I know it's not supported now, but does anyone know if it will be in the future.
Just got the phone and loving it, except for the not being able to add wireless profiles.
hope so, also manual dns settings
It doesn't sound very positive, I've read several MS blogs where they claim they are doing this for "our" safety and that nobody should be using hidden SSID's.
I can't tell you how many enterprise companies hide their wireless networks. I hope MS gets their head out of their A**
Hidden WiFi App on the Marketplace..
Hidden Wifi app in the market place:
I got it installed, but there is an error as you can see below:
The problem with the app I am having is that it tells me:
This application requires the latest Wi-Fi software. Please update your phone to the latest system software.
I am currently on No-do, so I don't know what else to do.

yes i have nodo
This is strange I see it happening with other people.
I went and removed my wireless connection, I thought my phone could be stuck on WiFi configuration, reconnected again, and its still working, no idea why its happening with you guys, my HD7 is unbranded, maybe this is the reason.
Also I thought of posting my Phone info, I've been seeing different versions with other people, maybe there is a different version between mine and yours.
BTW I have NoDo installed from Zune, and I didn't get the HTC update.

You have newer Firmware and Radio software than me and I have Nodo installed:
Yours :
Firmware revision number: 2250.09.16901.401
Radio software version: 5.54.09.21_22.33b.50.10U
Mine:
Firmware revision number: 2250.09.12001.531
Radio software version: 5.51.09.11a_22.31.50.09U
So this might be a big part of the problem.
I'm having the same problem where it tells me I need to update my wi-fi software but I'm using a HD7 with NoDo, very frustrating.
Cannot find the app in marketplace, is it only released in USA?
Hey guys, i'm receiving official firmware update(i think because it's called samsung update) via zune just right now. I didn't even expect it!
updating................
Uploaded with ImageShack.us
you are on Mango relase, correct? .... maybe InternetSharing update
Normaly before ZUNE install the update, the make a Backup to restore the pre relase.
If yo unsure, try this backup solution here
[APP] simply 100% BACKUP your phone - to 100% RESTORE over ZUNE
and try this update ......
finished, rebooted, then downloading another update, when rebooted the 1st time remained at least 2 minutes stuck at samsung omnia7 boot logo, if you are scared go have a walk in other rooms of your house, do your bed, clean up the mess, it worked for me

very confused over this update practice
I have ever thought a un-braded ROM are the better choice ....
My Omnia 7 is a t-mobile "light" branded device. before come the officially MANGO i have it flash it with a un-branded ROM. But it had a older firmware + no InternetSharing.
so i have few weeks ago my device flash with the t-mobile ROM. I`M now pleased with it and happy over the InternetSharing function ...
I have few WiFi only (tablet) devices and wouldn be without this great future .......
yes the T-mobile ROM KH2 posted on mobiletechworld will persuade Zune to upgrade it to
radio 242.11.9.1
firm 242.11.9.4
bootloader 5.9.3.0
internet sharing & compass works perfectly now !
I had issues with the Data connection on Orange UK , but used the Samsung app "network profiles" to switch from T-mob de and it's all good.
I think the reason that the non-branded ones are lacking is, that not all carriers want internet sharing enabled.. so the generic one doesn't get it.. also I suppose the cost of testing it has to be paid by someone.. T mobile in this case

hi , i have the same relase as you, but i have no good working compass
which compass you use?
cheers, miro
my version with diagnosis now:
PDA: I8700XXKI2
Phone: I8700XXKI1
CSC: I8700ITVKI2
and btw if you really need internet sharing you could enable it using diagnosis on a unbranded phone
just follow this guide on mobiletechworld and keep in mind you have to revert to zune sync when you want to use zune again
thanks
Just recieved these updates too, no Interner Sharing either.
In fact I see no difference other than build numbers?

I am wondering why my phone version is ki1 and not ki2 could someone enlighten me, please?
Hmm well, my Omnia 7 differs from all of yours.
Seems like you are struck without Internet Sharing and on Mango 7720.
Ever though about flashing the firmware to a newer version? Or using a ROM from another carrier?
Mine is a Omnia 7 with T-Mobile Germany Branding and I had received Internet Sharing together with Mango 15 days ago.
I even received a few hours ago another new update, which changed the OS version to Mango 7.10.7740.16.
I already announced it on forums here (screenshot and version numbers there):
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1349495
the thread title is "omnia7 no brand no logo firmware update" how did u understand your t-mobile germany omnia7 is different from ours???
thank you for the completely off topic post, we are able to read the forum I think
I successfully set up connection from my laptop with my unbranded omnia7 and found a little error on mobiletechworld guide using it
so here's step by step for my case: samsung gt-i8700 and wind ITA carrier with windows7 home premium x64
phone version:
PDA: I8700XXKI2
PHONE: I8700XXKI1
CSC: I8700ITVKI2
1:dial ##634# and press call to enable diagnosis menu
2: in diagnosis menu dial*#7284# and select the middle option: Modem, Tethered Call, and reboot phone as asked
3: Download and install http://www.multiupload.com/GH391NDSY1 and don't mind the Verizon branding on install wizard
4: connect the phone with usb cable to the laptop and wait for driver install, and check in device manager; you should see Samsung mobile modem
Uploaded with ImageShack.us
you could also double click and go in properties --> diagnostics --> and press query modem to se if replies correctly
5: now go to http://www.2shared.com/file/_Ty7WFZ7/WINDEasyConnect_20100111.html and download wind easy connect and install; be sure to not select any drivers during installation
6:wind easy connect then will detect the omnia7 and asks if he should use it, say yes and voilà, you can now use the auto-configurable dialer to connect with omnia7 and surf happily
Uploaded with ImageShack.us
be sure to check if you have a data plan that permits the use of cell phone as a modem(i asked call center) i'm not responsible if you don't check and have then to pay a lot of phone bill
and remember that omnia7 is not officially supported by wind ita

