on next page.

Configuring the Phone :

1) Now on the android, go to Settings -> Wi-Fi Settings -> Advanced.

2) In IP settings, turn on use static IP.

3) Give The settings as follows :

IP address : 192.168.0.2

Gateway : 192.168.0.1

Netmask : 255.255.255.0

DNS 1 : 192.168.0.1

4) Now turn of Use Static IP. Dont worry, the settings will remain as they are.

5) Now Go back and connect to the adhoc network you created above, give the password and it will try to connect to it.

6)At this point, you will see Obtaining IP address, now go into advanced again and enable use static ip. Voila! you are connected to the network.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] skyworxx:
Well, if you're using Windows 7, there is no need for ad-hoc networks :)

Windows 7 has a built-in support for wireless hotspots, but unfortunatly Microsoft didn't implement a control panel for that.

There is a freeware called connectify, it will turn your Windows7 Computer with a wireless card into a real hot spot, no ad hoc needed:

http://www.connectify.me/
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] oswade:
I couldnt get connectify to work either. But I found a much better (lightweight and simple) program which worked for me called "virtual router manager". Works a charm every time :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] anziclone:
Connectify didnt help, and AP mode or adhoc mode is based upon the Wireless network harware you have and not the Operating System... :p
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] anziclone:
Not all network cards are supported by virtual router manager.. Mine was not supported.. whereas the above method works for all wifi cards regardless of model... :) :D
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] anziclone:
well, observed thks thing... for connecting to wifi everytime we need to turn of use static ip, then turn on wifi and wait for obtaing ip address message and after it is shown, go to advanced and switch on us sttic ip... this does the trick...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Prasad:
Connectify just keeps giving my system a damn BSOD...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dadyal:
Some Old Intel Crap Wifi Cards Don't Work On Connectify
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Duulis:
Actually wireless AP mode was implemented in Windows 7 and therefore programs like connectify won't work on Vista or Xp.

Adhoc has been supported for much longer, but it is a completely different thing than wireless AP mode.

If you are running Windows 7, you should be able to use wireless AP mode. If programs like connectify somehow fail, you can always try enabling it manually.

If everything fails, upgrade your hardware.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] jaibar:
I am using connectify on XP machine every day without any problems. But on windows 7x64 cannot manage to get ad hoc connection neither with connectify nor with virtual router or whatever it is called- I just get stuck at "obtaining ip"..

I used mhotspot today and worked well for my htc evo with mik3.0 and the KRAKD transformer

I wanted something like this so as to use the VPN service on the laptop..

and hook the other two devices through it..

(I am in China so need to hopthewall on my droid devices)

worked like a charm..

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] YoKid:
Howdy~

I got an SE X10i and lately I've been having issues connecting to my home WiFi.

I have just recently set an Static IP to my laptop since I'm hosting a game server, so this probably IS the problem to my issue.

BUT is there a way to work around this so I can keep my Static IP AND get my phone connected to my home wifi?

My phone connected before so its pretty much the static IP creating conflict.

Note:

-Using a Linksys router.

-Static IP Machine is connected wirelessly

Thanks in advance,

JT

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Cambxo:
Hey guys..right before I left to work I charged my galaxy tab. When i came back from work my galaxy tab was on but it was a blank screen seems like only the back light was only on. Picked it up and it was pretty hot. Tried to turn it on but wouldn't go to the lock screen had to turn it off and turn it back on but everything seems to run okay after it rebooted. Don't want to have the thought of something well go wrong if i leave it to charge without supervision. is anyone having a similar issue like mine? By the way I'm running bonsai rom too..think it might have something to do with bonsai rom?

Hi guys!

I've just received my Galaxy S yesterday. Looks like I have a problem already, I can't upload pictures and videos to Facebook, Picasa, Google+ and YouTube. In notifications, all I can see is that it's on 0% for a while, then retry. Weird thing is, Speedtest runs fine, I can also browse the internet without any problems. I use Wi-Fi only and I have 2.2.1 installed.

For some reason uploading doesn't work with the mentioned apps. I can log into these apps, and I can see my login data is saved in options. Tried reboot and hard reset without success.

What can it be? Has anyone experienced this before? Any solutions or advices are appreciated. :)

From file expert i can select multiple apk files and can start install them but i have to click 2 times for each install. Click install and click done.

I want to put all my apk files into a folder and just one click i want to install them.

Is this possible?

I dont want backup programs, i want to automated, uninterrupted install.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shrapnel2:
The only thing I can think of is installing all the apps you want backup them up and batch restore when required(Can usually do 80 apps in a 5-10min) with Titanium backup pro which costs.
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] CdTDroiD:
So you can now download multiple map areas when your at home on WiFi before you go out and they stay there so you dont need data to use maps.

Just do the following:

1. Make sure you have the latest version 5.7

2. When in Google Maps, press menu

3. Then choose: more > labs > and select "Download Map Area"

4. Go back to the map and center where you want to download.

5. Hold down your finger in the center of the map untill the address pops up.

6. Press the address bubble and the standard menu will popup only now you can select "Download Map Area" which will download 10sq Miles of map around that address, you can keep doing it until you have the whole of NZ if you want, its awesum!

Try it out, works great.

I have no idea where that is but no you don't you just need to download the map and then turn gps on... All you need is gps.
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] nm8:
Thanks but it will take me a day to download the whole of UK. Hopefully Brut will crack it and make it downlaod at least 100sq miles at a time then it will be easier.
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] MohamedYousri:
I don't know why google don't make Maps Loader to allow us to get the maps for countries we want and then use only GPS to use maps like in Nokia Maps it will be so good to have all country map in offline mode
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] rkanwar:
I agree so much easier
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] rkanwar:
I still don't get how it works to be honest
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] sheanzyy:
It will download a 10mile radius of map data and it enables you to travel offline if needed ( in case of a kink in data connection ).

I constantly travel, so what I did was download 10+ 10mile radius so I would have no issue when travelling through deadzones ( which is EVERYWHERE.....thanks AT&T :rolleyes: )
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] rkanwar:
How would you download 10+10 mile radius?
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] CdTDroiD:
Would be pretty cool. I'm sure they will sometime, they will have to keep up
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] blackvyper:
No, it's not. It won't help you if you need to reroute to another destination you didn't pre-download. I've been using CoPilot since 2009 while waiting for Google to catch up... no problems yet. I guess free isn't always better.
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] rkanwar:
The only thing i like is that google picks up gps almost instantly...wheres as sygic 3 takes ages

hi , i am from egypt , and i am using HTC WildFire , and i cant find any "Download Map Area" under labs menu , why is that ?
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] joooe:
There's a particular detail about this:

"This download stores only the base map tiles and the landmarks on the map, so you still need a data connection to see satellite view and 3D buildings, search for Places and get directions."
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] Kisses99:
Exactly, so the "offline" map is still a joke.
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] Hatem2020:
thanks

where maps are saved ? (internal mem or sd)
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] dr_crx:
Thank you very much,
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] nktt3514:
Thanks!
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] tonylee000:
And your downloaded map area is only good for 30 days then automatically deleted. <<is that still the case? That's how it was when it was still in testing. Weather it is or not, it just doesn't compare with the likes of Nokia maps for symbian 60. Now on android I'm using co pilot premium and that is wicked. Google maps are 'clearer' - more detailed if.you will but I won't bother until you can download the maps properly, turn off the data connection and it still work.
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] Oldfish:
wow, really amazing. thanks for sharing
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] suxelexus:
Having an HTC, why not use Locations, which can be used as offline maps...and I believe is the entire country?
