i know that our Desire Z support DLNA, but i'm pretty bumped that it doesn't support seeing/connecting to ad-hoc networks... i need that because i want to connect the phone to my xbox, without connecting xbox to the internet... the only way to do it is to turn off internet connection from the router, and make xbox connect to it...
i made some tweaks to the wifi, but only got to a "place" where my wifi could see Ad-Hoc, but can't connect to it...
so my question is, did they add the feature to connect to Ad-Hoc networks on ICS??
thank you!

It's NOT ARC's problem, it's google android system doesn't support the ADHOC mode.
But it's annoying that android still doesn't support AD-HOC network. So if you want to use the phone with another ADHOC wifi spot, eg, my mobile broadband contract with unlimited data, ARC cannot "SEE" the ADHOC network. Any ideas?
There is something done on the system/bin/wpa_supplicant but that wouldn't apply to 2.3 system.
I need ad-hoc support too.. Anyone succeed to enable it ?
Anyone has any ideas on how to enable it ?
Nothing new about ad-hoc on xperia arc ? I tried to replace my wpa_supplicant with files from other ROMS, and it didn't worked.
Anyone succeed to enable ad-hoc support on xperia arc ?
plz help. i really need ad-hoc support
As far as i know, you need a wifi dongle with Access point capabilities and then you should install connectify on your pc, that should let it function as a wifi router, if not the only other option is buying a wifi router, which is pretty cheap nowadays.
which roms other than cyanogenmod support ad-hoc wifi ?
or any way to enable ad-hoc detection on ics 4.0.4 ??
my device is xperia arc s
I really dont know what ad-hoc is
sorry
did you mean wifi direct
ad hoc wifi means sharing your lan internet on your pc through wireless usb adapter like a wifi hotspot or from your laptop
but android phones with stock roms can't detect this connection , nokia and apple devices can
Is there a way to use the One X as a router?
One X connected to internet via Internet Pass-Through and the open Hotspot (without 3G connection).
Why I want this?
I have a PC with wired connection and no Wi-Fi (router is dead somehow) and untill I'll have another router I only have one outcoming internet connection and three computers...
two words wifi hotspot ^^
LoL I'm not dumb...
It doesnt work, thats why I have posted that question...
I think there is an option for USB pass through on CM. Not so sure about on a Sense based rom, though?
Just connect USB and where it say charge only or mass storage there's a option for internet pass through you carnt use WiFi and WiFi hotspot at the same time

Again, I'm asking if its possible to use internet pass through and then transmit it via Hotspot.
Yes you can.
With the default Hotspot and HTC's internet pass through?
Tried twice and it didn't work.
Like I said you can do it with USB but not hotspot if you use hotspot it will use 3g and you carnt connect to WiFi using WiFi hotspot but if you connect USB there's a option to use internet pass through wich will allow you to use you phone like a WiFi dongul
Skydragon team
OK I understand that is isn't possible as none of you got the idea of what I'm saying xD
Thanks for the comments and the will to help anyway, guess I should just buy a router...
*Mods you can lock now*
Sorry, I'm mistaken. What DOES work is turning WiFi on the phone, then connecting the phone in Tether mode. Wouldn't really help you though cos it's the opposite of what you need >.<
Hi Guys,
I searched almost all the threads related to the issue, but found nothing that works. I have an old laptop that I want to use as a virtual router for my other devices. But sadly, it can only broadcast ad-hoc network. Even with Connectify I could not get it to broadcast in infrastructure mode. Now that is not a roblem with my other devices, they can see the ad-hoc and connect. Except or my Gnex.
I am using stock rooted 4.2.2 with latest radio and Franco's kernel. Is there any way I can get it to connect t ad-hoc?
Would be great if you could help me out. Otherwise I would have to go and buy an actual router (which I am trying to avoid).

Either you have to edit the supplicant list or get any of the workarounds. Have you tried this?
Hello everyone,
I have a broadband wired connection at home on my laptop (Lenovo GT570) and i tried to use the ad hoc wireless connection to make it a wireless router. But where my nokia N97 device searched and connected to my laptop hotspot, my HTC one x could not search not connect to my laptop.
I used every kind of security key like WPA WEP etc....
Even my phone doesnt connect to some smaller android versions like gingerbread, when tried to connect to their wifi hotspot.
I know that Android would not connect to Joiku Hotspot in my Nokia N97 due to android security issues.
Please Help to find a way to connect to my laptop wifi hotspot as well as to the older android versions.
Thanks in advance

Well just go in Control Panel..Internet connections..And go to make new connection and chose to share you laptop's internet..It must work..In my case it worked.. Or search on internet,hotspot programs or something like that
