[Nexus 7 General] Nickbert:
thanks for the suggestion

its actually not working with my n7 (paranoid android 2.23)

got the message unsupported kernel and not tetherable usb interface found, looks like this app is designed for pre 4.x devices
[Nexus 7 General] Milamber33:
There are a few apps which do this sort of thing, search and you should find one that works. Please note this kind of thing does require root.

Sweet mate, using ur ROM and setting route manually im able to use internet from usb, but only using linux as router, can't find the right driver for windows.

i know Google Play require 3g or wi-fi, but i read about an app who can emulate 3g/wi-fi using usb reverse tethering, can't remember the name of the app. Have any idea how to do that?

Thanks.

Noob question

Hey All,

Noob here needing help for the USB tether so that i can share my work PC's internet to my N7. (As access to wifi was recently restricted).

Anyways, here's where i am: I have a rooted 4.1.2 JB Nexus 7

Though its been said on a previous post that i need to "modify the files in the Jelly Bean source code and recompile the operating system."

How do i exactly do that? Is it thru your steps on modifying kernel/framework files?

I'd really appreciate any form of help!

Thanks guys!!!
[Nexus 7 General] psychart:
All modifications u can find attached here:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=32414798&postcount=17

I modified the files instead using cbdonohue to keep the last changes made by cm team.

If you need help to find the files and do the modifications i can help later when i get @ home.

But the changes its to enable usb tethering, which will enable a usb interface and configure your computer to use internet by N7.

Couldn't do in windows yet, but on linux its needed to delete default route inserted by usb tethering, configure ip_forward and NAT, in N7 its necessary to execute:

ip route add default via 192.168.42.XX # (XX is the ip of usb interface on your computer)

setprop net.dns1 8.8.8.8 # Google DNS

The only problem im facing its some apps (like Google Play, 9gag) check for wifi/3g connectivity to work, not working using only usb reverse tethering.

Im trying to work on an app who can "fake" a wifi connection, but no luck so far.

Would this trick work on ATT Samsung galaxy note 2 version?

Thanks
[Nexus 7 General] psychart:
Note already have tethering options, so i guess u asking about inverting the routes right?

I believe it will, after enable usb tethering, its basic linux routing.
[Nexus 7 General] scandiun:
Does this work on the Nexus 7 wifi only? I would like to use USB tethering to connect some computer via wifi, for example

No USB-tethering in the Nexus 10 is driving me nuts, would you have any idea how to modify the exynos kernel to activate RNDIS?
[Nexus 7 General] mid-kid:
How do i get that?
[Nexus 7 General] trevd:

There you go, get invloved! Also the search function works a treat on here as well, anything you're gonna ask has probably already been answered, saves typing aswell :D
[Nexus 7 General] CChap24:
I hate to sound completely helpless, but can someone make a video of how to do this?
[Nexus 7 General] psychart:
Because regular Nexus 7 doesn't have 3g, default usb tether is useless. But enabling as this post explain, and w/ basic linux routing i guess this is possible.

Depends on what you need, (build cm or patching or terminal commands). If its the entire process i suggest reading this!
[Nexus 7 General] CarlosML:
Hi,

I'm trying to connect my Nexus 7 to my cellphone, in order to use my 3G connection when I don't have a WiFi AP near.

After reading this thread, I understand that is possible to use N7 as RNDIS client, but you need to recompile the kernel to add RNDIS support and recompile the userland for adding the necessary settings to rc.d and the UI.

I was wondering if there's a more 'minimalist' approach. Following a guide from Gentoo (google for "Android USB Tethering" @ wiki.gentoo.com, I can't post links) and N7 kernel sources, I compiled rndis_host.ko and it loads correctly ('make tegra3_android_defconfig' shows that the rest of the kernel modules are already compiled). However, I can't do "ifconfig usb0 up" nor "ifconfig rndis0 up" (Unknown device). I guess the part that is missing is this

on property:sys.usb.config=rndis
write /sys/class/android_usb/android0/enable 0
write /sys/class/android_usb/android0/idVendor 18d1
write /sys/class/android_usb/android0/idProduct 4e23
write /sys/class/android_usb/android0/functions ${sys.usb.config}
write /sys/class/android_usb/android0/bDeviceClass 224
write /sys/class/android_usb/android0/enable 1
setprop sys.usb.state ${sys.usb.config}

'write' or 'setprop' don't seem to be callable from a Terminal, so I guess those are internal commands of rc.d.

- Are there equivalent commands in sh? (I guess "write" is something like doing echo value > /sys/class/xxx/xxx)?

- Is this even possible or I must recompile the whole OS?

Thanks!!
[Nexus 7 General] michaelkenward:
I do this with an app on my Android phone.

Portable Wi-Fi hotspot Free - Android Apps on Google Play

Much easier than trying to get my head around complicated programming tricks.

