The Serval Mesh
Mobile phones normally can't be used when cellular networks fail, for example during a disaster. This means that millions of vulnerable people around the world are deprived of the ability to communicate, when they need it most.
We have spent the past six years working with the New Zealand Red Cross to create a solution. We call it the Serval Mesh, and it is free software that allows smart-phones to communicate, even in the face of catastrophic failure of cellular networks.
It works by using your phone's Wi-Fi & bluetooth to communicate with other phones in your vicinity. Or even by forming impromptu networks consisting only of mobile phones. Mesh communications is an appropriate technology for complementing cellular networks. Think of it like two-way radio or CB radio that has been propelled into the 21st century. For long-range communications you will still need to make use of cellular or fixed telephone networks
or the internet.
This software allows you to easily make private phone calls, send secure text messages and share files in caves, in subways, in the Outback, in Australia or Africa, in Europe or the United States -- even when cellular networks fail or are unavailable.
You can also keep using your existing phone number on the mesh, which is really important in a disaster when people are trying to get back in contact with each other.
Our software:
* Is completely open and open-source; free for all
* Can be carried and activated in seconds by those who need it when it is needed
* Is carrier independent
* Can be installed during an emergency from only one phone
* Is distributed in nature making the network resilient
* Can use your existing phone number
* Encrypts mesh phone calls and mesh text messages by default
* Can distribute pictures, videos and any other files

Great app. Would do a fantastic job at protests or wherever the communications fell. It should be updated to the material design though. The actual one left me a bit puzzled at first sight. It should be more intuitive using it. Overall it's a great idea but it needs to be perfected

It works well on my Samsung s5 & s7 Edge phones, plus an Alps chinese phablet. All without rooting! Great idea in case you are out of network range and need to communicate in the near range. I liked the concept of putting a spare phone up a tree to increase coverage. Instant repeater!!

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.

Calls are surprisingly clear and low letency on direct connection, WiFi or Bluetooth, but there's no packet flow control so talk slow to avoid losing syllables when the buffer plays catch-up.

Excellent idea This is a great idea, and my phone is rooted so it works. Problem is finding others that are willing or able to root their phones. Wish creating an adhoc network didn't require this. Using a wifi router works, but using hotspot network sorta does although sometimes one caller can't hear the other.

Great idea Works well. I only was able to test it because there's not anyone around me with the app. But it works, and in a pinch that's all you'd need.

Like A Telco Darknet Pretty cool :) A telco darknet. I was able to use an Evo 4G and a Droid 1 to mesh and make a call between them. However when I introduced a third device (HTC Hero) into the mix all 3 devices didn't want to stay meshed up. Sometimes 2 would stay meshed and the other device wouldn't join up. The best ...

Good Stuff I would have to say that this is good stuff. It works on my Samsung Galaxy Nexus running stock Android 4.1.2 and both of my Motorola Backflip's running cyanogenmod 7.1.0. It works better on my Motorola Backflip's then on my Samsung Galaxy Nexus. The only problem I have is that I have to do a force s...

Donate button required! This project is one of the most promising ones I've ever seen! :-P I can't wait to see the new version; I'd only like the gateway interface to be simpler (or more documented)... and then I'll be able to convert all of my friends to mesh networks! :-P

Welcome to the future! Decentralized, democratic communications application. I look forward to it's widespread use, and seeing base stations with large antennas to help establish permanent MeshNet networks.

At first, all but bricked my phone Sorry, bro, but this app has all but bricked my stock Droid 4. When the app was trying to figure out how to drive the wifi, the phone rebooted and ever since, will crash almost all the programs on my phone, eventually crashing the OS and forcing the phone to reboot. After a hard reboot, it seemed ...

Slight improvement It's getting past the start up page for me now which is better than the last version, it didn't do anything. But now it's causing my phone to restart randomly but invariably quickly when I run it. Samsung galaxy I9k 2.3 unrooted

Not working on galaxy S3 (unrooted, ICS) Hi, the app installs, it seems to create a network (i've got the green sign on), but I never can see other batphones around (even though other people are running the app). And then, when I try to place a call the app never shows me the option to place a "mesh" call.

Haven't been able to make a call with it But one thing I do notice, is that when I update other unrelated apps on my phone update, Serval requests root access, which worries me. Why are you snooping on my phone?

Best when underground works great on my nexus one, the trick is to choose the chipset as "generic" instead of "nexusone"
