Wifi tethering - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727

Hey folks,
This has stumped me since I started flashing custom roms and I'm now at wits end and am begging for someone out there to shed some light on this...
For some strange reason, I can't get Wifi tethering to work on any custom roms. I've tried Embryo, Pacman roms with no luck. I've checked, rechecked and rechecked my access point names for Rogers and the only thing that happens is that I can get devices to connect to the Wifi hotspot but no data can transfer.
However, if I do a full wipe and load stock Rogers JB rom, my tethering works fine.
I've included pictures of my settings. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!!!

Put the script in system/etc/init.d
Holy [email protected]! It worked! A thousand thank yous!!!
I've abandoned really good roms because tethering didn't work and it is one of the things I use everyday...
Still can't believe it...

Glad to hear it!

Discussion of WIP-ROM - HTC Sense Froyo Android 2.2.1

Post Questions here for the HTC Sense Froyo Android 2.2.1 ROM. Please do not clog up the dev thread with individual issues. I.E. If it should be obvious issues, and your the only one having it, it's an individual issue!
Also this is for any general questions you have for Zen, Beezy420 and nfx on the rom.
I vet error at line 93 saying write at boot.img or something like that.

Ok. I don't know I'm the only one with this issue and haven't read about it on the forums, here is the question: how can I activate dtmf in order to access bank accounts, etc dialing manually from my hero?
Thanks.

I have seen weird things like that happen before on other roms. Try redownloading and if that doesn't work, flash another Rom and then wipe and retry this one.

Are you guys updating the list of outstanding issues on the Dev thread?
(meaning once the WIFI's resolved, then GPS and camera will be the primary issues with this rom?)
Also, I've read about issues with the mobile networking... is that a rom issue, or a kernel issue? (waiting to try it, but this is my primary phone and really can't afford to foul it up...)
way to go..this will hopefully help out the with clogged up ROM threads.
i just picked up a hero and probably gona flash it to metro, been trying out a couple of the sense roms, but between the droid and hd2 i got used to froyo. im kinda curious as to how much of a performance boost it will be. i know it did wonders for the droid. hope this gets finished soon
Just flashed this again for the first time since this project first started and man, it works 10x better
And on the camera? Holy crap! I love it! I don't care if it get's fixed myself
Reminds me of that music video...
http://www.mtv.com/videos/a-ha/7846/take-on-me.jhtml
OMG 80's flashback! haha.
..does anyone else notice their 3g seems to be a whole cry faster with this rom? heh. hope I don't get booted off the network for being a bandwidth hog
The only thing keeping me from flashing this again is the camera issue. As soon as the camera is fixed I'll be happy to use this again as my daily use Rom

Flashed this again, camera is sorta important but meh i'll live till its fixed

Wifi Works!
I rarely ever use wifi myself... That is unless the market wants to act retarded, or I wanna watch some youtube.
BTW don't mind the rest of this post here. just posting so I can easily... err.. have the least aggrivating way anyways of copying the command and pasting into the terminal
chmod 677 /system/etc/dhcpcd/dhcpcd-run-hooks
anyone else having trouble with super user on this rom? I keep getting permission denied errors, no notification to allow su rights....

Go to the superuser apk on your phone and it will say a new version is out and to reboot.
Reboot into recovery and flash the new superuser file.

Flash a ROM, lose 3G? Help please.

I'm having an issue changing ROMs. I was originally a CM user, but I've been running Evervolv for the last few months. I decided to flash CM again yesterday. Everything seemed to work fine for a bit, until I turned off the wifi and realized I wasn't getting a 3G signal.
I tried rebooting, reflashing, messing with the settings for quite awhile and nothing seemed to help. Eventually I decided to wipe again and flash a Sense ROM. I STILL could not get a 3G signal. After much experimenting I wiped again and flashed Evervolv back onto the phone. Much to my dismay, no 3G.
Finally I restored my nandroid backup I made before I loaded CM and surprisingly everything works just fine again and the 3G is back to normal. Any ideas what I am doing wrong? I'm not a noob at flashing ROMs, I've had a few different ones on the Shift and tried many on the Hero before that, but I must be making a silly mistake somewhere.
If anyone has any ideas or can point me in the right direction I'd really appreciate it, thanks!
Unsure but evervovle had messed up my phone to when I first got my phone, i had to RUU just to reset... So I'm gonna say unless someone else offers a viable option, hit the 2.2 RUU

Thanks thronnos. If no one else seems to know the cause of this I'll give that a shot.
You said you nand back and now 3G is working.. So if you flash a fresh ROM now does 3G continue working or only while using the nand??
I tried to flash another ROM this morning, 3G still didn't work. Had to nand back again to get it to work.

I think your best option would be to run the ruu.

Thanks for your help guys, everything's working great again!
For anyone else who runs across this problem, going back to the RUU and rerooting your phone WILL fix this issue.
The ruu is a great tool to have. Glad you got it worked out

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.
Thank you !!

Thank you! Unfortunately it didn't work
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.

Here's a pdf with some info on how to configure all the settings. You might already have everything setup correctly but i thought it might be worth a look.

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

I noticed you updated your baseband. maybe this is the cause of the airplane glitch? can you point me in the right direction of a baseband update guide compatible with wind?

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.

[Q] XBSAVX3D - No connection with wifi

I am on xbsalls XBSAVX3D custom rom and when i try and use wifi everything connects properly, but when i try and use it at all it says its not connected at all, ive had this problem with the 28b rom too, im fine with stock rom though. Any help is appreciated
I'm on XBSAVX3D as well but my wifi is working fine as I'm answering you right now with it I did have an issue earlier that I was watching youtube on data and then connected to wifi later...said no network connection. No idea why but a simple reboot fixed for me. Hope it helped. Also I'm running a different kernel with unlocked bootloaders instead of the stock kernel that came with the rom. No idea if that makes any difference or not.

Lol i dont have data so wifi is my only option haha and rebooting doesnt help and im using unlocked bootloaders and ive tried iodaks kernel and Pesach85s kernel each with the same result
Sorry my bad I totally got backwards on that. If you are in the US like me, did you alter the build.prop target country from EU to US and flash the V30B baseband followed by a factory reset? If so have you tried to flash V28B baseband instead? If those options don't work my friend I'm clueless.

Gs3 no WiFi after root

I rooted my gs3 today with no problem. I have root access and CWM installed. I came to find that I cannot turn WiFi on. Did a quick search and seems that I'm not alone. If I flash a new rom do you think WiFi will work? If not I need some suggestions. Thanks !!

Your wifi should be working fine after rooting your phone weird it isn't. You could try flashing a new rom that will probably make it work again.

I read somewhere that I used a wrong version of gs3 toolkit. Evidently it happened to someone else. But you think a new rom should enable it to work?

Oh I see, yes I am quite sure a new rom will make it work again
Sent from a galaxy far away.
Depending on just how wrong the toolkit you used to root was, I'd suggest completely wiping and returning to stock and hoping you didn't do something really, really bad - but only time will tell.
