[Q] USB/Wifi Tethering not working? (openOptimus build 2.202.1) - Optimus One, P500, V General

OpenOptimus is currently the best ROM i've tried so far on my LGP500, and I would like to stick with it, but USB & Wifi Tethering does not work!
When I try to activate USB or Wireless Tethering from Settings, It goes on and then right off again and I get a tiny "error" message..
I use tethering as my main internet connection on my pc, so this is a major problem.. Is there a workaround or a fix for this?
Is this a problem with the rom, kernel or perhaps the baseband update?
Will flashing another kernel cause problems with openOptimus?

same problem here, try to download open garden tether from market it work for me

This worked somewhat ok, but the tethering fails to turn off properly and the phone freeze when I do so. The same case with other tethering apps from the market.
[EDIT]
Flashing the latest franco kernel fixed the issue with 3rd party tethering apps.. I am now able to turn tethering on and off with the "Open Garden Wifi Tether" app..
franco.Kernel.v1.1-29082011 (testing version)

What kernel are you using
Sent from my LG Optimus One P500 using XDA App

im using the default kernel in the 2.202.1 build of openoptimus
franco v1 ?
--- 2.6.35.14-franco.kernel-gingerbread+
is this a kernel problem or a rom bug=?

don't know if it's kernel or ROM problem, spend a few hour goggling for an answer
but couldn't find one myself
i re flash the v1-16082011 kernel and no problem with using the open garden

I'll try flashing the kernel version you're using then...
Can I use other kernel versions, or perhaps other kernels like the PaoloM70, without getting conflicts with the openOptimus v2 rom?

How to fix the built in acces point? The third party apps can only do ad hoc mode while the built in is infrastructure mode

Its a kernel problem flash paolo v6 kernel it will work

Wifi and USB tethering dosn't work with Official GIngerBread and its Derivatives like OpenOptimus,Aga bla bla with the Franco kernel.
it seems it works with the Paulo Kernel.
open Garden works fine, but when u turn it off it screws around. i used to use 2.3.3 v20g Romanian Firmware and yes ofc, after i use it (open garden) the Battery used to die like crazy. a Reboot Solves the Problem here.
i dont know for sure if it works with the Stock Kernel.
but if u compare Official GIngerbread and its derivatives to
CM7 or Andy's Phoenix
its totally Rubbish in all the ways.

Before that I was using the factory kernel, and the bluetooth was working just fine. I don't know what happens, maybe if I flash it again.
experienced same problem here
tho i experienced that on mik_os' cm7 port beta 6.3
but i found out it doesnt matters andy's or mik's or whatever kernel
i have tried the follows:
- unpair all connections of bluetooth before flashing kernel
- reflash the rom and kernel
make sure:
- dont restore anything about bluetooth with titanium INCLUDING bluetooth file transfer app and data, just clean install it back from market
and my problem was solved
hope this helps
I just upgraded to kernel 14.1 and bluetooth is working, thanks to all for your help.

I am assuming you have installed CM7 6.6.1
Try installing the more stable CM7 6.5.7 and then flash the latest franco .32 kernel. Nobody has wifi problems with it and neither should you.
actually i am running CM7 6.5.7 and 43 v19 kernal

Is the problem with your Wifi network? Did you try connecting to the same Wifi network through another device like your laptop? If there is no problem with the Wifi connection, then in 'Wifi settings' set some different 'Channel number' and also set the 'Wifi sleep policy' to 'Never'.

Can you mention here the ROM and kernel you're using? Please provide the exact version number for both. Because, if you're using Mik's 6.6.1 and Franco's latest .35 kernel, you should not be facing this issue.

Yes. I used 6.5.7 the previous week and found it very stable. Now I've flashed v6.6.1 and find it more stable and smooth than 6.5.7. With franco's .35 kernel the phone now works like a beast.

