I've always liked to have this handy, especially back in the old Starbucks days when you HAD to pay to use their WiFi lol, but it seems like no one quite figured out how to enable Wired Tethering for most of our Eris roms. But Saturn2K came out with a fix for his Evo about a month ago and I just tried it on the Eris running PlainJane2.0 and it worked So heres the link if anyone would like to give it a try, maybe someone could clean it up a little and maybe implement into the apk or something
Edit: Saturn updated it!

It works! FINALLY!
Good find, I was getting tired of PdaNet if only this could be added into the wired tether app we'd be set for good.
I'm using White Widow 4.6 so I'm guessing it will work on others.
Perfect, this was just what I was about to hunt for. Thanks for making it easy to find.

I tried to make it catchy so everyone would look haha
just to let everyone know, this works wonders on kaosfroyo v27
thanks ref for passing this on to the rest of us.
Ive been using wired tether apk for a minute and never had a problem.. In fact I just flashed Kaos28 today and reinstalled wired tether apk with out doing any of this and my wired tether works perfectly fine... Wierd that people are having problems I was unaware..
thanks nice find....
A patch has been found in issue 21 for wired tether and was compiled however the link is lost and there is no way to obtain the apk anymore.
If a super awesome someone has the skills could you please add the patch and compile an apk for us?
Just confirming this works on the original Plain Jane by jcase. I also applied the July OTA (via recovery menu) and have the newest radio, if that matters at all. Would be nice to get the fix compiled into wired tether.

looks like only changes are multilingual support and desire compatibility enhancements
still best app there is
yeah small updates, i think i'll keep my current version since its not broken.
Hopefully they make a version to support Froyo. I know it's kinda redundent but I like the interface of wireless tether, and the fact that I can use internet on the phone while i'm tethered, on froyo it locks the phone out of using internet when wifi tether is on.
i still can't get the old wifi tether app to work with my evo. maybe i can get this new version to work
Im with u on this..

I am using this new wifi tether and surfing the net on the phone at the same time, dont seem to be having any problem with it. I am running Decks FROYO rom FROM ppcGEEKS.COM.
anyway to make this work if u dont have root? topic creator stated it wasnt necessary however when i installed and ran the program, it said i didnt have the required kernels and that i didnt have root.
oops nevermind.. i read the "do" as "dont" slow morning and havent had my coffee yet

Lol...I just want free hotspot..all that clockwork talk is over my head.
It's best to learn yourself, because that way you know what happens to your phone.
I no longer root other people's phone or mod it in any way. There is always that .00001% chance the phone would brick. I would feel horrible if I broke somebody's phone.
Not to be mean either but people come back to me for "Tech support" Blaming me that there phone isn't working properly because I "Rooted it" for them.
Also.. it's really easy to do. I mean all you have to do is:
-Get samsung drivers
-Put phone in USB Diagnostic Mode
-Run the Noobnl one click root.
Your done.
Like Pjames said.. Believe in yourself and have confidence.
Bomix is right. And its SUPER easy. If you have windows 7 you might have a smig harder time. I had to run the program 7 times to get it to finally connect and do it. But that just required double clicking it to try again. Also restaring the phone and then running the program when you see the sprint logo worked for me. But anyways, you really can't get easier than this, when I had to root my nexus one it took me forever with all the software, and dos cmd commands.

Yes, but a much, much better solution is here. Infrastructure mode, and nicely integrated into the Wireless & Networks section of the Settings app. I've installed and tested it on the MixUp kernel, and it works like a champ.
There's a few apps that pop up in the market for wifi tether. Which one should we get?

