enable tethering on stock ics rom? - AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717

I'm running the official att ics rom rooted and cwm. Apps like wifi tether do not work. What do I have to do to make tethering work?
Thanks.

Here is what I did to get it to work;
1. Used Titanium Backup Pro, under Backup/Restore... uninstall TetheringProvision.apk.
2. there is an app in the Market called FoxFi, but unfortunately my carrier will not let me download it from the market. If that is the case, on their Market page, they list the link to download the .apk file to install on your Note. This app will allow you to use Wifi and USB tethering.

I just tried that but after starting foxfi it says my wifi turned off and tethering has stopped.

Did you reboot your phone after installing FoxFi? And you are using FoxFi's wifi features, not the phone's default, correct? Just checking here...

Sorry but xda search sucks and is down half the time. I searched before posting and didn't get this in my results. I will try this now.
Edit: thanks that did it but I had to first restore the tethering apk I previously deleted to try foxfi.

OK - I have rooted my phone with Odin, but I am not sure how to flash the .zip file that is mentioned in that link... I am a total noob with android... Any help would be appreciated.

Reboot to download mode: from a turned off phone squeeze both volume up and down at the same time and hold them in. Now push and hold the power button until the phone vibrates, then let go of the power button.
Keep squeezin' those volume buttons until you see the recovery menu.
Choose flash zip. Navigate to your zip. Select and confirm you mean to flash that zip. Wait a few until done.
Reboot normally. But any change to the system can slow down the boot time. Don't fiddle with any buttons for at least a xouple of minutes to let the change settle in.

Unmount memory card and try to install it again you can remount afterwards.
I think my real problem is with the ads-blocker that dont let medscape get to update and download (They say this in their app page on google play). I can install the app but cant get it to download the content needed. So how can i deactivate ad-blocker or another way to get pass this situation?
Sorry if its a noob question, but i really would like to install ICS and have this app
No one can give a little hand?

If you have installed ad-blocker / custom rom / rom toolbox, then please remove and try again. However, when ad-blocker is the issue the app clearly mentions it and i am sure you must have tried it.
How i got it to work
Go to settings ------> developer options -----> uncheck 'Don't keep activities'
This worked for me and a friend of mine.
Hope it helps.

[Q] wifi tethering

Im trying to setup wifi tethering on the x10mp (phone 3G->wifi to a laptop).
I've tried Barnacle (laptop failed to connect to phone), and "wifi tether for root users" (two apps), but both gave an error message that the kernel is missing some components.
has anyone got some wifi tethering app to work on x10mp? and if so, which one and how?
TIA

AW: [Q] wifi tethering
If you are on stock SE firmware, even if you have rooted your phone, Wifi tethering wont work for you, as the stock firmware does'nt support tethering. Here is a link with a list of tutorials and custom ROMs (I think all ROMs from android 2.3 support tethering):
forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1588192
The easiest way would be to install xrecovery on your stock kernel (you'll find one under "stock kernel based custom ROMs) and then flash a GingerBread(2.3) ROM via xrecovery.
Please press thanks if I helped .
Tnx.
Im using the stock SE ROM.
Kernel 2.6.29
Firmware 2.1-update1
Any chance I could get wifi tethering working w/o installing a custom ROM?

Sorry, bro, but I've never heard of anyone gettin tethering to work on SE stock firmware, but custom roms, especially on GB, are really worth it. Why don't you give it a try ?

Don't be afraid of flashing Roms in stock kernel, its simplicity itself. If you have already rooted your phone, here's a quick how-to:
1.Download stericson's busybox from the market & install newest version (currently 1.20.2, I think)
2.Download the zip file in this post
3.Download script manager from the market.
4. Extract the files onto your sdcard so that you find the files "chargemon, busybox, xrecovery.tar, readme.txt, installer" in sdcard/download/xrecovery.
5.Open script manager, give superuser permissions (tick 'browse as root' on first startup), navigate to the folder you extracted and run 'installer' as root (tip on the superuser symbol on the top left corner. When activated, it should be green).
6.Download the Rom you want to flash onto your sdcard, a link you'll find in my earlier post(only choose from stock kernel based roms)
7.Reboot.
8. When the SE logo appears, press back button quickly several times. You will boot into xrecovery.
9.Make a backup via xrecovery.
10.wipe data via xrecovery and install your downloaded rom, surprise, via xrecovery.
11.reboot&enjoy!

