[Q] 802.1x Enterprise with PEAP GTC wireless connection problem - Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi everybody.
I just bought a desire hd. i can connect every wireless connection WEP, WPA, WPA2 etc. but i can not connect 802.1x Enterprise with peap gtc network
My friend has a Galaxy Ace he can connect same with 802.1x peap gtc network. his firmware also Android 2.2
I'm configuring same as he did but still can not connect it.
I don't know what is my Desire HDs problem?
can anybody help me?

I solved my problem
t is very sad that WPA2-Enterprise is not available to be configured in the WIFI-Settings dialog. But if you know how to configure it by hand you can get it to work. I want to use my schools WPA2-Enterprise so I tried it and found out how to get it working. I will explain my taken steps below so you can as well get it to work. The trick behind is that you edit the /data/misc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf by hand. In that file the configuration of the wifi-networks is saved. You need to add the following lines: (in my example for the HSR-Secure network)
network={
ssid="HSR-Secure"
key_mgmt=WPA-EAP
identity="<username without 'hsr\'>"
password="<your password>"
}
For those who don’t know how to do that here some more explanation. To edit the mentioned file above your phone has to be rooted. Than you need the Android SDK installed on your computer (we will need adb.exe). You need the usb cable to connect the phone to your computer. Open a command line shell and go to your android-sdk tools folder and then do the following (thanks to Thomas Kälin for this easier version):
# Copy the config file from the phone to your computer:
adb pull /data/misc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf C:/MyFolder
# Now Edit your wpa_supplicant.conf with your favorite editor and load it back to your phone:
adb push C:/MyFolder/wpa_supplicant.conf /data/misc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf
Now go to the wifi settings in your phone. Turn wifi off and on again. It should successfully connect now. Here some pictures to show how it should look like when working.

I hope this helps some of you to get WPA2-Enterprise working.
Have fun surfing the internet with your phone at work/school .

How to get internet on your phone via USB

You may also call this reversed USB tether.
This might come in handy if you're near a computer (Win XP/Win7) and there's no Wifi to connect to etc..
So after some research and trying I've found some information on how to do this.
Requirements:
* Android 2.2 (or an older version with a root tethering app)
* ADB from Android SDK, or a rooted Android 2.2 with terminal in root mode
STEP 1:
Install USB drivers from Android SDK.
STEP 2:
Connect USB cable and activate USB Tethering.
You should see a new network interface. (On XP you might need to install the RNDIS driver manually, see below)
If you're also missing RNDIS driver on Win7, look here.
Win XP manual driver install Android USB Ethernet/RNDIS: (You can skip this if you're on Win 7)
1. Download the following configuration file inside the *.zip attached to this post (tetherxp.inf) to your Windows XP computer.
2. Use the USB cable that came with your phone to connect your phone to your computer.
3. On the Android phone, press Home > Menu > Settings to open the Settings application.
4. Press Wireless & networks > Tethering & portable hotspot.
5. Check USB tethering.
6. When Windows XP’s New Hardware Wizard opens, select No, not at this time and click Next.
7. Select Install from a list or specific location and click Next.
8. Click Browse to browse to the directory where you installed the configuration file you downloaded in Step 1 and click Next. Windows XP uses the configuration file to configure itself to support USB tethering with the Android phone. (This might take a while)
9. When Windows XP finishes installing the software for Android USB Ethernet/RNDIS, click Finish.
STEP 3:
Bridge the 2 network interfaces.
STEP 4:
Setup usb0 interface of your phone. You have to options:
1. From your computer, execute:
./adb shell netcfg usb0 dhcp
2. Or in a root terminal on your phone, type:
su
netcfg usb0 dhcp
You should now be able to connect to Internet on your phone using your computer's Internet connection.
Try to do a ping www.google.com to be sure.
STEP 5:
To shut down the reverse-tethering, first unbridge interfaces on your computer:
sudo ifconfig eth0 down
sudo ifconfig usb0 down
sudo ifconfig br0 down
sudo brctl delbr br0
sudo ifconfig eth0 up
sudo dhclient eth0
Then on your phone, uncheck the USB Tethering option.
Quote...
It is working now. After setting up ICS type in console emulator on your phone:
ifconfig usb1 192.168.2.2 netmask 255.255.255.0 up
route add default gw 192.168.2.1 dev usb0
iptables -F
iptables -F -t nat
setprop net.dns1 8.8.8.8
setprop "net.gprs.http-proxy" ""

Click to collapse
Hope this helps some one who wants this to the right direction.
And maybe we're able to create an app to do this all automated.
Known issues but does not apply to all users:
1. Internet in browser application does not work.
2. Can't ping domain name.
For a little more info check out the sources, this includes the Linux version too.

