Hi Joshua, thanks for an awesome plugin. I wish I had an iPhone, but your plugin makes it tolerable.

Hit this kpanic today, first time after months of use. Thought you might be interested in it though. From time-to-time, I need to switch things off with AT&T LTE to get data flowing, but this time it got wacky.

Awesome piece of code here. Using release 7 of HoRNDIS, I have a Nexus 4 with Cyanogenmod (Android 4.4.4) successfully configured in a "USB reverse-tether" configuration so my USB-connected phone gets network access through the wifi on a MacBook running OS X Mavericks (10.9.5).

I tried the same USB reverse-tether configuration on a MacBook Pro running 10.10.5 and release 7, but have been unable to replicate the success I had with OS X 10.9.5. In Console.app on the 10.10.5 machine I see:

If I try to do a "normal" tether from the laptop through the phone, that seems to work fine: the "Nexus 4" shows up as "Connected" in the Network preference pane and I can ping from the phone to the laptop and back. Only when I then go to the Sharing preference pane and try to enable "Internet Sharing" from "Wi-Fi" to "Nexus 4" do things go south.

I was following http://www.androidjunkies.com/how-to-use-internet-via-usb-reverse-tethering-linux-and-mac-ver/ and when I run "netcfg usb0 dhcp" it eventually times out. I tried manually setting the usb0 interface on the phone to 192.168.2.2 (along with a default route) but still couldn't ping through.

Has anyone else encountered this behavior?

Okay, we left things with nothing working here.

Next step(s)?

I want to report that installing driver under sierra works. It shows in System Preferences -> Network as
"Multifunction Composite Gadget" but when I try to share connection to my Udoo Neo Full board it does not work. My sharing is Wifi to "Multifunction Composite Gadget".

Here is output from Console filtered on NDIS with sharing disabled

One thing is that I can ssh to my Udoo Neo board from my mac just fine. As soon sharing is enabled I can't ssh and my en9 interface on my Mac is never activated.

Here is output from Mac Console app after:

1. sharing was enabled
2. On Udoo board en9 was set to dhcp on boot

When running Yosemite, frequently when I toggle USB tethering my computer turns off. Not sure if there's any more info I can provide or if this is a known issue.

Thanks,
John

Mac running Lion, HTC EVO 4g on Sprint. The install went fine but trying to connect I get a Sprint popup about not having Hotspot as part of my plan.

Is this just not an option for me being on Sprint?

I'm just getting started with Android and a Mac, and installed HoRNDIS. It worked for tethering with no problem immediately.

Next I installed Android File Transfer on my Mac: http://www.android.com/filetransfer . Now the File Transfer dialog pops up and the network settings says my phone is not connected.

This is on a brand new Nexus 4 with Android 4.2.2 and Mac OS X 10.8.2.

I tried removing File Transfer and reinstalling HoRNDIS and it no longer can detect my Nexus.

I use ASUS Zenfone 2 ZE551ML.
After connecting about 30 mins. Zenfone 2 will be hang up and reboot.

Bug report from @gwillen -- panic in HoRNDIS with flaky MicroUSB cable. Surrounding disassembly:

(crash was at 0x285f).

Appropriate C:

outbufs[poolIndx].mdp->setLength(pktlen + sizeof *hdr);

Looks like outbufs[poolIndx].mdp either had not been initialized or was being torn down at the time. ::allocateResources() shows up in ::enable(), and ::releaseResources() in ::disable(); I suppose that if the output queue was in another thread, it could have already kicked something off if stop() and flush() are not synchronous?

The sloppy answer would be to just globally serialize (maybe rwlock?) around destruction.

One day.

Hi, i'm trying to use HoRNDIS rel7 on my mbp w 10.10.1 to connect to the network created by a linux embedded board, Arietta G25 (http://www.acmesystems.it/arietta).
I installed the pkg with no errors but when I connect the board no interface is shown in OSX networking panel. dmesg and system doesn not show any sign of HoRNDIS being alive, so i tried using KEXT Wizard and I noticed that HoRNDIS Kext is not loaded by OSX at all. Any suggestion? Thanks in advace for support.

I should shell out to Cupertino for a code signing key, and install signed extensions on 10.9+.

Please provide a method for financial awesomeness acknowledgment of this tool.

Flattr or paypal would server well.

After updating to Yosemite (10.10.1) when internet sharing is enabled for Beaglebone Black interface the network interface never comes online.

I do not believe there seems to be any other issue present, but HoRNDIS completely spams my console and makes it near impossible to debug anything. My Console always is filled with the following, and usually only the following:

4/24/15 20:32:12.000 kernel[0]: HoRNDIS: outputPacket: waiting for buffer...
4/24/15 20:32:12.000 kernel[0]: HoRNDIS: outputPacket: waiting for buffer...

