Hey frnds,
I am a new guy on Android platform. I would need your advice on how to have internet connection via PC-USB (without Wifi). I am talking in respect to SGS2.
Your help would be deeply appreciated. Thanks in advance.
P.S.: This is my first post on this forum. Let me know if I am missing something.
Settings > Wireless and Network > Tethering and Portable Hotspot
There is an option for usb tethering.

nah prefers the spoon feed method
also if OP os talking bout using his/her Internet on his/her phone from the PC
Internet>computer>phone(via USB)
then that isnt possible only
Internet>Phone>computer is
On htc devices you could use the pc internet connection to browse with the phone while connected to usb..sadly cant do that on this phone

Anybody???? This function could really help me as well...
you're looking for reverse tethering i think.
for some reason it seems to be much harder than it should be on android.
you might want to try this :

I don't think it's possible via usb... The best thing you can do is buy a wifi router..

there is a option on HTC that when you connect your phone to PC, it asks you one more point "connect to PC's internet". but i's interesting, if is that possible on ACE.

Some networks don't let you use your laptop etc..to connect to the internet via your phone unless you pay extra.
My ace is locked to three there is a option in setting to Tether via usb or wifi but no mater winch setting i use it will not work.
However on my old HTC HD touch generic i can connect my usb cable to my laptop and go on-line with the same sim. Iam going to try and branded my ace once i know how.

Not share you Phone internet, but PC internet to Phone.
CHEERS!
What about sharing the connection by WiFi? Through Ad-Hoc?
I know that there's an option in Linux, but I'm not so sure for Windows.

Try to download Connectify and turn your laptop into access point (if your wifi card supports it). Anyway, buying wifi access point is the best solution.

In Windows he can set up ad hoc network, but Ace doesn't support it. I tried to look for working edited wpa_supplicant file, but i didn't find it.
Devs any hope for this yet?

Virtual WiFi adapter for Windows 7
You could also change your WiFi adapter into a virtual WiFi Miniport and share the internet connection if you have windows 7.. It acts as a Wireless access point and also please note that your hardware should support in order to create a virtual WiFi.. Just follow these instructions..
http://mintywhite.com/windows-7/set-windows-7-wifi-hotspot-quick-tip/
+1 mr., been +1ing twice tonight.. I also had this issue, decided to stop my ace's data plan and my brother had a decent connection on the desktop. Sadly it was our all time fav Win XP and we're too lazy to add a WIFI/WLAN card to it.
Maybe having a Terminal Emulator (since we can't do any adb commands when tethering) to establish an interface/eth0, activating the USB tether (not the wireless) and configuring a connection on the Windows would help? I've tried that, but met no luck on Windows part.
I used reverse usb tethering on galaxy mini before purchase ace. Its simple script to give usb0 ip address and some setting on gateway, dns.
Hi all,
Is it possible to share my PC or Laptop's current internet connection with my Galaxy S 2? What I mean by that is I want to be able to plug in my phone to my laptop via usb, and use the PC's internet instead of using my 3G data.
This is separate to things like making the laptop or pc broadcast its connection via wifi, I'm only talking about sharing the connection via usb. Is it possible? Even if it means flashing a certain ROM?
That is a htc sense only feature afaik

That link is apparently only for Android 2.2, and it was written in 2010.
Is there no other way, no app or anything I can download to make this work? Surely the functionality is there...? Any particular ROM that can do this even?
I too am very interested in this feature. I actually asked the same question before:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1238358
But I got rubbished by some stuck up prick...
Okay,
what I want is very simple (on HTC devices), internet share with USB cable. I have tried CellPhone Manager, PDANet program, noone works with win7 64bit. Its now 2 days that Im trying to find a solution, but i didnt...
Please dont tell me that the phone of the year is so stupid and it sucks me cos its impossible to connetc to the internet with USB cable
Well if you got WiFi in pc
Well,If you got WiFi on your PC.You can share you're Internet right away!!

Install kies, install usb driver from kies menu, connect phone with cable and let windows do the installation thing, then start usb tethering from phone menu.

does anyone got a solution for reverse tethering ?
i had a htc wildfire S and it has an option "Relais internet" it appears auto when usb cable connected. it connects my phone to computers internet.
Iam really so disappointed to don't see this feature on SGS2
and PLZZZZZZZZZ for people who ask why don't use wifi.
well I have a 3G connexion in my computer ( no rooter just a usb 3G network adapter). and my computer wireless card intel 4965AGN IT DOESNT SUPPORT hosted network which means no way to create a wifi hotspot (or use connectify or virtual rooter because its the same thing as creating a hosted network)
ad-hoc network can't be detected also with my sgs2 with official firmware JB 4.1.2 (XWLSD)
could anyone help please.
Thank you

Well there was a "reverse tether" app...
I had it but haven't tried it anytime coz I don't have internet on my PC anymore...so don't know for sure if it works..
It might just work for you...
I know this is very frustrating..has happened to me too when I had just purchased the phone...hadn't got any solution at that time so ended up purchasing a WiFi router..
Press thanx if I helped...

I am using connectify to share the internet connection of PC to my phone through wifi. It is free and you can download it and try! I am happy with the above said software as i am flashy. whenever i flash new ROM and sync with internet of PC through connectify and all my data is back in just couple of minutes.
Through USB cable......I still dont know the solution!

What you are looking for is called Tethering.
You can enable and configure it on your phone in
menu => Settings => Wireless and Network => Tethering and Mobile Hotspot =>
a) USB Tethering, if you want to be connected via USB to your PC, or
b) Configure mobile WLAN hotspot, if you want to connect your PC via WLAN with your phone.
There is also a short help in this settings menu.
Good luck !
^i think what the OP mean is how to share the internet connection of his/her PC to his/her SGS2 (not SGS2 to PC).

So, it is tethering the other way round.
My idea: install and configure a WLAN hotspot on your PC.
I do not know any solution to get it done by using USB cable.

hi all,
i have a Samsung galaxy R with stock 2.3.5 & i was wondering if there is any app / setting that let's u share your PC's broadband connection with android phone via USB cable . the thing is, i have a wired ADSL router at my place (Non-WiFi) so i just simply want to explore my options before i just go ahead & buy the WiFi router. i tried goggling that same but it seems there is no straight forward app that let u do so in Samsung phone, my bro is having HTC explorer & it has option called "Internet pass through" which let u do exactly what i need. any help is highly appreciated
sorry if i posted in wrong section, i'm a newbie here
Hoi,
did you think about Bluetooth-Tethering also ?
On that way you can connect your phone via your pc to the internet.

thx for the reply... but that's exactly opposite of wht i want, i dnt have connection on my phone to share with my Pc but vice versa (i have broadband connection on my pc to share with my phone WITHOUT WiFi router, via USB or bluetooth)
Use Connectify software to share your wired broadband over Wifi
