[Moto X Q&A] icrf:
I'm having connectivity issues with the wifi hot spot. I have a Moto X Developer Edition on Verizon with a grandfathered unlimited plan. I unlocked the bootloader and rooted. I ran the commands in this thread to load a new entitlement check apk, and everything looks like it's working. "Checking subscription status..." pops up briefly on load and then goes away. An access point is created and I can successfully connect to it with another device (Nexus 7). So far, everything looks exactly as it should.

The problem is there is no data. I can access data from the phone itself just fine, so I have a cellular data connection. If I disconnect the Nexus 7 and connect to the local wifi network, it gets data just fine, so the device itself is fine. When I try to hit any web page while connected to the Moto X's hotspot, I get the standard "This web page is not available." Trying to ping something from a terminal loses all packets.

It's acting as if the networks aren't bridged/routed properly on the phone. How do I go about troubleshooting this? Are there log files somewhere I can look at?

edit: I should also note that android-wifi-tether, which I used on my rooted HTC Thunderbolt previously, acts like it works fine, but there is no wifi access point broadcast/visible. I have no idea if the problems are related.
[Moto X Q&A] thatdude02:
I have had a similar problem on my unrooted Moto X. Could use the tether and connect however no data could be transmitted and no web pages could be loaded.

To solve it all I did was go to settings and retype in my APN. I am on Koodo mobile with an unlocked Rogers Moto X so this solution might not work with you but it's just something I thought I could suggest. Hopefully this works! Best of luck.
[Moto X Q&A] icrf:
Unfortunately, it doesn't do anything for me. Did you have data on the phone directly before that? I thought the APN would affect all data, not just tethering.
[Moto X Q&A] KidJoe:
On my VZW X Dev Ed, I have been successful using used the wifi_tether_v3_4-experimental1.apk from https://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether/

change device profile to galaxy nexus (cdma/lte)

check box: wifi-driver reload

check box: enabled routing fix

and it works fine. Sometimes its a little slower (like 20-30 seconds) to hit "start" until my laptop or ipad will see the hot spot, but it always works.
[Moto X Q&A] icrf:
Strange. I had tried that version of that app before, following some youtube video, same settings as you listed, but setting the device profile to generic ICS/JB (wlan0) and I could never see an access point created. Now when I go back and do it, the access point pops up fine. I can connect and get data.

It's a little quirky/buggy in that the AP name is always "wlan0" and changing the SSID doesn't change that. Also, I enabled encryption in the settings, but the connection remains open and unencrypted. That may just be part of the beta nature of the version of the apk. I used the non-beta release version in the Play Store on my HTC Thunderbolt and all that worked fine.

So it's functional if not ideal. I'll keep poking at it and will see if I can make sense out of the behavior I'm seeing. I'll post back if I learn anything.
[Moto X Q&A] KidJoe:
The version apk and settings I listed allow me to change the ssid and use encryption. In fact using that got it working on my X like it did on my thunderbolt.
[Moto X Q&A] icrf:
Something didn't turn off properly. Attached is the battery graph while it was plugged into my computer (an admittedly low current charging source). I saw my phone reboot just before I had to leave, cursed it for being too early for random reboots (the TB did a lot of that). Turns out tethering draws significantly more than 500 mA, killed the phone, which turned off, then recharged to 3% and rebooted, and that's what I saw.

Whatever that application does doesn't get logged by the Android battery monitor, as it was definitely the primary drain, but doesn't show up in battery settings. I don't think it did on my TB, either. It also didn't log data usage on the TB (haven't used enough on the X to tell yet). Seems like that application lives in a pocket outside what Android itself is set up to log. Is that a factor of most root applications?
[Moto X Q&A] KidJoe:
I don't see that problem. When I use it, I just get regular draw as if I'm viewing a movie on my phone via Netflix. Stopping and exiting the wifi tether app does seem to exit it and end battery draw.

I'm using stock 4.4 on my VZW Dev X. I rooted via unlocking the booloader, installing TWRP, booting to TWRP and installing/flashing SuperSU.

Other option is grab the APK in this thread -> http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2449534&page=2 and use it. And actually, that thread has you also check wifi-driver reload 2.
[Java for Android App Development] painlessDeath:
I am developing (currently in plan phase :D) a framework to allow developers to connect to a remote android machine while working on eclipse.

The idea is, there will be a java program running on the developer's comp, which will behave as an emulator and pass all the adb commands to a remote machine (mac, windows, or linux: over net). There will be another java client app on that remote machine which will receive those commands and give them to the local adb demon (which in turn will give it to the connected android device).

This will allow remote debugging where direct port forwarding is not possible, like solving specific customer's issue.

Does such a framework already exist?

Where can I find the documentation on how to emulate an android device and how does adb demon communicates with the device?

