Hi, i am new here and have a question.
Is it possible to use the fairphone to connect to an wifi adhoc? I found some websites offering a file called wpa_supplicant, with what i should replace the original one. But with this i cannot activate wifi at all. May there be another solution? For I use a fairphone i have root rights, a terminal and busybox installed...

when i replace wpa_supplicant, wifi seems doesnt work, i cant find any wifi network (ap or ad-hoc)
please help
I tried creating ad hoc wifi network in my laptop for my defy but failed. The phone did not detect the network. Then I installed connectify instead and it works faultlessly.
Is there any adhoc patch for defy?
*wrong post deleted*
I can connect defy with my laptop without installing any other software. But I'm not sure if it is a ad-hoc network. My laptop wifi driver provide a special ap mode and it can be used to share network.

Same here. I tried all the patches of wpa_supplicant given in this thread as well: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=755254 but the wifi just can't search for any network and it turns off itself.
Another member "webvan" tried the above steps on his Milestone and failed(from the above thread).
Seems like Moto has a different hardware config.
FYI, I'm running 2.2.2 custom rom (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1037076)
What a tragedy.
It seems there's no such patch for Defy.
for me it worked with 3.4.2_177-005_NORDIC rom which i used for a very long time.
the problem is, you must manually connect to an ad-hoc network.
if you don't want to do that each time, you can install cyanogenmod by quarx and it will automatically connect to your saved ad-hoc network
Maybe you should try update to 2.2/2.3 based rom.
Fyi, i'm now at MIUI rom & got no problems with ad-hoc wifi network.
Dont forget to activate Internet Connection Sharing (for windows user), just to assure your device got IP Address automatically.
P.S Sorry for my bad english
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 .

Adding the password line worked perfectly.
Attached you will find an Excel file with 1,194 different connection settings for internet access and MMS. These settings are needed when you install custom ROMS, screw around with your phone and forget what you changed , use certain SIM unlock services, or when you have your phone tethered to your computer via USB. For example you need this for my tutorial on how to tether with the Dell Venue Pro entitled "Mango USB Tethering - Confirmed Working". This is why I have placed this in the hacking section instead of general.

Cheers!
I guess this isn't as popular since most people can tether via WiFi now
Thanks, helped me setup data for some Canadian providers.
So, here it goes.
My goal is to connect to a network using certain MAC address. Wanted network is marked with "open" and I know that it allows access only to certain devices (according to MAC) on which the administrator have gave a permission to. Once your MAC passes the verification, device gets connected to the network and then I'm asked to enter username and password through WEB browser (well known for me, because it is a procedure that I do on my other device, as well as all my colleagues do).
For example, I was allowed to provide one personal MAC address to administrator to connect to this network. I would like to set the MAC address of my other personal device and set it on my I9195 so that I can access the same network.
So, what have I done so far: I9195 is rooted, it has Android 4.2.2 on it and Busybox installed. I have changed MAC on it using following apps: MacChanger (blue WIFI logo), MAC Address Ghost (green ghost logo), using Android Terminal Emulator commands and via MAC Spoofer (black circle with green text logo). What can I conclude: As soon as superuser has granted the access to these apps, all of them manage to change the MAC. I've done the verification using Terminal Emulator. I also have to add that the MAC remains original if viewed from WIFI advanced menu BUT this shouldn't be an issue because:
1.) Colleague of mine is using his S4 (rooted etc.), while using MAC Address Ghost that does not change the original address (viewed from WIFI advanced menu) but he manages to make a spoof (verified from the Android Terminal Emulator, as all of this apps actually do) and he manages to connect without any problems in the same way as I connect with another device that I have!
2.) I had time to make a small test at home which put a light on the idea that the problem should be focused on the Samsung (and not on the router, especially because I am unable to modify anything on the router on this facility, not even restarting it). My home network works in a similar way as the network that we are discussing about. My S4 Mini has been included in it with his original MAC and it connects to the network without any problems. My other device is also included to the network using its MAC (the one that I am using for spoofing). My other device is turned OFF, router has been reset and I am normally accessing the network with S4 Mini. Then I run the MAC Address Ghost to spoof the MAC on my S4 Mini. In that moment, I have lost the connection that I had which means that the MAC spoofer actually did something. I tried to reconnect to the network but then I am asked to enter the password for my network. I have checked and re-checked it many times, tried to forget the network and doing it all over again but it does not accept the CORRECT password. Changing my MAC back to the original one connects S4 Mini back to the network, while accepting the password immediately.
Problem is represented in a way that it either says “saved” and does not connect to the network or every few times displays a message “Authentication error occurred”.
I have tried I would say every possibility that I’ve seen over the internet. That includes:
1.) Installing WiFi Connection Manager (it provided some info regarding the network that I wish to connect to: IEEE 802.11g standard, 54 Mb link and CH:11). I’ve used its function to fix the WIFI (advanced fix (root required)) but it didn’t help.
2.) All sorts of staying close to the rooter, while enabling and disabling the Power save mode (accessed via *#0011# command) or while having GSM signal.
3.) Browsing through system, data etc. folders to try to find the file that contains the MAC address information (like it did on older android versions in the nvram file). I’ve been unable to find this file or any sort of file that displays my MAC for the purpose to modify it.
I have a plan to upgrade Android to version 4.4.2 later today and make a test.
Please, feel free to suggest anything else! If I do not succeed, I will have to replace my S4 Mini with something else.
Kind regards,
QUICK REPLY: After installing CyanoGEN MOD 4.4.2, the problem remains!
I think there could be a shorter solution! On Sony Xperia Acro S with 4.1.2 Android it was just a matter of changing the MAC address within the file data/etc/wifi/fw! One minute modification...
So, please, if somebody knows the path to the file that contains MAC on CyanoGEN MOD 4.4.2 or on Android 4.2.2, PLEASE HELP!
Kind regards!
Hi.
I'm looking for ways to reverse tethering with P6 non rooted. I found the link below, but I'm having difficulty in running the program. Can anyone help me, what should I put in the settings of the program? I'm also running AdBlock Plus for Android, whihc calls for local proxy 'localhost' and port 2020.

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.
