Use your PC's internet connection on your phone. No more pain of wasting your precious mobile data!
you need to have a PC with working internet connection and a rooted android device.
Making it happen:
1)Connect your Android to your desktop/laptop via USB cable (dont forget to turn on USB debugging )
2)Download, extract the attachment and Open android tool application file present in the extracted folder

3)click “Connect”. this will install the latest android package and the dependencies (busybox and redsocks) and SuperUser will ask you to allow “Usb tunnel”
make sure you allow it.
now you phone has an internet connection and you can use it just by minimising the USB Tunnel app...
to stop the service, just click on disconnect on your pc (android tool app) or stop service on USB Tunnel in your phone..
play store doesn't work
actually all google apps do not work

Not all PC's have that ability. Doubly so if your PC uses Wifi to connect to the internet since most Wifi cards can only either connect or be connected to and not both at once . Or like in my case where my PC's wifi card severely sucks and is barely usable to connect to the internet to begin with...I use my old Defy as my PC's Wifi now because my internal card is that bad (plus I can use a really long usb cord and get the phone closer to the router )
Defy runs CM10.1 -- its faster and more stable than ours with much better battery life (double cool). F Popeye's Chicken, Quarx is the shiznit....and Blechd0se and Maniac103 and Epsylon3...I'm sure there's more, but those are the main Defy devs I was exposed to.
/Defy has 3+ years of development behind it on a platform our devs would rather be working on (TI OMAP), that's why its better . I just had to clarify that so no one thinks I'm downing our devs. A few months on a new platform doesn't compete with a few years on a known platform.
//If anyone needs a cheap replacement phone, buy a Motorola Defy or Bravo. They're both built well and have a great dev supporting them, Quarx.

The download in this thread corresponds to version 3.3; it is up to version 3.7 now. I tried v. 3.7 and it also works. To make sure i disabled WiFi and wireless data. There is a hack for Google apps, I haven't tried it.

Guys,
need your help. Computers dont see my device even like usb device (i tried on several PCs). Normally windows flashes when see that usb device is connected, but in my case nothing is happenning. The same story with ActiveSync. PDA also just shows that battery is charging and doesnt show any signs that pc is connected. I've made several hard resets but it didnt help. Other functions work perfect. Please advice.
did you try a different cable? and check the usb port on your device

Yep, I did. I used different cables and tried on several computers. No success...
Go to start, settings, connections tab at the bottom. Click on USB to PC, uncheck advanced network funtionality. If it's uncheck try checking it. Also make sure that you have activesync version 4.5. If you are still unable to connect try disabling your windows firewall or norton, mcafee etc.
make sure Windows Mobile based device connectivity
is enabled in services.

I followed your advice and unchecked and checked it again. It didnt help. I also checked mcaffee, it doesnt conflict with activesync and before i didnt experience any problems with mcaffee and my pda connection. So the problem is not in win.firewall (disabled) and mcaffee. I use Activesync 4.5, build 5096. I think the problem is in my PDA, cause i tried to connect it to different computers and it wasnt recognized even as usb device as normally happens when you connect any usb device to pc.

if you dont see it, you may need to reinstall windows mobile device center
Did it ever connect?
Having the windows services started will not effect the device being detected as a USB device...it should at least show up in device manager.
If you have already tried this on several computers with several cables and have also tried unchecking the advanced USB functionality as described above, then I hate to say it but either you have no idea what you are doing (unlikely...as it's pretty simple to plug in a phone) or the phone is bad.
There are quite a few things that can stop the phone from Activesyncing properly....but not much that would prevent it from coming up in device manager.
You might want to try syncing over Bluetooth if your PC has it.

It worked perfect before, but recently ceased to communicate
You don't need that service... he is showing you a Vista machine and yours is XP.
And, as stated no running service is going to cause the device to not be seen via device manager, that is a low level hardware bus even before drivers for the device are installed (assuming the USB bus and host adapters work).
First work on getting it seen in device manager and then worry about how to get it to sync.
Check your USB port on the phone and see if the plastic core is straight across or curved down. If curved, the problem is likely the port itself.
If you have one of the HTC splitters that allows you to use headphones and charger simultaneously, try connecting via that.
i doubt its the usb port, im pretty positive its the service. My kaiser wont connect without the service under Vista. doesnt even show up as a generic device.

