Windows Mobile 6 and Linux Tethering

Short and simple... is there a way to use the Internet Sharing program on WM6 to share my Cingular 3g connection with my Linux OS (Ubuntu 7.04)? preciate it!

i'm going to follow this thread..
btw, the ubuntu forums are amazing, someone on there might know! http://ubuntuforums.org/
i use ubuntu on my main general use laptop.. few other distros around the house.

Technically speaking, short and simple - yes. But in reality that depends on how friendly you are with Linux.
RNDIS is supported on Linux these days. Here is an interesting alternative approach if compiling kernels is above your head - install VMware and tether with "host only" networking. Good luck.

Are they (WM6 and Linux) able to syncronise yet?
I could never get SynCE working, nor find instructions on how to get it working either. Even tried a VMWare Windows client, but because Linux wouldn't recognise the WM5/6 at the USB driver level, then the VMWare session couldn't either.
That was about 12 mths ago though ... does/can it work now?

Not to Hi-Jack the thread but I would also like to do this on OS X.
Unix/Linux- Gotta be a Script out there?
I had a great Modem Script that shared my HSDPA connection over WM5 and OS X but it dosent work with XDA Live 2.0 WM6...

On OSX make sure your device has the "Network Access Point" bluetooth profile and tether by using bluetooth PAN. You'll need to use the internet sharing app in the phone before it will work.
I'm not sure how to get it working over USB, but bluetooth is faster the the edge connection I get with the phone so I never tried.

Thanks for your reply. I will give it a go tomorrow!
Muchos ta.

For me - doesn't work. But I haven't try very hard, to be honest.

I am using VMWare 6.0 Beta with WinXP Pro as guest in Fedora Core 6 host. I can use ActiveSync to synchronize my Hermes and Outlook with no problems at all. Strange that yours doesn't work. :-o

@roostar
I typed up a long guide on how to do this, but the somehow lost it(I love testing betas, but there are reasons they are beta[my browser I'm talking about])
Basically, You need a new modem script which I have uploaded for you here
There are many guides on how to do this, here is one:
Here are the steps I followed to tether my 8525 to my PowerBook G4. Should work for any Mac w/ Bluetooth.
Download the HTC TyTN modem script from: http://www.box.net/public/zxjp6ummyz
Drag the “HTC TyTN” script to your Hard Drive’s “Library/Modem Scripts”
On your 8525, click “Start/Settings/Connection/Bluetooth.” Check both “Turn on Bluetooth” and “Make this device discoverable to other devices.”
Use your Mac to establish a new Bluetooth connection with the 8525. If the Bluetooth Icon is in your top right toolbar, scroll down to “Set Up Bluetooth Device…”
Check “Any Device” (My Mac did not recognize my 8525 as a Mobile phone and calls it “Pocket PC”).
Check “Pocket PC” and “Continue.”
Follow the instructions for entering the Passkey on the 8525 and hit “next”. In Bluetooth Setup, make sure to select your device for use to connect to the internet.
Now fill in the Bluetooth settings on the Mac:
Sevice Provider: Any name you want, i.e “Cingular”
Account Name: [email protected] (ALL CAPS)
Password: CINGULAR1 (ALL CAPS)
Telephone: *99#
Check PPP Options and make sure “Use TCP header compression” is NOT checked.
Click the blue “Bluetooth Modem” bar and for the Modem’s drop down menu and check “HTC TyTN.”
On the 8525 go to Start/Programs/Wireless Modem.” Change the “Connection Type” from USB to Bluetooth. On the right soft key, hit “Menu/Start.”
Now you are ready to connect. Open “Internet Connect” go to “Bluetooth” and click “Connect.”
Everytime you want to tether the 8525 to the Mac, you will have to go to “Wireless Modem” first and turn it on before connecting with “Internet Connect.”

There are many, many, many guides on how to do this. If what I have given you is not enough, then do some googling. Google is your friend. It may take a minute or two to find exactly what you want, but if someone else has even had the same problem as you, you will find it. Here is another guide for you.
These are all for Cingular, excuse me At&T... but if you have another carrier, you can find the settings here at Ross Barkman's homepage. he maintains a list of u/p for various carriers(international) and has done more for one's ability to connect to the internet using bluetooth through your phone's nternet connection. It is a great resource.
Everything I have given you should at least get well on your way, if not all the way there. It works well(better when I use it where they have 3g, in my area[sw. florida] it will be installed later this year ).
Hope this helps.

Thanks again.

