Wifi-Direct paired but I can't do file sharing - G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Wifi Direct file sharing is NOT possible on the V500?.
After the both android devices wi-fi direct is enabled, configured and connected each other, a file transfer is supposed to be done share/ via wi-fi.
In the V500, when I select a file and wanted to share, it does not appear "via Wifi" option under share despite several tries with several file managers / explorers....
And if I send a file through another device to the V5000 via "wifi direct" after some seconds the transfer gives me an error "File sharing not enabled".
Why ? Can anyone manage?

I am not sure if this is helpful to your specific question, but I was able to transfer files TO my G Pad from my G2 using Superbeam, and got wi-fi direct speeds (50ish Mbps). I have not yet tried to transfer files from the G Pad to another device by wi-fi direct, but it did work for me not using Bluetooth or NFC or over an established wifi network via router. I would try Superbeam which seems to have consistent success in transferring files, much better than most file explorers.
Cheers.

I've tried Superbeam, and the only option it shows is "via bluetooth", not wi-fi.

what's wifi adhoc for sir? is this for file sharing via wifi?
ad hoc?
if you have a laptop or a PC with wifi and already connected to internet, you can make an adhoc connection to share your internet connection with others. in normal situation we can't detect adhoc connection with our device. with this simple mod we can detect and connect to any unsecured adhoc connection.

I use connectify to share internet pc with wifi to my device..
Are this same purpose with different method???
yup...it has same purpose but different method.

Hi, i tried following this guide but still no luck, can you please help me with my wifi problem, I am having a "wifi error" when I start my wifi, I am on a chobits 2.0 ROM with Merruk Kernel...

I already tried this but didn't work
pand gave some error "Failed to open control socket: Address family not supported.........."
then I thought this error may be due to lack of bluetooth module.so I compiled "bluetooth.ko" and loaded.
then the error disappeared but the thing didn't worked..
I think my bluetooth device is not detected by the module because '/sys/class/bluetooth' directory was empty
So still now i am seeking for a solution....

Well it actually is not impossible. I already had it working.
But your phone shouldn't have any issues with BLUETOOTH PAN profile. If having any issues maybe don't expect this to work. And it need not have mobile internet for both phone or PC. Its just phone-to-pc direct connection, no need for internet access point. Lets think there is no mobile internet enabled for the below HOW-to.
Ok here u go. Pair your phone and PC. Initiate BT PAN connection from PC to phone (right click on bluetooth device and select connect-via-access-point). This creates a local connection. Now u need to know local IP address on phone side. Install terminal emulator application and issue the command "netcfg" which lists all connections active. Note the IP address of the connection bnep0 (say ww.xx.yy.zz)
Now open your PC Command prompt and type the command
adb connect ww.xx.yy.zz:5555
it says connected. Enjoy.
Same goes for wireless connection through LOCAL WIFI (WLAN) without internet access point.
Lets think mobile internet is off.
Turn on the portable Wifi Hotspot on the android device and make ur PC to connect to that hotspot. Note down the local ip address of the connection. Then open pc command prompt and type same command as above
adb connect ww.xx.yy.zz:5555
connected . enjoy.
IMPORTANT: First of all u need to enable ADB OVER NETWORK option in phone. This option is present in latest roms like cm7.2 or cm9 or ics roms. If this option is not available u need to find terminal alternatives for this.
Noob here.
Is there any detail guide to do this ???

[Q] I9195 - Unable to connect to WIFI network (Authentication error occurred);

