No one is bothering to work on an alpha build. Nothing will be done until the OS is released in 7 months or so. This is not meant to be a daily driver.
This is why developers get so upset when these builds are published to normal people.

I haven't installed N yet, but this build prop editor that I have used before was just updated with N support.

well to be fair, google is using the phrase "android beta", and making this open as an OTA for a reason. From my usage so far, the N beta seems very daily driver friendly, friendlier than L, M previews were the past two years.
i think these "Devs" you speak of can probably calm their testicles... Unless i'm mistaken, this community is for everyone, regardless of what the website name is.
I'm not here asking for Johnny hacker codemaster extraordinaire to fire up some chillstep and fix this for me. I'm simply posing a question to the community. Perhaps a lowly peasant Joe shmoe has come across something, and would see my post and share.

appreciate the response. Unfortunately, the method i use is via custom recovery with adb, and no luck. I was able to successfully edit the build prop via this method, but the net.tethering.noprovisioning=true line no longer seems to have any effect like it did in Lollipop and Marshmallow.

Yes they did release it for a reason. So app developers have an idea of the changes coming. It is not meant as a daily driver.
You have no idea how people are laughing at requests like this.
No this Alpha build was just released yesterday and to be honest most people that could help with this are not even running it. Only people that dont know better are using it.
tethering works fine right out of the box on N, no need to unlock it. unless you are asking to tether "free" on your provider, then you have to just find your way for now.
This works I just tested it. Im on verizon udp. turn off wifi. First eject sim card (don't need to take it all the way out). turn on hotspot through settings not the quick tile. As soon as you toggle the hotspot on push the sim card back in.

Google made this available as an OTA via the beta program so that even non super elite devs can check it out. Yes it's not meant for daily use, that part is clear on the beta page; yell down from your high horse when you have some inside info that the general public is not aware of.
Once again, this post is CLEARLY NOT a "request" like you're going on about. As an android enthusiast, i'm here discussing the next version of android with other enthusiasts.

hmm, yeah tried this method as well. once the sim is back in, hotspot toggles back off, I'll have to fool with it some more.

Its different than with marshmellow. You need to toggle the hotspot and push the sim card back in at the same time.

Well as tethering is enabled by default then your question is answered. If you want to do it for free then that bypasses a paid service which would make it warez and banned from the site.
If you want to tether then pay for the option. Simple solution.

(2) GSM, 3G working (set your own carrier APN)
(3) No sound
(4) Only volume down key and power off key working
(5) can not unlocked if the screen is locked for no "MENU" key is correctly mapped.

Install step:
1. format your microsd card to fat32 format, sd card should be larger than 280M
2. unzip the file to the root of the microsd card
3. run "Haret.exe" in win mobile version, waiting for 5 minutes, if will come to the Kawaii green robot.
So i might be mistaken but are you saying that data works? if so where can i get the apn for verizon
Verizon = CDMA
It looks like he said GSM/HSDPA is working. So for Verizon you are likely currently out of luck.
Theres little point, this has already beeen posted.
GSM is easily fixable, leave it to the devs.
Ive gotten the keyboard to work besides, 2.0.1 is more stable.

Agreed. I am waiting for some stable testing beds, but staying up to date on this many threads is ridiculous. Can the original poster from one of the threads get with a Mod and merge the threads or at least close any extra ones? That would be the easiest way to keep people from continuing to open repetitive threads.

This topic is for development of the Wifi apk for the vibrant. Please DO NOT discuss what wifi means to you or how excited you are about it. I am posting this in hopes that a developer can make this work.
Only comment here if you can contribute and make this work. (what i have provided is the extent of my knowledge)
The apk installs, loads, but will not connect. It gets stuck on 'enabling' and shreads the battery trying.
Perhaps the servers are just not up yet since this is so new..
UPDATE: According to TMo News, T-mobile has stated that they do not support wifi calling yet... so hopefully this app not working is just a result of no server support yet..

Took a look at it and so far its either missing a VPN module or its pointing at settings that we dont have. Right now its looping trying to connect to localhost.
This does ADB install fine, but it doesnt connect if you disable it and try to re-enable it.
Side effect, it was constantly looping trying to connect the service and wasnt very happy about uninstalling when I tried, wouldnt recommend anyone install it unless they have the settings or an idea where we can grab them from
Soon as I get the OTA ill scour for the settings. Soon as I have any updates to it ill tweet/post
Thanks Viral, scepterr says it needs a kernel module and we need source code for that
Why ADB...just hit install...running it on Froyo, I cant tell if its working or not because Tmobile DID fix my signal at my house LOL

According to TMO News, the wifi calling is not supported yet as stated by T-Mobile.
“Wi-Fi Calling and tethering Wi-Fi sharing are not currently supported on the T-Mobile G2. T-Mobile knows these features are important to consumers and we’re working to deliver them to G2 users in the future. We have nothing further to announce at this time.”
http://tinyurl.com/3yltw9a
This was one of my theories... that would be an easy and good answer for why it will not connect yet...
Looks like theres no luck on the g2 end either, its still missing some configuration or something.

Adding to think tank section of the bible for easy retrieval just in case the thread slows.
Something tells me TMo is going to wait, either for the release of the MyTouch HD or they'll release it on a bunch of phones all at once as a way to boost sales before Christmas.
Looks like G2 will have this app soon enough. I can't wait to have it on the vibrant.
http://www.tmonews.com/2010/11/t-mobile-g2-to-get-wi-fi-calling-update-starting-tomorrow/
The reason why this app isn't working is because you need a Wifi calling plan which tmobile is rolling out soon and it requires a data plan of 19.99 or higher which pretty much everyone has because the 200 mb plan has not rolled out yet.
Has anyone gotten the wifi calling G2 OTA update yet? Can you let us know if the wifi calling now works on the G2? Thanks.
Yes and it works awesome!

Thanks. So it looks like both now the G2 and myTouch 4G are up and running with wifi calling. They both have in common that they are running 2.2. So am I to assume that the apk app on both of them is the same and that it will also run on the Vibrant once it gets the 2.2 update?

Thats why this thread is directed at the developers. So they could answer as to wether they were willing or not. Payment is always an option that is not above me. If I had the coding ability to do something like this, I would not be asking for help on here.

previously the wifi calling was done through an app that was active. Now it seems like wifi calling is enabled through a system setting which mean it must be built into the framework at this point. some have been able to take the additional framework stuff and add it into international roms and then port the settings.apk that has the toggle over as well. so not sure if this will ever come to aosp.

Also, just don't. Don't start bounties, don't create pressure on a developer to do anything. If you want to see what is what, send them an email offering to pay them directly.

Sega is just a terrible Mobile company. They recently pulled many titles some of which still work even without updates on lolipop.
I heard the Company as a whole is focusing more on mobile but with moves like this how? Unless they will rely on the strength of a few key titles (like SonicRush) and say screw the rest

you must grant the my verizon app the permissions it asks for in order for it to recognize your phone, you can deny the location permission later. VVM is hit or miss, i had it working on 7.1 crdroid but had to try a few times for it to finally setup.

I have the same problem with My Verizon, but I can use VVM just fine. Verizon might have updated the app to insist that it only be accessed from the device it expects. These CM 14.1 based roms have a different fingerprint than the stock rom.
Also, I'm surprised that Verizon did anything after you told them you had flashed a custom rom. That's pretty much the biggest excuse they have to not help you at all.
