I use WEP encryption,
64bit encryption strength,
network authentication: open
The most important part, specify your MAC address in Wireless - Mac filter of your modem/ router and select allow.
You can check your MAC address for phone by browsing to Menu> About phone> Status>WI-Fi MAC address.
Restart your modem and scan wifi from phone when you see SSID select it and enter the 64 bit assigned key.
Thats all. All the best.

thanks very much...

Trip, do not use WEP encryption in this day and age, one can crack it with widely available tools in mere seconds. I'm using WPA2-PSK with AES encryption (D-Link DIR-655) on my phone (XXKPH firmware) just fine. If there's a problem it might be one or combinations of the following:
. Firmware issue
. Incompatibilities between wireless access point and your phone

What firmware did you flash? I have some problems with the Gingerbread versions of Android. If you flashed XXKPH or JPKP5 try to connect to your router and ping your router ip and some external ip (like google DNS 8.8.8.8). If your router pings well and you have about 70÷80% lost packets while pinging external IP. you have the same problem as mine. To solve it you can:
1. flash Froyo
2. change your WiFi router (I've tested 3 routers and I have problems only with 1)

I am on ddkf1 and have this problem from starting. However it is better than ddkb2.
In my room wifi in sl works at will as it will connect/not connect/disconnect at it's discretion. And my laptop n other nokia phone works without any issue.
Should I update to xxkb3/kph or show it at the service centre.
Please suggest as it's driving me crazy now

[ Solved ] Working 100% - Enable WiFi ad-Hoc Network for both ICS / GB -htc Sensation

[ Solved ] Working 100% - Enable WiFi ad-Hoc Networking for Both ICS and GB for htc Sensation
For GB , this Patch will enable ad-hoc 100% steady connection for both ( WEP and open Networks ) , Also Hotspot WPA2-PSK is still able to connect
For ICS , the APK will enable ad-hoc 100% steady connection with Full WiFi Signal for both ( WEP and open Networks ) , and for Hotspot WPA2-PSK use through regular wifi menu
General
Android does not show this Ad-hoc networks ( it Finds them in the search , but filters them out of the shown results ) , this patch prevent that filtering and shows those ad-hoc networks
There are two types of WiFi Networks :
Infrastructure ( Hotspot ) WPA,WPA2-PSK which is the most secured connection , usually routers broadcast this
Ad-hoc it is either WEP or open network which is less security , usually issued through a laptop connected to a DSL line to broadcast a temporary WiFi connection
DISCLAIMER
I am not responsible if flashing this Mod results in bricking your phone
for Rooted devices​
ad-Hoc Networking for GB
Download Link
See attached Patch Ad-hoc Sensation-Ad-hoc.zip ( Full Credit and thanks to leeDroid )
ZT-180 Adhoc Switcher APK can also work with GB , But i prefer the permanent solution of the above Patch for GB
Apply the Patch
it is always good to do a Backup for your data , Or Just Backup the original file " wpa_supplicant " located in System\bin .
to restore the original file " wpa_supplicant " any time :
just open the Patch in a winrar window and navigate to System\bin and over-right the one in the Patch with the original ( you can get the original from your Rom zip ) . apply the modified Patch from recovery and you are back to the original
if you use Root Explorer to restore the original file ,make sure to set the correct permissions and ownership values
Clear Dalvik cache , and install the Patch from recovery as usual
ad-Hoc Networking for ICS
it is always good to do a NAND Backup for your Rom and data
there is an APK named " ZT-180 Adhoc Switcher " which i geuss is not intended for Sensation but can support additional devices in the try Mode , this APK has two modes
infrastructure mode infrastructure mode.jpg ( will not be used , for Hotspot WPA2-PSK use regular wifi menu )
and " Just to try " ad-hoc mode for non supported devices Just to try ad-hoc mode.jpg that we interested in
the " Just to try " ad-hoc mode worked fine with Sensation
it connects fast , very steady connection with full Wifi Signal and a fast WiFi Data transfer , Ad-hoc it is working for both WEP or open network , Please note that some firewalls could prevent you from connecting even after adjusting its settings
Ad-hoc ( open Network ) :
open network connection doesn't require a Password ,
to modify either SSID name or WEP password , go to setting while you are in infrastructure mode and modify or clear the name in SSID then just switch back to Just to try mode and enable WiFi
if you clear ( remove ) the default name in SSID , this lets the device find and connect automatically to any open ad-hoc you establish from your laptop for example with any name of your choice ( on condition that your ad-hoc connection should be the only available ad-hoc connection in range ) ,
if you leave the default name in SSID "Android tether " as it is , it will only look for a connection with the name "Android tether " that is issued from your laptop and it will not detect any ad-hoc connection with any other name
if there is more than one open network in range that can be seen by the APK then
tip 1 : name the connction in your laptop same as in device SSID ( i.e android tether )
this is because if there is more than one open ad-hoc network and you left the SSID name empty , you can not control which connection the APK will choose to connect to
tip 2 : or use Ad-hoc ( WEP Network )
Ad-hoc ( WEP Network ) :
if you want to use WEP connection , go to setting while you are in infrastructure mode then enter SSID name and Password then switch back to Just to try and enable wifi WEP Password.jpg
the name of the connection should be the same name of the connection you started on your laptop for example
there is a complete help for the APK when you press the thin line under setting
Superuser.APK
if you are using the normal Super user APK opens normal , But if you are using the New SuperSU APK there will be a delay of maybe 5 sec for starting or executing Commands
please read this first #70 , Please note that this APK is not fully compatible with sensation although it worked fine with me
there is another APK ( try it if you like to ) named " WiFi AD HOC enabler " which doesn't really work good ( very weak signal and disconnects frequently ) , or at least this is what i experienced
Connectify Pro
there is a small yet powerful PC Software Called Connectify Pro ( i can't do without it ) that does three things :
it is for windows users
Acts like an actual hardware Router ( Not software networking )
toggle wifi with a single click for either ad-hoc or hotspot ( can start the same ad-hoc connection after reboot )
automatically does all complicated configurations for all types of network to fit with your firewall and windows , also share and transfer files among other options
Press the thanks Button for this Post

