I have usb tethering on my phone... I turned it on. How do I get it to work though on the computer? Thanks
Moved as not Android development.
Works fine for me running SL anda tiger server
I have Snow Leopard (and Win 7). With Cyanogen's ROM how do I get tethering working? Do I need to do anything on the computer to get the internet tethering working? Thanks
I'm on 10.6.2 running CM5.0.3.1 and I can't figure out how to get tethering to work. I enable tethering and connect it to my MacBook, but nothing happens. I go to network under preferences and I don't get any ethernet connections and no options.
Is there some driver I need to install? Does anybody have USB tethering working under Snow Leopard?
On my Windows 7 machine Windows automatically detected and installed the appropriate driver and I was good to go.

Had a search and found 1 or 2 things but they never worked for me. Anyway I have complied this driver for Windows XP so all you need to do is add it to your Internal Storage, plug it in to your computer copy it to your PC, then set your phone to internet sharing. When it moans that it dosn't know where the driver is, point it to them and it should work.
I just tested it on an XP machine and it worked so hopefully it will work for you.
If there is already a solution for this please let em know.

4.2.6 USB tethering
I downloaded the drivers but don't know where to put them. I think I'm not doing something right.
1. Plug in phone via USB (dont' have "Wireless tether for root users running")
2. settings / wireless controls/ "click" internt tethering
3. go to PC and wireless network connections, select G1Tether and click connect. it will not connect
is this a driver problem? do i need "wireless tether for root users" running?
help
thanks... vista and windows 7 has the drivers inbuilt but not for windows xp..
Driver works on Magic 32A with SuperD 1.5.1, WinXP SP2.
Thank you very, very much
Maciek.
Worked beautifully for me!
Worked great for me!
Thanks,

I cannot get these drivers to work. I'm using an xp machine and every time I turn on the usb tethering, it automatically installs drivers identified as "HTC remote ndis remote device" and it has a big yellow ! next to it. I tried pointing at your folder for the device wizard and it says it couldn't locate better drivers to install. What am I missing here?
I have the same issue with you, waiting for the solution.

Try tell it that you will select the driver manually. Then click the "Have Disk" button and point to the inf of this driver. That should install it regardless of what Device Manager thinks is the best drriver.
Been having trouble getting wired tether to work also. In device manager I had a yellow "!" sign on USB composite device, installed the driver from this thread and the caution sign disappeared - still no tethering though
I suppose I'll just have to make do with wireless tether.
when I point that file as the driver it tells me it isnt for that device.
Connect your phone, then when it says it has found new hardware but cant install it, go to the device manager, double click the and click reinstall driver.
Point the folder to where ever you saved the driver too and it should install.

Works
Worked for my Nexus 1 Cyanogen 5.0.5
Thanks to you for posting this and to the user who posted the info about vista and 7 having the driver already. I was scratching my head as to why this worked on my home laptop (vista) and not my work laptop (xp).
i got an old fossil
Windows 2000.....is this possible?
Thanks you! Something that finally works!
I have a question. My PC at work still has its normal LAN connection through a network card. Now I have this second connection through my G1. If I make a web request with Firefox, which connection will it use? Do I have to disable the LAN connection to guarantee that it uses the G1? Or is there someway to make Windows default to the G1 if it's attached, and use the LAN otherwise?
Works for USB tethering using Android 2.2 (Froyo) and Windows XP
Thanks for the driver. FYI I was able to use it with Android 2.2's built-in USB tethering and Windows XP SP3.
Unrooted Nexus One with stock Android 2.2 (Froyo)
this worked for me, thanks!
xp sp3+moto droid (rooted)+cm5.0.6.2

"all you need to do is add it to your Internal Storage" The file you posted is to get the driver on your computer working, right? Am I copying ANY file at all to the phone or?
So here's my difficulty. Wireless tethering works great. But I also like battery life. So I am trying to get the usb tethering to work. I have followed the directions on androids site, and no local area connection shows up. it just installs the Android ADB driver and that's it.
I have previously installed pdanet.. so that may be a stumbling block
The laptop is an EEE pc running XP
I'm guessing it could depend on the ROM your phone is running. I'm running CM7 and everything installed automatically and perfectly.
I am running the stock t-mobile rom. I do not expect it's a "phone" problem.
Hi,
It seems that I've searched everywhere and tried everything, but I'm unable to get USB tethering to work.
Please correct me if I'm wrong, but this is my understanding of how it should work between Windows 7 64bit and Typhoon's CM7 Android running on the HTC HD2:
Phone Side:
Wired tethering is already available as an option, so simply enable USB tethering by ticking Settings -> Wireless and network settings -> Tethering & portable hotspot -> USB tethering
Windows Side:
Install the correct ADB driver for the HTC HD2. Does this create a new network adapter? I'm assuming a internet connection starts automatically as soon as tethering is enabled on the phone (and this runs via the network adapter)
When I connect the phone via USB, windows is unable to automatically find a driver. Apparently windows already comes prepackaged with a RDNIS driver, but this doesn't seem to work. The phone shows up in device manager under "Other devices" and is listed as "ADB" with a yellow exclamation mark. Where do I find the correct driver to use, and what happens after I've installed the driver. Is it true that the process is automatic, or do I need to right click on the installed adapter and click connect?
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated,
Regards,