Looking forward to the files you've mentioned.
1. Can I create a backup of the current kernel & ROM (the SE stock ones which the phone arrived with)?
In case something breaks during the process, I could hopefully revert to these.
2. Can I get the wifi tethering functionality without updating the kernel, only by installing a new ROM?
When I tried the "wifi tether for root users" app it showed an error message that the kernel is missing some components.
Xrecovery
So, here is the zip.
PS: All credits go to the guys in the following link (quangnhut123), he uploaded the files, I only wrote the installer script .
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=950324
Change in step 4:
4. Extract the files onto your sdcard so that you find the files "chargemon, busybox, xrecovery.tar, readme.txt, installer" in sdcard/download/xrecovery.
Yes, you are able to restore your previous system via an xrecovery backup.
Please press thanks if this worked for you. If it didn´t please tell me what went wrong, I will fix asap.
NOTE: I havn't tested this yet, because I havn't had time to reflash & root my X10 MP. As said above, if it doesn't work, I will fix .
When I used the stock ROM, I used brancle for wifi tethering, It worked. Unfortunately, I do not remeber the exact settings. But I'm sure, It works.

Thanks Kilory.
What about my question regarding the kernel? as I mentioned, when I tried the other tethering app, the error it displayed was that the kernel is missing some components. so If I use the stock kernel, and only install a new ROM, will this still allow wifi tethering, or do I need to flash a new kernell as well?

Well, I don't think your kernel is missing components, that would
1. Disprove the links in your post and
2. Disprove what tommy posted.
Also, I'm pretty sure that when I was on Minicm7Pro (with stock kernel), I had wifi tethering.
PS.: Bro, if you are using your browser for posting and you are logged in, there's a "Thanks"-button on the bottom left of every post, or if you are using the android app, just click on a post and the option thanks (danke) will appear. Pressing this will for one thing be easier than writing thanks in a new post, and also, many people like it when their thanks meter goes up and will thank you in return.
PPS.: If you alredy know all that and I've just made a fool of myself, sorry . Besides, I'm just testing the method I described myself, I'll give you feedback as soon as everything works .

First of all, did the script work (yet)? Have you tried it yet? Sorry, I havn't tested yet, but I will do so today.
Secondly, MiniCM7pro always worked well for me, but if you like the stock SE style, try SonyStyle by the same developer.

Actually, I remembered, that i can simply see the settings in my wife's mini, which is with the stock ROM, and uses Brancle. I just tried it, works flawlessly. The phone is only rooted, nothing more. Here are the settings:
SSID - elka
BSSID - empty
Wireless encyption - five low-case letters, no numbers, no symbols, for example - abcde, ASCII encoding
Channel - 6
Custom Wifi Ad-hoc - none
Skip wpa_supplicnat - not checked
Auto Associate - not checked
Accsess control - not checked
New client actions - Notify (checked), Sound - Play a ringtone, Light - empty, Allow - empty
Local mode - checked,
DHCP - Gw - 192.168.5.1, Mask - 255.255.255.0, First Host - 100, Lease time - 1200 sec, DNS1 and 2 - empty
NAT - leave everything default
WAN- rmnet0
LAN - empty
What do you mean when you say "laptop failed to connect to phone" - tries, but can't get address, or nothing happens? If nothing happens, try to press the "Associate" button.
I remember, that there was something strange with the password - make it as simple as you can. If it is not working, try temporarily to disable encryption.
I cannot tell the version of Brancle I am using, but Market doesn't offer me an update, so it must the latest one, at least for the stock x10 mini with stock ROM. If you know how to check it - tell me, i will do it.
And something else - check the security settings of the laptop - are the Ad-Hoc networks and WEP encryption allowed? Brancle makes Ad-hoc only, not infrastructural.
Good luck!
EDIT/
As I see from market, the version of Brancle is 0.6.7 (evo)

Tnx Tomny.
I set the same settings as u did, still no luck.
The barnacle log shows: WIFI: failed to reassociate
Im using linux (debian), with network manager, which should be able to connect to an adhoc network,
any ideas?
TIA
Update:
It works for only a single time. The gnome network manager defined the wireless network as "infrastructre", and I changed it to "adhoc".
It connected once, but Im not being able to reconnect again now. ;-(
any suggestions?
Try to connect some other device, to see whether the problem is in the device, or in the Mini/Brancle. What do you mean, saying "not being able to reconnect"? - You cannot see network, you see it, but nothing happens when trying to connect, you can try to connect, but cannot aquire address (ie stuck on "connecting...")

well, the log on barnacle shows "failed to reassociate", but not much else.
how did u define the network on the pc/laptop? any special settings there besides being an "adhoc"?
Could you please check what is the kernel version & OS build number on ur x10mp? (they are listed under settings, in one of the submenus there).

why gps doesnt work? just keep on searching..