About to bump a really old thread:
As of today, I have USB tethering working with Internet Sharing and WM6. You have to use the usb-rndis-lite driver from the synce project and apply a patch to it to get it to recognize the hermes in Internet sharing mode. For me I prefer USB tether since I don't run my battery dead as quickly without BT on. In any case, if anyone's interested in the patch I'd ask on the linux-usb-devel mailing list or check the archives there. Hopefully it'll be in the kernel sometime... if it ever makes it all you'll have to do to get your hermes to work is plug it in.

Ok...found the magic bullet for anyone that is still looking to do this. I took this from pdaphonehome LINK
I now have my 8925 tilt working as a cellular modem for my laptop running Ubuntu 7.10. This solution actually works really well...if anyone has trouble hit me up I can get you through it.
----Quoted----
After many hours of tinkering, I got USB tethering with wvdial.
First, start the Wmodem program on the Tilt and select USB. Then click Menu-->Start
On the command line type: /sbin/modprobe ipaq vendor=0x0bb4 product=0x00cf
Now plug in your USB cable
If you type dmesg you should see that ttyUSB0 is now initialized
Create a /etc/wvdial.conf with the following:
[Dialer Defaults]
Modem = /dev/ttyUSB0
ISDN = off
Modem Type = Analog Modem
Baud = 460800
Init = ATZ
Init2 = ATZ+CGDCONT=1,"IP","ISP.CINGULAR"
Init3 =
Init4 =
Init5 =
Init6 =
Init7 =
Init8 =
Init9 =
Phone = *99#
Phone1 =
Phone2 =
Phone3 =
Phone4 =
Dial Prefix =
Dial Attempts = 1
Dial Command = ATDT
#Ask Password = on
Password = CINGULAR1
Username = [email protected]
Auto Reconnect = off
Abort on Busy = off
Carrier Check = on
Check Def Route = on
Abort on No Dialtone = on
Stupid Mode = on
Idle Seconds = 0
Auto DNS = on
Lastly create a file called /etc/ppp/peers/wvdial containing the 2 lines:
lcp-echo-failure 0
lcp-echo-interval 0
Now at a command prompt type wvdial
You should see it connect and get an IP address
You can put the modprobe statement in /etc/rc.local
Hope this helps... it works for me (I am posting this via the USB tether right now)
Also, can an admin change this thread name and add a SOLVED to it?

You can accomplish this relatively easy by using a bluetooth dongle. I think this would work with MAC too. With Bluetooth its using standard bluetooth internet sharing/networking technology, whereas Activesync is a bit more Microsoft-centric.
Google around the ubuntu forums for some tips. There are some threads out there with this topic. I was successful at it, but unfortunatley I don't remember the exact steps. I"ll poke around my laptop later and see if I can't dig up the script i created.
Plugging the bluetooth dongle in every time became a PITA and a drain on my phone's battery so i just switch over to my windows partition if I really need some 3G action.
I also made it work with a Windows VM running under Virtual BOX in Ubuntu. Again, not as elegant, but it worked.
Good luck.

Two Way Street?
Is there any way of reversing this? For instance, using the Ubuntu box's internet to pass through on to the WM device (Internet-->Ubuntu-->WM). I currently have an IP address via rndis (169.254.2.2) on my Ubuntu for my WM device, but am uncertain how to get the packets to "jump" to my eth1 device. Any help would be appreciated.

I can't get it to phone home. I get the following error when I... "wvdial".

What he said ^
You're supposed to install Manila Editor on your COMPUTER... and NOT on your PHONE!!!
Oh and btw... if you're running Vista (with UAC on)... right-click the Manila Editior executable and select "Run as administrator", otherwise you'll get errors!

Sorry if I intrude, but i installed it on my PC (vista!) and once I try to run select path, it doesn't let me see manila files in my HTC Touch HD. Anybody knows why? Many thanks

dial-up connection does not work

Hi everybody,
I am trying to setup a simple DUN connection to internet provider in Netherlands
This is a sort of open public network.
My PPC is HTC Touch Pro2
OS: WinMob 6.5 pro
ROM 1.88.404.3 (67102) NLD
I have made the following configuration:
My ISP
Name = KPN DirectInternet
Modem = Mobile Modem
Telefoonnummer = +31676012321
User name = kpn
Password = is not needed
TCP/IP:
Use server-assigned IP-address = yes
Use SLIP = no
Use soft-compression = yes
Use IP-header compression = yes
SERVERS:
Use server-assigned IP-address = yes
The PPC starts to make connection, but after several seconds I get an error message:
“Due to unknown reason cannot make connection. If this problem remains, you have to reset your mobile apparatus to factory default …”
I have made the hard reset, but the problem remains.
I have called technical support of HTC.
They tried to setup the same connection on their Pro2 and got exactly the same error.
So, it was it least clear that this is not a specific problem of my telephone.
Finally HTC told that they have little knowledge about dial-up connections and cannot help me.
They also told that Mobile Windows does not create a modem log files.
So it is not possible to trace what exactly the problem is.
Can anyone help, please?
Is any way there to create a modem log file ?
Has anyone the same problem?
Thank you very much in advance !

