[Q] USB tethering and Windows 7

Before someone says anything, yes drivers are installed and everything is working on the driver end of things but the problem comes when I plug in my phone and enable the USB tether the network and sharing center in Windows 7 just comes to a complete crawl, also it shows that i have a connection to the internet but i get packet loss.
Anyone else come across this, and any ideas?

Could be that its W7 X64? The drivers are installed and working correctly, what version of W7 you running?

I am also running cm6 final version. Internet works fine about five minute but my phone rebooted. I am wondering if we have similar problems. My wireless mode works fine. However with wifi I seems to run up the temperature of the way up. I worry if my phone can the heat it produce. It constantly stay up at 100 degrees. I need to fix the tethering some how.

[Q] Help!!! Hi guys, I've had a look around the net and asked on other forums

Hi guys, I've had a look around the net and asked on other forums, but can't seem to find the answer to my problems, so someone recommended here.
Apologies, if this has already been covered, but I did have a search and couldn't find what I was looking for.
I think I have two problems, don't know if they are related, but don't think so.
Problem 1:
Got the Galaxy S for my daughter for Christmas. She has never been able to log in to the android marketplace. She was using the her google log in which wasn't a gmail account. Today I signed her up a gmail account, and tried again and got the following error message:
You don't have a network connection.
This could be a temporary problem or your phone may not be provisioned for data services. Please try again when connected to a mobile network, or connect to a wi-fi network. If the problem continues, call customer care.

The phone is definitely connected the net by wi-fi, which I have proved to be working correctly.
Problem 2:
To try and solve problem 1, I thought I would see if the firmware was up-to-date, however, I can't get the phone to connect to Kies. I have tried on two different laptops, one running Vista and one Windows 7. It seems to be saying it's some kind of driver problem. I have clicked on install drivers on Kies, but it makes no difference.
I have made sure the phone is selected Kies. I have also tried selecting mass storage and connecting through My Computer, but still it doesn't recognise the phone.
I believe the phone's firmware is out of date, as it is 2.1 update 1 and I believe 2.2 is available.
Apologies for the long post, can anybody help me to get Kies and marketplace working?
I am not interested in jailbreaking the phone, as it's for my daughter.
The phone is a contract phone, in the UK with orange. I have made sure orange safe guard is not active.
Thanks in advance, if you need anymore infor, i will try and supply it.

Any idea's?

Bump.
Can anybody help or is the best option to try a factory restore / take it back to the shop?

Well there is alot of tread that explain how you connect to kies.
If you can use internet then it should work.
Have you try to power of the phone and wait 5 minutes and then power it on?

I have got the market place working by doing a factory restore, but for the life of me, I can't get the phoned connected to Kies to do a firmware update.
I have tried on 4 different laptops.
1. Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit.
2. Windows 7 Home Basic.
3. Windows Vista.
4. Windows XP.
and I can't get it to connect on any of them.
I have tried un-installing and re-installing Kies. I have tried using different usb wires and ports. Phone charges by usb when plugged in.
I have tried connecting the phone in both Kies mode and Mass Storage mode.
The error I keep getting seems to be a driver error:
Device Driver software was not successfully installed.
Please consult your device manufacturer for assistance in getting this device installed.

Looks like I'll need to take the phone back or ring Samsung.

tell me if that trick works

Are you using a USB hub? If so don't . Plug it straight into the rear USB of your computer.
Do you have Bluetooth active? Turn it off.
Are you using any other Home than the one it came with (the screen you see when you first turn it on)? Go back to the stock TW Launcher
In the Kies Tools menu click on Install Driver and then try again after it's finished.
Finally if it is still not connecting leave it plugged in and go into device manager. If the drivers show up there they should be listed as Samsung i9000 if I remember then right click and un-install drivers then unplug phone and plug it back in after a few moments.

Also use the cabel that did come with.the phone.

[Q] Wireless Sync broken after using Internet Connection Sharing?

Anyone else experiencing this?
Each time I use ICS on my HD7 (T-mobile stock with all current updates) my Zune wireless sync stops working, it simply never syncs with the machine regardless of power state or wireless signal strength.
If I connect via USB and reconfigure for wireless sync in the Zune software it functions perfectly from that point forward until the next time I use ICS, then the cycle repeats.
Anyone, Bueller, anyone?

same here
Thanks for posting your question. I didn't notice mine was not working until I saw your post and tried. So, this morning I went through the the brief wireless sync setup and I will report back if that fixed it.
Also, I have noticed after enabling internet sharing, sometimes I have to restart my phone before wifi will work again.
PS. I am running the Deepshining ROM v2 with TMOUS

working now
So, wireless syncing worked tonight after simply going through the setup process on zune this morning. Next I am going to enable/disable internet sharing and test again. I will report back soon.
---------- Post added at 10:09 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:48 PM ----------
That was fast. Wireless sync just happened after enable/disable of isharing. So it appears just re-setting of the wireless sync in zune is the fix. I will repost if anything changes. Hope this helps!

anyone
anybody else noticed this or have anything to add? I planned on resetting my phone tonight (which changes the MAC) and trying again.

