[Q] Connect to Ad-hoc networks (JB 4.1.2 - Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all,
since the search function is disabled and I couldn't find something browsing manually, I have to ask here: Is there a working way to make the Desire connect to Ad-hoc networks? I am running vijendrahs CM10 Rom and all I could find were deprecated versions of 2 years ago.
Thanks in advance.

[DEV] CyanogenMod-7.2.0-RC1-gio-UNOFFICIAL - USB-Tethering/WIFI problem

Hi there, i´ve tested this ROM with success and i really like this CM7.2 version but i have one problem with USB-Tethering.
I can´t find the option for USB-Tethering in settings
This really would stop me to use this ROM in future, so can anyone help me?
In Phiexz CM7.2 ROM that was no problem :/
(or can i use a special app that used the original samsung-kies drivers?)
Personally, I do not have CM but I think that you can try to install apke from market
Certainly not to mess up the phone, but if that works that's another matter

Htc running 4.1.2 can't use any wifi hotspot apps

I tried using barnicle and it gives me an error "wifi:could not set ad hoc mode of wlan0 operation not supported on transport endpoint" all other apps say its working but it's not seen on any wifi enabled device. Is it because jelly beam doesn't support such apps? Can I use the phones built in wifi hotspot if that is the case and will I be forced to add on the wifi hotspot plan? Thanks Happy New Year.
What phone? Barnicle doesn't sound familiar.

Try CM10. Albinoman's RC3 is outdated and has several bugs that have been fixed mainstream by CM or Evervolv.
I'm already running CM10

Ok, gotcha. I thought it was albinoman's because you just said jellybean 4.1.2. The actual ROM you are using is good to know. You only listed the Android version earlier in the post.
It sounds like Barnacle won't work.
No worries. Provisioning for tethering doesn't exist in CyanogenMod. SPG.apk is the provisioning app and also the tethering isn't linked in the device configuration so it won't charge you. My understanding with the provisioning is that it is never automatic. I think it takes you to their sign in page on ROMs without that removed which is only stock on the Inc.
I'm new at this but do you have a rom? I see "tiny4579" listed in my phone. I believe I'm currently using ponsAsinorem. Thanks for your help !

In short, you won't be billed for tethering on this ROM. Verizon won't know you're doing it as that hook doesn't exist in this ROM.
If tethering isnt linked to the device how does it still function unless im misinterpreting what "linked" means. Thanks !
And under about phone under cm version 10-20121120-pons-inc is cm10? And pons is the rom? Thanks so much !!

CM10 is the ROM and ROM version. CM10 is based off Android 4.1.2. Pons built the ROM.
And your other question, when you enable wifi hotspot on this device, other devices will see it as the default SSID of AndroidAP which can be changed if you want. By default it has a password so you need to change it or set it to open which can be a security risk.
Thanks for all your help !! I really appreciate it ! Happy new year
Oh btw to my other question of seeing tiny4579 in my phone ? You made a version of the rom? Thanks !

I'm keeping his build up to date yes.
Where in the phone are you looking when you say you're seeing my username in your phone? The about screen wouldn't show two ROMs.
In goomanager under browsing compatible roms along with aokp, invisiblek, miui, ponsAsinorem. That's where I go to change roms I believe.
Oh, yeah, that would have my build. It would be cm10-builddate-TINY-inc.zip.

[Q] Wifi Not connecting for 4.2.1 ROM's - Galaxy N7100

Hi All
I am having a wifi connectivity issue with all the 4.2.1 ROM's. Earlier I had posted this in the Noob friendly thread. I guess that was not the correct forum for this question. The below is the description from my earlier question. Appreciate any help. Sorry for the long post. I wanted to give as much information as possible. Surprisingly, I don't find any threads which adress this question for 4.2.1. Am i the only one having this problem?
I am using the Galaxy Note 2 international model. I am trying the CM 10.1 nightly ROM's and other ROM's like HyperdroidJBX V2.0. They are cool roms and I really like them, but the only problem I am facing is the Wifi connectivity issue. At any point of time, when I am turning on and selecting my home Wifi connection, it stays on 'Obtaining IP address' or some other message, but never gets connected. This is the same issue, I faced even in 4.1.2 versions, but I had a work around as follows. Now, I don't know , how to do that in 4.2.1 ROM's.
Open dial pad and dial *#0011* and then chose Wifi from Menu. Turn off the button which is currently 'on' and the Wifi connects .. This happens every time, I restart the phone. But once done , no issues in connecting or disconnecting.
Any help appreciated. I am new to this forum and please let me know, if any data needs to be provided from my end to help fix this issue.
PS: This issue, has stopped me from trying the 4.2.1 ROM's as it is eating up my 3G mobile data connection.
have this problem with all the 4.2.1 ROM's except the one from monx - cm-10.1-20130110-NIGHTLY-n7100-monx-01.

