I would like to connect an arduino uno + arduino Wi Fi shield with my android mobile directly... i would really appreciate it if someone could help me
Hi,
Are you asking to setup a peer-to-peer connection with your phone? I understand this feature became standard in Android ICS as "Wifi Direct" so it will be possible in many devices with Android 4.0 or younger. I've read that it's not universally supported however (perhaps a hardware limitation) so you may still find a challenge depending on your phone, and especially if you're using an older Android version.
If it's a genuine WiFi shield I don't know that it currently supports adhoc mode in the Arduino libraries. I haven't tried one so that situation might have changed recently. If not, and you're needing something right away, the WiFly products based on the Roving Networks chips do support adhoc peer-to-peer networking so could be a quicker fix for you.
Cheers ! Geoff

problem solved @ not_found
AVR32 Studio 2.6 can be used along with its tools to update both the firmwares
1.HDG104 WiFi module firmware inside the dataflash.
2. WiFi shield firmware on the AT32UC3A1256.
Thank you Lauren Pan
