adhoc?
you problably mean wifi tethering?
use an alternative 3rd party app for that available in google play
no, it's not the wifi tethering. i think it's the opposite. cos i'm using may laptop to create a wifi connection using a program called Connectify. it provides adhoc wifi connection. but the stock ROM can't connect to that, also the CM9.
I've searched on the internet and found that it's about the "wpa_supplicant" file in the system/bin folder. can anyone help? i wanna know how to connect to an adhoc wifi connection.

replace the file with it in system/bin
and then try to connect it will work for sure

make sure you checked the post of the wpa_supplicant, is for stock gingerbread, or for CM9. Mine replaced with the stock, so the wifi can't be enabled, reflash to resolve.

I don't know if the latest root method for OTA 1.47.651.1 (---==={ROOT GUIDE}===--- | 1.47.651.1 ROOT method | has been tested for Wireless Tethering. I would imagine that it doesn't make a difference... root is root, and there isn't much of anything changing on the phone AFAIK...
I've searched the forums and can't seem to find an answer.... probably because this is so new...
When WiFi is off I try wireless tethering and get an error message: Unable to start tethering, please try again. I turn on WiFi and start wireless tethering I get the same error message and WiFi turns off. I've tried this with all of the various connection types: Charge Only, HTC Sync, Disk Drive, and Internet sharing. When I try to select internet sharing, I get the following message: "Error Code 67. Registrationg failure. Your PCS Vision username and/or password may be incorrect. Please try again."
I found This How-To-Guide, which references Toast's method...but I'm curious if there's a difference between that method and the one listed above for the latest OTA.
Thanks.
[EDIT]P.S. I can confirm that WiFi does work. I can connect to local WiFi networks when they are available.

Hi.. looks like you are trying to use the buid in stock (Sprint Hotspot) tethering app.. if this is the case it will not work.. you need to root your phone and once you load a rooted ROM (ex. Fresh 0.5.3 or any other one) use the wifi tether app already included in those ROMs.. sometimes you need to reinstall the wifi app . in that case uninstall the wifi tether app and go to this address on your phone and download the latest app for the Evo. http://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether/
hope this helps...
P.S. I attached the app from the address above to the post.. good luck
Ignore jade. He is shilling for fresh. Download the "Wireless Tether" app from the market. That will work.

I figured as much. I am not using the Sprint app. I've tried the first app listed in the android market, as well as one straight from Google that's 2.0.2. It's supposed to work for the Evo... I have the same problem with both apps.
Which connection type do I need to select on my phone?

jejeje.. I did mention any other ROM as well ....
Guess the op can ignore me if he likes but what's the point of rooting if you are not going to check out various other ROMs..
if all the OP is needing is wireless teather then he should have just gone the unrevoked route.

Not going to ignore you.... not completely. I just want tethering to work so I can test it and see if it's going to work for me. Then i'll mess with other ROMs. The stock Sprint one has too much crap in it... I hate nascar...
Pezu23
I do not know if this matters but are you using a rooted ROM ? I ask because the first time I ran thw wifi tether app it ask for super user access.. maybe you need a rooted ROM flashed on the phone before this app can work.. I have no reference point since I used the toast method to root my phone..
If you can follow toast method of rooting and unlocking the NAND.. you will still have a sprint base (rooted) ROM but this time you can delete the "Nascar app" and anything else you want..
The one in market is not the best one 2.05 pre 2 I think is the best it does infrastructure mode allowing almost any device to connect

If you tried everything, i dont see why you would not take 5 more minutes to load a new rom with wifi already in it.
I had the market version of tether installed and it works fine, but I downloaded the attached APK file (in my evo) and when I tried to open it says:

I have the same problem. I am on stock rooted with rooted OTA's...
I did get it working with Fresh, but I was having other problems with Fresh 0.5.3 like the camera would sporadically go out. I guess I may have to reload fresh (which I really liked, by the way)
I rooted using the link in your first post then installed the newest DC rom and now the newest baked rom. Neither allows me to wifi tether (though no errors) as I dont see a network being created. Any ideas? Did I root wrong or screw up my radios?
Thanks!
cool.. ill try that..
Maybe I'm confused...
When I run adb shell I can gain root access. However, it appears as though HTC Sense (or any other launcher) is not running as root..or at least the programs launched within Sense (i.e. astro file manager, wireless tether) are NOT running as root. I can only create dirs in /sdcard with Astro File Manager...Guess I gotta figure out how to wipe and restart.
Not to complicate your current line of thought, but I don't think normal file managers can create new files in system. only programs that request su will pop up in the su app. But the wireless tether should.
I am running basically stock with the tether and it works. But there is something to be said about trying to start over
Did you guys also loose 4g signal..And i hardly have any 3g bars to tether with...Before rooting after OTA everything worked perfect....Is 3g and 4g giving yall issues?
hi guys
i'm having issues with my hotspot, everytime i try to connect it it will disconect.
I mean i enable it and when i connect with my laptop it will disable automatically.
Any sugestions??

