WiFi Direct - using Lineage to "share" - One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Can I use WiFi Direct to "share" files on Lineage 17.1 ?
I can see how to connect to other devices via Wifi Direct but cannot find a share option which will allow me to send an image file to another device.
Do I need to install additional software to support this type of share ?
I note that I get a message "Direct Share not available". Is this a security problem or do I need to tweak anoter configuation setting ?

Bluetooth HID for MIUI

This guide is based heavily on the one found here: http://i-miss-erin.blogspot.com/2009/09/connect-bluetooth-keyboard-in-android.html
In fact, all information was gleaned from Erin's blog (super props to Erin). This guide is just slightly simplified, with a flashable zip instead of a few ADB steps/
Step 1.) Download the MIUI_Bluetooth_HID.zip from the Download page
Step 2.) Turn Bluetooth ON from Setting UI and click 'Scan for devices'
Step 3.) Select your bluetooth keyboard and pair it.
Step 4.) Under your keyboard android will state "Paired but not connected"
Step 5.) Open up a command prompt/terminal. I am working on a script to automate this part, but for now, you need to use ADB).
Note: Some of the following commands will output text.
adb shell
hcitool scan
(All bluetooth devices in range will be listed here. Look for your bluetooth keyboard, and copy down it's MAC Address)
hidd --connect xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx
(Replace xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx with your bluetooth keyboard's MAC Address)
hcitool con
(This command shows all connected HID devices, and should list the MAC Address of your bluetooth keyboard)
And that should be it - try typing and see if it works.
If anyone knows how to do the following in a bash script, I'd be grateful if you could tell me.
- Search for a text string in a text file, and replace it with a different text string.
The idea here:
- Script1 runs the scan
- The user copies down the keyboard's MAC Address
- The user enters the MAC Address and it is stored as a variable (is it possible for this to happen automatically?)
- The Script1 then duplicates a second script file called Script2
- The Script1 replaces a preset string (eg xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx) inside Script2 with the correct MAC Address of the bluetooth keyboard.
- Script1 runs Script2
- Script2 completes the HID control command
anyway, Thank Erin if it works for you - it worked for me.

Sense Integration
Can someone PLEASE integrate this into a Sense ROM? IE: Currently using PAYS 2.2...
I tried forcing the files in to /system/xbin but I get the following:
# hcitool scan
Device is not available: No such device
I just got an Rii mini BT Keyboard because it said it was Android compatible, but the drivers won't validate... apparently there's a licensing issue with the OEM or something (found this info on a Google search).
Can someone help?

hi
hi
can u please help me to connect desire hd to rii mini blue tooth keyboard
it is detected but not pairing. Please help me
Hate to bump an old thread like this, but I've been trying to get this type of support on my phone and keep getting pointed to the Desire thread.
On that note, on the Download page the file we are told to download (MIUI_Bluetooth_HID.zip) isn't there. Any idea where it went?
Thanks!
any progress on this dude? i mean automating the connections?
I know this is a thread about HTC Desire, and I beg your apologies in advance for the intrusion, but...this solution is expected to work also in a Motorola Defy, or it will not work?
(just wondering if can be applies in other phones too...)

