Cifsmanager on the prime - Asus Eee Pad Transformer Prime

Has anyone have cifsmanager working on the Prime? Installed it but can't mount any shares. Also cifs.ko seems to be missing in /system/lib/modules/ so it might be a kernel problem / unsupported. I've rooted my Prime with nachoroot.

As an alternative that doesn't require root try ES File Explorer, on the LAN tab create entries for your samba shares and access your files that way. Great way to stream media into media players like DicePlayer.

The .ko is not usually in Android kernels by default.
When the Prime's kernel source is available then you could build it, or probably someone will do that and post it on here.
You could try nabbing one built for the Transformer, no idea if they're on the same kernel... probably not but close. In that case the module will refuse to load by default but you can force it (insmod -f I think), sometimes that works.
I seem to remember early days Transformer people nabbing one from the Xoom.

I hope we get the kernel sources for ICS soon, I really need the cifs kernel module (cifs.ko) !

Should be able to build one from the general ICS source tree. Another user built the tun.ko module with it and it works with prime.

Wrong section to post this in buddy, Should have posted this in General or in Q&A.
As for your question, i do not know... Someone here does though. See my sig below for help.
Yeah, thought it was a dev related question sorry. I did search 1st but no info anywhere on the net about getting it to work with the atrix. :-(
We need a working tun.ko, none of the ones I have found have worked. I doubt it will be easy to get without the kernel source from motorola, I have found modules for the same kernel version but those obviously don't work because they are compiled for a different arm version. Hoping a xoom or streak 7 tun.ko will come out soon that might work.
tun.ko
Please let me know if anyone gets this working
I am also in the same boat with you guys, it would be fantastic to have a working OVPN client on this phone.
There are a number of tun.ko modules posted for the Xoom. Unfortunately none match the kernel version that we're using on the Atrix :/
Any updates on this?
Just search the Atrix forum for tun.ko. There is a working one posted.
Look in the dev section. There is one posted in there. Someone just confirmed for me it works with the latest updates..
If we have tun working, will the hamachi for Nokia N770 ( I had an n810, debian linux) work if recompiled? I saw something in the G1 section, but there was problems with tun ... Also might be with tegra 2 as the N810 was Arm7.
Would love hamachi vpn as I use network folders and remote desktop, and somewhat despise vnc (never works for me)

[**SOLVED**] 2.3.12 REenable ad hoc wifi networks under ICS - wpa_supplicant

ICS on the Prime, for many, took a step back and now claims "ad hoc networks are not supported". So, many of us who have been tethering the last few weeks via a tethering app now cannot as ICS is seeing the network as ad hoc and is now reporting that is not supported. I personally used wireless tether under Honeycomb every single day on my Prime. Now, for me, and many, we cannot. I have a whole growing thread in the general area and it really seems this is the root of the issue for those of us that do not have built in wifi hot spots and use a tether app.
So, is this something a dev can sort out? How to get back ad hoc network support under ICS on the Prime? I have seen topics on it in google like this one, but this "fix" did not work.
(BTW - if a mod thinks this is not in the right place and wants to move it to the General thread, please just delete this as there is already a thread there, but a help request in the dev area seemed logical. If not, sorry.)
///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
IT HAS BEEN SOLVED 2.3.12
Based on a post I read the other day, and that I was asked to test today, I decided to try 1 more time and it worked!! But not how I expected. I tried 3 tests... the final one worked!!
So, here is the process:
1. root is required AND make sure you have your file system app (like Root Explorer) set to make files R/W so you can edit/rename/set permissions
2. turn off wifi
3. go into system/bin and rename wpa_supplicant2 to wpa_supplicant2.bak - that's right folks.. it is NOT wpa_supplicant but wpa_supplicant2 that is running the show
3. download the wpa_supplicant file found here post #24 in my other thread
4. unzip it
5. rename it wpa_supplicant2 NOT wpa_supplicant
6. move it to system/bin and paste it
7. set permissions to xxx, x, xxx (columns) - see more details below if confused
8. go back and start up wifi
9. turn on wifi analyzer and you will see (*)AndroidTether with no red Ad Hoc notation!!
10. click to connect
11. surf and tether away!!
No rebooting needed, it is instant
I am using the good old original Wireless tether 2.0.7 app I always used! None of those beta releases and picking settings and blah blah
Yes, I was able to connect right back to my local wifi with no issues as well!
PLEASE hit the thanks button, I worked long and hard on trying to get this to work
#7 details if you don't understand permissions settings
When you set permissions (long press the file) a pop-up opens and it shows 3 columns with 3 checkboxes in each. Each "x" is to be checked
Read...Write...Execute
x..........x..........x
x......................x
x......................x
This is really a super simple fix for rooted devices. Just search the internet for "ad-hoc" and "wpa_supplicant" and you should be able to figure the rest out pretty easily. However, that said, wpa_supplicant form a previous version of Android (Honeycomb, Gingerbread, etc) might not work.

