hi guys. im new for this, i got old phone from my sister sony ericsson e15i and i wanna use for mobile hotspot. but i can find hotspot portable in menu " Wireless & Network " --> Tethering,. there only usb tether not wifi tethering.
can someone help me with this case, its use gingercruzt mod, 2.3 android. when i reboot there's clockwork cyanogend mod etc.
how can i tethering wifi from my phone? i try foxfi and barnacle its not work.
Thanks
Flash a custom Rom, GingerDx or something.
No other way really than the kind of apps you mentioned (Barnacle works for me). Try to find other similar apps and see if one works for you.
Also, keep in mind that your phone broadcasts in ad hoc mode only, and can only be "seen" by devices that support finding this connection type. Your average smartphone can't do this. Only laptops and some specific smartphone models can.
So, if you are using another mobile phone to find your X8, it's possible that your tether in fact works just fine even though you can't detect it with another phone.
If nothing works, and you really need this for some reason, try another ROM.

I was just browsing the Android Market earlier today and then I found an app called "aNetShare". It does the same as WMWifiRouter (minus a few features such as encryption and custom SSID), but still it works well!
You need a rooted\Dev phone in order to get it working, but it is available for free from the Android Market!
unfortunately like WMWifiRouter i cannot seem to get my linux computer to find the AP, oh well back to tetherbot

Yeah, but the wifi tether only works through the phone's wifi.. then the point is kinda gone.. This one uses the 3G\HSDPA\GPRS connection!
Wifi Tether for Root Users uses EDGE/HSDPA/GPRS. You connect your computer to the phone via wifi, and the phone in turn connects to the internet via EDGE/HSDPA/GPRS. Not sure what else there is. I guess the ability to connect the computer to the phone via BT amd USB.
I'm tring to run WiFi tethering software so I can get internet access on my Toshiba Thrive Tablet. I have an original Motorola Droid phone. I rooted the phone and when I run any WiFi tethering software it's broadcasting in Ad-Hoc mode. For some reason my Tablet can't see any Ad-Hoc networks. So, this is a big problem for me.
My friend has a Droid Incredible and he has a custom ROM installed on his phone and his phone doesn't broadcast in Ad-Hoc mode, his phone broadcasts with a regular WiFi connection. Why does his work that way and mine only works in Ad-Hoc? Do I have to install a custom ROM to get mine to work in regular WiFi mode? If so, which ROM is recommended?
Another solution is to get my Tablet to recognize Ad-Hoc networks. Is there some way to do that also?
Thanks so much for all your help and time!
Which tethering app are you using?
Both Wireless Tether and the 2.2 default 3G Hotspot app are broadcasting in infrastructure mode.
I remember my Wii not being able to connect to a hotspot created via Wireless Tether - did'nt try 3G Hotspot yet...
Well, I've tried different Hot Spot Apps and they are all the same. I used the same app on both my Droid phone and my friends Incredible phone. His phone worked in Infrustructure and mine worked as Ad-Hoc. I don't know what default 3G Hostspot app you are talking about. My phone didn't come with any. From what I was reading it has to do with the hardware of the phone. Since my phone is so old it only supports Ad-Hoc and the newer phones support Infrustructure. I think that's what people are saying.
I've been reading there is a way to make Tablets see Ad-Hoc but I can't find any information on how to do it with the Toshiba Thrive Tablet. I guess there are different patches and you need to find the right version that's compatible with your Tablet.
So, the only solutions I can see is get a newer phone that supports Infrustructure or to find the patch that works with my Tablet and lets it see Ad-Hoc.
Thanks!

Anyone got anything working for this ?
I've tried wifi tether for root users
and lots of others.
Nothing allows for infrastructure. Even tried 3GHotspot.zip and Black Hat zip .
Any help ? Anyone got this working ?
Check themes and apps threads.. if you want to tether to Windows or Linux or another android device only way is wifi tether v3 beta 4 or higher enable mss clamping in settings and you can tether using ad-hoc but that is about it. Is this what you are trying to do??

