Anybody got the "wpa_supplicant" works in P6210 for Tethering over Adhoc?
also looking for adhoc on Galaxy Tab p6210 wifi only
Does anyone have a solution to this yet? Really want this to work.. already zapped my wifi on my first p6210 Tab and had to return it.
Please develop this someone.. for GT-P6210 7.0 Plus, WIFI ONLY, Honeycomb 3.2, already Rooted and running stable.
*Looking for: AdHoc PROVEN solution for P6210 (Already Rooted) So I can tether my Tab through my Smartphones wifi (Cell phone (mine is nokia) acts as 3g to wifi hotspot. thats why i got a wifi only tablet!)
Come on Geniuses!
Another way to bypass.
If you have wmwifiRouter installed in your wm smart phone, you may use this way to tether your Tab to the phone. you will need a hardware Access Point to bridge the wifi:

It works well for me, just for temp use though. still waiting for the wpa_supplicant to come out.
GT-P6210 Adhoc: Need solution
I looked up WMWifiRouter and found that its sister program for my nokia is JoikuSpot and I was running that steadily for a while for my laptop.. works fine for normal wifi (not adhoc) because our android devices block adhoc connections.. my laptop and desktop work fine... its only the android LOOK HERE -> www .joiku.com/help ... Top of page under "Solutions for Top 6 questions" .. Line #3 ..
>> 3.Make sure your connecting device (e.g. laptop or tablet) allows AD HOC WIFI connection. Some Android tablets block ad hoc wifi connections.<<
So we need developers (not me i'm stupid) to work on this.. Please guys!
What I meant was you may tranfer your smart phone's adhoc to a normal wifi through a hardware AP, then the Tab can pick it without even rooted.
need help
i see what u mean.. I cant find another ap for my nokia to do that. Also, i feel like android is blocking good features so big cell companies make more money.. I already have an unlimited data plan thru an offbrand carrier. If my tab didnt block adhoc i would love my tab more.. But im thinking about an apple product.. Boo i hate apple.
Im gonna check back everyday till someone notices me.. Please help
wpa_supplicant question..
Ok so my question is.. if u mess up wpa_supplicant is there a way to restore it.. i guess my first attempt at modifying this failed and bricked my tab.. is there a way to get it back? is it part of the Official ROM found under this thread:
> [Official FIRMWARES] Galaxy Tab Plus P6200/P6210/SGH-T869
> Official ROM for P6210
> ----------------
> US Retail Version
> ----------------
> www .multiupload.com/SYSK9QMO6S
> Thanks to clubtech
I mean this file is kinda important and i wasnt able to get the wifi working after my first tab attempt.. and i believe i flashed the above rom (but not sure)
Did u find a way to restore the wpa_supplicant ?
Help develpers, I'd really like to be able to connect to ad hoc networks with my Galaxy tab plus. We need a modified wpa_supplicant that will work. I've tried the ones out now and they break the wifi. Reverting back to the original brings it back.
Bad News
There is a larger issue of Samsung not releasing the source code for their tabs that is driving this issue. The Gtab 7.0+ uses an Atheros WLAN chip so the wpa_supplicant file must be modified not only for the proper version of the OS but also for the proper networking hardware which in this case is that Atheros chip (Broadcomm is a more commonly used WLAN chip). Since Samsung is so far refusing to make public the source code for this tab (even just the source code that would cover the the networking drivers) it is not likely that a developer can or will even want to try and take this on. If there was another manufacturer that utilized the same Atheros 600 WLAN chip and were also decent enough to release their source code, then this could possibly still move forward without Samsung's assistance. Unfortunately such a tab from another manufacturer seems to just be a mythical creature. Gary9d has asked Samsung for the source code but so far has not had much luck. A petition (see link at the end of this post) has been started that asks Samsung to release their source code to developers. Samsung may turn a blind eye and deaf ear the the whole petiton movement but it is worth a try. I beleive Gary9d has another thread in this forum addressing his frustrating attempts to get Samsung to do the right thing. Last time I checked that thread there was a small glimmer of hope becuase a Samsung rep had reached out and established contact with him.
http://www.change.org/petitions/samsung-mobile-help-third-party-development-achieve-full-potential-of-purchased-devices
Damn! If i knew that a little earlier i just bought one, although iets a great device.
Hope someone can still figure this out. Thanks for sharing this i think im gonna stop
Searching for now.
Try Bluetooth
As an interim fix until someone makes a working WPA_Supplicant file, try using bluetooth to connect your P6210 to your phone. I'm using a Motorola Triumph phone with bluetooth connecting it to my P6210.
It works like a champ and uses less battery on the phone.
Yeah works for me to, i use foxfi on my xperia X10 with corresponding pdanet app on my galaxy tab + works great i must say!

