Wi-Fi Tether w/ Root

I've successfully rooted my x10a and installed wi-fi tether 1.51 with no luck. Whenever I press on "- Press to start tethering -", I get a window displaying
Sorry!
The application Wireless Tether for Root Users (process android.tether) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again.
Any of you guys had any luck?

I'm not using that specific app but I do use wifi tethering.
I installed Barnacle Wifi Tether and then in settings i set athwlan0 as the LAN port.
It works fine for me, I get 7+ mbits and it's held up for over 5GB so far. Might be worth a shot.

Thanks for the reply. I'm getting an Error notification:
Unexpected error occured! Inspect the log and try the troubleshooting guide.

That's the error I got before I manually set up the LAN interface. Did you change that setting?

no, I didn't change a thing. Simply pressed Start as soon as i opened it. I've tried reinstalling it, but no luck
what's your WAN and LAN interfaces set as?

Follow the instructions I posted. The WAN interface is already set, you need to set the LAN interface.

read he`s second line , in settings i set athwlan0 as the LAN port

I tried "android wifi tether", It says "no netfilter", by reading the guide from that developer's website, it says we need to get an android 1.6 update. I think it means the android 1.6 in our X10 is the earlier version of 1.6, those tethering software require something in the later version of 1.6. I also found the update on that website, but, X10 does not have recovery mode, so I dont know how to flash the "update.zip" into my x10

I manually set the LAN, but still no luck. The same error screen appears...

Do you have SuperUser working properly? Another thing can also be the WAN setting, it should be something like rmnet0.

i think my superuser is installed properly... I followed the instructions given by bin4ry pretty closely and everything worked. WAN automatically was set to rmnet0.
Hmm, when I use setCpu, it says root not detected... that's kinda akward.

Yeah, it sounds like your rooting has an error. There was a bunch of updated files posted in the rooting guide among them a new SuperUser.apk, post #4 I think.

Confirmed working.

Well you shouldn't need to turn on wifi manually, the app does that automatically. Other than that I have no clue.

Get it, I manually set LAN as "athwlan0", everything fine, thank you
But I have a question, will the data gauge in "traffic" start to increase rapidly when there is no tethering device connected?

THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!!
it solved my interface error!
as for the PERMISSION ERROR
I redid the root from Step1-4 (including the hard reset)
it was related to the superuser.apk.
Thank you again for the info.

Zeph, thanks. I will give it a go once I arrive to work.
Thanks again for all the help everyone. I will let you know if it works.
Sent from my SO-01B using XDA App

sorry, it did not work. I guess I'll first flash the phone to x10i, then redo the entire 4 steps. My phone was originally x10a.
Will let you know.

[Q] Need Help - Samsung Galaxy Fit S5670

Hi All,
I am relatively a new user to Android and have recently bought my new Samsung Galaxy Fit mobile phone.
I have my Broadband connection for my PC and am able to make it as a wireless router. So my only job would be connect my phone to my PC's network.
But, I got to know about the limitations we have in Android phones with Ad-hoc networking and hence will have to tweak the settings, which first requires rooting into the phone.
So, what I am looking for is a way to root into my mobile and if available a complete reference on how to connect to any ad-hoc network that is available.
Thanks so much..! Any response is highly appreciated.

You could use an app such as the one attached. Download and install the attached file and try it. Hope it helps.

Thanks Theonew for your response, but unfortunately the Z4root doesn't seem to work.
I installed it and tried runnin the app, it runs for a while and then auto disappears. I assume that this should have worked but unfortunately when I type "su" in the Terminal it shows Permission denied again.
Little more help..

Hi Theonew,
Thanks for the link. I used SuperOneClick and it worked well.
Now, as I read in many articles I tried using a wpa_suppliant patch to detect the ad hoc networks but this does not seem to detetc any.
Can you please link me to any article if available

[Q] Bluestacks: After failed Root attempt, reinstall and reboot, BS hangs!

Hi all,
Tried to root bluestacks, latest install, yesterday, but it failed, couldn't get ADB to connect properly!
After uninstalling, cleaning up registry, rebooting, reinstalling bluestacks, it just hangs on loading screen, after starting Bluestacks!
Several reinstall attempts have been made, all to no avail, same thing: Bluestacks hangs, and won't even respond to ADB connection attempts!
Here's the BlueStacks.log: pastebin.com/gPkY9wLY
And the HyperVisor.log: pastebin.com/ebuYFE9K
Any help will be greatly appreciated, as i REALLY want to have Bluestacks running again WITHOUT having to reinstall WIN7-32bit all over again!
Thank You very much,
Gabriel Hansen

Bump
Bump!

