Perhaps every one knows about the functions of wifi direct and how useful it is, on galaxy s2 it is very simple to connect the device to others with the same capability of wifi direct as you can find it in settings menu,
how about galaxy tab 10.1? although I could not find anything in the menu but still have the question if it is possible to use the device on wifi direct??
on some websites I saw wi-fi direct as a spec of galaxy tab 10.1, but could not find a clue on how to use it
I tried the Wifi Direct with my SGS2 and GT10 but it didnt work
On some website i read that Samsungs Implementation of WI-FI Direct is not like it should be because you can only connect with devices that have this feature.
According to the Specifications from the Wi-Fi Alliance only one device needs to have the Wifi Direct feature. EDIT: And this may be the reason why the GT10 doesnt have it

on the official galaxy tab specs site it says (wifi direct ) http://www.samsung.com/global/microsite/galaxytab/10.1/spec.html
where the F is this feature in our tab
Missing WiFi direct on Gtab 10.1
I was just noticing that, too. I have the Galaxy Tab 7.0 Plus with Android v3.2 on it, and there's an extra option in the "Wireless and networks" settings area for "WiFi Direct settings" but on the Galaxy Tab 10.1 with Android v3.2 that option is not present. I'm betting the functionality is present but it's just missing the required setup function. I noticed, also, that WiFi Direct is listed on the 10.1's specs. Unfortunately, no firmware-update love appears to be forthcoming from Samsung for the original Tab 10.1.
Look,
There is the Galaxy Tab 7.0, which I Would think, doesn´t have this options,
but now you have the galaxy tab 7.0 plus, with more features than the earlier model,....
So If there would be a galaxy tab 10.1 plus, the feature is guaranteed there included...., or a firmware update/upgrade comes..... and incude it....
greets
Since the new GS3 advertises their new S-Beam feature which uses WiFi Direct heavily, perhaps it would be to their benefit to make sure as many Samsung products have Wifi Direct enabled.
I wonder if NFC must be present in order for that to work entirely or not.
I have succeeded in getting a Wi-Fi Direct connection between two HC 3.2 10.1's (both P7510). Much good as that may be. I was not running any specialised software but could connect cleanly.
Disadvantage: after disconnect from Direct Wi-Fi the machine kept on scanning for Wi-Fi connections, even though the 'normal' Wi-Fi was switched off. A reboot fixed this.
A friend offered me a Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 (no carrier). Two days later the tablet began rebooting uncontrolably. I took it home, did a factory reset, and the tablet did continue to reboot only when I try to connect to my WIFI (constantly "getting ip address"), which was working perfectly fine and was also the same WIFI that I had been connected to the first 2 days.
With my PC and my iPhone my wifi works perfectly.
You'll find a video at Youtube showing the issue I am reporting if you find for: Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 Reboot WIFI Issue.
(I don't post the link because I am not allowed to)
Does anyone know what's going on or is having the same issue???
Thank you in advance!

Hello.
So let's get straight to the point. I have a Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 tablet with 4.1.2 installed. Since the new update, my tablet won't connect to schools network, which had EAP method TTLS and phase 2 authentication PAP. It doesn't need a User certificate, but we have a CA certificate.
Previously it worked flawlessly on 4.0.4 and on 4.1.2 for about a month, but then suddenly a weird error appeared. It says, "the password is incorrect". I tried modifying the network numerous of times, forgetting it and resetting the tablet, but none of it helped. I'm using the Wi-fi hotspot from my telephone to connect to the internet in school. I can assure, that there are no problems with the school network since all of my friends can connect to it (applies for every operating system) and the speed also isn't the problem, it's a 100/100. I look forward to every answer.
Best regards.
Ok, I found out, that I posted this in the wrong section, but I forgot, on how to delete the topic. Sorry, my bad.