Yep, look in my post above. I did find one, I did try it, it did not work. The wpa_supplicant I used had no affect. I think this is why we need a dev to square it away and with details on how to install for other users.
i think it would be better for u to try and find a dev in irc vs posting a thread in development section when it is more a question or request.

LOL ahh the days or IRC. He means there is an IRC (which I believe stands for Internet Relay Chat?) group/page that you can go to and actually talk (like a chat room I suppose) at that above site. You might get more response from them there. I might pop on there later actually.
I think enabling ad hoc connection is part of the issue. Thing is, the 3rd. party app we used called Wireless Tether is really an Infrastructure tethering method. It worked fine on honeycomb. We know Honeycomb and ICS doesn't support Ad hoc connections. Once we updated to ICS, it changed the way the connection is viewed. Now ICS tells us its an ad hoc connection when its really not. If it were ad hoc, then honeycomb would've never allowed us to connect also.
Since the app is viewed as the wrong connection, ad hoc, its not allowing connection or even network seen in normal settings. Wifi Analyzer can see the network though and also says it ad hoc now. but when you try to connect it will say This connection isn't supported by Android yet.
I got BT PAN method of tethering to work buts its a much slower connection speed. it'll do in the meantime, if needed but the wifi tethering method worked the best n easiest. Seems like phones with built in hotspots feature seem to work along with HTC phones. my phone is Atrix4g and I'm not sure what kind the OP has. Methods that are working for others on their Samsung or HTC phones don't seem to work on ours.
Concisely explained... thanks
(For the record, I use a rooted OG Droid running a simple Pete's ROM - but the issue is pervasive across many many brands)

Actually, the Honeycomb used on the Transformer Prime is perfectly capable of connecting to ad-hoc networks.

interesting. I knew ICS didn't support it and had just read that it started with HC. I never tried my barnacle app, ad hoc, on honeycomb. I always used my wireless tether app.
I wonder why there were several people reporting on Google Android open source page that ad hoc connection wasn't being allowed period. Or why isn't Google/Android allowing this feature across the board.
I have a feeling we will get another update soon to smooth out the initial ICS bugs.
Hey demandarin I did try Barnacle many times... no dice
Anyway, here is some more useful info
I just tried 3 wpa_supplicant files I found for other phones/tablets. None worked. All allowed for wifi fine, none accepted ad hoc.
I have the swap steps down good enough now and know and understand the setup and permissions and such, I feel confident now in the processes to try any wpa_supplicant file. You find one, I have not tried it, I will... but I doubt it will work for 2 reasons
1. it is not specific to our tablet and ICS software
2. we have 2 wpa_supplicant files - that is right 2 - not just 1 so there may be some interdependency as NO thread/forum/blog/post has ever mentioned 2 wpa files
I am sure a dev would know this, but putting it out there that I have tried swapping wpa files to no avail
☞[READ ME 1st] ☆.☆.☆ If YOU DID NOT CREATE "it" THEN IT DOESN'T BELONG IN DEVELOPMENT
A nice sticky at the top of the Dev section where this was first posted. Moved to Q&A
Well, is there anything new to this topic? I think not only a few people are depending on it.
Nothing new. I'm still working on it & emailing devs that fixed the issue in HC before Asus finally fixed it (see my other thread about that for a post I made yesterday)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=21417076&postcount=281
Be rest assured... this issue affects more than just "a few people". I've seen it mentioned on other forums as well. I also suspect it will get worked out in time - but not fast enough for some if us.
Me too. I want my (UK) Asus Prime to connect to Joikuspot
I have ICS and want to use the ad hoc connection on my phone running Joikuspot.
Any news ?
Guys, wireless tether works just fine on the tp with ics if you use version 2.0.7 instead of the current version. I've been tethering my thunderbolt to my tp every day since I got it in Dec 22 with both ics and honeycomb.

I seriously wish people would research the true issue before just posting up that "it works"... there is a whole HUGE thread that explains why it does not AND IF IT DOES why it does work for you and not others.
Not only that... there are whole trial and error tests with ALL versions of Wireless tether - including all beta versions.

Wanna know why people leave XDA? Because when they post things that definitely DO work for them and others, people immediately jump down their throat and try to make them feel like idiots. I have no idea why 2.0.7 works for me and several friends that own both primes and tbolts but it does. Period.

Kernel compile error

Hi guys I have built many kernels on the wildfire s for cm7 but I noticed that ksgl was not getting compiled so I added it to the build and it compiles but at the end of compiling I get this error and can't think of away to fix it so has anyone got any ideas please?
http://pastebin.com/Agern504
Sent from my HTC Wildfire S using xda premium
This looks like the feature you enabled ("ksgl") depends on some other features to be enabled in your kernel. The most generic way of trying to resolve this is to grep kernel source for names of functions it can't find (from error messages), i.e. "internal_pwr_rail_ctl", "clk_round_rate". If you can't find those, then oops, your kernel misses some source parts, which is unfortunately common issue with source code drops.
Otherwise, note in which file(s) those functions are *defined* (not just referenced). Then, see in the directories of those files, which Kconfig setting enabled them. Then enable them in your .config, then recompile. Repeat until you get it built.
This may seem as too complicated, but is essence of kernel hacking - once you master this, you can hack anything.
And well, sorry if you already knew this ;-)

