Hi,
i am currently trying to tether my tp2 with my mac book. With the xda orbit i had before the tp2 this was no issue at all however i cant seem to get it to work with the tp2. Problem is that the tp2 doesn't seem to advertise its PAN functionality anymore when the devices are paired. So the macbook thinks the tp2 doesn't support PAN. Now when I use the internet sharing app on the tp2, it tries to connect to the macbook and then tells me that the macbook wouldn't support PAN and therefore the connection cannot be shared. On the xda this worked slightly different: the xda would open up a PAN when I started internet sharing. Then i told the macbook to connect to this PAN. So i have a catch-22 here. Any ideas on how I could get this to work?
thank you,
Kork
On a funny sidenote: this worked yesterday for a few minutes. I activated connection sharing on the tp2, and it asked me where to connect to, i selected the macbook, et voila... This was actually even better than on my XDA as I could connect in a single step.
Today i just get the message that the target system (my Macbook) would not support PAN and therefore no connection could be made - which is an outright lie...
Called HTC about it. They were actually clueless and recommended to hard reset the device. Well I got all the time in the world, did a hard reset, no change. This still remains not working. Has anyone a working bluetooth tethering between the TP2 and Mac OS X?
Had a nice talk with Apple Support for half an hour now. We tried the usual stuff, and the guy was very friendly and trying to help me, but the bottom line was "we do not support windows mobile phones, htc has to make it work with a Mac". This came not totally unexpected though. So back to square one, I am not yet giving up. But no tethering is a blocker...
Okay, guys we are getting closer. I digged deeper into the Bluetooth Settings of Mac OS X and found out that the PAN set up is stored in com.apple.Bluetooth.plist in /Library/Preferences on the Mac. With my old XDA paired, i got some Entry in there called PANDevices and the Device-ID of the XDA in that list. The Device-ID of my TP2 was not in there. So i manually added the Device-ID of my TP2 and guess what - Tethering Happyness . Problem is, on any reboot, the setting gets lost. So i am going to write a small script that fixes the plist file. I'm doing a bit of testing as well, to see if this is really the fix, but I'm getting close.
Seems that wasn't it either. It seems that the restart of Mac OS X's bluetooth daemon actually did the trick, the changes in the file were actually pointless. So now I got reproducible behaviour:
1. Restart Computer
- Connection sharing from TP2 to Mac doesn't work.
2. Restart the bluetooth daemon
- sudo killall -HUP blued
3. In bluetooth preferences, click Advanced and tick "Share my internet connection with other bluetooth devices"
4. Start the internet sharing application on the TP2. Now it works. You have to repeat steps 1 to 3 if you reboot your Mac.
Going to give Apple another call, as this clearly looks like some bug on Mac OSX side.
This is exactly why if I get the TP2 I will be keeping my n78 or e71 as a backup phone. With Joiku Spot it makes it so easy to tether. Actually, I wonder if there is a program like Joiku Spot that would do this.
For those who don't know, Joiku Spot makes your phone a wireless hub, and creates a wireless network which your computer can attach, thus using the internet from your phone on your computer. I have a macbook, and with Joiku Spot, i'm getting roughly 1800 download speeds on my mac when i'm tethered.
There is: http://www.joikushop.com/?action=products&mode=productDetails&product_id=265 - > WMWifiRouter.
However, having WiFI + UTMS is going to drain your battery pretty quickly, that's why i use bluetooth all the time, which makes the device last much longer. But i guess the WIFI option would be more compatible with all kinds of OSes...
Yes, but when I am tethering i generally have access to a plug outlet so i have no problem plugging my phone in while i'm using it as a wifi hot spot. I was using my e71 via bluetooth on both OS X and XP and my speeds are doubled with using wifi. bluetooth can only transfer so fast.
Well i use it a lot on train rides where you can consider yourself lucky if you got an outlet for your laptop let alone one for your mobile phone... So bluetooth is the way to go...
You could use a USB charge cable to keep your phone powered off of the laptop battery, while using WMWiFiRouter or any other similar program for your connection.
Although I guess if your trying to have all this done wirelessly, that kind of defeats the purpose.
That would be a good reason! but, TP2 supports usb charging, so that shouldn't be a problem. Then, you can plug your laptop in at work or wherever you're going!
Just read what Tecknik said, so it's about the same!
TP2 tether to macbook pro
Hello, I'm also trying to get my tp tethered to macbook. There is an option under BT in Mac to specify username and a phone number to use BT to connect to a modem, do i need to specify any of this information? OR do I just need to select to "share internet with other BT device" on the mac?

