[XPERIA X10 General] apr1000:
hey

i got this idea to compare x10 side by side with similar phones and post the video on youtube, so people would stop comparing x10 with other phones and hopefully see what the x10 can do with froyo or 2.1.

so if you got a friend with a nexus 1, droid x, iphone, whatever. try and make a comparison video and upload it to youtube.

atm i dont got any friends with any good smartphones, but once i get to school ill try and upload a video.

heck even writing about it would work

thx

Heya,

Unfortunately android, to be precisely wpa_supplicant does not show ad-hoc networks, the following modified wpa_supplicant shows them, haven't seen it before so I posted it :).

all credits go to szym (http://szym.net/android/adhoc-wpa-supp.html)

patch: http://szym.net/android/wpa_supplicant-ibss.patch

The only thing I did was to apply the patch compile it for froyo and supply a signed update zip with the modified wpa_supplicant, work was done by szym.

Flash the attached wpa_adhoc-signed.zip in recovery and your done :).

a3e00f284ddff04804ba8d59364712b1 wpa_adhoc-signed.zip (v0.5.11)

Works with:

- Froyo/Eclair roms on HTC Hero (confirmed)

- roms using wpa_supplicant v0.5.x

Attention:

- It _seems_ like some rom using wpa_supplicant v0.6.x do not work! take care (e.g HTC Desire). Please report back.

Downloaded and will have a try. It will be great if it works. Thanks.

The hero can detect the ad-hoc mode with a (*)before the name. It can be connected but can't access the internet. My laptop can access internet through this ad-hoc wifi. Didn't know why?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] pascanu:
It works! Beautiful. I used my old G1 to make an ad-hoc wireless network and my Desire saw it right away and connected without any problem. See my signature for the ROM I'm using (if it really matters).
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] yamchung:
Would anyone provide "ad-hoc support in wep" in a signed update zip? Thanks.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] blackplatypus:
it is already look at the first post.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] funkyrohit:
The patch didn't work for me at first. I got "Error" while trying to turn my wi-fi on. :(

But when I restored the original /system/etc/wifi/tiwlan.ini and /data/misc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf back in the phone, it started detecting ad-hoc networks.

So the patch worked after all. :D

Thanks. :)

[EDIT]

Did not work after I rebooted my phone.

Hi

i hope this help:

if you all you want is sharing your laptop internet with your

phone wirelessly and thats the reason you want to connect to ad-hoc

on your phone , you can just install a software call "Connectify"

it lets you setup a Virtual WIFI which act just like a wifi router so your phone

will find the network without any tweak.

Note: it only works on Windows 7 32/64 bit

the best place to download it is cnet download

I hope this helps:)

Ok, I am a complete newbie to this and wanted to thank you guys for all your hard work. Your install instructions were simple and concise enough that even I now have MARKET and You Tube!

One problem, now my memory (with all the apps copied to system/apps) is reduced to 4 MB of the 512MB available. I have deleted what I can, any advice/info as to what I can safely delete to clear up some space?

Also I cannot get Calendar to install, any thoughts?

galaxy s wpa_supplicant

For all GALAXY S users.

Easiest way to do that.

I use Darkys ROM btw.(I think its the fastest one, gets updated very often, and if you already have this ROM, next update wont erase installed apps, but its all up to you)

Download Darkys ROM - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=814091

Download wpa_supplicant - http://rapidshare.com/files/440030406/wpa_supplicant

Flash Darkys ROM (XXJPY).(there is a full guide on that page if youre not sure what to do)

Put the wpa_supplicant on your phone(anywhere you want)

Start the phone and run Root Explorer.(Your wifi should be turned off from now on)

Find the wpa_supplicant you uploaded on the phone, copy it,and go to system/bin/ folder.

Paste and overwrite.Make sure you see r/w on the top of the /bin folder, otherwise it wont overwrite.

Its very simple and I guarantee it works on every galaxy s with Darkys ROM, because ive done it like 20 times now and havent had any problem with wifi.it works like charm.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] chuckmolson:
Ive got Darky's 7.6 rom, still can't get ip adress..

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] rabatinova:
Yes!

