Did anyone find a solution for this, preferably using USB cable?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] trahman79:
I also need the same solution.

Because>>

# At my office I cannot connect my phone to WiFi netowrk because it 802.1x type.

# The WiFi is configured in a way in Windows that it does not accept Ad-hoc connections (Company security policies!)

# HTC sync does not have option to provide internet to my hand set visa USB cable.

Just to mention, I am running desire rom on my HD2 so I use to enjoy internet via usb cable using Active Sync for WM 6.5.

So, I believe I have reached the same impasse as the first post....Any solution? Anyone?

Change to Desire HD

I just found out that "Desire HD" ROM supports internet sharing from PC to your Mobile through HTC Sync application.

But unfortunately the "Desire" ROM does not have this option.

Download HTC Sync and install any Desire HD build in your HD2. Connect it to your PC via USB cable, when the phone prompts for what type of connection you would like to make, select "Internet Pass-through" and your are done.

Just to mention, the "Android Market" cannot download applications using this connection. All others should be fine.

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chocolate Columbo:
Not so sure why it ends up being so difficult. I'm sure I was able to do this over USB and use the PC's internet with an old Elf I had. Unless I was mistaken and it was even further back and it was actually a k700i I was using the PC internet from. Definitely one of the two though.

I haven't found any easy way to do this. It would help when my Market needs to restore over 60mb of data over 3G and I wipe regularly in testing.

Want to connect Android mobile to laptop internet by USB cable

Hello,

Do you have any definitive reply about connecting your phone to internet through USB ?

My laptop is using a Wifi that needs USER and PASSWORD to login, and I cannot login on laptop and phone at the same time (only one user can be connected).

Thanks.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mvmsk:
i got your problem.This is so simple.You can use the laptop's wifi to emulate the ip packets and receive simultaneously.

i.e Internet: --> wifi in and wifi out

procedure: you are connected to internet through wifi.[and also no other user can connect simultaneously].So use mhotspot. you can now create a wifi hotspot with the laptop's wifi.

Therefore, your phone can connect to you laptop's wifi and access internet.

check dis link for pictorial explanation http://mhotspot.com/extend-your-wifi-range.html

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jax_al:
definitive solition

Since Android supports pc internet/ USB tether, I tried to configure it for reverse use.

Following is the steps to get internet on android device via usb.

On Android Device

STEP 1) Root your phone. Root using SuperoneClick

STEP 2) When you connect usb cable, choose pc internet. (For Eclair)

Or

Settings –> Wireless and network –> Tethering — USB tethering (For Froyo)

(If you are using Eclair, IP network will be 192.168.1.0/24 whereas with froyo it is 192.168.42.0/24. This may be different. You can find ip network by netcfg command on android OR by ip range of usb0 device)

STEP 3) save following commands as /sdcard/and.sh (you can save it anywhere with any filename)

ifconfig usb0 192.168.1.25 netmask 255.255.255.0

route add default gw 192.168.1.100 dev usb0

setprop net.dns1 4.2.2.2

netcfg

Following is why we used above commands.

Line 1

When you choose pc internet, android acts as dhcp server & provides ip 192.168.1.100 to computer. Whereas android itself picks 192.168.1.254.

In above script first of all we are changing default ip 192.168.1.254 to 192.168.1.25, reason being when ip is leased to a computer, 192.168.1.254 is registered as dns server. Which may make your internet inaccessible on computer. Changing it to 192.168.1.25 will make 192.168.1.254 dns server inaccessible & has no effect on internet.

Line 2

Since 192.168.1.100 is the machine we are going to get internet from, it should be set as default gateway for android device.

Line 3

This will configure 4.2.2.2 as default dns, you may use your isp dns servers.

Line 4

Will display change of ip address for usb0

STEP 4) use connectbot or any other app to access shell & change permission for script.

su

chmod 777 /sdcard/and.sh

STEP 5) run scrip using following command

su

. /sdcard/and.sh

On Computer

STEP 6) once you connect usb cable & choose pc internet on android, additional interface usb0 will be detected on Fedora / Ubuntu which will get ip 192.168.1.100 from android dhcp

STEP 7) Keep following commands in /etc/rc.local Or run whenever you connect android phone.

echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward

iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o eth0 -j MASQUERADE

Or

iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -s 192.168.1.0/24 -j MASQUERADE

Line 1 is for ip forwarding

Line 2 is to masquerade through eth0, this is internet source interface on your computer.

If you are using slitaz latest cooking version, it does not detect ip from dhcp by default.

here you can add ip for usb0 device using following command.

ifconfig usb0 192.168.1.100 netmask 255.255.255.0 up

This is all.

Now you should be able to access internet on your android phone using usb cable.

Eclair

Except for Chat & Installing application from Market I was able to sync my phone.

Froyo

Apart from Chat & Installing application from android market, Gmail is not being synced. Whereas applications like greader / k-9 mail works fine.

