Hi guys,
I have a problem with the Ad-hoc internet sharing from my laptop to my Galaxy S3. It seems to be a problem with the S3 (rooted, but still on stock firmware) since the Ad-hoc method worked just fine with my old Galaxy S on CM9.
What's even funnier is that the S3 doesn't even detect the Ad-hoc Wifi Network... Any thoughts?
Thanks in advance
Try to add the Network manually and input the SSID (Network Name) and Security type and password.
Some android device may have a trouble when adhoc from notebook. The default ROM usually have this kind of problem.
How to Fix wifi Adhoc Problem;
1 Download wpa_suppliacant (delete .txt extansion)
2 Open ES Explorer / Root Explorer
3 Go to /system/bin/
4 Rename wpa_supplicant to wpa_supplicant_backup (just for backup)
5 Copy the wpa_supplicant file that you got from download to /system/bin/

A lot of people have come up with the same idea, none successful to date.
Use the free program 'Connectify' on your computer, the networks it creates are "real" infrastructure AP and as such can be used by the S3.
Android doesn't support this out of the box, u need to apply patches to enable it to work...

could you please tell me if it worked for youe galaxy s3?
It does not work on my Galaxy S III.
For windows 7 laptops, perhaps just install connectify to save the hassles.

First of all thanks to all which are posting specially to Sauron!
If you want to make your Drone working with Archos, here is what I did:
Get root access:
1) Install SDE
2) Get the initramfs from this post (download the kernel+init.zip and extract it): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=9948644&postcount=1
3) Replace the zImage with the new overclocked kernel
4) Boot into SDE recovery menu and copy the initramfs.cpio.gz and zImage through USB cable
5) Boot into SDE developer OS
6) You should get all your apps here and have superuser right now
Suddenly no wpa_supplicant was not working on mine, so you have to change configuration file wpa_supplicant.conf to get Adhoc:
1) get Rootexplorer
2) open root explorer and find /data/misc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf
Here is mine (second network is my normal router):
update_config=0
ctrl_interface=tiwlan0
ap_scan=2
network={
ssid="ardrone_108549"
key_mgmt=NONE
priority=1
mode=1
}
network={
ssid="BytecekG"
psk="PASSWORD"
key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
priority=1
}
4) overwrite wpa_supplicant.conf in Archos with new content
5) change rights to wpa_supplicant.conf to RW-RW-RW-
6) delete file tiwlan.ini
7) start drone and then wifi on Archos
When you restart you should repeat step 5 and step 6 and step 7.
GOOD LUCK, IT WAS HORROR TO GET THIS WORKING
Two programs for Ar drone:
http://www.rafoid.com/2010/12/ardroid-2/?lang=en - nice but I have problems with connection link
http://www.meavydev.co.uk/ARDrone.html not nice but more working
Thank you very much for sharing. But this method still not work with Ad-Hoc from MyWi app on iPhone.
It works...kind of. I get connected and occasionally will download. but I have to keep refreshing till it finally works. I would say it was my phone -- Mortorola Droid 1 -- but my daughter Ipod touch word seamlessly.
Its working only for a few seconds for me
I am able to connect to adhoc wifi network ('wireless tether for root' application on my android phone), but i am able to surf only for a few seconds. After that, connection is dying I dont know why. I think its related with the absence of tiwlan file.

same to u, now i can connect for a few second using barnacle in x10. thanks
When i am using my backflip (custom rom - netfiler enabled) and 'barnacle' or 'wireless tether for root' the connection is dying after a few seconds. But when i am using wmwifirouter with my HTC TILT 2 (Touch Pro 2) - WM 6.5, i dont have any problems at all. The connection is working really good.
Strange ...
For step 5 and 6, I think we can edit init.rc script to do it automaticaly ?
I don't see why MyWi is so popular since TetherMe has been released. Best $2 I ever spent and works fantastically with my A101 via Bluetooth tether (unfortunately Archos doesn't have the drivers for the USB). Setup couldn't be simpler.

What channel did you set your mywi to? I tried your method but it didnt' work.
barely works
I've done this a couple if times and it is very tedious and the connection sucks. Its not wroth it IMO and luckily I made copies of my files before I edited or deleted them BC my normal wireless wouldn't work unless I went through the last steps again. In settings - wireless would just say "error". Don't try this IMHO!