I am going to consider mine fixed
I am going to consider mine fixed. Did a reboot and syncing still worked. Seems just going through the wireless sync setup again has fixed mine.

broken again
ok. I noticed today that my phone has not synced since 12/3. I'm not sure what has changed, but it stopped again. I re-setup wireless syncing through zune again, and it now working. I noticed that the first time my phone wirelessly connects to my laptop to sync, my laptop pops up and indicator saying a driver for my windows phone has been installed. I have not done much with my laptop since the last fix, so I thinking its more on the phone side.
Anyone have any thoughts?
running DS v2 with TMOUS and laptop has W7 home premium

I'm beginning to notice that the wireless sync is breaking regardless of whether I use ICS or not. I thought that was the correlation but no.
Perhaps thewireless sync is bound to the MAC and the MAC is changing after phone reset is the real problem?
Running 7720 TMO stock, haven't received 7740 yet so not sure if that resolves the issue.

The wireless sync problems is caused by random mac#, I had this problem too. Not sure when we'll see an update.

reset
I have confirmed the wireless sync being broken after phone reset. I also believe that is due to MAC randomizing. Knowing is half the battle.

yes you can.

What security is your WiFi using? I've seen issues with either WEP or WPA, Can't remember which. Whichever it is, you might try to change the security type to get it to log on.

yeah I think it was WEP problems in webos

my touchpad don't see any wifi, the little icon in the status bar don't light up. i'm the original os and i'm stuck at the setup page because i need the wifi to set up everything.

When you say that you're on the original operating system which one do you mean as there was 3.00,3.02,3.04 and 3.05.
Have you tried webOS doctor.
When was it last working?

Might also be worth turning off all security on the Wifi temporarily and see if it connects. As others say a little more information, which WebOS, and whether you have doctored, etc recently.

Data Not Working When Mobile Hotspot Active

Hey guys, so the purpose of this thread is to find out if this is a bug or just how the mobile hotspot works on the P9. Everytime my hotspot is active, I can't use data on my device. No other Android device that I've used has ever has this issue with a mobile hotspot.
Is anyone else experiencing this?
Thanks in advance!

Bump. Anyone experiencing this?

I have the same issue. Discovered it the day after i got it took it backed and swapped it, all was good. Then a few days later the new phone developed this issue. The only way around that I have found is forget the network on the device you are trying to tether to your p9, set up the connection again, return to the home screen on your p9, go and make a cuppa for 5 to 10 minutes then hopefully it will be fully connected and be able to share data. Long winded i know and if anyone else has a fix for this i would love to hear it as I'm bored of not being to use all my extra data I've just upgrade to when I want to.

Thank you for the response! Good to know it's not only me. Hopefully this is not an issue in the Nougat build.

I'd of thought a few other people would have this issue. I searched for ages when I first got the phone but couldn't find anyone who was experiencing it and gave up, then accidentally found your post months later. Is your p9 branded? Mine's a Vodafone.

I do not have the phone, so this goes first. But I am vodafone user. Bear in mind that some data plans do not allow tethering. If before you had android KK, there was no problem, but since LL, your phone is sending information of how the data is used. Then, vodafone blocks your connection.
You can try to use an app that is called Tether Unlock. You need root.

Thanks for your suggestion, unfortunately this was my first thought so got Vodafone to check this and I've haven't got any restrictions. Also I can get it to work after a bit of messing about but it's not ideal

So, when you tehter it only works for the first time? That's very weird. Have you tried other roms/updates?
This worries me a bit because i want to buy the phone and i tether every day with my car-radio...

Rogers in Canada. No Canadian carriers have tethering/mobile hotspot restrictions, so that's more of a US thing.

Yeah I try to power down after I forget the WiFi setting as a precaution but always have to forget the network then enter the pass key again for it to fully connect to my p9. I'm using the latest firmware from Vodafone but I don't think they have rolled out nougat yet. Not tried any other roms.
The other option is Bluetooth tether, that works fine for me but but the data speed sucks for browsing or streaming, might be an option to connect to your car radio though but I haven't tried it.

Just got my Mate 10 and have discovered exactly the same problem. As soon as I turn on mobile hotspot, then laptop works fine but all data stops on phone. Thsi is not a network issue as I'm on same network as my previous phone and my package specifically allows tethering.
As soon as I turn off hotpot, data works on my phone again.
Any proper fix appreciated...

Bump this thread. I rebranded my P9 3G+32G to EVA-L19C432 and this problem is happening since the rebranding. The phone itself just loses data when wifi hotspot is turned on while the laptop tethered to the phone has no problem navigating. Before with EVA-AL00C00 firmware, this was not the case. Navigation on the phone was not an issue whether or not wifi hotspot was turned on.
Does anyone have a fix for this problem?

Huawei P9 Lite Hotspot
Don' know if this will fix others but turning on hotspot turns off wifi and mobile data.
After some messing, I realised that I had to MANUALLY turn on mobile data to connect to the internet!
Seems OK so far.
Hope this helps.

How did you solve it? I have p20 pro and it is so ennoying not to be able use data on phone while sharing data... I'm on Vodafone UK and there is no restrictions on sharing data.

Hello , I have exactly the same issue with a Huawei Smart P. As soon as I turn on hotspot mode, the data connection stops and vice versa.
I thought it might be a carrier restriction, so I tried the SIM in a portable hotspot. It works, so it' s not that.

Bump. Same issue here. I have a Honor 9, Android 8.0.0. If I activate tethering, be it USB or Hotspot, the connection works only on the devices connected to the phone, while I can't use data on the phone itself. As soon as I turn tethering off, it works on the phone again...
Any help appreciated!
