Hi!
I've put an app together (99% based on "Wireless Tether for Root Users") which allows tethering via USB. Clients need to support RNDIS - works fine with Microsoft Windows (tested with XP and 7) and Linux (OpenSuSE 11.1).
Zinx Verituse has ported the essential parts of the hero-kernel and cyanogen has introduced this feature in his latest rom. So, thanks Zinx for the patches and cyanogen for publishing on github.
Patches can be found here:
http://github.com/cyanogen/cm-kernel/commit/9fd56ebdb6aba91e9b17ddea490ec9b39a819112
http://github.com/cyanogen/cm-kernel/commit/1a57339f015c3bfa097cf1d3e82f3485a6652483
I've decided to create this app to give all rom-cooks the ability to use this feature without modifying system-services and/or system-apks.
What a cook needs to do: Patch your kernel and recompile - all other stuff is done by the app.
Download:
http://code.google.com/p/android-wired-tether/
Features:
* Tethering makes use of the mobile-data-connection (HSDPA/EDGE/GPRS) or WiFi-connection
* Uses correct domainname-servers - provided by your carrier or which are configured on the wifi-access-point you connect (even if the network changes => switch from 3g to wifi and vice versa)
* Allows to change the local-network (network/subnetmask)
Supported ROMs:
* CyanogenMod 4.2.3.1+
* Android Dev Phone 1
=> my kernel-update needs to be applied: http://code.google.com/p/android-wired-tether/downloads/list?q=Kernel
* ?
Have fun!
Harry
THX a lot for this app
sudo dhclient usb0 and there you go
Good work.
Alot of the hero roms were finally able to get wireless tethering for root working on, well, hero roms. i installed, but cant get it working. What patch should i use, im using Sense Hero1.3.3
Hi Harry,
I'm visiting from the CDMA Hero forum, in the hopes that you might have some pointers on how to get this to work on the rooted CDMA Hero?
When I looked at this project over at code.google.com, it seems like this requires 1.6, where the CDMA hero is running 1.5. Will this fact doom us to ever run wired tether at this point?
From what I can tell on my Hero, everything seems to run fine until after I allow root access for the app. It then gives me a FC when accessing the system settings (as it's the one referenced in the FC.)
Can I apply your kernel safely to my ROM? Thanks in advance for your help!!
doesnt seem to work with macs

Did you try http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=443025?
I've been using the wired tether for the past week and have experienced some issues. Mainly, if the tether app isn't in the foreground, the process seems to randomly get restarted. This manifests as brief hiccups in internet access for the connected computer. Didn't experience this problem using WT4R (in bluetooth mode).
HW: Dream
App: wired-tether-1.0.apk
Kernel: adp 1.6 usbtether-r3
OS: Vista SP2
If I remember to, i'll post a log later tonight.
Could you please explain (or put in the first post) why use this while the current tether in Network Settings (CM4.2.x) works just fine?

If usb-tethering with cyanogenmod is working fine for you there is no reason why you should use this app. I've implemented just a few enhancements (using the correct domainname-servers, changing lan-config) - I don't know how cyanogen is doing this stuff (I don't use it).
The main-idea of this app was to bring usb-tethering to other roms (where system-settings can't be modified or roms which a pretty close to stock roms and heavily modified parts are not welcome). All you need for this is a modified kernel which can be easily done.

Ah, it hadn't occurred to me that other roms might not yet have tethering.
Thanks for your contribution then!
Very good! Thank you!
Anyone have the usb drivers for Windows XP?
Thanks in advance!
Has anyone used this successfully with Dwang 1.13? When Cyanogen came out with USB tethering it practically rendered mounting my sdcard and adb unusable. But this would be nice to use.
Sorry...Here's the link for it all.
http://bit.ly/wDDT0
awesome app
hey dude thanks for this app. i have cyanogenmod 4.2.5 and i know usb tethering is enabled on there but i didnt know how to get it to work. this app made it easy and painless i just had to download htc sync for hero and it worked like a charm. love it..
Just wanted to jump in and say thanks. I'm using this in my newest build and it works like a charm. I couldn't remember the authors name so i came here to get it so I can give credit, so while I'm here I wanted to say good job, and thank you