I think it will take some further informations to spot the problem, sorry.
When your device is connected to your pc, look into the control panel in the device manager. Is there some kind of Android device in the Section USB-Controllers? If so, please check out it Properties and provide some of the detailed Driver Informations (Driver filenames and versions) and Vendor-ID and Device-ID, please. If you think that's too much of a hassle, you are able to download the Android SDK and just install Google's USB-Drivers, they should work in almost all cases. I would paste you a link, but i can't yet, sorry.

M00K00, thanks for your time, but i think you may have misunderstood a little....
Bluestacks is an Android EMULATOR, it is a 'software-phone', hence it cannot and is not regarded as a regular device, AFAIK!
I think the problem might be something with the Registry! I've tried cleaning out the registry searching for Bluestacks related entries, but so far to no avail!
BTW, you can always post a link, just post link WITHOUT the 'http:/' in front
Thanks again!

Cannot access phone storage on PC.

My OnePlus 7 Pro acts as Read-Only when I plug it in.
I noticed there is a folder in the OnePlus 7 Pro that has a Driver executable which installs the necessary drivers and I run that fine.
But that doesnt do anything and I cannot access my phone storage at all, that OnePlus folder with the drivers is all that shows up every time.
Yes I change it to "File Transfer", yes Ive tried all USB ports and even different UCB cables and cords. Going into device manager it seems windows is being a clown and cant seem to understand the drivers. Ive attached some pictures to show what I get.
Im honestly lost at this point as to what to do. Please help.

What does my computer show? Isn't it right there called storage D? If not right click run as admin and reinstall drivers and restart, plug phone in and choose file transfer..it may or may not pop up right away that's why need look at my computer

Thats my 4TB PC storage drive, not the phone. Ive installed the drivers as admin, done everything I can think of and still what you see in the screens is what Ive been getting.

Have you tired running both setups?

Yea I tried that and I get that "This device is not working properly because Windows cannot load the drivers required for this device. (code 31). I mentioned that in my initial post and have a picture of it.

Are you using a USB cable that supports data transfer? The original cable from OnePlus that came with your device as an example.

Have you tried the PTP option?
I've had several phones that, for whatever reason, the files couldn't be seen unless I used PTP instead of the File Transfer option.

How To install Google TV Launcher on Android 9 TV

first you are going to need to get 2 APK
The first one is com.google.android.apps.tv.launcherX_1.0.40152940
The second one is Google_base.apk
Then you are going to put your Android 9 version into developer mode you need to allow USB debugging and select USB configuration to any protocol such as media transfer protocol
When you did that you can sideload your two APK files when that is done you are going to need an app on your mobile phone called called remote adb shell. Find out the ip address of your box go to network and ethernet and you will find your ip adress. Go to your phone open remote adb shell put in your ip adress and 5555 on the second line click connect . Now you have two possibilities either remove the current launcher or disable it if you want to keep it
issue the following command
pm uninstall –-user 0 com.google.android.tvlauncher
if you want to reinstall the old launcher the command is as follow
cmd package install-existing com.google.android.tvlauncher
Go back to your android TV and you should now have the google tv launcher , as a side note some countries might need to use a VPN to make it work properly although it was launched officially cheers.

Thank you my friend but this is not much; I hope when you try it you let me know how it went; there is also an app that can help with the installation if you are not comfortable with ADB however I don't know if the app permanently applies the launcher changes or if you must choose it each time you logon; in any case here is the link to the app the app is called android tv home

I'm trying to get this on a Nvidia Shield TV 2017 specifically for the purposes of having voice search work in sideloaded apps and browsers. The voice search works on sideloaded apps on the Chromecast with Google TV, so can you voice search sideloaded apps and browsers with this UI on your device(s)?

You need to highlight the text, right click and copy into your browser or select search. The files are there. Not everything is an easy link in the hacker world. You must do the work and think.

Great , the steps you describe are working fine. I'm successfully able to install.

Im having a hard time finding "google_base.apk". Thanks to Mattc001 for attaching the xlauncher 1.1.11, I couldn't find that version, only 1.0.xx so ... yes your right, there should be some homework needed to be applied, it sure helps though when the files or "requirements" are attached. For one, it's trusted that the software used is the trusted one from the OP. Secondly, ... just revert to one.
@Mattc001 Could you please elaborate on the "google_base.apk" ... where to find? Is it under a different title name vs. file name? I'm really interesting in your findings. I just recently acquired a TCL with Android TV or maybe its Google TV and would really like to take advantage of tweaks, mods, and things to better enjoy the experience and boost performance.
Thanks in advance.

Why not ? Do you know how to sideload apks ? make sure you are in developer mode and select usb configuration to MTP

Instead of Google_Base I added another version "com.google.android.katniss_6.12.20221010.3-14001602_minAPI24 (armeabi-v7a, x86) (nodpi) _apkmirror.com" Apparently this is it. Everything works but I have to be on VPN USA all the time because otherwise Home or the tab for you - it does not appear at all and I have an error. There is a chance to bypass the need to use vpn from the USA for the home tab to work? Thanks
