Good Day!
Hereby with a problem I become mad
I had a Samsung J7 SM-J730F with what I believe is a faulty wifi (board has little corrosion where wifi should be place)
I have reset back to factory, and everything seems working except the wifi,
phone and 3G/4G also works flawlessly
So, I though, I will connect it to some land line trough a OTG wifi module, or wire-cable, or to the computer (as we use to do years and years ago) and update all SO, or when I would like to download something big
For daily use, phone-data is enough
but I can get it to work,
I have try
- Bluetooth pairing
- a micro usb and a usb wifi dongle
- even a cable Micro USB - Ethernet RJ45 (j)
( at amazon : Ugreen-30219-Ethernet-Adaptador-negro/dp/B00WM9LUN8 )
nothing seems to give connectivity to my phone,
anything else I could do ??

Hey everyone !
So here's the problem : I've got a Nexus 7 + Galaxy S2 I727R that I'd like to use at work. I could tether the connection from my S2 to my tablet and use that but I'm not on unlimited data plan. I also know I can share my PC connection via Bluetooth but that'd need a specific software to be installed, in the lines of stuff like BlueSoleil. Considering I have no admin rights at workplace, is there any alternative that would permit me to share the PC connection via a Bluetooth dongle without installing a software ? The BT dongle is detected AND installed via Windows 7 but there is no BT icons in the bottom-right corner and there's no built-in BT-software on the computer.
I did my research on the PortableApps forum, which would be a decent option but I can't seem to find anything...
Anyone had any luck sharing Internet over BT on a workplace PC ?
Thanks.
P.S : Remember, no admin rights.
Sorry you can't use a BT dongle without some sort of bluetooth software installed
Yes there are bluetooth dongles which are plug and play, which don't need installing drivers, see these ones for example
BLUETOOTH ADAPTER DONGLE PC LAPTOP-PLUG "N" PLAY - UK
Tiny Plug & Play Bluetooth 2.0 USB Dongle 100m range
Mini Bluetooth Dongle for Computers and Laptops - Plug N Play Transfer Files
Problem is all of them support Bluetooth 2.0 not 2.1+EDR, please advise and please help find a bluetooth dongle which is plug and play and is designed for bluetooth 2.1+EDR
Thing is, even with the bluetooth dongle working you won't be able to share Internet connection through ICS without admin rights. If anyone has a workaround on this, it would be appreciated!! I'd like to use my S2 more at work, but with 250mb / month it's left unused most of the day =/

I recently purchased the Lenovo S6000L tablet for the purpose of traveling. I wanted a large screen (10.1) tablet that could do the basic functions of a laptop, without having to lug around my 17.3 inch HP laptop to and from work/etc. My issue is, I work for a company that will not allow us to access their WiFi (security reasons), but we can use any LAN. I purchased an OTG cable and a USB to Ethernet converter. To my surprise, my Lenovo tablet wouldn't recognize the converter, thus, not allowing me to access the internet via the OTG cable. After that failure, I decided to root my tablet, which I did. Even with the root I can't seem to tweak the tablet to allow the internet connection bridge to work. Being P/O, I decided to go a step further by flashing a custom ROM to the tablet in hope that a different ROM would read and react to the OTG setup, but I'm unable to find a ROM that would work. Well their you have it, this is my big issue. Even though those are the steps I've taken or are willing to take, doesn't mean It's the only thing I'm looking to do, I'm open to anything that will work. So I desperately ask, does anyone have or know of a solution for me to use a RJ45 ethernet cable on this S6000L Lenovo tablet?
P.S. I've hooked up the USB to Ethernet to my PC and it worked, so it's not faulty. I've hooked up a flash drive to my tablet via the OTG cable and that worked also, so the OTG cable works as well.

you cannot use like that because to use internet from other device to android you must use reverse tethering method and it can be done only from connecting it to a laptop or pc
so yyou cant use internet directly from lan cable to your tab
I don't want to use it from another device.

I'm not using it from another device, I'm only using it and want to use it from a router and/or directly from a modem. I only hooked the adapter to my laptop once just to verify the adapter was working.

yes i understood your question
i said there is no way to use internet in tab from lan cable
The Nexus 7 tablet does it.

