Are you serious ? Do you really want to do p2p on your phone ? Cause first, it will cost a lot on your phone bill and other point, UMTS connection will drain a lot your phone's battery.

i dont see a problem. i would do it over wifi eliminating these charges. then all i have to do it charge my battery then bam both ur problems solved.

I've tried this one: http://www.adisasta.com/wmTorrent.html, and it works fine. It will drain your battery in no time though, so it's usefullness is a bit limited because of that.

I agree, but the battery dies fast anyway. lol
I love being able to download a torrent on the fly, and brag to the people at work that can't do that with their iphone.

i love this app its freakin great

that adisasta program sucks balls it only downloads torrents it would be better if you could search em n downlooad

hahaha i absolutely agree with mike on that one, any other ideas?

File Sharing
Try Pocket G2 Pro for p2p via gnutella..i have a cab that i will upload once i get to my pc.

lol
I have soulseek torrent and emule on my 16gb 3g. works all fine up to 180kb/s
battery goes ok (downloading on the road with car charger...) XD

I could never get pocket G2 to connect. Both with wifi or data connection.
I also tried wmtorrent on my mogul and it ran really rough. I did manage to download a 700 mb file but the phone felt like it was on fire while plugged in so I just stuck to logmein.com to my desktop and using winamp remote or ORB.

I prefer a slightly different solution.
I configure my torrent client to allow web management.
I can then add to the client from my phone, and my PC will download.
Connection there is also much much faster than over GPRS, and most wifi connections I will be on.
I also setup a secure FTP at home, and have all completed torrents moved into the FTP folder.
I can then access the completed torrents via FTP on my phone, and download them quickly.

Using the Raphael as an External Wireless Card

Does anyone know if this follow scenario is possible?
I want to connect the phone up to my computer via BT or the USB cord, and then the phone will connect via WiFi (802.11b/g) to a wireless router. Can this be done?
Thanks in advance.

Yes. It can be done with a program like wifi internet sharing. I have not used it myself, but NRG has it in his newest rom. You will want to link up with the usb cord because anytime I have wifi and BT going at the same time (internet wifi and BT headphones) there is a conflict. I have also heard that it isn't a great program, but you can find out for yourself. Hope that helps.

I have to say that it does work. Im using NRG latest Energy rom, july 29, and i can share the internet from my fone to the laptop through wifi and connect the laptop to the internet. basically the fone works like a router... or u can also connect and share internet through usb... it seems to work just a lil bit faster.

I'm not sure how else to explain this. I'm NOT looking to use the cell phone's data plan. I AM looking to use the phone as a usb wireless (802.11b/g) adapter for the computer.
Anything like this?
The Wifi internet sharing is attempting the use of the data plan (no good for my situation).

its wifi to usb mode is awesome. it will try to pick up a free hotspot first, but you can manually connect to a wpa/wep secured network and then launch it, works like a champ everytime.

u can always try to "obtain" a copy of wmwifirouter

This is just my opinion. It might be wrong!
If you've a computer that can connect to your cell phone with Bluetooth.
I'm quite sure that the computer must have Wifi function also.
Why you want to do some easiest thing to be much more complicated!

@navi_mapper:
Not always; I've seen some laptops with a Bluetooth only card, a WiFi only card, and Bluetooth/WiFi combo cards.
It likely the purchaser may not have chosen a combo option or the laptop came with Bluetooth only. Worst case, the laptop may have shipped with a legacy WiFi device and is too costly to replace.

Note that there are early versions of WMWifiRouter (up to V.91, IIRC) still available that were released without encumberance. While it might not be Chainfire's preference, it's not exactly discussing "warez" to use an older version. Granted - the person you're cautioning seems to be insinuating that you get a cracked version...
I recommend paying for it, though - the supported paid version is a lot more reliable (and you can actually uninstall it without borking your network setup). It also offers a very nice USB-to-Wifi interface. I think the free ICSControl offered elsewhere on this forum does the same (USB-to-Wifi), but in my brief experience with that program it was not as reliable as WMWR.

Tethering GTag through BB BT...

Talked my buddy into a Gtab after giving him a test drive on mine...
1 problem, his smart phone is through Sprint and he uses a Black Berry.
He connects his LT to the internet with a USB cable and his BB.
I thought I could set him up through Bluetooth, but I cant figure out how to tether the connection.
I can "pair" the 2 together no problem, but I dont have a clue how to make the internet connection.
He uses a Sprint program on his LT, so I'm wondering if there's a program that would do the same on the Gtab...
Any help would be greatly appreciated...
Thanks in advance...

