3G Hotspots tether? - Droid X Themes and Apps

Hello everyone as you can already tell I am currently browsing this website on my phone because currently I am on vacation and in a hotel that does not offer free wifi. I installed wifi tether onto my phone along with barnacle tether. The problem is that I recently installed Ubuntu 11.04 on my thinkpad and from what I've read the two above tether apps don't play nice with Ubuntu (something to so with the adhoc settings or something along those lines). I have tried USB tethered options via easy tether and PDA net but neither have worked.
I remember Wug made a zip with the 3G hotspots app and patch in one zip to be flashed in clock work. I have found the zip on several different websites but it is either just the apk or when its the apk and patch in one I get the dreaded download unsuccessfull error on my Droid x. I was wondering if using the wUG zip would even work or solve my issue (I'm on omgb for Droid x) and more importantly if someone could either post a direct link that wont download unsuccessful or if its against the rules to pm me the direct link. I've found dropbox links to it but they always freeze.
Thanks in advance.

Did you try another browser on your phone, like Dolphin. I know the stock browser always had unsuccessful downloads.

Working WiFi App for 2.2

Hi Everyone,
I was wondering currently I have tested out the Wireless Tether app and its not working for me. I have tried it with or with out access control and neither works. I was wondering if anyone know of an app that works with 2.2 or some changes that need to be made to get it working.
Thanks!
yeah i had that problem too... but the following worked for me with access control on or off and ssd name changed.
1. install this one - http://android-wifi-tether.googlecode.com/files/wireless_tether_2_0_5-pre8.apk
2. restart phone
3. test it out.
4. let us know who it worked.
Hi,
I updated the APK rebooted, I am still not able to see the device. I also tried removing permissions from the old app from superuser and regranting them. Any other ideas?

The copy you uploaded works except for access control, as soon as i enable it it will still connect to the computer but there is no internet access and wifi tether reports starting with errors. WEP still seems to work.

[Q] Need Help - Samsung Galaxy Fit S5670

Hi All,
I am relatively a new user to Android and have recently bought my new Samsung Galaxy Fit mobile phone.
I have my Broadband connection for my PC and am able to make it as a wireless router. So my only job would be connect my phone to my PC's network.
But, I got to know about the limitations we have in Android phones with Ad-hoc networking and hence will have to tweak the settings, which first requires rooting into the phone.
So, what I am looking for is a way to root into my mobile and if available a complete reference on how to connect to any ad-hoc network that is available.
Thanks so much..! Any response is highly appreciated.

You could use an app such as the one attached. Download and install the attached file and try it. Hope it helps.
Thanks Theonew for your response, but unfortunately the Z4root doesn't seem to work.
I installed it and tried runnin the app, it runs for a while and then auto disappears. I assume that this should have worked but unfortunately when I type "su" in the Terminal it shows Permission denied again.
Little more help..

Try the other app uploaded in my previous post. If it still doesn't work, then go here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=803682 and see if this works.
Hi Theonew,
Thanks for the link. I used SuperOneClick and it worked well.
Now, as I read in many articles I tried using a wpa_suppliant patch to detect the ad hoc networks but this does not seem to detetc any.
Can you please link me to any article if available

Uninstall OEM apps

How can I unstall factory apps so I can install the newer version? I am not interested in rooting my phone only want to remove Adobe Reader and Flash to upgrade both to a newer verison. I do not have internet access on the device and have been sideloading apps. I am still very unexperienced with adb and all of its features but have learned some. I tried to adb uninstall the app and get a message "failed" or something else saying denied or something. At first I tried to reboot in recovery mode and get an windows driver error. when I connect to adb with the phone in working order, I was apple to pull a list of factory installed programs and plugins. I am not allowed to delete any of them. Suggestions are appreciated. I do not get any error messages just sideloading programs.
From my understanding, It cant b done unless rooted.
Root your phone.

I have a dumb question. It would appear as though you have internet on your computer. Why not plug in the device, put it in internet passthrough mode (gives you internet from your computer) and let the market update the apps you can't?
Tried too many combinations of that and our stupid Internet provider here did something cause I can't connect. I had my ps3 hooked up this way before since you cant have ps3 hooked directly up they blocked it. I had to share my Internet connection so it would work. Now I can't get my phone to share with the computer tried various combinations.
Go to McDonalds, connect thru wifi, and update.

[Q] Ad-Hoc

Greetings to all. I have ROM prime 1.6. At me such problem. There is no return through wi-fi. Speed of return - 0. An access point - Ad-Hoc, created through Connectify me. What can it be? Forgive for my English
I'm not sure if ad hoc is possible on the Transformer. I've tried rooting mine and changing the wpa supplicant file with one that was supposed to work. No luck.
If anyone else has a way to get the Transformer to connect via ad hoc, I'm all ears.

I have my Asus transformer connecting to my iPhone which uses an adhoc type of connection
All ive done was add the wpa_supplicant to my Asus's System/bin and replaced the WPA that was there... oh by the way backup the old one before u replace it...
yout will need root access, root explorer and the modified Wpa_supplicant file
I used the search feature of this forum and found this for you -
adhoc thread 1
adhoc thread 2
adhoc thread 3
Mine works fine with my Hero running an adhoc spot.
Interesting... can I just confirm something?
So in order for my TF101 to detect and use Ad Hoc connections, i must do the following.
1. Root my TF 101
2. Replace the wpa_supplicant file
3. Have my Nokia 5800 run JoikuSpot
4. Done!
Sorry, i'm really new to this.

Reverse tethering now made simple!

This is for those who want to connect to internet using pc without wifi!!!

problem is all cm7 for my mobile have usb tether bug .. and the app doesn't work with wired tether app ;(
I download and try all cm7 2day after read tht post
I hope to find fix for the bug soon
When you say without wifi. Do you mean the PC and phone don't have wifi working radios? Because if they do and you have a wired internet connection just use connectify. It's free and works great. I may have misunderstood the purpose of the thread though.

After reviewing the app I guess I don't see my personal usefulness in such an app unless either the PC or phone don't have functioning wifi radios. Which I could see in a desktop. I do however see the usefulness on connecting to a PC to use it's internet. Clearly this app is for others that do require this function.

but there are some people without wifi hosting powered desktop...it'z for them!!

There's no need to download it from me*fire since a tusted and up-to-date APK file is available for download right from the developer's website.
SE xperia arc s here, ics ice lite, NO WAY: time limit always on
edit: able to start program but not to establish connection
Will this enable me to get internet on my Kindle Fire through my cell phone 3G tetherd via USB?
Thanks
problem
I upgraded to the latest one today and it seemed to start working. After running the program (I had it set to control 3g....or make apps work as if it saw 3g), it won't let me connect to v* with networking. Voice and sms works fine, but the 3g/1x doesn't work at all.
I'm going to try to restore from a backup and see what happens. Anybody have any ideas?
---------- Post added at 01:59 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:47 AM ----------
Not sure what happened, but I restored from a clockworkmod recovery backup I did earlier today (before I used reverse tether). Luckily, this seemed to get my network connection (3g/1x) back.
Reverse Tether is a great idea and it's really something I need, but I'm a little leery about using it now since it messed my 3g connection up.
Not working..
Hello..
It only worked for one time but now whenever i try to connect it says "cant establish a connection, please make sure that your internet is shared"
my internet connection is shared, remote NDIS usb driver is also installed ..
Plz help me..
