Hi everyone!
I have formatted the cell phone a few days ago, and resetted it to factory settings.
Going to the gym, which has free wifi, I tried to connect as usual, but I am no longer redirected to web page where you have to login (typing the provided password).
I tried to delete the gym related networks, to use another browser (Firefox), to clean the cache by Wipe...
ZERO results.
Any saviors to help me, and to make my Christmas time happier?
Thanks in advance.
No one?
i run into this sometimes, but usually going to 1.1.1.1 on the browser does the trick. maybe you can try?

Thank you for your reply! I really appreciate it!
So, using any browser (i.e. Chrome), you type 1.1.1.1 and the login page should appear? I'll try as soon as possible, and I'll let you know.

I tried the solution you suggested but, unfortunely, it haven't worked.
Should I try to install a different ROM to find out if the problem is still there?
If so, which ROM do you suggest to install?

The gym (and all others) will keep a record of your MAC address. To get the renewal page you will need to change your MAC address, followed by a reboot. Then it will appear.
Thank you for your reply.
How do I change my MAC address?
You will need a ROOTed device. It looks like there are no MAC spoofers that work any more without root. If you have root, you are in fine shape- download MacChanger app, run it. Reboot may be required.

Please HELP!!!!
After hours of searching I'm seeing people mentioning the same problem with wireless tether as I have however they are mentioning it in their custom ROM thread thinking its only specific tho their ROM but it seems to be a universal issue. I understand there are still many with it working great, so let's not try to turn this into a "mines working great" thread and instead diagnose why it's working for some and not others.
Problem: Computers cannot connect, transfer freezes at 0.4kb. This is the same exact problem everyone is having (those who have problems) with Wireless Tether.
Things I've done to try to fix it:
1. Wiped Cache
2. Restored a Nandroid that was working great
3. Flashed the new kernal
4. Reinstalled AVA's Froyo Sense
5. uninstalled and reinstalled Wireless Tether
6. Tried the new beta version of wireless tether
Please help guys, this is vital to my business needs. I can live with the bugs in the ROM and things but this one I really need. You guys are great. Thanks.
Im having the same problem...bump?
I have the same problem..even madea thread nobody seems to help...
Things I have tried to fix
Rerun the simple rootwiped cache,dalvik cache ,flashed other roms..
Reran the simpleroot which downgraded me than rerooted to the toast method...
And flashed custom roms...nothing
Seems like its working but only get 4 kb down and 2 kb up ,
If I scan I don't see my wireless teether

Possible workaround
I am not sure if this is going to help but I took a trip this last weekend and thought I would give the tether a try. I think I was having the same problem you guys are seeing. The laptop would connect to the phone just fine but the internet would just simply not work.
After getting pretty pissed I opened the phones web browser while wireless tether was enabled and boom it started working on the laptop and continued to work for a couple of hours.
When I tried it again later the same thing happened I just needed to open the browser on the phone to get it working. Like the phone needed to be forced locally to make an internet connection.

I'm not sure what the exact prob you guys are having but maybe this could be of help....
The problem is that custom roms "intregrate" our app into their roms. They don't install it but copy it to /system/app or /data/app. By not installing it a shared library is not copied to the right location! It's not the fault of the app!!!
What you could do:
Remove the preinstalled app from /system/app or /data/app and install it manually!
Download: http://android-wifi-tether.googlecode.com/files/wireless_tether_2_0_5-pre2.apk
OR install mentioned shared-library manually:
1) Extract wireless_tether_2_0_5-pre2.apk (using winzip/winrar).
2) in "lib/armeabi" you will find a file named "libnativetask.so"
3) Copy this file to your device:
adb remount
adb push libnativetask.so /system/lib
Did anybody found a fix for this problem yet?
I hope you find a fix, all I can do is tell you what I do each and everytime I load a new ROM, or a new Wireless Tether APP.
I open the app, click tether... allow it to get superusers premissions.
Hit menu, access control, and ENABLE access control
Hit back, stop tethering, allow super users premissions
Close APP
Restart app, click tether and connect
I had your problem once, and this method with the newest version cured it. Hope you find your fix
I had this problem a few weeks ago. I was able to fix it, but i didn't document how i did it.
This is how I think i fixed it.
1. Use Titanium backup to wipe data, and then uninstall it.
2. Go into recovery mode and wipe cache partition.
3. Reboot
4. Then re-install wireless tether app (i installed the pre-9 from code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether/downloads/list)
I have a feeling I'm forgetting a step, but I hope this works.
I've never been able to get the market version to work. Always thought it was "old" code.
http://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether/
I am posting this using wireless tether pre9, on fresh's 3.3 with kingx cfs11 kernel.
Oh to install it. First unistall what ever version you're trying. Then do a fresh install of the download.

I was able to fix by uninstalling and then reinstalling pre10. Just an FYI
At the time I had the problem, the uninstall and re-install method didn't work. I tried re-installing a few of the different "pre" versions. Then I finally tried the clear cache between one of my uninstall/reinstall, and then it finally worked. dunno why, but that was the issue i was having...