Need firmware for asus padfone

Hi!
I have some problem with my padfone. Does not working wi-fi and bluеtooth modules.
For repair I need firmware for padfone. Please if anyone have ..... share.
Asus has released PadFone Kernel Code for Android 4.0.3 ICS OS (V9.18.8.2)
Can i make firmware use PadFone Kernel Code?
How can i do it?
Kernel source code allows you to compile a Kernel for the Padfone.
It is not the complete firmware you are looking for
Please tell me more about the problems you are having. I understand it is with the WiFi and BT modules, what have you tried to fix the problem?
juzz86
Thank you for your reply.
My problem was due to my wrong actions.
I've got root access to the Padfone.
I tried to install (Bluetooth SIM Access Profile) android-rsap
Then did the factory reset.
As a result of these actions, there was a change of some files that are associated with the work of the module bluetooth. Now when you try to enable Wi-fi or Bluetooth does not work.
In the directory / system / bin / some binary files (ls, ln, mkdir and etc.) Have a size of 0kb.
It seems to me that if build the kernel for padfone it should fix the problems.
I tried to restore the firmware after an android recovery e3 but recovery directory is empty.
Please help meee
ps GSM module is perfect working
I see. I'll see what I can find out regarding a firmware for you, have you received the OTA at all yet?
Also, are you able to perform a reset/reflash through the ASUS PC Suite software, something like what Samsung Kies offers?
http://www.asus.com/Mobile/PadFone/#download
Yes, I received OTA, now build number IML74K.CHT_Padfone-9.18.8.41_CHT_9.1.15-0.
Before update yet i had problem with camera (don't startup). But it problem was resolved, once i applied the latest updates OTA. But it did not resolve problem with bluetooth and wi-fi.
Out of curiosity, how big (size in MB) was the OTA?
I know little about these things, but I'm wondering if we could find the OTA file, extract the system.img, and manually flash it through cmd prompt using recovery?
124,1 MB. I think that fully update be 300-400 МБ
Hmm. That's probably not going to help us.
There is one more avenue you could try. Send a private message to XDA member 'Football'. He leaks ROMs and firmwares for devices. He may be able to help you out?
I know he does a lot of HTC devices, but he's been known to be able to source others, too
ok thank you. I will try to contact him.
No worries mate
Asus released firmware.
http://ru.asus.com/Mobile/PadFone/#download
Excellent mate, that should set you on the right track.
Good luck!

How Do I Change "WAP" Settings ?

I have gone over the problems people have had with " WiFi Tether " on this device and have deduced it down to the WAP ( wifi access points ) settings. I can't for the life of me figure out how to change the settings though. When connected to the computer via wifi, FoxFi will give and error on connection of " limited access ". FoxFi will work on all my phones but this model ( even the new LG Nexus 5 ). If anyone can give me some directions on changing the WAP settings to allow WAP2 on this device please post as soon as possible....Thank you.....
* DEVELOPERS, PLEASE PUT A FIX FOR THIS IN YOUR ROMS THANKS IN ADVANCE!!

