Has anyone tested if it works on our tab or not....Plus does anyone know ho to find the power output of our tab's usb host mode????

I'll be geting my new usbotg cable soon so i'll also try n post the result....

For those who don't know about

pppwidget

, its a which allows you to use your 3G/2G stick(dongle) on your tab using the otg cable...

[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] proudfoot:
Hi thanks for this information, I tried this and it requires extra kernel modules (option, which is not included in cm10 kernel).
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kan_bleach:
Can you please tell the steps you took and the result you got...This isn't supposed to need any modules except usb_modswitch which it already include....It works on CM10 nexus 7 too...Which dongle did you use???
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] proudfoot:
Yup, it works it requires couple of modules not included in cm10 p5100 kernel, i already build the modules (see attachment) . Enjoy :)

I uses zte cdma modem, that modem requires 'option' module but most 3g/CDMA dongle uses this module.

You just need to copy those modules to /system/lib/modules.

edit: forgot to actually attaching the modules ~_~
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] proudfoot:
Update: Vpn doesn't seem to work with pppwidget. :(

Update2: works, needs to manually set the gateway
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kan_bleach:
cool...i'll get back to you in couple of days(waiting for my new otg cable)... can you please give the .c file for the modules also....still learning all this stuff so wlll be helpful....
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] proudfoot:
clone it from here -> https://github.com/cmenard/android_kernel_samsung_espresso10

as for compiling it follow/adapt from this tutorial -> http://stevechui.blogspot.com/2011/10/compiling-kernel-modules-tunko-for.html
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kan_bleach:
Its giving 'port not found'....any solutions??

Did you directly connected the dongle to tab or used a powered hub???
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] proudfoot:
Directly, what the log (it should be in /sdcard/pppwidget/log/) say?

edit: actually with this -> http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-EPL-1PL0BEGXAR-USB-Connection-Kit/dp/B005518J6Q it's still count as directly right? :P
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kan_bleach:
Yup that's direct :D

Checked the log...mod_switch successful, but loading option module fails...option.ko is in the correct folder..

I tried insmod but it says operation not permitted...

Tried su and then insmod but then it says failed (trying using terminal emulator)..
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] proudfoot:
Your option.ko probably not compatible with the kernel, try to do

strings option.ko | grep vermagic
uname -a

and compare both output, it should be similar.

also if you use insmod I think you'll need to insmod usb_wwan.ko first, because option.ko depends on that module, so it should be

insmod usb_wwan.ko
insmod option.ko

then, move the pppwidget to launcher and plug the dongle.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] proudfoot:
Have you try to insert those modules manually first, before running pppwidget and plug-in the dongle? I think we use the same dongle, so it should works ~_~

anyway this is how i get this to work:

1. create directory /data/loca/modules/ on tab

2. move all those modules (option.ko, usb_wwan.ko, ppp_async.ko) to this directory.

3. su and insmod all those modules:

insmod /data/local/modules/usb_wwan.ko
insmod /data/local/modules/option.ko
insmod /data/local/modules/ppp_async.ko

5. move pppwidget to launcher and plug the dongle.

optional:

create this script and put it in /data/local/userinit.d/93loadmod directory

#!/system/bin/sh

/system/bin/insmod /data/local/modules/usb_wwan.ko
/system/bin/insmod /data/local/modules/option.ko
/system/bin/insmod /data/local/modules/ppp_async.ko

so it will load all those modules at boot time.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kan_bleach:
I am doing the same thing...but insmod is giving error

When i run the insmod command i get

insmod: init_module 'usb_wwan.ko' failed(Exec format error)
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] proudfoot:
From a bit of googling it looks like your module is not build for your kernel (or even build for wrong architecture), what is your kernel? and where do you get the modules, do you compile it yourself or is it from somebody else?

try to do dmesg after you do insmod to see more information.

btw, the module that i have posted only works for p5100 and cm10 kernel (3.0.8-CM-g11fad65)
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kan_bleach:
I used the modules you posted...I am using CMOC-10 kernel....Maybe that is the issue...But the kernels are supposed to be identical except for the OC and the governors feature...i am on 3.0.8-CM-gbd034d0
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] proudfoot:
Yup that the problem, it needs to have the same extra version number even though it comes from same source. I guess I could compile it for you.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kan_bleach:
Please do...
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] proudfoot:
Here, I hope it works because it comes from cm10 source, I only change the extra version to match yours.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kan_bleach:
Thanks i'll try and post the result...can you give me the github link for the cm10 kernal for our tab???
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] proudfoot:
I already posted that yesterday :P check page one.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kan_bleach:
and the errors gone....Thanks man, couldn't have done it without you...thoght the dongle i have is not registered right now so can't say whether internet will work or not(most probably it will cause i got the connect option)....

edit: sily me...i did actually downloaded the kernal when you posted the link....

Dear Developers,

I bought almost 2 month ago an p3110 tablet. I had before the p1000 with the 3g module, but I needed to swith it to the newer one. I must say, I like it even more. Some weeks ago I started burrzing the google for some soloution to use mine with an 3g modem. Then is found your thread. It would so awesome, if I could use my modem with my tab! Could you please give me some advices how to use the attached modules?

My tabs parameters:

Android ver: kwbr espresso 4.1.1 rooted

Kernel: 3.0.31-523998

I have an huawei 3565, a huawei 3765 and a zte k3850 usb modem.