Just to let you know this is the galaxy tab 10.1 section. Might have more luck in the correct one
I passed by Galaxy S6 Edge to Galaxy S6 Edge+ and I do not work more calls and notifications remotely with Gear S .
Before when I walk away from the range of the bluetooth with the Galaxy S6 Edge could perfectly to have call forwarding and notifications, now with Galaxy S6 Edge+ I get the message that you can not make the call diversion etc etc. connect to Bluetooth.
You have done the same experience?
You know the reasons and solutions?
Thanks for the reply
( * Please forgive Google Translate for the bad translation)
Same with me. Moved from the note 4 to S6 Edge+ and once disconnected from blue tooth it fails to connect remotely...
I was having this issue at first but I got it to work, and now it's fine everytime.
Make sure the watch is on, and connected via Bluetooth. Then in the Gear S app, select "remote connect" so that it turns the option on. Then go to "auto call forwarding" and turn that on.
Then walk away until the Bluetooth disconnects. It will appear that remote connection is not working. Then walk back to your phone until Bluetooth reconnects. Then turn off remote connect (without turning off auto-call forward). Then turn remote connect back on. Then go to auto call forward and turn it on again. Viola, works.

I'm sorry but no, your method does not work!
I tried several times to do what you advice, but the remote connection is not activated from my Gear S and my S6 Edge +

Worked for me. Bummer, sorry!
Still works perfect. Gear S + Galaxy Edge+ (T-Mobile)
Perfect! "Magically" now it works perfectly diverting calls and notifications remotely.
Try it yourself, probably there has been some change in the server Samsung with admission at the service of the Galaxy S6 Edge +
Can people confirm that it is working now?

Hello!
I'm a 70-year old grandmother who has never posted here before so please be patient. I am posting because a couple of old posts I read here helped me solve this frustrating and aggravating problem. I figured maybe my additional info might help someone else who may stumble onto this site trying to solve this Tmobile wireless hotspot problem on their own unlocked ATT phones.
Since I'm new they won't let me post actual links so search around online if you need to You'll find them.
TL;DR - You're right. All I can suggest is that you Just read through things or skim until you get to the part/s that help you.
==================
:: THE PROBLEM ::
==================
I could not FOR THE LIFE OF ME get my Tmobile hotspot to work on my unlocked Att phone (Samsung Mega 6.3 SGH - i527 4.4.2). I WAS able to successfully tether using FoxFi/PdaNet but NOT connect as a wireless mobile hotspot. Whenever I would try to connect as a hotspot the following error appeared: "Mobile Data is not available or Invalid SIM"
[Here is more detailed info on FoxFi/Pdanet for those, like me, who know nothing.]: FoxFi/PdaNet allows mobile hotspot, tethering (using a USB cable), and bluetooth. FoxFi (dot) com . There is a charge ($10?) to get the unlock key for full features. It was worth every penny because running my laptop through my phone by tether - and NOW wifi hotspot - saves me about $50/month in broadband internet charges!! Tra-la!! (Fixed income, you know.)
*Note, there are two parts FoxFi/Pdanet. One application goes on your phone, the other goes on your laptop/desktop so they can communicate while tethering. There is a new application just for tablets in the App Store. I don’t know if there is one for iphone.
Download links:
For Android (plus Mac or Windows) download here pdanet (dot) co
For iPhone (plus Windows) download here: junefabrics (dot) com
There is a new FoxFi/PdaNet application just for tablets in the App Store. I don’t know if there is one for iphone \ tablets.
=============================================
* * *SOLUTION THAT SOLVED THE PROBLEM FOR ME * * * ( after 4 months of trying everything!):
==============================================
STEP 1: I ROOTED MY PHONE
Actually, I did this awhile ago and I don't remember how I did it but I'm pretty sure it involved the "Kingroot" application. Google around for rooting instruction for your particular phone
STEP 2: QUESTIONABLE STEP but who knows
( I don't really think you need to do this but I did and I figure I'll give you all the info that was involved. I uninstalled this AFTER I fixed this issue and there's been no problem but you never know if somehow it was necessary.
Thinking it, alone might do the trick, I installed __ EntitlementByPass-v1.2.apk ___"for the Motorola Moto X, by KrYpToNiTe"

