Modify wpa_supplicant.conf

Note that the method mentioned by Maxxd01 is different from the one i suggest. In Maxxd01's method you'll need to change /system/bin/wpa_supplicant. You'll have to find one for your specific device and platform or compile from source. Your Xperia will need a wpa_supplicant binary compiled for it. If you can find it follow the first method.

For my method, edit /data/misc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf as i said in the previous post. It seems you didn't do the chown properly.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nariman1980:
Thank you and I'm sorry cause i didn't read your previous reply .

As i understand that no need to copy wpa-supplicant anymore . And should edit the other wpa file .but i didn't understand what do you mean by adb emulater ? I'm new in Android and have no experience with it before so please don't feel boring from me if i ask any question .

I'm glad cause you're helping me thanks
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nariman1980:
I did as you mentioned

and for the first time i see the Wifi name of my Nokia n8 in Wifi scan

note :when i was scanning for Wifi spot before ,my Wifi didn't show the name at all .

But now after the scanning shows the name of the Wifi spot ,it couldn't connect and this is an image from my device

then i go back to wpa-supplicant.conf and realized that all data which i add has gone and new data has been written

note :"nariman"is the new Wifi spot and the other one is neighbor's Wifi spot .

what should i do next ?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HEXcube:
Use this wpa_supplicant.conf

Content of modified wpa_supplicant.conf(changes in bold)

ctrl_interface=wlan0

update_config=1

device_type=0-00000000-0

ap_scan=2

network={

ssid="nariman"

scan_ssid=1

key_mgmt=NONE

group=WEP104 WEP40

auth_alg=OPEN SHARED

wep_key0="09674"

mode=1

priority=1

}

After pushing the modded wpa_supplicant.conf don,t forget to change ownership and group back to original ones by doing

chown system.wifi /data/misc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf

or else wifi'll show error.

remember, don't scan for networks after turning on wifi. Keep the adhoc network ready and turn on wifi. It'll automatically connect. I hope you didn't change the name and password of adhoc network.I've included modded wpa_supplicant.conf along with an explanation wpa_supplicant.conf(in case you were wondering what this stuff is all about).

---------- Post added at 12:27 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:01 AM ----------

If you find it difficult try first with open adhoc. In which case your wpa_supplicant.conf would look like

ctrl_interface=wlan0

update_config=1

device_type=0-00000000-0

ap_scan=2

network={

ssid="your_adhoc_name"

scan_ssid=1

key_mgmt=NONE

mode=1

priority=1

}

Hi and Thank you again

i follow the steps

then i turned my Wifi on and didn't scan ,the name of my adhoc was there but no connection done. Only "not in range"is written under it and i don't know what does it mean

i press on adhoc nariman and this image shows the result

i think there's something stuck but i don't know what it is and what to do

waiting your opinion to solve this problem

I have Wifi manager ,does it help ?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HEXcube:
Wifi Manager is of great use. It show/lists adhoc networks,but does'nt connect to it.It causes the name of adhic networks to appear in wpa_supplicant.conf-that's great help coz u don't have to manually edit wpa_supplicant.conf to add the network name. But you still have to add the lines which i mentioned in the previous post(the bold ones).
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nariman1980:
I add the bold lines but after turning the Wifi off they disappear !shall i edit anything in permissions of wpa_supplicant_info ?ex :xxx.x.xxx
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HEXcube:
wpa_supplicant_info?

wpa_supplicant_info? Where did you find that file? Don't your fone have wpa_supplicant.conf?You should edit wpa_supplicant.conf in /data/misc/wifi. If there's any change in the files your fone have please tell me.

Don't edit the file while wifi is on. Turn wifi off and edit.

And after pushing the modified file you should change the ownership back to original, not the permissions.

Do the following using adb or Terminal Emulator as su

#chown system.wifi /data/misc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf

after doing this check the properties of file and make sure ownership is system wifi and not root root.

wpa supplicant has to be the exact ROM and phone. Won't work unless your phone is a Nexus S with a 4.0.4 rom...
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HEXcube:
Try wpa_supplicant.conf

@entity99

Did you try the alternative method suggested by me in post #4 of this thread? It doesn't require modifying wpa_supplicant binary and instead uses /data/misc/wlan/wpa_supplicant.conf. It doesn't require compiling for exact ROM and platform. Hope it works for you!

No internet connectivity

Hi,

I modified my wpa_supplicant.conf as described and (nearly) everything works fine.

I can connect to my Adhoc account which is joikuspot on a Nokia 5800.

I can also reach an other client which is connected via ping.

BUT: There is no way to access internet with the modified android :(.

Not possible to ping to the NOKIA and no way in the internet.

But the Internet connection from NOKIA is established and works with the

NOKIA and the other client.

