[Q] Connect WildFire to AdHoc - can't find file : tiwlan.ini - Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
First I'd like to tell that i'm a newbie with Android's Phone, I had Windows Phone until now. I have some light Linux knowledges. So be gentle and easy with Android and Linux technical terms
So, here is my problem : I tried to connect to an Ad Hoc Wifi Network but it doesn't work. It seems to be a known issue for a long time in android community and some solutions exists.
One of these solutions I found is to edit the file : /system/etc/wifi/tiwlan.ini
and modify :
Code:
WiFiAdhoc = 1
dot11DesiredSSID = HTCG1Default
dot11DesiredBSSType = 0
So, I rooted my Phone (with SoftRoot), I used ADB, but the file tiwlan.ini don't seems to be present on my device in the folder it should be.
My questions are : Is it normal for Wildfire that this file is not here? Is the location of the file different on Wildfire ? Is there another solution for Wildfire to connect AdHoc Wlan?
Here are some informations on my device :
HTC Wildfire A3333
Firmware version : 2.1 update1
Baseband version : 13.45.55.24H_3.35.15.31
kernel version : 2.6.29-4266b2e1
htc-kernel and18-2 #1 (May 19 2010)
Build Number : 1.14.163.1 CL183733
Soft Number : 1.14.163.1
Browser version : WebKit 3.1
Thanks for interest you will give to my request.

The same happens to me.
Would appreciate a solution.
Thank You

I'm trying to do the same and I don't have this file. Anyone with a Wildfire succeded to connect to an ad hoc connection?
I don't really understand why Android shouldn't be able to connect to ad hoc connection. Are the developers dumb or what?

See this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=8201393&postcount=5
You will have to re-add "ap_scan=2" every now and then, Android stubbornly removes it.
Code:
echo "ap_scan=2" >> /data/misc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf
works fine for that purpose.

I've got a tablet branded "Goclever" (T70) with Android 2.2. Rooted it successfully. Tried to make it working in ad-hoc mode but there is no tiwlan.ini on my system (searched it throughout). Tried the method mentioned in the post above, but but no success.
Any ideas, pls ?
Piotr

Wildfire doesn't use tiwlan.ini. Only devices having a TI wifi chip uses it, and Wildfire has a BCM chip.

My device (Goclever T70) does not seem to use tiwlan.ini either.
What to do than? What changes to which config files should be applied in order to make adhoc wifi work?

[2010.2.4 New Testing Package] Online..