I used to be able to tether fine about a week ago but now i'm getting the following msg:
"failed to establish internet sharing connection to remote device as it supports only network access point (nap) mode"
any thoughts? there is a bluetooth pan connection in network settings on my macbook. I've deleted it and recreated with no luck.
and "share my internet connection..." is checked in my device's advanced options from the bluetooth settings on my macbook.

That's the message i get all the time after rebooting. You could try the steps I described above, this usually makes it work for me. Until next reboot, though.

I Tether on all my MacBook/Netbook using WMWiFiRouter all the time.
Just enable Wifi on your Mac and it autodetects some PAN settings -even on the airport card. Give this app a try.
This has known to work on Tiger and Leopard. Never tried it on SnowLeopard though.
Well sounds easy enough. However isn't Wifi eating up your battery like a starving ogre?
Killing BT with Terminal worked great. I have been struggling with this problem for a couple of days now. Nice work. Very much appreciated. I am going to link to this solution from my post. I did not yet verify the failure to function after reboot but I will test that. I'd love to have a script that does this automatically.

WMWiFiRouter eats up way too much battery, faster then the device can charge via USB (and my USB charing isn't working but thats another story)

Thanks, worked just fine.
Is there a way we can create a script to place on the desktop so we can just open up a shortcut that will automatically do this?
I have a quick question about WiFi tether. I have tether working with netarchy's "Burnt Droid" ROM, and my computer connects. Near me, there are about 7 other WiFi networks being used. (Most WPA encrypted, some WEP). Almost all, except my home network, are on channel 6. I have my home network on channel 11 there are 2 others here on channel 1. I tried to change the channel on my EVO to broadcast on Channel 11 also. In the EVO, it says it is broadcasting on channel 11, but when I run "inSSIDer" on my laptop, it still shows my phone broadcasting on channel 6. I have tried to reboot the phone after changing channels, and have tried to reinstall binaries.
What do I have to do to change the broadcast channel in the Tether app?
Menu, settings, change channel. Can be done once the app is lunch.
BTW hope u were/are referring to the wireless tether app and not WiFi tether.
Sent from my EVO using XDA App
Ok, what is the difference between wireless tether app and wifi tether? I am using the "Android Wifi Tether 2.0.5 pre 4" I have heard bad results from pre 6, and pre 7 does not broadcast. (Not found with laptop, OR running inSSIDer app). Pre 4 works perfect for me, is seen by my laptop and connects both unsecured and secured.
I should have given more details in my original question. The steps I have taken are: Open Wifi tether app, Click Menu, Click settings, select Change Channel... From there, I selected channel 11. I have tried changing the channel both with the Wifi started and while stopped, with no difference in results.
My laptop still can see the "Android Tether" and connects.
I go into "inSSIDer" which is an app that will detect all the Wireless networks in your area, the signal strength, type of encryption, AND broadcast channel. The app shows my EVO as broadcasting on channel 6. REGARDLESS of what channel I select in settings, it will still show as broadcasting on channel 6. I have tried to re-install binaries, re-start the tether app, reboot the phone, nothing works.
Yes, I know i can just use channel 6 since it works, but with all the other "traffic" on the channel, it would be preferable to change to a less busy channel.
Ok we are referring to the same app the app name is wireless tether, peps just call it WiFi tether. But if u change it to Chan 11 and u stop and restart it should be on Chan 11. The other app may be reading the Chan incorrectly. Try a different app to see if it reads it. If the next app reads it as Chan 6 then it's an issue with wireless tether aka WiFi tether.
Try that and you would def.ly narrow down the possibilities.
Sent from my EVO using XDA App
I just tried it through 2 other WiFi channel scanners. They all keep showing my EVO as broadcasting on channel 6.
I have tried changing the channel both while tethered, and when tether was off. I have tried re-installing the binaries after a channel change, I have force closed and restarted the tether app, I have rebooted the phone...
Looks like even though the option is shown in the app, it is locked into channel 6.
Someone else has already submitted this as a bug:
http://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether/issues/detail?id=495
The new version, pre 8, now allows you to change channels.