That is a service that is new to vista. XP doesn't have that service. But you are correct, mobile devices won't connect without it running in Vista.

Coming from a PC technician, test it with everything in McAfee disabled. Don't just assume there is no conflict because it doesn't report it. Although you said you tried it on several PC's so that would eliminate it as a suspect .
BTW, what changed when you noticed it was no longer connecting? New software, new ROM, etc... Is it still under warranty?
If there were no software changes preceding the problem, I'd go back and check the hardware possibilities. I can't think of anything that would disable the service unless you tried to run some type of system optimizer.
Hi,
This may help
> Start > Right click on My computer > Properties > Hardware (tab) > Device manager
It will open a list of devices , find USB controller ( Universal Serial Bus Controller )
Right click on it > Update ( or something like that ) . ( make sure your kaiser connected to pc through miniusb )
If it doesnt say anything about recognizing your kaiser. Try to delete (uninstall ) some ( or all ) of the items in USB controller ( above ) .
And then, update it again.
It worked for me most of the time when my pc dont recognize the device.
Goodluck

Hi All
What is Internet Sharing? is it a program? I cant find this on my ATT Tilt. Can someone explain or direct me how to use internet sharing?? Thanks
Did you even use the Search button??? A simple query of Internet Sharing on the Tilt brought back 10 pages of results, & a ton of them would of pointed you to the solution. Don't be lazy! This is a community & as such certain thing are expected of it's members.
Here you go, your one & only spoon feeding.

It's hidden by AT&T. You can find the .exe in \windows. Copy it & paste a shortcut in \windows\start menu\programs.
Now wipe your chin.
Don’t mind the abrasive Yank (lol). Internet sharing simply allows you to share your internet connection on your Kaiser with your laptop/computer. It is perfect for those who have unlimited data (like me).
To use internet sharing, you have to connect your Kaiser via the supplied USB or Bluetooth. If you don’t have internal Bluetooth and are void of a Bluetooth adaptor, then the USB cable is the best way to share your Kaisers internet- and it also seems to be quicker!
Thanks for the spoon feeding yummy. Will search in the future.

Find and run the Internet Sharing program. May have to search the windows folder. Select USB or BT, select Media Net (works for me), press connect and than connect the phone to computer. Not sure about XP but Vista picks up the connection as soon as I plug in with USB. With BT you have to go to the PC and select BT PAN and than connect.
Should be that simple...

There have been numerous 'how to thread's but the search function is pretty
poor. I suggest you use internet sharing on your laptop/computer by using the USB cable, as the internet speeds are quicker.
1) Connect your Kaiser to your laptop/computer via the USB cable (which should have been supplied with your Kaiser)
2) Click on 'Start' then 'Programmes', then onto 'internet Sharing'.
3) Select 'USB Sharing' under the PC Connection type setting.
Then click on your web browser and you're good to go
This is how it works for me on a relatively new Windows Vista laptop with my MDA Vario III. I haven't tried it on my XP computer.
at0mAng & 246810, cheers, do you need activesync on ther pc? as i have tried the above with XP and it aint having it???
works great for me with a brand new laptop w/ XP and yes I do have activesync but it is disabled once you use ICS on your kaiser
digging up abit of an old issue here, but still cant get it to work?

I have my micro usb connected to usb port 2 for the android auto. Make sure the parking brake is set the first time you set up android auto. Might also have to have usb debugging turned on. Only works right now with certain phones, and needs lollipop 5.0 or better. You probably already knew that. If you haven't done the firmware update for the 4100, do that first.
Worked the first time with my Nexus 6.

Yes my parking brake is on. I have the Galaxy S6 which is not in the supported list but it does have Android 5.0 and I was able to download Android Auto App from Google play... I also attempted to do it with my old Galaxy S4 but it doesn't have Android 5.0 so cant download Android Auto... and to top that for MirrorLink I guess I need this Samsung Drive Link App which is not compatible with either phone!
its frustrating... Samsung is not keeping up with the Car technology... for the most part on Samsung's end I keep hearing it mostly works with the Galaxy S3 and some people have it working half ass on the Galaxy S5.

