ad-hoc

[picard_MK]

last week I boght the S4 and that day he detected my ad-hoc network
few days after, the phone asked for update and after it the ad-hoc networks were not there anymore.. what happened?

it is really frustrating that 600 Euro phone does not have pass through internet and cannot connect to ad-hoc networks

Are you sure? As I understand it, Android's weakness has always been not being able to connect to ad-hoc networks...

its no weakness, it was working.. even it had button enable/disable ad-hoc . Maybe they intentionally block it ?!?!

I've had an OG MotoDroid, a Galaxy S2, Galaxy Note 2, Galaxy S4 and none of them were ever able to connect to ad-hoc networks (no setting for that, either...). All my phones have been carrier-branded except for the Note 2, which was a factory-unlocked version, but still with no option for that...
