Does anyone know if there is a specific driver required for tethering with ICS? I can tether with usb on GB just fine, but my computer/phone wigs out when I try to tether when running on ICS. My captivate works just fine when tethering on ICS.
I've tried all of the ICS roms available (minus MIUI) and haven't had any luck with any of them.
you shouldnt need any drivers on windows for tethering whether or not you are in gb or ics. it should just show up as an ndis device. i havent used usb tethering in ics yet. what rom are you on?

I've been trying a few JellyBean roms and they work quite smoothly I must say
but one feature that is still missing for me is the hability to connect to adhoc networks just like in old modded ICS roms.
I've patched and recompiled Team EOS3 wpa_supplicant that allows to see adhoc networks.
(although it should be the same source for other JB roms most likely too)
Unfortunately using Roach's default kernel it still doesn't list adhoc networks,
by using Guevor's kernel V23-JB-EOS it is able to list them.
However it is timing-out while trying to connect to it. :\
I'm not sure, but it might be related to the wifi module that comes with the rom / kernels.
If anyone knows what else should be changed in order to get it to work, feel free to contribute
It'd be nice to get it working on JB again
If you want to give it a try and report what works or doesn't work with each rom / kernel combination of your choice, I've attached the modified wpa_supplicant.
To test:
- turn off wifi
- su and remount /system rw
- mv /system/bin/wpa_supplicant /system/bin/wpa_supplicant.ori
- gunzip the file
- cp wpa_supplicant /system/bin/
- chmod 755 /system/bin/wpa_supplicant
- turn wifi back on.
If you want to switch back to the previous wpa_supplicant:
- turn off wifi
- mv /system/bin/wpa_supplicant.ori /system/bin/wpa_supplicant
- turn on wifi

I know this is for Transformer so my post is pretty off topic, but this actually is the first modified wpa_supp that allows me to turn on wifi again on Nexus S with stock JB. Unfortunately it doesn't show me ad hoc network either
The only ICS ROM that works in adhoc mode for me is Revolver. I have tried Guevor and Harmnony kernels and they both work. I wish I knew more to help the cause. Ricardopvz started to work with me to fix this in Megatron but he got sidetracked and never continued. I suppose someone could look at the driver in Revolver to see how that one works and see if the changes can be ported to JB.
Adhoc tethering is important to me because my old Droid-1 can't tether to my tablet in infrastructure mode. Bluetooth tethering is slow and inconvenient. Thanks for carrying the flag on this. I will try to help with the testing.

Ah yeah, glad it could help still
I don't think wpa_supplicant is much different from rom to rom, so good to know that one works on Nexus S too.
Next is to figure out what might be missing either in the rom or in the wifi module or such...

Thanks
I have the same problem with my Nokia phone, it can only do adhoc network for sharing its 3G connection.
I can connect fine through it with bluetooth from a PC too, but android is not able to see the modem through bluetooth unfortunately.
So I definitely need adhoc to work
Maybe Ricardopvz or someone could participate for the JB roms if they have an idea what to modify next, I can have a look too.
I'll have a look in what could be changed in the BCM wifi driver in the meantime.
This makes the RaymanFX CM10 ROM see ad-hoc's but timeout on connect. Hope someone will fix this as ad-hoc is kind of necessary for me
theres a few things that have to in place for ad-hoc connections to work. just modifying the wpa_supplicant is not the answer. first the linux kernel on your device has to have CONFIG_NETFILTER, CONFIG_IP_NF_IPTABLES, and CONFIG_NETFILTER_XT_MATCH_MAC features. These are required for tethering (ad-hoc) to work in linux/android. also binaries like iwconfig will need to be included. ad hoc connections from droid to droid are sketchy and flaky because there are so many different kernels, wireless cards, and third party apps on so many different devices. I see why so many people dont like to use bluetooth tethering. typical cellular data service data transfer rates are much slower than the theoretical limits of Bluetooth, making the potential higher bandwidth of WiFi irrelevant.
these are the theoretical maximum speeds for various Bluetooth versions
Bluetooth Basic Rate (BR) 1Mbit/s
Bluetooth 2 Enhanced Data Rate (EDR) 2-3Mbit/s
Bluetooth 3 + HS (high Speed) 24MBit/s
So on the face of it, Wifi will normally give you a faster connection however the limitation is probably going to be the speed of your phone's data connection.

Well, what I'm trying to achieve here is connect to an existing adhoc network which would already be doing the NAT, so you wouldn't need any of that on the client tablet.
Android doesn't use iwconfig by default.
Netfilter/iptables support would be in cases you'd in addition want to share your internet connection through the tablet.
For connecting to an existing adhoc network, it mostly boils down to wpa_supplicant and the kernel wifi driver, and maybe some android-space process
But seeing that it times-out while trying to connect even by using directly wpa_cli commands, that should eliminate the android space process from the loop.
That should leave only wpa_supplicant and the wifi driver.

Didnt break the wifi card, but everything acted like the original file. No ad-hoc.
With the file i can see the ad-hoc networks around but can not connect them...

Babai,
Check out this thread.. I posted into EOS#4 thread the other day as I read somewhere some other's where having problems.. as you can see I am running the same phone as you.. but I am on Yanks kernel.. Look for my post in that thread and you will see the setup that worked for me.
I was reading through the posts today and through I come across some guy with tethering issues..
I just upgraded to #94 and are using this tether program with the SIII I9000, working great...

looked everywhere but cannot find out, is there any way to use the native wifi tethering in stock rooted jelly bean. I used the tethering fix from Peter Alfonso's website that worked for ICS stock rooted, but for jelly bean it removes my ability to connect to the network no signal at all. If not is there any other wifi tethering that works with stock rooted jelly bean for the nexus s 4g
Native tethering doesn't work yet, however this one does ...
http://code.google.com/p/android-wi...tail?name=wifi_tether_v3_2-beta2.apk&can=2&q=
Make sure to use Netd-Ndc (master) in setup.
did not work for me there was no internet connection when i used it, went back to ics until there is a fix for native wifi tethering
'
any update to this? This is the last piece that I need to get working so I can stop staying up until 1am and just be happy with a phone for a while
For me (codename 3.6, tried whatever the built in kernel is and flashed marmite), native tethering works exactly one time after a fresh flash, from then on it disconnects data
Wifi tether works okay
any one get this working yet
All I can say is I can't get ANY tethering to work on CM 10.1 for NS4G or any other 4.2.1 rom for that matter.
The Provision 4.1.2 rom seems to work, but that rom is buggy and slow as hell.

On Sgh i777, tried 3 non TW based ROMS and they doesn't work. But, adding a few cmds to the build.prop file, you will get full video and audio functionality (still can't find a way to mirror the whole UI)

Sorry for this very noobish questions but i have never been able to tether my connection through usb when using custom roms. i can tether in stock but not been able to use it in any rom i tried(cm7, oxygen gb, cm9, cm10, oxygen ics). i want to know how to tether in these roms especially cm9, cm10.1
Download the latest lg drivers.Usb tethering works for me on cm9,cm7,oxygen;almost every custom rom.
