3G coverage where my office is located is really poor and the office doesn't have a wireless network (lol I know).
Is there any other way I can share my network connection from my laptop? I know I can use the 3G to my laptop but basically I want to reverse that.

Recently I've started facing a problem on my Desire. Sometimes it acts like the network is down, and the signal bar shows a cross. At that time when I tried another sim card, the network was working fine. Then after a while my phone starts showing network with the original sim. But it won't connect to the internet. It simply won't connect, although I am toggling the mobile data connection tick mark.
Right now the network has gone again, and I'm trying to get connected to it through either Automatic registration or manually selecting from the list of network providers. But I get the message "unable to connect to this network at this time"...
To android 4 months ago and running an Unrooted Desire Android 2.2 on O2 (OTA update to froyo went no problem) No Taskiller
Must say I'm loving android, for the sheer ability to customise it, altough not brave enough to root yet!
Installed folder organiser and launcher pro plus cos I want to change icons and names of folders etc.
My problem is when I switch from sense to laucher pro, i lose my data connection widget/ shortcut and cant get it back. On my sense screen I have the power control widget, which gives me the wifi connection toggle and also a mobile web toggle. I want a mobile web toggle that works with launcher pro.
Downloaded the widgets pack from curvefish, but the APN on/off does nothing at all.
Does anyone know why in wireless & network settings it says connection failed under mobile networks?It'l connect to 3g for a bit but then come up with connection failed?

I can select a video to view and it looks like it's loading but after serveral minutes the error message 'Sorry no network connection right now, please try again later' or 'Sorry, this video cannot be played. this video is not available'
My internet seems to be working although it seems very slow (thought it should be alot faster). Is there something I need to set up to be able to view the videos? I've tried using the youtube widget and also using Dolphin HD but with no luck.
Is anyone else not getting a mobile internet connection right now? This has happened before on Orange but it's different this time because my phone doesn't seem to be searching for a network to join (before in the settings it would say "searching" or something and be greyed out but not this time)
Hopefully it's just a network problem, rather than my phone
I've managed to fix it i think. It would seem something I installed (im thinking SwitchPro Widget) changed the APN name in the settings to orangeinternet_off.
I would like to get my droid to be a computer on my home or office network, such that I can get files directly on it, print from it etc. I was able to do this win my winmo phones, but of course, they were windows and so was my network. Is there a way to attach to a computer, and have a file manager on the droid that will be able to see and copy files back and forth between the phone and the computer. I can do this with other linux computers on my work network.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI got myself a Samsung Galaxy S. And decided to sell my Milestone to a guy. So when he is testing out the phone the WiFi doesn't scan his office WiFi. It scan every WiFi around us except the office WiFi. I use my Milestone's WiFi all the time. And all the time it scan and detect all the WiFi. Infact 30 mins before the sale I was using the Milestone's WiFi at school to find a map to his place.
Weird thing is when I use my Galaxy S to scan WiFi, it scanned all the WiFi and his office's WiFi too. So does anyone know why my Milestone is able to scan everyone else WiFi except his office's WiFi? It couldn't be hidden because my Galaxy S was about to scan his WiFi. This is extremely bad luck, because I know my Milestone is in perfect working condition and now he would think I'm scamming him.
I am looking for a way to print Office Documents from my phone. I have a WiFi printer. Currently using OfficeSuite Pro. But it has no printing provision that I can discover. So far my workarounds are.
1. Transferring the file from SD card to PC. Opening the file and printing from there.
2. Attach the file and email to myself. Open the attachment and print from there.
I would like to be able to send the file directly from the phone to the WiFi printer. I saw some print apps in the market, but none seemed to do Office Documents.
I have been looking at the ConnectivityManager class documented at http://developer.android.com/reference/android/net/ConnectivityManage... .
I would like to know if an Android application can open a network connection (socket) on a specified network interface [on a device supporting multiple network interface types WiFi, Cellular, WiMax etc] ? I am looking for the capability for an application to open a socket on a given type of network for example over WiFi network or over 3G Cellular Data network.
If this is possible in Android, how would I code this requirement within the API Framework ? The ConnectivityManager enables an application to learn about available network connections and currently categorises them as either TYPE_WIFI or TYPE_MOBILE.
There is a member function in the ConnectivityManager class called requestRouteToHost(int,int) [url] which "Ensure that a network route exists to deliver traffic to the specified host via the specified network interface. An attempt to add a route that already exists is ignored, but treated as successful." Sounds like this would install an IP routing table entry to reach a given host via a specified network interface type (WiFi or Mobile). After calling this would it be sufficient for an application to open a socket and connect to the desired destination address ?
Or perhaps the application needs to bind() a socket to a local address of a network interface of the desired type (WiFi or Mobile) Or by setting a socket-level socket option of SO_DONTROUTE ?
I have had my Sony Ericsson Experia X10 for 4 months now and are happy with it although I seem to be continuously charging the battery? I haven't really looked at that many Android apps but I can't find a decent office type program similar to Microsoft Office or Open office to use excel, or similar office documents whilst I'm away from my laptop? Also are there any Krazy kiwis living out there using the great Android networks living in the UK, or even better in Bristol? I would love to hear from you soon

