I have a Realtek RTL8188FTV wifi adapter, but the official document says IT DOES NOT SUPPORT HOSTEDNETWORK (Access Point, AP Mode is NOT AVAILABLE), does AP mode reauires some special hardware that RTL8188FTV donesn't have or the software firmware on the flash of this chip didn't turn the AP feature on.

Not the WiFi or Bluetooth one. I was doing the internet sharing via reverse tethering to the device via USB, the iPhone should have a Mac Address specific to that interface.
I've checked ideviceinfo and that only provide me the Mac Address of WiFi and Bluetooth.
I do not believe you will find a MAC address of the USB interface when tethering to your computer. That is, USB interfaces do not have MAC addresses to begin with. Further, the computer does not connect to the phone via USB the same way it would connect via wifi, or connect to a switch. When the iPhone is connected to the computer via USB, it is like adding a new NIC to the computer, so effectively the MAC address on your computer will be the only MAC address you see between your phone and your computer. The wifi, cellular, or bluetooth MAC addresses will be used by your phone to connect to the "external" network, however your computer's MAC address will not be seen on those networks as your phone will perform NAT functions between the "external" network and your computer.
In order for adb to recognize my device LG G4 I needed to select USB tethering. With this setting on, I am unable to maintain a wifi connection. I am trying to do some testing with wifi and want to have access to the log.
I thought maybe I could use adb over wifi but I want to see logs for connecting and disconnecting to wifi, do once I disconnect from wifi I loose my log.
today a SmartEyrGlass arrived at the office and I am having trouble connecting it to the wifi to take pictures.
The manual just says:
Turn on wireless LAN on your smartphone.
And in the settings off the glass it only displays the MAC address of the device.
I looked online for a full manual, but I couldn't find any.
What do I need to do to take pictures?
It will automatically connect over wireless LAN when you start the Camera application.
For connection, initial pairing over bluetooth is enough. Device will switch to WLAN automatically when application needs it.
Start Camera and you will see it is starting to connect.
I have an iPhone running the iBeacons API, and it is transmitting a BLE Signal. Is there any way for my Mac to actually pick up the existance of this signal using dev tools such as Packet Logger or Bluetooth Explorer?
Thanks
You can use the Bluetooth Explorer. Under "Devices" you can find "Low Energy Devices", which is able to scan for LE devices, connect to them and write to them
I am pretty new to Linux so I apologize if I will ask some really simple stuff.
I am working on a custom board with SAM9G25 and Angstrom distribution as operating system.
The board as to act as a USB Device (Mass storage device), when will be connected to a Host computer. Right now I am simply enabling and removing the g_mass_storage module and the things are working fine.
In the final version, I need to manage the g_mass_storage module according to the connection and disconnection of a USB cable. I tought to use VBUS as an interrupt (also polling will be fine).
Here it comes my problem.
Since the VBUS GPIO is handled by the USB driver i cannot read it's status from userspace. I only see an interrupt count in /proc/interrupt.
I am asking if there is a way to get an interrupt (from the Driver) or to be able to read the VBUS GPIO value when the usb cable is connected/disconnected from the system.
I apreciate any kind of help.
I know this is a bit old, but I found the same problem, and found from userspace you can view the connection status from the udc sys class device. For example, on my architecture the status of USB can be viewed from:
/sys/class/udc/ci_hdrc.0/status
PC connection: configured
Power adapter: powered
Disconnected: not attached
I've read the AM335x architecture can be observed from:
/sys/class/udc/musb-hdrc.0.auto/current_speed
Best of luck
