[SOLVED] AdHoc Wifi on LG Optimus One P500

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1170232
Someone needs to port this for our LG Optimus One P500.
We all know that Adhoc doesn't work on Android. I've also seen a few thread recommending the use of alternative software on the PC. But one must understand that these software do not support all WiFi adapters and/or need specific OS in order to operate.
If one of our dev can port or make a fresh one, we could vote to make it a "Sticky".
I request you comment your opinion about this.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Download the "wpa_supplicant" from the link below and replace it with the one in your rom. It should work.

Connectify requires Win7, I'm running WinXP. Also, connectify does not support all adapters.
You can checkout the list of adapters which supports connectify:
http://support.connectify.me/home?page=2
Also, was referring to Ad-Hoc, not "Access Point".

Maybe this can help you as it is xp compatible.

Will definitely give it a try . Anyway, about the "G3 AdHoc Wifi Thread" by "jinxskore", it supports even old onboard laptop adapters which is why we definitely need this. You don't need to download any additional application/software....it will detect the AdHoc like an access point which is absolutely cool. Google could have added that with their updates but God knows why not.
I still think one of our dev should make one. I would if I could but I just started using android a month back and rooted yesterday.

Thanks a ton. Before I proceed, is it possible to just copy it through "Root Explorer" instead of flashing it? This is because I'm on stock 2.2.2 rooted and planning to stick with it for a while.
Also, is there a post dedicated to this particular "supplicant"? Would be really handy if there is one. If not, you could make a sticky
Okay, replaced the wpa_supplicant using "Root Explorer" and YES I can confirm it is working. Thanks a ton.

Here, I was referring to "PC-to-Phone" wireless connection which allows internet sharing from the PC to the Phone (not Phone-to-PC) without using any particular OS (eg. Win7) or PC Software (eg. Connectify).
Take a look at the link in the original thread and you'll get the idea of what the post is all about.

problem
so i am able to see the adhoc network i have at home, but now my issue is i am apparently unable to connect to said network. i click connect and it just dismisses the prompt, but with no change to my connection state. ive rebooted the phone many times, disabled data to ensure nothing is coming from 3g, and tried multiple times, so now im at a loss. im also unaware if this has affected my ability to connect to regular networks as i have none available to test right now. any help would be great tho, im still learning my way around adb but these are the commands i used.
adb remount
adb push system/bin/wpa_supplicant /system/bin/wpa_supplicant
adb shell chmod 755 /system/bin/wpa_supplicant
and i was instructed to use this as well but it came with an error
adb shell chown system.wifi /data/misc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf
---------- Post added at 09:03 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:57 PM ----------
so i tried again with that chown command after a restart and it went through, and now it still sees the adhoc network, but once i try to connect it just adds it to the bottom of the list saying out of range, and i try again with no results..

Google it my friend.

I have a Vista machine.
1) First of all I enabled sharing of LAN card
2) Wifi & LAN were not getting enabled at same time (LAN was given auto precedence), issue was resolved by disabling switching of LAN/WLAN in BIOS
3) Installed Connectify
4) configured it to share my LAN connection over WIFI
Simple!

i have attached the edify ready zip of wpa adhoc
and if u need to convert amend script to edify use the other attachment found via googling
i have flashed this but unfortunately i could connect to ad hoc(of my laptop) only once and that too couldnt access the internet.
Now whenever i make ad hoc from my lappy the option of 'share your internet connection' is not present at all!

My phone is a LG p500 rooted, android 2.3.3 original LG ROM, and my sdcard is partioned, I've not updated the kernel yet... I have used ES File Explorer since Root Explorer is now paid and I have no credit card.
I've tried a wpa_supplicant from another forum and now my android just keeps rebooting.
I set the airplane mode and could use ES File Explorer again to restore original file, but, anyway, my phone just works in 3G networks... whenever I turn on the wifi, the phone reboots....
What exactly is this wpa_supplicant, what it does? in linux terms?
Anyway, I'm gonna give a try in this one in this thread...
---------
Update:
Meanwhile, i found out why my original wpa_supplicant was not working... it seems it is not a file, as i was wondering, it is a program... and when i gave it permissions to override, i set wr-wr-wr... but as a program, it must have the EXECUTION permission: wrx-wrx-wrx ... now my wi-fi is working again... but, still, not detecting ad-hoc ...
anyway, i can try again with differente version i backed up my original, and now i know how to fix it...
in case of success, i post here!
---------
Update:
ad-hoc now working! \o/
there are many threads about this subject, so, to help others noobs like me, some notes:
1) root your phone
2) download ES File Explorer on market. it's a free (and very good) alternative to Root Explorer
3) its a good idea to turn off wifi now. better, set airplane mode.
4) in the configs of ES File Explorer, if your phone is rooted, there is an option to mount the /system directory with permissions to write/read and another option to see hidden files. check them on.
5) now, you should navigate to /system/bin/wpa_supplicant and save a copy of this file in a secure location.
6) back to system/bin/wpa_supplicant, press long and in its properties, you can change the permissions of the file to rwx-rwx-rwx
7) now you can copy the wpa_supplicant you found in this forum, to that location, and override the original (dont worry, if you have a backup, its reversible)
8) again, check the permissions of the new wpa_supplicant. it must be rwx-rwx-rwx too. (it's a program, the "x" is needed to execute)
9) that all. it now should work. ad-hoc networks are marked with a (*)... in my case, worked perfectly. My phone is a LG P500 android 2.3.3 original rom.
10) in case of any errors, just try another version of wpa_supplicant, there are some versions here. or, just restore your original wpa_supplicant. remember the permissions.
11) if you have the android sdk in your pc, you can run adb shell wpa_supplicant -v and find out your version... v5 or v6 ... in this forum there are modified wpa_supplicant in versions 5 and 6 ... use the correct according to your rom...

