[Q] Tether and Wifi Tether not working - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi World,
I recently updated my phone to 2.2 with odin. I used just the CODE_I9000DXJPA file and did not use any PIT, PDA or CSC file. The phone works fine with data, it just wont tether to my laptop.
Im in Indonesia and have the GT-I9000HKAXSE version. I did the flash with the JPA file only because i could not find CSC and PDA files for my version anywhere :S.
Please help!
Cheers,
Xplice

Hi,
Can you be more specific on the error?
If you are using USB Tethering, make sure your PC have the correct Samsung drivers by installing the latest Kies.
For WiFi Tethering (Mobile AP), do you see the "Mobile AP activated" message on the notification bar? Did you enter the correct SSID & Password in your Laptop?
I also encounter problems with the built in USB/WiFi tethering feature, the internet disconnects intermittently. I am now using Wireless Tether for Root Users app that is available in the Android Market. Try it and see if it works.
btw you need to root your phone first..

Hi,
It is Rooted
There is no error - it just does not work. Data works fine on the phone but for Wifi tether, usb tether and bluetooth tether it says connected and looks fine but does not work.
I don't use kies because it sux
Cheers,
Immanuel

Maybe you want to try out some custom ROM? The one I am using now this one:

I have no issue with tethering.
Just curious, how did you enable bluetooth tethering, I can't find such option in my SGS.

Hi !
i've the same problem.
I'm in france and the tethering doesn't work alone.
The trick is to enter, on your laptop, the right DNS of your provider.
The best is to create a batch file to add and remove the DNS config ;-)
Now you have just to find the DNS ^^

Hi,
Try sla92's suggestion if it will work for you, if you don't know any DNS, try www.OpenDNS.com.
Can you tether before updating your SGS to 2.2? If yes, it might be a bad flash.. try to hard reset. If still have problems, flash a new rom as suggested by xplice.
or update via Kies using Registry Hack http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=835628 this is what I did to update my SGS.

Yeah all tethering worked great on 2.1 :s..... Now none work!
Does anyone know where i can get the PIT, PDA or CSC files for my region (indonesia) ?? I can only find the Europe ones... My suspicion is it is a problem with that as the CSC file controls the radios??
For bluetooth teather you just have to connect via bluetooth to your pc and add as a trusted device and then your pc will see it as a modem, just make sure you give it the right APN for your providor.

the same happends to my galaxy s. it says remember, the u turn wifi off. then u turn wifi on, and it will get ip, first will fail, and the will get it corectly. and it will remain permanently connected. the (*) means that the connection is AD-HOC. i know its kinda buggy but its the best option we have now. i've searched the whole google and i couldn't find a better version. enjoy.
yes, me too T_T : difficultly connect
So, now i will use it til the new one comes
i just flashed the latest official rom 2.3.6 jvu. and now the wpa_supplicant doesn't work anymore. i rolled back to jvz (ad-hoc worked there with this modified wpa_supplicant), and now it doesn't work at all. i turn on wifi (it turns on really slow), and it doesn't see any wifi connection. any solutions guys? please
ad-hoc for CM9
Can anyone build wpa_supplicant supporting ad-hoc wifi for 4.0.3 or CM9.
The files are not working on gingerbread 2.3.6, kernel xxjw4, SE INFRA. Could someone please make it work? thanks

Trouble on wifi. Will this fix it?

Hi. So, I just got a Samsung S3 GT-I9305 from Vodacom. Got it from eBay. But, I'm having trouble connecting to the wifi. Whenever I connect to the wifi it always says "Authentication error occurred". I turned off the wifi thingy using *#0011# and wiped the cache, I even reset the phone to its factory settings. I sometimes connect to a wifi, but it takes 1 hour or so before being connected. And I have trouble downloading from the playstore. Did everything I could find from the web. No luck.
So, I was thinking, If I would flash a custom rom to my device, will it fix the wifi issue? And would any stock firmware of the I9305 device work?
Thanks! Sorry for being noob.

Hi,
I think it could be a router issue. You should :
- reset your router and retry to connect with your i9305,
- play with WIFI network settings in router. Maybe something doesn't allow your i9305 connection (network type, firewall, etc.). I'm not an expert in router settings, so you could google this to help you.
- try another WIFI network (from a friend, at work, anywhere you can test )
I think that flashing a custom ROM won't change anything. First try to fix your problem with stock firmware.