There is an application similar to connectify, hostapd for ubuntu which I use all the time . But both the application ( connectify and hostapd is hardware depended . If your wifi Card supports infrastructure mode or master mode , then only they will work. ) So this work around will help those users.
Thanks for your post dear..

Nit worked to me with ICS ,

It works!!!
I'm using HyperNonSense-v2.4
Thank you!!!

i literally cannot figure this out... the instructions are really vague. "install the patch as usual from recovery" what is usual? you dont say. i backed up the wpa file and just used root explorer to overwrite it and it instantly broke my wifi. i restored the original so it came back fine but i dont know how to install patch from recovery as usual. obviously the APK says i dont have all of the files and must close. please help. running ICS viperrom 1.01

It means boot into recovery and flash it as you would a Rom

ok, after reading the post for the 10th time i guess im not supposed to apply the patch since im on ICS? well, i restored completely to before i tried to get adhoc working and just installed the APK and it still didnt work. said i didnt have all the files and it must close. the link to the APK in the play store doesnt work because sensation isnt supported and i just had to find it online. Could it maybe be the APK that im using? Does anyone have a working one they could send to me or any ideas to a solution?

It's not work with the latest Sense 4 build (HTC Ville C2 latest RUU (1.11.401.110) Android 4.0.3 ICS). So can you tell me how did you do with the wpa_supplicant file please? I want to modify it myself.

is it only working for HTC OR any GB ROM ?
Thanks

what are the specific steps in applying the patch?
whats needed? and steps?
thanks

Is it just depends on replacing wpa_supplicant file, or something more?
Because author of this apk said that file is vary for various devices, and I'd like to request for Onda V972 V1.
Apk doesn't work.
Can I just replace it without recovery, or is a stock recovery does the same in case of not having other one?
edit.
Here is how to compile proper wpa_supplicant file for your Android version:

and how to paste it without recovery in root explorer/total commander:

[Q] wpa_applicant.conf - Wireless troubles !

Hello,
Unfortunately I installed the "ZT 180 Adhoc Switcher" application to connect my phone to an Ad Hoc network ..
Since, you can not activate my wifi ...
The application has created a backup file that I restored using a shell .. But the wifi still does not work, he does not want to activate.
Could someone give me his file :
/ data / misc wifi / wpa_supplicant.conf ?
Maybe after this it can work again ?
Please: (
Thank you very much!

FIXED !
Hello,
Excuse me, finally after a reboot everything is back to normal

[Q] LG GPad V500 - USB Thethering on CM11

Hi guys, this is my first post on this forum, so I'm sorry if I'll do something wrong.
I bought a LG GPad V500 (standard version, not google experience edition) and i noticed that tha stock ROM was not so nice... I successfully installed clockworkmod and CyanogenMod 11. The ROM works fine, it's fast and i didn't find any bug. Just i can't understand how to setup USB thethering (aka reverse thethering).
When i start the server on my Windows 8 PC an app is installed on my tab (USB tunneling app). I accepted the super-user request and then I also installed the fake-wifi hack (included in reverse thethering package).
The problem is that, when I press Connect on my PC, the LOG shows no errors but I can't access Internet from the tab. USB Tnneling app shows "UDP connections: 0" and "TCP connections: 0" and the software on my PC says there isn't any download and upload speed. I reinstalled the apps many times and I replaced adb.exe (I founded this solution on Reverse Thethering official post on XDA, but it didn't work for me).
I googled the problem and I read many times that the kernel should be not able to run a USB thethering. I don't know if it could be true, i used the USB Thethering on CM 11 on my old TF300 (died 3 days ago :crying.
Do you know how to fix this problem? It's quite important for me because I can't use any wifi network at home and at work. Sorry for terrible English and thanks
P.S: is it possible, if needed, to change CM11 Kernel (flashing it using CWM)?

wifi not working

wifi 5.11 doesn't work after an update. When it didn't work, i unlocked the bootloader. I installed the roms, but i had the same problem. Sometimes when i restart the phone, wifi works
for 3-4 minutes then suddenly it stops working.
When wifi does not work, the mac adress is : 02:00:00:00:00:00
When wifi works and i look to the root explorer and the wifi map, i see : sys/class/net/wlan or sys/devices/virtual/net/wlan.
when wifi does not work, the wlan map is not there.
When wifi works, i tried to copy the backup of the wlan map but i've got this messaage "operation failed".
The phone is rooted, W/R permissioned by root explorer.
help me pls
