●●[ROOTED][GUIDE]Wifi Reverse teTher-Windows and Ubuntu-Ad hoc Networks●●

This guide teaches you to reverse tether your Android phone via WiFi. That is, it allows you to use your Ethernet connection of PC on your Android phone. It is useful for those who do not have WiFi routers and data connection. So if you have unlimited data plan for your computer, why not share the connection with your phone?

I am not the developer of the files supplied :D

Requirements:-

1.Rooted Phone

2.Wifi enabled Laptop or PC

3.Root explorer or any other application which gives system access

4.File in the attachement :)

Procedure :-

Phone:

Download Wpa_supplicant.zip and extract "wpa_supplicant" from it, save it on your SD card.

Open Root Explorer, and grant it superuser access when asked for.

Navigate to system -> bin and long press on wpa_supplicant; Select copy, and paste the file into any folder on your SD card.

Now navigate to the file you downloaded, copy it in same way, and paste it back to system -> bin. Note, you might need to mount the system as R/W instead of R/O by pressing a button on the top just before pasting the file.

Reboot.

▬▬Ubuntu (Must work for other Linux Distros too)▬▬:

Open Network Connections

Goto Wireless tab, select add, and set the following:

SSID: <Any_name_you_like>

Mode: Ad hoc

Leave other things unchanged, and go to Ipv4 settings tab

Set method to Shared to other computers

Go to Wireless security tab and set Security to WEP 40/128 bit key and set key to a numeric password (or hexadecimal one).

Check the connect automatically box on top of the tabs and press Save.

Your Android phone must now detect this network, and you can establish the connection by using your security key.

▬▬Windows XP, Vista, 7▬▬

Download and Install Connectify from www . connectify.me/download-lite/

Start Connectify Hotspot by giving a name and password to your hotspot and selecting the Ethernet connection to share. Make sure the security type is WEP or Open.

Disable your firewall (Simply adding it to exceptions doesn't work for AVG at least)

Now your phone should be able to see the hotspot and establish the connection using the password set.

Known Issues :

1.Random disconnections (Very less frequency)

2.Disconnections due to screen lock / sleep on laptop

3.For me Security mode does not works :cool:

HIT THANKS IF IT WORKED

ENJOY:)

Well wat does dat file do in specific??coz der's no prob 4r me conectng using connectify..

and hey u can share pc or laptops net through ad hoc ntwrk i thnk u knw dat :D
[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] Avilove.Cullen:
Yeah but connectify allows more option like file sharing etc .

That file enables reverse tethering via wifi :D
[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] Avilove.Cullen:
Ur PC is wifi enabled or not ?? :)
[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] Crytech:
How to know that?
[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] Avilove.Cullen:
check ur PC's spec :cool:

or

If you still haven't found anything to indicate that your computer is Wi-Fi enabled, right-click on "Computer" again, select "Manage" and "Device Manager." Then click on the "Hardware" tab. Read the list below "Network Adapters." Note that any adapter labeled "Ethernet" or "10/100" has nothing to do with wireless compatibility. However, any adapter labeled "wireless" or "802.11" indicates compatibility.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kcake:
After upgrading to the LPY. My phone seems to be plagued with the problem of Mobile data not turning ON. It works sometimes and then after a while the 'E' icon in the status bar disappears and the data doesn't turn on no matter what.

I restarted the phone dozens of times. Removed the battery, removed the SIM. I even hit *#9900# and disabled the fast dormancy. No luck whatsover.

Could someone please help me out here??:(
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] opsakas:
I had to delete existing APN's and

Settings - More - Mobile Networks - Acces Point Names

press Menu now - choose Reset to default

For me it worked...

BTW do not forget then to select the one that is meant for internet (not wap, mms)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smelme:
akshay, i had the same problem. just do a factory reset from your phone. be sure to backup your data via kies first if you want to save your data.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kcake:
Thanks for the quick response. I deleted the APNs restored to default. Still no luck.

I don't want to factory reset cuz its way too much work to install everything again!:(
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SpyderTracks:
I would strongly suggest not doing a factory reset under lpy.

Another option that may help which I have done a few times successfully is to go to manage applications, find the dialer app and delete cache and data. This should reset your data connections and will prompt for the connection you need before reapplying.

Hope it helps.

[General Questions and Answers] blazerphoenix:
Hi guys, I've got a question here.

When you hard brick your phone, is the hard bricking really spoiling your phone or is it just some sort of safety protocol which the phone uses?

Just asking.
[General Questions and Answers] Android311:
If your phone is hard brick then your phone is completly useless.....wait that's not true, you can use it as a paper weight in your office or use it as a kids toy :p
[General Questions and Answers] Aprentice_:
My Xperia Arc S was hard bricked twice but i managed to fix it. 1st time while flashing the phones battery slipped (cover wasn't in place) and the second time I flashed a corrupted file....

I had hard time fixing the phone but when I flashed the gingerbread ROM it booted normally (via fast boot).
[General Questions and Answers] Android311:
So it wasn't hard bricked, if you can't fix it then its hard bricked...right?

