[Q] Best ROM for enterprise wifi

I'm new to the forums but I have tried to read through as much as I can. I updated to 2.2 last week with the update from samsung. I knew that the "update" wouldn't work any better with my work's wifi connection but I wanted to try anyways.
My question is, out of all the roms out there, do any of them work using 802.1x security with authentication through peap and mschapv2?
I can see our network but can't connect to it, our radius servers don't even see my connection attempts. I work in the school's IT department so we have spent a pretty fair amount of time trying to make this work. Not just for me, but for other android users as well.
I've tried using a few of the wifi apps but none of them seem to help.
I am using a samsung captivate on att, not rooted.
Thanks for any help

Add the network manually and select the right authentication method. In settings>wireless

Thanks for the reply but I've been through the whole wifi menu and tried different settings and I can't seem to get anything to work so I was thinking of rooting and loading a rom if enterprise wifi connections are better.

Any rom is basically going to work the same as far as wifi goes. As long as you can select the settings to match your network as shown in the screenshot, it should work.

Not always. If he needs and ad-hoc connection he needs to use a different wpa_supplicant than the one that comes with stock and many of the custom roms. As well, it is possible that the dhcpcd on the rom he is running is not capable to obtain ip/dns/subnet from his particular network.
Take a look here for the dhcp info and here for the supplicant thingy (not sure if is compatible with galaxy s, there was one for SGS floating around but cant find it atm)
If still doesnt work, it should work by editing the bcm... something.conf in data (i dont have my phone with me.)
EDIT: Im using my phone with LEAP / IPsec and is a pain to configure it without an app that someone made for this specific network configuration

Unknown phone call tried to access root

I received a phone call on my phone yesterday afternoon from the number +162599121 which tried to gain root access to something called data center on the phone. I didnt know what it was but I allowed it to pass through, though i did not pick the call.
Then when I got up this morning I saw this on the phone.

By any chance are these two related? Did some googling and found out that other people are also getting this but no one seems to know what it is. I'm from singapore running a rooted, but completely stock unbranded Samsung LSE ROM (Singapore CSC) and Speedmod kernel.

You are using 3g without any signal.. Amazing! Well never heard of this case that preconfig is requesting su permissions before at xda. It's a system file look at screenshot

Its pretty common to get 3G or even HSPA with zero bars here.
Anyway I found out that preconfig might have something to do with changing the CSC of the phone. Im already using a ROM with my region's CSC so there should not be a need for it. And I doubt samsung will try to change it in any way.

BUMMMMMP

[Q] Mystery "streaming media" app using data

Hey all,
Droid 3 using Minimoto 1.7 (Safestrap install) here. I've been using the phone as normal for almost a year before this happened -
{
"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"
}
Can anyone help me figure out what this "streaming media" app is? I was using the internet as normal one day and suddenly I noticed it had gulped 100MB in a very short time. At that point I thought it might have been the Youtube app (which Advanced Task Killer reported was running in the background) streaming crap so I deinstalled the app (also turned off 'allow apps from unknown sources'), rebooted the phone, and very carefully browsed for a bit while checking the data usage frequently. Suddenly it had taken another 130 MB.
I only have 500MB per month which is my only non-work internet access and I watch it like a hawk. This "thing" has now eaten half of that. Extremely annoyed!
Right now the only thing I have installed that might be considered "streaming media" is Soundcloud, which I haven't even run in a couple months. I'm getting worried about malware, etc. as I have no idea what this is nor what it's doing. I've never seen that show up in the data logger before. BTW the data logging app is My Data Manager but I have confirmed the extra data use appears on my bill, i.e. it is 'real' data and not just a bug in the app. I have "auto update apps" turned off in the Play Store and the "system updates" screen comes up blank (didn't think Minimoto would 'pull in' updates anyway?)
Also, I put my SIM card back in my old phone (HTC Dream running Android 1.5) and it works just as it always did with no unexplained data. At this point I don't want to get the Droid online at all for fear that it would gobble up the rest of my data and go over. (I thought of running something like Avast or Malwarebytes but it seems they are only legitimately available from the play store which means the phone must be online - argh!)
Any help appreciated - thanks in advance!

Unlimited Tethering Method Question

I am on T-Mobile
I know of the build.prop edit way, and the sqlite way .. Being on T-Mobile, which one of these methods is the correct way to enable unlimited data tethering?
Dirty Unicorns shamu

Anyone?
SimpleAOSP shamu

SQLlite. I am on a T-Mobile unlimited plan with no tethering allotment, and it works perfectly with the sqllite edit.
Not trying to be a douche, but you shouldn't bump a post earlier than 24 hours has passed. it's in the rules here.

Didn't know that sorry to the mods/forum..and thanks for the clarification on the tether issue
SimpleAOSP shamu

I am having problems with tethering. I have it working with the tether_dun_required 0 using sqlite
My problem is really strange it still accumulates on my t-mobile account.
I go to my account in t-mobile where I have 3GB of tethering
and it still shows up as MB's used and even stranger is the fact that I am using GB's but it only registers to my account as MB's.
Notification states wifi hotspot is on but no device connected.
This is a recent issue because up until a couple of days ago nothing registered to my account I am at a loss at what to try next.
I have tried on multiple roms with the same result anyone have any ideas?

How to get free WI-FI Anywhere

Wi-Fi is available anywhere nowadays, but they have passwords. the best Wi-Fi is free Wi-Fi. Just be careful and find a free public Wi-Fi, which may not be secure. Here are some tips and tricks to help you stay connected with wifi while on the go.

Your Android Smartphone will already tell you your Wi-Fi connection is secured or not. Go to the Settings Then Wi-Fi and look for connections that are labeled ‘open’ or ‘unsecured’ and connect. Mostly look around public spaces, like cafes and Malls for passwords to be posted, or ask their neighbor if you can want to use their Wi-Fi network for a bit. The important thing you should remember to use your scanner and keep your eyes peeled.

Also, did you know that if you ask nice enough to any stranger in the mall, he/she might allow you to pair your phone via Bluetooth just for the LULZ...?