Time changes, and things go better and better.
This thread is dedicated to test the android and try to figure out where is the problem
[NEWS]
The NEW KERNEL ROCKS.. With double RAM.
And the new rootfs is cleaner than before.
I am going to release a new package (which I just did some small editing)
What can you do with this package?
Connect ADB (very important for debugging)
Put everything in a folder of your SDCard
Supply with NEW kernel and now you have more free RAM
Enjoy the cleaner rootfs (I have made some small modifications)
Download : http://www.mediafire.com/?1tbnyz2jmky
If any of you know how to enable chat in irc, please let me know.
BASICS:
Current Android boot from HARET which start from Windows Mobiles.
It consist of several components. Each of those is having unique functions.
1. STARTUP.TXT
Passing parameters to kernel which enable users to specify machine specific data
Current parameters including screen size, dpi, rotation, etc.
2. Kernel
The most important piece of code that enable everything to talk to the machine.
Developers here are most focus on this area as the other are greatly supported by google and other developers.
Kernel also determine what the hardware could do, and how it connects to other devices.
3. rootfs.img
This is the root of the linux, which initialize the OS. Especially running some startup scripts and mounting folder.
4. system.sqsf
The is the base Operating System of something call ANDROID. For others, you may considered them the basic environment of mobile Linux. For what we call CupCake / Donut / Eclair are stored here.
What we will be doing is to test out the features and bugs and locate the part of the about components affecting it.
Updated ADB howto:
Grab my base package.
Connect to computer before running Haret.
Wait until Android boot complete.
Install Google SDK USB drive for whatever device show up.
droid explorer or "adb device" to test.
If no device found, replug the usb cable.
This post would be updated with agenda drawing most concerns. We need your testing to see if you have any similar problems.
Agenda:
Top priority:
Device can't be wake.
Rear speaker always on.
This post would updates the testing items, and report the latest status.
Everything here are replaced with most recent findings and once more users confirmed, it moves up.
Do not believe everything in this post, but try falsify it. Reports in here would be presices to the level of component and versions.
So make sure you know what you are testing.
This post is a testing invitation, with trials and errors.
If someone raised an interesting phenomenon, we are going to invites members to test it. And the result format would be given as well.
This post may be changed from time to time to refect the new items needed to test (including the return format)
Now, let's kick start.
#1 To Test the base package in post 1
Return with following format.
Machine Type: BLAC100 (other devices are welcomed, but of course we are BLAC owners and would focus on it)
Test build: 2010.2.4
Radio: 1.17.25.09
WIFI ON: YES (WPA)
WIFI OFF: YES
Calendar / Gmail : BOTH OK
Google Voice: OK
Deep Sleep: YES (To test it, disable WIFI, Any USB, and press END KEY to sleep. If deep sleep is working, the system should not be up with key other than the power key)
Wake up: Crashed sometimes initially and get stablized later
ADB Connection: OK
Additional Package Installed: Facebook, dolphin
Suggestion: Replaced with kernel version xxxx would help to xxxxxxxxxxxxxx (if you found out how to make the build better)
#2 DEEP SLEEP AND WAKE
Please post your kernel version (or if you have no idea, the file name of the wifi module) if you found youself never had problem with sleep and wake (not yourself, but your blackstone android).
Lets begin this thread with a constructive approach to achieve our desired goal.
Will Post the feedback as requested.
Machine Type: BLAC100
Radio: Security unlocked 1.16.25.48 (Kovsky)
WIFI ON: YES (WPA)
WIFI OFF: YES
Calendar / Gmail : BOTH OK
Deep Sleep: YES but say after 10 minutes it wont wake-up.
Market: Working with downloads.
Additional Package: Facebook, Wifi toggle, Currency converter, Battery lite.

Thanks for your report. Developers is aware of the wake up issue of blackstone. It is however, seems still not fixed in the new kernel.
And Pierre-Hugues Husson would disable the deep sleep function (consume a little more battery) in up coming kernels, and we can try it on very soon.

Thanks for the update.
mcdull,
Brendan shanks has changed pid on kernel to "0c01", this should enable working with ADB without hacking the inf file.
This was deployed on Build: [email protected]_071547.
Let us know if this makes any difference for you, and whether HTC sync is now possible.
Thanks
It works perfect
hello,
I am using ANDROID_bLACKSTONE_TESTBUILD_20100125.ZIP & zImage-modules-20100129_022341 and it works perfect on my Blackstone till now.
Wi-Fi - OK
Synchronization with google account - OK
Sleep mode - OK
It is FAST
Call IN and OUT - OK
SMS - OK
this combination is best of the best till now what I tried.

AFAIK, HTC Sync will not work just yet. And I was not able to connect to ADB after the change. I need to test on some editing.
- Theory
As I already mentioned, the latest implementation of kernel prevent the proper installation of usb driver, and we need to fall back to old kernel to install the driver first (which the old kernel has 0c02 address).
Now, the modification has put the case into dead end. coz we can have no way to ask the computer to install a correct driver with 0c01 address.
In such case it is more difficult to modify the whole batch of driver setting then just the ini. I still have no go in using ADB.
The HTC Dream driver for windows seems works on ADB again.
As suggested by Brendan Shanks, you need to modify the "eclair.user.conf" (stored in the conf/ folder on your SD card), at the bottom, add this line to the custom_shells section:
echo 2 > /sys/devices/platform/msm_hsusb/usb_function_switch
And I have successfully to connect to ADB again.