This does work on dwangs 1.13 ... however it broke the cell network I was unable to get cell signal or network so it did me no good. I am working on way to fix this but I have not done dev for any phone in a long time, so it may take me a while to find out what is doing this.
::: I WILL NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE TO YOUR DEVICE :::
Hi everyone! Today my Galaxy Tab 10.1 (3G) has been updated to Honeycomb 3.2 via Samsung Kies.
During the update, i saved the Kies download folder containing the firmware.
I've uploaded to 4shared on this link:
http://www.4shared.com/file/IvMsjSLY/P7500ZVVKL1_P7500UBKL1_P7500VI.html
- Its about 727MB.
- You need Odim to flash (I cant help you with that).
- Is a Brazilian VIVO 3G version, and "i think" will work on any 3G Galaxy TAB 10.1.
- I've updated this morning so, not tested enough.
- Is more fast than the original 3.1 but, not fast enough We really need ICS.
Great job tonywalker!
Samsung released updates from gt-p7500 but vivo doesn't offer support.
Many people uses task650's roms, and look very awesome, but most of task650 updates and others works only in "gt wifi only". Is there any way to use these roms and apply 3g support on gt-p7500 from vivo?
Probably not. Developers would have to create a ROM specifically for gt-7500.
After a few days of use I can say that I really liked this update to 3.2. The most annoying problem was resolved, and now just the slowness of the tablet bothers me.
I think you should try.
Thanks a lot.
Searching an restock way for a looooong time, thank you.
which problems and apps?

