I haven't been able to get my wifi tether working. I've searched for hours but most of the post aren't very recent. I've tried adjusting the settings to many different combinations as mentioned in three other posts. I'm on baseband MC2, JB 4.1.2 and have tried two roms...Swampmonster 2.2/2.3 and Macks Allstar 5.0, as well as using both my PC and laptop to connect. I've used the TrevE mods that come with both roms as well as a couple of apps from the play store.

The same thing happens with every attempt, I connect to the AP but don't get any connection to the internet...DNS server is not responding.

I've recently changed from big red over to sprint and have had my N2 for about a week now. Is this a Sprint thing or is it just my unfamiliarity with my Note 2?

Any help would be much appreciated. Dexter's on tonight.....

Also tried WolfRom and USB tethering, still no connectivity

It's been working for me, basically. I'm on a stock deoxided MC2 ROM with Perseus kernal. I get an error but I don't know what it is, since the log gives another error about no file existing. The error I had before trying to reinstall WiFi and BusyBox was a routing fix failed error.

I used this at work for at least six hours to connect a tablet and laptop. I figure I'm using around 2GB to 6GB each night.

Unfortunately, you're going to have to keep experimenting. I suggest trying with just the defaults settings. See what happens. If not, try changing Driver reloads or none. Unfortunately, it's just a lot of trial and error.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jksell07:
Thanks. I don't give up easily...I'll get it working if possible. I'm just wondering if Sprint is blocking the tether because I connect right away with no errors but the "DNS Server is not responding".

I see you're from the bay area. I grew up in SF but haven't been back in a long time. I miss the beach...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jksell07:
Hey Zombie, why u messing with my thread :rolleyes::D
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] lovekeiiy:
Sprint should be blocking you unless there is something off on your phone. My issue, I think, has to deal with the BusyBox Linux binary library that got loaded. I'm assuming maybe a phone wipe and reflash may fix it.

Yea, I'm near the wine valley, actually. Although, I prefer to be back in San Diego.

I installed Goodness Noteworthy v1.0.8 ROM and get good wifi tethering of 3G. I haven't tested 4G as I don't get it yet.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] internetpilot:
I'm just running stock rooted MC2 with updated CSC data (Garwyn's) and the separate TrevE version of the Wifi Tether APK works like a charm. My kids just used it on 3G and LTE all the way down I-95 in Florida. Sometimes it would boot them all off when switching from LTE to 3G, but they'd reconnect without issue.

Not sure if that helps you, other than I'm using the very latest MC2 OTA and maybe you're still using a ROM based on the leak? I'm not a dev, so if I'm talking out of my posterior just disregard!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jksell07:
Got it working

I'm still not sure why I had problems when nobody else did on the respective threads for the roms I mentioned above.

I did get it going though...For the touchwiz roms I had to run ISWAT tether unlocker while my tether was active (It's on the Play Store).

Right now I'm running LiquidSmooth's AOSP rom and the native tether works great. I've been bouncing back and forth between nandroid

backups; I like TW most of the time but when I want to tether or am looking for speed/responsiveness I switch over to AOSP.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] ArcMage:
Is the problem of wifi tether under AOSP rooms on this device totally insoluble?

I've never found an answer to it, only directions to fixing it under TouchWiz or vague changelog entries about having 'fixed wifi tether' on Carbon and such, which did no such thing.

Standard wifi tether app 3.3b2 fails to start an access point. TrevE mod claims to start fine in the app's log, but no access point shows up on a scan. The mobile hotspot function in system settings also starts up, and even let's devices connect, but there's no data transfer.

I understand that there's something bad going on with Samsung's release of wifi drivers, so I'm just hoping that someone somewhere has looked into this.

Is there any other rooms that offer the kind of visual options that team venum does on their wicked sensations Rom. I like being able to change boot screens splash screens icons and anything else I can change to make it unique to me. Any help with this? I have the sprint sph-l710 version thanks

That's helpful. Thanks so much. If you read real close it'll say, similar to wicked sensations.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Ragnar:
Well they all do. That's why I was very vague. Every single rom has those options you mentioned just how they apply might be different.

