Tethering problem - Redmi Note 8 Pro Questions & Answers

Hello.
When I share my connection via wifi there is well written "connected" on the other device.
The person receives a lot of notifications which proves that the network is accessible.
But as soon as I open Chrome or the Google application to do a search, it says "No internet connection, try to restart your router".
It only does it with AOSP ROMs (Lineage 20 A13 in this case), if I use MIUI no problem.
I tried to modify apn_conf.xml to erase tethering (Dial Up Network) apn and add "dun" to the principal APN but I didn't succeed in doing it: "Your carrier doesn't allow adding DUN type APNs".
So I'm stuck.

FIX for Internet Explorer Not working in AT&T ROM Error

To fix the Page Not Found error in Internet Explorer -
go in to your Connection settings - click on Setup my Proxy servers - and REMOVE the check where it says "This network uses a proxy server to connect to the internet"
make sure you leave the Box checked where it says - This network connects to the internet.
and now Try connecting and browsing - it should work.
apparently AT&T customised their ROM to use their own Proxy Server.

[Q] WiFi problem - doesn't autodetect network encryption

Hi, guys !
I have a problem with my HTC Touch Pro2 when connecting to wireless networks.
When I select the wireless network in Connection Manager it asks me for the password, I click NEXT then it says that the password is wrong.
I found that if I connect to the network by going to Advanced - Change Network and manually select the encryption of the network the phone connects ok !
I think is a problem with the phone not auto-detecting the encryption because on the second page of "Change Network" the default settings in the drop-down boxes are "Open" and "WEP".
Any ideas ?
so why not manually change the encryption settings
Because, by default, it automatically detects the wireless encryption method.
And, for example, if I am in a pub and the wifi is encrypted, I can ask for the password but (for sure) they will not know the encryption method !
Anyway, I found the solution !
In HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\WZCSVC\Parameters there was a DWORD key DisableWPA with the value 1.
I set it to 0 (zero) and now it's back as it was !

[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!

SPH-L520 Working on Ting? No 4G/LTE

UPDATE: 4G/LTE wouldn't work without erasing all possible APNs except Ting's (with some messing around to get settings correct). LOS14.1 continued to throw errors with this install though so ultimately re-flashed with RR and it's working perfectly now.
--
I'm trying to port an S4 Mini SPH-L520 (CDMA) for use with Ting. Has anyone successfully done this with full access to phone, text and data? Having updated the carrier settings while stock, then flashed LOS 14.1 I've got functional voice, SMS, WiFi and can see 3G sporadically when I refresh network settings, but 4G/LTE's a no-go -- I get a "Your mobile data service couldn't be activated" error from the setup wizard every time the phone starts. It's definitely seeing Ting's SIM card because it's showing the correct ICCID, but won't work at all in RUIM/SIM mode ("No service", "Select SIM Card" with no options) and defaults back to NV. Haaaalp? I'm very computer literate but cell phones are terrifying and mysterious black magic...

Mobile Data Not Working (not completely)

Hello, I have a rather strange problem with my phone.
After the Update which has just been released (MIUI Global 10.3.1.0 (ODEMIXM)
he began to behave in a strange way my mobile internet.
For example: Youtube, Facebook, Messenger, Google Maps work normally.
And all other applications no longer (even an application to Check system update)
I'm popping up a message: No connection.
I did different things: Reset Internet settings,
change network settings in options (* # * # 4636 # * # *)
and even a hard reset.
if you have questions Yes on Wi-Fi works normally.
Greetings!
Try factory reset first.
mine has similar problems after a call. Some Internet stuff still works, most don't, unless I disable and re-enable mobile internet from the dropdown menu. Did you find a solution, MrKaim?
Same problem in my phone too. The only app which is remain usable of the internet is the Chrome browser. Messeaging apps, navigation, ebay, etc... is always lost somehow the connection: even when I using the app: for example I browsing in the ebay app and after 10mins,its says sonetging got wrong and I can go on only when I turn wifi/adata off and on. And yes, ön my mi mix 2, the problem is still exist on wifi and mobil net too.
Mi Mix 2 Havoc OS 3.7 Mobile Internet
I am facing a similar issue.
Has anyone found a solution for this ?
I'm running a ROM : Havoc OS 3.7 Android 10
Also tried ROM : AICP and Lineage.. Same Issue!
I keep shuffling LTE / 3G it connects sometime but the connection is unstable.
Permanently displays an X in the mobile signal as if there is no mobile data connection.
Please share a solution if anyone has found one.
I realize only some data isn't working but you could save your apns-conf.xml from another setup where you have no data issues and everything works perfect (I always keep one handy) and delete your current apns-conf.xml in /system/etc and system/product/etc and paste the good one in your /system/etc and set permissions on new apns-conf.xml to 0644 using root explorer or whatever root file manager you use then go to settings on your device/networks and internet/mobile network/access point names/ and top right hit the three dot menu select reset to default and wait till you see LTE show in status bar and reboot. If it's an apn issue that will solve it.
My Mix 2 isn't hooked up anymore to a service but I do use it on wifi at home but the apns-conf.xml on stock rom/miui may be slightly different than they are on an AOSP custom rom. I know that's been the case for me on every device I've done this on so be sure if you do give this a shot that you use your miui apns-conf.xml on miui roms and AOSP apn xml on AOSP custom roms so that it will work.
I've been using this process when I have had any data issues at all on my last 3 devices and it's worked 100% every single time when after installing a custom rom I've had no data this works to get LTE going. Credit to spaceminer for this info on the apn delete and swap, data fix as he's who I first learned this from on another forum.