Here is the Amazon link for the Microbpass that is needed for the 4100,

Thanks
The bypasses are relatively easy to make with a relay as well. The reason you can't just ground it out is they went above and beyond to make sure it is only active when the break is on. So, you have to create a delay in the bypass. Attach the amp on wire to the relay, the ground and the emergency break, and you're good to go. It is cheaper and quicker, as any decent electronic store will have the relay. Mine was $4 from RadioShack (RIP). This diagram shows it...

You do not need a bypass! I just bought the 6100-nex. Turn off radio to standby mode. Hold finger 1/2" up from bottom and 1/2" in from left side of screen for like 30-60 seconds. There are YouTube vids on it. Works on all nex radios. Also only the Samsung MHL/HDMI 2.0 adapter will work. NOT the pioneer one.

How do you get the chromecast set up to work outside your home network?

Click to expand...

-Turn on your phone's WiFi hotspot
-Connect a computer to it
-Set up your chromecast to use your phones hot spot as the network
-Plug your chromecast into your radio
Now whenever you want to use your Chromecast you just have to turn on the hotspot feature on your phone. The Chromecast will connect to the hotspot and you can cast to it just like it was on your home (or any other) network.
Thanks!
Stupid question... This vs mirroring or like the unchained app.... no cables?? Not trying to be an ass about to pull the trigger on the appradio4 or 4100-nex so trying to see all the possibilities.. Thanks

Thank you! Just got the 6 edge plus last week which lacks any form of video out via hdmi/mhl which was unfortunate but this would resolve that issue! Going to try this asap
Got mine all hooked up yesterday. Seems to be working good. Kind of takes a bit of time getting all synched up, but works good when going.
Sent from my P01MA using Tapatalk
This might be a stupid question, but if you set your Chromecast up to stream to your AVH-4100NEX over your phone's WiFi hotspot and then bring it back into your house to plug into your TV will it automatically recognize your home WiFi network or do you have to set it up again? I haven't gone through the initial setup process with my Chromecast for a while so I don't remember if it has memory for prior network setups. Not that I'll use the Chromecast in my car all that much, but they are cheap enough to justify buying two units if it becomes a hassle to reconfigure the Chromecast every time you transfer it between your home and car.

I don't think so. As far as I know, the Chromecast will only look for the network it was set up on. ( sorry for the late response.)
Hey all!
Just got the phone and I'm loving it so far.
Recently I tried to transfer files over to the MI mix using a otg cable and a USB 3.0 thumbdrive. The miui did not respond to the otg plug in. However the file management app `esfile` detects the otg (pop up to ask for permission to be the default app to handle the drive), but upon opening the app, the otg drive was not shown...
Tried the otg setup on a nexus 6p and it works without problem.
Any pointers? Thanks!
Edit: I'm on the EU ROM
Thank God someone else has noticed this, i have been unable to get this feature working, however the MiMix does recognise peripherals such as USB mice but haven't been able to get it to work with any USB external storage options, would appreciate some steer from senior members.

Thanks for confirming the issue. May I know what ROM you are using? I think I jump straight to EU rom without ever testing the Chinese Stable ROM. I may flash it back just to see if it works.

Hi, I have the same problem, and I really need to copy files from my MIX to a USB drive for my clients. Any solution or workaround?
I am in the latest CH stable ROM, no unlocks or flashes. I've tried several USB drives ranging from 256MB to 32GB, all formatted with every available file system, but no result.
I would like to be able to utilize OTG as well, I'm on EPIC ROM 7.1.19 hope some one can figure it out.
I have used OTG Dtech with Mi Mix that is working fine, no problem.
I hadn't known there was an issue I was able to move data between the usb flash drive and the phone on mine.
okay, this is Xiaomi messing about and its so frustrating
I am one of the people using a non rooted phone with over the air updates
HOWEVER, I am part of the pre release group that gets roms early
Now, when I got my phone initially with Miui 6, USB otg didn't work
The pre release beta solved this, without issues, happy days
NOW THE WARNING
just upgraded to
Android 6.0.1 MXB48T
MIUI 8.7.3.9 Beta
Kernel 3.18.20-perf-g459b3d5-336479-gc53fe55
And they've killed it again
I am PRESUMING this is ( as I am fully aware, I am using Beta software ) that this is a bug
However, if this is on purpose, I am very frustrated with the reasoning ( or lack of it ) behind it
My previous pendrive was ExFat which is unsupported format for Es file explorer(as is pop up showing), once formatted it on Mix, now works on latest Epic rom 7.3.9.