Nice info
Going to post a link on the hero forum where someone was wanting to do this. I wonder if this will work on a froyo hero too...
it would be cool if one of the devs could write a small app to switch this on n off great find tho shoemeistah
Thank you for the guide, It worked fine. There are several things not working though:
- can't download apps from market, they stuck on "downloading"
- my google account don't sync
- other apps don't update themselves. For example my twitter app won't show any new tweets until I open it and manually press "refresh"
I searched for this long time ago, even created a thread about it awhile back, didnt have luck like you did though
I gave up on it eventually, it would be nice to make an app out of it.
mind asking how did you confirm the net to be working on browser? by pinging google.com?
since i saw the last line you put "Internet in browser application does not work."
You can do that in the terminal
[U][B] Internet connection on your Android phone via your PC [/B][/U]
I think I found the best solution. Check it out connectify.me
I wanted to use my PC wired internet & I was astonished that this wasn't available in my HTC Desire & 1st Android device!. I looked over the net, I found many options but most asked for a rooted device! I didn't want to root my brand new Desire.
Connectify is an easy to use software router for Windows 7 computers. After downloading and installing the lightweight application, Connectify utilizes your computers' built in Wi-Fi card to wirelessly share any available Internet connection: a cable modem, a cellular card, or even another Wi-Fi network. Other Wi-Fi enabled devices including laptops, smart phones, music players, and gaming systems can see and join your Connectify hotspot just like any other Wi-Fi access point and are kept safe and secure by password-protected WPA2 Encryption.
I tried it & it's working perfectly for me .. It's a free app.
-----------
Phone: HTC Desire (SIM Free)
Type: Desire
Build: HTC Desire 2.2, 2.10 (kernel: htc 2.6.32.15)
Baseband: 5.09.05.30
Network: UMTS auto (EGY)
By me it didn't work. Using OpenDesire with Froyo 2.2
So I made it work, by edititng the .inf file.
Here the file for USB\VID_0BB4&PID_0C02.
For all which still have a problem(USB TETHERING ON DEVICE MUST BE ACTIVE, ALSO THE IDs DIFFERS BETWEEN CONNECTED WITH ADB OR NOT), go into the device manager -> open the device -> goto tab details -> choose device id
look at it, you see somewhere vid_XXXX and further pid_XXXX
open my file -> goto line 31 -> change vid_YYYY and pid_YYYY with what you see in your device dialog. the same you do on line 35. be careful with 0 or o.
Regards
Ralph
I am also using connectify, easy to install, set it up, connect with Desire, anything works fine.
Thanks GhostOfTheNet.

[Q] How to browse VPN files

I need help viewing my shared files over my VPN.
OK so I have setup a VPN on my Win7 machine, port forwarded pptp in my router and have successfuly added the VPN on my DHD. The Android device connects OK (something has popped up in Win7 about RAS (Dial In) Interface, not too sure about this) but I cannot seem to view any of my shares in ES File Explorer under LAN.
I have added a new server (while connected to VPN) in ES File Explorer using the IP of my Win7 wireless network connection (192.168.0.103) but it wont display anything.
server: 192.168.0.103
Username: username
Password: *******
Each tme I try to connect it says:
"smb://192.168.0.103/
Network path not found or time out"
Anybody got any ideas on how to get this working?

Just one "f" - you can find it in the market by searching for CifsManager or just Cifs.
Note that you will need to have the correct kernel modules (i.e. slow-work.ko and cifs.ko) for your kernel inserted (i.e. loaded, on your rooted phone) for CifsManager to work.

what's wifi adhoc for sir? is this for file sharing via wifi?
ad hoc?
if you have a laptop or a PC with wifi and already connected to internet, you can make an adhoc connection to share your internet connection with others. in normal situation we can't detect adhoc connection with our device. with this simple mod we can detect and connect to any unsecured adhoc connection.

I use connectify to share internet pc with wifi to my device..
Are this same purpose with different method???
yup...it has same purpose but different method.

I already tried this but didn't work
pand gave some error "Failed to open control socket: Address family not supported.........."
then I thought this error may be due to lack of bluetooth module.so I compiled "bluetooth.ko" and loaded.
then the error disappeared but the thing didn't worked..
I think my bluetooth device is not detected by the module because '/sys/class/bluetooth' directory was empty
So still now i am seeking for a solution....

Well it actually is not impossible. I already had it working.
But your phone shouldn't have any issues with BLUETOOTH PAN profile. If having any issues maybe don't expect this to work. And it need not have mobile internet for both phone or PC. Its just phone-to-pc direct connection, no need for internet access point. Lets think there is no mobile internet enabled for the below HOW-to.
Ok here u go. Pair your phone and PC. Initiate BT PAN connection from PC to phone (right click on bluetooth device and select connect-via-access-point). This creates a local connection. Now u need to know local IP address on phone side. Install terminal emulator application and issue the command "netcfg" which lists all connections active. Note the IP address of the connection bnep0 (say ww.xx.yy.zz)
Now open your PC Command prompt and type the command
adb connect ww.xx.yy.zz:5555
it says connected. Enjoy.
Same goes for wireless connection through LOCAL WIFI (WLAN) without internet access point.
Lets think mobile internet is off.
Turn on the portable Wifi Hotspot on the android device and make ur PC to connect to that hotspot. Note down the local ip address of the connection. Then open pc command prompt and type same command as above
adb connect ww.xx.yy.zz:5555
connected . enjoy.
IMPORTANT: First of all u need to enable ADB OVER NETWORK option in phone. This option is present in latest roms like cm7.2 or cm9 or ics roms. If this option is not available u need to find terminal alternatives for this.
Noob here.
Is there any detail guide to do this ???

Connectify works well for me over wi-fi, as I understand, you are trying to reverse-tether over usb? port 2020 is not a problem since you will be using 8090 and 8080. You need to have an active and working adb (enable adb on your device and connect it to the pc, open cmd and run [adb devices], see if it turns up or not. If it does then it should not be a problem getting this to work according to the guide.
