Trouble

I have the newest energy ROM with this app cooked in. When I run it, go through the first instructional page, It says "Ready to accept connections" but the loading circle bar thing is still spinning and my laptop cannot find any connections. I've tried running the app "Wifi Router" from the start menu. I've tried going through Com Manager and clicking on internet sharing but the loading bar perpetually circles. I recently flashed a new rom thinking it would fix but it didnt.

Any suggestions?

I have a touch pro 2 btw. T-Mobile

Wifi internet sharing for HTC HD2 (Instructions Please!)

How do you install the wifi app to the HTC HD2 and does it work?

:mad:
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] kmv21:
Install on HTC HD2 works great. Install on Dimond, now it scrolls fine but application will not start WIFI . Any help appreciated.

I have a Sprint TP2, stock rom, WM 6.5.

I cannot for the life of me figure out how to get this to work. I installed the cab...how do I find the program?

Yes, I've read through the thread, but I can't see anything that spells it out for me. I'm sure it's my own stupidity, but please help!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] apax:
its under the window folder, you need to create a shortcut to the start menu...

the instructions is on this thread in earlier post...please read the thread first...:)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] DeputyStankus:
I did read the thread. I don't see it in the windows folder. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling.

You're talking about the folder in the main memory called "Windows," right? I just don't see it there.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] DeputyStankus:
I just used this method, and it worked perfectly. Connected this way right now on Sprint HTC Touch Pro 2, WM 6.5.

So you didn't install comm manager first originally. :(

Has anyone ever figured out a fix/workaround to stop the random disconnects?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] slick69:
Thanks for this! Do I need to edit the registry to enable tethering before using this method or is that only for USB tethering?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] silenthatred:
I didn't edit the registry.

I don't have them. Is your screen turning off?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] DeputyStankus:
I'm not sure what makes you think that...

After the method described in this thread didn't work for me, the one described in that link did. The second method doesn't require the comm manager install, so far as I can tell. Is it wrapped into one of those other cabs?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] segadc:
No what happens is my Verizon Wireless Connection disconnects randomly. Sometimes I could go for up to 15 minutes without it doing. Somethings it takes only 5 minutes. So anyway I have to hit stop and then start again so the VZW connection will redial.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] kangy:
I installed the app and it worked fine on the first "test run" with the default settings so I changed the network name and WEP Key which connected one time (however it still broadcast the default network name) so I soft reset thinking that would refresh the broadcast name, and ever since then I can not get it to connect. It shows briefly on my phone and laptop as an available connection but never establishes a solid connection and the app just sits at "Ready to accept connections" and spins. I have let it sit for over 30 minutes and nothing...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] silenthatred:
Yes it is.

I installed this on my hd2 stock ROM, didn't work with my psp or ps3. so I uninstalled.

But strangely now when I click at the bar at the top of the screen usually it would bring up the comms manager, but now it brings up winmo page which I have to click which in turn brings up the comms manager? Strange.

Also i cant get into the Backlight settings now - settings- sound and display- backlight.

I click on it but it wontwork??

Great idea for an app, but i cant get it to work for psp or ps3.

Iwill probably have to do a hard reset now

TP2 on verizon's stock 6.1 ROM, as I've never flashed.

I installed the app, did not change the SSID, and had it working as a wireless connection for about 15 minutes. After that, it stopped, and only shows up in my laptop as a peer-to-peer connection that will not let me access the internet.

Is there a setting on the phone that I need to change that would make it a standard wireless connection again? Or is there a setting in my laptop configuration that would let me get to the internet through a peer-to-peer connection? I have searched the message and I don't seem to find an answer. If there is one and I'm just not knowledgeable enough to understand it, I apologize.

Update: Connection works just fine, was a problem in my laptop that was preventing the internet connection. Kudos to the developer for a great app!

Backlight Help

I installed this and it works just fine on my stock Sprint TP2. Only problem is, the backlight settings don't seem to matter no matter what's running.

I get why it needs to be on when using the router function, but when I leave the router function the backlight will remain on indefinitely no matter what the timeout setting is. This is an issue overnight when I get an email and the backlight stays dimmed for hours at a time. Anyone else run into this?

Any one get this to work on stock verizon wm6.5 rom?

Tried several times to get it to work and can not seem to get it to connect.

Always says 'There is no available internet connection. Do you want to set up the internet connection?'

Clicking Yes takes me to the Connections settings.