Thanks for that. I will try also.
Today, I started seeing the traffic animating 3G icon for the first time.
Great.!!
ADB working
Thank's mcdull ,using the Brendan Shanks method , ADB is working very well.
I'm using the 29-01 kernel and i changed the eclair.user.conf.
After that , the Droid explorer works well .
Bluetooth and GPS , the last frontier.
Regards.

Bluetooth HID for MIUI

This guide is based heavily on the one found here: http://i-miss-erin.blogspot.com/2009/09/connect-bluetooth-keyboard-in-android.html
In fact, all information was gleaned from Erin's blog (super props to Erin). This guide is just slightly simplified, with a flashable zip instead of a few ADB steps/
Step 1.) Download the MIUI_Bluetooth_HID.zip from the Download page
Step 2.) Turn Bluetooth ON from Setting UI and click 'Scan for devices'
Step 3.) Select your bluetooth keyboard and pair it.
Step 4.) Under your keyboard android will state "Paired but not connected"
Step 5.) Open up a command prompt/terminal. I am working on a script to automate this part, but for now, you need to use ADB).
Note: Some of the following commands will output text.
adb shell
hcitool scan
(All bluetooth devices in range will be listed here. Look for your bluetooth keyboard, and copy down it's MAC Address)
hidd --connect xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx
(Replace xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx with your bluetooth keyboard's MAC Address)
hcitool con
(This command shows all connected HID devices, and should list the MAC Address of your bluetooth keyboard)
And that should be it - try typing and see if it works.
If anyone knows how to do the following in a bash script, I'd be grateful if you could tell me.
- Search for a text string in a text file, and replace it with a different text string.
The idea here:
- Script1 runs the scan
- The user copies down the keyboard's MAC Address
- The user enters the MAC Address and it is stored as a variable (is it possible for this to happen automatically?)
- The Script1 then duplicates a second script file called Script2
- The Script1 replaces a preset string (eg xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx) inside Script2 with the correct MAC Address of the bluetooth keyboard.
- Script1 runs Script2
- Script2 completes the HID control command
anyway, Thank Erin if it works for you - it worked for me.

Sense Integration
Can someone PLEASE integrate this into a Sense ROM? IE: Currently using PAYS 2.2...
I tried forcing the files in to /system/xbin but I get the following:
# hcitool scan
Device is not available: No such device
I just got an Rii mini BT Keyboard because it said it was Android compatible, but the drivers won't validate... apparently there's a licensing issue with the OEM or something (found this info on a Google search).
Can someone help?

hi
can u please help me to connect desire hd to rii mini blue tooth keyboard
it is detected but not pairing. Please help me
Hate to bump an old thread like this, but I've been trying to get this type of support on my phone and keep getting pointed to the Desire thread.
On that note, on the Download page the file we are told to download (MIUI_Bluetooth_HID.zip) isn't there. Any idea where it went?
Thanks!
any progress on this dude? i mean automating the connections?
I know this is a thread about HTC Desire, and I beg your apologies in advance for the intrusion, but...this solution is expected to work also in a Motorola Defy, or it will not work?
(just wondering if can be applies in other phones too...)

Overclock on Desire Z

Ive done everything possible but apparently my version is not the right one, Im on the Bell network and Im very excited about this. Any help whatsoever would be great. Thanks.
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA Premium App
If you are not running a T-Mobile G2 with HTC kernel 2.6.32.17, you MUST also give the kernel some other configuration options too! Pull the file /proc/kallsyms and search for the address values of acpu_freq_tbl and perflock_notifier_call. When loading the module, specify these addresses along with any other parameters: insmod vision_oc.ko acpu_freq_tbl_addr=0xc055e1a0 perflock_notifier_call_addr=0xc006c974
This is what I need to do but what does it mean?

