Psvita wifi tethering not working? - Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have read devices using wifi hotspots to gain connection to wifi only psvitas. But for some reason barnacles does not show up as an access point and open garden wifi tethering is left at always connecting. Does anyone know how to get around this?

why arent you using the native tethering? out of interest? could always try making it unprotected as this can fix about 2% of issues occasionally but try the native first

That would be so but cm7 doesn't have it for some reason. Only USB tether.

UPDATE: ok.. so i spent the last hour setting up my phone from cm7 to stockrom w/ doomkernel and it STILL does not work. the psvita can see my phone but cannot connect. I tried with and without encryption.

I am having the same issue. My Vita won't see Barnacle off my Xperia play, no matter any changes I have made to the settings. I am trying to find another wifi app to try but nothing so far works

Vita don't support adhoc hotspots barnacle only does adhoc same with iPhone but the built in one on stock rom works

have you tried http://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether/
i would use wifi_tether_v3_1-beta11.apk

Apologies for a super late response... thanks for the link but I already had that apk. Native works but Verizon blocks the usage of unauthorized tethering with the option to pay... cm7 actually makes good use of the APk because it doesnt have an apparent apk for wireless tethering. Psvita can be tethered to r800x using cm7.

[Q] Kernels for the r800x (tethering, specifically)

How far are we from seeing wireless tetherable kernels? Is there a reason we don't see them already? Anything I can do to help? Hope there is a solution soon!
I have no first hand experience (yet) but I thought that Android Wireless Tether worked, you just needed to tell it you were using a Nexus One or some malarkey like that.
You have to set it to ad hoc mode as well...my xoom can't detect it when I do that

i have wireless tether working just fine on stock kernel
wireless tether works fine untill you actually use it...te device thats using the connections gets rdirected to a verizon page prompting you to buy the tethering service. I head this was at the kernel level which would make sense, because my DX, OG Droid, and thunderbolt all tether no problems witout the redirct.

No, it does work, as long as you are rooted, set the device to nexus one, and use ad-hoc mode. Any other configuration redirects to verizon.

There was an article about verizon Wanting to charge for using their wireless tethering service... So you either pay or you download an app to do it... It requires a root phone though. I'm with rogers and tethering works well.

Yufice I made a post on general on how to work around it. I meant it when I said it works fine for me. I guess I was the only one that knew of a workaround untill I asked zero to post in development for me and test it out to make sure it wasnt a fluke that I got it working.

This set-up doesnt work on my R800x. To get it to work I have to set the devise to a CDMA device. If I set it to a GSM devise I cant connect to it. So if anyone else is having an issue getting it to work on the r800x try setting it to a CDMA devise.
I have mine set to nexus one and it works I tether daily

I set the latest version 3.0 beta 5 or whatever to device profile droid X(CDMA) and it works just fine. The only caveat is that limits you to WEP encryption so be sure to use mac filtering.
Cheers!

Do you get to use access point with this configuration, or only ad hoc?

I think its ad hoc only because it doesn't show up on the wifi list when I do it on my xoom.

It should support infrastructure, but it works fine with my transformer so I don't know.

^this, PLEASE
I'm on a verizon r800x rooted and I desperately want to use wi fi tethering....for free!
I've tried every combo with the app "Wifi tether" (the main popular one) with regular phone models and "CDMA" models (supposed to be the ones that work) to no avail!
It always clocks in like .4 kbs of data then stops...and then verizon pop up comes up if i try to access internet through the phone....and computer can't even connect to the hotspot
any tips/advice?

[Q] Wifi tethering app compatble with the 3DS? or necessary tweaking?

Hello.
First off thank you for reading.
Title pretty much asks the question... "Are there any settings I can tweak to make my 3DS work with this version? or any version? or maybe another Wifi tethering program I can download?"
I can get into specifics. I'm running ACS Frozen v1.2, with Genocide v2.0 Kernel, and I'm running the Wifi Tether program v2.0.7 (I'm not a fan of the packaged version, always seems to mess with my phone, giving me tons of force closes on the core system and swype, v2.0.7 gives me the connection I need to do what I need to do on my netbook, so why upgrade, unless necessary for my 3DS)
Thank you in advance!
I think the 3ds does infrastructure ony and most tether apps only do ad-hoc. Try using open garden tether from the new epic 4g apps section or google epic wifi tether infrastructure

Use WEP (64) security option. This worked with my ds lite
maybe 3ds supports more but the one above is the only tethering that could connect to my DS lite.
LOVE IT!!!!!
WiFi Hotspot works with my 3DS
I downloaded the Wifi Hotspot Trial from the Market today, and it seems to work fine with my 3DS connected to my Samsung Charge rooted with GummyCharge FE 2.0. This was after I was unable to get Open Garden or Barnacle to work with the same set up.
I really would like to get Open Garden working with it. I like the software overall. Still, Wifi Hotspot has done me well thus far.