I have CM_Guardian service disabled and I have push email configured for my work Exchange account if any of that makes a differnce.

Realy would like to get this work vs. paying for WMWifiRouter.

Thanks.

EDIT: Works just fine. Had to start the CM Guarding service back up then it connects just fine. Glad I looked at that before going to WMWifiRouter method. Thanks.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] silenthatred:
The backlight being kept on is normal behavior. Because the backlight off puts the phone in standby, which turns off wireless. At least it turns it off on my phone.

hi,

i managed to install the app on my HTC Snap, wm6.5 Standard, non-touch screen phone, however, i can't change any setting as the app seems to be for touch screen phones, i can't scroll nor edit any setting...

seems so near to get it working but yet a step away, is there any ways that i can get it to work on the htc snap?

thanks all!

Sprint Touch Pro2

Working great on my:

Sprint

HTC Touch Pro2

Stock Firmware

ROM Version 2.04.651.4

Thank you!

I could not get internet sharing via USB or Bluetooth to work (kept getting user name invalid messages) and am surprised that the QVGA Version of Mobile Wifi Router Works.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] silenthatred:
Yes, don't let your phone go to standby, since that turns off the wireless adapter to save battery. A function of standby mode, not the application, but would obviously affect this application since it uses the wireless adapter.

No. If you want that functionality, you need a real router.

It is a cab file. It installs like any other cab file.

No, it is made for touch screen phones ONLY. Unless you want to re-write the app for non-touchscreen models that is.

Internet sharing app via USB and bluetooth require you to connect to Sprint to authenticate (by default on the stock rom anyways) so if you don't have a tethering service, you will get the auth failure messages. This program just uses the wireless adapter to share your phone's internet connection, basically sending the requests as if you were browsing directly from your phone, which doesn't require authentication, so that's why it works. ;)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] hardnail:
i think rewriting the app is not a solution for me now.. :P

i would need to refresh my vb.net... and i've not try written an app for mobile yet... maybe i should download the sdk and start creating some simple apps to refresh my vb.net... :P

back to the wifi router app, any idea whether the settings are stored in any files where i can manually edit?

thanks!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] hitekredneck:
I don't want to ruffle any feathers but need to ask, where does this app install to as far as folder/filename.exe? I need to know so I can set s2u2 to exclude this app so the phone won't lock or sleep while it is loaded and I can't find it anywhere on my device or on the memory card after install. But it does create the icon and works like a charm!!!!

HTR
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] hardnail:
hi,

from the shortcut file, it's pointing to \windows\ , the exe file is in there.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] hitekredneck:
What exactly is the name of the exe file? That would make it much easier to spot. Maybe I should have asked that in the first place. LOL

I had suspected that \windows\ was most likely the install location.

Thanks for the help ..... HTR

No Available Internet Connection

Similar to a prior post - tried several times to get it to work and can not seem to get it to connect.

Always says 'There is no available internet connection. Do you want to set up the internet connection?'

Clicking Yes takes me to the Connections settings.

The prior post talks about starting the CM_Guardian service. What is the CM_Guardian service? I have looked for HTC_CM_Guardian and cannot find it on the device.

It is a stock HTC HD2.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] omeinv:
I ran into what you're talking about. Sometimes after I disconnect, and stop and close the WiFi router, the phone will not go into stand-by mode (other times it will, so I guess it hangs up somehow sometimes). Then when you go into "start>settings>sound & display", and try to access the "backlight" menu, it will not open. However, if you go into "start>settings>all settings", then "system>power>backlight", you can then access and correct your backlight settings there (the WiFi apparently unchecks the "turn device off after..." box for both battery and on-charger.

Apparently any time the WiFi program is opened, it disables the "backlight" tab in the initial "settings>sound & display" area. however, it doesn't always uncheck the boxes in the underlying backlight settings. That seems hit or miss.

Sorry, this isn't a perfect fix I know, but it's the best I can come up with.

(Mine is a Sprint TP2, with WM 6.5)

Can you post a list of the specific registry entries changed? I tried this on my Tilt 2(AT&) with no luck. I get an error about "AVN" or something like that. I also found that I could no longer synch with activesync. Now when I plug in the USB and select to "sync with activesync" it still wants to go to the internet connection sharing and then disconnects because of the error. I got around this by going into activesync and disabling the " allow wireless connections while connected" box, but it's not right, and also it appears my push email from the exchange server isn't working. I can manually send/receive but it is no longer automatically downloading mail from the server. Any clues?