I´d like to know what kind of problem did you find on 3.2 stock? Is it slowest than 3.1? Yesterday i rooted the tablet (3.1 os) and also overclocked, after these mods i realized that honeycomb are more fast and flow now. Honestly i dont want to create new problems that now.
Some apps are very usefull and cant miss on this tablet like:
- Folder Organize (u can use lite version)
- HD Widgets (improve time and weather with a excelent widget)
- Hide bar (the propose is: hide system bar every time you want, but bottom restore didnt work as the program promess)
- wifi ad hoc enabler (this app are really getting me nervous!!! I´m looking for a app that enable ad-hoc network and share files between pc and tablets (option locked by samsung). This is a new app and most os people are leaving messages saying that its perfect. After follow all the instructions i cant share my files.
** I tried to download 3.2 stock but i think that only 4shared users are allowed to download big files. Please, split the rom in two small files and reupload
Denis Costa
Just to confirm, I flash this by putting my tablet into download mode, then selecting PDA in odin and then search for the .tar.md5 file of the ROM right?
[UPDATE]2012-08-06 This is not the only way of getting Dongle's working on Android, If widgets are your thing and you doing feel confident working with system files etc then you may be better served using the ppp widget form draisberghof.de, these are the folks who piratically wrote the book on getting dongles working on linux and by extension android.
[UPDATE]2012-08-06 The source to libhuaweigeneric-ril ( github ) has been updated to include fixes made by omegaRed7 - This massively improves the fault tolerance upon RIL Startup, Tests were carried out on the E173s-1 but it should be beneficial to all modems ( I hope ).
[UPDATE]2012-07-28 As the Rom Version is quite old and it doesn't really require it's own rom I've extracted the files required to implement this functionality - Download Here, The Archive contains a README file with installation instructions
IMPORTANT - pppd permission need changing to 6755 also change to ownership to the root account ( Thanks to __DS__ ). you can do this through adb or terminal emulator
Code:
adb shell chown 0:0 /system/bin/pppd
adb shell chmod 6755 /system/bin/pppd
for this to function
[UPDATE]2012-06-25 Added Forked libhuaweigeneric-ril to Github Repo this includes all the changes I've made - Check This Post For Details
[UPDATE]2012-06-23 Added Github Repo - Check This Post For Details
[UPDATE]2012-06-16 THE DOWNLOAD LINK HAS BEEN UPDATED AS THE FILES IN /etc/system/usb_modeswitch WHERE NAMED INCORRECTLY[/UPDATE]
Hi Folks - This post is going to change fairly often, there is still more info to add, I just got bored with typing for now
The Sales Pitch
This rom aims to provides the same "hands free" approach offered by the Archos 3G Key and extends this functionality to Huawei Branded USB Modems.
Introduction
Here is a custom rom I've currently been hacking away at, if feels like I've had it under wraps for months.
That being the case. I'd like to thking on to enable Huawei USB Modems - This is still a WORK IN PROGRESS but It feels like i've been keeping it under wraps for months, So it's time to throw it out there for further testing. So Dongles at the Ready! It could get a little hacky
WARNING
The Full Size USB Slot has been known to fail from moderate use. As such I would recommend using an USB extensions cable for connecting devices.
VERY IMPORTANT NOTES - PLEASE READ
1. This is definitely not an every day use rom on any other device this woud have been deployed as a recovery flashable update. The reasoning behind the rom deployment is it's only one file to copy and youi're ready to go. It is also a tedious task to manually go through (especially on the 100th time
2. Please don't ask a me if a certain device will work or not. It is not helpful on a number of levels,
a) I simply don't know - I don't own the model in question. Further more you can figure it out yourself.
b) The Chances are that you could probably find out the answer without leaving the comfort of xda - The libhuaweigeneric-ril has been passed around xda like a <Insert Well Used Analogy Here> so a quick search of xda may turn up something useful to reassure you.
c) In reality though we are not going to know if your dongle is working until you "Try It Yourself".
3. if you find your device doesn't work then you need to gather all the relevant information to help get a feel of what's going on; See Below
SUPPORTED DEVICES
The theoretical list of supportted devices come from those devices supportted by usb_wwan and option kernelp drivers.
IMPORTANT NOTES - WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW
In a perfect world you can download/flash the attached update file. Reload your SDE, Plug a USB 3G Dongle and have It connect and go about you day .
This is the ultimate goal and currently what happens on my own device
TROUBLESHOOTING
There's about a 25% based on my current test this won't happen. There are 2 main ways your connection attempt can fail.
1. The UsbStick has not switched to modem mode
2. The ppp connection script failed
Either Way it would be highly useful post the list of system properties, outputs of dmesg and also a full logcat aswell as the vendor/product id from lsusb,
some like this throught the adb
Code:
adb shell getprops
adb shell lsusb
adb shell dmesg
adb logcat -b radio -b system -b main -b events
Please have a glance over it before posting as It may contain information that you would not want others to see!

KNOWN ISSUES
"3G Stick Connected" Icon remains in notification list after device disconnection.
pppd needs to be executed with elevated privileges.
pppd is not exiting correctly on some occasions and cause reconnection issues when using multiple sticks.
Thanks go to surdu_petru for the base sde, derAtem for his original work on the libhuaweigeneric-ril.so and pretty much every developer who has worked on these dongles with android, I think I've read every thread on XDA regarding this subject
Hi!
Thanks trevd!
I do not have this USB modem ....but you did a good job for those who have this modem ! Good luck...

Is this a new model ( released this year )? It may already be in there, The easiest thing to do is plug it in.
If you install this app you can find out what the product_id is and then we can find out for sure.
Thanks
no released in 2009

Hi trevd.
Thanks for the work.
Before installing your rom, I'd like to know if my Huawei K3565 is or will be supported.
I can't remember when it was released, but it not a new one ; may be 2009 or 2010.

