I have the same problem and need help with my Toshiba Thrive Tablet running Android 3.1 Stock ROM. There seem to be different versions of the wpa_supplicant file and I can't figure out which one to use with my Thrive Tablet. I haven't been able to find any step by step instructions either on how to make the modifictions with the file so I can see Ad-Hoc networks with my Thrive. I appreciate any help you can give me. Thanks so much!

Check this link out. The file that I used is here in the link. Download, and follow the process.

PS: adb commands are required if you connect your tablet to the PC and try to control it from there. If you are carrying out the process directly from the tablet. omit the adb commands. And don't forget to reboot after the process, else it won't work.

You used this file on a Toshiba Thrive Tablet? It says that file is for a rooted Xoom Tablet. I already tried it and it didn't work. I posted a message on the Thrive Forum and they said the Thrive needs to be rooted and you can't root the Thrive yet because it's so new there isn't a Root Procedure availible yet. So, I guess there is nothing I can do until a Root Procedure is available for this tablet.

Wlan is On! Waiting for Ics...

Move it to another post...

---------- Post added at 12:24 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:57 AM ----------

I have WMWIFIROUTER 0.89 installed on a Mogul ppc6800 windows 7 custom rom

Wlan is On! Waiting for Ics... what i did to get this to work was went to
settings> connections> wi-fi> Add New>

Network name: XDA-Wifi-Sharing
Connects to: The Internet
Checked: This is a device-to-device (ad-hoc) connection
Authentication: Open
Data Encryption: Wep
Network Key: 1234567890
Key index = 1
Next > Finish
make sure that the Wifi switch if you have one is on and that the wifi is one
After that i went to the WMWifiRouter icon
Click> Option>Configuration>Auto reconnect>check>
Backed out and-than click connect. and it connected to the ad-hoc XDA-Wifi-router all by itself getting past the
ForeSaken Zone (Wlan is On! Waiting for Ics...) Than you go to the computer wifi connect to the ad hoc XDA-Wifi-router
go to the internet browser
example IE: tools>Internet options> connections>Lan settings> Proxy server

Only if your phone connection uses a proxy server like METROPCS
And check Use a proxy server for your Lan (these settings will not apply to dial-up or VPN connections).

Hope this helps the world and that maker of the app..I looked for this solution forever my brain was on refry...

other phones/devices can't see connection but computer can

I don't know what to do, I feel like I've tried everything. I want to be able to broadcast the wifi from my phone a t-mobile HTC Hd2 , to my other phone and my boyfriends phone (mine is a HTC Sensation his is a HTC Incredible - both running android). My laptop sees the connection and connects just fine. Neither of the phones sees the connection to be able to connect to. I don't see an option in the phone (Sensation or Incredible) to enable ad-hoc networks? My father also has a HTC Sensation and when he turns on his wi-fi as a hotspot, I can connect to it without a problem. Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks in advance!

Hi emaline, I've just been through this with my Android tablet, your right, Android is setup not to see ad-hoc connections although it is perfectly able to connect to them. Amongst your files you will find one called wpa_supplicant. This is the file that needs changing, you'll have to research it for your device but I found a replacement suitable for my tablet "wpa_supplicant.adhoc" that allows ad-hoc networks to be seen & hence connected to as normal. Just a case of copying into the folder & renaming.
Best things is to Google it for your device.
Best of luck

Hi there guys,
WMwifirouter is now a free app as it is not continued for WM6.5. I installed 2.0 version on SE Aspen M1i and the problem is the laptop connects to the phone's network (takes long however) but internet does not work - no response from any server. Is there anything I should change from the default settings like this proxy or something (I am not using proxy on the phone so..)? the 3g internet connection works just fine on the phone itself

I've been using wifirouter on xperia X1 without a problem (built into 826x htc sense rom) - is there a cab for that app ?

No, it isn't in the software. You have to create a wireless connection in your wireless networks. You have to create an ad-hoc computer to computer connection, and that's what the program uses.

Hardware issue. Take it to a TMO store

No, I was one of their beta testers when they were making that version years ago. You need to setup an ad-hoc network connection.

Hi there
My wifirouter app on M1i is not working despite messing with different settings (the laptop just won't ping/connect to anything over the internet although on phone it works fine)
I remember different app worked fine on X1, pehaps anyone has that one (or another one to try) or know where to look for it

It would be really useful, otherwise I will have to transition with everything into new phone, which I don't like at all ! (
