I havnt go through the whole thread yet, sorry if i repeat question

i found out that my x5 cannot detect wifi 802.11g..which i set-up using my laptop under the ad-hoc network..im using broadband, so I was trying to share my internet to the x5

but it can detect 802.11n, which i think is those normal signal send by a router..

anyone tried it?..

fully charged the phone until 12pm...explore a bit here and there on the phone, wake up at 7.15am..battery status:85%..display:lowest, switched off all connection, switched off all sound effect, switched off haptic feed back..not as bad as it seems...

to set-up an ad-hoc network, go to

control panel > network and sharing center > set up a connection or network (located on the left side bar for my case, vista)

select set up a wireless ad hoc (computer to computer) network, the description on what the network do is written there

create a network name (ssid), left the security type to be wpa2, secure the network with a password (make sure you turn on your wireless card)

select allow internet connection sharing, switch off firewall and antivirus if yours is very strong..

Go back to the network and sharing center windows, click on "connect to a network" located at the same side bar, scroll down and you can see that you're connected to the network you've just created, just move your mouse to the network name and the description will present, it will says that the radio type is 802.11g. look at other network that you can detect, most of them are 802.11n. (for my case)

before that, make sure that your internet are not from a router, because you need your wireless card to create a network, you're basically disconnecting from the internet to create it if you do the steps i've told you. it only works for those who use broadband (using usb), cable(LAN or dial-up). anything that doesnt occupy your wireless card. this is very useful to share interent when you go to your friend's house that still use cable.

go to your phone, wireless and networks. turn on wifi and you still cant detect it. you can also add wifi network with the same ssid and password. cant work either. so maybe there's something im missing out, or the phone cannot detect it. but it's already written in the websites that this phone can do it..are we scammed?..

anyway, from my reading the battery we're using is li-po battery, and this is what i get

1. there's no need to drain the battery or charge intensely. The reason people do this is because older batteries have what they call the memory effect. although we might need to do that to calibrate with the digital battery indicator.

2. for li-po battery, never drain out all the battery. i guess in normal operating condition, the phone would have tell you the battery is required to be charged, so be careful with what you guys do to your phone in order to extend the battery usage without charging

3. use the specified charger and do not overcharged. no need to worry as most of the modern charger have a timer, or some kind of system to cut off the charging once the battery is full..

and lastly, even if you've exhausted your battery, get a new one then..coorect me if im wrong..

i hv setup accordingly to your step above.. i can see "mytest" network appearing with "Waiting for users".. but I'm nt able to detect it thru my phone.
nt sure whether this is due to my notebook as it's a company notebook..  sad.gif

sad.gif i strongly think that the phone cannot detect it, or we need to modified something for it to work. because that's the exact step how i share internet when my friend come over with a laptop. maybe if you've extra laptop, you can try it out and see. if the laptop can detect it, but not the phone. then we need to question the manufacturer.

alright..will be back at night..see you guys..

LOL
x5 cannot compare to 2x
it's different level of phone
depend on your budget jor

I can afford 2x but since I'm only a college student, I wouldn't spend so much on a phone.

different people spend differently,

some people like to set budget as the basis, they set how much they're willing the spend first

some people like to buy the latest, and never change another phone until it can no longer be used

some people like to buy what's worth the money, eventhough it's not the super high tech ones, or even if it go over our budget. I think most of us here fall into this category, feels good when you know you spend each cent wisely..

Have internet connection in my PC..through USB modem

I want to share that connection to my phone, MEANS I want to have internet connection in my phone

there are only 3 logical way to this
- use wifi card
- use bluetooth
- use USB

WIFI card
-can intall connectify into my PC to share, create a hotspot (wont work because my WIFI card cannot broadcast hotpot signal)
-create Ad-Hoc network using pc (android phone cannot detect these signal without rooting it)

how about bluetooth and USB?..anyone have solution?..