Did you try deleting or freezing the hotspot manager file?

If you have any battery managers running while it is on they will turn off your data connection if the battery gets low. Make sure your apn settings are correct for your network. Use Titanium Backup to freeze hotspot manager and/or tethering manager.

Ok, so my new Kindle Fire cannot see ad-hoc networks. So, using Wireless Tether I get no signal on the Fire from the E4GT.
I'm reading that I need a tether app that supports infrastructure mode or to change the device profile in Wireless Tether to an LG Optimus. I don't see the option for this.
Anyone?

Go here and download the latest beta version of the WiFi Tether apk and install it. This is the version you need to be able to switch the profile of WiFi Tether to the LG Optimus.

Ok, done and installed, however I'm getting errors each time I start the tethering...
I managed to start it once without errors, but neither a black berry nor the Kindle could see it.
I uninstalled my old Wireless Tether app.
This may be a dumb question, but does the beta app need special permissions? Or does it need to be placed somewhere specifically on the sd card?
I don't think so.
I do believe you have to make sure that the SSID you create is all-lowercase and contains no special characters, and also that "Routing Fix" is enabled in the settings along with everything else.
I don't really know though, so I'm sorry I can't be more helpful.
You are rooted correct? Do you have a custom rom installed?

You may need the native Hotspot hack. If I use the Wifi Tether apk, my Nexus doesn't see it but the Hotspot hack works perfect
Sent from my Nexus S 4G using xda premium
Thanks for the tips everyone. I had to install busybox and use the Ad-hoc Switcher app - ZTO or something - and it was finally able to work!
So maw230,
What exactly did you do?
I attempted to do the same as your last post described, however ZT-180 Adhoc Switcher by HAL9000 (the program I believe you are referencing) is unable to locate the required files in their expected locations.
I already installed BusyBox (By Stericson) and had it install busybox 1.19.3 and my E4GT was rooted using ODIN.
I am going to continue searching, perhaps I can get the HotSpot Hack up and running and report back here. In the meantime, if you could verify what apps exactly allowed you to pull this off- myself and many others would be much obliged!
Thanks
I had no issues with the hotspot hack compared to countless headaches with the other tether apps.

Do you think you can assist me.
I've been trying to do the hotspot hack. I've rooted successfully using qbking77 video.
Next I downloaded the ek02 hotspot odexed version to root of my sd card. Using the stock recovery console, I choose to install from sd card. When I select the hotspot hack file, it just display the green android with a triangle and exclamation point and does nothing else. Then I thought maybe I have to unzip it first, but that wasn't it since it didn't see any files at all. Would like to remain stock as much as possible.
I have the latest firmware from sprint by the way if that makes any difference, ek02.

All you need to do is install a ROM that has the Hotspot hack. IMO PhantomHacker's Blazer ROM is one of the best out there and the hotspot hack comes pre-installed, so all you need to do is use the Sprint Hotspot app once the ROM is installed.
I spent way too much time trying tether apps and using the Adhoc switcher when all I need to do was open the Sprint Hotspot app!
Good luck.
Does anyone know how to get Swype working without the "Screen resolution not supported" error popping up on ICS?
Also, on CM7, I could tether using the program wireless tether but now it doesn't even show up under available networks. Any workarounds or good substitutions?
Thanks in advance
I posted about this a day or two ago. . .
What are you using as your wifi source?
I think it's an issue with ad hoc networks. The KF doesn't seem to be able to see them currently.
Its just my droid charge using the app "Wireless Tether".
Just curious if there was a workaround for CM9. It worked great when I was using CM7.
Sorry I didn't see your thread. I did some searching and "tethering" pulls up a million different threads, some about bluetooth, others about which apps to use, etc. Seemed like a crap shoot.
to get swype working you have to sideload the apk.
1.) download this apk: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/31821539/com.swype.android.inputmethod.apk
2.) copy to: /system/app (using something like root explorer)
3.) install the apk
4.) enjoy

There's a new version of wifi tether out, beta 3.1, that is showing up and allowing access for me.
Just Google wifi tether apk and it'll be the first up.
Hey , the dropbox link says that the file isn't there anymore. Did you have to remove it?
I'm using wifi tether as I write now on my droid x to connect my kindle works just fine for me I'm on the new kernel and I haven't done anything fancy so I can't say why the same wouldn't apply for you.