I have a question as well, (noob here, so forgive me if i sound painfully ignorant lol) but my wifi tether isnt broadcasting. I have a samsung captivate(rooted through Unleash The Beast) running 2.1. It says wifi started but my computer cant see it. It has run before using the same firmware, so i cant figure it out. Iv reinstalled it multiple times. Also, on the bottom when i start it it stays at 0.0kb downloaded and 0.0kb uploaded, and im pretty sure its supposed to say at least 0.4 or 0.3 when you start it. Any suggestions?
I am having the same issue with my Epic 4g after root I cant get the wifi tether to work. It just doesnt broadcast.
I can see my braodcast from the evo but my laptop will not configre an IP connection. What is also weird is that my evo will not work with my home wifi as it also does not configure its IP address.
I've got an EVO running CM6 stable with android-wireless-tether (pre7). I am able to pair/connect to my home PC by setting up a bluetooth PAN in Windows 7. I right click on my device, choose "Connect > Access Point" and it says "Connection Successful". The only thing I get now is "Identifying..." until I am stuck with the good ol' 169.xx... IP address.
I checked the log for the wireless tether app, and it shows:
Enabling NAT rules... done
Enabling IP forwarding... done
Tethering now running... done
error: SIOCSIFFLAGS (Cannot assign requested address)
I've done a little research on the error and tried a few suggestions (rebuild binary/config files, changing the default LAN IP in awt settings) to no avail.
I also tried disabling WiFi and just attempting to share the 3G connection which still isn't working out (same error). Can anyone help me out with this one? I've also tried awt pre8 with the same results.
I had same setup and problem. Started the supper user app and quit app. Powered down phone restarted phone. After restart WiFi tether worked fine. Don't know why .
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
Just turn on wireless teather and the go to access conections fine androidap and connect to that. Why do you have to use blue tooth am I missing something? Wireless teather is in the settings with CM6 so you dont need an extra app for teather?
Thanks for the suggestions. I tried opening/closing SU app and rebooting, got the same result.
The reason why I am doing it this way is because I have a PC with only a network card (not WiFi). It's about 30/40 ft. from my router. Rather than buying a wireless card or some cable, I'm connecting via bluetooth and sharing my phones WiFi connection.
I understand if I had a WiFi adapter I could just use the built in Hotspot feature, but if I had WiFi, I would rather connect directly to the router.
I'm definitely interested in this too. At work, we have a no-wireless router policy, and I don't really feel like firing it up and have a guy holding a Fluke wireless network analyzer come and find me.
Bluetooth is alright for what I need. Seems to almost be a kernel issue or something. Worked *perfectly* with my N1, even with pre8. The EVO with CM6 stable isnt working. Just as a note, the wifi portion works correctly.
Actually let me rephrase : The bluetooth section does work, I believe there might be an issue related to the dnsmasq dhcp server not being able to serve IPs. The 'Upload' section of the information panel changes, the Green Download section stays 0.00. The client never receives an IP address, and thats about it.
Logcat didnt really show me much of anything critical error-wise, I'm really hoping that I can downgrade/upgrade a kernel in order to support whatever hardware changes there were between the N1 and the EVO.
I checked the wireless router wifi mode, and it no longer works either. 'Started with errors' is what I get now when in the wifi mode. The built-android wireless tether works fine, but I either wish I could hide the ESSID or have a bluetooth option available.
It *seems* related to the kernel, but logcat doesnt mention anything about not being able to load a module, and the wifi-tether app doesnt have a txt log, or does it?
Hi,
I have been trying to connect my Fire to my tethered connection (I have a Motorola Backflip with CM7).
I tried setting up infrastructure mode tethering but it seems that is unsupported by my phone (http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/35365-wifi-tethering-problem/)
Now I'm trying the other way around, enabling connections to an ad-hoc network from the Fire. I tried this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1353322
But it didn't do anything.
Any ideas of an alternate method? or if this will be even possible (is the hardware capable and it's only a matter of time before someone finds a work-around?).
Thanks!
There's no developer published wpa_supplicant replacement for Kindle Fire's system/bin/wpa_supplicant till now.

