[Q] Shared PC's Wifi not working with Note 8 - Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti

Hi guys,
Can someone help me? I have 4 tablets and only with Note 8, My shared PC's wifi doesnt work. I've created a Wifi hotspot in my PC (everyone can create too) and the same steps i did with other tablets, not work with Note 8. I dont know why...
Can someone help? Please... Why Note 8 is different?
Thanks in advance.
PS. if any operator delete my thread again, could you please say the reason mine was deleted? ty...

id guess it's bc the hotspot is adhoc and as far as I know, the note 8 doesn't support adhoc.

Is there a way to active it? I cant belive in 2013, a top tablet model doesnt have adhoc.
Ty in advance,

Ad-hoc by default is disabled in stock android, nothing to do with top tablet or not.Your other tablet manufacturers might have enabled it their devices.however ad-hoc networking has it's limitations as well as security implications for general users.
if you are in windows 7 or above you might be able to create a secire virtual miniport based hotspot/access point that your android can connect to.
or use third party ad hoc enabler apps on android or other computer apps to create wifi access point.

I am a chinese..
OK my english is so bad.. just a teenager.. I'm sorry
I can tell you if you wanna dial pppoe via wifi
your device must be rooted.
It is limited by android system itself.
nothing about software.,
I had this app before, and read many times about it but i dont understand
what it is for?
Tell me what this application is for. Dont c/p the explanation from market.
Whats benefit entering password from android?

For the ADSL.
some router haven't pppoe inside.
just like a invisible wire.
some wifi ask you to provide the username and password
computer can do it very easy because it has the pppoe dial-up
but your phone haven't
use this software you can do it just like a computer's dial.
special purpose.
Lets say my friend has a wife thats password protected.
He gives me the pass. In order to connect to his wifi should i use this app?

[DEV] importing wifi-direct to SGS I (DEVELOPERS ONLY)

hi
first of all this thread is only for developers.. and the files here are under development and not yet working
I search every where regarding wifi-direct
and i found 100% it is software issue, and the SGSI hardware is compatible to run this feature
then i started the journey on SGSII and I found all the files needed to run wifi direct
it is complicated a little bit to list all the files here
but i will when needed
i modify values (public,string,ids,layout)
layout
drawable
drawable-hdpi
androidmanifest
XML
and added smali files needed
then compile ,,,
when test on device the setting icon itself doesn't appear !
and i think it is an android-manifest issue !
so i decided after 3 weeks of hard working to share with developers to help in this issue so we may get the way to do it
the modded setting file is for JVR 2.3.4 ROM
and it is here
http://www.multiupload.com/VA5LELQF8P
so any help would be grait
juf..!
the good news that there are nothing important in framework.jar
Maybe you can work with zohawkish, he is doing a SGS2 rom port http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1032599
this is must be done be all developers together

I'm sorry I am not a developer but I'm wondering why there is so little apparent enthusiasm for this thread?
I've been using the SGS2 for a couple of months now and Wifi Direct just blows me away. I only know one other person with an SGS2 but I can send him megabytes in the blink of an eye.
Samsung dropped the ball by advertising that the SGS had bluetooth 3.0 capability but neglecting to mention that Android doesn't support bluetooth 3.
For wifi direct a bluetooth chip and an N capable wifi chip are required and if I'm not wrong and the Galaxy S has both of these.
Developers should be absolutely striving to unlock the potential of wifi direct in this device. I don't even have an i9000 anymore but the thoughts of being able to do fast file transfers with my buddies who do is my motivation for bumping this post.
It would be a very worthwhile and rewarding achievement, not just for i9000 users but for anyone with a wifi direct device because the proliferation of wifi direct is essential in making it the exciting giant step forward it could and should be.
Thank you juffo for all your hard work in this area.

can u share bin files after modding ?
You should look here, wifi direct seems to be perfectly working on Galaxy S : http://forum.frandroid.com/topic/70131-tuto-le-wi-fi-direct-cest-possible/
EDIT : I forgot to mention, it's in french ^^
He is using an app though (Wifi Cast Lite) - maybe thats all thats needed?