Still trying to get xiaomi to agree boot unlock before I get the epic rom
Hopeful though, it sounds far better
I found if the drive isn't fat32 you will need a 3rd party app to interact with the files [I use exFat/NTFS for total commander - as it works on non-rooted devices].

Ha, yes I do IT work. I normally have so many cat5 cables around me it's better than wifi calling (most places don't have great wifi in their server closets) or att service for that matter
I used to use hangouts dialer to make calls over the network, never had reception issues with that method
What much better devices were you talking about? I'm curious now
For mobile IT I got a Viliv N5 a long time ago, loaded Debian on it [got everything working properly after awhile of fiddling] and now use it as my mobile trouble shooter [Kit of extra's in a bag with it].
http://www.umpcportal.com/2010/07/viliv-n5-umpc-full-review/
I have the verbatim USB SD card adapter, and a 128gb Samsung Microsd card.
I can open and read files in the Microsd card using the mix. However, when I try to transfer files using Explorer copy and paste in USB, transfer progress gets to 80-100%, then the UsB status goes to ejecting and checking for errors.
I have enabled developer options and install via USB. I have also enabled documents under installed apps.
I'm using official global stable rom and locked bootloader.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!!
I am assuming my USB external DAC issue falls along with this bug.
My Google Pixel works fine with any USB OTG device (DAC/USB Stick/ etc...)
But the Mix will not detect it even if I go into the developer settings and change the options like Xiaomi themselves recommend doing! This is so frustrating.
I got USB OTG to work with another adapter (Meenova). In my case my issue was adapter hardware related.........hope this information may help!
Hi there!
Well i cannot make otg wotk on my mix any way. I've just the one adapter and I do not know which type is it but I use it on my Nexus 5 no problem with a Sandisk Ultra USB 3.0 32gb stick... I've tried with all apps you mentioned in this thread and some more... It is not detected on twrp either.
Any ideas?
Thanks!
Hi all,
Dropped my phone and the phone stopped responding. I tried replacing the screen but this made no difference.
Since the phone was just not turning on at all (no sort of response), I tried to replace the charging port after (after the drop, the sim card tray was damaged so thought the issue might be around here).
After I replaced the charging port, I managed to get the notfication light flashing (with a power source) and now it is solid.
When I connect it to my PC, I hear the notification sound when a device has been connected but unable to view any files or see it show in my PC.
I feel like I'm close to getting the phone working but not quite there yet. I am mainly interested in just recovering the data.
Any help would be much appreciated.
In this case, you need a screen, either on the phone itself, or an external one, and a mouse to navigate the options, if you manage to get the screen to work, enable USB debugging, run adb devices, if your phone shows up as a device (reference screenshot:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
), you can run adb pull /sdcard/ to copy all the files from it to your PC, but if it shows up as unauthorized (reference screenshot:
), you need to allow usb debugging on the phone, then run adb pull /sdcard/ to copy the data.
And remember for the sake of god NEVER use MTP if you're copying more than one small file at a time, as it is known to corrupt large files, or large quantities of files, if you do not want corruption use adb pull

Thank you for your reply - do you have any recommendations here? Specifically for xiaomi 9t pro? I read somewhere an MHL cable would not work
Dropped my phone and it stopped working. Replaced screen, still doesn't work. Replace charging port and notification light started blinking and turned solid though I don't see it anymore.
But the phone connects to the PC - I just can't access the phone. Using ADB I get a serial number followed by unrecgonised.
What can I use for this phone to get some sort of display, and something to control? Based in UK so any UK links would be appreciated.

The cable you got with the phone should work for this.

Well, unrecognized means ADB does not even know what type of device is that, that's not good.
Any dock for a macbook using USB-C should work, as for proper stuff:
https://www.amazon.co.uk/UGREEN-Multiport-Adapter-Ethernet-Compatible-Grey
https://www.amazon.co.uk/UGREEN-Aluminium-Delivery-Charging-Compatible-Space-Grey
These two should also work with it.

Sorry, not sure why I said unrecognised - I get unauthorised like you mentioned before. Will try these options, thank you.

Are you sure these work? I have another working 9T pro and cannot get any display. I'm using https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B07PPGWQ15/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Well, there is no way to be sure if these will work, it's just a guess based on what standards the phone supports

Ok, so, you somehow need to authorize the PC for USB Debugging