Hi Rackham666
I'd refer back to my first post, I've tried to make it a little more clear what this "rom" exactly is, more a testing ground, my apologises if that wasn't very clear at first glance, So to switch this query right back at you.
After installing my rom, I'd like to know if your Huawei K3565 is supported?.
For my usn dongle , is it ok for you ?
Okay.
I'll try your additions manually when [email protected] V3 will be released by Petru.
Get The Code
Hi Folks.
I've started a github repo if anyone wants to hack on this stuff.... It only contains the code for the hotplug service at the moment but I will obviously add more when I get chance and apply all the proper GPL licenses to it.
A personal word of note : C is not my first language by any stretch ( although it is fast becoming the case ) so If It causes any memory leaks or starts nuclear war I can't be held responsible, however if there is any noob coding errors in there then I'm ready to learn off those more knowledgeable than I. I have a feeling we have some hardcore developers lurking in Archos Development community
Equally If anyone has any fixes drop me a pm and I'll sort commit access on the repo or post them right here in the thread,
The code can be found here https://github.com/trevd
Hi Folks, Me Again!
Just to let you guys know I've added a forked libhuaweigeneric-ril to my github ( https://github.com/trevd )
It includes the changes I made to enable it to work the Archos.
You'll want to clone the ics branch if you want to compile yourself.

Hi Alahkel
You're not bothering me .... DO I really sound/come across as that grumpy/angry in my first post.... sometimes I get cranky when I don't get enough sleep.... too much time looking at code.... :laugh:
Thanks for having a go, Are you using the official SDE? and have you got a working SDE Rom already installed?
For now I would forget about the rom image and bear with me, I'm working on an installer APK which will probably better help with testing, I'll also put the manual installation method up for those who want to get dirty with adb.
Hi, i succesfully installed your build then, btw running unoff sde. I have a huawei 170something, I don't remember the model, but it's working great with no problems, but using a otg cable only. I didn't get it to work using the big usb slot

That's great news Interesting that you couldn't/haven't got it working on the full size port... It should function the same as the official Archos Stick, You need to switch on the 3G Stick in the settings and the full size slot should "Just Work". I may have missed that little detail out
If that doesn't work your full size slot is maybe broken A not uncommon issue it seems. unfortunately.
Out of interest what network are you on?
I'm just working on the installer now so you won't be stuck with old archos versions.

Hi trevd,
i'm guessing this won't work on CM9 by JackpotClavin, or would it? If yes, would i install it the same way as described?
Thanks in advance!
Edit: Sorry i'm obviously still running in 1st gear in the morning... There's no 3G support in the CM9 port so there's no way this would just "work"...
Edit2: And confirmation that i need more coffee: Saw your post in CM9 thread about the successful connection with Archos' 3G stick and a Huawei 3G stick, but only through the browser... Any progress on fixing things so the ppp connection is fully usable by other apps & services?
Hi, trevd!
how to launch the modem on a firmware 4.0.7?
I copy these files from your firmware
init.dongle.rc - initialization script, I wanted to avoid "polluting" any other init file too much
/lib/modules/usb_wwan.ko and /lib/modules/option.ko - USB Drivers for GSM modems
/system/lib/libhuaweigeneric-ril.so - A slightly tweaked version of DerArtem original huaweigeneric-ril