I had v10e stock. Worked good.
Then rooted to 10a and updated with a cwm backup 10h.
And gps didnt work.... not that i use it alot but yeah sucks.... something i need it.
So cwm backups arent that great. Is cool but yeah. Costum roms are better. Still waiting for one.
Re: why gps doesnr work? just keep on searching..
Maybe the app you are using is the problem. Remove it, reboot then reinstall.
If this didn't solve it, do a reset. This will solve all your problems but before doubt this, user the stock backup app to backup your settings,sms and calls, home screen widgets, pre installed apps to sd card. but don't backup your downloaded apps.

Its telling you what file isn't there, which may not be there on a Stock everything. But just get a root explorer and navigate to the root of the phone then to the folder named dev then look for a file named uinput. If its not there you might need to flash a kernel. However, I am pretty certain that file should be there on all linux systems.
EDIT: If you need, i could write a simple app to look and test if the file is there. But it should be simple enough using a root explorer

I personally use and LOVE ktoonsez's TouchWiz kernel. However, any TouchWiz kernel found in the T-Mobile Android Original Development thread should work. Also, before you do that, if you really wanna stay truly stock, run these commands in a terminal window:
Note: Every new line means you press enter after the typed text.
su
ls -l /dev/uinput
and then paste the results here. that should tell you everything about the file, including if it exists or not.

Ok thanks. I'll have to flash back to stock first. Im currently running cm11.
Edit: I flashed my restored my phone back to TouchWiz stock rom I had backed up. Then just flashed ktoonsez's latest kernel, now it's working. But the file was there when I checked before I flashed the kernel. I think with the stock kernel the app wasn't getting full root access or something to find it.

That could be possible. Or that the kernel was denying any inputs to it that weren't from the system or something. But glad you got it working!

Yes I got it working. But now I'm having the same problem I had with my Moto X where everything works fine then after a minute or 2 il (if that) I can't longer go in to edit mode and none of the mapped touch input works at all. Ex. I start the app, click ime to BT/joystick center turns yellow then I search for controller it finds the controller, I then click JT on turns yellow and everything it's suppose to do. I then back out like it says to do. I'm then able to go into edit mode and set up things as normal. Now here's the problem. Once I set the button I wanted mapped and place it over the the touch button I want it to control it saves and everything but once I go to play it's not even registering anything when I push the controller. Then after a few minutes I can't even get back to edit mode. When I go back into the BT/Joystick center app the JT is now off.
So basically I'm not able to do anything after I mapped the touch buttons to the controller. And then some how the JT turns off by its self. Now one ever helped me when I had the Moto X. Seems the only way for this app to run is with stock. Cause it was working flawless with cm11 on this phone and the Moto X.

That could be possible. Or that the kernel was denying any inputs to it that weren't from the system or something. But glad you got it working!

Yes I got it working. But now I'm having the same problem I had with my Moto X where everything works fine then after a minute or 2 il (if that) I can't longer go in to edit mode and none of the mapped touch input works at all. Ex. I start the app, click ime to BT/joystick center turns yellow then I search for controller it finds the controller, I then click JT on turns yellow and everything it's suppose to do. I then back out like it says to do. I'm then able to go into edit mode and set up things as normal. Now here's the problem.

sounds like the app is getting garbage collected. Instead of backup out of it, try pressing the home button.

Tbh, it sounds like poor programming. Never used the app personally though. And you say it always works on CM11? It wouldn't surprise me if the kernel is killing the app due to memory loss or something. CM11 probably uses less memory.

Yeah. It sucks. But thanks for all your help. I'll just wait to see if I can try something else.

If you want to give me the apk i could probably mod it to hold a notificiation while you are using the app, that way it can't get killed. Is the app paid or not?
It's paid.
I am also having the same issue (cannot get access to /dev/uinput). I searched for the file using es file explorer and found that file inside sys/modules/uinput. can i just copy paste that inside dev/ ( i am using paranoid android on one plus one.).

