I guess I shouldve made the thread on this, since ive posted it half a dozen times..(thanks for the info and links gten, over in EPIC Threads)... this is waaaaaaay easier than you guys are making it.. this info has been around several weeks atleast...

1.boot into ANdroid
2.take the (attached) wpa_supplicant file (no file extentions) and copy/paste it into Sys/bin using Root Explorer or Android Mate...
3.DOne!

may have to restart Android for it to take effect...

much more simple!!!!!

**backup exisiting wpa_supplicant before pasting over the new one**

Do you have a link to the threads you got this from?

How does this work for you? I'm getting the same results as with the wpa_supplicant I linked to on XDA, though interestingly, this isn't the same wpa_supplicant file. They both are modified wpa_supplicant files that can connect to ad-hoc mode networks, and connect for me to WEP, but aren't able to resolve DNS.

i guess im not trying to do this with real internet and routers, so yeah.. i guess i can see why it may not do all of it..its really just to enable adhoc networks... but if they use WEP, it works.. i was just hoping itd work all around lol

Try
Code:

su
and do it again. You need to be root.

With that said, the app "wifi-ace" I've heard does it much easier. I've never tried it, find it on the Market. WEP is terribly insecure, and I would not recommend using it.

I am using Samsung Galaxy POP. Googling for 4 days. 15-16 Hours per day. Also tried this. But unfortunately failed.

Please help me out. It will be a great help.

What does this have to do with the RHOD/TP2? This issue is specific to our build/phone, it doesn't have anything to do with native Android devices. Native Android devices *should* handle WEP no problem.

Re: [HOWTO] Rhodium, WEP, and You
 
Why on earth are you guys still using WEP??!!

I can hack any WEP "protected" network and gain access within 10 minutes. I can then use your discovered WEP keys to decrypt and sniff all your clients' network traffic.

You sure you still wanna use WEP?

Re: [HOWTO] Rhodium, WEP, and You
 
screw WEP,

Open is the ONLY way to go!

(then again, the router i have in mind has dual radios, hide one, open the other, HA!)


EDIT: on a SERIOUS note however on WEP, I have worked on MANY routers that simply do not have enough power(literally) or processing power to use WPA+/WPA2... its sad... but as long as you have a router from the last 2-3 years you should be fine... i had to give up an old Linksys tho... couldn't handle 3 PC's on WPA2...