I change the init.rc file for init.dongle.rc start
but the Huawei E1550 modem doesn't work
what it is necessary to change still?
Thanks!
=========================
sorry, everything earned, it was necessary to update a modem firmware
Hi deman05
You were nearly there, init.dongle.rc is imported on the very first line of init.rc so you need both files.
You shouldn't have to do anything with the modem firmware as usb_modeswitch will handle turning the modem.
The files required are.
init.rc
init.dongle.rc
/lib/modules/usb_wwan.ko
/lib/modules/option.ko
/system/lib/libhuaweigeneric-ril.so
/system/bin/hotplugd
Also you need the full contents of the following directories
/system/etc/usb_modeswitch
/system/etc/ppp
/system/etc/chatscripts
I've attached the latest versions to this post (hopefully I've not missed anything), you will need to change the permissions on /system/bin/pppd.
chmod 6755 pppd
[EDIT] I did miss something, please see the first post for the correct download link.
The new version also handles a cold boot ( modem plugged in on startup ) scenario.
If you are still having issues please refer to the troubleshooting section in my original post
Thanks
Hello Nexus 4 Developers!
I work with Jrummy Apps Inc, the company and developer who brought you Rom Toolbox, Root Browser, Ultimate Backup, Busybox Installer, and many other root apps.
First, some background:
ROM Toolbox combines all the great root apps into one monster app with a beautiful and easy to use interface. ROM Toolbox has every tool you need to make your Android device fast and customized to your liking. ROM Toolbox has been featured on LifeHacker, XDA-Developers, Droid-Life, Android Central, RootzWiki, Android Police, DroidForums and other popular sites. ROM Toolbox has one of the highest ratings in the top 100 paid apps. Over 12,000 people gave it a full 5 star review! ★★★★★
ROM Toolbox combines apps like Titanium Backup, ROM Manager, Root Explorer, SetCPU, Ad Blocker, MetaMorph, Autorun Manager, Terminal Emulator, Script Manager, SD Booster, BuildProp Editor, Font Installer, Boot Animation Installer & many more apps into an all-in-one app!
The Revamped Rom Manager section now adds support for OTA updates!
Here’s where you come in:
We want your rom in our app. All roms will be *completely* free to download through our Rom Manager.
Why should you want to put your rom in our app?
Because your rom would be available to a much larger audience with more potential downloads and donations for you.
We want this to be as easy as possible for you.
To get your rom on ROM Toolbox, please do the following:
1) Fill out the file below with the roms/zips you want to have.
2) Save it in JSON (.js) format. I recommend using the free program called Notepad++ to modify and save json files.
3) Upload this file to your server. That way you can be in control of what ROMs show up at all times. Otherwise we can host it ourselves.
4) Send us the link to this file on your server.
5) Send us a summary of the ROM.
6) Send us the name of the ROM.
7) Send us the devices you support. (Device id not device name, Ex: mako not Nexus 4)
Code:
{
"version": "1",
"homepage": "http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=...",
"donate": "https://www.paypal.com/...",
"roms": [
{
"name": "NoWizAOSPmod v.1.4.2 (7/22)",
"product": "NoWizAOSPmod",
"summary": "NoWizAOSP is a rom without wiz, and mimicking aosp...",
"device": "d2spr",
"url": "http://xeoduxus.com/downloadable/nowizaosp.zip"
}
]
}
Note: you can add as many zips/roms as you want.. just add another section right under the "rom" entry. If you need any assistance filling this out feel free to ask and we can help you!
If you'd like to use addons, optional, flashable downloads with your rom, please let me know and I'd be happy to explain how to do it.
Ideally we would love for you to maintain your own download link. If this is not possible, please contact us and we'll do our best to help out.
ROM Toolbox is going through a major overhaul currently and has been completely rewritten. We want you to be a part of this!
Thanks!

The more info we can gather the easier it will be to find a fix for this. So if someone can test this out and give us some feedback, thank you very much .
Is there any other kernel for this phone that has WiFi working? Maybe I could try to get the WiFi piece from the good one and put it into this one.
The medusa and sense 5 would I just replace all WiFi references.

after flashing this kernel, could you do this for me:
1. Flash UKM http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software/zip-synapse-script-universal-kernel-t2736986
2. Install "synapse" (its an app), reboot
3. Go into synapse, you should now be able to configure the kernel (if you still cant, refer to the link above).
4. Post screenshots of EVERYTHING
5. Upload your build.prop (/system/)
i wish i had a first i could go through the file system myself.
Edit:
Hopefully stock android filesystems stay the same from version to version. im on 5.0 at the moment on my nexus but try some of these things too:
1: delete this folder /data/misc/wifi/ And /data/misc/dhcp and system/etc/wifi reboot. (try deleting 1, then reboot, then if it doesnt work, delete the first 2 folders, reboot, if that doesnt work, delete all 3. try different combos).
(and/or)
2: force stop Bluetooth Share (i think you can go to apps>all> and find it there. reboot
3: drain the battery to 0. like make sure the thing is DEAD and wont boot even into recovery. let it sit for some time. plug in your charger and turn it on at the same time.
here is some additional info. if you want to try this. go right a head!