4/24/15 20:32:12.000 kernel[0]: *** kernel exceeded 500 log message per second limit - remaining messages this second discarded ***

There are hundreds of thousands of these messages in my Console for an unknown reason. I am unfortunately stuck to tethering to my phone for the time being for internet, but everything performs fine otherwise.

OS: Mac OS X 10.10.2
Phone: HTC One M7

After a three year tenure of maintaining HoRNDIS, it's become clear that I no longer have the time or energy to give HoRNDIS the attention that it deserves -- after all, I only managed to squeeze out a 10.11 release some months after 10.12 was released. The burden of doing user support and responding to people for whom the driver does not work with technical advice (or, at the very least, with a modicum of compassion...) has put me down the road to open-source burnout, and I need to take a break.

So, I'm looking for someone who is willing to take over the torch of maintainership for HoRNDIS. Do you know someone who would like an opportunity to use their skills to contribute to the community? Are you that person? Please feel free to send me an e-mail, or comment here.

Installed successfully (according to wizard), but when I connect my Android device and enable USB tethering, the mac simply doesn't do anything. No new connection appears in Network / connections.

I'm using OS X 10.10.3 (macbook air) and a Samsung S6. Any suggestions on how to debug?

Hi,

Noted that few phones (One Plus Two, Samsung Galaxy Grand Prime) get different en port number on tethering.
For eg, first time it get tethered, it will get en5, then again if it is tethered, it will get assigned as en6.
After a series of tethering, it will be like en2342 .etc.

I am unable to get Bonjour/Zeroconf to work over the HoRNDIS interface. Bonjour works on Windows RNDIS , but services being broadcast are not detected when using HoRNDIS. Does the HorDIS driver support multicast DNS?

Hi,

First, thanks a lot for the great work, been using your extension for two years now and it's a great tool I can't live without.
Though, since I use it on my macBookPro, I'm having the same behavior that is described on this closed file :
#40
(same message repeated n times for instance "22/07/2015 11:47:28,000 kernel[0]: HoRNDIS: outputPacket: waiting for buffer..." and also "22/07/2015 11:47:28,000 kernel[0]: HoRNDIS: outputPacket: timed out waiting for buffer")
but with a regular macBook Pro with regular Mavericks 10.9.5.
Plus that each time the console start to be spammed, the connection is timing out and I have to stop and start again the usb tethering on my phone to get my connection back to life. Some websites are presumably more likely to cause the issue than others but in fact it can happen while loading any website if I surf quickly for instance.
It makes the tool nearly unusable.
My phone is a Zenfone Asus under Lollipop 5.0.1
I added a list of possibly useful extensions and information at the end of this message, but tell me if you need any more information (I'm not used to github reporting, so just tell me what is the most accurate to do and report and I'll do)
And maybe I missed something in your manuals, so just tell me and I will apologize quickly ;).

Best regards and keep up.

The driver works nicely but it drains battery as the device gets charging while plugging in. Is there a way to prohibit charging within the kext?

I'm hoping this is a good place to post about this. I'm running OS X 10.10 with what should be the latest build of HoRNDIS while my BBB is running the latest Debian build. I'm in college, and the only way I seem to be able to SSH into my beagle bone is when I'm connected to our school wifi, which is protected with 802.1x authentication, so I get no internet from the beagle bone. If I connect to any other network, "Network" under system preferences shows the beagle bone black is not connected and has no IP address; the school network is the only one where DHCP seems able to assign it one. If I set a static IP on any other network, SSHing just hangs and it ends up terminating with a timeout error. I'm pulling my hair out, over here!

If I execute "setprop sys.config.usb rndis" on my Android phone while an SD card is in the card reader of my MacBook Air, OS X shows the message, that the SD card was not properly unmounted. Also the tethering connection does not work then. Sometimes it works first, but disconnects after a short time.

Without the SD card inserted tethering works fine most of the time. Inserting the SD card when the tethering connection was already established, makes no problems.

The MacBook Air is a 13" mid 2011 with OS X 10.9.2. The SD card is a PNY StorEDGE 128GB. The phone is a Fairphone with Android 4.2.2 (Fairphone OS 1.1 Caju).

Any idea what's going on there?

This helps so that we know when you have updated the binary package :)

Hi,

I'm really happy with this driver which works with my phone.
To stock work/unwork information from users, I would propose have wiki page on this repo.

Cheers!

HoRNDIS-rel8.pkg OS X 10.11.5 (15F34)

Might this have something to do with "enhanced" security in El Capitan?

Tethering error with Mac 10.7.5 and Android 4.0.4

MacBook Pro 13" with OS X 10.7.5
Droid Razr with Android 4.0.4
Verizon with mobile hotspot and I believe I had tethering working on a Windows laptop before.