Corrections for the above reply: I misread your reply. In theory, reverse tethering is the same method. A source that contains internet(PC) that you bridge to your tablet and gives it internet. The Nexus 7 is one tablet that allows you to bridge a RJ45 to the tablet for LAN access, and their are others. My best guess is it's an software issue that Lenovo has blocked, but I'm looking for a way around it. I don't know if they added anything specific to the stock that is killing that use or is it just that the adapter I purchased isn't compatible with what I believe is Linux based software. As I said, I will travel any path to victory, even if I have to flash software that's used on the Nexus 7, if possible.
Sorry for the delay, I'm at work and people keep coming to me.
Houston, I believe I have a solution to my problem!!
I have no clue why I didn't think about it earlier but all it may take to remedy my issue can be spelled with one word, Portable Wireless Router. Ok, that's 3 words, but who cares! I don't. Whenever I'm in a situation where LAN is available but WLAN isn't, I figure all I would have to do is to plug the LAN into my soon to be purchased TP-LINK TL-WR702N 150Mbps Wireless N Nano Router. And BOOM! my own private WiFi hotspot.
Hello,
I have a Joying 5.1.1 HU with RK chip which has absolutely horrible Wi-Fi connection. I recently got a freedompop account (Sprint's network) which gave me a wifi hotspot.
I plan on taking the sim card from the wifi hotspot and putting it into a LTE USB dongle (either Franklin U770 or Netgear 341U for Sprint bands).
1. Is it as simple as plugging in the dongle to one of the USB ports on the back of the Headunit?
2. Is there possible compatibility issues between brands of dongles?
Thanks.
Better to buy the dongle at Joying website, to avoid compatibility issues...

1. Yes, if your USB 3G/LTE dongle has already pre-configured (also, not PIN enabled), mine works this way.
2. Yes, you may refer to some of the threads/posts here or in MTCB forums for the list of compatible dongles. I have 2 3G dongles on hand but only one worked.
Also, mine has "USB3 is not mounted" issue quite frequently since I started having the dongle plugged in. I have tried to switch between the 2 ports given and also flashed a few ROMs, to no avail, same thing happened. Not enough power maybe? Still looking for an easy fix. Maybe a seperate Mifi could work or I stop playing music from USB instead.
Erisin (LM) MTCD unit. This works for me:
1. Huawei E220: disadvantage is that it needs two USB slots, one for additional power, else won't work properly
2. Huawei E367: not recommended, because it's dual-mode (includes USB storage mode). By default it's in USB storage mode, to make it work I have to use PPP3 Widget after root.
To answer both your questions:
- yes, compatibility issues can occur, check MTCD thread on pda4, there is a list of tested modems. Other than that, you need "Mobile Network Settings" apk, if you don't see the menu in settings, so you can configure the APN.
Hi. i would like to know if there are any compatible 4G dongles ... ?
This may be useful to you - I currently have issues with using a WiFi dongle on my XTRONS GS MTCD.
The head unit boots in about 1s from standby, but the WiFi dongle (XTRONS 3gdong008) takes about 20-30s to boot.
If I want to get nav / streaming music running, I have to sit there for ages while it turns on and connects.
Very annoying - I've gone back to using my mobile as a hotspot for now.
I'm considering adding a permanently live USB port and leaving the WiFi dongle always running, although I'm not sure if this is going to drain the car battery while parked overnight.
Hello.
For the last two days I have been trying to make my OMEGA Wireless Gamepad (a copy of the PS Dual Shock controller) work on my Galaxy J7 2016 (6.0.1).
It connects to the phone through Bluetooth as a input device no problem but it won't work further than just that.
I even rooted the phone to try some stuff out but to no avail.
It stays connected but none of the buttons do anything (not in phone menu, not in PPSSPP, not in a bunch of keymapper aps).
So I was wondering is there a way to get this fixed without me having to buy an Micro USB to USB Adapter and trying that out.
Thanks for reading.
Hi guys. I'm getting stuck with this problem. I don't have a good house network (my isp is terrible) so I started using my Smartphone (huawei nova 5t) to play with my xbox on online games. Until now i've been using the Hotspot (wifi),but it's instable and it pings a lot. So I was wondering how could I use a cable to use my LTE connection on my xbox via ETHERNET using the USB Thetering . I bought from amazon an adapter that's Type C-Ethernet. It's a really good one,but when I plug it to my phone,my Huawei doesn't let me use the USB thetering,I can't activate it. So I was asking if there is a way,an external app or something that could make me do that. My idea is LTE---> Otg Type C Ethernet---> Xbox one. I found nothing on the internet about this,all the threads are about using that OTG to connect my phone to a router and using the router internet,and it works perfectly that way,but I wanna use the cable in the opposite way. I wanna share my smartphone connection with my xbox. Can I do that with that otg or it's just impossible..? Thanks forward.
Hi there. I need the same thing! Sorry to bump late but at least there's only 2 of us.
I think it's called
REVERSED TETHERING via an ETHERNET dongle. (or HOST mode?)
It should be technically possible because ethernet dongles are supported by a lot of ROMs but this function is usually going in the other direction.
Tetrd is another useful search term.
Did you get further with this since you last posted this?

If you can put a windows device between the set up, you can use the program Connectify to make your windows machine a router and choose the ethernet out and plug it into the xbox. And then usb tether the phone into the computer. Connecitfy works with speedify too so if you have multiple hotspots you can bond them together and get a more reliable connection.
Or, I suppose, a Raspberry Pi
