Hi to everyone, this is my first post even if I've often read this beautiful forum. I have a question about hotspot capabilities in CyanogenMod 12 Lollipop (5.0.2). I had my S4(jftlexx) personal WPA protected hotspot (though with a very dummy password) and was sharing connection with my girlfriend, when suddenly looking at the phone I found out two devices where connected. As soon as I was aware I stopped the hotspot and now here's my question: if someone was able to deduct my hotspot password and connected to my personal hotspot, was it able to browse my personal file and eventually steal it?
I'm asking because I have on my phone very sensible data, that should remain on my own. I know that it's not directly possible without a dedicated app installed, like an FTP server (i have superbeam installed even I'm 100% sure its server was not running and sharing nothing), but someone with some knowledge and hacking intentions could be able to do this? thank you, and sorry, I'm a little in panic

Good day, I am new to this forum.
I'd like to ask about the possibility and the general way to do my project.
My project includes an application running on a PC(w/ Windows of course). and an android app wirelessly connected to the PC. Both application should be able to communicate with each other sending and receiving request from each other. I'm particular with database. How can they access the same database located on the PC. Also, can the android access files like pictures from the PC and use it in the app. I'll really appreciate any help becuase this is very crucial for my graduation
I don't know if this is the best place to post this but I'm desperate
Please use the Q&A Forum for questions Thanks
Moving to Q&A
Gentlemen and ladies,
As stated in the title I have a cheap MID M1050 Tablet rocking the 4.0 Android OS. Works fine for what they were purchased for but I am doing a job which requires the ability to access Ad Hoc networks which this does not do well. Sometimes it will see it, sometimes it will connect to it and sometimes it will anger the tablet gods and then it will not connect to any network. Being new to the rooting community, I was directed here for questions and answers but I haven't found the area for this particular device so if there is one, please link me to it because I searched the hole site for this model and it returned nothing.
My main question would be, if a successful root was done on this device, would I have either:
A) Greater functionality in the wifi abilities, i.e. able to connect to Ad Hocs at will
B) Any ability to change the way this device connects wirelessly so I make the changes I have found to enable the Ad Hoc connectivity
If so, would rooting with a custom ROM be similar as other tablets rocking 4.0 or would this one have its own way to go about it?
Not asking for someone to hold my hand through this but would like some opinion, links, and any documentation you would have on the subject. Looking to start my rooting on this simple device for the above and to play with battery conservation.
I assume this post is located in the wrong location and if so, mods please move it to the correct area. As is obvious with my first post, new to the forum and hoping to meet some helpful people on ye ol' internets.
Thanks all.
Assuming this means no one is familiar with this brand or model which I expected. Ill poke around on Google some more and see what I can come up with and post my findings here for others to search. Very curious on the Ad Hoc and Android OS issue and guess I will post that question in the Networking section if I cannot find a suitable answer searching the site and Google.
Thanks again.
hey guys , In my college there is wifi connection and its a open connection and when connected my phone prompts to sign in but i want to hack it and use the internet without loging in . I saw many things like droidvpn and ssh tunneling but i dont now how to use them and i want to hack in very badly.
please help me finding a way to hack into it from my mobile.
If the network requires you to use a password, please get one. Your university has security measures, like requiring people to put in passwords, for a reason.
I think perhaps you're confused as to the purpose of this website. The purpose of this website is not as tool in which to find ways to hack wifi networks or other illegal activities. This site was created for developers to share their work and for users to enjoy and appreciate their efforts. Now if your intent for starting an account here was to seek out unlawful ways in which to do things such as what you're asking for help to do in your OP, then this is the wrong place for you.
Please familiarize yourself with the rules.
My workplace blocks youtube, which I want to watch on my phone while im working. Does anyone know how to tether a ultrasurf connection on windows pc to a android phone through usb or bluetooth? I know the old windows phones could do that

Hello, and welcome to XDA!
Hmm, if they block YouTube, it's very likely any proxy will be blocked as well, or at least a strict policy (including disciplinary action) about circumventing the firewall. I would be very careful with how you approach this, and likely not trying to access YouTube would be the best course of action. Just a suggestion.
If feeling brazen enough though, please register for an account (so you can post in other forums), and then check this thread out:

Hope this helps, and good luck!
Hello all
i want to know about wifi hack . Is there any possibility to hack any wifi passwords ?
Hmm, trouble is afoot.
I wouldn't consider password cracking an appropriate subject for XDA. People have the right to their privacy, for example.
