hi everybody!
i've got a strange problem with opera (both 9.7 and 10 beta): using a non-wifi connection, the loading of pages is slow as hell, no matter if edge, hsdpa or 3g is being used. using wifi with my broadband connection at home doen't seem to be a problem, though.
using mobile ie on non-wifi connection is ok.
do you have any suggestions what might cause this problem with opera? possible solutions? thanky you all
I'd like to know as well. I'm having the same issue although it doesn't seem to be a problem with Opera mini 5.
hi,
My default browser on my Nexus S wil not connect through 3g, firefox a. o. works fine, (even mail, maps, etc works fine). Its only the browser. I have tried it with 2 providers but it doesnt matter. Wifi works okay.
it's a bit annoying.

Hi all
Is ad-hoc mode supported in Honeycomb 3.2? For me it's the only way when tether with my old Windows Mobile 6.5...
Thanks!
would be nice if somebody answered this question .... ?
it's come up a couple of times since the update without response.
as a side-note, if anybody has managed to internet-tether through a wm6.5 phone (like my htc hd2) either by wifi or bluetooth * WITHOUT RE-FLASHING THE PHONE TO ANDROID * (not interested in doing that) then how did you make it work?
ironically (and frustratingly), my older WM6 htc tytn II (kaiser) internet-tethers with the asus via bluetooth straight out of the box, so it can be done.
I can confirm that after Update to Honeycomb 3.2 my HTC LEO(WM6.5.x) can
share data (Internet)over Wifi-Router!
Test it few minutes before

ahhhah! this rocks!!!
From the start this update was kind of disappointed for me... until now: with these great news it's more balanced (the lag's stock browser will kick me the ass for sure, I don't know what is the reason for leaving this bug unresolved )
Thanks a lot for your time leonore
I assume I'm doing something wrong but I'm using non rooted 3.2 and when I tried to see if I could use it with Joiku on my Nokia the Transformer would not see the hotspot, although my laptop had no problem connecting to it. If adhoc is working is there some setting that has to be changed for it to see it?
My Tf does NOT support ad-hoc. Stock 3.2.
I have not heard anything from the release notes anywhere about Android 3.2 now supporting Ad-Hoc networks. But to the OP, I tried everything to get my WM6.5 phone to tether to my GTab 6 months ago and never could get it to work properly because my WMWifiRouter program on my WinMo phone created a Ad-Hoc network. I could connect to any laptop but no Android systems. In the end, I just went and bought a new Android phone and tethering was a breeze. I never looked back...
this is weird. Leonore, how do you share the connection with the phone? what software are you using? the only way I know with a WM is WMrouterwifi. I haven't the last version but I guess it only supports ad-hoc mode...
Bye the way, you can easily share your wm6 internet through Bluetooth with WMWifiRouter. It works great!

really? I read TF was unable to connect via bluetooth due to some sort of limitation in the driver (something like ad-hoc case) . I'll give it a try right now.
Do you have some special configuracion / software on TF? are you rooted?

I never tried tethering through Bluetooth just because of the speed limitation. I guess if you just needed a quick fix but it brings back the old memories of 14.4k dial-up... lol

Bluetooth's 2.0 data rate is around 2 Mbits, quite low but enough for me as a temporal access. I'll use it only on vacations time, in my summer place. It's a very little town and in that place 3g really sucks.

uaah! I tried it and it works like a charm!!! without additional software in the TF, and the battery drains slower than wifi.
I guess this way is easier than wifi, there is no need to configure DHCP, the only thing is the pin code.
This saved the day pal, I was very displeased with the missing support for ad-hoc in 3.2. For me it's a very basic feature.
Thanks a lot Dauntless!
I'm using Barnacle Wifi Tether on my Xperia X10 and my TF tethers to it just fine.
I'm also using "Auto-Tether" and I'd highly recommend it; it allows you to enable tethering and to turning tethering on and off from the TF...very handy...you don't even have to take your phone out of the holster!
EDITED TO CORRECT; I just realized that I wasn't REALLY able to connect; I had to use the special WPA_supplicant file here on XDA...so the answer is....nope....not until you root and use that replacement WPA file.

hang on, so you are saying the stock hd2 wifi router app doesn't work but what does work is some unspecified cooked rom of yours?
what have you done to make it work then?
re. bluetooth tethering, this definitely does not work on the hd2 using wmwifirouter (BT option greyed-out) or ny any other means that i can fathom.
as i said BT DOES work with my old wm6 tytn II, both in wmwifirouter and directly via the OS.
can anybody else confirm ad-hoc wifi tethering now working in 3.2?
can anybody else confirm ad-hoc wifi tethering now working (or not) in 3.2?
I just checked and I still cannot see ad-hoc networks from the TF running 3.2. So, it is confirmed that 3.2 still does NOT support ad-hoc networks.
Hello everyone. I have been having a wifi issue lately and I'm hoping someone here can help me out. I can connect to my home wifi and surf the internet, use Facebook and watch Youtube and use some other apps. Lately however, I am not able to use apps like Pandora, Slacker, 93.9 The Beat, POF, OkCupid and MeetMe. I'm sure there are others as well that I haven't tried yet since this issue has started. I can also connect to xfinity wifi (I'm not sure who's that is) and all of the apps work fine. I am on the stock ROM, S-Off and unlocked running Android 5.0.1 If any one could help, it would be appreciated. Thank you in advance.

Do you use a proxy at home? I know some apps don't work well with proxys...
Change anything recently on your home router?
Did you say everything works FINE on xfiniti wifi?
Xfiniti Wifi is a major cable operators wifi. You'd need to have access to their services to use their wifi.

Hello bigblueshock. I have not made any changes to my phone/router/modem. I have shut them all completely down and restarted them and that did not help. And all of the devices are up to date. Yes everything works fine when I connect to Xfinity wifi. I have ComCast/Xfinity cable and internet. I'm not sure if it's my Xfinity wifi I'm connecting to though. I have signed in on a prior occasion and I was connected, so maybe. But when I try to connect to my wifi (the one that I know is mine) that is when I have my issues. It was working fine up until recently. I am not using any proxy.

If you're connecting to a different WiFi (such as XFINITI) with no problem. I'd say there's a high chance somethings going on your end... whether it be router/modem related.
One way to test is to connect another android device to YOUR network, and see what happens... Possibly even an Apple device. Any friends or family have android devices?
If the router is one comcast provided.. maybe they pushed an update to it which messed up something.

I have an old Samsung Omnia II that is running on Windows 6.5. When I connect to my home wifi, Slacker Radio works fine and so does everything else on the phone. It connects directly to my Netgear wifi it does also show xfinity wifi as available as well. But it doesn't have the app like my much newer HTC One M8 has. My M8 does show my Netgear home wifi and that is the one I'm having issues with. It seems like it's my M8 that is having the troubles.

If you are at your own home you shouldn't be on the xfinity Wi-Fi side. You should be on your private network.