Hi guys. Would really appreciate some tips on this one.
Is nobody using USB tethering on Win7 64?

Hey. I haven't been able to get native USB teathering to work. U can use a app to make it work that seems to be the only way as of now. If you search my posts I posted the apk file.
Sent from my HTC HD2 using XDA Premium App
In the past I've had to search on google for the ADB driver but cannot remember where i found it since I couldnt find it again but a friend just brang their desire hd over and windows 7 found the driver straight away, do u know anyone who would borrow u their android device?
dunno if this helps
http://developer.android.com/sdk/win-usb.html
Thanks for the replies.
I've already installed the Google USB driver (from the developer site listed above). The phone shows up and the ADB driver is installed.
I've also tried installing the wired tethering apk from google apps. It is currently at version 1.4.
HOWEVER, I still don't understand how this is supposed to work as the ADB driver is not listed under networking devices. Surely you need a network driver to able to establish a connection. What am I not understanding?

Hey, just built a new PC for a friend and tried sharing my internet connection using easytether which didnt work because the pc didnt have the correct adb driver. My friend then installed HTC Sync (for her Desire HD) and windows found an adb driver in there. Now the native tethering & easytether on my phone works.
Now I'm not too sure if htc sync has ANYTHING to do with this, or if the driver was downloaded from her desire hd (usb was plugged in already) but I guess you could try downloading htc sync and see what happens.
hello, i got new problem, is there any chanse to use my PCs internet (it's not wireless!) on my android hd2 via USB cable ....
Yes, you can do reverse tethering (although I have never tried).
Reverse tethering works best, apparently, on ubuntu linux: http://blog.mycila.com/2010/06/reverse-usb-tethering-with-android-22.html
hey, thx for this, but i dont understand this, what is USB Tethering, setting the 'bridge' up, how to do this, can i have some ... 'details' pls )) .
Which step are you stuck on, and are you on linux?
well.... im not on Linux, im on Windows 7, anyway, i found out what is USBTethering, but when i check that (i have drivers installed from SDK) nothing heppens, i dont know what to do, i dont know how to 'bridge'
step 2:
Connect USB cable and activate USB Tethering. You should see on linux or windows a new network interface. ---> where the hell is 'new network interface' -.-

Hi,
Does your phone connect to pc when you plug in usb cable?
Does your pc have latest version of WMDC?
This contains the drivers for successful connection.
If (And only if) you're using a Desire HD rom then just plug in your USB cable, choose "Internet Pass-through", let windows install the drivers (W7), enjoy internet on your device.
But if you're using another rom, follow the other advices from our fine members
Well.... my phone is connected with cable, im using windows7 ... all drivers are installed i got HTC dream composite ADB interface in control panel in 'android phone' device detected. im trying to USB thetering...but problem is that i still dont have internet acces from my pc, to my phone. i installed wired tether via my VPN ... but still i dont know what to do ... can someone pls explain ....
even i wanted to know how to do this
i am using windows 7
my hd2 android(rom: angel death v1.4) gets connected with pc but in network and sharing centre it shows "no access to internet".
i am having ethernet connection on pc.
I can't seem to get USB tethering to work on my HD2 loaded with Android 2.3.4.
The hotspots work ok but everytime I plug in my phone via USB and choose tether USB, Windows 7 does not recognize it as a RNDIS device. It only sees it as a ADB device.
I tried to uninstall the drivers for ADB device and Install the RNDIS drivers for Windows 7 x32 but it does not recognize the driver for the device.
Is there a fix for this?
Thanks.

Same here - and am using CM7 nightly build. RNDIS device never gets detected (Win 7)...
RNDIS was removed from the EVO kernel by Markinus last year.
And all the main kernels we use for HD2 are based on Markinus' EVO kernel.