ICS WIFI problems? Running InsertCoin 4.0.8, 0 wifi problems, always maxed out connection (with like 4 concrete walls between me and the router)

Let me explain. In ics. If u have a none EN or US sim card
Wifi will be disabled upon booting android ..to fix this we add EN as alocal location for sim card. And it fixed the problem.

The script from this post works excellent!

I'm running ARHD 6.0.2 XE version, have done the script fix. I don't get any notification icons on statusbar that WiFi is running.. any solutions in this or is it just that way?
Thanks

Did you restart the phone? after a reboot, turn off wifi then on. Should work.
Also, there is now Wifix made by fardjad that makes it even easier.

[Q] How to connect Galaxy Tab 7.7 to ad-hoc wireless AP?

I know that Android cannot connect to ad-hoc wireless AP and there are hacks that replace wpa_supplicant module with a modified one after root. However I am new to Android and also my P6800 (Galaxy tab 7.7) is also relatively new, I don't know which wpa_supplicant version it uses and where the modified version is? Is there anyone who modified P6800 successfully and can connect to adhoc AP?
I also appriciate a detailed instruction from how to root till replacing this module as I am not familiar with these operations.
By the way after root can I upgrade firmware when it is released?
Thank you all for the help!

Galaxy Tab 7.7 Ad-Hoc enablement in progress
I've rooted my 7.7 tab using the instructions from Pocketnow (very easy and quick). They are specific to the 7.7 tab. I would post the link but I'm not allowed as a new poster!
I'm about to manually copy a new wpa_supplicant file using Root Browser (free from Google Play).
I'll let you know what happens!
Edit:
Managed to copy over the original file but the one I used is obviously not compatible as I couldn't enable WiFi afterwards. It's probably to do with the versions. I'll have to do some more research!

OK, thanks, this is what I worried, I don't know which one is the good version for 7.7. But have you backed up the original one and restored it?
I also want to know which root you used, if you cannot post link can you remove 'http://www' so it will not be regarded as a link (like I do below)?
There is one worry about root, some people said after root, if you uninstall busybox, wifi will not work:
thegalaxytabforum.com/index.php?/topic/9039-galaxy-tab-gt-p6800/

This is the root I used:
pocketnow.com/android/how-to-root-the-samsung-galaxy-tab-77-without-kies-or-odin
I installed superuser as suggested and WiFi still worked ok (not ad-hoc yet though, obviously!).
It didn't take long at all for the root to be applied.
I'm just attepting a wpa_supplicant that is confirmed working on the 10.1 tab so will let you know...
Edit:
Just tried this:
androidtablethacks.com/android-tablet-hacks/how-to-enable-adhoc-wifi-on-android-tablets/
but no joy for the 7.7.
I now have two alternative versions of the wpa_supplicant file and neither allows Wifi to re-enable after reboot. Restoring to the original file has worked no problem so I haven't needed to re-flash my tab.
I will try to get hold of a 7.7 specific version.

I'm thinking that the only solution may be to get a MiFi unit that will run an infrastructure network that can be detected by the SGT7.7.
I will keep investigating a wpa_supplicant solution.

Thank you. So there is no good version for 7.7 yet?
As for root, superuser is OK, but the problem is on busybox. I also saw some different versions of root packages, some of which claims to not have busybox inside.

