[Q] Stock roms issue with Ad-hoc wifi - Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hi
i only can use my wifi in ad-hoc mode (in access point mode stability and speed getting ruind)
and stock rom andoid and based on stock roms (like arconium) has issue with ad-hoc (can't find them!)
so i use miui and miui roms are ok with ad-hoc
is there any way to use my ad-hoc wifi in stock roms?

I am sure Doomlord and other senior developers could port the CM or MIUI wifi to stock ROM......Guys please I have tried many tweaks on stock ROM but nothing worked for me to connect my ARC S to Ad Hoc network.

Use the Barnacle Wifi Tether for Ad-hoc connections.

Ususally it should work.
You can share you're internet connection, but afaik you can also disable this.

tested and doesn't work .
it seems it's only for sharing phone internet . not using ad hoc wifi !

I've never tested it for not sharing your internet connection. I just know it from my X8, where you haven't had a wifi tether and so you could share over an ad hoc network.
But it creates a ad hoc connection, and you can't disable internet?

[Q] Please help Re: tethering and LAN connection

Hello everyone! First time poster here.
I've been looking for solutions all over and i can't seem to find one...
Internet at home is down and I'm tethering on my phone (tilt2 energy rom w/ att). Tethering works fine but i have to disconnect from the LAN to make it work.
Tethering internet creates another connection independent from the LAN.
I am using windows 7 and i'm wondering if there's any way i can tether internet on my phone and be connected to the LAN at home?

You could tether via Wifi or Bluetooth instead of USB.
thank you! that did it

ad-hoc support

Hi guys,
As the title suggest , is there an ad-hoc support for the gn?

any answer????
Openen Hotspot with Connectify
-Nokia E51 connects (with and without encryption)
-Samsung Galaxy Nexus doesn't even show the hotspot.
adding the network manually is not working either

i tired every app and method available with no luck
i think the solution is to add ad-hoc support
I think the default wpa-supplicant doesn't support adhoc. We need to replace it with one that supports. I don't know if someone has made/fixed it yet. Still waiting for it as well.
Ad.Hoc
did you manage to connect through Ad.Hoc? I cannot find Adhoc in my Galaxy Note!! Can we enable AdHoc on Note?
Also need to use adhoc but my Nexus doesn't detect any...
i will try tonight,as i has my laptop at my GF's house.and wont be there until tonight .
but yha. if nobody has posted til than.
than be sure to watch out for my post
Btw,did any one of you guys try wifi direct?
im kinda unsure what it really does.
Did some search in Google and previous NEXUS had the same problem some users were telling to change wpa_supplicant in /system/bin but I think the one they where providing its not compatible with SGN.
As someone already said, I am not even able to see the an adhoc wifi network with my Galaxy Nexus.
My device is rooted but so far I did not find an easy solution to enable adhoc wifi.
However the same adhoc network works perfectly with an EEEpad transformer, so apparently the wifi client is already modified in the Asus tablet.
Has there been any update to this? Been searching this site and others and it doesn't seem like a wpa-supplicant file that can see Ad-hoc networks has been created yet.
I use Connectify - works pefectly.
Supposedly the 4.0.2 update should bring ad-hoc support.
I'm eagerly awaiting the roll-out... (Should have happened ages ago, but somehow it's taking quite a while to propagate everywhere.)
I suppose you could always go ahead and flash your own ROM, but personally I prefer to wait for the official OTA update.
I'm using a 4.0.3 ROM and before that had stock 4.0.2 and no ad hoc support was/is available. There is Wifi Direct which acts like ad hoc but that only works with other Wifi Direct devices.

Oh, Bother!
I was betting on 4.0.2 to solve this, but as you say, it appears that it's only the wifi-direct that frequently gets billed as 'ad-hoc-like' connection.
Is there any other way to enable ad-hoc connections?
Apparently on other devices there exist modified wpa_supplicant files that enable ad-hoc, but so far I haven't seen anything for the GN.

Unfortunately I'm running XP (yeah I know ) here at the office so Connectify won't work - no access point connections on XP.
any possible solution?
Use bluetooth to connect to your computer and share your internet connection with your phone.
I've tried it on windows xp.

hello
it also cant find laptop wifi but my laptop can find all ad hoc wifis becoz in afghnistan we have problem of signal in home i am potting my nokia in the roof of house and using wifi with jokiuspot in my nokia but unfortunatly i cant use my arc s plz help
If I am correct, android phone by default cannot connect or detect an ad hoc connection. You need to root it and modify something.
If you are running windows on pc, you could try using Connectify. It lets you share Internet connection as access point instead of ad hoc which android phone could detect and connect.
You could use a laptop to connect to the ad hoc first then share the connection using the software above.
Kinda troublesome but it is the only solution I can think of right now.

Stock ROMs will not show ad hoc, and their is no workaround for it. Try CyanogenMod, it can detect ad hoc networks.

ad-hoc wifi

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