Hope your workpplace don't have IP limit, have you tried other wifi like home if it connects?
Sent from my LG-P500 using XDA Premium App
Just to make sure that the problem is not at the level of the WiFi router I would re-install the ROM that you had before (or restore nandroid backup if you have one) and confirm that you can actually connect.
My first guess is that since this is a Workplace WiFi network, the admin might have blocked the MAC address of your phone.
Actually i did install my old stock rom and it worked normally, but when i install CM7 i it only works on my home wifi and nowhere else

If it works at your home, then obviously no problem with the phone. It's either the office Wifi connection or the admin might have blocked it. You're supposed to work in office and not browse

wifi not working on FeraLab

Hey Good day all, my WI-FI is not working, with the FeraLab v3. When tried to access it , its says error, not sure if anyone one else have have tried it but its not working for me. I really love the work that I'm seen in this ROM, one thing tho, the menu background is way to dark and not the best, if you could use the theme background that would be nice. thanks much
P.s I'm new and i have no idea were to start with build Roms Help.
Hi I'm using FeraLab v3 also, it's an awesome rom but I had a wi-fi problem too. I flashed the wi-fi module for the kernel I'm using, Doomkernel v6 and now it's works fine, even though the instructions say I didn't need to. You could try reinstalling the rom or flash the wi-fi module for the kernel your using. I've had some minor issues after flashing the rom for the first time and had them fixed after a reinstall.
As for the background, it is dark but I like it. As for changing the theme you could flash a new one, but it may alter things in the rom, not sure, can't help you there, I'm way too much of a noob still

what kernel do you have? most of the times is for the kernel unless the rom has a bug in it, try to find the kernel version and in all versions the developers post the wifi modules too, as a zip file, follow the instructions and flash it, in 5 minutes you will have your wifi back to life.
Flash relevant WiFi modules for the kernel u using.

Remember to do a few reboots before installing patch, then install patch, theme then start the Rom up and do a few more reboots.
That's how you should really finish on installing it

[Q] Need help with kernel

Hi.
I need some help with this ROM (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1846760) because when I install it with the normal kernel I have problems with the WiFi and so, as it is written in the thread, I flash the kernel that fixes the problems, the only problem is that the ROM becomes very unstable.
So, with the normal kernel the ROM is fast and stable, but has the WiFi problem. With the kernel that fixes the WiFi the WiFi works just fine but the ROM becomes very unstable and is always rebooting.
Can you suggest me another kernel or another ROM. I like this one because it is very clean and fast.
Thanks for your attetion.:good:
Happy Holidays.

On the "normal kernel" you might haven't flash its wifi module.
On the fixed kernel, the kernel may not suitable with the rom.
Try fera kernel. Dont forget to load its wifi module

Strange Wifi problem [Mini Pro]

Hello guys! I'm having a strange issue with all ICS and JB roms (stock or custom, doesn't matter, same problem):
- I can browse, and while I'm browsing with the default browser, the wifi works really well.
Let me show and example:
If I open an app like TuneIn Radio, I can only hear the station while I'm opening pages in the browser. If I just stop browsing, the connections seems to be lost. The same with Google Play, as long I'm browsing, it works like a charm and the downloads complete. Otherwise, the downloads get stuck.
I've never seem this kind of problem before, and other devices and the same device with GB roms works well.
Someone can help?
Thank you!

Try flashing another kernel via FastBoot. I strongly suggest MESA Hybrid v3.5 or LuPus v3.
New kernel always comes with a fixes..i agreed with Ctragas...and click thanks

I've already tried Lupus and had same problem, unfortunatelly.. I will try flashing the MESA Kernel by the end of the day and see if it will solve the issue.
Many thanks!

Don't forget to flash WiFi modules (ti-wlan_v3.zip) via CWM after flashing LuPus kernel. With MESA Hybrid v3.5 you don't have to do that because WiFi module is integrated in the kernel, but you have to flash the appropriate module according to ROM type (ICS->stock, CM9, CM10).

exact the same problem ,on GB it was well but after trying ICS and JB with many kernels i got unstable connection always connecting and disconnecting i asked 2 days ago in this forum about this problem but got no useful answer i hope that we can solve this
@mizoo
Is this it? Connecting-authenticating then loop?
If yes u can solve it by using static ip address instead of dhcp
Yes i already set it as static its better but also disconnecting after while
