    Why is there an error signing into my account on Google fit?

    I am SO GLAD I found this page, which confirms to me that the problem is at Google's server end and not with our phones. So it's just a matter of time I suppose. :p

    *** CONNECTING TO Adhoc WiFi WITH THE NEXUS 7 ***

    Is not that android couldn't handle adhoc, as said before, it's on purpose (by design)... and yeah, that sucks.

    *** CONNECTING TO Adhoc WiFi WITH THE NEXUS 7 ***

    That's provided your phone is an android one, but if your phone does not run on android then no such thing as the FoxFi work-around. So, besides the BlueVPN solution, has anyone come up with another alternative to tether with a non-android phone that has the ability to offer hot-spot (adhoc mode)?

    *** CONNECTING TO Adhoc WiFi WITH THE NEXUS 7 ***

    This is not an issue with the MeeGo platform, nor with the manufacturer Nokia. The issue is Android not allowing (by design) connections to adhoc WiFi out of the box (as usual, I suspect the phone companies have something to do with this). For a better explanation, I refer you to the post above...

    *** CONNECTING TO Adhoc WiFi WITH THE NEXUS 7 ***

    Trust me, if I decided to post here, is because I have exhausted all the suggestions that you saw in your quick research with google (as I said, the several versions of the wpa_supplicant file out there don't work with this new specific tablet. Also, what you saw in the playstore are apps to...

    *** CONNECTING TO Adhoc WiFi WITH THE NEXUS 7 ***

    It seems to me that your nexus phone is broadcasting a regular wifi signal, whereas my Nokia N9 broadcasts Adhoc wifi signal, which does require Android devices to be modified in order to be able to grab such signals. Please read carefully the explanation here and let me know if this finally...

    *** CONNECTING TO Adhoc WiFi WITH THE NEXUS 7 ***

    Um.. No. I have an unlocked phone and I have a data plan, and the phone came with this hotspot function that allows me to connect my laptop to the internet and use my phone as the "modem" (a mobile hotspot device). You said that I don't need to tweak anything in the Nexus 7 to be able to do...

    *** CONNECTING TO Adhoc WiFi WITH THE NEXUS 7 ***

    Hi all, I have one of those phones that have the ability to work as WiFi hotspot (adhoc), but as you all know, Android does not let us connect to any adhoc hotspot out of the box, you have to first root and unlock your tablet (which I've successfully done), and then do some tweaking. Problem...