Just received the update. Developer unlocked, unbranded Omnia 7. No internet tethering :-?? I don't see any improvements either.
i noticed that battery now lasts longer, and phone seems smoother and quicker, not bad!!
Ok, so I work for this company that is mass selling these DS7... We have all types of the models come in, and I'm trying to figure out which ones can be upgraded to Honeycomb 3.2...
I know that the WiFi unbranded model can receive the OTA update, but the T-mobile WiFi is unable to receive it.
As far as I can tell none of the 3G models can receive the Honeycomb update. I have been reading around these forums today, and found out that (correct me if I'm wrong) carrier unlocked 3G models can be get the OTA Honeycomb update.
I have been looking at this software to carrier unlock the DS7 (Dell Streak Unlocker ), but don't know if it a one-time-use device specific unlock, or if I could use it to unlock many devices.
I know there is a lot of information provided here hidden in these forums, but I am at work, and I cannot spend all day looking for answers. If someone could just help me out I would greatly appreciate it.
If you're running into multiple S7's, could you report what roms are installed on them?
To find your rom version:
Go to settings -> about tablet
List the following:
OEM Version: GLUNB1Axyyyzz
X is your hardware model:
(note that this isnt consistant below 340)
1: US 4g
2: EU 3g
3: Wifi
yyy is your rom version
zz is your region
Build number:
Baseband ver:
(if applicable)
Dell Streak 7 Official roms - XDA wiki
Dell Update Process - XDA wiki
You're likely going to run into a couple that I dont already know about,
I would like to ask if you could make nvflash dumps of them, but I'll settle for just rom info if you can do that much.
General breakdown:
From a hardware perspective: all S7's can be upgraded, they're all more or less identical internally (bar the modems)
From a software perspective, Tmo ones and wifi ones below 340 cannot be officially updated.
The unlocker software likely is one time use/per code.
I cant say it actually is because I've never tried, but it strongly sounds like it would be.
First of series
I don't know how to perform a nvflash dump, but I can provide the system information. I will be posting different systems as I come across them. If there is a guide that you can point me to that shows how to get the nvflash dump I would be happy to gather that data for ya.

Happy New Year folks.
I just ported my brother's AT&T number to a Simple Mobile account and I'm getting a SIM error notification icon on the top.
I don't get a window prompt of the SIM itself, I just recognize it from previous experiences.
Considered the following, but nothing worked:
- Manually adding the APN for Simple AND T-Mobile.
- Manually selecting another network operator.
- Tried reinserting the old AT&T SIM, the notification is gone of course, but I can't do anything that utilizes phone service because it's terminated.
- Searching around the rumors for a specific solution; found nothing relevant.
- Obtained an unlock code, but I can't access anything to input the code (even 2945#*925#, but I get mobile network not available),
- My IMEI is recognized by the Android OS, so I don't think I'm encountering any issues there.
Here's some info on the handset:
Baseband info: LG925AT-01-V10e-310-410-AUG-10-2011+0
Android Version: 2.3.7
Kernel: Version 2.6.35.7-cyanogenmod [email protected]) )
Mod Version: CyanogenMod-7-20121202-NIGHTLY-p925
Apologies if this has already been answered.
Any guidance would be infinitely appreciated.
FYI: Just made a back up and flashed with the latest barebone CM7 ROM.
No luck, same results.
Figured it out.
I flashed a stock ROM (rooted but I don't think it was relevant) and unlocked the phone from there via the dialer app.
I bought a used Note 5 64GB yesterday. I put my 7-11 Speakout sim into it, and it worked great. I also tried a Wind Mobile sim and that worked well too. After I got the device home I noticed that there was a software update for it, however, I couldn't install the update due to "unauthorized software having been detected". The error message suggested I use SmartSwitch. I proceeded to download SmartSwitch, and once I installed it and plugged in my device it began updating. Unfortunately, once the update was complete my device's phone could no longer be used, "Could not connect to requested network..". When I manually search for mobile networks I can find WIND/Bell/Rogers and Speakout but, like I mentioned, I can't connect to them.
Any idea what I've done wrong? I've tried flashing the device a number of times now (custom roms + stock roms) and I can't seem to get the mobile functionality working again. I have tried a Bell / Rogers / Wind and a Speakout sim card and all result in the same thing.
Any help you could offer would be greatly appreciated!

I'm not sure if you are having a similar problem to the one I describe here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=64872537&postcount=22
so far no solution has been offered. I've contacted Bell via their 'escalation' request.... silence
It seems like the software upgrade to 'N920W8VLU2AOK5' has caused mobile connection issues for some Note 5 users.
I will let you know if / when anything happens