I can get the 2 to "pair" without a problem, what I need is a terminal app to use the BB as a modem.

I dont have enough experience with the Android OS to set this up.
I'm not even sure how to tether the Gtab to an Android phone.
Really need some help on this one or told it's not an option.

As far as I know you can't do usb/bluetooth tethering atm . Unless someone manage to port over archos tethering protocol/tethering wizard.

I don't think it's an option direct from the GTab to the BB. I've been trying to get this to connect with my Storm 2, and have had no luck at all with it. Like you, I can pair the devices, but they won't connect. The only tethering software I can see that was worth a shot was Tether, and they don't support BB to Android.
Someone else in another thread pointed out a possible solution, a Cradlepoint CTR-350 Cellular Travel Router. You can connect your BB to create the access point, then connect the GTab to the 350. Runs about $77.00 from what I can tell online.

Does blackberry have any hotspot apps?
My wife uses a Nokia N97, and purchased the Joikuspot hotspot app. The G-tab can see the Nokia's hotspot once the ad-hoc wifi hack is installed.

Will do, but the more I look the more I like the CradlePoint PHS300 Personal Hotspot. Little more expensive, but might be worth it since it's battery powered.

Good point... I pulled the Cradlepoint 350 up on line and it was AC only...
I also like the suggestion about "HOT SPOT" app on the BB... Haven't checked that as of yet....
If we can get this through software, that would be so much better...
He uses a Sprint program on the laptop to connect so we know it has the
capabilities to work as a modem and he has internet access.
I'm wondering how the iPad folks use their phones to connect to the internet.
I know most have the WIFI only models and they tether through their phones.

He just ordered the 300.....
They are running a holiday special of $99 dollars and that includes a free second backup battery....
Regular price was over 200 with shipping.... Cost him 109 with shipping...
He figures he can use the hot spot for other users also. It supports up to 16 users at once.
His Sprint card was listed as a option so this is even a better solution.
Huge thanks for pointing us in the right direction.

Install pdanet and creat your hotspot. Once that is done go to your wireless setting and connect to the hotspot.

??? I have PDANet on my Black Berry and PDANet on my GTab. On the BB, I selected Enabled Bluetooth DUN. The same thing for the GTab. Doesn't do anything.
I suspect both are listening for something to connect to them. Not sure how this is supposed to work.

I'm using it with wifi via my iphone...

Ah, that must be the key. You can't do it via bluetooth. You have to have a wifi connection to your phone.
The original posting asked how to do this via bluetooth.

PDAnet via usb requires a client on the client computer. I contacted PDAnet if they would create an android client for tablets and their answer, atleast for now, is we are SOL. Use BT DUN. But like the OP I cannot get my G tab to connect, only pair with my droid x or Aria. I don't know what is supposed to happen after turning on the BT DUN in PDAnet. Should the G tablet then be able to connect? Does some other software need to be run on the gtab to allow DUN connection?

[Q] usb 3g stick - is it poissible

I'm using tnt lite 3.1.4, also had vegan, but none could do anything with my 3g sticks. Following different forums, I see most devices can (at least some specific sticks). Has anyone managed to set up a 3G conection? Is there a how to I could follow? What chipset the stick had?
Thanks,
T.

I tried a sprint usb aircard.. no go..

The only way I have been able to get a 3G connection is to wirelessly tether to my DroidX work phone...
1) Install Z4root on the droid and run it to root the phone
2) Install wifi tether on the droid and set up a wep key and ssid
3) Turn on the wifi tether
4) The table sees this wifi "router" or connection, I set the wep key on that connection, the two units negotiate an IP, and zap, it has 3G through the droid
Not sure if this is helpful, but that is what I had to do in my own situation.

if it's in the kernel, it should seriously work, but someone has to build it. there's absolutely no reason for this not to work if someone builds it -- it has conceptually worked in linux for years.

I can build the kernel but I believe we need to add some stuff in initrc for the usb to connect to serial (like ttyUSB). Once I get another Gtab, I'll look into this.

exactly man, thanks for stepping up! this will be ultimately useful on many different devices with usb host features, and shouldn't be ridiculously difficult to get going, and gain some real cred with the tablet community, especially now as we're the first with this new tegra2 platform, with over 20-30 new devices coming soon. i'm unsure of how many are wifi-only, but the ability to merely jack in with a 3g/4g usb modem would be ultimately useful to many, and will save a ton of money for folks.

Thanks for that. I also use teether from my NexusOne, but I have to give it up as I got to move to BlackBerry - so I need a different solution... (what a step backwards :-(
T.

