Hey everyone!
Quick question, and it's probably more of a general Android Wear 5.1.1 question, but does anyone know if the Urbane can connect to public WiFi hotspots which require a sign in or have a splash page?
Thanks in advance!

I believe it can, but it will open the splash page on your phone to accept the terms before your watch connects to it.
Actually I just tried it and it didn't work
We have Wifi all around my work building and you need to accept terms on a Splash page before using it. I tried accept it on my phone then connect my Urbane to the wifi, but it doesn't seem to be working.
Anyone else have any luck?

Hi
Well, I wanted to know how to use wifi direct to send things to my friend. His phone has wifi direct and my black too, but I don't know how to use. I read that I need an app called wifi cast, and I found this app on smartworld. I installed the app, but I don't know what do I have to do.
Thanks
Short: I don't know, but if you want know something about my experiment
After nearly a year with my black I wanted to try this feature. I could connect a Galaxy S2 with my Black. Then I tried to send a file from the S2. Error. I searched for a possibility to send a file from the black over wifi-direct but, there is no button for that.
I assume that LG wants you to use "Smartshare", but afaik that works only with other LG devices.
Hi Swaddy
Thanks for the answer.
My friend has a galaxy note, and some weeks ago I could connect my black to his note, but I didn't send any pic to his phone. But this week, I tried to connect and I couldn't, don't know why. I guess smartshare doesn't send files, but thanks anyway

for now we can use wifi direct for sending pics videos between two optimus black only using wifi cast, i have two OB @ home so i tested it but when i want to send it to my galaxy s2 or my brother's galaxy note it gets connected through wifi direct but wifi cast doesn't show them so its not possible to transfer with other devices except optimus black
The most useful for me is Copying files between OB and PC using WiFi direct. I have read somewhere that the other device doesn't need to have the WiFi direct hardware feature. Everything can be enabled with software... but How?
I use file manager by rhythm software it has LAN capabilities so i can connect to my PC by IP address.

You need to make sure that your phone is connected through wifi and not 3g/4g. I had the same problem. It needs to download the update no matter what, but since the update is so huge it will refuse to download if your connection is not wifi.

Another network worked. Must have been some packet prioritizing on my works network or something.

Virtualization is enabled in BIOS (Dell XPS 13 9350). Not sure where to go from here. Have been searching the web for the past hour.
Any ideas?
Same issue here.
ASUS X99-Deluxe 3.1
Does the host OS windows have internet connection?
you could use adb shell (under the remixemu/platform-tools) and try to ping the gateway and dns to see what happens.

Also came here for a solution to this. My Host PC has internet access. Thought the Player would use the same automatically but it has no internet access.
Let there be networking in Remix OS player!
Same situation here.
Mine can access the internet connection from the PC but the Remix WiFi settings are non-functional. If its set to WiFi Off, I still can access the PC connection, if its set to WiFi On, I cant see any wifi networks. In either setting I cant see any of the nodes on the local network. Maybe thats how its supposed to be for now...
I've alerted our developers about this and they'll be putting this high in their list of issues to fix. I'll update here when there's relevant news. Thanks!

And yes, the host has internet access.
Any News?
I have Lenovo Z470 i3
same issue
So there is still no solution? searched couple of hours until at least to find this thread, that I'm not alone with that.
Edit: Dell Latitude E6430 with i7.
Notebook has Ethernet access to internet via proxy or WiFi connection. Remix OS Player only has WiFi, turned off, can be turned on, but nothing happens.
Same as others above have internet on host and can use through host but is slow and won't turn on on player.
Same here since the beginning on Lenovo G580. I gave my laptop name cause some dit, but looks like more it's no connection for google play and not a problem with the hardware the player is used on. Most of my downloads were possible from web browser/else solution, but I can only remember few download/install/update with google play, except while on the lock-screen, I can see download and updates happening after launching the player.
Hope theses details may help.
Internet is key feature to your soft.
Same here, 1.0.104 build 2016092703 can't have any internet access. The only network option is WiFi, but it had nothing appeared no matter it was turned on or off.
Is there any FAQ about networking? In case if I missed.
Now working since last update.

Sorry. But my connexion is now working for any task from within the player, so I'm at least noticing people to re-download/install. I don't know from where the issue comes, nor if there are more than one with the same result, I'm not a dev.
Plus if it's related, I probably don't own the same computer as you do.
Anyway. Internet is working ^^' (there is an update to Remix Wi-Fi app too. This may be the reason ?)
And like AmoraRei says, remember to modify your antivirus/firewall/windows things rules or to create specific ones for RemixOS. People sometimes fail to catch the notifications about connection prevention, or are just in auto mode so sometimes there are programs that may lack full connection possibilities.
@npaulseth @zuegg @ArnoldGarry256 @kckman @fftfft @silverlake @dasfranky @johnnymunn @Esdeve @nekosp @technicx -
Actually, @codecop had the right idea to help us troubleshoot your (and everyone's) Wi-Fi issues. Can you guys follow his post (page 1 of this thread, 2nd post down) and share your info here in this thread? We'll troubleshoot through this info. Thanks!
I recently updated to unlimited data with ATT, and found out after I updated to the new plan that I no longer able to turn the Tethering ON, which I only use it sometimes for may son's Tablet, when we are in an area where we don't have wifi like in my car.
My question, if I root my device, will I be able to have that function back, or is there other option?
Before someone sees search the forum, which I did, there so much information, I dont know which is valid anymore, any advice or link is much appreciated.
my device is:
sm-N900A
Android version 5.0
Base Band version:N900AUCSE0C3
Thanks in advances
no luck

My understanding is the issue is 5.0. 4.0 & 4.2 seem to be possible right now.
Hi to All, I know this has nothing to do with phones, but there might just be someone here who can solve this anyway
My problem is that I live in an area in th Philippines, where Globe telecom is the only solution for internet, and a very unstable one. Sometimes the speed is all the way down to 80Kbps and sometimes it goes to 0.
This makes using a Chromecast very dificult, it's possible to use when the speed is fine, but a sudden drop in speed sends chromecast in buffering mode. I tried to get Google to help, to no avail - they don't care.
I would like to have it not searching for internet, as 99.9% of the time i use it for internal casting(Offline)!
Anyone have a solution for this?
My Chromecast is 3rd gen. According to this page https://www.techthatworks.net/electronic/what-generation-chromecast-do-i-have and use Firmware(checked that in Home App) 1.49.230269
Hope to hear from you smart people soon as this is driving me nuts, I'm back to use USB stick and not all format are supported, so I have to convert and convert and so on, in order to watch the clips.
Thank you in advance

Moderator: could you move the thread to the chromecast forum? Thank you

Is it legal?

Hi Peppe, why would it be illegal, I paid for the device - its mine I just want it to stop looking for the internet all the time, and do what it was bought for -casting.
Not possible, it's a real design flaw of the chromecast. I have slow internet and use it for internal casting too, very frustrating. Maybe get a bluray player or a roku they are better.
Thank you

seem that Admin can close this one then

The 3rd gen Chromecast will not boot or function if it can't hit Google's servers at boot. If it looses general internet connection, it will go to a "I've lost my brains" type of screen and not let you do anything. For a Chromecast, the internet connection is sadly required even if you're just mirroring locally.
