I'm a newbie here and need help adding the ad hoc connect option to my Galaxy tab. I've already installed z4root (it's complete) and I purchased Busybox from the market and installed. My issue - I have know ideal how to use Busybox to push or anything (I'm a first timer).
Also, prior to installing Busybox, I tried to copy and paste the wpa.supplicant file in the system/bin folder and only received errors. I have the Superuser and Root Explorer. I found the post with what appears to be instruction for Busybox. However, I don't have a clue to what it meant. I'm really green here - can someone provide the beginners version in using Busybox to setup the ad hoc?
Thanks,
I have a Sprint SGT. Since the OTA update to EA24 I have been unable to get AdHoc WiFi working again. I rerooted (using SuperOneClick) successfully and replaced wpa_supplicant again but no Ad Hoc servers are showing up. I am sure I am rooted (via RootCheck and the fact that I can use Wireless Tether for root users) but I still cannot see Ad Hoc Wifi servers. Anyone else in the same boat?

Wow man, thanks for the warning, I'm using my Galaxy Tab ad-hoc(ed) to my Xperia X10 using Wifi tether, since I use this for my college project you are a life saver.
Now, does anyone knows how to kick off the update alert? I'm kind of pissed of it showing every 10 minutes.
Its working!!
I was successful in getting the adhoc connection to work with my verizon galazy pad.........

What I did was go ahead and try to install the update. The update stops with an error on my tab because of my wpa suppliment. The update alert goes away. This works for me so use at your own caution.

This issue ever resolved?
Will this patch enable adhoc wifi on a Sprint Gtab running GB?
(yes)
Well I took the leap and did this wpa_supplicant patch on my Sprint Gtab running GB, and it WORKS. Very good, now I can do 3G via the WM Wifi Hotspot app. Presumably any adhoc wifi source will work now, like Windows Internet Sharing, etc.
okay after i came from hell and back to get my phone to update and rooted, I installed wifi tether and hacked the settings.db file and for some reason its not working this time. is there a way to wifi tether with .902 or is there an alternitive?
Not sure why you needed to make changes to settings.db. I grabbed the latest tether apk from here and, once rooted with the new method on .902, wifi tether just worked. No other changes were needed.
I just got my S5 with OF3 factory installed. I know there is no root as of now. Is there any way to enable native hotspot without root? That is really the only thing I miss from my rooted S4.
Curious to know, is it possible to force a stock rom to perform a system update over mobile data?
I converted my M7 to GPE stock, then tried to update the system software but it insists on doing so over wifi only and not mobile data. I have unlimited data (well more or less) and could easily download the system updates over mobile data, but it doesn't seem to allow me.
Can it be forced to use mobile data and not wifi?
Thanks,
Rooted and installed magisk on g6. Have been using WiFi tether router for many years on prior phones with superuser. Wifi tether seems to have issues with magisk. Does anyone know a wifi tether app for magisk and rooted g6?
Should I uninstall magisk and install SU to see if wifi tether will work? I'm a noob and prefer to not undo something that's working.
I tried the magisk tasker tethering module. The PC connected to the g6 but could not access the internet.
