[MOD]CWM flashable zip to add Ad-hoc networks to Xoom

---

First off, a big thank you to everyone who helped me with this.

This is my first contribution to the dev community and I couldn't have done it without help.

Kelvie (Original)/Daveba (alternate)- for the actual wpa_supplicant file
BRD and BWCorvus- for the flashable template
kev0153- for a point in the right direction
And Amruthwo- for always helping push my limits and learn along the way.

For anyone who wants to connect their Xoom to an Ad-hoc network (such as many phones using wifi-tether) This will replace the wpa_supplicant file and fix permissions in one easy step.

*EDIT- I have included an alternate .zip file with a wpa_supplicant supplied by Daveba.
Both files are good and both are stable. The biggest difference between them is in the way they display the name of the ad-hoc network.
The original file shows the name with an asterisk next to it. {*AndroidTether}
The Alternate version shows the name with the words ad-hoc following it. {AndroidTether (adhoc)}
Other than that they are really quite slimier.

Instructions:
Copy zip file to your memory card.
Reboot into CWM recovery.
Select install zip from sdcard
Select choose zip from sdcard
Select Ad-hoc network flash-signed.zip
Confirm that yes you want to install it.
Let it run it's commands.
Reboot system and enjoy Ad-hoc networks!

Thanks again and have fun!

Hopefully this will help people out who were unable to use the other methods!

Good job señor wrong


Edit: Misspelled squeezey..if squeezey is a real word in the first place...

Works like a charm. Awesomeness.

I don't have any issues tethering my Xoom to my HTC Evo, isn't that considered an ad-hoc network?

Nope. The Evo uses infrastructural mode for tethering. It's cool. Before I found this fix I was sooo close to swapping my wife phones for her Evo just for that reason. The vast majority of Android phones tether using Ad-hoc networks.

FYI you can also create an Ad-hoc network with a Windows or Ubuntu/nix computer. This way, your Xoom can pick those up too.

Thank you! I've only been Bluetooth tethering with my og Droid. This is much better. Works great.

No problem. It's nice to finally have something to give back for a change.