Please post me some links, where I can find some information about compiling these modules, or the best would be, if maybe you build them for me :)

Thank you very much!

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] schelde_sun:
Hey guys,

hope someone can help me.

I've the feeling that my light sensor might be damaged.

The setting is on automatic light regulation and i've the feeling that the

screen is very dark. Is there any possiblity to check if the light sensor still works fine?

I've already put my finger for a few seconds on it and nothing changes.

I also read in the guide that the screen should wake up when you wipe over the switched off device.

Unfortunately nothing happens when i do so.

Thanks a lot for your support :o
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gee2012:
Autobrightness has been too dark since the S2. The S3 also suffers from that bug as does the Note 2. Unless Samsung fixes it with a update you`ll have to wait for a hack and root the phone to be able to change it.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] schelde_sun:
Thanks a lot for this information. I didn't know this, as it's my first Samsung mobile.

But my impression is that it worked fine, and unfortunately the note 2 fell down at weekend and

now i've the feeling that the regulation is not correct since then. Is there any test to try if the light sensor still works?

And normally the switched off screen should wake up when i swipe over the screen, right? Because it doesn't work, or is it necessary to set up some settings?

Thanks a lot again for the help!
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] D3_:
I think there's a light sensor test in the service menu (can't remember the dialer code to access it though) and for the phone to wake when you swipe over the screen you need to enable "Quick Glance" in Settings > Motion

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zhuk0v:
Hi,

First of all, I did a forum search and it seems that not a lot of people are experiencing the same problem as me with the GS3 (almost all related entries are about HOX).

I own an international Galaxy S3, recently updated to Jelly Bean (Vodafone Spain firmware). Thing is multitasking management in my device is a complete crap... for instance, if I open the Kindle app (or the web browser or any other app), then open another app, wait 20 secs and open Kindle again through the multitasking button... it works as expected, reopening the app in the same state it was... but if I wait around 4 or 5 minutes, multitasking doesnt work, this means when I try to reopen the previous app, the S3 redraws it (refreshes it) so I lose the page i was reading on Kindle or the webpage and scroll I had opened in Chrome, etc etc etc.

It just seems to me that memory management in this device goes like this: "Do a kill -9 to every running app process after a given (short) amount of time".

I really like Android and all that but, coming from an iPhone 4 as my previous phone, I've got to say that multitasking management in iOS was far superior... I could reopen apps that had been several hours in background and it always saved the app state, never experiencing these annoying "refreshes" or "redraws" or whatever it's called.

Is there any fix for this? Maybe some custom ROM with better memory management??

There are several threads about this already... I know, because I made one of them ;) and there was another one with the same subject. ("Multitasking issues?" And the other one was something with ram

To the topic, I'm having the same issues, but on the galaxy S2 I didn't experience such problems. I don't know but something is really f***** up with the memory management...

You can try making a swap partition, there is a thread somewhere on here about how to make one. That'll dump some memory on the SD CARD. Instead of killing the app..

I can assure you it is not a general android problem. As on the s2 with the same amount of memory (1gb) I didn't have any problems. I thought this phone would be an upgrade.. it is in many ways, but the memory management is really a huge let down...

So my recommendation for you is to first try to remove the bloatware (apps of Samsung or other using memory which you don't need) and see if it makes a change.

If you're still not satisfied try the swap partition.

This phone with it's current software configuration needed 1.5gb of Ram, but with some mods and tweaks you'll be fine!

Put Samsung and Google against the wall...

I'd argue that it is a general android issue. I had exactly the same problem with a htc One X, which also has a high res screen and only 1Gb of mem.

I think the problems with the S3 is ignored because lots of the reports on the web about the S3 is about the US version, which runs fine on it's 2Gb.

This IS a big issue, and i wish someone with a bit of authority would stand up and put Samsung and Google against the wall.

The customers shouldn't have to tweak the OS by adding adding virtual memory management, and whatnot to get basic functionality working.

I had no problems running web radio software in the background on my htc Desire, but with my S3 I can't have anything in the background basically.

This really needs to be resolved. I'd rather have a simpler launcher and having RAM enough to keep stuff running in the background.

I'm running JB since a week ago now, and the behaviour is the same.

I must say I'm dissapointed with Android, first having to live with the Desire for years, that came with next to no space to install apps and now th S3 having no RAM to run in...

Remember, this is the first Jellybean update batch, there should be tons of updates later fixing bugs instead of getting it "working", 1GB is enough when managed properly.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zeppelinrox:
The US 2gb version has a max hidden app limit of 50 hence no complaints.

The others have a 20 max hidden app limit.

Most android devices have a 15 max hidden app limit and some sense roms it's as low as 10.

How do I know?

Because I fixed it :D

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hassebasse:
The problems are identical on 4.0.4, and I've not seen any acknowledgement on the issues neither from Samsung or Google. I used to think the Apple believers were the most tolerant to absent functionality, but this really puts us on the top as android users. I would probably accept it from a low end device for $100, but the S3 is the pinnacle, the superphone, in short, the dogs bollocks, or awesome, like a hundred billion hotdogs.

I think it just stinks and the thought of having to keep using the S3 every day for a year or two in the current sorry state really pisses me off. The thing is it's my work phone, and I don't expect I'll get a new premium phone if I try 'scrapgrading' it. If it was mine, I'll sell it in a hartbeat.
