Ok so I have HTC Sync installed, my laptop has office dsl line, I used to have perhaps 3 or 5 secs of internet on my Sensation thanks to Internet pass-through and Quicksense rom, now that I am on Insertcoin it doesn't work at all
Is it a rom problem, kernel problem or PC problem?
i have the same problem, i think its a rom problem, cuz im on stock kernel...
just use wifi teather, its just as fast and i use it constantly
The problem is that my data plan is not compatible with android apps, so when I don't have wifi access my only source could be internet pass-through
shazbot, i hate that providers are doing that now :/ luckily not for wind in canada...yet...
the only options available seem to be trying another kernel, or switching roms (which sucks cuz IC is the best out there imo)
although you could try to reinstall htc drivers and sync and give it another shot

Hi,
Now that I've unlocked my TG01, I was hoping to use my data SIM in it and convert it to a MiFi, one of those portable WiFi access points.
I have tried HTC CM Wifi Internet Sharing which installs fine on the phone. It also seems to run and looks like it has set up an ad-hoc network.
However, there are a few problems:
The WiFi does not automatically turn on when you launch the program.
None of my WiFi enabled devices (PCs, phones, internet tablets) can 'see' the WiFi access point.
I'm just wondering whether this is because the program isn't really working, or has something to do with my other devices.
Anyone have success with this program?
Hey i use WMWifi Router app on my tg01 but it is only a trail

on my TG01 work fine! i have in all my cooked ROM´s this suite
AL_CommManager_Suite_with_WifiSharing_1_1.cab
you can test my ROM or install this cab. to work on TG01 you need this Reg change
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\CommManager\WLAN]
"DeviceName"="{98C5250D-C29A-4985-AE5F-AFE5367E5006}\\AR6K_SD1"

Miro im using your ROM release but for the life of me cant get the wifi sharing to work, well it works and it doesnt. I can see the connection on my laptop and i've managed to connect only the internet doesnt work and it says 'identifying ... no internet access' ? This is under Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit. Any ideas ?
i´m now in this moment take wifi router from my TG01 to connect the internet with my Win7 32bit Laptop. i think the problem is not TG01- the Problem is you network/firewall settings
best internet sharing you have in marketplace for free, work veary good. sorry for my bad eanglish
I've only just got the htc wifi sharing app to work properly, but if you ask me its not so great. The reason why i struggled so much to get it to work in the past is that you have to keep resetting your data conection until suddenly it works ? Even then i find it goes off every 10 mins so your constantly turning your data connection on and off which isnt very convenient. I suppose its nice to be able to set up wifi as a hotspot but for me i just cant use it ...
Instead i've started using the usb method with the windows internet sharing app, this never resets and is a proper solid and stable connection. I've even bridged it to the ps3 and managed to play online games with it. The only issue of course is the NAT type, for any sort of gaming to work you need port forwarding at the very least and since were only getting nat type 3 theres quite a few issues.
I have found a nice app called ICS Control which claims to be able to manage ports, etc but i havent quite figured out how it works. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=377047 Any ideas ?

i already used that reg tweak on the comm manager from your ROM thanks anyway. the phone switch, bluetooth, or WiFi switch do nothing.g when i press them. so idecided to install another comm mnager (htc) it works but i cannot use the WiFi router function :/
Thanks anyway!
Not sure why the wifi comm manager isnt working for you but id recommend trying miro's rom, the one which allows you to switch between sense, spb, and windows default. This is the only rom i've managed to get wifi sharing working on so id really recommend you try miro's rom .
On another subject, i was wondering if anyone knows of a way to share my tg01's internet connection to the pc but give it a static ip address. The problem with sharing without a static ip is certain sites recognise your ip has changed and log you out. Lets say i've wrote a huge message on and my ip changes, i click submit and that message is lost for good ! Its getting quite annoying since this constantly happens on ebay and pretty much any site that requires a log in, i've had to start copying and pasting my text just in case.
I have got a problem where on sense 3.5 I cannot connect to a wifi network that is hidden. I put the correct details in but it doesn't connect. It will connect to other wifi networks fine.
It is not a problem with any other type of roms just sense 3.5 - I have tried every 3.5 rom for desire s and get the same problem.
Any ideas on this
i used to have that problem. i just change my laptop ip and voila it connect.
I don't see this problem. I using ednymion 3.3
From Russia with love by my HTC Desire S
tried changing the radio yesterday to see if that helped but still get the same problem, it won't connect to a hidden wifi network. It's a hidden wifi one at work and I don't have access to change any settings on there, need to be able to connect to it as I get a poor phone signal and rely on the wifi.
Seems strange that it only happens on all sense 3.5 roms. - the sense 3.0, MIUI and ICS roms can connect to it fine.
If you have change your radio, and if it doesn't work, try this app: Wifi manager app
What is the channel of your wifi network ?
Install Wifi manager.
And on settings, check 2.4 GHZ Channel, and complete (14)
and check 5GHz channels too.
Reboot after.
And try to found your wifi network.
It's an solution.

