how to join ad-hoc network on nexus 7 - Nexus 7 Themes and Apps

I want to tether from my android phone using this: http://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether/downloads/list
nexus 7 will not detect the ad-hoc network. any work arounds?

Not a Nexus 7 issue. Its your app settings
Set your device model to "Smdung Galaxy Indulge" in the tether app
Then change the next option from "Auto" to "Softtap (master) " or something like that. I don't remember. But it worked for me.

I'm afraid the issue is on the Nexus 7 side, as discussed here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1787680

spoof wifi download

With some apps, like asphalt 6,you have to download a large package. The only problem with this is that it only allows it via wifi...even if you have 4g. My home wifi is terrible, under 5 mbps, and I have a lte nexus and we know how the speeds are on there .
Any way to spoof it to allowing me to dl using my lte data?

With game loft games you used to be able to just turn wifi on and even if it wasn't connected it would download over cellular data.. try it it might still work

Yes the iPhone had a spoof like this back when I had it. Some Apps won't let you download things over data which sucks. Amazon Appstore is one of them.

I guess it depends on the game because I downloaded a whole half a gig of gt+ HD over my mobile network without Wi-Fi being active. It asked a few times if I'm sure but it did work (fully unlimited mobile internet ftw). I also downloaded gta3 over mobile with no issues.

Ad hoc support for galaxy nexus

I just want to connect my laptop internet connection on my nexus so I created an ad hoc network on the laptop now I am scanning for network on nexus I doesn't discover the network.
I know that we need a modified WPA suppliant file so where can I find it for the galaxy nexus. I am on jellybean ROM 4.1 ...

Did you ever find a solution for this?
I already tried several wpa_suppliant files and none of them worked.. One was for the GNex ICS (didnt work on JB), and another one i tried was for the Galaxy Note.

Best Tether app (non root)

Hello i have a sprint galaxy s III and i was wondering if anyone has had success tethering a sprint phone to the nexus 7? My phone is not rooted, i would like to keep it that way if at all possible. I use FoxFi and PDA Net and it does connect to my Nexus 7, but for internet only. Google play will not update apps, facebook will not work, Netflix won't work, ect. I tried open garden, FoxFi (by itself), PDA Net (by itself) and nothing else connects. What is everyone else using??? Thanks in advanced!
Well I`m using foxfi and it works very well for me. I`m living in uk.

I tried out foxfi today for the first time. It seems pretty good, but I would like to here others suggestions as well.

That doesn't really answer the OP's post though. FoxFi doesn't look like a real internet connection to all apps though. Is there another app that does any better?

If I understand this right your wanting to connect your N7 to the internet via your G3, if so cannot you just use the mobile access point on the phone, i have the galaxy s and my sister has the S2, both have this options in the settings and once set up and turned on acts just like a wireless router, select it and enter the password on your N7 and your away.. works well on mine

I've never tried it, but how about PDAnet?
Foxfi Wifi Hotspot no longer works on my nonrooted Droid Bionic. I can only tether via blueetooth, which doesn't allow all of my apps to work correctly. Does anyone know of a Foxfi alternative?
My Foxfi works fine on droid x to my nexus 7. I don't know what you're talking about not a real connection....
Check it out though, foxfi is definitely awesome.

[Q] connect wifi tether in infrastructure mode vs ad-hoc. Can it be done (yet)?

After taking a trip to the darkside for a year or so (IFail), I decided to rejoin the force by purchasing the Optimus G, mainly for wifi-tethering and more control over my actual phone. I can connect my phone just fine to my Mac (the Optimus appears under devices in airport), but cannot get my Kindle, nor my X-Box to connect to the wifi. Is this an ad-hoc vs. infrastructure connection issue?
Can anybody help with this issue?

Not sure I can help with your ways, but Wireless Tether, from the Playstore, works good for me. You have to have root. Settings are; ics/jb generic, wlan0.

Most wireless tether apps use ad-hoc, which only works for PCs and PSPs it seems like. The built in version you pay for works on some phones like my old evo, but we hack to unlock that first to not pay. I will check it out when I get the chance and see if I can do the same thing.

I'm having trouble connecting to my 5ghz network

I have not been able to successfully connect to my 5ghz network on either my S3 or Nexus 7. I have pc that connects to it no problem. So does my ipad.
Anyone know of a fix for this? Perhaps an app I can use?