Tech kids help?.....

HELP...?
Hi, ive had my HTC Touch HD for like 14 months or so now, (since it was released)
and i CANNOT for the life in me work out the whole CAB, manila, etc thing... i'm generally quit tech minded and consider myself easy to adapt to this stuff... but i've been completely beat...
I just can't work it out..... i managed to brownload that TF3D program to open the files from within but im limited to certain themes with that program.... its in fact the 'Vista' theme that i love and want! but its a CAB and when i download it it downloads as just an 'Attatchment.php' file and i dont know what to do with it!
What am i missing... i've read everything there is to read on this forum... and im STILL totally lost.
Help Me!

Hi there,
let me give you a few definitions
*.CAB = an installer file, it can add items to the regisrty and install files to your device
Manila = the interface that was installed on your device when you got it, there are 3 versions:
Version 2.0, TouchFlo3d = the interface installed on 1st gen devices sucha as the diamond, raphael and blackstone
Version 2.1, TouchFlo3d2 = the interface installed on second gen devices such as the Rhodium and Topaz
Version 2.5, Sense 2.5 = the newst interface from htc, found on the HD2 (Leo, this is a 3rd gen device). HTC have also released for tp2 and diamond 2 users running stock
Resolutions
WVGA = 800X480, HD1, HD2, Pro3, Rhodium, Topaz, Kovsky (XperiaX1), x2
VGA = 640X480, diamond, kaiser, raphael
These are the 2 main rese's you will here about
Porting:
As the HD is a wvga device, chefs have copyed files from the HD2, so you have get ROMs with sense 2.5
Any more descriptions needed, post em here and i'll see what i can do
Hope this helps

your attachment.php issue suggests your browser is simply not downloading the file, but rather the script that websites have to direct your browser to the file you want (something like that, im not a web guy). make sure you arent right clicking and saving as file/link when you download the file, but are left clicking on the download link. also, try changing browser.
but im pretty sure that the .php isnt the file you want in any form.

[APP] XDAndroid Startup Utility - v1.3.1 - 29-OCT-2010

Welcome to the XDAndroid Startup Utility thread. This app can be installed in Windows Mobile 6.0 Pro and up which manipulates startup.txt depending on which checkboxes are selected in the Options screen.
The app also has an update utility which can download the latest kernel, rootfs, and initrd.
Currently it supports generating startup.txt for Rhodium, Raphael, Blackstone, Diamond, and Topaz. This thread is mainly for Rhodium support (since that's the only phone I have), but other device posts are welcome so long as it's only related to this application and not to Android specifically.
Regards,
Sov
*Special thanks for Reefermattness for supplying the slick graphics! HERE is his thread for his CAB project that is used with my startup utility.
If this app has made your life easier, send me some coffee money so I can get less sleep and stamp out more code!!
DOWNLOAD HERE
After you download, give me a shout out what you think about this app. I'm getting 1,000's of downloads, but only a few comments. I just want to know how well this app is working for you... THANKS!
Sov
__________________________________________________
XDAndroidStartup v1.3.1
XDAndroidStartup v1.3.1 Mirror (Mediafire) - for those that have problems downloading from filefront
* Fixed an issue with smaller than previous update files corrupting when overwriting the older one on the device - update.zip is checked for existence and deleted if exists now...
__________________________________________________
XDAndroidStartup v1.3 - Depricated
* Added visual cues while downloading and unzipping updates
* Fixed an issue with update not always being unzipped into the android directory specified
__________________________________________________
XDAndroidStartup v1.2.4b3 - Depricated
This one should finally fix the rel_path issue. The cold medicine is getting to me today...
GOTCHA'S:
no longer put a "\" before your path in Advanced. For instance if your Android directory is \Storage Card\froyo then just type "froyo" (without quotes) in the text box. You'll get the idea when you see the new layout of the Advanced page...
Known bugs:
*Putting your android file system in the root of the sdcard might still not work...go ahead and try it and give me feedback, though!
__________________________________________________
XDAndroidStartup v1.2.4b2 - Depricated
Added rel_path for users having issues when the Android file system is somewhere other than "andboot".
*Non-english users, please let me know if DirectoryNotFound exception is still working with this version...
__________________________________________________
XDAndroidStartup v1.2.4b1 - Depricated
This is beta for non-english phone users to see if the DirectoryNotFound exception is fixed. I only have a Tilt 2 so I can't check it. Let me know how it goes...
__________________________________________________
XDAndroidStartup v1.2.3 - Depricated
Knows bugs:
* DirectoryNotFound exception in non-English phones - under investigation...
* Some people report that it will not boot Android with the Android Directory (Haret.exe location) set to \Storage Card (root) in advanced settings, but very few say this...
__________________________________________________