Steps:

1. Installed HoRNDIS and rebooted (tried install/reboot again just to be sure)
2. Plugged in my phone via USB
3. Enabled USB tethering and it says "tethering error" on the phone

(I tried enabling it twice on the phone just to be sure)

com.joshuawise.kexts.HoRNDIS did load automatically
I do see the addition of an USB Modem and XT912 in the Network preferences on the Mac.

First of all: I don't know whether this is a HoRNDIS issue at all. There's also some vendor specific syncing software (MotoCast) installed on my system. But I decided to try my luck here, anyway.

When I first insatlled HoRNDIS and rebooted my computer, everything worked finde. My phone appeared in the Networking Preferences panel and I got a working Internet connection.
But my phone appeared there twice, as "MB526" and as "MotMobile", MB526 beeing the connection that actually did something. So I decided to delete MotMobile and from thereon everything stopped working. The phone keeps showing up in the panel and correctly shows if there is a USB cable connection or not, but seems unable to get a connection to the Internet.

And I still can't get things to work again, even after deleting /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/NetworkInterfaces.plist and /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/preferences.plist and setting everything up from scratch.
One thing I keep noticing: when I rebuild my kernel extensions cache, the system complains about HoRNDIS not beeing signed by a trusted developer but seems to load it anyway.

unplugging my phone:

28.10.14 12:07:52,417 MotoHelperDaemon[378]: REMOVAL:PID: 0x41d6 model: MB526 

First off, thanks for the great software. For me, HoRNDIS is not creating a new network adaptor even though the phone is set to tether. This appears to be due to some sort of link error in the kext, which I can reproduce by manually loading the kext using kextload. That results in the following error in the system log:

22/09/2014 12:14:04 com.apple.kextd[10] Failed to load /Library/Extensions/HoRNDIS.kext - (libkern/kext) link error.

Would myself and the other Snow Leopard user(s) who may have the problem be better off with an older version?

Many thanks,

I have S2 with Android 2.3.6 Gingerbread. USB tethering works fine with Windows.

Machine : MacBook Air 2011 13"
OS X version : 10.7.5
HoRNDIS pkg : HoRNDIS-rel2.pkg

The driver doesn't load startup, so I load it with kextload.
When I plug it in, it appears as a Modem in Network Preferences (as before).

I attached the log files from kernel.log and USB Prober below.
Thanks a lot.

For reasons I don't entirely understand (and a brief rummage through I/O Kit (shudder) didn't enlighten me) it appears that the enXX enumeration issue is related to MAC addresses changing. I'll guess it's something related to SystemConfiguration management that forces enumeration of a new device because it's not been seen before.

Allow me to demonstrate.

1. Tether a phone.
2. Do ioreg -l | grep IOMACAddress > snap.a
3. Untether the phone. I opt to simply unplug it (yes, yes, it could panic, I know, but 99 times out of 100 it doesn't) to make sure it's nicely forgotten about.
4. Tether the phone.
5. Do ioreg -l | grep IOMACAddress > snap.b
6. diff -u snap.a snap.b

I've deliberately left the MAC addresses that the interface uses unmangled to demonstrate that they are so different, and also because they're basically transient LAAs.

 --- snap.a  2014-03-07 14:04:12.000000000 +1100
 +++ snap.b  2014-03-07 14:04:40.000000000 +1100

That's not the only place; in the hundred-odd examples I have in NetworkInterfaces.plist, the IOMacAddress data changes.

I haven't checked this on any other platforms or with other phones, but I suspect this is where the issue is coming from.

There are reports that I broke installation of the unsigned driver in rel6. I should look into this.

Hello!

First of all, thanks for HoRNDIS! I used it a few times with my HTC Desire and it worked nicely.

Recently I upgraded to a Samsung Galaxy S3 Mini. Today I tried using HoRNDIS (release 2) with it, but it seemed not to detect my phone. I saw on the website that there was a new version available, so I deleted the android network interface, deleted the HoRNDIS kext, installed HoRNDIS release 4 and restarted.

Whis this release, using dmesg I can see that HoRNDIS detects the phone when I connect it to the USB port and activate USB tethering, but no network adapter is created in network preferences so I'm not able to use the ISB tethering. Do you know of a way I can create this network adapter? I'm using Snow Leopard, 10.6.8, with 64-bit kernel.

Thanks!

When connecting an Android phone to a Macbook, it will only charge at 500 mA. When connecting an Apple iPhone, it will charge at 900 mA or even 2100 mA on a USB port.

Is it possible to make OS X (Yosemite) provide extra current to a phone when connected using HoRNDIS? That way I can charge the phone much more quickly while tethering with USB.

Running OS X 10.8.4

Installed rel4 version.

I had an issue with my Beaglebone Black, I then uninstalled the kext file and removed the network devices.

