Just bought a rooted Evo on Craigslist which has fresh Rom but for some reason I can't tether it. I installed several WiFi tendering apps but when I try to connect to it using my pc, it says no internet access. Tried on Vista and win7.
any ideas why its doing this? Thanks

Hey guys,
I previously owned an htc hero and had a fantastic wireless tether app on the phone. I can't seem to find the app in the market and am wondering if i can find it somewhere on xda. I've tried everything i can find on the market but nothing seems to help. Barnacle Legacy tether works but then gives me a NAT error.
Thanks for your help.
You need to be rooted.

Seems to work great. I was able to tether and watch netflix in the car on a laptop.

Has anyone tried this on froyo? I was hoping we'd finally get infrastructure mode but I still show up as ad hoc to my laptop.

It won't be infrastructure...for it to be infrastructure it has to be configured for it by the author specifically for each device. There are plenty asking for it from Droid X to etc so we are in a long line...just wait for Official Froyo so we can get MobileAP..
Hello All,

Hmm, i been going there looking couldnt find anything? unless im blind lol
Possible Temp Solution
Have you tried going into Manage Apps and Force Closing Wifi Tether?
I do force closes whenever that happens and it works like a charm.

which apk? how do you do it with adb? i never done it that since im new to rooting..
I'm kind of a noob to all this stuff so please go easy on me. Anyways, my phone wouldn't root on my laptop because the laptop wouldn't recognize it even after installing drivers and trying a million times so I couldn't root through that. So I turned to z4root which was a one click app root on the market...since then everythings worked good like superuser titanium backup etc. But for some reason my wifi tetherin won't work...any ideas?
It comes up as a network on my computer with good strength but when I go to connect it never does...
Thanks

Windows 7 laptop? Lots of people have issues with windows 7 and ad-hoc connections.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
No actually I have 2 laptops...one is running windows vista 64 bit which I was thinking might be a reason...and my other one is the Google chrome os cr-48 notebook...neither can connect :/...any other ideas?
Could it be a sucky root or something?
Thanks again...

Really? I haven't had any trouble connecting Windows 7 to my wifi tether.
To the OP, do you have access control on? If so, you may have to grant the computer access. Press menu, access control and select your computer on that screen, then apply changes. Hope this helps.

Why.don't u try mobileap? What wifi tether are you using? It wouldn't be your root. That has nothing to do with it. Your either rooted or your not.

Im not home right now but I definitely will when I get a chance...ive tried barnacle wifi and wireless tether...but that's what I figured "either rooted or not" :/
Anyways heres a few screenshots of what's happening...

I I just installed CyanogenMod-7.2.0-RCO-Epic last night. I have to say this is the first modded ROM that I am running and I love it.
But I cannot get Wifi Tether to work. I tried the Google version and also Barnacle. They both will run, ask for superuser, and they appear to start. But the SSID is not visible anywhere?
Is there anything out there that can fix this? Wifi Tether was working for me on the Stock Froyo (Rooted) but now wont work.....
Any help would be appreciated.

flash the latest nightly build
Check to see if your apps are saved to sd card, then move to sys memory(512MB), they should then be visible in your app drawer.......this is one possibility w/ your issue.
Also, as was suggested: reflash, could be a bad dl or bad flash.

Apps are not installed on the SD Card. Apps are visible in the app drawer.
The apps start fine and say they are running. I remember before I flashed with this ROM and using just the rooted Froyo I would get "Hotspot activated" and sort of a bullseye icon on the top. That does not happen, i only get the wifi tether icon on the top.
The build that I installed says on the first page the wifi drivers and such were fixed.
I am new to MOD'd Roms, if i install a nightly and it messes up, can i just re-install the original Modded ROM (both MTD), i konw that is a really basic question, but dont want to brick my phone.
You could also try the wifi tether that Flastnoles11 posted in the CM7 Discussin and tip sharing thread. It was about the 10th page so roughly just under post 100.

Why not use the wifi tether built into settings? That works perfectly fine for me.