The stick is probably seen in the kernel. The other parts, Networkmanager, dialier, ppp are not on the tab. They would have to be recompiled for the arm processor and I'm not sure what other work is needed.

Thanks Clemsyn. Using your latest kernel with Vegan B5.1. I bought a Novatel USB727 (Verizon) stick off ebay (built in Linux support) just to try this out. Would gladly test if needed.

I would also be happy to test with ATT and Verizon 3G USB modems...

Update:
Built a kernel with 3g USB support, used my friend's Verizon Mifi, plugged it in the Gtab and it turns on, Dmesg shows it is detected as Novatel wireless and shows it's serial info. That's about it, can't browse and use it. Any ideas?

I'll try my usb modem using the ubuntu load. It should have the other networking parts to dial and connect.

In the ubuntu load, networkmanager is not supported yet so usb modems are still on hold.

Yes please, we need this. I have a sprint card from work and would love to ditch the laptop when travelling. Clemsyn, I could send you a copy of sprint smart view 3g manager if you think it would help.

I am able to use 3G easily using MyWi app from Cydia on my iPhone. This Gtablet works great on 3G! And since I always have my phone on me, I always have a 3G network on my Gtablet! iPhones basically suck, but this is probably the only good thing I've been able to use it for! And man oh man, its working great! Btw, When my phone contract runs out, I'm going to change to the Evo! That would be sweet!

Same here. I've been using Wireless Tether on my rooted Droid X with an unlimited 3G data plan for several weeks and it is pretty sweet. And like you said, since I have my phone with me all the time anyway, this seemed like an obvious solution.
I would be interested in the progress of this usb effort since my carrier now offers 4G modems.

[Q] 3g modem on nook

Hello, I wonder if its possible to put in a 3g modem and use mobile broadband on the nook ?
Please excuse me for bad my bad English

Hardware modification is a lot of work. In most cases it's not even possible.
You are better off tethering to your phone or a hotspot if wifi isn't available...
In my opinion.

Where do you propose to insert the USB 3G device? Maybe once Bluetooth is working there will be a device to add 3g via Bluetooth. But there is not, as far as I know, 3G hardware available on the NC board... yet.

I'll make it simpler than the others...
Sorry, no.

Sadly the nook doesn't really have the capacity to add 3G hardware. Some tablets do have full sized USB ports that can physically connect to a USB 3G modem, but there is no built in driver support on those tablets either. Your only real option currently is wifi tether to a 3G phone.

Just in case any of these replies are missing information you need:
1. No, you can't add 3g to the Nook, in fact this is why i love it as a tablet - no extra data plan to pay for
2. BUT you can easily use the nook's wifi to connect to a portable hotspot
3. You could if you wanted buy a portable hotspot (e.g. Mifi, or overdrive), but these come with expensive data plans
4. You can use your regular cellphone. This requires rooting on an android device, and I do not know if this is possible on other platforms. Anyway, I reccommend "wireless tether" as the app to use simply because it can be set up to only communicate with MAC addresses that it approves (it's great being in an airport and seeing all the internet leaches being bounced off your phone's hotspot).
5. If you are super lucky, your phone will operate as an 'infrastructure network', and you can stop reading right now! ;-) However, more than likely, your phone will operate as an "adhoc" network, not an "infrastructure" network. This requires some tweaking of your nook on 2.1 ROMS (there's several threads on this), but is built into 2.2 (which is a major reason to move to Froyo).
6. The ad-hoc fix is a bit buggy, and whatever B&N changed in 1.1 makes this much worse. Again there's several threads describing this. In 1.01 the solution as to use an app to shut down and restart the wifi as the screen shut down or tuned off. BUT THIS DOES NOT FIX THE PROBLEM IN 1.1 AND IF ANYTHING MAKES IT MORE ANNOYING.
7. Basically there is some issue in 1.1 where when the nook wakes, the wifi is on but it may not reconnect to a network until you tell it to. This happens occasionally for the stock wifi, but happens continuously with the ad-hoc fix. The best workaround i have found is to have an app called "wifi buddy" in my dock - then when the machine wakes up if it can't see the network, i just launch wifi buddy and it connects immediately.
Hope that helps

I am using PDAnet on the iPhone. It's free and also offers the option to broadcast a WiFi hotspot. Other iPhones and my laptop see the hotspot but the Nook does not. Has anyone tried that yet?

Found the answer!
Ad-hoc fix for tethering
I found a great guide to use PDAnet (free version) for tethering the NC with my iPhone 3Gs. Hooray for this awesome forum!

If you could somehow get the SoC from the Droid X in there... it might be remotely possible. But the time and effort required would make this a purely "did it to say I did" type of hack.