I had a look on the route configuration in the android and also here seems to be everything right.

So is there any hint whats going wrong?

Remember: I can reach the second client in the Joikuspot network via ping....

Thanks a lot!

baerenbsch
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HEXcube:
So it connects!

I've always wondered if this works on Adhoc networks created by Joikuspot on Nokia. Thanks for confirming.

Which Android device did you use and which device was the second client? I'm not an expert in this stuff, but i think static IP might help. It worked for my old Windows XP laptop.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] baerenbisch:
I'm using a 3Q Qoo! Q-Pad RC0710B. It's a dirt-cheap 7" Tablet running Android 4.0.3 based on a RK2918 board featuring a 1GHz Cortex A8.

Original firmware but rooted. The second client is a notepad under Ubuntu 12.04 which is stable connected to the NOKIA without any problems.

Zhe connection with Win7 is also stable. I tried also with static routes but doesnt work too. I suspect the problem is in the joikuspot setup

because the entries of the clients (yes I see the android there also) are stored even when a client is disconnected. But also starting with a

clean joikuspot it doesnt work yet.

NB: Why are there double routes in the android for default gateway? All entries with metric 328 no sense for me...

SOLVED!

Using the newest joikuspot Version 3.12 IS WORKING fine!

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HEXcube:
Seems like your device is doing auto scanning on turning Wi-Fi . Custom modified lines in wpa_supplicant.conf will be lost once a scan is initiated. Normally this happens only if you manually press the scan button. New networks will be automatically added even without manual scan.so,Try to avoid doing scan.

Here,in your case try to disable the automatic scanning. The should be some setting to control this. Or it might be possible to add some option in wpa_supplicant.conf
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pta12345:
I haven't found a way to disable scanning. You are right, it scans all the time and networks from my neighborhood come and go all the time.

However there is one tweak: If I first connect to ADSL and Forget it then it instantly connect to Ad-Hoc.

So... when I leave from home I must be sure that I don't loose connection during my trips :D

Just modify the existing { } block

[MENTION=6010130]md.nizfahad[/MENTION]

Don't add the entire { } block. Just modify the already existing block which looks like somewhat like this:

network={
ssid="your adhoc name"
bssid=*some value*
.
.
}

Delete the bssid=*some value* line.

Then Add/Change the following to the { } block

scan_ssid=1

priority=50

mode=1

And don't forget to add ap_scan=2 at the start of the file, outside the { } block.

In the end your config would look something like:

ap_scan=2

[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sho7x:
Hello, I have bought the defy+ retail myself, and here is some data I would like to share.

System Version:45.0.2319.MB526.Retail.en.DE

Baseband: EPU93_U_00.60.03

Kernel: 2.6.32.9-ge281b6e

Build-number: 4.5.1-134_DFP-231

And from RSDLite:

Model: S Flash OMAP3630

Bootloader version: 09.10

I know about the unrootability of DFP-231. Now, this means that I am among those "happy people" with the unlocked bootloader, but still, I am having problems with device rooting; zergrush seems to hang at the "Scooting..." message. Anything I can test on the "happy people" device and report back?

Also, something easy. How many people are around here with fastboot and 09.10 ?
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pranks1989:
Even I have the same information (except SBF) shown in RSD but its not happy people! :) If it shows Fastboot in the bootmenu(Vol up + power) then it has unlocked bootloader...!
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nepotu:
Sorry to be the fun spoiler but your Defy is locked (hint: Model: S Flash OMAP3630 and not SE). To remove any doubt, you should see if you can enter fastboot mode (Power+Vol UP) as pranks1989 said. If it shows bootloader 09.10 then it locked.
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sho7x:
Sorry for the late reply. That is the thing, I haven't found anybody with this SBF around and the information I have in the bootmenu after vol up + power is this:

Bootloader

09.10

Battery OK

OK to Program

Connect USB

Data Cable

So guys, I understand that this is the locked version, but am I in any luck otherwise? Especially related to this SBF (en.DE) ?

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] hajalie24:
I'm looking for a solution also. I thought my prime would be able to replace my media player but when the screen is always on it's terribly distracting, even if the background is black.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] regalpimpin:
Screen off puts it to sleep. As far as I know there's no workaround.

But if you use dice player every video I've tried has used hardware decoding and gives you the black screen. Helps on battery as well as not being distracting. Swipe down to decrease brightness on the black screen even further. Doesn't affect you're actual brightness setting.

My tablet screen goes into a sleep mode after minute. but continues playing video. I also have it plugged in. I was using the crunchyroll app so I don't know if it will work for other apps. My best guess would be go into settings and click on display and adjust the time till the screen turns off. The last thing is you can just close the prime if you have the keyboard station or just flip it over so the screen is faced down.
