I was wondering if it is possible create a wifi hotspot using my x10a without using the cables.
Well u can root your phone and then install barnacle or a wifi tether app to convert ur phone into a wifi router. ;-)

will i still need a cable to hook up my phone?
Nop. with barnacle you will have an wifi connection. Anyways, you will want to have your charger at hand, as it eats battery.

My barnacle works. I made sure it worked before i put in the wpa key setting. Try doing that. I am not sure if it works for macs.

My X10 can't detect my home wifi... What can I do? It can detect wifi anywhere but not my home wifi... So, I guess it's the problem with home router. Btw, I'm using Innacomm W3400V wireless modem... Thanks in advance!!
What ROM r u running because some ROMs might not not have wifi working if its in early developmental stages or u dont have the latest update?

Check your router settings it might have something to do with the isolation setting I can't think of the name of it but I will hopefully

A lot of the newer roms are also having issues with any router using WPA2 encryption (can't say for sure with WEP, since I don't have any to test with). But if you're open (no encryption) it'll connect just fine, but WPA/WPA2, it'll have some connection problems. Lots of people are having this issue, there's a few fixes that work for some, but not for others. Search is a great friend for that.
try making a second ssid for your phone on ur router
If all else fails and you need a new router...
save a few bucks on a router and use this instead.

I use this on several USB dongles on the end of some long usb leads.
Gets me wifi everywhere.
even use this on laptop in my car, wifi hotspot any where "we play dota after work"
Reset your wi-fi password if u hav 1. Otherwise check if your phonevcan detect other networks, and check if other people can join your network. good luck.

will try later when i go home... Thanks...
ok, should be your router's problem then. Sign onto your ISO's account settings if it only allows commuters to connect. Some router's default settings are configured like that. Can other devices (not computers) connect to it home wifi?
Like I said, if u hav security code, reset it.

Please help, i am using xperia s with stock ics and i am completely unable to share internet with my laptop. I have tried usb tethering, wifi hotspot, bluetooth tethering even downloaded usb tether pro and nothing simply works . What to do?

is your driver instaled correctly?
Yes i think they are. Usb tethering aside, When i try using wifi hotspot it connects properly with the laptop, signal strength also shows excellent but there is still the 'no Internet access' pop up on the laptop. I have also switched on mobile data and 3G

Wifi tethering is broken in the ICS stock ROM for most (if not all) Xperia devices . I've been trying various custom ROMS for my Xperia Active today but just encounter other issues (e.g. camera doesn't work with PAranoid Android)
Hi, I havnt used the stock ics build, but if u need teathering to work try installin Erachter Rom. I always use portable hotspot and works fine(as long as I have data reception). Not sure about Bluetooth or usb teathering though.

heh? wifi tethering works fine both in ics stock (and custom-stock) and miui...
for usb tether.. use pdanet.. works fine too.
xperia s.
Working Fine, I'm using Stock Kernel With Stock RoM !!! WiFi Tethering is Working Fine For Me ..... maybe problem in your drivers
I just installed the MiRaGe kernel (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2175191&highlight=tether+app) on my Sprint Evo 3D and everything is working great except I cant get the hotspot or wifi tether apps to work.
Is there a certain app that works with that kernel or do I have to change a setting or soemething? When I try to activate the hotspot app the wifi turns on but the data wont connect and I get an error. When I try the Wifi Tether app it appears that the data is working but the wifi doesn't turn on.
I am running the stock ICS rom.
Try the FoxFi app