This does seem to work on my HTC LEO, but although I can get a WiFi connection to it there is no DHCP so is this only an ad-hoc connection that we would have to manually set up addresses for?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] woody1:
I have this installed and working ok on my AT&T Tilt2 (using the stock ROM). In fact, this app was my primary internet access while I spent 2 weeks in rural France last month. The only problem I've noticed is that I have to restart the phone before I use the app or else I get frequent disconnects from WiFi.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] JasperJanssen:
Worked first time for me on my Pro2 with stock Dutch 6.1 ROM, too. Took me a while to figure out how to turn it off, I didn't realise it was an app shown in the task manager at first since I was starting it from the control panel.

Now the question. I ticked "use these settings without asking" at some point, and now I can't figure out how to change those settings *at all*. Am I missing a control, or is there perhaps a registry key I need to hack, or what?

Ipad

Hi guys, trying to get his to work with my HD2 and iPad. The iPad see's the wifi point ok and let's me put in the wep key, even tells me it is connected in the connections screen.

However, once I go out to the main screen the wifi icon top left disappears and if I launch safari or the mail program it says it isn't connected to the Internet.

Any ideas?

DHCP server on Omnia not issuing addresses/functioning

Tom: Great work btw. I have an Omnia 910 (Bell Canada) which I added internet connection sharing to since the phone did not have it. I also installed the topaz connection manager as per your recommendations. CM Internet sharing does not however start a dhcp server, and therefore my pc/ipod etc will not route to the internet via the phone since it does not get an ip address, dns and default gw. Just as an aside, I tried WMWIFIrouter and it does work. So, what registry item do I need to kick to get the phone to issue ip addresses when your CMInternet Sharing program is run?

Oh, also to everyone else on Bell Canada with a $50 or more smartphone plan. Tethering is now included but you must call bell customer service to have the feature added to your phone. Once done, you can then use your 500, 1G, etc data in plan. Without calling first, your tethering will be charged out of plan.

So, Tom, back to my question, any ideas on how to kick the dhcp server into action?

This app is the best. Am using it right now on my laptop wigth my Sprint Touch Pro 2. I tried it with my Sprint Mogul but never worked and since I got my new phone it worked perfectly. I can download small files, watch movies and check my emails etc. I just want to put in my review of the app which i've been using for months without no problem. Sometimes the network cuts off because of watching movies but once I restart the phone on turn it off and turn back on it works fine.

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Paulo Marques:
Well, I had the same problem as you, so I had a look at the cab to see what changes were done to the registry. I found that the cab installs 2 files to the windows folder (HTCScroll.dll and HTCScroll2.dll). I can't say if I had them before or not, and if they were replaced by the installation of this cab, but the fact is that by simply renaming them (I was not able to delete them) and restarting I got the drop down menu back again, and everything seems to be working perfectly, including the wifi internet sharing.

This was on a 6.5 stock ROM by the way

minor issue

Hello. I downloaded the program and love it. It works perfectly with one minor issue. When I'm not using it and I try to connect my phone to my wifi at home or any other wifi for that matter it doesn't allow me to connect. My passwords are correct and i have verified that the program itself is the issue. I uninstalled it and I was able to connect to my wifi at home again. I re-installed it and I was still able to connect. I ran the program and turned it off. I tried to re connect my phone and it wouldn't do so. Any help would greatly be appreciated. I have a U.S. Tmobile HD2 running the stock rom with "cookies home tab".

Disable Wifi shutdown on standby

Ok, i know this was posted before and for the life of me i cannot find it. Someone posted a Registry hack that made it so when you hit the power button to turn the screen off and put the phone into standby that it stopped the phone from turning off the Wifi antenna. If any knows where i can find this post or can repost for the HTC Titan/Mogul that would be so appreciated. TY.

XDA-Wifi-Sharing does not work

Unfortunately it does not work on my HTC HD2

The network is seen by my PC, but as "unknown network" and no connection with PC after entering name and password.

I find in the properties of network :

- key : WPA2-PSK and not WEP (not the same length)

- radio 802.11n (my PC is b/g)

For installation I followed instructions posted above :

- turn off wifi on my device

- soft reset

- install Xda-Wifi-Sharing

- soft reset

Thank for helping me

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] silenthatred:
That means the "unknown network" is not your phone, unless you phone has an n wireless radio, which I doubt. This application also doesn't use WPA2, so there is another reason it's not your phone.
