The best you can do is turn your SDCard into a access point through a app. But no USB tethering over wifi.

I rooted my phone had wifi on and I was tethering it to my laptop via usb

sharing computers internet with phone?

Yo all!!
ok.. i have been trying to get my phone to connect Via HTC sync V2 and latest V3 but have been told that it will not work as we are not using Sence? (FroydVillain 1.5)
if so... i need a little help....
With HTC Sync (before Froyd..), i could get the phone to use the computers internet.
Is there any way of doing this without Sync?
Cheers all
Simple as that! You have FV 1. 5!!!! Just connect the usb cable and enable tethering under >setting >wireless connection, you can now use wireless or 3G with your pc... ;-)

Im confused why would anyone want to use the computers internet connection on a phone when they are tethered?
I can see wanting your computer to use 3G but not the other way around. Am i missing something something here ?

You're definitely missing something,... For people without unlimited data plans maybe?
Or maybe turn off the phone and use the computer?

yes i can see that aps will cost if you've got no data plan with a smart phone, i did have to abort a few auto updates when i was on holiday and being charged roaming rates and now routinely set them to off. If it was me I would look for the apk files from and load them from the sd card or failing that walk the streets looking for an open wifi
had a quick google and found this , hope it help the op

Not heard if it worked for anyone, so thought I'd bump this link again. It sounds like what you're after.

USB tether with EI22

Can anyone recommend a good usb tethering program for use with EI22. WiFi tether is not an option here.

Why not just use the Hotspot Hack?
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
Wired tether 1.4 works for me, except on linux - even though it appears that stock attempts to use rndis (dmesg on my linux box shows that it momentarily recognizes a rndis device), it doesn't work the same way that Rodderik's rndis support worked in his EC05 kernel... windows auto-detects it just fine, though

I'm a pretty big fan of EasyTether, I use it often since I'm stuck without Internet at home for awhile.

Hotspot hack lets you use usb? Figured it was wifi only.

Yep and its built into the settings under wireless networks, tethering

Hotspot hack isn't as nice
I like keeping track of how much data I use while tethering. Wired and wireless tether lets me do that. Playing MW2 and BF3 over 3G is data intensive, so I like to keep an eye on it. Plus, those are things the Sprint knows wouldn't be coming from the phone normally, so limiting their data use would be a good idea.

No, just figured you might want to ditch the cable. Sorry.

Cool. Just checked it out on the sleeper rom and it works as it would. I just turned on USB tether and plugged it in. No issues.

No can do. The PC doesn't have wireless. Plus it's nice to charge the phone and only use one radio at a time instead of the big drainer of EVDO and Wifi going full bore.

[Q] Transfer files between phone and laptop via WiFi Direct?

Is there a way to transfer files between your laptop and Galaxy S4 in a manner similar to using S Beam? Is there some sort of dongle for your computer that will let you pair your devices to transfer files?