I'm trying to connect my tablet to share my 4G.
Tablet only connects in infrastructure, not adhoc.
If I can fix on my phone ie add infrastructure, then I'll be ok. Otherwise I'll need to root and mess with the files on my tablet

You might have better luck finding a thread for your tablet and finding out how to change the wpa_supplicant so the tablet will detect an ad-hoc network. I used to have a Samsung Galaxy Tab 7" and had to find a patch and replace the wpa_supplicant (after rooting) so it could detect and connect to my android phone. What kind of tablet?
Only other thing I can think of is install the Verizon Hotspot app and pay for tethering.. that is infrastructure as far as I know.
Hi,
Is there any sulotions for ICS to support ad hoc? I have searched alot and I need to connect my Note to my PC's internet. The problem is that my pc is to old to support connectify etc...
Reverse tethering app uses my data plan in order to appear the connection as 3G. And it uses cable. Not good enough.
Ad hoc would be best option.
Thank you

If you ever heard of an application for Nokia called JOIKU HOTSPOT you will be interested on this topic. I use joiku hotspot on my nokia phone to enable to connect to multiple devices at home. I don't have wired internet. Since this is an ahhoc wifi hotspot I am not updating to ICS unless a hack is available to enable wpa supplicant to "see" the joiku adhoc signal. On gingerbread I had to download and install a modified wpa supplicant file to connect to joiku .

You can try these
I hope those work

I have used joiku on my nokia
exactly i still dont understand wat exact you want.
You saying reverse tethering have some issue - Now reverse tether application using your wired Internet of your PC for your android device
While Joiku spot is for sharing your device network to PC
So question is you want to share net from your device to PC
OR
want to share PC internet to device?
Edit :wat i understand now is
You dont have wifi router, but just you have created wireless netwok (virtual) and you want to share your device net to PC wirelessly
if yes
try this, it have ad hoc support if i remember correctly, since long i have not used it.

I am not the OP. Anyway I want to share my nokia phone internet connection thru joiku with my galaxy note Wifi. I tried ICS briefly but it does not detect joiku. Back to GB now and I can connect to joiku thru nokia phone.

I don't know. It is strange. If i have no credits in my sim card, and I connect to internet via the app, it goes fine. But I can't see connection as 3G and some apps don't work due to this.
Then when I put credits to my sim card, the connection appears as 3G. And the data plan button turns green whenb checking in setings. If i turn of I lose coonection as 3G. Some times it doesn't use data plan, but often it does.
BTW, I never use data plan for anything it is always disabled, but the reverse tether app turns on.
No idea what is wrong.

Hmmm. Your problem has nothing to do with adhoc?

OMG! He said that the reverse tether is not using my data plan. Thats why I wrote that and thats why i ASKED in first post if someone have a solution for AD HOOOOC.
I never asked for anything else than a solution for ad hoc support for ICS for galaxy note.
And u shoud had started ur own post with ur nokia. U ruined the thread too
Hi. I have X8 with FroyoBread on it. My bootloader cant be unlocked and I have stock kernel. When I want to make WiFi hotspot it just doesnt work ( no error). I suppose its because of my kernel or something. I had same issue on Gingerbread v30. Is there any way to fix this?
Stock kernel doesn't support WiFi support. read here
try Barnacle WiFi Tether, that works. I have used it before, but it doesn't support tethering to mobile devices. it works if you connect laptop/pc.
Thanks for the reply. I tried Barnacle and like you said it doesnt work.
Barnacle does work but only allows others to connect to you via ad hoc mode. Only laptops and a limited number of mobile devices are capable of doing so. As far as I know it is not possible to set up the X8 as an infrastructure mode hot spot. Whether it's a hardware or a software limitation, I wouldn't know. Bottom line is - ad hoc is the maximum you're going to get.
