USB Tethering - the other way round: possible? - Android General

Hello guys,
i know, it sounds a bit strange, but is it possible to use the internet access from a PC via USB-connection on an android smartphone? Didn't found anything about that. Thanks in advance for all helpful answers.
Greetz,
Dosentod

this is often called reverse-tethering...
...you can search about this.
Some devices have it natively.

Yeah there is a way,here you go http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1371345

Thanks alot!:good:

On sense roms its called Internet-passthrough

SONOS controller ?

Hi,
has anyone ever thought about developing a program for controlling SONOS via the pocketpc ? Should be pretty obvious, but I've searched the web without luck
Thanks for any info,

+1 for that one
Somethings available for you!
There is VersaZones Mobile that is available which allows you to do this.
Version 3.0 seems to be having some trouble running on teh latest phones so you will need to test to see if it works.
Search for "VersaZones Mobile" in google and you will find the good links - I guess it is freeware.

[Q] (HTC Ozone) Wifi sharing for mobile 6.5?

I read at somepoint that HTC may be releasing some form of a wifi sharing app for HTC smartphones. At the end of the post that I was reading, there was a cab that installed CMWifiSharing.exe to my Windows directory. However, it looked like that app was for touchphones, sine I couldn't interact with the UI in anyway.
My question is, is there any free application out there that enables wifi sharing for an HTC Ozone on Windows Mobile 6.5?
i'm not sure if any of them support non-touchscreen devices.. but you should try WMWifiRouter and ICS either way.
hope this works for you.

Already tried WMWifiRouter, worked ok, but I'd rather not pay for it if there's already a free alternative out there (or in the making). What is this ICS you speak of?
it's a simple app designed to pretty much do the same as WMWifiRouter.. but with much less options.
look for it.. it's easy to find.

Do you mean this?
I downloaded it to my phone, tried running it, and it crashed right away with an error saying "NotSupportedException at Microsoft.AGL.Common.MISC.HandleAr() ..."
I already have a newer Compact Framework than the one ICS requires. So what can I do?
Edit: Just looking at the screenshot for this program makes it seem it's for a completely different mobile operating system. Reading around on the Internet a bit, it seems like that error occurs when an application tries to create a button that isn't supported on the phone.
Got any other ideas?
unfortunately, no. I haven't used any other wifi sharing software other than these 3. If i were you, i'd try doing it thru winmo. create an AdHoc connection in your native WM environment and try connecting to it. You can probably find many threads concerning the creation and sharing of an AdHoc connection in the forum.
let me know if you managed to get it.

I'm not finding any adhoc tutorials that will work on my phone. Any other ideas?
Any ideas or other suggestions out there?
Bump :/
Even a ROM flash would be ok, I just don't know what I need.
Bump... again.

Wake up Android!

Hey guys,
due to thousands of post according to Wake up my PC I wasn´t able to find a possibly already existing posting to what I need.
I bought a Lenovo n308 Android Device and need to wake this up / start it remote because it shall be integrated in the kitchens´ wall .
Is there any chance / possibility to do a wake on lan (for example) on this device from my pc or another phone?
If my question is not clear enough let me know and I´ll try to explan it better
Thanks in advance
greets
Heba
BTW:
As this http://forum.xda-developers.com/general/xda-assist/wake-device-t2853187 was posted in the wrong section it can be deleted:
I've read somewhere that you can, but it's about your computer's LAN card, it needs to be compatible.
And if u need an app able to do that, Splashtop can help you and works well.
ok thanks - so i can boot my android device using the splashtop?

[Q] Using Bluetooth in Recovery

Hey all,
I'm not sure if this is the right place to be posting my question so if the mods could move me accordingly that would be great. Anyways, my question is does anybody know if there is a way to enable bluetooth devices while in recovery? I'm developing for the Xiaomi MiBox Mini and there are 0 usb ports so not only can I not connect a USB controller like a keyboard or mouse, but I cannot connect to a PC either. If anyone has any experience with this all help is appreciated.

The recovery would have to support bluetooth and have it auto enabled.
There is very little about your device on XDA.
I will request that this thread be moved to Android Stick Computers, where there are similar devices.

There is very little about it anywhere, but I feel that with a bit of development there could be a lot of potential with this little cube. I feel that the android stick forum would also be more appropriate. Also in regards to your first comment, is there anyway I could enable bluetooth on the stock recovery? I've managed to extract it but I'm unfamiliar with making individual modifications to it (eg. turning on services) or will I need to compile a third party recovery for my device such as TWRP to accomplish this. Any help is appreciated. Thank you.
