Thanks to some of the guys that helped me out with answers in this Post I have now got the TF.
As advised, I got one with a serial number that begins with B6
Came home and tried to set it up ... Wifi was required and so I enabled it, but no luck ... refuses to find my home SSID. Turns out that I have to go to regulatory domain and change the number of channels to 14.
I am in brothers house as I have come to Australia for holiday. It is here that the above problems arose. He tried to help by attempting to change the channel he uses to a different one, but he can't remember his setup password.
A search on xda reveals a number of guys having problem with the missing option of setting Regulatory Domain. Anyone knows how to get around this trouble?
On my Nexus S I have a custom rom that has the option to set Regulatory Domain, but don't think it was there originally.
Thanks for any help/ advise.
PS ... I have 3.1 on the TF

Hi
I have an HTC Touch Cruise that I bought over the Internet. It has worked perfectly with the phone operator that I have been with for the last 5 years.
I changed my phone operator: Changed the SIM card . I see the name of the new company on the screen (top left). I can use the phone, but cannot send SMS's. On the Connections Tab in the Settings I accessed the Connection Setup and the name of the original opertor still appears. In the Comm manager I went into the Phone Settings and on the Services Tab I pressed "Get Settings" for all the services. On the Network Tab the Current network is that of the new operator. I pressed on FIND Network button and the SET Network buttons and it seems that the current network is that of the new one, yet a message appears "Connection Setup. The operator does not exist on the database. Please contact your operator for connection settings. Connection setup will redirect you to the Connections screen". This message has appeared from the moment I changed the SIM card. The new operator does not not know how to help me. Can someone point me in the right direction? What does it mean that the "operator does not exit in the database"? How can I make it appear on the database?
Thanks
Brian
I suggest you state your current operator and country. Maybe someone can share the settings you should key in. Another option is too google something like: youroperatorname internet or gprs settings (that's how I did it for my wife last month). I remember there is a specific thread here at xda dealing only with these kind of settings. Another option is to look for the lastest version of htconfiguration tool in case it is already there (maybe you use an "old" rom). Good luck
Hi Cruiserrr
Thanks for your quick response. The operator is Orange and the country is Israel. I'll Google what you suggested. I'm using the original ROM.Can you remember the thread?Where do I find if there is a new version of the htconfiguration tool and how will it help my situation? And how would I use it/
Thanks
Brian
I typed in google "gprs settings orange israel" and had lots of links. eg here at xda http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=218329. Maybe the first one does not work since the link maybe old. Try a few posts and you should be up and running in a few minutes.
htcconfiguration tool ??? I think I invented myself the name. I am referring to the same app you mentioned connectionsetup (htc made)-
this is the part of the forum where you should look for gprs settings http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=262
Cruiserrr
Thanks for the info. I'll check out your leads in the morning and I'll let you know how it went.
Once again, Thanks

I just received a call from the company's network administrator asking what my Xoom was called on the wi-fi network. He had several devices that show up as Android-and then some numbers. We had to identify my tablet and phone by their MAC address. Do you know of a way to change the name that is broadcast? He mentioned the iPads on the network had the usernames associated with them...
Thank you!
Mine actually shows up with no name when I use Softperfect network scanner, however it might show up under the specific model of your Xoom (ie: MZ604 etc), the model will vary by the type of Xoom you have - Wifi/3G etc.
It might help your admin if you go to settings, click about tablet and then to Status; the IP address it lists there should be the internal network IP

Thanks Corallis for the response. We can see it show up its just that it is called Android-XXXX and so is my phone and someone else's. Would be great if we could change that identified to be Android-myname so the IT guys know it is a trusted device (sort of ...) and don't boot me off the network.

The information might be a bit dated, but this thread is relevant: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=668300
Should get you in the right direction. I am looking for a simple way but there doesn't appear to be one unfortunately. I don't see hostname exposed anywhere in the network/wifi configuration, not even if you specify a static ip.

Thanks. A slightly complicated process. Seems like I could do that for my phone since it has a custom ROM but not on the tablet.
Odd there isn't an easier way to name your device.
I'm a network admin, and I recently had this same issue since I needed to find the ip address of my Xoom so I could set a content filter policy for it. I'm kind of surprised that there isn't a way to give the tablet a name (ala iOS devices). Regardless, it wasn't that hard to figure out since the DNS name began with android.... we don't have many of those devices on the network where I work.
Hi,
exist some HOMEBREW app which can let me change the IP address ?
Somebody told me that it exist.
Thanks.
Well, you can easily specify your own IP address for WiFi networks. That's built into the phone.
For the cellular network... I'm not aware of a way, though it probably does exist. I'm not sure anybody has coded it as a WP7 app, though.
Why do you need to do this? Your IP address quite probably changes every time you reboot your phone; why do you need it to be a constant value?