FAQ:
Q: What do those dern things mean in Advanced Settings?
A: CDMA = Sets force_cdma=1 in startup.txt. This is for CDMA phones. If you pick the correct phone on the main screen, XDAndroid Startup sets this option for you..
HW3D = Sets hw3d.force=1 in startup.txt. This is needed for most phones now (even the Rhodium, YAY!) in order to take advantage of Hardware 3D rendering instead of the slow software rendering.
N. Am. Dial = North American Dialing - This is required for north american prefixes and for Google Voice to work. I haven't used Google Voice personally, but have been told it is necessary.
Post-Android Auto Backlight = xdandroid startup automatically sets winmo registry settings to disable auto backlight dimming so android can control. Upon rebooting winmo a .exe file needs to be placed into the start directory of winmo if auto backlight is to be re-enabled in winmo. Check this box if you want auto-backlight to be re-enabled in winmo upon reboot.
Overclock? = Sets acpuclock.oc_freq_khz=XXXXXX in startup.txt (XXXXXX = the Overclock Level you select just below * 1024)
Overclock Level = If Overclock? (above) is checked, this sets the XXXXXX value (see above) to your selection * 1024.
Manual Startup.txt = check this box if you want to use your own startup.txt instead of xdandroid startup generating it.
Storage Card\<insert your android directory here>\Haret.exe = This is where you tell XDAndroid Startup where haret.exe is and this tells Haret where the android files are.

Anyone for Screenshots???

might need a changelog, huh????

I had to deal with the "directory not found " bug since i've got a german Rhodium.
I just changed the Path from "Storage Card\Andboot" to "Speicherkarte\Andboot" and it worked so it seems that the only problem here is that the Patch "Storage Card" is translated into the equal language of the phone and therefore the default path can't be found
Ps: Please excuse my bad english ^^

@Gronkdalonka
Not all german roms are concerned.
----------
Das hatte ich natürlich als erstes geändert, aber der Fehler ist ein anderer, der nicht bei allen deutschen ROMs auftritt. Es gibt eine lange Fehlermeldung.

What do the options in the Settings of the Startup Utility represent?
I know what HW3D, Overclock, and Force CDMA mean, but what about the rest?
Thank you

The actual bug that I'm referring to in my first post is about the exception that comes up when loading the app on non-english phones. Some devices are getting a directoryNotFound Exception.
What you are referring to is not a bug, but a feature. That setting is there for people that want to move android around instead of in the default directory. And, yes of course, people with non-english phones will have to edit that option in advanced...

Ah, sorry, my bad

XDAndroid Startup Utility 1.2.4b1 posted in first post. Non-english phone users please try and give some feedback about the DirectoryNotFound Exception.
Thanks!!

Thanks, its working, but reed until the end.
It started after I have renamed HARET.EXE to Haret.exe and edited androidroot.txt (/Speicherkarte/ANDBOOT).
Maybe it was a capital letter problem after the extraction of the android.rar in Windows 7 and copy of the extracted folder to the sd card.
But then I got the next error message in german:
... Please install NETCFv.35.Messages.DE.wm.cab for WM 5.0 or NETCFv.35.Messages.DE.cab ...
System.Net.Sockets.Socket.ReceiveNoCheck(Byte[]buffer, Int32 size, SochetFlags socketFlags)

I have installed that file from here:
http://www.gps-vor.de/netcf35.htm
but i got the same error.
The phone is going in suspend and came up with that error.
I tried with my fingers on the touchpanel during updating and its working now.
I hope you can understand my poor english.

1) I think it was the directory problem (see answer 2) and not HARET.exe being capitalized. I have the file as HARET.exe also (capitalized) and it works on my Tilt 2.
2) Did you try changing the directory to /Speicherkarte/ANDBOOT from the Advanced Options page instead of editing androidroot.txt directly? I only ask because I'm wondering if you had a problem setting the directory using the app since you didn't say whether you did or not.
3) Did you get that error message when you pressed Update in the app or it just came up without pressing anything?
Regards,
Sov

I got this error after I pressed the update button, got a black screen und pushed power button.
After changing the folder in the program, the androidroot.txt was not changed and I did it by myself. (maybe not needed)
