Hiding tethering from Three (UK)? - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have an unlocked and unbranded Samsung Galaxy S5 with the latest XtreStoLite ROM (based on Android 4.4.2).
No matter which ROM I use (included the latest stock Samsung ROM), I can enable tethering and my Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 is fine will connect to the phone just fine and the Web works.
However, if any other device tries to connect to my S5 (in the latest case, my Windows 8.1 tablet), they can't connect to any pages, and it disables data on the S5 until I turn Flight Mode on and back off (to restart the connection).
Any ideas?

how to connect to my wifi on rooted ssgsII

I have wireless tether on my galaxy s 2 but my tab 10.1 can't even see it when it scans for wireless networks. I've tried rebooting the device and even tried to add it manually but to no avail.

You need a custom ROM because ad-hoc isn't built into the stock ROM. I'm 99% galaxy task can do ad-hoc.
start here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1171089
use ODIN to get Clockwork Recovery on your tab
Then don't worry about the "rooting" step, just flash it (from within the CWM recovery) with the newest galaxy task (USE THE FULL ROM, NOT THE UPDATE).
You should not need to root that device....
go to settings, wireless networks, tethering and portable hotspot, turn on Mobile AP. Set a SSID and password for kicks and giggles.
This was on my Vibrant and SGS4G, would assume it is on your phone too.
Yeah I am on galaxy task and can detect my x10 mini as a hotspot with barnacle. Just do what the guys above say, it should work fine
Delete.....

[Q] I can't get Kies to connect to my Tab 10.1

I am completely unable to get Kies to see my 10.1 tab on my PC win 7. I always end up with an error message (Cannot start service on the devise. Please disconnect and reconnect the devise).
I tried the trouble shooting connection option, still the same no connection. Anybody have any tips on making that connection?
I always had problems with Task 14
I think mine stopped working via USB with the last update, although it worked over WiFi. Have you tried both?

WiFi works fine, but I don't see option of updating the firmware on WiFi.
In the same boat, trying to get ICS update but won't connect via kies......
wifi works fine.
The only way kies connects for me is using my unrooted backup. Any custom rom won't connect for me. Have you tried that?
I have the same problem. Tried to connect to Kies before the ICS upgrade and just now after performing the ICS upgrade. Nothing works, tried turning on USB debugging, etc.

Does factory reset work? On my HC 3.2 Kies (and USB drivers) were very finicky. Re-installed KIES/Drivers many times and only a factory reset got it primed and working. Have only seen ID mismatches once in a while after Stock ICS, but when it works Kies also recognises the tab.
my galaxy y has same problem after rooting the galaxy y by NeoX BlackStar X1....:crying:
i need to get back my contacts.......:crying:
if you are rooted, then the Tab will not connect to Kies. The same way like some Samsung applications will not work if rooted. So, there are two options that you: root and live free or stay connected to Samsung like an apple lover.... Sorry, but I am terribly upset on Samsung...
If you are stock and cannot connect... try removing all the drivers from PC (check internet for how to remove hidden devices). And try to uninstall and reinstall Kies

My rooted tab connected just fine to Kies.
What I think you mean is that if you're not running a stock ROM, you can't connect to Kies. That's probably the case. Mine is stock but rooted.

Galaxy Note 2 N7105 Mobile Network Problem!

Hello,
Basically I have previously messed up my phone, so i decided to root my phone and put a custom rom onto it.
But I really missed my design for my Rom.
So I put Stock Rom back onto my Phone, (Unrooting it)
But after I did that, My phone is deciding not to connect to my EE Mobile Netowrk.
Wifi Works Fine.
So I have then tried to put a different Stock Rom onto it just to see if it was the stock rom.
But my phones not connecting to my PC.
have checked that i have Samsung Drivers.
I am using Stock USB.
I have changed through four different USB Ports.
It connects to my PC when it is turned on but not when its on Download Screen.
Any Suggestions?

[Q] Problem with connecting android to pc.

Hello everyone. I have a problem with connecting my Samsung galaxy S3 (android 4.3) to any of my PCs. Before everything worked fine but then I upgraded to android 4.3 and connections started crashing. It still worked but connections were unstable. So I installed Samsung Kies 3 and from then on I haven't been able to connect my device to any PC. I tried everything I found on web. I have developer mode and usb debugging on. I know my cable is OK because other devices work just fine. Someone suggested going to usb settings but apparently there is no such think in android 4.3 settings, so I downloaded some apps to change my usb settings but they all require a rooted phone. I tried rooting my phone but even for that I need to connect it to a PC. I really need to connect my phone to PC to test apps(android emulator lags waaay too much). Does anyone know how to fix this please? Any suggestion is appreciated. Thanks.