finally got round to trying this but I am not sure what channel the wi-fi network is on. It is a hidden one that I am not supposed to know is there so I cannot really ask about it, all I know is the SSID and the PW. Phone reception at work is very poor so I rely on the wi-fi.
I checked all the channels like you said but still cannot get this to connect to the wi-fi.
Tried 3 different radio's and flashed a clean install of a sense 3.5 rom and still get this problem.
Don't mind as I can connect to it fine using MIUI , I'm just curious why it doesn't work on 3.5 sense.
Thanks for the advice though
No problem.
That's strange your problem, cos I'm on Sense 3.5 since the beginning, and I haven't got any issues with Wifi network.
But If you have find a solution, it's good for you
Any developers out there know if it it possible to port the Internet Pass-Through feature [aka Reverse Tethering] of Sense ROMs to AOSP ROMs?
There is a thread here which talks about in length but it is not a simple or trouble-free process.
If HTC can do it, surely it can't be that hard! I would love to be able to move to an AOSP ROM on my One S but cannot go without the Pass-through feature.
I'm curious about how you got pass through to work? Hasn't worked for me yet because the drivers never install when I plug my phone in. And, if it did actually work, does your phone use it like WiFi so WiFi calling works? That'd be what I need it for most.

We don't have Wifi calling on the EU phone, but then we are rarely out of range of a cell.
To get Pass-through to work, it is just a matter of connecting the phone via usb to a computer and selecting Internet pass-through from the pop-up dialogue box
BUT:
There are issues with certain firewalls. When I got the phone I was using Bullguard Internet Security on my laptop and I could not get internet pass-through to work via the firewall (it worked fine if I disabled Bullguard). I spent about 3 hours online with a Bullguard technician who was unable to solve the problem.
I have since removed Bullguard and installed Microsoft Internet Security Essentials. There are no firewall problems with MISE.
You must have the latest version of HTC sync installed for Pass-through to work.
Internet Pass-through allows the phone to connect to the internet via your PC's internet connection. I use it a lot because I spend a lot of time in hotels all around Europe. When I am out of the UK I do not use roaming data (too expensive) but I always have internet in my hotel room. This is either a wired connection, or (more often) it is a WiFi connection for a single device only. I use the hotel connection for my laptop and the pass-through connection for my phone.
I am not sure if this setup would give you WiFi calling as I am not really sure how that works (does the phone differentiate between a WiFi connection and a wired connection)? It would allow you to use Skype or another VOIP service to make calls.

I agree that it would be cool if devs could port this to other roms.
Just on the off chance someone might get some use from it, here's what I do. If you're travelling with a laptop and your hotel has Ethernet, it's really easy to set your laptop to broadcast an adhoc network to share with your phone.
I know it doesn't help with hotels that only have WiFi for one device, but with places that have Ethernet and WiFi, I find that tethering to my own laptop gets me a much better connection, and it means I don't have to lug around my router.
Sorry for the OT, back to the discussion
Has anyone been successful in getting wifi tethering (mobile hotspots) to work on a CM10 rom? I use wifi tether for root users. And it seems to work when I connect from a laptop or PC with wifi but it just doesn't seem to wanna work when I try to connect another android device such as an sgs3. Is there some kinda setting or something I'm missing? I'm using a P6200

hi,
searched a long time for the solution of the same problem... seems it´s like a strategic plan of t he producers... if it would be easy nobody would pay the 100 euros difference to upgrade to a 3g version...
found a solution (not perfect, only for emergency cases) for me: i installed open garden wifi tethering (from market) onto my htc hd2 - miui (stable version 6 by langthang). hence in its settings: activate "use bluetooth connection (pan)". enable bluetooth on the tab.
start tethering by pushing the large wifi-symbol on handyscreen. give superuser permission; confirm the pairing. just wait some seconds; then you have to enter into the settings of the new paired bluetooth device on the tab (in my case its simply called hd2) and activate the internet-option.
Now it should work (you can see the traffic on the handy-screen)

I had WiFi problem on my HTC One S for awhile. It cycles "Disconnected" and "Scanning". So I decided to install a custom ROM, tried to install CM, TrickDroid. CM works but WiFi problem continues as well, and also I lost "pass-through" option. While I cannot connect via WiFi, I connected to Internet via USB cable. So is there any custom ROM that supports "pass-through"?
I'd imagine all roms based on the official versions has that option, such as ViperS. I saw that option in Viper at least, but never tried it as I have no issues with my wifi(well, the reception is a bit on the low side, but doesnt affect performance).