Use this on the phone then tell the Nexus to find and use its wifi.
[Nexus 7 General] psychart:
If you have 3g on your phone (and the phone have wifi), it's regular tethering.

USB Tethering is to use workstation internet connection on your device using a USB cable.
[Nexus 7 General] CarlosML:
michaelkenward and psychart, thanks, I'm already using BT for tethering, just curious about a solution that consumes less power.
[Nexus 7 General] CarlosML:
Following the instructions in this thread, I managed to enable RNDIS when the Nexus 7 is not acting as a host, using this in my terminal:

echo 0 > /sys/class/android_usb/android0/enable
echo 18d1 > /sys/class/android_usb/android0/idVendor
echo 4e23 > /sys/class/android_usb/android0/idProduct
echo rndis > /sys/class/android_usb/android0/functions
echo 224 > /sys/class/android_usb/android0/bDeviceClass
echo 1 > /sys/class/android_usb/android0/enable
setprop sys.usb.state rndis
netcfg rndis0 dhcp

However, when my Nexus 7 is acting as a host and even with rndis_host.ko loaded, it doesn't work. I get this in dmesg

<6>[ 595.787467] rndis_function_bind_config MAC: C2:8C:59:6E:2C:C1
<4>[ 595.787580] android_usb gadget: using random self ethernet address
<4>[ 595.787697] android_usb gadget: using random host ethernet address
<6>[ 595.792019] rndis0: MAC 2e:22:6c:a0:e7:94
<6>[ 595.792138] rndis0: HOST MAC 56:2c:6e:e8:bc:52

But rndis_host seems to do nothing. I guess the only way to this work is building the kernel with RNDIS Host support built-in, and not as a module.
[Nexus 7 General] O2Blevel:
In post #19, the OP states he had to manually bring up the usb interface when in host mode. Maybe try that.

Also in post #20, the CM10 build provided by the poster works. You may be able to pick up a few hints if you dig around in it. Wish I could be more helpful.
[Nexus 7 General] skyline159:
I have succesfully compiled one thanks to cbdnohue's instruction in this thread. I will upload it here for anyone who interested

cm-10.1-20130120-UNOFFICIAL-grouper.zip

MD5: 4B9C09AA7E028B04974E4B21A66315C2

This is build from CM 10.1 source without any modifications except the one in this thread to enable USB Tethering.

Please check the hash before you flash it.

Note: this zip does not contain Gapps, you'll need to download it from here gapps-jb-20121212-signed.zip and flash it after flashing the rom.

[Nexus 7 General] MouseWhite:
would this be breaked if i flash the lastest cm 10.1 without factory reset?
[Nexus 7 General] ObsidianX:
Yes, as the change is made on the system level not the user level. A factory reset only touches the user's data (/data folder). Another mod will have to be made on CM10.1.
[Nexus 7 General] bftb0:
almost effortless w/ CM 10.2

Old thread, but I thought I'd add a success report.*

I'm posting this via USB (wired) tethering, with an old (Gingerbread) rooted phone running Android Wired Tether v1.4, and CyanogenMod 10.2 (Nightly 20130922) on the N7.

The only thing needed to bring the interface up on the N7 was

#netcfg usb0 dhcp

from a root shell.

I did not use a dev kernel - just the CM kernel.

* just so it's clear, this is a grouper (2012) N7 acting as an RNDIS client of the phone using an OTG cable.
[Nexus 7 General] ritv12345:
I got tethering option (USB,Bluetooth&hotspot) on my Nexus 7 2012 WiFi Only(aka Grouper) running kitkat 4.4.2 stock on Mkernel using this xposed module called KitKat SMS+tether enabler.

Works great but it brings up the emergency call option on the menu

Should even work on any ROM or even any other phone,tablet with the same problem as its just an xposed module.
[Nexus 7 General] bitflow999:
Hi, after upgrading to android 5.1.1 the xposed module isn't working anymore becouse its not updated yet...how did you solved if you did it?

I really need usb tethering becouse I use the tablet as a controller for music softwares and it needs to send data over the network..it is really a shame that asus did not think of this...there are lots of apps that uses the net to work with pc..internet its not the main reason for needing tether!!

i have the samsung galaxy note gt-n7000 the problem is when i want to use wifi i have to turn on the data too because i can't use just wifi i get no connection anybody have any suggestions
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] letters_to_cleo:
you can't use both of them at the same time... remember your phone has 2 radios.. Wifi, 3G.. your phone would switch radios from one to the other. IF you want to use wifi, it turns off 3G and vice versa. You can't have them both. Though you can connect your phone to your home router and at the same time mobile data would be ON. but when your going to go online... your phone would toggle between two radios and normally it would be using WIFI and temporarily disabling your 3G/4G connection. When your done with WIFI and turn it off, then that will be the time 3G will be enabled again.