Hi guys I really need some help here. Last night I set out to simply find a way to tether wifi from my GS3 for free. From my understanding that required me to root + download tether app with root admin rights. Apparently it appears to be more in depth than that unless I’m missing something simple. I’ll just start by giving you my specs and tell you what I’ve done so far. Sorry for the long post.
Sprint
Galaxy S3
SPH-L710
JellyBean 4.3
Hardware L710.14
Stock kernel and rom
Followed the steps in this link to root it. It pretty much walks me through using Odin to root the phone. Looks like it also installs SuperSU for superuser access. I like the fact that it’s not too invasive, which is great because I simply want wifi tethering and am not looking for a custom kernel or rom. http://honai-android.blogspot.com/20...-sph-l710.html
Supersu
When I start the phone it says “Unfortunately SuperSU has stopped”
Downloaded the apk, ran it, launched ok, asked me to disable knox and said yes, rebooted phone, got same msg that supersu stopped, runs fine after install apk but fails after every reboot. Maybe knox is screwing with it?
No supersu update on the play store
Regardless I installed root checker and says the device has root access…
I downloaded a bunch of tethering apps I thought had root access but none actually enabled tethering.
Foxfi
When I use CDMA only (used this for troubleshooting purposes) Launch Foxfi, activate wifi hotspot, “unable to connect to data network, turning off hotspot. Your plan may not have hotspot service”’
When I use LTE/CDMA the popup message is you are not subscribed to the Hotspot service. Do you want to see subscription options?”
When I cancel out of that popup it says FoxFI hotspot ready and has the wifi icon on the notification bar but can’t find the wifi network on devices
Also it never requests superuser
1 click wifi tethering free
Launch, click enable, the notification bar says hotspot connected but then I get the same error “unable to connect to data network, turning off hotspot. Your plan may not have hotspot service”, still can’t see the network on other devices
When I use LTE/CDMA the popup message is you are not subscribed to the Hotspot service. Do you want to see subscription options?”
Also it never requests superuser
Wifi Tether TrevE Mod v3.3
Launch, opens fine, asks for superuser access, click button to enable tethering, get an error in the app that says “tethering started with errors! Please check ‘show log’”
Clicking show log gives me an error of “Unable to open log file. File does not exist.”
It still shows a message “Tethering is currently running…” under the “ongoing apps” section but still can’t find wifi network on other devices
Jtether
Launch, “says turning Wifi AP on” requests superuser access, eventually gets to the same message that says “unable to connect to data network, turning off hotspot. Your plan may not have hotspot service”
When I use LTE/CDMA the popup message is you are not subscribed to the Hotspot service. Do you want to see subscription options?”
Oddly when I launch Jtether with FoxFI on I can see the FoxFI network for literally 1 second, but not long enough to connect. This only happens when I use CDMA only. When I use LTE/CDMA it never shows up at all.
.
I’ve uncovered a lot of issues but I don’t know where to start troubleshooting. Do I start with SuperSU errors or can they be omitted? Do I start with FoxFI error troubleshooting? Maybe start with finding out why TrevE’s tether mod has errors but log file can’t be found? Maybe the root method I used wasn’t ‘deep’ enough? If so what method should I use? I thought this would be way easier but hours and hours later, here I am with no wifi tethering. I hope you guys can help.
Thnx in advance!

Thanks for the quick reply! What exactly is this file? Is it a new kernel? Or does it simply edit the configurations relating to tethering? Also can I go back to 100% stock after flashing it?
Also will this prevent me from being able to update the OS via Samsung push updates?

It is not new firmware. It's just a modified services.jar file. Since it's a hack, you will not be 100% stock after installing it. (You can get back to it by restoring the stock files (.jar and .odex files).
