I m running ICS 4.0.3 and I am having work wifi with proxy. I have also installed proxy droid and I am able to download apps and browse internet through my wifi. BUT THE PROBLEM is not all apps are having access to Wifi. i.e. Gtalk is not able to sign in while using internet from wifi.

My whatsapp & gtalk not working over 3g network , but when using wifi ,it's ok . After I installed to my Samsung i9000 with CM 10.0 ,..both of them not working ( i tried browsing using browser, the 3G internet it's ok, but whatsapp & gtalk act like my phone don't have any connection to internet).
Today, i just tried updated my phone to CM 10.1 nightly .. and still in same condition . I googling , but can not find the solution. Any setting need to do for this problem ?
Is Wi-Fi Direct Software or Hardware feature. Is there any possible way to connect to a Wi-Fi Direct device from a device with only Wi-Fi support without using Superbeam or other apps that use Wifi hotspot feature.
In Wi-Fi Direct specification, it is written that "Only one of the Wi-Fi devices needs to be compliant with Wi-Fi Direct to establish a peer-to-peer connection that transfers data directly between each other with greatly reduced setup."
I just got a Netgear Push2TV 3000, which not only encompases WiDi, but Miracast support in this version.
From what my understand is though, is that both these WiDi and Miracast technologies are basically just wireless HDMI anyway.
My question is if it's possible to come up with a mod to work to allow any (or at least most) rooted phones with a ROM like CM that integrate Miracast into their settings for every build?
I did try doing just that with my droid 4 running CM 10,1 with its wifi direct setting..it said it was connecting, amazingly...but nothing else after that.
Radio Shack had this phone on sale for $14 cash this weekend, I picked up a couple of them to setup to use for WiFi text/music/YouTube phones for my kids.
I have rooted them and now just want to get rid of the Virgin Mobile automatic profile update that attempts to happen when I power on the phone. If possible, I would like to permanently disable the cellular data/voice modem as well leaving WiFi enabled. What app I should disable/ remove through titanium backup to do this?
I have absolutely no intention of ever activating these phones for traditional cell service. They will strictly be used as WiFi android devices. Basically a cheapo alternative to an iPod.
I have set the phone for airplane mode and then enabled WiFi to prevent them from making calls, this is a reasonable solution but they could turn on the cell radio and start trying to activate, although they wouldn't get far as they don't have a way to provide payment anyway.
Problem is their mother isn't the brightest and when they are away at mom's, I would like to be able to text them and not be on the phone with her troubleshooting them constantly.
I can't use WiFi at work (a uni) as it needs a proxy address. Has anyone found an app to allow proxy settings input? It's a real bad failing for such a great device. I know Android 2.1 doesn't support as standard. Am gutted by their inability to work on this

View 9 Replies View RelatedSeveral posts have "confirmed" that the Incredible has WiFi N. Maybe it is capable of WiFi N, but N is certainly not enabled. See attached picture of Airport Utility at my house, which is a WiFi N router. You can see that one device is connected at 802.11a/n with a rate of 270 mpbs. You can see that another device is connected at 802.11b/g with a rate of 54 mpbs. That device is my HTC Incredible. I've tried it with two different WiFi N networks, and the incredible never connects at anything other than WiFi G, and it never has a rate higher than 54 mbps. Does anybody still care to argue that the Incredible has WiFi N enabled? Has anybody else experienced anything different?

View 11 Replies View RelatedThis seems like a common issue developers have yet I couldn't find anything on it (searched through the archives in this mailing list and Google searches). Maybe I just fail at research, but anyway.. My app requires a network connection. If it is disabled I'd like to notify users that it is required and then possibly open the network settings box so they can enable it.

1. -http-proxy option using emulator command.
2. setting http_proxy environment and then launching the emulator.
3. Settings proxy using APN settings (Telkilla) (this worked till Android 1.6 version)
4. adding an entry in settings. CODE:.........