It's a BUG for Bzeek due to their lack of maintance?

Install ZT-180 Adhoc Switcher.apk
Before running it you'd better ROOT your Kindle Fire for higher user ability.
Run ZT-180 Adhoc Switcher
You should see Switch to Infrastructure mode / Switch to Ad-hoc mode button.
Click Switch to Infrastructure mode and it turns to Switch to Ad-hoc mode then you can click Settings button to set SSID and WEP password if possible.
I put into Bzeek Free WiFi as SSID as I'm using Bzeek and WEP is not selected for Bzeek. If you use other name and with WEP, just do your way.
Now the button display Switch to Ad-hoc mode, just click it and turn it to
Ad-hoc Mode, click Enable WiFi button and it will connect to Bzeek Free WiFi rapidly
Then it will ask you put in your Bzeek username and password, finally you can share the internet with WiFi Ad-Hoc from your laptop happily!
I post this method to a Chinese forum and you can check screenshot images and download links there better.
http://bbs.mydoo.cn/thread-54577-1-1.html
Succeeded to connect to any Ad-hoc
The method can be shorten as below
1. Go find ZT-180 Adhoc Switcher.apk , just google it, there will be several links.
2. Install the apk on a rooted KF.
3. Open it, tap settings before switch to Ad-hoc Mode
4. Input the SSID of the Ad-hoc WIFI you want to connect to. Also fill WEP (if needed) area.
5. Switch to Ad-hoc Mode. Wait a minute and you'll find your KF is connected to the Ad-hoc specified above.
There will be a "x" on KF's WIFI mark, but it doesn't matter, the ad-hoc link is working.
I tested connecting to my PSP, iPhone, Laptop(win7, ad-hoc wizard provided by OS), so I think it support all kind of Ad-hoc. Did a ping test to iPhone and Laptop for confirming. Ping works, so I think it should work fine.
P.S.
Seems it has nothing to do with Bzeek. Just use any ad-hoc.
Nice. Thanks for sharing this!
Does it have to be rooted? Has anyone tried unrooted?
Thanks PenDave.. Been working on this for 2 days, I had zt-180 on my phone (did'nt work).. Tried your methode and SUCCESSSSSS,,,
Nice tip, works great!
Finally able to connect to my KF to my OG Droid running Wifi Tether. All this time I thought it was a kernel problem.
Only problem I'm having is reconnecting to my KF to regular WiFi. I turned on "Infrastructure Mode", tried rebooting. Seems radio is stuck in "Ad-Hoc mode" now. Any ideas?
EDIT: After spending hours with "adb shell" to route out the problem, a "router reboot" fixed my connectivity problem. Nothing like that fresh noob feeling!
Can't get a connection between my HTC Inspire HD and my KF. Apparently ZT180 only supported WEP, so I tried turning security off entirely and still no connection. The KF wireless dialog says 'attempting' over and over but no dice. Any thoughts? Do I have to do something to my phone too?
You may have to reinstall the binary config in wifi tether on your phone, available in the menu option on the app main screen.
Has anyone found a way to connect the Kindle Fire to ad-hoc mode WITHOUT having to root?
Check out this post. My KF is rooted, my Inspire HD is not.