After reinstalling the package, my device is no longer detected and the network devices aren't added in.

I installed HoRNDIS rel8pre2 on my Mac running OS X 10.11.5 and it worked like a charm with the first phone that I connected. Today I connected a second phone and while I am able to connect to the Internet without any problem, the speed is miserably slow. The 4G connection should be able to deliver around 35 Mbps (and does so when tethered to a Windows PC) but I only get a measly 2 Mbps or so. I dug around a bit in my Network Preferences and see that the previous phone connected as "LS-5013" whereas the one that is giving me issues is connecting as "Spreadtrum".

Any ideas on how I may be able to get the new phone deliver the speeds that it should would be most welcome!

Devices like Droid RAZR, which have a device class of 0/0/0 (rather than 224/0/0), will not work, since currently we match on a device class of 224/0/0. We should match on an interface class to make sure we get what we want; if we do that, then we can match on the more specific interface class, as well, to avoid picking up CDC devices.

Subj: Tethering error with Mac 10.7.5 and Android 4.0.4

• MacBook Pro 13" with OS X 10.7.5
• Droid Razr with Android 4.0.4
• Verizon with mobile hotspot and I believe I had tethering working on a Windows laptop before.

Steps:

1. Installed HoRNDIS and rebooted (tried install/reboot again just to be sure)
2. Plugged in my phone via USB
3. Enabled USB tethering and it says "tethering error" on the phone

• There are also no changes in the Network preferences on the Mac

Via kextstat I saw it wasn't loaded so I manually loaded it:

sudo kextload /System/Library/Extensions/HoRNDIS.kext

Tried to tether again and noticed these errors in kernel.log:

Nov 14 19:05:28 Robs-MacBook-Pro kernel[0]: 0 1 AppleUSBCDCACMData: start - Find CDC driver for ACM data interface failed
Nov 14 19:05:28 Robs-MacBook-Pro kernel[0]: 0 1 AppleUSBCDCECMData: start - Find CDC driver for ECM data interface failed

was: Mac OS X 10.6.8 Install issues - "no code for running kernel's architecture"

Hi, I downloaded the HoRNDIS-rel1.pkg installer and ran it, and it appeared to work, but my Mac didn't detect my phone when I plugged it in, even after rebooting. I fired up console.app and searched for "horndis" and found this:

I plugged in the phone at the last step of the install when it had instructions up, so I re-ran the installer with the phone disconnected the entire time and got this:

I don't think there's anything really special about my mac - it's a 2010 model with an i7 - it should run i386 code just fine. So I'm not sure what to make of that error.

The phone is a rooted Samsung Galaxy S III running Clean Rom (basically stock but without all the trials and Verizon crap). It has a USB Tethering checkbox in the menu and it puts a "USB Tethering, Tap to configure" line in the Ongoing section of my top pull-down menu.

Any ideas?

please tell me how do for auto build a new connect by code when android device open USB tethering? thanks very mach

first of all, thanks for horndis, it's great!

i have a minor feature request: it'd be nice if it showed a menu bar icon when it's connected, even if only to show that it's working.

thanks in advance!

Hi there!

First of all, I really would like to thank you for creating this amazing driver.

However, unfortunately, I don't think installing the latest rel7 actually does anything to my Mac.

Basically, I installed the package, plugged in my phone, turned on USB tethering and nothing happened. No new connection showed up in System Preference - Network.

My Mac is running Yosemite 10.10.3, and my phone is a Nexus 6 that runs Android 5.1.1 AOSP (rooted) w/ stock kernel.

I would like to give more logs or debugging info, but I'm really not sure what's going on.

Thanks!

It would be nice if we can install HoRNDIS with homebrew

It appears the phone is connected but I'm not getting any data.
I have tried a variety of things like plugging and unplugging the phone, rebooting the mac etc. No dice.

Is there a special order to installing this? Plug phone in then install. or install then plug in?

My setup:
MacBookAir 2013 (OSX 10.8.5)
Samsung Galaxy S4 (Google Play Edition 4.3)

When I connect Desire S to my Retina MacBook Pro running OS X 10.8.2, it doesn't get detected as a network device, as if driver wasn't installed. USB probe output follows

First, thanks ever so much for the driver. Not sure that this is a HoRNDIS specific problem.

Setup: OS X 10.10.1 installed HoRNDIS rel7 used with a Nexus 5 running Lollipop (5.0).

Some combination of this software (all have been updated to the latest version in the past few days), is now causing configd to signal a steady stream of network change events as appended log evidences. As the network gets reconfigured, packets are delayed for a short time, which both causes a bit of stutter for connectivity and most annoyingly causes my VPN client to reconnect. If I connect to the same phone over a wireless hotspot, I don't observe the same sort of network hiccups.