(Actually, I got so crazy that I installed this on top of itself several times and clicked to bypass each time. God knows what doing those installs like that did. Maybe nothing. Maybe it almost bricked (ruined) my phone. What I do know is that when I took Step 2 (below) the bypass was OFF. Again, later I uninstalled this and had no problems without being on the phone.)
STEP 3: I watched and EXACTLY followed the instructions on the following YouTube video (Detailed info below was in the description. Included it here in case the video ever disappears. My added comments are in brackets.
"HOW TO GET FREE NATIVE WIFI HOTSPOT ON THE SAMSUNG GALAXY S4 AT&T"
youtube (dot) com (forward slash) watch?v=SHKkEKjUnqM
Published on Jul 12, 2013
This is a tutorial video on how to get free hotspot on the Samsung Galaxy S4 AT&T. MUST BE ROOTED IN ORDER TO GET FREE HOTSPOT. This only works on the SGH - i337 and AT&T. Enjoy your free Hotspot!
[Clearly, it works on more than just the SGH - i337]
Instructions
1. ROOT Your Galaxy S4 - youtu (dot) be (forward slash) KBZ6ydFHLX4
2. DOWNLOAD free "TetheringProvision.apk" (application) [directly to your phone from the Play Store]
3. DOWNLOAD free "Root Browse" (application) [directly to your phone from the Play Store]
4. OPEN the "Root Browser" application and navigate to /system/app [Go inside the "system" folder, find and open the "app" folder that will be in there.]
5.
a. LOCATE these two files in that "app" folder:
TetheringProvision.apk
and
TetheringProvision.odex
b. RENAME each of the two files [by pressing and holding the file itself, then selecting edit or change name, I don’t know which.]
c. CHANGE the name "TetheringProvision.apk" to "TetheringProvision.bak"
d. CHANGE the name "TetheringProvision.odex" to "TetheringProvision.bak1"
(*Make sure you grant Superuser Request!) [This is relevant only after you root your phone, in which case it will make sense if you have installed the SuperUser app on your phone.]
6. USE the "Root Browser" app to find your downloads folder: [Go inside the "sdcard" folder, find and open the "Download" folder]
(/sdcard/Download). This will be where you downloaded the TetheringProvision.apk.]
7. COPY the “TetheringProvision.apk”:
[This is like copying and pasting text but here we're copying and pasting an entire application. How it works I don't know but it does.
a. PRESS down on it and select “copy”.
b. GO BACK to the "system" folder, find and open the "app" folder
c. Paste it in by clicking the large button near the bottom of your screen that says “Paste”. If you don’t see that button, start this step over.]
8. Reboot your Galaxy S4 [or whatever phone you have] and turn on native Mobile Hotspot via Settings. ATT will still give you a warning message, but mobile hotspot/tethering will now work!
* * * [Special Note #1] I turned it on using FoxFi because I wanted to try hide my usage. Did it work? I don't know. I have unlimited Data with Tmobile and I'm way over the 5 GB hotspot allowance for unlimited users. If it becomes a problem I will download the "Wifi Tether" app and give that a try. So far so good. Actually, I think turning the Wifi on through FoxFi automatically turns on the native ATT hotspot toggle in the settings.
* * * [Special Note #2] When I tried to turn it on at first I ran into trouble. I got "setting have stopped" messages for quite awhile but that was a NEW error message so I knew SOMETHING had changed. I REFUSED to give up. I just kept goofing around turning it on and waiting and getting the error message and restarting my phone and turing it on and on and on and getting the message and restarting my phone, etc. THEN, all of a SUDDEN, that sucker worked!!! I knew it because two little wireless icons (one Foxfi, blue; and PdAnet, black) rolled up on my top notifications bar. They rolled up, they rolled down, they rolled up, again, and THEN THEY STAYED THERE!! I could NOT believe my eyes!! I let it run for awhile too afraid to turn it off in case it would never come back. But it did. It went on and off just fine so, eventually, I uninstalled the EntitlementBypass app without if affecting anything. This being said, SOMETIMES, I still get the "setting have stopped" error message, in which case I just restart my phone, toggle it on and do that until it comes back on to stay.
* * * [Special Note #3] If you get this to work, I don't know if it still will if you update your system, security, anything, so I NEVER WILL. I'd rather have a working hotspot than ANY of that.
