A little more info wouldnt hurt. Are you stock or running a custom ROM? Did you change anything at all between working/not working. Have you tried rebooting the phone and other devices? You can also try changing settings such as SSID or encryption.
I restarted all devices including my phone. Running synergy 1.7. Also hit refresh on other devices when searching for wifi but no bueno. Didnt change anything at all just tried to use it lately and nothing is finding it

Make sure your device profile is set to Generic ICS/JB(wlan0). I'm pretty sure that is the one that eschelon recommended. Also sometimes you do have to start the service, stop it, start it again. Mine acts up like that every now and then.

Anyone else experiencing issues when downloading apps? I sometimes get network issues and other times I can't download marketplace apps. It says downloading, downloading... But doesn't download until I cancel it or restart the phone.

I had the same problem but now sorted. Type in google the problem and you will get an answer. I think you have to clear google talk or google mail storage in applications, then manage applications all in settings. Hope this helps.

It's rooted with 023, using instructing from this site.
I have the same problem can't download in market after i used titanium app to uninstall some google stuff from my phone. Rooted last night btw thanks everyone for their help.
You have to reinstall gtalkservice.apk and Talk.apk. Follow this thread for instruction

Really, but how does gtalk & talk relate to marketplace downloading/networking issues? Just wondering.

All of the Google related software is integrated into your account which in turn is how you purchase/use the market.
As for your issue, have you made sure your APN settings are correct since rooting your device? Make sure you've done that. As well, check the original root thread for a market fix in case that's your issue as well.
Edit: I just saw you're using Rogers. Make sure you use the x10a fix for the market. Also note that when I applied the fix, it took over 24 hours and clearing the cache several times before it started working properly. I really strongly recommend you check your APN as well though. Rooting/debranding the x10a from the Rogers network clears out the APN settings and most have had to put them in manually.

I don't know....I just know that I couldn't download anymore from the market and the reinstall of those 2 .apk fixed the issue.
weird...

I faced it once long back .. but after that I rooted my phone for almost 3 or 4 times changing the firmwares and then the problem just disappeared.
Yea, APN setting entered correctly. I might just remove them and enter them again through. Thx for all the suggestions folks.

I since narrowed it down to my wifi connection, because it never seems to happen while on 3G. Could be something to do with my router settings. I'll try a static IP again, but I don't think that will help much.
Anyone have any suggestions?

Hello. I am really new to all this and I have a problem that I can't seem to find similar posts explaining or having the same issue. I have the supercm7 v1 rom on my infuse4g and the mobile hotspots won't work. A user can connect to it and we even saw that he could get an IP address and DNS was working. But no data, cannot load any webpages or anything. I looked at the apn settings and played around with them with different suggestions with no luck. Any ideas? Thank you

Not sure if i'm any help at all, but every time ive used wifi tethering, i need to load something on my phone after enabling tethering in order for the inernet to work on the computer. it never seems to work correctly until i use data on the phone after turning it on and connecting.
Freeze tether app in titbu. Done.

So I installed open garden tether and it works fine that way. Except for the fact that my wife's infuse stock doesn't see the ssid from a foot away.??? My computers and other friends cell's can connect, weird...

Need I repeat.. and slightly mod..
ROOT as you said that you had done. You can root stock. Then freeze or uninstall tethering manager in titanium backup. Done. Make sure you have a visible SSID

Ok i got its working. So here is my fix incase any one else has this issue.
I pulled up the app click the wifi button to turn on tethering and As the screen was up saying its was turning on i hit the back arrow to back out. Then turned tethering off and back on, boom it works
Weird fix but good to know just incase

This helped my problem too, thanks
Sometimes wifi tethering is inconsistent for me too. I usually try switching profiles between generic ics to galaxy nexus cdma/lte.
Also lately I've been using the widget to switch on and off tethering rather than opening up the app and so far its been working more consistently

yeah i've been getting random lag spikes/dc's for like 20 seconds. Pretty annoying wish i knew how to fix it
OK, here it goes.
I have two Infuse phones. One is running 4.1 and the other is on android 4.2. I noticed that probably (it is my guess) due to the merge not being full or complete yet the Wi-Fi tether is not working.
I tried using Foxfi but this app crashes as soon as I enable it. So my question is, has anyone had the same issue or knows a workaround?
I read a lot of posts on the internet regarding this but nothing really related to 4.2 and most of solutions are using an external APP. Should I be just patient and wait for the full merge?
Am I doing to many questions? xD Thanks in advance.

Thetering in 4.2 works fine on my infuse, flash again and do the 3 wipes before and after flash.... Maybe this work for you, maybe not but how knows....

That's exactly what I'm doing right now.
Edit: Don't know what's goin. It says "turning hotspot on", but sits there and never turns it on. :S
I reflashed from scratch twice and this single feature doesn't work, all other things are working perfectly, but the tethering isn't. What's funny is that all over the internet you're going to find similar issues on 4.2, that's why I wonder if it's not related to that not being stable yet on 4.2.

I need to do some testing when I get home, but I think I found the root of my issue.

I stumbled on this app yesterday, and it was suggested that I post it here. It's a quick easy "fix" for WiFi tethering on these ROMs. In the settings I had to tick "Skip wpa_supplicant" to get it to work, but so far so good. I hope it works for y'all.

If you go ape**** and download a bunch of data, or use it all the time, most likely they will probably catch it.

That's odd I've used barnacle in the past on other phones and it works well only I tried it on my a2 and it didn't work perhaps your using a different version?
Edit: nope same results that I got with the play store version.
Thank you though.

I don't recall having any issues with this except with my tablet detecting it after it updated to ICS. I haven't used this in a while as I have been on NUMA for over a month. I'll reinstall PA or something of the like this weekend and see if I can find an answer for you.:thumbup:
