Tethering Coby Kyros mid7015

I am a 55year old "Aussie" dad trying to modify the coby for my daughter. Could someone please post step by step instructions to allow the coby to tether with an "ad hoc" device. (for a "dummy hacker"!)

Thanks

When I go to run either of the scripts, which are in the proper place, it just comes up and says "Permission denied". I am most definitely rooted. Not sure if anyone would have any idea what would cause this.

I downloaded the adhoc program and it didnt boot at all on my phone. I have a Motorola Backflip w/Android 2.1

Any suggestions why that wouldnt work? My phone is not rooted...might that be why?

Looking for work around

Ok, I must have some major mental block because I can usually figure this stuff out pretty easy but for some reason I can not get adb to work right for me and I have tried moving the config files using the terminal emulator to no avail.

My question is, can I just unzip the an update.zip and replace the files where they need to go and use clockwork to run the new update.zip?

BTW I have also tried to use AndExplorer to copy and paste the files without success and yes, my tablet is rooted.

Edit#1-Thanks to stardawg I did get the files copied via rootexplorer. After modifying the config files to my Wi-Fi Router ssid and password I still did not see the network. I am attempting this using a winmobil touch pro2. Thanks again for all your help!

do any changes need to be made to the file to make it work on my 7015?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Muttz:
OK, I'm having the same issue. I also had to modify the file for a ten digit WEP key. But, AndroidTether shows as a WPA/WPA2 network in the list of networks. I tried to change the security type to WEP and it changes for a second, then says unable to save network. I tried to "forget this network" and I can't delete it.

I'm using MyWi on a jailbroken iPhone. I also have a Witstech A81E and I can tether that tablet without a problem. But, I am using a completely different method with that tablet.

I know that I can't connect because AndroidTether is showing as WPA. Does anyone know why I can't change the network security type?

Thanks.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] fbelleri:
Because in the wpa_supplicant.conf you may have put the line:

proto=WPA

or

key_mgmt=WPA-PSK

With WEP encription, the 'standard' is:

# Shared WEP key (no WPA, no IEEE 802.1X)

ctrl_interface=...... (do not touch this line!)

update_config=1

ap_scan=2

network={

ssid="YourSSID"

scan_ssid=1

mode=1

#WEP or NO Encription

key_mgmt=NONE

# ASCII key are with ""

wep_key0="abcde"

# HEX keys are without ""

wep_key1=0102030405

wep_key2="1234567890123"

priority=5

}

To make some test, you can disable wep on the thetering-device and use a wpa_supplicant.conf like this:

ctrl_interface=...... (do not touch this line!)

update_config=1

ap_scan=2

network={

ssid="YourSSID"

scan_ssid=1

key_mgmt=NONE

mode=1

priority=1

}

All I wrote comes from the examples in TIWLAN.INI file (On your filesystem if your Tablet has a TexasInstrumentWirelessLAN chip)

Hoping helpful, best Regards.

Is there a way we can avoid the WPA/WEP thing and NOT use a password?

What needs to be changed in the wpasupplicant file for this to work?

It didn't work for me, now it won't let me use the wifi =(
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] lovedeatm:
i actually used terminal and did it within the pad its self it was easier (i can't get the adb shell to work on my comp for some reason. everything i type i auto get the help menu)

in other news...i'm about to confirm whether this did the trick though i think it did. but i fear i may have to cp the files from my sdcard everytime i turn off or my colby shutdown. I think this is because i had to do it everytime i flashed into clockworld. should i customze the adhoc shell to add these files to "/data/.." everytime i want to use adhoc? also is there anyway i can get both regular wifi and the adhoc to mix?

Hi All

I have HTC HD with Energy BLACKSTONE 28244 Sense2.5 Cookie.2.0 Nov.13 ROM

I live in IRAN , Facebook & Twitter were filtered , I need help to change the proxy of Opera or IE , if possible change Facebook & Twitter App. proxy settings be able to connect to free Internet.

i use WiFi or MTN GPRS to connect

Please help me
[Touch HD General] christopherwoods:
Unfortunately it might not be possible.

You can go into Connections, then click on the Connections icon - click "set up my proxy server" and you will see the "Proxy server" and "Advanced" button if there is already one there.

You will need to find an open SOCKS4 or SOCKS5 proxy server based outside of Iran which will be accessible over your 3G network - your mobile provider might block the standard SOCKS proxy ports (3128 and 1080, if I remember correctly) so unfortunately it might not work even if you find one.

Also, all of your 3G traffic is probably being proxied by your mobile operator anyway including DNS requests, which I'm fairly sure is how you're being blocked. You may have to do a lot of work (rent proxy server service) in order to get round the block.

Best of luck...
[Vibrant General] Bandage:
So I'm runnin crazy at work, and one of my employees tells me my wife is on the phone for me. I pick up, and she's all frantic and babblin...can't understand her. I get worried, and tell her to slow down and breathe.

"I dropped it in the toilet babe...I'm so sorry!"

"Eh...dropped what in the toilet?" I ask.

"My phone! I was brushing my hair and listening to my voicemails...and it slipped out of my hand...omg omg what do I do!"

So...I pause, and it's my turn to take a deep breath. I'm cursin her out in my mind, for sure...I wanna say: "This is why I get all the cool toys, and you get the hand-me-downs babe!! WTF?!" Instead I get into action-mode.

"Ok...first off open that puppy up, and take out the battery and sim / sd cards. Give it a good shake, get all that water outta there."

"I'm so sorry honey..." Still panicking

"It's all good" I say through clenched teeth

"ok what next?"

I walk her through blotting it dry on the surface...spreading it all out on a towel, then tell her to get her hair dryer out. She goes to town with a no heat setting for about 30 mins...hittin each and every nook and cranny.