That's how it is usually implemented.. not just with the Note but with any smartphones out there.

Hello to all,

Just a small question:

I try to change the rom on my galaxy note still in android 2.3.6 to go to the LRQ from germany.

And for that I use Heimdall 1.3.1 on ubuntu 12.04

When I press the start button in the flash section, i have that kind of error :

Handshaking with Loke...

ERROR: Failed to receive response !

That is strnge because when I detecte my phone evrything is ok..

And I suced in uplowding my pit file so the usb link seems ok...

What do you think ?

Thank a lot for your help.

[Asus Transformer TF700] ccapasso:
I recently got the new TF700T work and am thinking about putting the Zagg Invisible Shield on the screen only. However we have the keyboard dock too, and I'm concerned about how well this will work.

Does anyone have the screen protector on theirs and use the dock? If so, are there any problems getting it to dock properly or does the protector start to lift up due to adding thickness?
[Asus Transformer TF700] merlin_the_magician:
I had the shield and the skin on the original transformer with dock and had no problems with it, see pic of skin below. As long as it installs correctly it should be fine. That being said I never bothered with my TF201 or my TF700 - Gorrila glass helps minimise scratches on the screen only problem is that the back isn't protected and you get finger marks on the screen. The shield makes the screen grippier so not as nice to use as no skin but that is the trade off you make:D

heyy thnx for d awesome guide..it helped me in many ways!!

i just need to confirm just one thing!!

To unlock bootloader of XMP sk17i..the official method is by following the steps at sony website or

using unlocking tools?

i may want to relock bootloader agn..pls help!
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] iONEx:
Official method is the easiest. And you can easily re-lock it later.

But they store your IMEI number. And later at service they could look that up and deny warranty.

Even though I've seen and heard many reports that ppl just re-locked bl again and sony repaired under warranty. So I'm not sure...

To do testpoint method you need to unpeel the sticker underneath the battery. So sony could se that you tampered with the sticker.

And then it's bye bye warranty. But if you do it in a way it can't be noticed.... This way they don't have you IMEI stored, and you don't loose those infamous DRM keys. TBH I don't give a rats ass about DRM :P It's pretty much useless. You can also re-lock it the same way.

So you're gonna have to decide. Since both methods come with pros and cons. IMO official is better, but you decide :D

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] iONEx:
Have you chosen LOCKED bootloader in installation menu?

You have to install fastboot. In the guide it says to install android SDK which contains fastboot.

If you've installed android SDK, go to C:\Program Files\Android\android-sdk\platform-tools (default install path).

Hold shift and right click in the folder, select open command window here. It'll open command prompt. Type the command....

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] mihahn:
Flash a prerooted kernel for your software version (for example rage kernel for ics or gb, depends on which rom you are currently on) and root should be there again.

To check if it's unlocked, boot phone up, type *#*#7378423#*#* -> service info -> configuration -> rooting status: bootloader unlocked: yes then you are done ;)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] iONEx:
Try flashing a kernel! If it flashes succesfully, bl is unlocked :)

Also custom kernels are pre-rooted. So you get root automagically by flashing a custom kernel.

thanx alot for your help!!

now getting on to the next part...whch is the best kernel out there best suited for my XMP sk17i?:D
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] mihahn:
For performance rage kernel or kernel panic, for battery life maybe mesa :)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] iONEx:
hm. that's a very subjective matter. And everyone will tell you different.

You've got ICS and GB kernels. I find stock or Xkernel for GB the best.

For ICS I'd narrow it to MESA and PANIC kernels. Maybe eXtended kernel too because of it's batt life.

But you have to test it for yourself. You've just begun your journey :D
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] aXel047:
LOL..what if i want both..being a lil greedy i knw! :P

bt is der any whch balances out perf and battery life?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] iONEx:
If you're a gamer, choose MESA. If you're aiming at batt life, I would say eXtended kernel. eXtended is basically stock kernel with added functionalities like CWM, root, init.d support etc.

TRY IT! ;)

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] iONEx:
cyanogenmod uses it's own kernel, FXP. So you can't use any other with it or some things will stop working if you don't get a bootloope first.

ICS ROM= ICS kernel, GB ROM= GB kernel

All custom kernels are based on stock sources, so they work with stock based ROMs. Anyhow, read the ROMs thread, the dev will probably say which kernels he recommends to use with his ROM.

Same to you :D

Don't know what exactly happened, but if you're having trouble charging, maybe you're missing the chargemon binary in /system/bin?

Anyway, I suggest you flash firmware, root the phone again, install CWM, setup you ROM, make a NANDROID backup in CWM, and THEN and only then you try flashing ROMs!

I always say to ppl make a backup first! Exactly cuz of these things :-/l
