hi all! I've found a topic where all people was talking about the wifi tethering with ad-hoc connection using Motorola Xoom..with the help of some XDA's guys, they were able to connect a phone to xoom using ad-hoc spot. So this method can be applied also to the Transformer? i think that - if the OS is the same for each android tablet - is possible to mod the same file to the same mode, or not?

The same method certainly worked on Acer Iconia A500 tabs. I did it to mine before swapping it out for a Transformer. AFAIK it was the same wpa_supplicant file from the Xoom forums here on XDA that I pushed to my Iconia and it worked well. Might give it a bash in a bit.

So if this is possibile all ppl that are still using Wm6.5 will be able to tethter them 3G connection without any problems on the TF? do you remember if you encountered some trouble on iconia after this mod? I don't believe that Android doesn't still have the possibility to connect with other devices without the use of infrastucture mode. (big handicap )

No, it didn't cause any problems. Just make sure you follow the instructions. Set the permissions on wpa_supplicant properly otherwise you will break your wifi. Ofc, you will need to have root. Good luck.

We did this same trick to allow ad-hoc on the elocity a7... worked like a charm. Not rooted yet to try this though myself.
Well idk if this is helpful, but ive been tethering my Droid X to my TF via bluetooth and works flawlessly, must admit it makes my DX slow and crappy but while im tethering im not really gonna be using my phone. I like to think it saves battery too, correct me if im wrong on the wifi vs bluetooth battery consumption.

thank you to the OP I've been trying so hard to get tethering from my verizon Galaxy S (&^#$ verizon) I didn't want to have to shell out $20 more bucks for data when I go on a road trip later.
somehow it wont connect to the hotspot created by my nokia e71 & e72, old phone i know... does it have to be an android phone?

The android ad hoc wifi issue is quite well documented on the net - google code
Don't think google have mentioned anything about putting in support for it, but the wpa_supplicant hacks are used for lots of older devices that 'can't see' ad hoc and seem to cover it pretty well for root users.
Most newer phones, especially android devices, now generate tether points in infrastructure mode - hence why some of the posters above with newer phones do not need to use the wpa mod.
Looks like you will have to root and mod your transformer or get a phone that generates 'infrastructure' and say bye bye to your e71

Hello everybody,
I am quite new to android as i just bought this phone 3 months ago and before that i had an iphone.
I know everybody is happy with the upcoming ICS and the SDK that could be used for theme's, sounds and even more. but i know some of you are looking for a port from the SDK.
At this moment i am working on a port for the Sensation, but i have little to no knowledge on porting roms and such. so it takes a little while. but good news is i got it to boot up the service ril-daemon, and as far as i can see it will take a little bit more work till it will boot up fully.
If by any chance i can get it to work i do not promise that anything will work.
but i just wanted you guys to get a heads up on what i am doing at the moment and if anyone likes to help with development you are welcome to throw me a PM..
I will be updating this thread every once in a while when i have made progression.
A lot of work has been done. and i have made something that boots but needs a lot of work.
Whats working
-backlight screen
-buttons
-volume buttons
-boots
-hw acceleration (not tested just yet)
-screen
whats not working
-touchscreen
-all the rest.
we just got the screen working but wanted you guys to know it. we will test things out and upload later on.
device has got graphics working, but a load of services are failing so we still need to fix those things and hopefully get touch working soon as well.
DOWNLOAD LINK
ICS SENSATION v0.0.3
Just for dev only at this moment.
I'm excited either way.atleast someone is attempting a port. Alot of the devs look at it as a waste of time, but I don't think it is, especially if its as useful as the nexus s port. I wish you good luck my friend and if your looking for anyone to test, don't hesitate to PM me.

Nice to see you are making some progress with that
Keep us posted

Glad to see someone with better ability wants this too.
I myself have been trying this just flashed my first .zip file last night have not even run a log cat on it yet. So you are way further then me. I have also been doing a lot of research through the forums and plan to expand my research to other places on the web tonight to see if might come across anything. I got a lot of reading and learning to do as I am certain you know way more about what you are doing. Best of luck to you and I will PM you if I come across anything you might could find useful.
Oh yeah by the way you probably should have posted this in the development forums, that is if you do not already have a thread there. I have not visited the development forums today yet.
Best of luck to you.
you're way ahead of me too - zips won't even flash for me (no idea why) and if I do bludgeon one into working, then logcat doesn't work
Nice, three devs working on this. I'm really happy right now. You guys should just all work together on this so our device will be the second or third to actually run the port

I've gotten connecting to the network working so far. SMS seems to work fine and it lists my network. I'm unable to use the data though. It just tries to connect but fails. Unfortunately system/bin/sh doesn't work so no logcat currently to see why.
EDIT: Removing /system/bin/sh and replacing it with a symlink to /system/bin/ash seems to have worked. Now I can run logcat at boot at least.

Wow i hope and pray you guys get this port working for the Sensation and i wish yall lots of luck. I know it can be done with patience and pure thinking!
cannot locate 'android_atomic_cmpxchg'...
That's the error that's preventing boot for me.
It's 3am for me so I'm done for last night (this morning) I know I don't have a perfect port such as I know my inits need work, which might add another issue once this one is figured but yeah, idk where you guys are.

Well I am pretty much stuck for the moment ass I can not get my build to even flash right now and can not figure out why........
But tarends messaged me and it seems like he is very close to a fully booting build. So hopefully when we all hear back from him he will have something that is ready for trouble shooting to get things working which I already have a lot of info that might help get a couple of things working on a build that will boot.

I suggest you PM tarends and ask him if he can give you a run down on what he has, I have not asked if he wants to discuss everything here in the forums yet. He would probably would not mind but I would rather ask first. I think I might have a lead on what to do to get my build to flash. I am not sure but I think I have to edit the build.prop cause it is looking for 4 mount points but only finds 3. Thanks to XDA senior Member malybru and XDA Recognized Developer mike1986 for helping to get me going in the right direction.

Ohhh... You're oh so helpful with that comment!!!! Surprised nobody has "Thanked" your helpful post.
Anyways, I too had this problem with HFS v1.4 and did not find a solution. I did have my APN set to T-Mobile, so I don't believe that was the problem. My issue was also present with WiFi turned on, even with WiFi Calling turned on (Although I don't believe WiFi Calling has anything to do with it).
I never got a chance to debug the issue further as I had a need for the Video Camera to operate properly, and switched back to a GB ROM for the time being.
I'll re-flash my v1.4 of HFS and see if I can check the logs to see if anything is there.

works for me
i just tried it on HFS 1.5 with harsh reborn and it works for me. Check your APN settings. probably redo it.

To me benchmarking is pointless really, it's about how it works for you, but people are obsessed with the numbers game. See it on PC forums all the time. Don't buy XXX video card, it sucks, it only get 126fps while the $90 more card gets you 140fps. Like it matters at that high of a FPS. But they overclock, flash new BIOS, modify their card with new crap to get it to 142fps so they can brag. Or car people, oh, I tweaked my engine so I get 20hp more and I can hit 140mph. Good for you, when are you going to be able to drive it 140mph. lol.
Battery life is hard to tell because everyone uses their phone differently unless you take 2 phones, put them side by side with 2 different roms and do the exact same things on them, you'll never know which rom is better. Even then, one battery may be slightly better than the other and is going to skew the results.