So multiple people can use my internet, and the bluetooth tethering is sketchy, connects/disconnects randomly, especially when device goes to sleep.

For me, I have a Samsung Fascinate. When I use wireless tether bluetooh, i get an error my phone saying it is in an unknown state reboot, i reboot and get the same error....everytime....so bluetooth tether is not an option for everyone....
Haven't tried this yet, just rooted with archangle, have to study this option...

Bluetooth. Tetheing with my iphone 3gs is quite stable even when iphone display is off. I think bluetooth tethering also consumes less power.

YES !
Thanks to you and by using these instructions, I was finally able to tether my Archos 101 with my Sony X10a Android phone running on version 2.1. I tried everything I could to try tethering these 2 either with Bluetooth or via Wifi. This modification to the wpa_supplicant file and deleting the tiwlan.ini file has made adhoc tethering working with Barnacle on the X10. I can't thank you enough !
i've just found an option for ad-hoc mode in tiwlan.ini, which by default is disabled:
WiFiAdhoc = 0
anyone tried to set it to 1 and this way the step 6 could be skipped
moreover that after restart it always restores deleted tiwlan.ini, and you should delete again
DISCLAIMER: I AM NOT THE ORIGINAL "FOUNDER" OF THIS METHOD AND ALL CREDITS GO TO THIS ENTIRE COMMUNITY FOR HELPING ME OUT!
Many people including myself has found their phones having issues with gaining full network access to whatever router they try to connect to after the latest 2.3.3 update. After some fierce searching on XDA Forums and Facebook I found a very noobish/easy yet helpful workaround. To be able to connect to your home router you will need to use the good old fashioned Static IP sollution.
For you who are new to this here are the following steps of the entire procedure:
STEP 1:
On your phone, go to the "Wi-Fi settings" section and choose advanced options which will allow you to check the "use static IP box"
STEP 2:
Under the checked box there are now several boxes available where we will put some numbers (boxes are: IP adress, Gateway, Subnet mask, DNS1 and DNS2)
To find this info you will need to open CMD on your PC (search CMD and it will pop up) and type in the following: ipconfig /all
STEP 3:
By now you will have a long list of different information, however there is a section named "Ethernet Adapter Local Area Connection" under which all the information we actually need is located. To make matters easier I have included a partial screen shot pointing out the info needed:

"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Type the information you see into the appropriate sections in the phone except for the IP adress wich you will need to change the last digit of in order to prevent an IP conflict between the PC and the phone. (the last digit should not be used by any other device on the network so any unused number should work)
IMPORTANT
With static IP enabled you will only be able to connect to your home network and not to any network outside your home, but then again any connection is better than no connection at all. Just remember that this is a temporary solution until SE fixes the problem.
DNS1 and DNS2 are the same?
I tried this yesterday, yes phone will connect to wifi, but will not download anything. update now working Did like you said changed IP last number
Hey guys,
my wifi is giving me some trouble... i cant find my router with the phone. Already tried blade wifi fix and some other stuff but it just cant find it. Other devices can find it and connect without a problem.
The x10 just cant find it. Anyone encountered this problem and managed to find a work around?
I dont think the "static ip" will work in my case, cause i cant even find the router to connect to.
I'm on WB latest rom, with Speed&Fix005 installed.
Cheers

No, the DNS 1 and 2 are not the same. The last two digits are different if you look at the numbers according to the instructions
What do I do if I use 2 different wifi spots. One for home and one for work.
This will only make it work at home.
Cant believe that Sony Ericsson released a firmware where the wifi dont work
Any news about Sony want to fix the problem ?
If you want to use the phone in several Wi-Fi networks you will have to enter the information of that specific network just as the instructions shows. Sadly, for us suffering from this problem Sony Ericsson still havent responded to this issue that also exist in the ARC. It is also a fact that ARC users have been complaining for months without proper response.
Is there any other rom that fix the problem ?
I would like to use the original firmware. But if a custom firmware dont have the problem I would happily use that.

Another quick work round which maintains flexibility I find is to download and install an app called 'wifi static'.
No matter what I do, I still cannot connect to Kies with the GT10.1 3G version. Any idea? Thanks in advance.

Try to connect wirelessly. Works for me.
Both Systems on Same WiFi?
Are the two systems you want to use on the same WiFi network? If you want your PC to access your Tab, then your PC needs to be hooked up to your router, and your Tab needs to have it's WiFi function on and setup to connect to that same router.
From my understanding of the directions, Kies does not operate through the air using the cell network (ie: 3g, 4g, etc).
Sorry I'm talking about Kies via USB.

