[Q] WiFi-Hotspot Issue?

I have a Nexus S (I9020A model). I bought it with an AT&T contract. Isn't the portable WiFi Hotspot feature supposed to be free on the Nexus S? I can turn on the hotspot, and I can connect to it with my iPad. However, when I try to browse the internet on the hotspot, it says that there's no internet connection. Help!
My software version is 2.3.6. The build is GRK39F.

Same problem for me, no solution except root/unlock & downgrade

Why downgrade? Have you tried wireless tether in the.market? Have you tried libsec-ril from a previous version?

I was assuming Jacobspoirier was stock/unrooted/locked. In which case he could root and download an app without the hassle of downgrading, you're right

Did the settings for mobile network get changed somehow? Check under wireless settings and make sure the box for using mobile network is checked. If not you may have to Odin back to stock with modded 3e and root.

att stock firmware has issue to create a new fake new invalid empty apn

I just bought my first infuse yesterday and i really like it only one problem though it wont connect to data with my personal sim but when i put my company sim in it works is there an app or download i can install to override this issue or do i need to get a new sim card? Btw the company sim card that works is an old 64 cingular sim card and the one that doesnt has 3g att on it . Any help is appreciated thankks Sam

That doesn't make sense. Call ATT and tell them your sim doesn't work.

I can't remember, neither of us have infuses anymore. We switched to SGS2's lol.
I think its the one in the MIUI thread.

What do you mean by try a different modem sorry im noob ! thanks!

It may help with your issues, there are only a couple options for this phone, can be flashed in recovery like you did your rom.
Someone has a post, I believe a sticked one that has all the modems for you to choose from

Get the latest sim card, free from t mo, I think the latest is t9177 but if you call or go to store they'll tell you. Or try a different ROM, or go pull a logcat to see what's going on when service drops

The problem is weard. You guys did not touch the system settings and all. Then too the wifi stopped working all of a sudden. I looks more like tring to tweak some setting and got them wrong.

Then there might have been some issues when ur device was updated. You updated through OTA? And u sure u didn't play around with your system files?
Sent from my SM-N9100 using XDA Free mobile app

Updated through OTA and everything stock. Was working for about 3 months and then all of a sudden got this issue.
Read somewhere that we need to disable wifi power Saving in service menu. But the thing is this device does not have a dialer to launch the service menu through *#0011#

Boot to recovery and clear the cache partition. It might solve it or backup all your important stuff and do a factory reset.

Bump for a 4 month old thread.
Did you ever resolve this issue and if so, how?
Cheers

I think I have found a solution someone else discovered however Sambung might have fixed this since in an update as my wife's 10.5 is working fine.
I will put it here to help anyone who is still having issues.
I bought a Tab S 8.4 on ebay yesterday for dirt cheap as it claimed to have WIFI issues so I hope this is a legit fix.
You don't need to do a factory reset and fart around with setting it up again. SideSync is the culprit, which is a drag for those of us who bought this tab to pair with our gs5's. But, I think this fixed it. You can't disable it, but you can uninstall the updates to SideSync, which I think is the cause of the problems. I also have the Logitech keyboard that does cause some interference issues, but nothing too bad. After uninstalling updates, I ran wifi speed tests on my home network with the tab after turning off bluetooth (no difference), in and out of the Logi case (</=10% reduction in wifi performance probably due to the case *and* interference). Samsung then hit me with an system update yesterday (did anybody else get one?), and everything seems to be fine. The tab also automatically updated SideSync after the system update, and it still seems to be working... Hope this helps!
