I am having real trouble trying to get Barnacle Wifi Tether to work

I am running windows 7 and am able to detect Barnacle in my wireless networks. I get a full 5 bar excellent signal. When I try and connect, the phone seems to connect, as Barnacle confirms connection in the log. There is though as problem, as in the wirless network tab on the taskbar there is an exclamation mark and when I hover over it with the mouse it reads: Barnacle no internet access

Following something I read on a previous forum I set my Barnacle settings as following

BSSID - nothing entered

Wireless ENcryption - disabled

Access contrtol: restirct NAT to selected MAC address - disabled

Custom Wifi Ad-hoc - none

Skip wpa_supplicant - enabled

WAN - tiwlan0

LAN - tiwlanO

DHCP:

Gateway: 192.168.5.1

Netmask: 255.255.255.0

First Host: current 100

Number of Hosts: 100

Lease Time: 1200

DNS 1 - nothing entered

DNS 2 - nothing entered

NAT:

First Port current: 32000

Number of Ports current: 300

Queue Length current: 100

Timeout: 30

Timeout TCP current: 90

I would be greateful if anyone could tell me how I can get this working? ARe my settins correct? Is there anything I could change. I have tried chaning the channel but that has no effect. Any ideas what I can do to get this working?

I have looked at other forum posts but am still not having any luck.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] marada2:
I think I have sorted it has I have now left the WAN and LAN field empty. I then connect and then I have to press associate once connected otherwise it does not work. My only problem is that it seems very slow and I get frequent drops in connection. I think the download speed is around 3kb/s and the upload around 1 kb/s. I am not in the best converage area, however this is much slower than when I use the phone to browse the internet without a pc. I seem to be getting only a 2 bar signal. When I broswe the internet directly from the phone I can get at 3 - 4 bar signal. What is going on? I can at least play youtube videos when using the phone on it's own, however due to the slow speed this is not possible with tethering.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Raaert:
Something must be wrong, my 3G signal is exactly the same wether im tethering or not..

Also my PC is putting out about 1.4mbit DL & 0.3mbit on wifi tether, same as the phone alone..
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] monkey-tennis:
Hi,

I've had a problem with the Locations app since receiving the Desire HD. Basically no map details appear, just a yellow background with my location pin pointed, the apps controls in the top left and right corners. If I zoom out all the major towns/cities are displayed (UK) but zooming in, moving around etc produces nothing .. no map details at all, just the same yellow background.

I've tried re-installing the app, deleting and downloading the UK map, clearing the data/cache without luck. Google Maps works fine but it would be nice to have the offline Locations working too. Anyone have any ideas/suggestions?

Cheers
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oawalker:
You need to download the maps on your sd card from the application. when you open the map press menu then upgrade from there you should be able to choose your country then download the map.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] monkey-tennis:
Thanks for the reply but I already had tried that with no luck. I had no problems downloading the map and it's there on the SD card OK but Locations still fails to 'load' any details/map data.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andybrumz:
I've got the same problem too!!!! only get a yellow map! no detail or anything!

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] csimduke:
Hi,

The map is saved under \SD card\.data\navigator\data\maps

and name as xxx.cmap

If there is no map saved in SD card, it will use online map mode(like Google map)

Go Locations>Menu>Upgrade>Map to download map again
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andybrumz:
Thanks for the info but i've checked that the map is on my SD card and it is. I've also emailed HTC and they said do a hard reset. Which I had already done and its made no difference. Still just a yellow map and if I try to set directions it cant find any address I type!!!!!!!
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] olivierlee:
Have you tried to re-instal the Locations app? From Settings > Locations > Reinstal
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andybrumz:
yeah..I've tried everything but getting nowhere fast....would really like to use this app!!!!!
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] csimduke:
Hi, please try to delete all files from \.data\navigator\Data\Temporary

and launch it again

and disable all network connections to see its go onboard or online map
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andybrumz:
Hi csimduke.

Ok I deleted the files you said but still no joy..... maybe I'm thinking this app should be doing something it can't !!!!!

Can someone post a screen shot of the app running so I know what I'm aiming for.

Thanks for your help on this.

OK.....SCRATCH THAT.....CSIMDUKE IT WORKED......forgot to reboot the phone. Now its working. Thanks for your help. Now I'm one happy DHD owner......

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dandare2873:
Can someone please help me????

Whilst trying to solve what was the original problem in this thread i have managed to delete my UK maps file (yes, i know).

I have tried to re-install the locations software but it did not solve my problem.

When i try to activate the app it either:-

1) Gives me a message saying "storage card space required - to use this application, you must have at least 15mb storage card space. Please reserve 15mb space and try again later".

or

2) Loads up with a white screen and the message "No Locations".

I have no idea what the first one means or how to do this!!!

When the second thing happens i cannot download any more maps as i have a white screen, the licences does not sync either.

Please help somebody!!!

Right, After emailing HTC, i performed a hard reset - no joy. I then formatted the SD card with better results. I have now installed the Locations software but at the moment i am struggling to download the maps - i have the option to but the download seems to take ages and then mysteriously stops most of the way through. If anyone can help it would be appreciated.