Does anybody know how to change the MAC address on a VZW M8 running 5.0? Or on a phone running 5.0 in general? I'd appreciate any help you can give me.
I'm trying to change my phone's MAC address so that I can spoof a "Nintendo Zone" hotspot and get some of the freebie-goodies for my 3DS from home using my phone as a hotspot. The process is pretty straight forward (Make a hotspot, name it "attwifi", change the MAC to something Nintendo uses, get goodies.), but I'm having trouble getting the MAC address changed. Most tutorials have you use a terminal emulator with busybox to change it via command, or a hex editor to change the MAC address in a specific file, but I've not had any luck with either approach. Even the apps on the Play Store seem to fail. My guess is that it has something to do with Lollipop likely changing how MAC addresses are stored and used.
I've tried just about everything I could find, and am running out of ideas as well as ways to phrase the question to google to try looking this up myself. If anybody could tell me how to do this, or give me some pointers, that'd be great.
Also, in case it needs to be said: I am rooted, and unlocked with busybox installed. I've got the stock rom still, with TWRP if any of that matters.
Also, also. I realize this is a repost of my question in the HTC M8 VZW forum, and apologize for that. I'd have deleted the previous, but I can't seem to find out how. Either way, I figure this issue probably has less to do the the HTC M8 phone itself, and more so with Lollipop 5.0 as a whole, making this a better forum to ask in. Hope that isn't a problem.

I've already tried about a dozen different MAC Spoofers on the Play Store, but none of them actually seem to work. I'm pretty sure something with 5.0 has changed the way MAC addresses are used.

I recommend not using Pry-Fi by chainfire. After first use on a Nexus 5 running rooted stock ROM v5.1.1, it permanently broke Wi-Fi functions (setting would not turn on). After extensive web research and troubleshooting, I had to reflash the ROM and wipe the device to get it working again.
If you do install Pry-Fi, I warn app users to get a full backup and know how to restore before installing.
Chainfire has done great work in the community, but Pry-Fi app is no longer great.

I have this really odd issue with my Z3 in that I cannot, on any network (wireless or carrier), resolve through DNS forum.xda-developers.com. I first noticed it because my XDA premium HD app couldn't connect to the forums at all. I did a bit of digging and managed to uncover that I can't connect to anything related to the forums. I CAN however connect to the main portal on www.xda-developers.com.
What I have tried:
1. Different wireless networks - no luck.
2. Other devices - all work fine on all the tried networks.
3. Carrier network (Rogers CA) - no luck, but again with other devices no problem
4. Ping and nslookup through Fing network tools - not able to resolve
5. Ping and nslookup through terminal emulator - not able to resolve
6. hosts file just has the standard localhost entry
7. Browse with Chrome just gives the standard error for unresolvable DNS
8. So far I have only seen this happen on the forums.xda-developers.com address.
I am running a Z3 (D6603) with a custom ROM per below.
Pre-rooted ROM from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/z3/general/d6603-5-0-2-flashable-stock-23-1-0-690-t3056361
D6603_23.4.A.0.546_Customized_US_SuperSU_XZDR2.8.2 1 thanx to @julianbl
It's an odd one for sure, so if anyone has any creative ideas for me to test out please let me know. Thanks in advance.
use titanium backup or something similar to disable/uninstall "PrototypeProtection".
It's an app that sony uses to block certain sites when the bootloader is unlocked.
Julián
Go in Root Explorer,
Mount in R/W
Go to: system/etc/hosts
Try to add a xdadevs rule,
examp:
#207.244.72.9 http://forum.xda-developers.com
then reboot your device just normal.
i hope it works,

I should note that I have not unlocked my bootloader. I tried this and it has unfortunately had no effect. Open to other suggestions though, thanks for trying.
[EDIT] I may have spoken too soon. I tried connecting after disabling (freezing) that app and didn't have any luck. I rebooted the phone, and things are back online. I will do some further testing to get concrete and repeatable behavior documented. Thanks @julianbl

Thanks for your desire to help - given what we've found out so far this isn't a HOSTS file issue. There is no entry in the hosts file, and as such any DNS resolution for the domain should leverage DNS servers based on DHCP settings.
In my mind, adding a rule in the HOSTS file to force resolution of the domain, might work but it's not a real fix as to why this is happening.
Refer to my previous note that the suggestion to block the "PrototypeProtection" app is what has resolved the issue so far.
Thanks again though @bramybram, appreciate your willingness to help.
Hey there, I had the same issue... It is quite frustrating, I guess it's some bug in the firmware you installed (since I used the same to flash my z3)... I resolved it by flashing another firmware, I suggest you the D6603_23.4.A.0.546_Customized_NCB_SuperSU_XDR2.8.2 1 (https://mega.co.nz/#!GJQVBL6K!x8bB2HS-TbpbZTb5IamrJB_xduDMHl9j6jQyAqrJpVQ) one, it worked for me
I successfully flashed Andy Yan lineage os on my Umidigi a11 pro max mt6768 8gb/128gb
It worked flawlessly and possibly the best ROM I've laid my hands on but it can't connect to the internet
I can make calls and get my data connection on but I can't seem to surf the internet
Right now I'm back to derpfest a13 and it didn't have any internet issue
Is there anything I can tweak to enable it to browse the internet
Here is the download link for the ROM

go into developer options and look for a terminal emulator option, then type "ping google.ca" and "ping 1.1.1.1" to see what it can and cant access.. (1.1.1.1 is an ip while google.ca is a domain name, trying to understand if its a dns issue or an internet issue)

ping seems to be acting up but its obviously a dns issue since it cant find google