I used this method since v6 and I had no problem at all.

I dont know why its not working for you.

All I do is:

Flash new version - wifi is not working at this point(it is working but cant find ad-hoc networks).

Run Root Explorer and copy wpa_supplicant from my external card to system/bin and overwrite

Last time I did it:

From v7.8 to v8.0, I was at school,

downloaded via wifi .zip file to my sdcard,

rebooted to recovery

installed .zip file from sdcard

restarted the phone

copied wpa file

turned on wifi

nothing more nothing less

Now when I turn the wifi on, Im able to find and connect to my wifi network created on my laptop within 10 seconds.

well keep trying, I have no idea what could go wrong that youre not able to connect...

You need to configure manualy the IP address on your phone.

HTC Ad Hoc to epad connection

Hi

Been doing some research and been led to here.

Im trying to link my HTC Mini HD to a 7" epad tablet.

My HTC has windows not Android on it.

I understand the reason the tablet will not see my phones Wi-Fi network because it is Ad Hoc.

It there a way I can "switch" from Ad Hoc to the format I need and back or at least set up a new "connection"

Obviously I dont want to delete my Ad Hoc connection or do I need that to continue linking to my Mac laptops?

Many thanks

yes, I have

Seems there is a short term between connected state and disconnect action because if I try to ping my phone in my laptop ,there are some replys and then some timeouts then replys again ,repeat the cycle.

I have tried the AP for connection ,it works fine.

What should I test for ?

Check your battery consumption with SGS Tolls (if you are using Samsung Galaxy). It seems that the WLAN Idle Method doesn't works at your phone, in this case WLAN On und Using is activitaded the whole time and drains the battery. Just a guess.

This is what i want to do : Sharing the 3g of my G1 to my computer (XP) and later, on my futur android tablet.

I have flashed on my G1 the wpa_adhoc-signed.zip gived in the first post. No Pbm.

But, what to do now ?

i don't see any new wifi network.

Any1 can help ?

thx very much
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] webwude:
You want to share your mobile connection with your laptop, right? If you use froyo (android 2.2) you should be able to activate "mobile access point" in your settings. As far as i know, this wpa_adhoc fix enables the connection from mobile to laptop, so you can use the laptops internet connection ;)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] nimp0:
Ok,

So I have flashed this file for nothing.

I hope it haven't broke anything :/

I use a custom Froyo and I don't see this parameters.

I have a mobile access point menu, but it is used to set my Network APN etc ...

Not to share my connexion.

Strange ...

I have install a tether app that can do what I want. (Sharing the 3g connexion of my phone through Wifi to an Android tablet that don't have 3G)

I have an Huawei U8150 with Froyo 2.2

I tried with the wpa6_adhoc-signed.zip

(in fact I did not really apply the patch, I extracted the wpa_supplicant file from the zip and copied it to /system/bin )

after reboot, i couldn't connect or see any wireless network.

So i rolled back, copied my former wpa_supplicant.bak to wpa_supplicant

At first I faced permissions issues (Read-only file system)

so i had to remount first:

then rollback

Good enough, I got the wifi back but still cannot see ad-hoc networks :(...

Now I'd like to try to install this zip, but i really don't know how to do it. I don't know how to change the permissions to work into the directories, i don't know how to make a backup of everything before starting to play, and finally i don't know how to install this zip file.

Hi i have an LG Optimus One Smartphone and i have succesfully enabled Wifi ad-hoc on my phone following the guides of this thread. But I have one question: if i want to create an ad-hoc network from my smartphone what i have to do??

nothing happens and the wifi interface remains in Managed mode and i don't understand why this happens. Thank you in advance for the help.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] felixonmars:
I found a strange issue with the patch... Every time when I connected to an ad-hoc network, my phone would create an open network ssid with the same name as the one I connected to, so that other devices could only try to connect to the non-password one and failed timed out when "obtaining address".

The bug also affects it if I disconnected to the network and when tried to reconnect to it, I can only see the non-password one and cannot connect either. I have to create two ssid on my computer with different names and once disconnected, I have to switch to the other one so that my phone can connect to it again.

Is it a common issue or specific only for me?
