I am using ubuntu 15.10 and android 4.0.4. I googled a lot how to reverse tether from ubuntu to android but couldn't find any reasonable answers. So how can i share my ethernet connection on my ubuntu to android? i know i should create a new wifi hotspot from my pc and set it to "shared to other devices" but the wifi hotspot is NOT visible in my android phone! Also creating a wireless network with setting "infrastructure" to "ap" mode did not work for me.
Thank you for your answers!
Checkout hostapd.
This documentation for Ubuntu looks like it'd get you going, but you'll probably have to make a few tweaks, like wlan0 will be eth0. wlan1 would be the wireless adapter that is broadcasting to your phone.

suddenly it started giving me no notification any time i plug it into any PC. I've used different USB cables,turned on my USB debugging mode,restored the factory settings, updated the phone software. I don't know what else to do. I really need help here
Browse to your sdk on studio terminal and type adb devices and check if it shows.
If not try adb killall-server and adb start-server otherwise try updating usb driver for your phone
If you have a Samsung Phone, try installing Samsung Kies on your PC. That should include all drivers.

Could you please help me: is it possible to set proxy settings in Android (especially in Chrome)? I have to change IP on Android during the testing. Or there is some soft which can help me to solve this issue...
Found one solution for WIFI (works for Android 4.3, 4.4):
Connect to WIFI network (e.g. 'Alex')
Settings->WIFI
Long tap on connected network's name (e.g. on 'Alex')
Modify network config-> Show advanced options
Set proxy settings

I have a Raspberry Pi running Android 3.1 and its connected to the internet using a Ethernet wired connection. How do I set proxy to use wired connection?
You should be able to use this: (your proxy is mynetworkproxy:9000)
setprop global_http_proxy_host mynetworkproxy
setprop global_http_proxy_port 9000
After doing an adb shell to get access to the device's console.
If that doesn't work and you have root access you can manually change the setting in the settings.db file. See here http://elinux.org/Android_Networking in the "Configuring a web proxy" section for more info.

I use HTC Explorer and I have created an ad-hoc network on my laptop. Although other laptops are easily able to connect to it, my mobile device is not even detecting the Wi-Fi.
How can I connect my mobile to the Wi-Fi hotspot on my laptop (running Windows 7)?
There is an alternative solution involving "Microsoft Virtual WiFi Miniport Adapter":
netsh wlan set hostednetwork mode=allow ssid=NAME key=PASSWORD
netsh wlan stop hostednetwork
netsh wlan start hostednetwork
For additional details and troubleshooting see this post on XDA-developers:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s2/general/guide-alternate-to-ad-hoc-wi-fi-network-t1924911
Ad Hoc networks are not supported natively by Android devices, unless you get your device rooted and make some tricks in the underlying linux system.
There are a lot of pages talking about that:

In android, is it possible to limit the the number of the devices that are connected to the phone via tethering?
The limit by the OS is 10 , is there a way we can reduce this value through an app ??
Or is there a way to restrict the bandwidth of the tethered connections?
thanks in advance
No and no, respectively. A custom build of the OS, installed via a modded ROM, presumably can do this.
Yes, you can by using third party Apps like WiFi Tether for Root Users. This apps will allow you to select which devices can use your mobile-data connection.