Hello all!
I registered here so that i could share a possible solution to the stuck wifi problem. On my nexus the BT was also stuck most of the time.
Been having the problem for about two weeks and was about to do a clean install and, if the problem persisted, call Google support. Thing is, I had the feelling it was software related and that the hardware was ok.
I´m not sure if BT, Wifi and NFC use the same hardware but the fact was that wifi worked for a few days, BT for a few more and NFC was always functional.
I did some extensive research thru the web and it seemed that this problem was not nexus unique and seemed to be related with wpa_supplicant.conf or wpa_supplicant in the bin file.
On this page, mind you the text is pretty old and not entirely android related:
http:_//_blog.linuxconsulting.ro_/2010/04/porting-wifi-drivers-to-android._html (I can't post links yet so just copy past and remove spacing)
I found this little snippet that caught my attention:
Seems that you can add ap_scan=1 to your wpa_supplicant.conf depending on the drivers you have.
After some more research on the subject of ap_scan i found that:
It seems that addind ap_scan=1 imposes that wpa_supplicant.conf handles the scanning and AP selection. IF there's something wrong with the driver, and not with wpa_supplicant as i originaly thought, this could bypass the problem.
So I added ap_scan=1 just before the device identification lines in wpa_supplicant.conf, reeboted, and now the wifi and bluetooth toggle normaly. I've tried ap_scan=0 (the driver handles the scanning) and the problem returns, so ap_scan=1 does allow you to toggle the wifi and BT on.
I can't yet verify that the phone actually connects to a wireless network and has the same stability and range as before as I'm at work and there's no wireless here.
Therefore I ask for your help to verify this "fix" and thoughts on this.
Sorry if the post is a mess. Both english and programming aren´t my native languages...
My device is a Nexus 5 with stock 4.4.4 KitKat and root.

So, quick update:
Managed to find an wireless network around and connected to it. Some time later, no sure how much, the phone rebooted.
Some time after that the wifi and Bt were stuck again. Accessed wpa_supplicant.conf and deleted the new wireless network information. Rebooted and all was functional again.
Seems the fix is incomplete as any rewrite of the wpa_supplicant.conf reinduces the initial problematic behaviour...
____________________ Extra Update_______________________
Ok, so it seems that the wpa_supplicant.conf is suposed to have ap_scan=1 by default.
After boot and when I connect to a wifi network my file resets and shows without ap_scan=1 and instead of:
ctrl_interface=wlan0
its
ctrl_interface=data/misc/wifi/sockets
Wifi with a conf. like this never works. If I manualy "correct" the file and reboot, the wifi toogles on, but after a wifi connect gets busted up again.
by now I've done:
- copy wpa_supplicant (the bin file) from a stock 4.4.4
- Check file permissions for all wpa_supplicant files
- dirty flash the stock build (it's my original build so less harm done i guess)
- 2 Clean installs
- 6 factory resets
And the problem persists.
I've called google support and they are sending a new phone as we speak. Now I'm not sure if it's a software or hardware problem (maybe a combination of the two?) but I figured it would be better to reroll a device instead of trying to fix this one as this problem is cleary out of my league.
Thank you all!

Yeah all end correct. Try the steps I posted to fixing Wi-Fi hopefully it will work
BTW. Are you running android 4.4? I thought HTC first is only 4.1
I built this kernel awhile back use GCC 4.6 so is it 4.4 cause all works on this kernel