How can we access Internet from emulator (behind a proxy).
After upgrading to SDK 1.6 the emulator seems to be unable the Internet through a proxy (-http-proxy option). The same is working in SDK 1.5R3.
Can anyone confirm? Did I miss something?
I've noticed this over the last couple of days. I have unlimited data, so have my email on autosync. I also get a lot of emails - so if I wake up (as today) to no new ones, I know something is wrong. I have the autosync thing enabled, but even when I got to the settings and ask it to sync now, it wont - it wont even try - there's no circling sync symbol, even for a moment - even unchecking then rechecking the things for syncing wont work. I have to turn it off then on before it'll do it again. What's going on - when out and about it sometimes takes me a while to notice it's not working, and turning off and on.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI think this problem arose after I purchased 'Extended Controls'. I turn off wifi (doesn't matter if I use extended controls or not) and the APN Control turns itself on, really quite annoying! Is there any way to fix this? Edit - Forgot to mention, this seems to be intermittent as well :/....
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am always conscious of battery lately, this is actually kind of annoying. Its extra work to get the GPS enabled when trying to use google maps. Why can't it just auto enable when one touch? I don't enable all these features (except refresh for push email) bc I'm so paranoid about this darn battery.... Plus, I'm always killing apps. Just want to know what you guys keep running and how your batteries are fairing.
View 22 Replies View RelatedI'm experiencing some strange phenomenon on my HTC Magic. I have disabled my 3G, so I only use 2G networks.
But on random times, not very often, I suddenly get a message, saying I have new unread Gmail email. When I look at my Gmail inbox, my inbox is totally up to date! I think this is very strange, because I had 3G and WIFI disabled when I retreived these mails. Can Gmail email be retreived via the 2G network? As far as I know, email can not be retrieved via GPRS or other 2G network.
I have been having issues with my Nexus One when trying to stream music via bluetooth to my clarion cd player. It was hit and miss, sometimes playing fine, sometimes not even connecting for 5 minutes. I may have found the problem, i was having some cutting and out issues tonight and i disabled wifi and it immediatly played silky smooth. I then turned on wifi and it started to cut in and out immediatly. This leads me to believe the wifi radio is causing problems streaming music via bluetooth but wanted to find out if anyone else had similar issues and what they do. I just came from using an iphone 3gs and never had these issues, it always played smooth. I have no problems disabling wifi when in my truck but want to get other opinions.
View 5 Replies View RelatedThis is what I would like to do: => IF WiFi is enabled AND active, launch an intent (in fact it's a WebView that gets its content=>the instructions of my app on the web) => IF NOT, then I would launch another intent so that I don't show a WebView with "Web page not available ... The Web page at http://www.mywebsite.com might be temporarily down or it may have moved ..."
I tought initially to use
if(wifi.isWifiEnabled())
but that does not say if the Wifi connection is ACTIVE or not. It says only that the user has turned the switch on. The device may or may not be connected... Is this correct ?

Does anyone know of a cheap Android or programmable device that has wifi? I need it for a project for a company that needs a wifi handheld device for the shop floor. Im not too fussed about the language the device uses though Im not really interested in the iTouch as theres no intention to release the app in the app store and I don`t really want to jail break everybodys iTouch. Ideally it would be small , iTouch size for example and relatively cheap $100 or less. Nothing fancy just ability to write a simple UI and have wifi. Voice is not needed.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI installed Pete's BB v0.5 (ERE53) yesterday. Using the stock non-overclocked kernel, I am stunned at how much faster 2.1 is over 2.01.Anyway, I am curious about the JIT compiler and edited build.prop to enable it. I understand from reading either here or somewhere else that you don't have to push the three files (libnativehelper.so, etc.) as they already exist in BB. I did indeed find the three files.So how do I test to see if JIT is actually enabled and working? I ran Linpack a bunch of times before and after enabling. The highest I've see after enabling JIT is 4.667 mflops. It seems to consistently return 4.6xx mflops with occasional drops to 4.5xx or 4.4xx. Before enabling, it seemed to return mostly 4.5xx with an occasional 4.6xx. With such a small difference, I'm not convinced that JIT is actually enabled & working.

Is there any way for an application to force a network request to go over the mobile network if it's available in preference to WiFi? I'm looking at ConnectivityManager#setNetworkPreference, but there's no documentation, and looking at the source seems to suggest it's setting a global preference somewhere which isn't what's required here - I just need to force certain requests that need to go over the mobile network to ignore WiFi.

View 2 Replies View RelatedSo Im writing an application to communicate to a Wi-Fi enabled Arduino board with a static IP...
This is what Im trying to do...
1.) Enter Ip and Host
2.) Connect
3.) Simply send either a "0" or "1" to the arduino board
There are two activities at the moment, one to enter the IP and port of the Board (which is set from the board itself) and one to send data to the board. When i comment out the connection methods in the Communicator class the app swithches activities without any issues, but when i un-comment them and attempt to connect, the app immediately closes after i attempt to connect.

I wanna set the ADB_ENABLED and USB_MASS_STORAGE_ENABLED option automatically in my App.
so i add below statement in my App(Activity).
---------------------- Settings.Secure.putInt(getContentResolver(), Settings.Secure.ADB_ENABLED, 0);
or
Settings.Secure.putInt(getContentResolver(), Settings.Secure.ADB_ENABLED, 1); ----------------------
and add below statement in my App(manifest).
---------------------- .... </application> <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_SETTINGS" /> <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_SECURE_SETTINGS" /> .... ----------------------
but some exception are occured in runtime like below.
---------------------- Uncaught hander: thread main exiting due to uncaught exception. java.lang.SecurityException: Permission denial: writing to secure settings requires android.permission.WRITE_SECURE_SETTINGS ... ----------------------
How i can use ADB_ENABLED and USB_MASS_STORAGE_ENABLED in my App?