[Users][4.0]ICS 4.0.4 support/discussion thread

Well, that time has come. I feel like our ROM is stable enough that I can finally proide support for it without you guys (unintentionally) clogging up the dev thread.
If you have a question, POST IT HERE. If you want to ask about install issues, how to get into devving, or rabid toasters, POST IT HERE. I am closing off the dev thread now that this is created. If you post there without a constructive helpful comment (I will put up criteria there), you will get yelled at, beaten, and sent to slink back to your hole from whence you came.
Okay, now that that's over, I will be providing support in this thread. I am not mean, scary, nasty, or like to drown puppies for fun, despite what the impression the above may give you. I am actually a very helpful person (as most pre-existing members here will agree), and will try to help you, even if you think it's a stupid question.
One rule here: Search first!
I cannot emphasize how important this is. As I said, I am more than happy to answer questions, but for the love of god please don't post something like "wherez the ICS guyzz, I don;t see it in this thrad, this forum sukks". Please use search first before posting. Thank you, and have a nice day.
Well, have fun, and I will answer any questions you have (even if they don't directly relate to ICS).

Between devs yes, we use Gtalk on a daily basis, and has been invaluable in getting work done quickly. It would be interesting to use skype and/or Gtalk for support, although we would need a dedicated account for that (and we are currently locked out of our Nova Gmail account, because we forgot the password ).
Not trolling here, but just wondering. Since when did discussion become development? Shouldn't this be in general?

This is a subsection of our development thread, and while it may be better placed in general, it is best here, as we remove the chance of people who create accounts just to complain, and we obtain easier access for users.

I would hold off, but only for a little while longer, there are a few details (market download fix and proper sdcard support) that need to be added into the next ROM build so you don't have to ADB push things or use terminal to enter code after every boot, once those issues are fixed then it should be a good daily. But, if your comfortable and know how to ADB push files and stuff like that then go for it, just remember you WILL be charging it EVERY night due to the deep sleep bug inherited from the CM7 kernel that was used as the base for our CM9 kernel.

My milestones that need to be crossed for daily usage would be:

if/when Oisis gets a 3.0.x kernel up and going (after he gets his player) hopefully the deep sleep bug will be no more, since its a carry over from the CM7 base kernel and if we have a new kernel that should solve that issue, and should get us to where bluetooth, camera and H/W acceleration could all be possible aswell.
Han, while we wait for Oisis to get his player and do his magic can we get one more build that has the fixed vold.fstab to have both internal and external memory working normally without having to ADB push files to the player and the market fix (if there's an easy way to do it)?

A build with a fixed vold.fstab is possible but for the market fix, this is something related to the initrd that actually needs one more line of code for it to be activated lool.

A file explorer? I think I will just fix the kernel so that the drmserver can work on boot. As for the vold.fstab, I cleaned all my repo so it will take a long time before I can get one, I will get it more presumably on the weekend.

Can I connect my Xbox One controller to this device?

Ok, so I've seen that some users have been able to connect this controller to devices like the Nexus 5, so I'm wondering if it's possible on the N9?
I found this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eDQqMH4POFQ [1] and followed the instructions.
However, the app it recommends (USB/BT JoystickCenter Free) using hasn't worked for me so far. I get to the step where I enable the touchscreen driver, and I get a message that says "Can not get access to '/dev/uinput'. Please install a Custom ROM with root rights."
I'm still at stock on this tablet, but it is rooted. Super SU is installed and working well with all other root apps.
I checked Super SU, the JoystickCenter has been granted superuser permissions in it.
Anyone have any advice on what to do? Anyone get a controller working with it?
I googled the issue and found out that some devices need a special custom kernel to enable this. Are any of the existing custom kernels set up for controller support?
I'd love to pull this off, because I just got KOTOR for Android and would love to use a controller with it.
Any help would be appreciated
Same here.
Flashing a custom kernel might help. I guess you need a kernel that provides the /dev/uinput device.
"uinput is a linux kernel module that allows to handle the input subsystem from user land. It can be used to create and to handle input devices from an application. "
I've got the same problem on my Oneplus One, the controller is recognized but I can't switch on the J>T option wich is vital to make the controller work...
Anyone has a solution ?
Did you see the FAQ page for the app:

No specific tips for N9, but several general purpose tips. As you pointed out, the main cause of failure is a kernel without device support.
On the YouTube vid you linked, someone posted in the comments that setting SELinux to Permissive helped him out.
I was gonna try this out, but the app has been pulled from the store. If it gets reinstated, I'll try it with the custom Rom I'm running (Dirty Unicorns 9.2 test build, LP5.1)

Hey, can one of you guys post the apk for the free version of the app. The app is no longer available on the PlayStore, and the developer doesn't have an XDA page. A Google search only brings up suspicious warez sites.