I have tested this only on Samsung Galaxy 3 (GT-I5801)
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boscharun:
Not possible on XP, but possible in Windows 7. You can use virtualrouter to share internet with your androiid.

The advantage with virtual router is that you just need to install it, run it and switch on wifi on your mobile. Unlike other similar softwares, no need to configure ip addresses and all. Just plug and play ;-)

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Defiant one:
Hi everyone.

Managed to share my lappy internet connection with my Defy+ (Gingerbread) last nite. My lappy connects to the net via one of those HSDPA USB stick thingy...

* I set up an adhoc network (WEP, used fixed IP address, saved it in my lappy)

* Set my main internet connection network (the HSDPA thing) to enable sharing (Just make sure you select the correct Wireless Network during enabling sharing, else it won't work).

* Set my Droid to use fixed IP (with gateway=adhoc network's IP, DNS1=adhoc network's IP, DN2=8.8.8.8)

Note: Using WPA2 on the gateway PC crashed my Droid's "Setting apps" when I try to connect to the adhoc network - No idea why, so I stuck to WEP

Everything connects! And without using any third party software.

For more elaborate description of how carry out the setting on the gateway PC - Win7/Vista or XP (in my case, the lappy with the main connection), you can refer to the following link:

http: // unlockforus.blogspot.com / 2008 / 10 / vistaxp-how-to-share-internet.html

And of course, I haven't hit my 10 posts mark yet, so the onlyway I could post the link was to space the "/". Remember to remove the space after copying "link" to your browser.

Learnt much from XDA Developers site, so I thought I'd share a bit of what worked for me here too...

Cheers! =)

PS: Oops... My description was for Wireless connection... not USB. Have not tested it out for USB yet. Only done it last nite

[XPERIA X1 General] comeradealexi:
wonder what build it is to be
[G1 General] Mysticales:
Hey all, just posting my experience upgrading from JF 1.51 US to the new OfficialCRC1 US (Fully loaded, see sig for link). Since JF has left us, its time to move on, like many of others here who worry about upgrading, wiping etc, wanted to let you know that the officialcrc1 is perfect to goto. (Cyans build is also great for those pioneers who keep up with his updates and always want the hottest items etc) Those of you who just want a clean upgrade with good performance I will recommend this one.

I upgraded perfectly! I was using Lucids script for apps2sd and the conversion to the new rom went flawless, no wipe, no force close issues nothing. My notes is as followed:

- Fixed my terminal issue where it was always in # even tho it wasnt in su mode. (Now the $ is back yeaaa)

- Emulators run ALOT smoother! (Yeaaa GBA doesnt skip as much)

- Speed has increased overall.

- Couple nice extras built in, Office and Wireless tether.

- Marketplace cache and everything else there has stayed perfectly. (Only thing that may change is various system settings)

- Compcache working perfectly and smooth, great expert setup mode to alter between that and linux-swap.

Now then notes to take care of before upgrading and notes for after:

- Turn off auto start on Swapper and/or SetCPU if you use them, as the rom handles that now.

- ODEX files, if you made odex files, this rom will remove them and on each boot, it will remove them. Lucids script is not able (As of the moment) able to recreate them. Upgrade to both the script and the ROM for handling/creating odex files are in the works for a update. So this fixed my tmobile visual voicemail.

Anyways, I am very happy with this rom build and wanted to make a post for anyone else who hesitates or worries like alot of us do when switching over rom builds. I will be posting benchmark results soon on my other thread.

So goodluck on your upgrades and thanks to JF for his work in the past. =)
[G1 General] The Reverend Gridlock:
Wait I thought if you went back to official than you would lose root, so how do you still have apps2sd, wi-fi tether, and compchace or linux swap since they are all root level access, are you sure that is an official rom and if so it might have something to do with the non wiping. Most likely you will lose root for sure with any ota updates. I am confuddle
[G1 General] Mysticales:
Click OfficialCRC1 in my sig. =) Its what the dev calls it, Its a upgraded version of JF in a sense, Where JF kept it true to a Tmobile build, so is eno. =)
[G1 General] The Reverend Gridlock:
Yeah, that's not official since it is moddified, to give users the same feel as the stock roms but with su permissions and a couple other tweaks, so you might want to change it so people don't get confuddle, maybe stocklike crc1 build because this won't update with new ota s
[G1 General] Mysticales:
Why change it? The dev himself on this thread has called it this. Anyone who knows the rom builds knows the name already. ;) But Ill add Enos in it.
[G1 General] enomther:
Great post, thanks for sharing

Hi Mysticales,

I read this post and am glad you're sharing your upgrade experiences with others. I'm also glad all went well for you when you when upgrading from a JF build to my newer CRC1-based-US ROM. There are also EU and ADP equivalents available.

I trust most users would have the same ease in upgrading.

So again, thanks for sharing your experiences, much appreciated!

To be clear, the ROM she speaks of is fully rooted and more info can be found here ...