Is there a wifi tether out that is working for the e4gt ?

Check out the sprint hotspot hack. Sorry for no link. Think it might be in the themes/app section

The previous 2 posts handle all of your needs. Hotspot hack is only for 3g right now Wifi Tether works great for 4g needs

STOCK E4GT with root... when I try to load any version of Wifi Tether it makes my wifi radio not work again at ALL until I uninstall wifi tether AND run another app that utilizes the wifi radio like the kies app after a restart. This is consistent after 4 different version attempts. I do NOT want to try to the deodexed hotspot hack until the LOS fix is official, because I do not want to run anything but stock until then. Anyone in my boat that has figured out how to make it all play nicely?

Let me see if I have what you said right. Without any tether app installed, just the sprint hotspot, the hotspot works. But then if you install wireless or wifi tether it makes the sprint hotspot not work?
I had the same issue. Until I did the same.
Sent from my SPH-P100 using XDA App
...not entirely. I mean the wifi could not connect to an access point until I ran the kies app. Did not try the stock tether app, because I don't want to pay for a service that I may use a couple times a year.
Also, seeing your sig you may be the person to help me. What is the best speed controller/motor combo for an old school RC10T that I want to get going again in a big way? Reverse stopped working a while ago and I am pretty sure the motor is shot as well. Been seeing some people clock ridiculous speeds with some of the new repower kits out there.
Never have been an electric guy, always nitro. But the brushless stuff is where its at and running lipo batts. Castle creations is one of the best companies out along with teken. Pricey stuff but they are well worth it. If you want more shoot me a pm.

WiFi Tether Compatible with PS3

I've tried Barnacle, Sprint Hotspot & WiFi Tether. Sprint Hotspot keeps giving me an Error message. The other 2 can't be detected by my PS3 scans. I've tried with & without password encryption & made sure my SSID was visible. Any suggestions?

Funny, this has popped up in the forums for every phone I have owned. Why would someone want to game through a high latency, inconsistant cellphone connection? Trying to play in the motorhome on vacation?
If Sprint Hotspot gives you issues, you'll need to flash THIS ...but that'll limit you to 3G. Does the PS3 work with AD-HOC connections (which is what wifi tether and barnacles app creates)? I'm guessing it doesn't by default since you can't see it.
Not gaming although I did play the Uncharted 3 Beta thru my Vibrant & it wasn't a problem. I just moved and have to wait for Comcast for like 2 weeks. Just want to watch some Netflix

I think what I read on Google says I need to be in Infrastructure mode or something. Idk... But the native wifi tether worked with my Vibrant so I can't imagine why it wouldn't work here.
Thanks for the help fellas. Happy Thanksgiving & all that

Barnacle Wi-Fi tether

Hopefully someone can shed some light on this.
I used to use Barnacle on my old Photon, and had no issues with it. Now I'm running it on Lifeless ROM for our phones, and while it doesn't spit out any errors, it certainly isn't functioning the way it should.
Barnacle starts and runs perfectly, even shows " sharing your connection" with no errors at all, but still, no device is able to see or connect to the network. When searching for the Wi-Fi network on any other phone, laptop, etc, it's just not even there, like it doesn't exist.
If anyone is familiar with this app, or knows a way to get it functioning, I'd greatly appreciate any info.

Look up WIFI Tether on google play, there will be one called "WiFi Tether for Root Users" made by "Müller, Lemons, Buxton"
I've been using it for a while no issues so far.

I've used this on my Optimus S Galaxy Nexus and Optimus G and they all work great. This is the best app for tethering. They even have older version to where a certain version works.

WiFi teether owns when you have 4g
yep just got wifi tether for root, barnacle didn't work, and this one i see actually supports WPA as opposed to being limited to WEP, which caused issues with my linux box connecting to it.
Hopefully this is fixed with WPA, we'll find out
WiFi Tether stopped working for me. It does what's described in the first post; runs fine, no errors, and says it's tethering. It worked for about a month and now nothing.

I took the advice and tried Wi-Fi tether from the market. Basically does exactly what barnacle did, with a slight change. Now, other devices will see and connect to the Wi-Fi network, but will still not get internet access. Almost like the data service was blocked.