Let's talk sense 4

Github: github.com/wfsdev/marvel-golf-port
[HTC Wildfire S] benjamingwynn:
Reserved
[HTC Wildfire S] seaskyways:
I wanted to start that , but it seems like nobody other than s_off can do it , as for the internal memory has to be resized for the system to fit ...
[HTC Wildfire S] benjamingwynn:
this thread will house the ROM when it is finished
[HTC Wildfire S] benjamingwynn:
Indeed but we can strip and png crush

We could also attempt something like system2ext - for now we will probably use repartitioning zips as most of us devs are s-off.

Edit: it looks like using the SD for system is easy due to the way we can pretend it's part of the internal memory
[HTC Wildfire S] insink71:
I never really liked squashed roms.. but may have to pull the squasher out.

Hardware sounds strikingly similar.. anybody know of any other differentials other than [its] arm7 vs [our] arm6?

Rob
[HTC Wildfire S] klacenas:
a reason to go back to sense again.. looking forward..
[HTC Wildfire S] benjamingwynn:
Just a different instruction set, no real problems, only really for game porting. Some libs will need to be changed.

The reason why it is hard to port games to armv6 is because v7 supports floating point calculation.
[HTC Wildfire S] insink71:
It does support it better; although the armv6l does have a lil virtual floating point. Main thing is you'd probably have to rewrite shaders for gaming. Luckily, that's not where we're at ;)

Built on ics I assume... 4.0.x; x=?

Nice.. jik..,mind.., I mean einstein.frat has a 3.0 kernel; that may come in handy.

Rob
[HTC Wildfire S] benjamingwynn:
I will look at build.prop now

My guess is 4.0.3

Edit: I was right, it is 4.0.3
[HTC Wildfire S] einstein.frat:
this is imposible port, its like porting symbian 3 to an X6. I'll just wait for an idogx port if this is possible, then I start modding as usual. :D
[HTC Wildfire S] *se-nsei.:
What are you on about mate?

Nice thread benj, also XDA newswriters said to me they will feature post the wildfire s about ics as soon as a sense 4 rom is available in some way, then I have to tell them. Then everyone will know about CM9 too. :D
[HTC Wildfire S] Thrawed:
If you're really desperate for space then alarms, notifications and ringtones can be stored on the sd card under /sdcard/Media/ in their respective folder.

Cough aokp cough

Wow, that is just......low. To everybody who doesn't know, m1nd is Einstein.Frat so....

1. Multiple accounts is against rules

2. Off topic is against rules

3. Unneeded foul language is not allowed

4. insulting other people is obviously not allowed

SO TO EVERYBODY READING THIS, I WOULD NOT TRUST YOUR PHONE WITH A GUY WHO MADE A TOTAL OF 3 ACCOUNTS AND AGGRESS WITH HIMSELF.

Well, I found a way of getting internet, I found an old copy of backtrack 3 :)
[HTC Wildfire S] klacenas:
WOW. Can't believe what i'm seeing here. If only devs can work together and build the most stable ICS Sense 4 rom!

Edit: Feel like wanting to learn porting roms myself.. if only i have the skills like you guys..

2.type there:

netsh wlan set hostednetwork mode=allow ssid=(NetworkName) key=(NetworkKey)

keyUsage=persistent

3.then go to adapter settings and turn on internet sharing for Mircosoft Virtual WiFi Miniport Adapter ( default its wireless network 2)

to start wifi: netsh wlan start hostednetwork

to stop wifi: netsh wlan stop hostednetwork

i own dell inspiron 1545(not good for gaming).just installed window 8cp and noticed that all my games now runs much smoother then on win7.as it is latest build there is no need of installing latest driver as it is the part of installation.

here is the list of working games list.

1.call of duty mw1,2,3

2.medal of honor 2010

3.assassins's creed 1&2

honestly cant say its faster but one things for sure, its not slower and given all the debug code running still and the early state of the drivers its only going to get quicker!

BF3

MW3

TF2

AC Brotherhood

Metro 2033

Dead Island

Works generally better on Windows 8 due to optimized drivers and use of less resources. Windows 7 was never really "good" at games, but obviously depends on the game...

And as mentioned its just in pre-beta, and therefore will most likely get better and better, hopefully!
[Windows 8 General] derpotato:
well there is a lot of game that runs really smooth.

its because w8 use less resources .

here is the list :

[Windows 8 General] mathijs727:
Will the improvements of windows 8 be really noticable when you have a high-end computer?

I can imagine the difference being quit big on a old/cheap computer that doesn't have that many resources, but when your using high-end the recources needed to run windows 7 is just a fraction of the resources available.

^ The only game I play :(

My laptop is i7 990x, 12gb ram, 560m nvidia 1.5gb card... and windows 8 makes it even smoother. I get random crashes on occasions from some drivers that i guess still need work, but all my games load alot faster with windows 8. Its alot more noticable.
[Windows 8 General] ShadowEO:
The drivers probably need a lot of work still. We are only in the previews right now lol.
[Windows 8 General] zedxda:
Any chance somebody compared it to Ubuntu? And come to think of it, I don't know how Ubuntu compares to Windows 7 for that matter! I'm thinking of having a dual OS setup, Windows 7 for work (since it never crashes) and one of either Windows 8 or Ubuntu for gaming (since Windows 7 requires alot of resources).
[Windows 8 General] pink401k:
Gaming on Ubuntu is quite the hassle. I run steam through Ubuntu, but getting each game to work is a process. I'd stick to windows for gaming for now. More developers are porting to Linux, which is great, though. (Today's Humble Indie Bundle, for example)