Best advice is read the OP of the roms see which ones attract you and flash and try them until you find one your happy with.

The updates for that device are unfortunately controlled by Samsung, not Google. So your best bet is to flash to either takju/yakju, which can be accomplished via the guide mrgnex linked.

So you change it by flashing? (Sorry for the idiotic noob questions)

Yes. Basically:

1. Unlock bootloader if it isn't already. Note that this completely wipes your device, so backup pictures or whatever you don't want to lose in this process.

2. Flash factory image for takju or yakju your choice.

[MENTION=5385480]Phone_Logic[/MENTION] I just saw this thread. I can help you update over Teamviewer if you'd like. You have a new radio on your device which I'm sure a lot of folks here would like to try out.

I'd be happy to flash takju on your device and dump the radio at the same time. If you are interested, send me a PM.

EDIT: Actually, nevermind about the radio. I just checked the radio thread, and it seems like they already have that one.

Hi wessy123,

If you look at the bottom of the XDA2 there is a connector plug to charge the phone in the dock also to Activesync the pda to your comp, that's the part that I'm looking for as mine is goosed, can you help ? have you got one spare ? :D :D :D :D

Put XDA on e-bay there are loads of cheap charge/sync cables i buggered mine cost £3 to replace it.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] cruisin-thru:
Its not the sync cable he needs, I think he needs an old xda or ipaq 3800 series motherboard so he can desolder the connector and resolder to his own motherboard.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] Brennen:
re: connector Plug

The part that I'm looking for is the Connector Plug itself , that's connected to the motherboard, if you look at the bottom of the XDA2 you can see the plug.... inside the plug is a row of very fine connectors , on mine they are broken. :cry:
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] baddentist:
I can sell you charging/synch connector for $20 US

connector by itself so you don't have to use soldering tool to take it off the ipaq motherboard

Has anyone used this app? I've been using it since it replaced Life Contacts Beta (a year or two ago), but today, it stopped working, and I can't find it on play store anymore.

I'm running GoldenEye ROM, and it was working for a solid month on it before today. I tried removing and replacing the widget, but no luck.

I'll also take suggestions for replacements, barring a fix.

Anyone know what company Tesco Direct use for deliveries?
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] undercover:
No idea what delivery company. It is possible that it will get delivered on 28th, since I'm sure they already have stock. However, estimated time is because if they dispatch 1-2 days from release day, it will take weekend to get it delivered.

[Nexus 7 (2013) General] chris-c:
I don't think they want to confirm that they've dispatched them to be honest. I've checked a few other places and they couldn't tell me anything until I told them I wanted to modify the delviery address and it had to go to a few other people to confirm.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] undercover:
So my guess is that whoever is getting them tomorrow or day after will get dispatch confirmation either later today or tomorrow.

I spoke to Tesco yesterday, when they put up the pre-order they screwed up the delivery dates. If you ordered by the 26th then you got it on release day. Also mine is still showing as waiting for dispatched but then turned up this morning.

As someone said on this thread this is a problem for Tesco as they have a 3rd party sending them out. The only annoying thing is that there is no paper work in the box about the free accidental damage insurance they are offering.

All in all i have been playing with the tablet since 9 this morning and have not seen any of the problems the US models seemed to have, Although it was annoying that i had to go through 2 updates before i could use it.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] fairlight2x:
Got mine today from Tesco, ordered on the 15th of August. Tesco never updated the order page, so I contacted them to as when it would be dispatched and luckily it was dispatched already! My one is perfect, can't see any defects (yet). I only had one update and box says it was made 2013.08

There is some light bleed on mine, but so far acceptable. Will have a better look in the evening. Where can I find info about free accidental cover? I'll give them a call if we are supposed to get it.

You pay them £200 in return for a product which they then lose, but in return give you back £20? Isn't that illegal?