Huawei E5770 custom firmware & O2 SIM unlock

Custom 21.329.01.00.00 firmware and 17.100.19.01.00 web interface for E5770
The firmware is based on the original global firmware version 21.329.01.00.00. It can be installed on any technological firmware, or updated from a modified firmware.
Flash using balongflash (Windows, Linux).
Attention!
This firmware can render your device unbootable! Use it only if you are aware of all the risks and consequences. In case of any problems, do not wait for help, you're on your own. Do not install firmware by non-tech-savvy people request, and do not sell routers with this firmware preinstalled.
Changes:
Firmware digital signature verification in the firmware server is disabled
Added support for IPv6 on mobile networks (disabled by default, could be activated "ipv6" script)
ADB installed and Telnet activated (disabled by default, controlled from the OLED menu)
The stock versions of busybox, iptables and ip6tables programs are replaced with full-fledged ones
The "atc" utility is installed to send AT commands from the console
Installed "ttl" script for modifying (fixing) TTL (for IPv4) and HL (for IPv6)
Installed "imei" script to change IMEI
A local transparent proxy server "tpws" and a script "anticensorship" are installed to circumvent censorship to sites from the registry of prohibited sites in Russian Federation (IPv4 only)
Added DNS over TLS resolver stubby (version 1.5.1, compiled with OpenSSL 1.0.2p) and DNS-level adblock (IPv4 only)
Added extended menu on OLED screen
Added RNDIS and ECM Ethernet switching functionality without a switch program on a computer
All NVRAM items are unlocked
AT^DATALOCK code is disabled
Added kernel module TUN/TAP (for OpenVPN and other programs)
Added OpenVPN (version 2.4.6, compiled with OpenSSL 1.0.2p) and scripts for DNS redirection
Added curl (version 7.63.0, compiled with OpenSSL 1.0.2p)
Added EXT4 kernel module and swap support
Added script for installing Entware application repository
Added script "adblock_update", for updating the list of advertising domains
Added script to change MAC address of Wi-Fi in Extender mode (script "wifiext_mac") and USB MAC addresses (script "usb_mac")
Removed mobile connection logging (mobile logger) to extend flash memory lifetime
Multilingual web interface with GSM/UMTS/LTE band selection menu
The extended menu on the OLED screen allows you to manage network mode (LTE/3G/GSM), TTL modification, circumvent censorship, ad blocking, IMEI change, USB composition, control access to the web interface, Telnet and ADB.
TTL modification and IMEI change require a reboot. The remaining menu items are applied instantly.
To activate extended menu, press left (WPS) button 7 times on Wi-Fi information screen.
The "anticensorship" script helps to bypass Deep Packet Inspection (DPI) systems on some operators in order to bypass web site blocking. It starts the local proxy server from zapret complex https://github.com/bol-van/zapret, modifying the packets in such a way as to complicate their analysis, and redirects all traffic to ports 80 (for HTTP) and 443 (for HTTPS) to local proxy. The proxy server works autonomously, without any third-party server on the Internet. It is recommended to use it in conjunction with DNS over TLS, in order to prevent possible DNS hijacking by the operator.
Advertisement blocking is performed on DNS level with dnsmasq DNS server. It works with DNS over TLS as upstream, requests for which are redirected if the corresponding menu item is activated from the OLED screen. EasyList and RuAdList https://forums.lanik.us/viewtopic.php?f=102&t=32524 from raletag and AdAway https://adaway.org/hosts.txt are used as an ad lists.
Ad-blocking at the DNS level works worse than full-fledged content blockers in browsers (AdBlock, µBlock), but it works on any device and in any program without additional settings.
You can also control ad blocking with the "dns_over_tls" script.
Domain lists could be updated using "adblock_update" command.
Entware application repository allows you to install additional Linux software from the armv7sf-k3.2 entware repository http://bin.entware.net/armv7sf-k3.2/Packages.html, using "opkg" package manager used in open source firmware for OpenWRT routers. Entware is installed using the "entware install" command. Entware files are installed in /opt, which is mounted in /online/opt. You can install many programs on 30 MB free space after installation on /online partition.
The router and Entware environments are independent of each other, the installed Entware software cannot be called from the router's environment, and the firmware programs and scripts cannot be called from the Entware. This was done to ensure that the installed packages would not conflict with files in the firmware.
To gain access to the Entware environment, use the "entware shell" command, to exit, type exit (or press CTRL+D).
Entware is designed for advanced users who understand how to customize and use installable programs. About 15 MB of free RAM is available in the router, the launch of heavy programs can lead to the crash of important services for the router (especially when DNS over TLS is enabled), remember that.

No, that's a hardware limitation. Different hardware modifications have different radio hardware. They could be converted by soldering some components though.

You can download ZeroNet and download it from there, because ZeroNet to Internet gateways are unreliable.

Probably something with Qualcomm chipset, which I'm not savvy in.
It depends on LTE bands or countries you're planning to use the device.

Hi OP,
my device is stuck on download mode.
can you please explain the flashing steps for the custom firmware.
As per your Read-Me the firmware should be flashed by balong_flash FLASH_FILE.BIN command.
Whats unclear to me is which file is to be flashed first. There are 2 .bin files in the custom firmware archive.
It will be a great help if you can give a step-by-step guide.

First of all, to install custom firmware you need to install technological firmware somehow. You can't install it just by flashing, it will require flash code which cannot be obtained easily. To bypass flash code check, I made downgrading firmwares for several firmware versions. You need to install downgrading firmware for your current firmware version, which will downgrade to technological firmware, and from technological firmware you can install any firmware, including custom one.
What exact steps did you perform, what exact result did you get?

Question Wifi-Calling

Hi All
I have Oppo Reno 6 pro 5G, the Snapdragon Version, model # CPH2247, for some reason the Wifi calling option doesn't appear in the setting, also the Volte feature doesnt appear, can someone tell me how to force them to appear? as I know the guys in India has this option in their setup menu
Follow the steps -; Settings>Mobile network>Select sim (1/2)> wifi calling > enable then wifi calling prefrence . Select and enjoy
But for some reason, I don't have the wifi calling option at all so I can't enable what doesnt exist
is there a way to make it appear
Can you visit to nearest Oppo Service Center and they'll install a new software in it.
NOTE :- Please take a backup before.
Hi, did you resolve it? I have the same problem
