Need Wifi Direct to work - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
anybody found a ROM with working Wifi Direct feature or some other way how to get it work?
I need this for testing my app and this phone should support it but I am really tired by trying tens of ROMs...
Thank you!

Download ShareIt if you want transfer data over wifi

Cm 10.1?

I said I am developing an app using Wifi direct so I dont want to try any app...
Have already tried every single CM and there is not an option with Wifi direct. If I add permission xml file the wifi wont start.

Adding things to ROMs - how far can you go?

If I were to flash the Cyanogen ROM, could I add themes to it? If so, would it be only certain themes? Only themes that are compatible with that ROM?
Also, is there a WiFi tether app? I can't seem to figure it out. I see it in MoDaCos online kitchen, but nothing else.
Thanks!
You cannot flash any theme and expect everything to work well... you need a theme built for that ROM since each ROM is different... and you also have to take into consideration the version of the ROM... if the theme is not built for that version, you may lose some features...
And yes, CM does have both wired & wireless teather applications...
here is free wifi tether program.

if u rooted with cyanogenmod5.0 u should be able to tether with no app. just simply plug in usb and click setting>wirless and networks> check box for internet tethering. Works like a charm
Thanks! Great info.

[Q] Wifi Calling, How To Get???

hello, im using CM 6.1 RC1, is there a way to get the wifi calling feature on my HERO???
Is it an APK to download or is there another rom to have this feature even an older one?
Or is there any way to hack it to work on HTC HERO like this Nexus One Hack???
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=807116
AFAIK, wifi calling requires certain hardware which enables it, wifi calling is also knows as UMA which is hardware specific, and the hero does not have such hardware
as an option - you could use google voice and another provider to make voip calls over wifi.

What do you mean, video call?? you may use skype AFAIK
I've installed the apk from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=8593386#post8593386 on Villain 1.6.2 and get 'Invalid SIM' as expected as I'm not on T-Mobile US, can't change settings through the menus so stuck there.
There is also this http://help.orange.co.uk/orangeuk/support/personal/529673
But I haven't seen the app extracted anywhere yet. I use uma on my work BB all the time as the signal at home is crap, if this could be fixed for general andriod use it would be so useful.

[Q] ROM with full proxy support?

Does anyone know of any Galaxy S GT-I9000 ROM with full proxy support?
I've tried DocRom, which has proxy support that only works for the built-in browser and is enabled for both 3G and wifi.
I've also tried the beta Cyanogen ROM, which does appear to have prxy support, but still has issues (it's a beta, after all) and doesn't have Market included.
I've tried for hours trawling google and can't find anything. So, anyone any ideas?
Cheers.

I dont think any such rom is available. . . ryt now .. !! if you happen to find one do post the link .
Found an app on the market, ASProxy (alsubang.github.com/ASProxy/index.html), no reviews available, but claims to enable WiFi proxy support... I was desperate enough, so I decided to be the guinea pig and spend the cash ($3)... and it worked!!!
I think it must be the only solution - I've looked forever on the market and via google. I was expecting to need a new ROM for this feature, but a simple app sorted it out.

Seems to work for everything, at least on my Uni WiFi. There are some issues I don't really understand in the documentation, so some networks may have issues, but not mine.
I have come across a very minor problem. My WiFi connection isn't great and drops occassionally. After it reconnects I have to manually disable and re-enable the proxy service.
There's a free program you might want to try here before you shell out, sounds similar:

well, I thought, I'm not a developer, but cant' we do so:
from a stock 2.2 rom from p500 or e720(bcs treir hardware is almost identical to gt540) take the settings or drivers or kernel optimizations for tethering and port it to gt540's rom? correct me if wrong.
also i've read that people were trying to flash gt540 with p500 and e720 roms. but they got an error saying that it is wrong phone. cant somebody change the rom that it would recognize gt540?
just my noob thoughts...

Wifi tether
I don't know how to fix this error on CM7 or CM6 . But you can use this soft, it is made by Google :d
https://market.android.com/details?id=android.tether&feature=search_result
Whilst its not the built in app, the Wireless tether app by Muller Lemons and Buxton appears to work on Murik's ROM OK.
I also have installed the Open Garden Wifi hotspot app. That gives all the appearance of working but I can't get any data through it.
The former definitely works on the Vodafone network here in Greece. I imagine it will work with others. If not try the latter option - I cannot see any reason as to why its not working - in fact it thinks it is.
i want to use my data connection for my friends over wifi .... is this possible (they have also android so ad-hoc is not a good soloution for me )

[Q] (HELP) Cisco Jabber - Dialer Problem

Hi All.
I need some help.....
I've recently installed the new Cisco Jabber apk. I've added a custom Kernel with TUN enabled and I'm running VPNC widget to connect. Nearly everything works perfectly and I now get calls from my work desk phone directly on my DHD even when at home or out and about.
My one problem though is that when I try to make a call instead of being given the option to use Jabber (Dial from my Cisco Number) or my mobile network to make the call it defaults to the mobile network and of course doent work?
I've tried changing the settings over and over again but cant get it to work properly? I have tried 3 or 4 different Roms now thinking that it may have been a problem with one of them but still nothing works? I'm now pretty much convinced that its a Gingerbread problem but dont want to downgrade back to 2.2 until I've checked...
I have a friend that has Jabber installed on his Desire and it works perfectly.
Has anyone managed to get it working fully on their DHD??? If so can you post your Rom and Kernel details please???
Thanks
A gentle bump..... its been weeks and I'm still no further forward. Have tried several 2.3 Roms but still not been able to get it working properly? Has anyone else had any better luck than me?
Any chance I can get the default Cisco Jabber APK from you? I'd like to try it on my G-Slate.

I had the same issue, I downloaded an alternative Dialer e.g. Dialer one, and since then it is working perferctly.