I'm a total noob to android so please forgive the total lack of knowledge. I have the HTC Touch Pro 2, (european version) and I want to run my TF tethered via bluetooth off my phone. Can someone PLEASE post steby by step instructions, both for what needs to be done on the phone AND the TF in order to get this to work? I've been trying for a few days now and nothing. I can pair the phone with the tablet but it says "paired but not connected". It's frustrating.
Thanks for any help!
No chit it's frustrating. I've been trying myself with the same setup and N A D A!!! I'm no rocket scientist but daaaaammmmm why is this hard???
I had a diamond before my evo, and I know there were apps out there that did wifi tethering. Have you looked into that?
wifi tethering wastes much more power, why are ppl so ignorant of this? no one in the Android camp seems to be informed enough to ask for Bluetooth tethering, which is what bluetooth was largely designed for in the first place.
Windows Mobile had this for ages.

THANK YOU! Bluetooth people...BLUETOOTH! Anyways, looks like I can pretty much forget about this. Not many people have had any success. My friends iPhone tethers via bluetooth no prob, but then I'd have to buy the Iphoe and....hang out at startbucks.
I can't help you with windows mobile but I tether via bluetooth from my nexus one to my Transformer without issue with nothing needed at the transformer end.
If the device doing the tethering supports the profile the TF is expecting it just works (Pix or it didn't happen attached).
[Edit]
Looks like Android uses the PAN profile and Winmob may be exposing the older DUN profile
Thanks SilentMobius
I have gotten as far as the TP2 showing connected and tethered on the phone as well as the symbol on the Transformer, but it will just not transfer data. I'm asuming that any Android phone would be able to tether w/the Transformer? I'm with Sprint and guess I need 2 upgrade to the Evo or something.

Probably not I'm using http://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether/ for the bluetooth tethering (cm7 only have wifi built in) It has limited compatibility and only works on rooted phones, but it's been around since the G1 and is pretty stable.

Would you try "BT Files Transfer" for testing this function?
Not sure about WM6.1, but on my TD2 running WM6.5 it works fine. Pair up the phone and TF then run Internet Sharing on the phone (its in the Tools folder on mine). Select Bluetooth (PAN) from the dropdown instead of USB and hit connect. You should then be able to tether from the TF by selecting the phone from the bluetooth settings
Since my useless windows phone won't tether with my transformer and therefore I can't make use of my data plan and use my tablet outside of my house, I want to buy a new phone so that I can have data access anywhere I go. Do all android phones tether with HC flawlessly or is there something I should watch out for? I'd hate to spend the $$ and not have it do the very thing I bought it for.
Right now, I'm looking at the iPhone4 as I've confirmed that it will tether with my tablet no problem. However, I'm not much of an apple fan, and giving more money to Jobs does not appeal to me at all. My other choice is the Samsung Galaxy S2. Love this phone and it runs on Droid! Can someone confim for me that the OS on this phone would let me tether with the tablet? Assuming anyone here has a phone with similar OS.
Your help is greatly appreciated!

i use wireless tether in bluetooth mode to tether my TF to my phone, and works great. so depending on the phone you get, you might need a 3rd party tethering app (in my case wireless tether) and root, but for the most part, it should work.
I don't need a signature.
You do not need any programs to tether your phone to the TF. Doesn't even have to be rooted. Enable bluetooth on your phone. Then go into your TF, enable bluetooth. Pair your phone and TF together. Then click on the wrench icon on your TF and click on tether.
This is what I am doing on my DroidX to get online.
that wholy depends if your phone as built in profile for bluetooth tethering. my phone do not, which is why i need wireless tether to do it.
I don't need a signature.
I have built in BT tethering on my phone (I think; i see the option) and my TF and my phone both say "paired but not connected"....
How do I get them to connect?
Have any of you connected using wireless hotspot from an android phone to the TF?

