Couldn't get it to work on SGS2 and WinXP

Used DooMLoRD's Easy Rooting Toolkit [v3.0](zergRush Exploit):

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1321582

for rooting my phone (SGS2). Then I followed this guide to the letter, but couldn't browse from the phone with either stock browser or Opera. My PC is WinXP.

I could ping the phone from the PC and vice versa.

Is there anything else I need to check? Do I need to bridge my PC LAN and Android connection on my PC?

Can you help me make it work in my case? Any other su commands I can use? Does it require a bridge? I notice that the commands in this guide are a bit different from those on this site :

The link you gave has few commands than here. The commands are the same, just fewer.

And no bridging is required. It works by sharing your broadband connection with the phone LAN connection.

Anyway here are two slightly different shell scripts which worked for me. Hopefully they work for you too.

USB-Drivers

Sorry. For a long break..

I found a way for those facing a problem with drivers..
You can download all the drivers you require for Windows XP / VISTA / 7 from HERE.

I will try and upload the method for using these drivers as soon as possible..

If you know how do it, Then

tetherxp.inf - is for Windows XP (Don't know whether it works with lower versions?)
wceisvista.inf - is for Windows Vista & 7 (All Service Packs I hope)

I tried it on CM7 & Nightlies(2.3.7). It works Fine

If anyone is using a Froyo Rom with SENSE, then you must have a SIM Card inserted or you won't get USB tethering option on your phone.

Thanks for all your support..

Currently working on HTC's Internet Pass-Through Mechanism.. Surely will try to bring Android Market to work as soon as possible.

You may try Internet Pass-Through on SenseOnFire v0.4bhttp://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1269485http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1269485

OK, so are commands on that link I gave enough?



Thank you for the scripts, but how do I invoke them from the terminal app?

I don't know about them being enough. The OP would be better off answering that question.

You can download an app called script manager from the market which runs sh scripts.

To run it via terminal emulator
su
cd sdcard
bash teth.sh


Assuming teth.sh is the filename and it's located in sdcard directory.

    HOW TO REVERSE TETHER YOUR PHONE / INTERNET PASS THROUGH​


    Reverse Tethering / Internet Pass through is the method in which you can make your android phone use the internet connection of your computer without a WIFI and by using a usb cable. It is helpful for those people who don’t have a WIFI at their place and for those who don’t have a good internet plan for their mobile.

    BASIC REQUIREMENTS​

    • Rooted Phone With S-OFF
    • SuperUser [QR Code]
    • BusyBox [QR Code]
    • Terminal Emulator [QR Code]
    • Windows O.S. [I am using Win-7]
    • USB Cable for your phone

    THE PROCESS​


    Connect Your Android Phone to your PC. Make sure you are rooted and have terminal emulator installed. Turn on USB Tethering from

    SETTINGS -> WIRELESS AND NETWOKRS -> TETHERING AND PORTABLE HOTSPOT -> USB TETHERING.

    Screen


    Next you will get a new connection in your PC. Open Networking and Sharing Center from
    CONTROL PANEL -> NETWORK AND SHARING CENTER

    You get a scene in a similar manner.
    Screen

    Now There will be one connection which will be your Main Net Connection and the Other one will be your Android Phone’s Created Connection for tethering. Click on your main net connection i.e. the one you use for Connecting to net Local Area Connection(in my case).
    You will get the following screen.

    Screen

    Now click on Properties.After this click on sharing and tick on Allow other network users to connect through this computer’s internet connection and click ok for any dialog box shown and click ok to come back to the main networking screen.
    Screen

    Now click on the new connection made by the android phone Local Area Connection 2 (in my case)
    You will get the following screen

    Screen

    Click on properties. Then go to Internet Protocol version 4(TCP/IPv4) and click on properties.
    Screen

    Now You need to enter 192.168.2.1 in IP address and enter 255.255.255.0 in Subnet mask and keep remaining things empty.
    Screen

    PART ON THE PHONE​

    NOTE:- ALL CODES HAVE TO BE WRITTEN WITHOUT QUOTES

    Open Android Terminal on the Phone and type "su". Provide it superuser permissions.
    Screen

    Now type “ifconfig usb0 192.168.2.2 netmask 255.255.255.0”
    Screen

    “busybox route delete default”
    Screen

    You may get an error here but it does not matter.

    Now type “iptables –F –t nat”(* -F in caps is must)

    Then type “busybox route add default gw 192.168.2.1”

    Screen

    “setprop net.dns1 8.8.8.8”
    Next (setprop “net.gprs.http-proxy” “” ) [*Note :- here the code is written in bracket to avoid confusion.. The quotes(“”) are required.

    Screen

    CONGRATS.... YOU ARE DONE!!

    RESULTS​


    • Works on Android Browser.(FOR ME)
    • Works on Opera & Opera Mini.
    • Works on XDA Premium App.
    • DOES NOT Work on Android Market.(Finding a Solution... if anyone gets it working please tell)
    • You may need to repeat this process each time you connect the phone to PC.
    • Works even without a SIM inserted.

    Nice guide
    To enable the market click settings under the sharing tab and add a new service called market with the port number 5228.