So once rooted, you don't need a special setting/program to tether, you can just use tethering programs and assume it is free?
In WM there's always the settings/program that I was paranoid about having wrong.
No... you don't use the Sprint hotspot app. This mod integrates a wireless Access Point feature/capability directly into the phone.
After installation, a new item appears in menu->settings->Wireless & networks -- "Mobile AP".
Select it, and turn it on with the checkbox. Wait while it configures everything in about a minute, then look for it with any wireless device and connect same as any AP. The device will now have internet access via your Epic.
This solution beats any other simply on account of the Infrastruture Mode implementation; however, the tight integration directly into the Android system beats the app approach too, for my tastes.
The SSID, DHCP server address range, and other wifi router/AP parameters are configurable.

just keep in mind this mod only works on stock/odexed ROMs, which if all you are doing is rooting, you have. if that is too much then you can get wifi tether but i think the market version still doesnt work on the Epic (correct me if thats changed).
the working version is here: http://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether/
but you have to go to settings > applications > check unknown sources to install a file downloaded from non-market source.

As others have stated, you really should do it yourself and learn. Unless of course you dont ever plan on getting another phone that you plan to root. Most of the guides on XDA offer wasy instructions and have (some) members that will be patient and offer you assistance if you need it.
It really isnt that difficult with the guides and instructions some have posted. Look here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=798067. My 12 year old nephew followed that post, and with minimal questions rooted his phone on his own without any issues.

I don't use the my-water wallpaper but do use the Asus weather widget. There is a post in the Xoom forums (I believe thats where I got it) that has a download link for 2 versions of the my-water and weather apk; I had to use the signed one to make it work the other is unsigned. Hope it helps.

I'm rooted so don't know if it will work without. I believe it should though. I used ES File explorer: just navigate to where you downloaded/dropbox etc. and click it. I had to use the 'signed' version but it works no problem. Good Luck- hope it helps.
Okay thanks...ill try when I get off work. I probably should just root, as it looks pretty easy.

It should work without root - though I could only speak to the one I downloaded - I also got the Asus Weather widget installed as well, as I understand it, it was signed.
I don't use the Live Wallpaper anymore because I really didn't enjoy it as a background but I do recall it working fine.
I got it to work. I used the signed one. I did root beforehand so not sure if that mattered or not but glad its working
I have a rooted wifi xoom U.S. and I could not get motoprint to work from the xoom family dump or the zone rom. I found a droid3 (edit not droidx sorry) dump (don't remember where sorry) and pulled the motoprint apk and it installed by regular install, I did not have to copy to system directory. The program now shows in my apps and is available as a print choice.
I am not by a printer and have not actually printed. If someone actually tries to use please post back.
All credit goes to the person who did the dump, I am just posting the apk.

My printer isn't supported, so I will have to use the motoprint host file on my pc.
The one in the market if the dev is Motorola Mobility, its the legitimate one. Won't work on all printers so you might have to use the host file.
does anyone still have this that they can pls send me or re-upload. thanks. i am running ics4bionic and it isnt there. thanks
Cloud print works for me.
The link no longer works... Would someone be kind enough to upload it again?
Yeah Please Can Anyone Provide Me with The Link And it would be nice if you get the official file manager to work to, i have the apks but i am unable to install them any suggestions?

I have an evo running synergy so i am familiar with rooting and changing roms there but seems to be easier with odin on epic. Thanks for all of your help.

I've tried a bunch of different ones out and am in the same situation as you... it was rooted for the sole purpose of free tethering (and to remove the samsung bloatware).
The new cleanGB rom is the best i've used, not the fastest but everything works and has been perfectly stable. for tethering i use open garden wifi - this is no longer listed on my market but if you do a google search for it, you can install it directly from their website for free. that's the best/easiest/most stable tether program i've used.

Cleangb has wifi hotspot built in, and I thought it does usb tethering as well. No 3rd party app needed. Anytime an app is pulled from the market, you really have to wonder why, and be cautious DLing directly from their website.

+1 on the CLeanGB BML. I've had an issue or too fiddling with undervolting but other than that, it just works and looks nearly stock. I'm not a big tetherer but I seem to recall doing a USB tether a while back and Wireless Hotspot hack is built-in. It also included a few other "nice" hacks that I like. Alternatively, as was mentioned, the android wi-fi tether app worked well when I did use it.

The wireless hack works great, its been built into my roms for some time now. But occasionally I still have to use alternate tether apps, as things like my TouchPad can't see Sprint Hotspot for some dumb reason.
