wifi tethering problems

ok im having some troubles with wifi tethering. i have tried barnacle and i cant even get my laptops to detect the network im broadcasting with my phone. when i use wireless tether for root i can get a connection but its not a good connection at all. i cant even get google to load. im using damage control 2.09.01 on a sprint hero... thanks in advance for any help... also i need this working hopefully before Saturday as i go on vacation and my hero was going to be the internet for my laptop

Probably belongs in the Q&A section, no?

Yes, should go in q&a, but, barnacle is a no go for heros, and make sure you use wireless tether 1.6 (do not get from market, get from google code website)

Danaff why not 2.02? I recently upgraded to this. To the one who started the thread do u have USB debugging enabled ?

I haven't tried 2.02, although I believe it was made for evo specifically, but may work fine. Before, though, only 1.6 worked for heros

It was only happening to me on the OC Roms. I tried without the OC Rom and it works as it should.

If your using 2.02 start the app then switch yout phone to airplane mode then back, THEN connect with your laptop.

What ROM are you using. I think it only locks on the .29 kernel, more so for the DC based ROMs.

I'm having problems with my wifi-tethering can anyone help me? I went ahead and installed wifi tether 2.0.2 on top of the stock 1.6 that came and since this thing has gone crap. I have found 1.06 but even after installing it, it won't work. Any suggestions? Rom I have is PureHero 2.1 Maps/Overclocked.

Using purehero 2.1 I always get unable to start tether with every version of wifi tether except 1.6. However with 1.6 it overheats the phone, even when underclocking, and when I try to shut it off it freezes the phone and reboots. If I try to end tether in autokiller the icon goes away but the phone is still tethering. Ended up tethering all night one night and my son was on watching anime on his ipod touch. When I got up in the morning and grabbed my phone I thought it was on fire.
So which ROMs does 2.0.2 or 2.0.5 work on? I really need to fix the overheating issue as I live in Arizona and at this time of the year it is difficult to keep things from over heating on their own lol.
Thanks

Any Rom that isn't OC'd for sure. and I think any Rom that isn't the DC .29 kernel. Havent been able to actually confirm that though just my theory.
Edit: actually my statement was for 1.6. 2. 0. 2 is still in experimental stage for the hero

The option to uninstall wasn't there for pure hero 2.0.9 or whatever I have. Anyway, I just deleted the APK, then installed 2.0.2 and it still didn't work. However I was then able to properly uninstall 2.0.2 so when I installed 2.0.5 it worked. Works good now, only thing I have noticed is that I changed the SSID but it doesn't actually change.

Thanx for the help but I just went back to rom that's not oc

Rockplayer not For slide?

So I tried this beta app out. Played every file possible, or at least tried to, and nothing! It seems to work for everyone else on diff handsets. Anyone else try this?
Redownloaded and installed a few times and nothing.

It may be that the developer has not yet updated the app to support the Mytouch Slide hardware...email the dev and ask the to add support for your device...

I thought about it but the app is a closed beta that got leaked and I'm 95% sure he only speaks chinese and uses translation tools.

i read it was based off processor, magic, dream, hero wont work as they dont support it.

seems to work for most of my movies, have several mpgs and avi files that it played decently, i have had a few problems with it lagging in audio or audio cutting in and out, and only one file refused to play at all(and by that i mean no sound and ~1fps while counter at bottome went as normally would)

I just downloaded it. I'm at work so I only have 2 .avi files to try out but they both worked great and when you move it to another point it starts almost instantly. Such a great app.

Sprint apps

Any way to get sprint apps to work on the eris, specifically the nascar app?
Sent from my FroyoEris using XDA App

Nope only with a sprint phone, but you can always root and see if you can make the android market think you have a sprint phone, like a HTC Hero

it could work maybe if some one hacks it, i say this cause i have a hacked ver. of black board which is only free for those on sprint and im on verizon

Thanks for the Replies . I have rooted , running Kaosfroyo v32.

There are a few forums looking into getting it to work. If you google sprint nascar app hack it should bring them up. Progress is probably somewhere around 60% but I suspect by next season it will be up and running Barring any set backs.

I did look into it, like you said seems to be a work in progress.

[Q] Rom for use on WIFI ONLY, with no carrier?

Hey guys, running CM6 on my hero, I got my hands on another hero and I want to set it up to use as a VOIP phone at my house on wifi. I need a rom that will allow me to setup and use WITHOUT having a carrier attached, anyone know of anything?
Thanks

I just turn on airplane mode, then engage wifi. Cyanogen 6 and 7 both work for me. Aosp does too.
I don't use voip services so I can't say much there.
Hope this helped a little.

I am thinking of upgrading to an EVO and I want to give my 9 year old my Hero to use like a ITouch for games and music. Would this work for that as well?

Wifi hack

Ok I did the wifi hack yesterday and I whent back to stock to do it can I reflash cm9 and keep that hack I did or do I have to redo the radeo hack?
Sent from my DROID3 using XDA

The WiFi hack is based on the radio.img which ROMs do not flash over. Only when you sbf the phone do you need to redo the hack (or Motorola pushes out an update with updated kernel/radio images).
I do not know if Hashcode's ICS has the stock "Hotspot" app or if even works on ICS.
WiFi Tether apps do work under ICS so you don't actually need the radio hack.

Ok thank you and I know the wifi apps work om ics but it did not work on my wii for online play but the wifi hack did I guss I can try other wifi apps with it and see but thank you for your help man

So you use data from your D3 to play online with your Wii? How good does that work. I would think that would be pretty laggy?

Could you post that .apk file here? Just change .apk to .txt and upload it to a post as an attachment. Thanks. I don't feel like doing that spam survey crap.
