I have not ever had any trouble with it working, its just always worked for me. I'm currently running cog 2.2b6.
When you go in into mobile ap and select the check box to turn it on does it even act like it is working? Can you change the id and toggle on wpa encryption?

Thanks for the quick response. Yes to all that. I just dont get why it doesnt connect anymore. Im on cog beta 7. Didnt work on stock or beta 5.5 6 either.

Does your computer see the wireless signal? Do you get the notification that it is active on your phone? The blue wireless icon?

Same questions a newt plus are you attempting to run with encryption on or off?

For me, mine takes forever to obtain an IP address. Do ipconfig from dos and verify if your adapter is being assigned a DHCP address. For me, it can take up to 2 minutes. It is not my laptop either, this happens with any device I try to attach and my laptop works fine with any other AP.

[Q] Yahoo log in required?

Just today with my rooted but otherwise stock Captivate I am getting a log in screen for the default Yahoo home page.
Anyone else having this issue?
I guess I can just change my home page.
Are you on wifi or at&t service?

On AT&T. Haven't checked Wifi. Currently not on.
Do you have a login? Because my theory is that it wants to bring you somewhere other than under homepage.

I never needed a log in before. It just pulled up the ATT/Yahoo page. I did sideload an app recently, though I don't know how that would affect the default homepage login.
What app did you sideload?

It was a very simple app my brother-in-law developed for me. It just takes a couple of variables and calculates something involving an arctangent and displays it.
If you allowed it to access three internet, it might mess with the settings. Try uninstalling the app and see if that does anything, or, just change your homescreen to google or something lol.

Sounds like it's a vibrant ROM thing... you get the t-mobile/yahoo page as default.
Too strange though.

Yeah I will uninstall it to see. Can't imagine that it accesses the net, but my B-in-law is just getting his feet wet with Android programming.
<pause> Uninstalled it and still get log in screen. I will reboot.
<pause> Rebooted -- same problem. Guess I'll just pick a different homepage.

As soon as I find the update I will post it as you all know you will have to uninstall and install the new one.

tethering availability

hello, just wondering if anyone manage to work the tethering? I tried the foxfi app but no luck, even the es file manager app under net manager option didn't work, haay

Foxfi works fine for me. When you get the pop up telling you to contact att press the home button instead of tapping ok. The hot spot stays active this way

It stays active but did you actually connect to it and surf the Internet?

Foxfi doesn't work on and it connects but surfing the Internet is a no go we need an alternative.

Yea with a grandfathered unlimited plan so an actual tethering plan from at&t isn't offered to me. I'd be more than happy to pay the small fee if it were even offered though...

Yesterday I tried feverishly to get foxfi to work with no luck even doing it exactly as op had done. So now I see this thread and figure okay ill try again.... and guess what.... it worked... The only thing I can think of that I didn't do yesterday is I rebooted the phone this morning. ..

I use EasyTether and it works great for my needs.
You have to enable USB Debugging mode in order for it to work. I had a heck of a time finding it, so here is a quick howto...
From home, press "Apps" menu, press "Settings", press "General" tab, press "About Device", press "Build number" seven consecutive times and you should get messages about having "Developer Mode" being turned on. That's it!
Hit back and you should now see a new "Developer options" selection in the menu. Press "Developer options" and just check mark "USB debugging" if you want to enable it.
Does EasyTether support wi-fi tethering or mobile hotspot?
$.01 via NOTE 3

No, only USB and Bluetooth... I haven't found a non-root solution for WiFi yet.
You can Bluetooth tether it to another android device/tablet...
FWIW, Foxfi is working on my AT&T GN3. As others have said, just hit the home button when the popup appears. Also, I've noticed when connecting with my laptop, full internet isn't available for the first 30 seconds or so, so just give it time...
Subscribed for Samsung Wifi HotSpot Option = )
yep confirmed working with foxfi, the thing is I always need to setup the password everytime I activate the foxfi to work the secured wpa2

Confirmed working with FoxFi without issues with password with everything saving.

Do you need root to use Foxfi for tethering? This is to use the note 3 as a hotspot right?....meaning that I am connecting my other tablets to the note 3 and using its lte data?

Did you guys try any tethering widget?? for AT&T Galaxy S4 wifi tethering doesn't work directly but if you install any tethering app it will work.
Here is the one I've tried from Play store and its free.
'Tethering Widget' by HI-DEVELOP
Install the app and look for 'Tethering (full)' .
once you add this widget click thering widget(make sure you click the Wifi icon not the USB icon'.
This should enable wifi tethering.
Let me know if it works or not..
Now that we have root, can we just freeze tetheringProvsion under titanium backup & use the native app?

Do you have tethering enabled? I'm guessing here because I have never seen that message when I connect my AHD to my pc.

I've never run 4.3 or 4.4 so that's why I've never seen that message.

it shows up as a lan connection for some reason.
if it really bugs you, just go into control panel on windows and disable it.

How to connect without nfc

Hi guys im running null on my gear and I've just flashed a custom rom on my note 3. Which for some reason has disabled my nfc.
As such I'm unable to connect my gear to my phone. Is there another way to do it? I've tried to connect manually but it doesn't show contacts or notifications etc it only allows me to use it as a bluetooth hands free kit.

Thanks for taking the time to reply. That was the second thing I tried and I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong.
The watch does connect to the phone audio. But when I try to connect manually the watch does not show on the phone so I can't get notifications, use the media player etc.