I have come across multiple versions of the wpa_supplicant file but I have not found one that enables ad-hoc on the 7.7 yet. As someone else posted elsewhere, they are a much smaller file size than the stock one (>500kb).
I have not used busybox at all. Once I rooted my device I installed Superuser from the marketplace. This manages all my root permissions.
I have also installed Root Browser to allow file and permissions manipulation of wpa_supplicant.

When I used ipad, it was so convenient to connect to the ad-hoc wifi spot that my Nokia E72 shared. Now with 7.7 I am totally blocked on the way. I can put my IM card into 7.7 to get Internet, but 7.7 is not a convenient phone...
Maybe we have to wait...
Edit: It seems your root.zip (614kb) already includes superuser and busybox.

Here's what you need to do.
Assuming that you have already rooted your device, use any file explorer app and go to 'etc' folder of your device. (I used Root Explorer and did this on my Samsung Galaxy Tab N8000).
In 'etc' folder, locate the file called hosts.
Touch/press and hold the icon of the file to get its context menu and open the file in text editor.
In the file, there will be one IP address to the localhost, i.e. 127.0.0.1. Leave this as it is.
There will be a second IP address which may vary depending upon your region or country. Put a # in front of it. (eg. #245.45.14.14). This will mark this entry as a comment and the device won't read it.
(I would suggest that you backup 'hosts' file before making any changes. In my case, a 'hosts.bak' file was automatically created when I saved the file after editing.)
Save the file and reboot your device.
This should resolve the issue.

There will be a second IP address which may vary depending upon your region or country. Put a # in front of it. (eg. #245.45.14.14). This will mark this entry as a comment and the device won't read it.
(I would suggest that you backup 'hosts' file before making any changes. In my case, a 'hosts.bak' file was automatically created when I saved the file after editing.)
Save the file and reboot your device.
This should resolve the issue.

That's really strange. You should be able to edit the file as rooting process needs a reboot too. Well you can still try a workaround.
* Copy all the contents from the existing host file.
* Create a new file either on your smartphone or use a computer to do so. Make sure the name of the file is 'host' (without quotes) and file does not have any extension like .txt or .doc. If the file has any extension, remove it while rename the file.
* Now paste all the copied contents from the existing file to the new one and then make the changes as I mentioned in my answer.
* Save the file and replace it with the existing one.
Let me know if this helps.

Thank You

You are most welcome friend. I am glad I was of some help.

Cheers mate, you are a true legend. My phone locked up on me, and this solved the problem, cheers mate.

Ok, I am having this issue as well. I have tried all of the above but just noticed that this file only has one IP address not two?

[Q] [A700] Ad hoc wifi support? (aka IBSS, adhoc)

I have tried a few custom ICS and JB ROMs for the A700. I could not get it to connect to my ad-hoc wifi network.
Q1: Is there a ROM out there that supports ad-hoc wifi, for the A700?
Q2: If not, is anyone working on it, preferably for JB?!
I really need this feature, or I'll have to replace the tablet.. :crying:

Maybe you can try it with this little piece of software, but make a backup before trying, it doesnt work on every device!
I tried it with my SGS+ years ago and had no problems at all, others had...
For example it could happen that the wifi isnt working properly anymore (as the developer wrote on his description only a hard reset will help in this case or a backup).
Make a backup, give it a try and then you can revert everything if it doesnt work out for you

Probably just need to change wpa.supplicant files for one that enables adhoc. At least on older HC and ICS. JB should probably be the same. Here's a link to a wpa.supplicant file that maybe will work, along with instructions. (always keep a backup of your current supplicant file. You can do all necessary things using ES File Explorer. For this method you need root;

For non-rooted, you need an app.
Here's a much simplier app you can use on the non-rooted tablet rather than installing client apps on the PC;

Thanks for the tip. I found a list of phones/tabs that Wifi Ad Hoc enabler reported working, there was no A500 and A700. There was A100 with ICS that worked, and A200 with JB that did NOT work. I read up on it, and it sounded like it replaces the wpa.supplicant file. I have tried about 4 different wpa.supplicant files that I could find on the web; none of them worked. I have decided to switch to a different tablet. Thanks again for your help!

Thanks for the tip on wpa.supplicant. I have tried a bunch of them, about 4 or 5. None of them worked. (See my previous post also.)
Regarding FoxFi app through the link you have mentioned, it's now part of PdaNet. According to their web description, it turns a tablet into a hotspot, not what I was talking about--connecting tablet to an ad-hoc network.

Try that second supplicant file. Make sure you set the permissions on it after you copy, then reboot the tab. Wipe cache and dalvik also.
If I get some time, I might check it out. Might be able to merge the changes into our own supplicant file.

Hi, I have the same problem with my a500 cm10 v6supercharge, no way to get enable ad hoc connection?!
Please could some body update the wpa supplicant file?