Hello,
My name is Mirek and I am new here, that is my first post on that forum so if I write something wrong please forgive me and suggest me the right answear.
BACKGROUND:
I would like to overclock my HTC Desire Z also and I have made temproot (confirmed with the help of "Root Checker"), because I do not want to have a perm root or make complicated and risky (can brick the phone) downgrades of Android version and I do not want to loose my guarantee from the seller.
PROBLEMS:
(1.) Later on I have uploaded special scripts to my sd card and with the help of Gscript I have tried to use those scripts (I know there is also possibility to upload scripts to "/data/local/" without of Gscript app) but when I do that some error occure which says: "insmod: init_module '/data/local/vision_oc.ko' failed (Exec format error)".
(2.) From my later investigation and read post from different forums I know that is because file which I have uploaded to sd card "vision_oc.ko" has not actual addresses related to my current kernel version.
I have downloaded addresses from my Desire Z and I am enclosing that to this post (“kallsyms.zip”). I can find there address of “perflock_notifier_call”, but I can not find there „acpu_freq_tbl” address…
QUESTIONS:
(1.) Is it possible that the „acpu_freq_tbl” address is hiding on some another designation?
(2.) Maybe someone has already properly modified "vision_oc.ko" file for version of kernel "2.6.35.10-g7b95729" and can send me that so I can try?
(3.) I am enclosing to that post “kallsyms.zip” file with addresses from my Desire Z, maybe someone experienced can prepare new "vision_oc.ko" with the right addresses from the file which I enclose “kallsyms.zip” or at least can suggest how can I modify that "vision_oc.ko" by myself?
Can someone help me with that?
My kernel version is:
2.6.35.10-g7b95729
[email protected] #1
Android version:
2.3.3
Compilation no.:
2.42.405.2

Is wpa_supplicant related to the phone or to the OS ?

Hello everyone,
I am a NOOOB who read and saw the first video,
I have first used search function to find what I am looking for before posting
My question is :
I have overwritten my original wpa_supplicant by a new one that doens't work,
and YES I didn't backup before !
Since I want to retrieve the original one,
Do I Google such a file specific to my OS version : 2.3.4 ???
or to my phone : Xperia Play R800i ???
Thank you
Hello,
I finally figured out how to get around my wifi problem by myself :
Flashtool + new firmware + Root + New ROM
Everything works great now !
My question still stands though:
Does system files relate to the OS or to the Phone model ?
(just by curiosity)
Thank you
That is what i am also very intersted in as i need to find a WORKING wpa_supplicant to connect my Coby Kyros MID1125 (JB 4.1.1) to adhoc networks.

Seems like someone else had that problem too.... thought I read it in the reviews..
taulic,
please be so kind and remove the public access to the APK file.
The original package is fixed now.
Note that the program itself is free of cost but not free to copy. If people run into trouble I will provide older versions when asked.

Hi There,
The app works fine when I install it first, my dongle i being recognized no problem. However if I disconnect, and unplug the dongle and try to connect again, the widget shows "no modem found".
I have tried forcing the app to stop, uninstall stickmount as I thought there was clash between both apps and still it doesn't work. the only work around I v found is to re-install the app, which is not very convenient when on the go and needing internet in the first place to be able to access it.
Would you be willing to provide me the APK installer as I am quite happy to install the app whenever I need it, or maybe suggest a workaround?
you have done a fantastic job by the way
G
file is no longer available
Will you please re-upload the file (PPP wedget 1.00 APK) in drop box since the hyperlink says (The file you are looking for has been deleted or moved). Thank you very much
You should first, email the author of the app and see if he can help you with your problem.
I'm not sure I still have the app in backup... as I only save them for so long. (But I'll check).
For those people having problems with this app, there is a forum and active discussion

If you have older version of PPP Widget 1.00 (apk file), please post a link. I have tried many changer.bat options since your last post; both uberoid v11 and 12.1. Nothing seems to work so far to make the ZTE-MF190 work again since upgrade from stock ROM. Tried 2 look for this file however no success. Thank you.