Same here..I also have the 3G version..i need to do a factory data reset to connect to kies...then after restoring from Titanium back up all my apps..it happens again,cant connect to kies..so now I'm just gonna wait before there are any firmware updates before i go through the tedious again
Kies version 2.1.1.11124_17 and it just won't allow my galaxy tab 10.1 to connect.
It stays forever on "connecting".
I have installed it on two computers. My phone Galaxy S2 can connect fine.
Googling for a solution: I haven't found any.
Please HELP!!
I have the 10.1 4G (GT-7500D). I have managed to get it to work - kinda.
That is to say, I have installed it on 3 PCs in the home (Windows 7 Professional, and Windows 7 Home Premium - all 64bit) and it worked VIA USB... ONCE on each computer. After the initial install I can connect exactly once. The only way to get it to reconnect is to reset the tablet back to factory defaults. Hardly a solution. Interestingly enough, it works VIA wireless Kies with no issue, however, you cannot update system this way. Going the USB route the software must be storing or changing a setting on the tablet that unfortunately prevents it from reconnecting a second time VIA USB (hence the reason a factory reset will allow it to connect again - once).
Has anyone tried changing the usb debugging mode in settings> applications> development instead of the resetting to stock? Not saying it'll work but wortha try if not tried yet.

if you cant upgrade from the tablet...download the latest odin file from here and flash it using odin in the PDA slot.

same problem here too
I am able to connect my P7510 to USB, just Kies will not recognise my tab. Does recognise it over Kies-Wifi though. But firmware updates are not supported over Kies-Wifi... Not Good...
Got Latest Kies, enable/disable USB debugging, reset Tablet did not help. Stuck in a rut. But as HC3.2 no longer supports USB Kies mode (and my tablet started out with HC3.2, being as new as it is) I am for now stuck with waiting for OTA updates, few and far apart as they are...
Ah well, could have been my other tablet (Archos Gen8 43), which has even less options (Froyo).
Kies?...Nothing to do here.

Why are you connecting it?
If its for tethering(sharing 3g) use wifi hotspots, and if its for file transfer use a free program called My Phone Explorer, that will allow you to pair properly.
I eant to use it for file transfer. I usef to connevt easily with my all earlier phones. It start the hardware scan and then nothing.

Hi everyone.
I'm trying to send files over to my old S2 which is running the Samsung stock ICS rom. But S3 is unable to send anything over even though they are both connected. When I tap on the status information, I see the following status:

Any advice on why is this so? Is S3 Wifi Direct incompatible with S2?
Please help! Thanks!
U need to enable the WifiDirect Settings on the S2. If not you will not be able to send file from Note or S3 over to S2(Gingebread).
Yes, I have already enabled the WifiDirect on S2. It is just a toggle to turn it on, am I right? Both the phones are able to get connected, but I just can't send files over to S2?
Just to add. I'm unable to see any WifiDirect setting option on my phone.
I'm have no idea how can I configure it.
I've just tried it between my S2 and S3, works fine. Switched wifi direct on both phones, they found each other immediately, accepted the connection from one to the other, used a file explorer to select a random file, long pressed on it, picked "send" then "wifi direct" in the list of options and done. Files on the S3 appear in a "share via wifi" folder on the internal sd.
Edit: also works fine from S3 to S2 but there's an extra step as in once I've selected "share" and "wifi direct" it pops a list of connected devices (just the one in my case) and I need to select the tick box for that device and click "done"

Thanks for the test. Then it may be something wrong with my S3? Because it keep trying to send out the file to S2, but there is nothing being received on my S2, after I done the same step of checking the checkbox from the list of devices. Tested with 2 different S2, and it is still the same.

Just a thought... My S3 is running the unbranded UK XXBLFB rom (rooted with cf- root) so if yours is on a custom or carrier rom then maybe there's a problem in that firmware? S2 is on an ICS rom

I'm running the same rom too. My S2 is running the XWLPD ICS. I find sending from S2 -> S3 is an instant. However, sending S3 -> S2, the syncing and transferring of files is not as quick as S2 -> S3. I bet the issue lies in my S3. I need to retry couples of times in order to get successful transfer. But once a transfer is made, all other subsequent transfers will be like a breeze.