this wont work between wifi cast & wifi direct
it will work only between devices that holds the same app
OH MY GOD,
i never use this line but i think wifi direct on the sgs would be a good time to use it ^^
this would be so awesome and it should definatly be investigated by all developers here ^^
i'm not a developer either but i want to bump this post because this should not be forgotten
all my thanks to the developers already trying to get this working
here is a link for "wifi cast lite" which ,however, emulates wifi direct or something like that ^^
tut for testing <bt and wlan has to be enabled> :
install wifi cast on two devices which are ready for wifi direct but dont open
then activate wifi ap on one of this devices
open wifi cast on this device and configure your ap
open wifi cast on the other device and login to the ap of the first device
now you can transfer big files -100mb+- in just some minutes ^^
this app was shown on ces 2011 and was developed by lg if i understood everything correctly
i also read that the sgs is the first wifi direct certified smartphone ^^
http://www.samsunggalaxysforum.com/...irst-ever-smartphone-to-do-wi-fi-direct/?wap2
edit: definatly certified
http://certifications.wi-fi.org/pdf_certificate.php?cid=WFA8921
maybe this app helps to understand how it is done and how to get this implemented into a rom
I think there is a dedicated app for Wifi Direct on SGS II. Have you tried using that?
EDIT: I think Kernel Changes are required to get this to work.
I will try wifi cast lite later today and then i will report ^^
had no luck today because there wasn't the possibility to test it.
excuse this bump but i don't want to let this thread die ...
tested wifi cast today and wooooow, its awesome bluetooth with the speed of wlan ^^ tested between gt-i9000 and gt-i9100

[Q] Use Note 2 for editing on mac

Hey all,
I do a little photoshop editing on my macbook, and I'd love to be able to use my Note 2 as a tool to help edit photos. I have tried Splashtop a little, but I was really after something a little better. I'd really like to be able to kind of use my phone as a mouse sort of, but actually use the pen instead.
Is this possible?
thanks
dean
you are planning to use note 2 as a touch input right?
maybe you should google it.

Well it is a wacom digitizer, sounds great!
Maybe run vnc server on the mac and a vnc client on your phone? Not sure how well that would work resolution wise. I haven't tried using TeamServer for a tablet purpose, but that may also be an option.
I'd like to hear what you find works best.

I would love to help you, but help yourself first: ask a better question

[Q] MAC Address Spoof

Does anyone know how to spoof MAC address of S4 Mini? Tried ghost address app, but cannot connect to any wifi.
I was thinking of using the terminal app (rick of bricking) but unsure of coding to do so
Also is there a way to do this permanently or is it always temp?
Any help or guidance would be great, I have searched the forums but help or advice only comes up for different models not the S4 Mini.
Cheers
Anyone?
Tried it via the terminal app and also MAC Spoofer but still unable to change?

A lot of stuff in unrelated threads is sometimes applicable to anything Android. This might be of use, the files mentioned do exists on the S4 mini.There is another link in that post which appears it might be useful too as well as the other things in the thread it is posted in

Sideloading App on Galaxy watch running off an iphone

Hi, so I am handcuffed by my work to use an iphone. I couldn't stand the apple watch, so finally upgraded to to the Galaxy watch. I love this watch. Disappointed at the limited apps available, which i understand fully. I am curious if there is a way to sideload these apps? Particularly the myroundpro watch app.
Really appreciate any feedback.
Regards,

I don't understand the problem here. Is it that your iphone is locked down and cannot access the Apple app store?
sdb connect ip : port then youre connected to watch but buletooth off and on same wifi then you can do more

I'm not sure sideloading is the answer. I know that's the question that was asked but the application he mentioned is on the galaxy wearable store and has an iOS companion app on the iOS app store. That's why I asked my questions above. What exactly is he trying to resolve by sideloading? It doesn't make sense.
I didn't go in depth but once you connect you have to root then a little easier tinzen has dev exe to Port apps on dev website I've been trying to do with Spotify lite made for gear not Samsung 2nd B's market we get non-samsung owners
i wasn't trying to be a [email protected]@@, but ive ported and signed different apps on my watch this thread will help multiple links to tinzen dev and it works look at post #53 we need all the help we can on watch https://forum.xda-developers.com/sm.../questions-sideloading-apps-tweaking-t3917082 hope this helps if not ill try to help if i can