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] banterbobs:
My problem

I have a similar but more extreme problem. Some background: I purchased a DHD in south africa and travelled back to the uk to visit for a week. Locations app was working in SA and in zurich (my connection point). Upon arrival in the uk I connected to my parents wifi and updated some apps, one of which was google maps. From then on HTC locations has not worked, ie neither stored maps (south africa or uk) or maps accessed via data connection will not display, just a black screen with road and compass icons. It runs really slow and often present with a force close message or the not enough space 15mb message, after which all license info disappears ie going to upgrade results in blank menus for a while. I have tried reinstalling maps and locations app with same result. HTC suggest a hard reset ("turning it on and off again"). It is running froyo and awaiting gingerbread update, probably due to it being a SA imei. I am reluctant to lose a lot of data for unsure results and would like to hear of possible reasons for this fault before I do so. Does anyone have ideas what is going on and how to cure this problem?

I can live without locations but i do like footprinting places I have been so it is not the end of the world but it would be nice.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Taomyn:
My SGS is upgraded to Froyo but the Samsung keyboard only offers me UK keyboard layout. I'd like to be able to add French and German plus their spelling languages. Is that possible?

I can switch between various languages in the Swype keyboard but not the Samsung one.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k.bergmann2:
hey everyone.

didn't see any similar topic. that's why i start one.

i got my sgs for 3 weeks now and noticed something strange: my sgs looses bettery power differently. by which i mean that on the one day it has power for almost eternity, the other day for just for half a day.

i'm using battery indicator and i checked the battery usage and noticed following:

when my battery dies quickly, "android-system" needs like 30 % of the battery power.

when it lasts longer, "android-system" needs only like 7-8 %.

today, my display was 53min on (32% of battery usage), "android-system" (30%) tells me that the cpu-unit worked 2h 10min. my total power is at 41 % while it is off the power socket since 8h 6min.

i don't know why "android-system" is working so hard and irregularly. what does the cpu have to calculate??

does anyone have any clues?

thanks a lot and kind regards :)

Sounds like you have a rogue widget or app. Install startup manager and start disabling crap that you don't need like maybe the Samsung apps or Sns (stupid Samsung social network)
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] louie604:
@ k.bergmann2: which service provider are you with? It could also be due to the phone randomly dropping signals and trying to reconnect. I've restricted mine to just the 850 band in service mode and have noticed better battery life (i have kik messenger, social hub email for hotmail, beautiful widgets weather constantly running in the background). Also, remember to disable your wifi and gps if you're not using it. That will help with your battery life too.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jonnie86:
How do you restrict bands? Thanks!
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] louie604:
This was what I followed...

1. on the key pad, type *#*#197328640#*#*

2. Select [1] Debug Screen

3. Select [8] Phone control

4. Select [7] Network control

5. Select [2] Band selection

6. Select [2] WCDMA band []

7. Select [6] WCDMA 850

After going into the Band Selection, you can pick other bands if you like.

Hope it helps

[Wildfire General] HCDR.Jacob:
To make developing for it easier :)
[Wildfire General] kevin2516:
Because its so sexy + I was cheap and wanted to test out android without buying an expensive phone and killing it, only to realise that using and modding android is easy and fun.

And the battery life is awesome
[Wildfire General] DestX:
Because I couldn't afford a desire!
[Wildfire General] bpye:
Because I've always loved the look of android and htc phones in particular but could never afford one, or, it was the tattoo with a resistive(ew) screen, until the wildfire.

First Android phone, read alot about the O/S beforehand.

Had a Nokia E51 before this. (brilliant phone, probably one of the top 5 EVER!)

Cheap phone. Except for the display and processor, no differences from the Desire, which, compared hand-in-hand, seemed too big.
[Wildfire General] wuud:
Because I wanted to have a small Androidphone. Desire was way to big for me and I always liked small phones. And yes money. I wanted a small cheap and still good working phone and the best is the wildfire :D

[Wildfire General] mbrad_26:
I bought a HTC Wildfire 2weeks ago for my wife for 190 pounds onebay. Reason : she wanted a phone with gps capabilities. What i have noticed so far is the battery that resist wirhout charging more then 2days. Thats the only plus i must say. Minus : rezolution of display, prety bugy ( i was expected for more, since it runs on 2.1). Without wanted to upset anybody i think that i did bad deal, considering that i paid 210 pounds for my x10(witch is stil on1.6 but feels mutch more smoothly...probebly due to more powerfull hardweare ). In conclusion i think it offers to litle to justify the price (there are on the market more capables devices for the low entry segment). Anyway once you boughtit you tend to forghet the shortcomings and will end up loving it for what it has.

Cheers

[Wildfire General] kevin2516:
maybe you could lower the brightness more, disable auto syncing, disable 3g when not using it. that could help.
[Wildfire General] DestX:
Try downloading a task manager and going to apps then press kill all.

-disable wireless

-turn off bluetooth

-turn off auto sync

-turn off gps satellites

-turn off 'use my location'

Also do as kevin said.

[Wildfire General] mbrad_26:
Sim free? If so pls give me the name of shop? I found this very hard to believe, considering that is SIMfree phone brand new ..boxed. The best price on the market (except ebay) for a vendor it is around 210 - 220 pounds.

140 pounds maybe for a refurbished phone.

Thx
