Comments on The Serval Mesh for Android

★★★★★ Great app, works quite well with wifi Bluetooth and hotspot, but ad hoc, when testing for compatibility, it says could not find root shell, but I have both root and busybox (installed to /system/bin). My device is an NVIDIA shield K1 running Android AOSP nougat.

★★★★★ I've used it, it works well, although it would be nice if you could copy and paste old messages. Install it BEFORE you have a disaster, obviously, but once you have it you can share it to other devices, it has instructions how.

★★★★★ If you guys can update this to where we can use proxy for data as seen on a youtube video, I can put this on a ham radio tower WiFi pinging through my neighborhood and get more people to test it. Sevier County Tennessee. I've so far tested it on: Galaxy Note 4, Nexus 6, 1plus 1, Galaxy Alpha no root, Moto Z Play no root, Galaxy S7 & Edge. all these listed are working

★★☆☆☆ Fyi Root is Required. Sadly cant risk mucking things up and bricking my phone just to test. Really want a mesh hotspot around the block.

★★☆☆☆ Sometimes back I was able to install it on android 2.3 phone & use it. But this time it does not install on an Android 5.02 lenovo, it did install on an old Samsung S3 but no mode of communication other than blue tooth worked & that only from a very short range. This app is useless for any purpose that it seems to be designed for.

★★☆☆☆ Hijacked and renamed my bluetooth connection. Now I can't connect to any other bluetooth devices. Can't figure out how to undo this mess without a factory reset of my phone.

★★☆☆☆ It is extremely crude. I could not mix Bluetooth mesh with normal WiFi internet.

★★☆☆☆ Funktioniert nicht Leider wird das Galaxy S3 nicht unterstützt... Auch das Sony Xperia Compact funktioniert nicht stabil