"Ok...now go pour some rice on a plate in an even layer, and lay the phone on top of it." I instruct.

"Huh? What-the-hell-you-talkin-about hon?" Her response

"Just trust me on this"

"Ok...I'm really sorry." All timidlike

I get home a few hours later, and touch it all off with a compressed air canister to be sure. Put it together again and press the power button....

And there's that lovely sideways Android Logo. A few reboots later to make sure, all is well.

The wife hugs me in relief and asks...

"Are you still gonna get me the NookColor for Christmas?"

I went outside for a smoke.
[Vibrant General] iynfynity:
lol :D I find it sweet and i don't know why. :p
[Vibrant General] kboater:
congrats on getting it back :)

only thing i would have done differently is leave it in the rice for 24-48 hrs. dropped the old mytouch in the toilet and got it back that way.

usually when people cant get it working after water exposure its because they immediately try to turn it back on or with in a couple hrs and end of frying it. seems like you already know this, just throwing it out there for others.

anyway, congrats on keeping it going :)

[Vibrant General] rizoh66:
My thoughts exactly...
[Vibrant General] SamsungVibrant:
Not to be a downer, but if it was dropped in toilet water, it will probably start to corrode and die. I would have opened it up, and carefully done a 99% alcohol or methanol rinse. Rinse all the nasty water away, the 99% isopropyl alcohol or methanol will evaporate in seconds without damaging anything, and no corrosion.

You might have things like printed material on chips inside the phone rub off with the methanol, but ahh no biggie.

[G Tablet General] anosis:
Started reading the forums a few days ago, already planning on getting a gtab for x-mas. So got one at Sears today and went home confident I would know what I am doing. Well I was wrong !!

First mistake: My assumption that this will be as easy as my SGS with clockworkmod. For one, there are apparently CWM versions floating around that are known to cause issues - hence that is the one I ended up with. It installed the CMW fine and went into recovery just like I am used to. Tried to apply the ZPAD 2.2 rom and as soon as I rebooted got the 'Magic Value Mismatch' error at the top of the screen.

Mistake two: trying to fix it by finding the correct CWM called .8 which seemed to make things worse. I got a screen now right after the power and Vol + key that shows alternating black and white strips.

I had this thing only for 3 hours and I already managed to get way past my expertise on fixing this.

What can I do to get the tab to load a recovery image so I can boot?

On the internal SD card there is the folder called 'recovery' with the command file that points to the update.zip on the external sd card. I imagine that is correct. However it did not matter what ZIP file I place on the SD card. For example I renamed all the exising rom's one by one to update.zip to see if one of them would take and no luck.

I am sure someone with more experience can point me to how to get back to normal. I would appreciate some help.
[G Tablet General] brad37:
Try This

I had a similar issue with mine about 30 min after I got it. Use your external SD and but the vanilla tnt update.zip and the recovery folder on it. Edit the command file in the recovery folder to say sdcard2 instead of sdcard. This worked for me , Good luck
[G Tablet General] anosis:
Thaks for the info.

I created the recovery folder with the command file this time on the external SD card (preped this on the PC) and made sure the vanilla update.zip was on the root of the SD card.

I got a new error about a kernal having a critical error, but I was so frustrated that I did not write it all down.

Then I tried another rom (gtab lite 2.2) and I get the Magic Value Mismatch error again.

It seems like it does not even attempt going into recovery now, because it does not matter if I press the VOL+ and PWR key together. It has the same effect as if I press PWR alone.

I really don't want to give up just yet. If anyone else has any suggestions I am willing to try, plus this experience might help others in a similar situation down the road to recover instead of having to return the device.

I saw a post about some PC based update, but I also seen comments that that could make things even worse. Any ideas?
[G Tablet General] anosis:
In the mean time I followed the NVFlash instructions and there is some success and also some loss.

The success is that I no longer get the "magic value mismatch" error. The loss is that my tablet still does not boot and now I have a Nvidia boot screen which will most likely raise a flag with Sears when I return it for an exchange.

I don't want to give up yet, but I really could use some pointers on what else to try.

Here are the instructions I followed for the NVF...

[G Tablet General] roebeet:
My nvflash won't help you, at this point. You want bekit's nvflash recovery -- http://forum.tegratab.com/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=8 I know you used mine because you have the Nvidia logo. :)

The difference between bekit's recovery and mine is that bekit's flashes EVERYTHING, at a low level. Mine isn't that extensive. You definitely want to try Bekit's flash before throwing in the towel.

As for SEARS, I wouldn't worry about it - they probably won't even notice. When I returned my first one, they didn't even open the box. Seriously.
[G Tablet General] anosis:
The link you provided (I already went there before) had a link inside to download the necessary fiels but all it did is link to the main forum page. I never was able to find the correct files until this morning I believe. I found another post on these forums that had 'dropbox' links to several files that I downloaded.

So now I ended up with 1) the Tegra MSI installation file 2) the g tab image files and 3) the windows script files with the batch file. I will attempt these tonight and report back.

We are in the middle of moving - finally home owners again at last ;-). I have no internet connection at my new house yet however my SGS and tethering are my friend right now, so I can post and download at a lower rate.

Thaks for the help!!

You need the latest version of Messenger on your PC to be able to log into multiple locations. I have Live Essentials 2011 and I'm not having this problem.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] N8ter:
You can do Multiple Logins with the XP-compatible version of Messenger, as well as the Messenger in Windows Live for Windows Mobile 6.5.x.

The issue lies with the third party client you are using from the Windows Marketplace. I'm pretty sure this issue will cease to exist when Microsoft introduces their own, first-party, messenger client for WP7.

I highly doubt they will leave that market app as the only choice.
