Hi.
Searched everywhere, couldn't find anything.
Maybe you Gurus here could help out.
How could I use the wi-fi direct functions on an aokp milestone1 rom?
Neither stream music, and movies to my TV, nor sending files via wi-fi direct. doesn't work for me.
...There's an wi-fi direct option in WLAN Settings. But doesn't show anything.
Thx for your help.
regards

I had exactly the same problem with my galaxy s2 i9100, and asked it here, but got no answer!

Too bad.
If someone tell's us 'it's not working' would be good, so we can stop searching.

Hey guys I found this link and thought it may at least give you some closure(or hope) on the wifi direct issue:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1889145 (scroll down to Idan73's post)
I've been searching for a couple days myself but I guess it's just disabled currently in CM10 and AOKP roms. Wifi direct is an overlooked feature but I find it to be very useful; much better than bluetooth(like 1000x better). Hopefully it should be implemented soon after devs figure out how, though I won't hold my breath. I'm using JellyBam rom atm and it's the only thing missing in my opinion
Edit:
If you want a similar functioning app that is just as good as wifi direct(acts almost the exact same way), you could try this :https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.floriandraschbacher.fastfiletransfer&hl=en
The app uses WiFi Tethering to establish a connection between two devices without internet, so effectively it acts just like WiFi direct and is probably the best alternative we'll get. Works on older phones too such as the galaxy S and the receiving phone doesn't need the app installed to receive the file, which is a plus and makes it better than wifi direct in that regard. Gave it a 5 star rating on the play store in the hopes that app development is continued and the app is not abandoned. Just found out about it otherwise I would have linked it earlier (google searches save lives lol). Hope it's helpful to you guys.
Thanks for your words.
Tried out a lot of things.
But now I'm back on my own cooked deodexed stock rom
Wifi direct work fine on AOKP, but only with this app here. For me, work fine on Galaxy s1 + Galaxy s2, both running Rom ICS AOKP M6.
Or, you can use this excellent app here, which is as wifi direct but without wifi direct.

Hello Team, I have a number of questions regarding the recent ICS Passion v12.
1. I tried Open Garden and it doesn't work, any one know of a fix?
2. I have read all the GPS issues and fixes but nothing seems to work, any suggestions, I read somewhere that perhaps a new kernel but not sure. any help is appreciated.
Thanks

If I can only get help with getting Open Garden to work or perhaps reconfigure the adhoc or wifi settings, I will be so glad. I am sort of kind of used to the gps issue and working from all the posts and things I can search for but the Open garden is critical cause I have a galaxy tab 10.1 and rely heavily on the ability to tether my phone to the tablet. It did work on CM 7 but this ROM Is NICE and I would just love to have this work on ICS Passion, please help , much appreciated

ICS Passion has a built-in mobile hotspot feature. You can access it at System Settings > Wireless & Networks (More...) > Tethering & portable hotspot

Is that feature free?
If you are looking for a 3rd party wifi tethering solution that requires root access to run, you can give Barnacle a try Here

I have barnacle and Open Garden and Wifi tether. I was able to only get wifi tether working versus the other two because the other two operate in adhoc mode and they (the other two) do not have the ability for an end user to change the phone profile. Even though I am using a Vibrant, I had to change the profile in "Wifi tether" to Samsung Nexus and the problems went away
Thanks for you input

Hi,
Can anyone explain what is the function of WIFI direct in the AOKP ROM? This function is found in the settings menu, more... (just below the wifi/BT enable button).
Thanks,
Allisson
Actually it is in stock rom as well (well, a hardware feature that is). It allows the tab to communicate with other wifi direct capable devices for file exchange, media streaming, etc.

Hi,
Probably this question was already asked, but I did a lot of searching and could not find a concrete answer.
When I had ICS ROM on my S2, Wi-Fi Direct was working fine and I was able to share files with other S2 phones running stock ICS. But after I flashed JB ROMs (first Jelly King AOKP and now Jelly Bam AOKP) the Wi-Fi Direct is disabled. I know it is present in options menu after I turn on WiFi. There seems to be a blank row which when clicked does nothing. (attached screenshot). Also the options Search for devices and Rename device are disabled and greyed out.
Is this a known issue in JB and there is no fix? Or are there any JB ROMS in which Wi-Fi Direct works.
Are there any workarounds? Please help!
Thanks!
I have noticed this too

This is an issue with Galaxy S i9000. With CM9 / other ICS ROMs , there is a seperate WiFi Direct section which works, but in CM10 / other JB ROMs, the WiFi Direct screen is the same as in your Galaxy S 2

You use AOSP/AOKP which I believe don't support the natively built in WiFi direct function. However, you can use apps for this: airdroid and WiFi explorer are just two great apps.

Thanks so much! Fast File Transfer is doing the job just like Wi-Fi Direct. :good:
I have been watching and looking for a fix to the problem seening and joining an Ad-Hoc WiFi network using the Galaxy S3. Does anyone have any news about this. I do not see any new information?
I know there are some tethering work arounds but so far I have not found a fix.
The use case I am looking for will allow me to connect to the Brookstone Rover. This can be readily done with an iPhone as the rover sets up an Ad-Hoc WiFi network. This is totally invisible to the S3.
Thanks in advance for any leads
search on the Play store
Haven't found an app either

So far nothing on the Play Store works on my S3. One notably required me to reflash to recover.
Hi there
Okay i have a galaxy note 10.1. Im fairly new to it. I am having problems browsing the web with it. I can connect to my home wifi but i cannot browse the web.
I have looked everywhere for help and i still cant seem to solve the problem. I can browse the internet at a friend's house but just not my home router.
I have checked all the settings, restarted my note and my router and i dont know what else to do.
Please give some suggestions
You are in the wrong forum. Try here.
You will also need to provide MUCH more information. Are you running a custom ROM on your device? Or is it stock? Is there anything else you have done to it? Did it ever work at home?
I can tell you straight away that if you post the same type of question in the correct forum, you will likely be ignored. My advice would be to provide as much information about your tablet and what you've done to it recently as possible. Good luck!
