[Q] How to enable ad hoc wi-fi in ICS? - Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi
I'm trying to use the internet connection from my ubuntu on my Android devices. When I create a new ad hoc wireless network in ubuntu, it shows up on my tablet (Asus SL101) running Android 3.2.1 but it doesn't show up on my Nexus S running latest CyanogenMod 9 nightly.
I know this has something to do with the wpa_supplicant. What do I have to change to enable ad hoc networks on my phone with ICS?
I've found a few solutions but they are made for Gingerbread...

[Q] Ad Hoc in Gingerbread for Nexus One

Forgive me for this evergreen question but here it goes:
Is that possible to enable detection of Ad Hoc networks (e.g., an Ad Hoc hot spot, initiated on Windows 7, or an Ad Hoc hot spot via the Wi-Reach 3G modem)
on Nexus One with UNROOTED (!!!) official Gingerbread?
Or saying this differently: is there a way to make the wpa_supplicant from the "Oxygen v2.0-RC7 for desire" working on the unrooted Nexus One?
Many thanks in advance!

[Q] Portable Wifi hotspot software

Had been using aNetShare on my rooted HTC Hero to setup wifi hotspots and has worked fine with laptops etc.. but seems the transformer cant see it - I guess its because its an ad-hoc network and not supported ?
Just wondering if anyone can recommend an app I can run off my phone that does work using somthing other than an ad-hoc network - or is this not possible ?
Many Thanks !!!
This prob wont help but the personal wifi hotspot option in android 2.2 works fine but android tether or barnicle don't seem to work.
Doesn't PdaNet support bluetooth tethering? Is that an option for tethering the Transformer?

[Q] can see ad hoc but can't connect

hey guys,
I'm trying to connect to my own ad hoc connection that i set up on my laptop.
( i want to use my laptop as a wifi hotspot for fast internet)
My phone is a HD2 running the hyperdroid cm7 2.1.0 ROM (android 2.3.4)

what it does:
It's adding my connection to the rememberred ones. but it's always out of range
the same connection gets found again but it doesn't recognise it to be the same as the other one.
i can keep connecting to the new ones but the whole process starts over again and over time i have an unlimited of the same connections as remembered but out of range..
any one knows what i did wrong or what i should change to make it work?

[Q] Connecting to Ad Hoc network

I setup my laptop with an Ad Hoc mesh network and connect to it with two other laptops; however my stock HTC ONE S doesn't see the Ad Hoc network. What can I do?
It appears that vanilla android does not support Ad-Hoc networks.

Various posts claim using a custom "wifi_supplicant" fixes the problem.
Is there a ad hoc supported custom wifi_supplicant file for HTC One S running 4.0 or 4.1?

[Q] How to enable Ad hoc wi-fi connections support?

Hello!
I just wanted to know if there's any way to connect to ad hoc wi-fi networks (created on a computer running Linux, Windows or Mac Os X) from a rooted Moto G.
I know that most Android devices have this feature disabled by default (they don't even show the SSID in the network manager list). I've founded some workarounds for other devices that I still didn't try on the Moto G. They modify some code on the Android system (or use an specific app that does the same changes) or suggest the use of Custom Roms.
Does anybody know if there's any chance to do it without using Connectify or other similar apps? Is there a Rom for the Moto G with this feature enabled?
Thanks!