For me this threat is also interested. And why would be practice to be able to put static IP address is simple, what to do when you want to connect in WIFI environment where is no DHCP.
Or let say ISP, give you STB with WLAN on which is not enabled DHCP.
Cheers.
As I said, specifying your own IP address is easy on WiFi (specifically for networks without DHCP). Open the WiFi settings page, press-and-hold on a network, and select Edit. If you connect to a network that doesn't have DHCP, it should prompt you for the settings when you first connect.

My friend, this what you are wrote is written in user manual which I am get with my optimus 7. There is also written that is procedure for connecting on hidden network is press-and-hold on any wlan net and change the name according with hidden net and I could not reach hidden net until I am receive latest fw(few days ago) and I have optimus 7 almost nine month.
In any case, what you are wrote not applies for optimus 7, maybe for some other phone apply, but not for optimus 7, at least with OPN Firmware.
Cheers.
Ah... I don't have an LG phone, so if there's some weird quirk to their WiFi drivers, I can't help you with that. Sorry. :-(
JosipoGo, have you connected your phone to Zune and done updates that way? Go to Settings=> about phone and tell us what version of OS you have.
I am thinking you may be running NoDo on your phone, as anything with Mango or above should have the ability to change IP address. Yes, your shipping firmware (if it is NoDo version) may not have this feature, and it wouldn't be on your phones manual if that is the case.
If you have never done system updates, you should be able to add this feature by preforming the Zune update (if an update is available for your phone).
Does anyone know how to setup a static IP address on the ics rom. I have the silver03wrx collective rom installed on my phone. I have tried all setting and advanced setting and no where do i see or have an option to setup this info so i can access my wifi setup at home. I can set up my network name / security / and password, but i can not add my ip device ip- gateway- dns server etc...
any help is greatly appreciated
Thanks
Nevermind figured it out. it was a little sneeky devil. wooohooo
Here are the steps to set up static ip for anyone needing to do this.
1. go to system settings
2. click on wifi
3. click on add network
4. enter your network ssid
5. choose your security
6. enter your password for you network
7. click save
ok here is where you have to let it find the network, let it connect and aquire an ip address (even thou it is not the correct one) let it do its thing. do not skip this step otherwise you will not be able to configure the ip or save it.
once it says it is connected go back and do steps 1-2
you will see your network and it should say connected.
long press on your network name. it will bring up 2 options.
1 forget network
2 modify network config.
click on modify network config
it will bring up a bunch of settings. scroll down till you see a box that says :" Show advanced options"
click on the box. ( do not save or cancel the window)
scroll down a little bit and you will see 2 boxes
1 proxy settings
2 ip settings <<< click on the lower right hand coner and change this from dchp to static.
once you do this you will see settings under that box input all your info into these boxes *****( leave 3rd box that says " network prefix length" at 24 )******* once you have completed click save and your phone should be connected to you static ip network..
1 ip address
2 gateway
3 network prefix length (Leave this at 24)
4 dns 1
5 dns 2
6 ******* CLICK SAVE ********* not cancel or you will have to repeat the process. LOL Dont ask how i know this 3 times.. LOL
I hope this helps everyone. Sorry for putting up these instructions late, but unfortunatlly i got a little busy trying to fix a loss of root.
If this helped hit the Thanks button.
maybe you could edit your OP or second post and type in the exact solutions, for newer users who may be searching for the same thing? Heck, you may even get some thanks out of it.

ICS WLAN static IP problem solved via App "WiFi Manager"

This is my working solution after 4 hours of learn/search/try:
Since the main problem for us all was the disabled "save"-button I searched for a workaround.
I found an free App "Wifi Manager" by Kostya Vasilyev in the Google Market.
OK, mentioning this app may sound a little spammy but it isn't!
If you make a longclick on the questionable SSID (see 2nd screenshot in Google Market) you have the opportunity to set the static values. And this includes the good old subnet mask.
By the way: Nice info here: "www gadgetwiz com/network/netmask html" about the mystical 24 entry in the ICS static settings. The "Address Prefix Length" is a new subtitution for the old subnet mask.
Best regards,

Hey XDA , Today I have come to you guys with a problem​My workplace has a authenticated WIFI network so what happens is I am connected to this network and in my settings it says a Proxy address , a proxy Port and Username and Password.
Now the browser works great however I have encountered an error with applications as none of them work.
Now before you guys says that this has been asked many times , I know it has because since around 3 weeks i am reading through forum posts but none of them applications work for me for example , Trans proxy , droid procy , sandro proxy .
My main question would be that is there a rom for the sensation which has authentication support throughout the phone including apps
and if that isnt possible then how would i fix my problem.
The information i know about the network is :
The Proxy Hostname
The Proxy Port
My Username
My password.
Thanks for you help guys!

Hey, my school has the username and password authentication thing and i changed the proxy authentication 2 from none to MHSVP2 or something like that but remember it has a 2 at the end or authentication number 2 but there is a advanced setting option which says MHSCVP2.

Hi , I have tried to find an option which says MHSCVP2 or something like that but in settings>wireless network connections i cant find anything like that .
It would be really helpful if you could provide a little bit more information or maybe a screenshot of the setting.
Thanks For your reply!