View 2 Replies View RelatedI am having this error since last two weeks "Your SIM does not allow connection to this network." I have tried everything to the best of my knowledge:
- Reset Phone (Soft & Factory Settings both)
- Rooted Phone
- AnyCut application to reset Radio
- Updated radio to 63.18.55.06JU_6.35.09.26-signed
I want to check that the network connection is alive on the phone from program but when i try to run this code
Code:
private boolean isOnline() {
ConnectivityManager cm = (ConnectivityManager) getSystemService(Context.CONNECTIVITY_SERVICE);
NetworkInfo netInfo = cm.getActiveNetworkInfo();
if (netInfo != null && netInfo.isConnectedOrConnecting()) {
return true;
}
return false;
}
I get the message "Sorry 'Appname' is stopped unexpectedly. Try again".I might have to search the solution elsewhere, i added permissions for network, run the application and got the same error but when i tried to start it from the menu it said application not installed.
I am developing an Android application and I would like to setup a tcp/ip type of connection between two Android phones using the 3G/Edge network. My test version will establish a connection if I have both phones on a lan using wifi but when I use T-Mobile's network a connection is not established. Could this issue be a port or ip address?

Does anyone know if I activate the Wifi connection it trumps the carrier network connection? In other words, if the Wifi connection is active (assuming i have a signal) and my carrier signal is also active, and I want to stream some audio--which pipe does the phone use to bring in the audio?
View 11 Replies View RelatedAfter reading the forums and changing settings and doing a few battery cycles, I had been getting really good battery life of at least two days on medium usage and 3 days on light with my connection not having any real issues. Then, 2 days ago I installed weatherbug and beautiful widgets. While I enjoy both, it seems like my network connection goes down fairly often now and I need to turn on wifi to check email or do anything else web related. Has anyone else lost their network connection and been able to narrow down the cause? I'm hoping it's not one of these two, but I can't imagine what else it would be.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI got my HTC Hero the other day and am very very happy with it. The only problem is that I cannot connect to the internet through "Mobile Network". I am on a "3" contract and I am able to access "my 3" which is where I can look at my account, look at my last bill, check my usage, etc. I can also connect to 3 - Home - that loads fine. But any other website (google, bbc, facebook, etc.) will not load - it just times out after a while.
It seams obvious to me that this is an issue with my account on 3. I don't know how many hours I've been on the phone to these guys. I have gone through all the settings with them, more than twice - replaced my SIM card and tried my SIM in another phone. So Three are now looking into it and have passed my issue onto the network's team, now they said that it may take up to 21 days for someone to get back to me!
I need to make HTTP request on Android using GSM connection, not Wifi. My current solution is to disconnect from all wi-fi connections and perform a request. Is there any better solution? I could not find any relevant methods in the API (I looked in package org.apache.http, but it seems it is completely unaware of what type of connection should be used).
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm working on some data transmission program and current it works alright on WIFI connection.
However, I understand that if I am in an environment where there are both 3G and WIFI coverage... the phone will (by default) be turned onto the WIFI network connection.
However, if for some reasons, I wish to be connected directly to 3G (e.g. 3G is more stable in public WIFI area).... is it possible to do so programatically on the Android phone? If i'm not wrong, it's possible using the ConnectionManager API, am I right?
May i ask if anyone has done something like that and don't mind sharing the code snippets to do so , or point me to the right direction for this?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI alternate between two wifi networks on my HTC Desire running Android 2.2 ( I think!)On one network I need to specify the network IP/subnet/Gateway and so on, on the other network I can use DHCP.Is there any way to tell Android that whenever I connect to one wifi network it should use the static IP and on the other it should get an IP automatically?I am forever going into advanced wifi settings and changing them back and forth. I'd love for my phone to remember the settings used on each wifi profile.