Keep calm and do the following:-
Download this zip file. And extract it to your etc/wifi folder.
http://db.tt/BWGleyxg
Since you need to overwrite a system folder, mount it as R/W from the default R/O using Root explorer or any other explorer(This is the important bit and there is no excuse for messing this part up)
Then copy and paste the conetnts of the "wifi" folder you earlier extracted to etc/wifi and choose "Overwrite files" option.
DONE.
If this doesn't work, then probably nothing will.
And to those of you wondering what is the zip file,it is actually a backup of the wifi folder of 4.1.1 which i have been overwriting into new ROM's wifi folder to make my wifi work. If you have any query, feel free to bug me.
GoodLuck.
Thanks for the quick response. Can you please ellaborate on the exact step you have mentioned to overwrite the system's wifi folder! I am new to the Linux world and would appreciate some help here.
I understand some files in the existing Wifi folder will get overwritten. But what happens to the others in the folder? Can I leave them there?

Your phone must be rooted for doing this.
1.Download the file on PC or Phone.
2.There should be a folder named wifi.
3.Download Root explorer or any other explorer that allows mounting system to R/W from R/o.
In root explorer, you just need to click the r/w to mount system as re wriatble.
4. Copy the CONTENTS of the wifi folder and paste it in system/etc/wifi <---paste here.
5.You will be asked if you want to overwrite the file. Click yes.
Reboot.
Enjoy.
Perfect...
Thank You So Much...
Wonderful suggestion . It worked like a charm...

Hello Again
I have started facing this issue again, when I am installing 4.2.2 ROMs now. The trick you had mentioned of copying the older version wifi files (from the dropbox location you mentioned) and pasting them in /etc/wifi is not helping now.
After pasting the files in wifi folder, and rebooting, when i turn on the Wifi, it stays in 'Turning On' state. It neither allows me to turn Wifi Off or on. Even a reboot is not helping.
Any further suggestions on how to fix this issue is appreciated?
Also, one question, am I the only one who is facing this issue? Why I don't hear from anyone else in the forums about this issue? This is like a permanent issue for me since 4.1.2 upgrade.
Appreciate your help.

Hi
Anyone, Any help? I have attached the screenshot to compare the files in the /etc/wifi folder between the version 4.1.1 and 4.2.2.
Hope this helps. I see a number of new files and some files which have changed over the release.
Earlier copying the old wifi files in to the /etc/wifi folder used to fix the problem. now it is not helping.
Appreciate any help.

Thanks for the reply. Check the suggestion in this thread of copying the wifi folder using a root explorer/efs explorer. It fixed the issue for some of the ROM's and till 4.2.1. But again it resurfaced with 4.2.2 ROM's.
I am also searching in some other forums and threads. Will try to inform, if I find something.
Did you try resetting the router? It helps for some.

I know this. This helps. But not in the future 4.2 samsung realeases. So this is just a ugly fix. I will stay at 4.1.2. Und wait for leakt samsung 4.2. Roms with a hopefully fixed wifi module.

I just read in some other forum that the issue is with AOSP and CM based ROMs. To try it out, I installed a AOKP based ROM - Resurrection Remix and the wifi worked fine. But for the record, another AOKP ROM - ROOTBOX had the same wifi issue.
So if anyone is really stuck with this Wifi issue and wants to try the Android 4.2.1/2, you can try the AOKP ROM's for a change.

Hi,
Have you found a fix for the wifi not connecting problem? Unfortunately for me, resetting the router doesn't help.
I'm thinking of exchanging my n7100, but I need to know which version to avoid that has this problem.

I'm surprised this is still a problem with the latest CM 10.1 nightlies (I've tried 2013-04-01).
Same problem here, since the 4,1.2 update. I had high hopes for the upcoming 4.2 update to adress it, but those hopes fall flat to the ground, reading this thread. All that's left to do then, is to return the phone for warranty service. Something I've avoided so far, since I really need my phone on a from day to day basis. I suspect that I won't get it back for 3-4 weeks. A really disturbing option. I'm lost now....
I have installed the new dmc3 firmware from samsung. Now everything is working!!!! Wifi works now on 4.1.2. No speed drops or anything.

Don't know what's wrong with this device
First time poster, same issue with WiFi on CM 10.1. I can't find a solution to this for the life of me. The phone is 3 days old, so by the sound of it, this is something common to newer N7100 hardware?
Does anyone have a working solution to this WiFi problem?
Someone have tried to start with old rom touchwizz and old radio?

I posted about this a few weeks ago, but the problem you describe seems to be rare enough that no one believes the WiFi not playing nice with CM exists.
So basically, I had to return the brand new N7100 and purchase a used one that worked with CM. Until enough people complain, I don't think this problem will be addressed (at least it wasn't in my case). Your best bet is to exchange for another one and hope it doesn't have the same issue.
Keep in mind not all newer N7100 are affected.
