it would be cool if one of the devs could write a small app to switch this on n off :D great find tho shoemeistah
[Desire General] jsannn:
Thank you for the guide, It worked fine. There are several things not working though:

- can't download apps from market, they stuck on "downloading"

- my google account don't sync

- other apps don't update themselves. For example my twitter app won't show any new tweets until I open it and manually press "refresh"
[Desire General] irkan:
I searched for this long time ago, even created a thread about it awhile back, didnt have luck like you did though :)

I gave up on it eventually, it would be nice to make an app out of it.

mind asking how did you confirm the net to be working on browser? by pinging google.com?

since i saw the last line you put "Internet in browser application does not work."
[Desire General] shoemeistah:
You can do that in the terminal ;)

[U][B] Internet connection on your Android phone via your PC [/B][/U]

I think I found the best solution. Check it out connectify.me

I wanted to use my PC wired internet & I was astonished that this wasn't available in my HTC Desire & 1st Android device!. I looked over the net, I found many options but most asked for a rooted device! I didn't want to root my brand new Desire.

Connectify is an easy to use software router for Windows 7 computers. After downloading and installing the lightweight application, Connectify utilizes your computers' built in Wi-Fi card to wirelessly share any available Internet connection: a cable modem, a cellular card, or even another Wi-Fi network. Other Wi-Fi enabled devices including laptops, smart phones, music players, and gaming systems can see and join your Connectify hotspot just like any other Wi-Fi access point and are kept safe and secure by password-protected WPA2 Encryption.

I tried it & it's working perfectly for me .. It's a free app.

Phone: HTC Desire (SIM Free)

[Desire General] GhostOfTheNet:
By me it didn't work. Using OpenDesire with Froyo 2.2

So I made it work, by edititng the .inf file.

Here the file for USB\VID_0BB4&PID_0C02.

For all which still have a problem(USB TETHERING ON DEVICE MUST BE ACTIVE, ALSO THE IDs DIFFERS BETWEEN CONNECTED WITH ADB OR NOT), go into the device manager -> open the device -> goto tab details -> choose device id

look at it, you see somewhere vid_XXXX and further pid_XXXX

open my file -> goto line 31 -> change vid_YYYY and pid_YYYY with what you see in your device dialog. the same you do on line 35. be careful with 0 or o.

Regards

Ralph
[Desire General] chrismast:
I am also using connectify, easy to install, set it up, connect with Desire, anything works fine.
[Desire General] shoemeistah:
Thanks GhostOfTheNet.

I appreciate the recommendations for other solutions.

But as you can see this thread is for a internet solution at places where is no Wifi available.

So please keep it on topic, thanks!

BASH Shell script Reverse-USB-Tethering * needs root *

A BASH script has been written by me today.

It is working for me, altough it uses a modified pppd version; it can be downloaded from here. Original (base) post & thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=522498

To push it to the phone (make sure you are in that folder what contains pppd_mod (unpack it before try :P)):

ADB=./adb # redefine as the real path
$ADB shell "mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 `mount | grep '/system' -m 1 | awk '{ print $1}'` /system"
$ADB push pppd-mod /system/bin/pppd-mod

#!/bin/bash

echo "fatal: root required"
exit 1

if [ "$1a" == "a" ]; then

[Desire General] yummyPa:
I think you must have USB debugging on and adb can't recognize the device without usb debugging on

But i suggest you try this from the phone if the device doesn't show with adb.

you have to have all programs that constricts data flow disabled like juice defender for example.

I'll show a way for you to know for sure if you have a connection to the internet. it's nothing different.

You write:

$ su
# netcfg

it will appear

lo UP 127.0.0.1 255.0.0.0 0x00000049
dummy0 DOWN 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 0x00000082
.
.
.
usb0 up 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 0x....

if you have ip 0.0.0.0 it means that the tethering didn't work

so you go to settings and turn off and on USB tethering

you open the terminal again if you closed it :D

$ su
# netcfg

it will appear again

if you have at usb0 an ip with 196..... then the tethering works but you don't have internet connection

now you write

# netcfg usb0 dhcp

if you have closed every app you have for altering data flow

it should appear imediatly

#

you write again

# netcfg

if usb0 has a different ip like 82.... you have internet connection

It's not a major thing because i for instance can only use internet browser, can look in android market but cannot download anything, and any app that need sign in to doesn't work cuz it doesn't recognize the network. I haven't verified everything that works or not. but if you only need some internet for browsing it's a good method.

Edit: aplications that work:

* dolphin browser

* xda apk

hi all

i am making a new thread but i searched forum couldnt find anything or maybe i missed it.

so i have debranded Desire 2.10.405.2, on PC(win7 32-bit) i have both HTC sync 3 and the old version HTC sync. i am closing the other when i am using one.

ok here is the problem; when i try to sync contacts on HTC sync old version, i get message like synchronization failed. i can save contacts to SD card but cant sync on PC. so i downloaded and installed HTC sync 3. theres no problem with finding device. but calendar and contacts tab is invisible. on contacts and calendar i cant turn sync button on.

message "sync failed" began to appear after i installed the last froyo OTA update. i had gold card in while doing it and i have no other problems with phone.

so have anyone else had this problem ? and whats the solution ?

Hi,

Thanks

Eduardo
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Smaniac:
Download on your PC a program called CCProxy. It's a proxy server that allows cascading, so that it can connect to an authenticated proxy. Then in your Galaxy S you can set the proxy to the IP and port of the computer you installed CCProxy on.

I tested on a Galaxy S and it worked. The only problem is that you need access to a computer on the network.

CCProxy is a paid app, but the demo version works fine.

what you see in front of you , is not always "just a launcher", so beware, it can be a lot harder to make it work on milestone, as droid has no strange baseband problems(12+ different variantions + drivers changes), no bt,gps,gki system as backend to handle communication.

and finally, it might have less memory and can look nice, but reloads alot. which is not a problem on droid with swap and compcache options enabled.

[General Questions and Answers] FLOKER:
Hey,

I'd like to buy a new device soon but I'd like to keep the price as low as possible.

So I actually wanted to buy the Desire HD (600€).

But then I noticed that some devs got the Desire HD ROM working on the HD2.

So the HD2 is available for around 350€ here.

What would you say?

Can the HD2 provide the same quality and is the Desire HD ROM running nearly as good as on the native Desire HD?

Thanks in advance,

Florian
[General Questions and Answers] crash_194:
I have a HD2 and a HTC Desire and my advice would be, if Android is your weapon of choice for an operating system, go with an android device.

I've tried a number of Android Roms on my HD2 and although they are great, they are still in development and battery life is an issue with the Rom having to be run off the SD card.

Have you considered a HTC Desire?

[General Questions and Answers] crash_194:
A HD2 doesn't run the Desire ROM as good as the Desire and does not yet match it closely for battery life. However I'll add that i'm running a stock WM ROM on my HD2.

If you want Android working out of the box then get an android device. Just be aware the HD2 may require tweaking to death to get it to work well and not everbody is prepared for that.

My reason for suggesting the Desire is the price as i think it is coming down in price alot now and is a very good buy.

All my opinion of course

I was also in this dilemma for a while, and I wanted so much to try android, and the same time keep it on the safe side with a windows mobile, so i got 2 days ago the HTC HD2, put Dutty ROM, and i am trying a few android roms, and for now, i like it very much.

Android on HD2 is not perfect yet, but it is going in this direction, but it is very usable, need just to find the correct edition to use...