This morning I have been noticing that Wi-Fi connection has full strength connected to an access point, but has X next to it. Able to surf the internet, open IMDb and watch trailers, get updated for my location showing theaters near my location. Google maps show my location and Android Weather able to update location and weather. Lot more apps that require internet connection are responding quickly. The adhoc switcher is not running. The X sign will not go away in spite of rebooting KF and Access Point few times. Do you have any suggestions?
Thanks
had this with adhoc switcher to my work laptop - but every connection worked fine, so i did'nt care
thaught that it's because of some closed ports on our proxy
maybe the hotspot you used has also some closed ports

From my experience ZT-180 Adhoc Switcher won't work with ICS ROMs. I have tried on multiple versions (Energy, Reloaded, MIUI).
I found this a few minutes ago because I'm having the same problems (I have a Nokia E71 with Joikuspot as well). Will try this out tonight when I get some free time.

I see. Im new to android, this is my 1st experience using android platform. I have posted in my ROM thread asking about this but there isnt any reply. I thought that this ROM can run adhoc connection as stated from the 1st page of the ROM thread. Hope can get this adhoc connection worked as ive got no other source of getting online other than from my phone
I can confirm that the Galaxy Note wap-supplication doesn't work with the KF.
I am, like others here having problems using ZT-180.
Kindle Fire 7" HD rooted.
ZT-180 will open (though I do receive the error in attached screenshot), and I can enter the SSID of the my network.
I enter the SSID of the network that is being broadcast by my Android mobile phone, and I switch the Ad-hoc mode.
Once I do so, the internet connection is disable on the Kindle and it does not connect to my broadcasted ad-hoc network.
Has anyone had luck specifically using ZT-180 to connect to an ad-hoc being broadcast from their Android mobile phone? Is there a step or a setting that I may be missing? All that I have done on the Kindle is a) download ZT-180 , b) enter SSID of network , c) switch to ad-hoc .
Thanks.
Anybody know a good app that I can use to do bluetooth tethering with the A100 off of my phone (Droid X on Verizon)? I am not rooted on either and mobile hotspot is disabled on the phone by Verizon.
I use PDAnet with my netbook but the PDAnet for tablets doesn't seem to work (it will pair with but not connect with phone). Looking for other apps to try...
Thanks.

I do believe that all the droid devices can actually do Bluetooth tethering from within the settings app, look for Droid Life's article on that. Also, getting the pdanet for tablets to work correctly is, well, difficult.
To make it work, the devices have to be paired in the default settings on both devices, then the have to both be discoverable in the settings app (it makes it discoverable for 120 seconds.) After this, while both are still discoverable, and have been paired (should say paired but not connected in the settings app) Run the server on the phone. Next, do the proxy thing it asks you to do (if it doesn't take you to a proxy menu, push back until your back at pdanet, and push it again, you'll see the proxy menu this time) Now search for it on the tablet, its best to do this in portrait mode so you can see all of the clients at once. Once there, your phone will appear if all the prior steps are active and still working. Tada, connection.
Sadly, you can't use any of the google apps (youtube, gmail, market, ect.) due to the odd proxy settings it asked you to do before connecting, so only the browser (or dolphin browser, if you use that) will detect you have a connection, and let you use it. You can browse the web, use youtube (using the youtube site, not the app), and check your email (again, with its site, not the app). Another limitation is that you cannot download files. But, if all you want to do is browse the web on your tab, since its faster, it'll do fine.
Or you could use the better option, root the phone, throw up a wifi hotspot, and then connect to it, then all apps will work correctly.
