Hello, I want to know if the mobile Hotspot option is avalaible on the 2.2.1 rom and if it is Infrastructure mode.
My friend told me that his galaxy S can do Infrastructure mode and I wanted to know if it is avalaible for the x10
thanks,

Hi,
Can anyone give me some idea how can I turn my X10 mini into a wifi hotspot? I found many people are asking similar question but I did not notice any good answer. So this is possible or not?
Use Barnacle: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=740698
search for it in the market
you could found that information in the wiki or with some searching in this post in the x10 mini/pro General Forum
I use Barnacle Wifi Tether as Cyberwuulf already said.
It supports WEP encryption on my x10 mini pro, and works perfectly every time, super fast - And ive sent in a few good ideas to the dev which he promised to implement in the future.
It works with my X10 Mini with PC connection, but fails to get connected by Xperia X8, and I'm still working out with other phones tomorrow... Please note that my X10 Mini is running 2.1, rooted.

And I got it works with my X8 too, before I read the following Ad-hoc mode only:
Can you make Barnacle use infrastructure mode instead of ad-hoc?
If one could make an Android phone look like a real access point (rather than an ad-hoc network), then it would improve compatibility and allow better security. Unfortunately, to make a wifi client behave like an access point requires fundamental changes in the device driver. The hardware vendors of the wireless interfaces present in most Android devices did not include such capability.
What one can do, however, is use Connectify to make their laptop running Windows 7 appear as a real access point. In combination with Barnacle it should be possible to connect many restricted devices (PS3, DSi, etc.) to the Internet.

and my damn old Palm TX and a notebook running Vista surf the Internet with both Android phones with Barnacle, and it's a freeware ;-)

Thanks for the help guys
hi all,
Got a rooted x10 mini pro running 2.1 and tomorrow getting hold of an Archos 70 tablet. Now the archos doesnt have 3g so i was wondering whether i can wirelessly tether the phone to the tablet?
I have EasyTether pro on the phone but that only works through USB.
Anyone any ideas?
download "barnacle wifi tethering" from the android market.
thats the only way for wireless tethering, i'm knowing. its also only with wep and not wpa2, but in the options you can set a notification, that informs you for every device that connects to your wifi, so you have still an overview who uses your 3g connection.
Thanks for that but it didnt work.
Apparently i need to do it via bluetooth or USB so trying to find a tether program that works through bluetooth.
I would love to tethering my X10 Mini with BT or Wifi/Wlan, but...
The only way that works for me is by USB-wire.
Paid for the EasyTether, installed on the X10 Mini (works with the Pro, too) Needed to set USB connection to Debugging Mode too. "Settings - Programs - Development - ticking the USB-debugging Mode"
Sorry My X10 Mini is all in Swedish and the english menu names are my guesswork
On each Computer that you want to Tether with the X10 Mini/Pro, Needs a program(download and run the install file). Giving you an EasyTether icon on the activity bar.
Thougt you can only tether one comp at the time.I guess that thru the Tethered computer, other comps can access the Internet, in a home network.
Have so far tested a Netbook running Win7starter, a Win7Home Pro desktop and a WinXP sp3 Nettop as well as a Ubuntu 10.10 Netbook (Yes, there is a Ubuntu (Debian?) EasyTether program)
Since you're rooted, why not load a custom Froyo? I'm interested in the mini pro for this very reason and am curious if people have been successful in using this device as a handy tether unit that can do some keyboarded terminal work in process.

i have the same prob... i'm rooted and can't find bt (or wifi) tethering options in my 2.1 rom (Cyanogen Froyo CM6-Latest 3.03).
Is there a way to make bt accept tethering profiles?
Thank-you
Now I use the MiniCM6-1.0.2 [Update 13/6/11] ROM with my X10 Mini and I'm just satisfied.
But one point isn't optimal: with this ROM there is no possibility to do WiFi tethering with WPA. The only tethering app, which is working is Barnacle and this only can WEP.
So i'm searching for a ROM which offers tethering with WPA or WPA2.
Unfortenately there are no discriptions about this feature on the ROM overview.
Perhaps somebody can call me a ROM with the WPA(2)-tethering feature.
First off, my laptop works fine with my phone's ad-hoc tether, but i want to use internet on my psp and vita later down the road as well when i need it, but i can't find any way to tether my X10 other than in ad-hoc mode, which is not supported by most consoles/handhelds.
i found a few guides but it wouldn't work. Would either not broadcast anything or do ad-hoc mode with various apps.
Any way to tether X10 in infrastructure mode instead of ad-hoc?
Ok, so i tried everything and only phone's native tether (under settings, stock ROM latest updates) gives infrastructure, or at least what seems like it, problem arises when i want to access internet and get DNS server error... there are pretty much no settings to mess with there so i am at a loss really. USB tether gives no internet to my laptop either over the native tether under settings.
wireless tether for root users does however work perfectly, but only in ad-hoc mode. The beta version people use on different phones (change device profile select one of the master methods and go) to get infrastructure instead of ad-hoc doesn't work at all, i haven't tried all profiles but on few i tried even though app says tether is on no devices see it, SSID broadcast set to ON.
So any ideas? Could it be provider nonsense? i bought it second hand and it seems to have been unlocked from Orange, but ROM doesn't seem to have all the bloatware from Orange(just news and traffic pretty much) without that I wouldn't even have noticed that it is from Orange.
Would flashing a different ROM help? could it be Orange's ROM is blocking it? Otherwise i might need a new phone
Android isn't able to detect ad-hoc network. There is a program called "connectify" to make discoverable version of ad-hoc for android devices

I want to tether my ps vita and my laptop to my SE xperia X10. i use tether app on my phone to share phone's internet with my console and laptop when i am not home.
also on my laptop i got intel's my wifi app that allows me to rebeam/share internet which is sufficient for my need on my laptop, though thanks for the tip
problem is making my phone tether in infrastructure and not ad-hoc mode. i gone in as much depth as i can about it in the last post, though if you need any more info i'd be glad to provide it if it would help to find a solution...
It is just a stock Xperia X10 with all official updates and rooted... 2.3.3android 2,1,71baseband.
would using a different rom help?

Well, sorry but I don't know how to do that, but changing ROM won't help

^ This rom supports infrastructure mode tethering.
I am in the same boat as you friend but I want a different custom rom. I have upgraded my touchpad to ICS which has no support for ad-hoc networks.
I was using the stock rom above for awhile which supported infrastructure mode which was working perfectly but in my world I want to stick with Miui on my x10.
I updated the wifi teather app on the miui rom to the newest one and was playing with the different setting for different devices. I was able to get the tether app to start in master mode with some of the settings for other devices but I was never able to get the touchpad to fully connect to one of these networks. I had it connect briefly when I put a static ip matching the settings on the wifi tether app but it would not make any internet connection.
If we have the ability in a stock rom, why can't it be ported?
Hi have a Samsung Galaxy S3 with Android 4.1.1 JellyBean.
My provider wants additional money for tether so I wanted to use ClockworkMod Tether noted here that the provider does not tether or yes? But the app works for me just as it did not temper times she goes. can anyone suggest another app tether where I noted that without the provider can it?
Sorry for my bad English'm German
PS: My phone is rooted
