Re: [Call for testing] Wi-Fi Hotspots (Internet tethering)

 

Hi folks, can't get this to work. I'm on a bq aquaris 4.5 with rc-proposed. Have followed the directions below. No menu in mobile settings for hotspot tethering, with or without wifi on. I'm using dual sim cards. Is this an issue?

Not sure if I should report a bug, or reflash my device - have had it writeable for some time and may have stuffed something up. Rest of the phone works well though...

Thanks.

Mitchell

try this:

as root, so use sudo -s

1) add-apt-repository ppa:ci-train-ppa-service/landing-046

2) vi /etc/apt/preferences.d/silo.pref


Package: *
Pin: release o=LP-PPA-ci-train-ppa-service-landing-046
Pin-Priority: 1002


3) apt-get update

4) apt-get install indicator-network qml-module-ubuntu-connectivity
libconnectivity-qt1 ubuntu-system-settings libsystemsettings1

at this moment, this installs:

indicator-network 0.5.2+15.04.20150722-0ubuntu1
qml-module-ubuntu-connectivity:armhf 0.5.2+15.04.20150722-0ubuntu1
libconnectivity-qt1:armhf 0.5.2+15.04.20150722-0ubuntu1
ubuntu-system-settings                  0.3+15.04.20150723-0ubuntu1
libsystemsettings1:armhf                0.3+15.04.20150723-0ubuntu1

5) reboot

After that, the menu shows up.