[8.9" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] suprkain:
A friend of mine has a kindle fire hd 8.9 which he wants me to root and put a custom rom on. The problem is he doesn't have the fastboot cable anymore. I'm pretty sure I wouldn't screw up his device but I just want to be extra cautious since it's not a device I own. Now my wife has a 1st generation kindle fire with the original plug/charger so I was wondering if that fastboot cable would work just as well. Sorry about the dumb question I just want to make sure I have everything covered before I work on my friends kindle.

Finally I find a way to solve this common problem:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2417377

I think that the cause of the problem is that the phone sees the power supply as an OTG devices, so I cut the data wires (white and green) from the usb cable and now works.

I hope this solve the problem for all devices.

In addition I recommend to enable Fast-Charge because without wires data's the phone cannot identify the charger as original htc and shows the message "slow charge".

Nb: fast-charge require a supported kernel like Team seven or ElementalX.

Actualy my htc mount Maximus 30 rom and team seven kernel.

Hi, not sure if this is the right section. If not, please move.

Basically each time I activate my phone's (Samsung S3 4.3 rooted) tethered Wi-Fi, to use the Internet on my iPad, someone can remotely connect and see what I'm doing. Even with WPA2 + strong ass password + MAC filtering. Why I know this is a long story, let's just say I have a stalker and he talks about his exploits to someone who's loyal to me. I'm assuming that it's possible since I've already have had my home Wi-Fi hacked with the WPS exploit.

Is there anything I can do? As in alternatives to stock app of anything else.
[Networking] Lgrootnoob:
Try https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.foxfi&hl=en

It is really easy for him to spoof the mac address of your ipad and bypass the mac filtering.

He can also collect your wpa2 handshake and crack it easily with enough time and enough Cuda cores on his gpu.

First, Try a random max character wpa2 password and keep changing it to make him irritated.

Second, go on the offensive with kali linux.

(Put dd-wrt on your router too and disable wps to stop his wpa attack + use strong wpa2 key-no words or phrases)

Third, figure his credentials out and report him to the police.

You could use Kismet to find out his device's mac address and you could use his signal strength to find out what house he lives in then report him to the police.
[Networking] raskol9987:
Thanks. I'l check this out.

I already secured my home Wi-Fi with DD-WRT, so the big deal is with the tethered connection. For now I've stopped tethering altogether.

So, I suppose this is clone of some Allwinner A10 tablet, but I would like to know which, so I can install some custom rom and possible newer Android. Currently I have 4.0.3. Any help here is appreciated.

Second issue I have is with recovery. It seems that default recovery does not mount it's internal storage and I can't put anything to flash. It recognizes some micro-SD cards, but unfortunately, the only one that recognized I sold with some old phone. Every other card and internal storage works fine when I boot the tablet in normal mode. I would buy another card, but I can't be sure it'll work in recovery. Any suggestion here, maybe to modify some files so it can mount internal storage?

Thanks in advance!

DO NOT TRY THIS

I too stripped one of the screws on the battery connector when I was replacing my phone's broken screen recently. It was two in the morning, and I had already spent two hours trying to disassemble the phone, with the majority of the time spent trying every method I knew to loosen the stripped screw. I was losing my patience. Finally, driven by frustration and exhaustion, I just said "**** it", and with my fingers I pried the connector off along with one of the mounting bosses by force. I was lucky because the mounting boss got ripped off of the PCB cleanly, with only a small bit of the PCB surface separated. No circuitry was damaged. I fixed my screen and now the phone functions perfectly without any loose parts. What's great about this is if I ever need to remove the battery again, there's one fewer screw to remove :victory:

I really shouldn't be allowed near electronics repair.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shimakaze:
If there isn't enough screw head to grip on for that to work, you can also try taking a razor and cutting a slot into the head so you can apply a flat screwdriver. Another option is to super glue/solder the tip of a screwdriver to the screw then apply torque, but it might be hard to get enough bonding strength on such a small surface.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] username8611:
if you can solder, try soldering an allen wrench or something similar directly to the screw. you might not be able to get the solder off once the screws our but at least it might be able to remove it.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] silverramsrt:
Solder won't stick to the screw. Welding or brazing is out too. I would try filing a slot and using a flathead screw driver as mentioned earlier. I would then try the super glue trick also mentioned earlier. Good luck, small screws are a pain. I deal with broken screws and bolts all the time. Patience is key. Don't rush it.

Epoxy or epoxy putty.

You can use either to attach a disposable screwdriver to the screw in question. Let either set for at least an hour.

You may need to rough up both surfaces a bit to get a good bond.

Phillips head screws and drivers are made to cam out so you don't strip the head. Either you're using the wrong size screwdriver or a worn tip. Go slow. Take your time.

Not that you'd be using a drill/driver but you see the same thing happen when the speed is too high and not enough torque. The bit ends up spinning in the head wearing away the slots.