Are you sure that you will be able to tether to the Transformer with an IPhone? I have a 3g IPad and have tried with both PDANet and My Wi 4 and have been unsuccessful.
I can tether to a Windows phone and an Iphone with the IPad and the two programs but not to the Transformer. I have tried Wifi- but the Transformer never detects the hotspot. I have also tried bluetooth- where I get a "tethered" notification on the Transformer but I also get "no internet connection".
I started a thread on this a couple of days back:

I also have Wireless Tether for my Verizon Fascinate. I am using version 2.0.5-Pre9. I set the app in Bluetooth mode and it set itself to discoverable. Well, I already previously paired my device so I just turned on Bluetooth on the Transformer and clicked the wrench next to the Fascinate. Unfortunately, I only have the option to rename the device. No connections are being made. Any suggestions?
If we can't connect via ad-hoc wifi or bluetooth, is there an infrastructure wifi app that we can use?

Transformer (as all Honeycomb devices) only has problems with ad-hoc networks. If you get a new phone, that is able to tether an actual Wifi hotspot you should be fine.
Your Windows Phone should be able to tether ad-hoc networks right? I made a guide how to enable this on your Transformer. Only thing is, you need to be rooted. If you want to check out, go here:

That is so annoying!!!!
Why won't the Transformer connect to an IPad 3g created hotspot??!!
My laptop will, an IPhone will, my Windows 6.5 (sorry) phone will.
Why won't the Transformer!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Is it an "android" thing?
I'm able to bluetooth tether using the latest wifi android tether (version 2..not the beta v3) with my dell streak to my TF, if i use wifi tether it will kill my streak's battery in now time..using bluetooth might be a little slower but my dell streak battery last 3-4 times more...
I'm not been able to pair it with my epic 4g tho

I guess then your ipad probably creates an ad-hoc connection, which honeycomb doesn't like, as i said before. It's just a suggestion though, don't know anything about the ipad. If so, try the solution i posted earlier.

I rooted my Samsung Galaxy Tab 7 (Verizon) and somehow corrupted something and now 3G doesn't work. Wifi is fine. I posted on this forum for some help and although my post got plenty of views, there were no replies. So:
In attempts to get 3G back, do you think upgrading to the JQ1 Gingerbread ROM would be a good idea?
I need Wifi and would like Netscape and Skype to continue to work. I think everything else on my tablet will be fine or easily replaced...
Thanks,

do not waste your time rooting your archos 101 or any other android tablet in hopes of using your android phone like samsung galaxy s because it is ad-hoc
and no matter what you read on here..it does not work. no one can tell you how to do it or what to do because they themselfs have not done it. it will not connect it will only waste your time. also do not get fooled into thinking that by using wifi tether 3.1 or 3.2 beta will get you infrastructure as this is also a pack of lies. i did this followed what (simple steps) and my archos 101 does not even find it. so much for that idea.
so unless someone can prooth it working from a galaxy s to a android tablet...it will remain a myth.
i have successfully connected my Archie 101IT to my galaxy s2 using Wi-Fi hot spot. Standard android functionality. No rooting etc required
i have tried so many ways...sometime it will stick on finding ip address or it will say connected i will leave it a few min...it is showing wifi signal yet i still can not use the internet...so all the people who said they have done it with there galaxy samsung 1 not 2 as i have the first one, are not helping
what are the settings ? no one here knows how to do it...yet they say they have done it

Hi all,
I know that Asus Transformer can work with iPhone (file sharing and etc.) via its USB cable...
Though, is it possible to connect the Asus TF to the internet via iPhone USB cable & Hotspot feature?
Thanks in advance.
If your service provider allows it, you can use the personal hotspot feature on the iphone to share the connection over bluetooth
No cable required
Re:
Hi Mr. Carlvk,
I know this feature already.
I know that iPhone can provide Internet even through the device's WiFi abilities...
But I'm wondering about a way to provide network communication via the iPhone cable - which take less battery from both devices.
Best regards,
it is possible http://giagio.com/wiki/moin.cgi/iPhoneEthernetDriver on my gentoo linux it work fine with my iphone3gs .. its possible to compile this for android too

Thans sir.
Now would have to learn how to compile source code to Android...
I'm not so familliar with compiling methods yet.
Thanks though!!
I was wondering about this a while back and worked out that the TF charges the phone anyway so no battery savings are made on the TF.
I had a look around and picked up a second hand galaxy android phone (cheaP)and use that when I need more data/battery. I generaly have several bits of kit around with me anyway so one more is no biggie.
I'm sure you have also come to the conclusion that most tethering software is for connecting android mobiles to windows/PC.
I was unable to find a solution may your search be more fruitful.