So, here it goes.
My goal is to connect to a network using certain MAC address. Wanted network is marked with "open" and I know that it allows access only to certain devices (according to MAC) on which the administrator have gave a permission to. Once your MAC passes the verification, device gets connected to the network and then I'm asked to enter username and password through WEB browser (well known for me, because it is a procedure that I do on my other device, as well as all my colleagues do).
For example, I was allowed to provide one personal MAC address to administrator to connect to this network. I would like to set the MAC address of my other personal device and set it on my I9195 so that I can access the same network.
So, what have I done so far: I9195 is rooted, it has Android 4.2.2 on it and Busybox installed. I have changed MAC on it using following apps: MacChanger (blue WIFI logo), MAC Address Ghost (green ghost logo), using Android Terminal Emulator commands and via MAC Spoofer (black circle with green text logo). What can I conclude: As soon as superuser has granted the access to these apps, all of them manage to change the MAC. I've done the verification using Terminal Emulator. I also have to add that the MAC remains original if viewed from WIFI advanced menu BUT this shouldn't be an issue because:
1.) Colleague of mine is using his S4 (rooted etc.), while using MAC Address Ghost that does not change the original address (viewed from WIFI advanced menu) but he manages to make a spoof (verified from the Android Terminal Emulator, as all of this apps actually do) and he manages to connect without any problems in the same way as I connect with another device that I have!
2.) I had time to make a small test at home which put a light on the idea that the problem should be focused on the Samsung (and not on the router, especially because I am unable to modify anything on the router on this facility, not even restarting it). My home network works in a similar way as the network that we are discussing about. My S4 Mini has been included in it with his original MAC and it connects to the network without any problems. My other device is also included to the network using its MAC (the one that I am using for spoofing). My other device is turned OFF, router has been reset and I am normally accessing the network with S4 Mini. Then I run the MAC Address Ghost to spoof the MAC on my S4 Mini. In that moment, I have lost the connection that I had which means that the MAC spoofer actually did something. I tried to reconnect to the network but then I am asked to enter the password for my network. I have checked and re-checked it many times, tried to forget the network and doing it all over again but it does not accept the CORRECT password. Changing my MAC back to the original one connects S4 Mini back to the network, while accepting the password immediately.
Problem is represented in a way that it either says “saved” and does not connect to the network or every few times displays a message “Authentication error occurred”.
I have tried I would say every possibility that I’ve seen over the internet. That includes:
1.) Installing WiFi Connection Manager (it provided some info regarding the network that I wish to connect to: IEEE 802.11g standard, 54 Mb link and CH:11). I’ve used its function to fix the WIFI (advanced fix (root required)) but it didn’t help.
2.) All sorts of staying close to the rooter, while enabling and disabling the Power save mode (accessed via *#0011# command) or while having GSM signal.
3.) Browsing through system, data etc. folders to try to find the file that contains the MAC address information (like it did on older android versions in the nvram file). I’ve been unable to find this file or any sort of file that displays my MAC for the purpose to modify it.
I have a plan to upgrade Android to version 4.4.2 later today and make a test.
Please, feel free to suggest anything else! If I do not succeed, I will have to replace my S4 Mini with something else.
Kind regards,
QUICK REPLY: After installing CyanoGEN MOD 4.4.2, the problem remains!
I think there could be a shorter solution! On Sony Xperia Acro S with 4.1.2 Android it was just a matter of changing the MAC address within the file data/etc/wifi/fw! One minute modification...
So, please, if somebody knows the path to the file that contains MAC on CyanoGEN MOD 4.4.2 or on Android 4.2.2, PLEASE HELP!
Kind regards!

[Q] [ResurrectionRemixKK] Unable to connect to (some) WiFi Networks

Hello,
I am running Resurrection Remix v5.0.5-20140309 on my Note 2, upgraded from v5.0.2-20140212.
And since then, it doesn't connect to some WiFi networks like my home WiFi. When I activate WiFi, no automatic connection and when trigerring a manual connection from the WiFi menu, it directly to disabled state and doesn't even try to connect (it seems).
Hoewever, it connects normally to my work WiFi.
Note that my home wifi runs on 2,4GHz, my work wifi on both 2,4 and 5GHz.
Any thoughts ?
Thanks.

Go to the /data/misc/wifi/ way with a root file manager and open this text file name as wpa_supplicant.conf . Find your home wifi. Look the text "autojoin=" is 0 or 1. If it 0, change to 1.
Try it, maybe work.

No mention of autojoin in my wpa_applicant.conf file.
However, I don't know how, it happens that when I was editing the file, my device shows the WiFi icon on the header. But it disappeared right after and back to the same situation.

Actually it recreates the file from itself without the need of rebooting the phone. And the new file has all my previous known WiFi networks connection details.
But it still doesn't fix anything.

[Q] WiFi Disk Systec PX-4709 software problems

Hello Guys.
I bought a WiFi Disk-Case Systec PX-4709 or Powson PX-4709. Because its very small.
For this disk exists a app named "AirStor" (Power7 Technology).
A test is in androidpit. this device is shown in the app, but i cannot move anything or create folders on the device.
The software is very too basic. Oter software like "WiDisk" and so on is not working too.
So i tried with "Total Commander" and FTP or LAN plugin. But with LAN (port 80) and FTP (port 21) i get no access.
A try with "ES Datei Explorer" and the LAN, WEB and FTP options but the device will not be found.
The procedure to have access to the drive is:
- Connect to accesspoint / Server of the drive over WiFi-Network
- Start the app AirStor: the device is shown now as empty
- It is possible to change the drive parameter like SSID and IP, but this was not function. So i take the default
- Select a file and copy it to the disk, but this is not going
With which software can i get a access on the device? I see the mac and the IP address, but i not know the ports for communication.
Can i find out which communication-protocols are running and on which port? Or which protocol is using by AirStor?
Unfortunately in Windows i cannot have access too. I cannot ping and see the device.
Over USB i have with Windows 7 pro 64Bit also no access. Its only possible to connect with AirStor?
Can anybody help me?
Kind regards
robitobi
