[SOLVED] WiFi tether in Sense 4.0 + ICS - HTC Sensation

NEED HELP !
I hv a rooted Sensation running Insercoin v2.0 (Sense 4.0 + ICS). The problem is "WiFi Tethering" is not working and it is a known bug I knw.
Thats why I need help in finding any app out there with the help of which I can use the Wifi Hotspot feature again... So if any body know any app like that, please suggest me.

I think I have the same problem. I installed darkforest 6.3.2. Anyone know how to fix this?

Ok, created a ad-hoc network with my laptop and tried to connect to it with my Nexus S (after I flashed the patch) and it founds the network but can't connect to it... says "Obtaining IP..." for a minute or two and then shows "Disconnected".

Didn't work on AOSP Android 2.3.4 ROM - WiFi stopped finding networks completely.
If it helps, I flashed SupeAosp 2.3.4 ROM and it worked. not sure if it's the script or the ROM feature as it known to have the Ad Hoc fix already installed...

Wind Users and MIUI!

Hello fellow Wind Mobile users,
Is anyone here using MIUI? If so, would you be kind enough to post your /system/etc/apns-conf.xml file?
Also, does mms AND data work for you guys? I'm having a hard time getting it working..
I can get you the cm 7 one if you want. Mms working great here. Data too. Almost 6mbps dl and 2 up.

That'd be awesome! I'll try flashing the CM7 one onto MIUI. Should work just fine since MIUI is based on CM7.

There must be some huge issue with MIUI and Wind, I'm trying the new Dev's port of it now, hopefully this one works!
Works for me
I'm using version 1.11.4 miui port by Whitehawkx and data works great! Only issue i have is it keeps going in to airplane mode randomly and staying there only fix is reboot. Very annoying. But do tell if you can get data to work on the optimized one available on these forums!
Using same version as epicsquare and data working great.

Do you have the airplane mode thing too? Where it randomly goes in to airplane mode, and you can't turn it off except to restart it?
No issues with airplane mode for me but i remember some users in his Rootzwiki thread talking about problems like that. Cant remember if it was the same issue as you thou.

barqers, how did you get data to work?
i checked doublechecked apn settings, entered my own ones, reset to default apn - went to airplaine mode and back.
5 bars reception - no data

Yeah I've seen T-Mobile users using that one no problem. But then for some reason Wind users are having difficulty with it. I think there might be an internal setting making it specific to T-Mobile users. Not 100% sure though.

Yeah I was looking at those a long time ago. Thing is, I had it set up and working fine on Weapon G2X, but then as soon as I go to MIUI it doesn't work.

Basically what I did was flash Weapon G2X, grab the /system/etc/apns-conf.xml file, install MIUI, replace the apns-conf.xml file with the one from Weapon G2X, reboot, reset to factory defaults, then when I rebooted it had the apns setup.

For Canadian Wind Mobile users on the latest MIUI version, if your APN exists but no data connection, please set the authentication of your APN to "None" explicitly to have a try.

[Help] Can not install apps on the Play store.

Hi everyone, my setup as the signature below. This is the first time I got this kind of error.
I can choose an app to download, then it will be downloaded like normal. However when it reached 100%, it stucked at that forever but did not do the installing step.
I tried to clear the market cache, data and even remove the google account then readd. But it still did not work.
Could someone please guide me on this. Thanks very much!
EDIT 1: today I cannot download any apps. It got stuck at the very first step. I did not download any more?!
EDIT 2: I just switched to mobile network and I could download any apps that I want. After that, I connected to wifi network to see whether the issue was solved or not. Unfortunately, I still could not download any apps through wifi
EDIT 3: The last observation from this issue. I use my laptop as a hotspot and so my phone can download any apps normally in the Play store.
To sum up, this bug only occurs with the direct wireless network connection.

[Q] Help - HTC One-X ATT CleanRom 5 Wifi Issue

Hi,
I just flashed cleanrom 5 on to my htc one-x. Love it, but one thing is driving me nuts. I have a 5ghz and two 2.4ghz wireless networks in my house. After flashing the device will only connect to the 5ghz network. It can see the 2.4ghz networks, but will not connect to either of them. All the other devices in my home have no issue connecting to either of them. I've checked the advanced Wifi settings and network is set to Auto, so it should work.
Please help or I will be forced to go back to version 4.5
Thanks,
Dan

[Q] Sensation Video Recording Freezes !!!!

Hi everybody,
I'm kind of a silent user in this forum & never had an issue with my sensation 4g,but now, a weird problem happened when I tried to record a video,when I hit record ,the camera app just freezes & doesn't record a thing & all the onscreen buttons don't work ,also the back button doesn't work & to get out of the camera I have to hit home, I end up with a corrupt video file.
I've searched for a week but no luck & it really bugs me.
any help is appreciated.
I'm running Android revolution hd 6.6.2,ICS 4.0.3 ,Sense 3.6.
thanks,
did you try to to wipe cache+dalvik?
no,but I'll try now.
thanks for your reply.
just wiped Cache+dalvic,didn't help .
hmm... only one thing i can tell you now
reflash your rom again with full wipe
do a nandroid backup first just in case
or if you have patience wait for someone else to provide you better solution
thanks ,that's what I was afraid of, it actually worked fine before & I don't know why it stopped working,I hate reflashing the rom cause all my business apps are on my phone now & it's pain setting up all those apps again,so I guess I'll wait for someone to come up with a fix.
thanks again
