can't tether - please help indentify the problem - HTC Sensation

Hi all,
Im having problems with tethering with my sensation and it is frustrating me. I've tried it with 2 laptops and also with my desktop and still no success. The wireless devices do recognize the phone with no issue and showing me full reception, but yet i cant browse and it seems something is blocking it.. is it something that has to do with the phone or is it that my cell provider blocking it?
here is a picture to demonstrate the problem. As you can see, the phone is identified with full reception and telling me it is connected, but theres the yellow mark which indicate a problem and it says "no internet access" although i am connected.
It is like that with every device i try to tether

P.S
If it matters, then im using the Eleganicia sense 4 rom although this problem also happened with sense 3.6 roms as well

shame there are no replies as i'm having the same problem. it also happens with bluetooth tethering. All connects/pairs fine but no internet. I have mainly been trying to use this with my Nexus 7 for when i'm out and about. If it helps, i'm with Orange UK.
Any help would be appreciated!

Hi,
In order to set up tethering,I went to settings/more/tethering & portable hotspot/portable WiFi hotspot settings/ and then set my password and SSID
Turn on hotspot and mobile data,find my device,connected using the password,and everything worked.
Not sure if you missed any of those steps.

iPhone WiFi vs. WM

Hi All,
A friend of mine got himself a iPhone.
Without customs builds, SDKs, etc... I still think the home
cooked builds for WM are much better.
One thing I envy is that apparently his WiFi is alway on.
Having that on it connects to all the networks it can
saving/speeding lots of data for professional use of
a mobile device (I use it as my mobile office).
What is most desirable is that his battery doesnt
seem to run out any more faster.
I tried to use once with my WM and my device asked for
more juice in 3 hours.
Is there a driver / app that can use the wifi hardware as iPhone does ??
some kind of passive WiFi mode ???
Cheers,
Smartin

I also have a friend with an iPhone right here with me and his does not stay connetcted when the phone is put to sleep mode, well it will stay connected for 30 seconds and then shut down. I verified this by pinging his phone from my PC, after 30 seconds of sleep - no answer and my router lost it from its lists of clients. BUT it was wery quick to aquire the signal after waking up. I then set the IP lease to 3 minutes and put the iPhone to sleep for 5 minutes just to be sure and then it took the usual 5-7 seconds to aquire IP again so it seems to me its using som kind of quick connect settings as long as the lease doesn´t expire.

Tethering Problem on Mac

Okay. So as part of a bet, I got all A's and B's on my final Report Card, and my mom bought me a Mac. Everything was good and all was fine, until I left the mac to download and Install some system updates to applications like garageband and such. Normally, the only form of internet I have is Tetheration from my G1. I was using the Wireless Tether and had left the house and left it on to Update. When I got back, I tried to go on my FaceBook, and it wouldn't load. I'm good with this kind of stuff, so I restarted the Tether, the phone, the laptops AirPort, and the laptop itself. I tried, and it wouldn't connect. now I don't know if this is a problem from my phone, or from the laptop. I tried to connect the Tether to my brothers Windows Vista, and it worked. I also don't know how to use USB Tether on a Mac. If anybody could help, that'd be awesome. I have a T-Mobile G1.
*UPDATE FROM THE LIBRARY!*
Okay, so it's not a problem with the mac, it's a problem with the Tether, but no matter how I try to use it, it won't work. Any help?
BTW, I do not say this is a Mac problem that only Macs have, it is that Mac is helping me solve my problems, when my old Windows (that is now my brothers) went around it. I love you Maccy. (That's right, I named my Mac <3)
What mac is it?
It's the MacBook. Not the pro, just the MacBook.

Phone drops signal on wake up/unlock

Almost every time I wake up my phone it completely loses radio signal and I cant get or receive calls. Happens on 3 different roms and radios. It started after I changed my cellular carrier so it may be related. It may also happen why the phone sleep but doesn't seem to anymore since the last flash and modem: sky-ics 4.2F with uclf5 modem, also mohans kernel 1.5.
I did tons of searching at the closest thing I found is a nexus issue which is related to the kernel smart reflex function which with my limited knowledge couldn't find in our kernel files so I could use a script to turn it off.
And ideas?
Update: I tried using my brothers sim card in my phone(he has a different carrier) and mine and his phone, his phone is a dumb phone. On the skyrocket there were no signal loss during the few hours I tested it. On his phone I couldn't see signal loss as well tho its harder with no log.
I'm guessing the skyrocket and the carrier are conflicting in the software/maybe hardware level. I don't have enough knowledge to know how its possible tho.
It never happened on my old carrier, and I'll be happy if anyone got a clue how to help me find the issue.
Oh also for a while after I returned my sim to the skyrocket the issue was gone until I restarted it.
Here's a picture that will show the wake+screen on and signal loss correlation:

Some app named System tries to connect various IPs...need help in figuring it out

I got a Moto G phone running Oreo. I have a firewall installed, and its logs show an app with the name "System" trying to connect to various AWS hosted addresses. The phone is not rooted. I am trying to find out which process this System actually is, and what is its purpose. I am trying to somehow capture some traffic and find something.
If anyone knows what exactly this is and whether I should be worried or not, please let me know.
Here are some of them:

I found some more information using logcat:
[ 10-19 17:12:33.467 1229: 1309 E/LocSvc_xtra2 ]
connect:204] connect to 54.230.93.211 failed
This is one of the IPs that System process is trying to connect. Some googling tells that this is Location Service being used probably. I have GPS turned off completely when I don't need it. I have also given access to GPS only to OpenMaps application which isn't running at the moment. All google apps are in disabled state.
I also noticed that these connection attempts happen every 5-6 minutes.
I cannot use strace as don't have root. I am trying to route the traffic from the phone through my PC to be able to capture network traffic.

How to see the devices that are connected to my hotspot in Android device?

So, I've been looking all over the internet for 2 years (approx.) from time to time for this query.
My device: I have a Motorola X(4) device which came with near stock Android.
My question: how can I see who is connected to my hotspot.
What have I tried so far: I see apps in playstore for scanning Wi-Fi and not what I want (which is to see devices connected to hotspot). I've search for web with no helpful answer, everyone seems to confuse about Wi-Fi scanner. I don't want a Wi-Fi scanner
In few answers I see people showing steps to do this, but I don't see the last option 'View Who is Connected' in my device. I have attached screenshots for reference.

Hi there,
Although motorola is close to stock Android, they have the annoying manner of removing very little, yet useful features like that. You're supposed to have a menu to see what device are connected, like me (I'm using OxygenOS, and even with their "overlay" they left the feature).
Unfortunately I don't know how to help you on this one. When I had a motorola (Moto E 2015 LTE) it didn't have the "enable wireless display" option for screen casting m. I've search a long time, and finally found out about that annoying manner motorola has. The solution was to modify one or two line in the build.prop file.
Hope you'll find out one day
