I did a search here and didn't seem to find any threads on it. My phone can only broadcast an ad-hoc network for tethering, and while I'm able to use bluetooth to tether for browsing, most google apps don't work with it. Does anyone know how to get the Nexus 7 to find and connect to ad-hoc networks?
You probably need to replace wpa_supplicant with one that has been compiled to recognize ad-hoc.

Does anyone know if this would work? I've attempted to do some research on the topic but I'm not knowledgable enough to know what exactly the code in this patch does, and for that reason am not too interested in putting code from unknown sources on my own device.

Theoretically it should work, but that is a source code patch, so you need a source tree to recompile wpa_supplicant. Given what you described, you probably want someone to compile and provide you just the binary.

Hi everyone!
Just wanted to ask if anyone could upload their tun.ko for the said kernel. I'm trying OpenVPN and it is one of the requirement for the program to run.
Thanks a lot in advance!

You can't build a loadable kernel module without recompiling the kernel, hence theoretically you must also change the kernel....
I think that the stock kernel has this model built inside the kernel, so you should be able to just run OpenVPN and it should work, no need to load anything.
If this still does not work for you, look at the FlyKernel from my signature, it should solve the problem for you (if you try it and there are problems let me know on it's thread).
Thanks for the reply! I cant find tun.ko anywhere so I guess it is missing from the official rom. Im getting tired of the stock rom anyway so maybe its time to load up some custom prepared eclair or froyo.;-) i'll try cronos droid as im curious of what divx library is for. Maybe it can paly divx natively? Anyway, thanks again!

I'll try to clarify what I tried to say above: To the best of my knowledge there is no tun.ko in the official ROM. This is the way it should be. And yet openVPN will still work for you. Did you try to use OpenVPN and have some problem with it?
hey, thanks for taking time helping me out.
I was able to install openvpn. I can enable openvpn too, however, may problem is I can't use my openvpn configuration. For some reason, I can't make my openvpn configuration enabled. No error whatsoever. When I click the check mark for the configuration, it just blinks. Here's my hunch, In the tun module settings, there is this option: "path to tun module" which I dont know where to point to since the stock kernel does not have tun.ko. I downloaded a couple of tun.ko that I saw here and a couple of others I found using google. But since these are all not for the kernel that I have, it all didn't work. what do you think should I do?

Ok, I was sure for some reason that openVPN should work well with the stock kernel (personally I don't use VPN so can't really check it myself).
I think your best bet now is to try a different kernel. You can try my kernel from my signature (flykernel) which should work on almost any ROM. Or if you where planning to checkout different ROMs, go for it and hopefully it will work for there.
just finished reading your kernel details and it sounds interesting! I'll give it a try now.
and yea, thanks for the help and for your kernel.
I'm trying to connect my phone up to my works Cisco VPN.
I've read online that I need a compiled version of tun.ko kernel module in order for it to work. I've checked in /system/lib/modules/ and can't see it in there.
There are instructions online for compiling it which I wouldn't mind doing but I'm guessing this will have to wait until HTC release the kernel sources for the One X(?)
Can I use the module from another phone running the same kernel version?
EDIT: Sorry just done some more reading and found out tun.ko is baked into ICS so this can't be the problem I'm having
Did you manage to get this working? I am trying to connect to a L2TP/IPsec PSK VPN and I keep getting a timeout.
This has been working for the past 2 years on my gingerbread Desire HD.
I think it's to do with this issue:
http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=23124
but if anyone knows of a fix that would be great?
i need this tooo ,, but without root please >>>
anybody has any sugestion on how to get this fix, i am trying to install the wifi calling app on the cm nightly.
I am trying to figure this out first but I don’t know where to start.
04-17 11:25:52.820 E/dalvikvm(6079): dlopen("/system/lib/libkineto.so") failed: Cannot load library: soinfo_relocate(linker.cpp:1013): cannot locate symbol "_ZN7android11AudioRecordC1EijijijPFviPvS1_ES1 _ii" referenced by "libkineto.so"...
appreciate any help.

You are better off adding to this thread, wifi calling is a t-mo only thing and built into framework...think some kernel modifications would be needed, not just a matter of installing apk and libs, otherwise all aosp roms would have it already...

i see... thanks for the replay i will keep trying to get it to work who knows maybe i get lucky
Good luck, lots of people pulling for you
I want adhoc to work because I have a toughbook in my company truck that's connected on a perm data line and I want to use adhoc like I do with my iphone. Which ROM supports adhoc ? I would be nice if it also had JB4.2

I'm not sure which ROM has it but did find something that might help you: http://shaer.me/blog/2012/08/how-to-enable-ad-hoc-connection-on-your-android/
I tried enabling adhoc through various methods as you mentioned above but was unsuccessful.
Hi to all friends.
I just bought an Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 3g sm-311 and I have a request for help.
I just rooted it and it works fine.
In my job they do not use wifi and I am in the need to use internet through my tab 3.
I already own a usb Lan card with asix chipset (AX88772A) that works fine with any pc and mac I ever used. Many people have connect it with OTG cable. It detects it but no drivers re installed in the tablet.
They provide drivers For Android 1.x/2.x/3.x/4.x, Linux kernel 2.6.14 and later that needs to be compiled to kernel.
I do not have the knowledge to do that. Can someone help me out on that and explain how I will put back the kernel ?
I would like to thank everyone in advance .
Best Regards
Anyone ?
Umm.... I think everyone with the 7 inch model of the Tab 3 is having that issue..... Some of us think that it will come through an uupdate or somthing.... Otherwise iv tried to push the persmissions using a xml file which says its detected and thats all....Still dosnt work...:crying:
You can download PPP Widget from the Play Store. Samsung devices lack the Option driver in the stock kernel, so you might need to get that separately. They don't need to be compiled into the kernel. You can have them as loadable modules. The forums on draisberghof.de may provide a link.
The ability to load kernel modules has been removed from the stock Android kernel from Android 4.3 onwards, which sucks, but we can always use a recompiled kernel.
No lack..... do you think that I should contact samsung ?

What have you tried? Did you get the drivers? Samsung will be unable to help except point you at their kernel source, if they do respond.
Please check this thread on the usb_modeswitch forum and request Josh for drivers for the specific kernel for the Tab.

Its too bad that I can nor find a solution. I will be forced to sale the unit and buy a win8.1 tablet like toshiba encore.