[ROM] TWRP stock pre-rooted flash of OK2 for N900P

This is a prerooted stock ROM of the OK2 update. It also has the sd card fix patch applied.
This ROM requires installing a custom recovery on your device, which will trip Knox.
All operations are done at your own risk
I would advise against flashing the EFS partition unless you know yours is corrupted (i don't think many people have that issue). The Boot, System, and Modem partitions all need to be flashed though.
If installing over Kitkat, a factory reset will most likely be required as lollipop installs apps differently. Also be prepared to lose all files on internal memory.
I would recommend backing up your OS before flashing. Also it wouldn't hurt to backup app data to make reinstalling apps easier.
Here's the thread for twrp:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-3-sprint/general/how-to-root-note-3-lollipop-t3089382
To install the ROM, extract the 7zip file to "/ExtSdCard/twrp/backups/{serial number}/"
using your favorite software (I made the file with ES File Explorer on Android).
Enter recovery mode (Volume up + Home button while poering on), and select "Restore" from the list of options.
There is a option to select internal or external storage to Restore from.
Select the OK2 stock rooted backup file. (Un)Check the appropriate boxes.
Restore the image to install the new OS
Here's the ROM
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B2iEgzRTFjrQdzNBa29DMTBsZHc/view?usp=docslist_api
I don't suppose you have another link? It fails to download every time I try.*Edit* I didn't have drive installed just flashed cm nightly forgot to install it :silly: thanks. And keep up the good work!
Not right now. I know youl'll receive two or three different errors, but you gotta click "continue" or "download" or "download anyway" to get the file. If it continues to be a problem, I can setup a torrent server for it when i get home tonight.
It might also help to download to a pc, or on a Wi-Fi connection. I've had issues with downloads failing to complete using my phone with big files.
Is there a way to change the launcher to 5x4

I do not know if there's a way to do so with to do so with TouchWiz, since I haven't used it since before the Kitkat update.
I've been using Go Launcher EX for awhile now instead, and it supports that feature.

Is hotspot works with this backup ?

I do not know. I use a third-party app for my hotspot. If you have hotspot services with your provider, the native one should work, but I have not tested that theory.
If you're not signed up for hotspot services, check here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2796994
or the "Wi-Fi Tether Router" app on the play store works very well for me (since this is a rooted ROM):
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.snclab.wifitetherrouter&hl=en
Just have to remember with that app to turn the device's Wi-Fi on before activating the hotspot.
Is anyone else having wifi calling issues with this rom? At first I got the error 16 switch message when trying calls of any kind off wifi, but wifi calling worked. Then I called sprint and they worked their magic to correct the error 16 message but I've had wifi calling issues ever since. Calls start and immediately drop on wifi calling.

I personally never had that problem. But I did notice if I tried to download a big file, or other devices on the network were using a LOT of data, the Wi-Fi calling would disconnect. Sometimes using the Bluetooth could cause problems since it uses the same antenna as the Wi-Fi... But I only had issues with that when transferring data with one or the other.
Yep, I know it can be picky, I have used it for years. This is the first time is disconnects immediately on every wifi call. Nothing has changed on my network. Comcast 75mbps, wireless AC router. It started with this rom, which by the way I love otherwise.
For sprint note3?

If you have successfully unzipped the file while the device is in normal operation. Then after you have booted into recovery mode (twrp) you should be able to locate the unzipped file with twrp. If it doesn't flash (Install) then something else is wrong. Is your phone already rooted ? If so what OS are you running now ? If not, You may want to root with supersu first. Do you have an SD Card installed in your device? If so, using a root file manager app like Root Explorer copy and paste the unzipped OK2 OS file to the Sd Card and boot back into twrp recovery and locate the unzipped file and flash from the SD Card.

This requires a custom recovery. I used TWRP to make the backup, and used ES File Explorer to zip it. If you don't have a custom recovery, you need a computer to install one. There is a completely stock ROM available if you don't want to trip Knox and keep your device completely stock, but that does require a computer.
Ok i ill try it again when im in better service i thought i had to put it in my backup folder

It took mine a good ten to fifteen minutes at least to go through all that.
Did you remember to clear your Dalvik and cache?
Moved to Android Development since that's where this technically belongs.

How does it belong in development when there is no development, nor has there been, any development going on in this thread? People needing help and asking basic questions doesn't count as development.
Restore or install?!?!
I have seen people say to "restore", "install", and/or "flash" this file. These are all options in TWRP. Which is it?
