Use the attached Market Access apk. You need to be rooted before using it.

thanks for that, ive been trying to find this solution!! woooord.

What worked for me is to go to Airplane mode, then connect via WiFi.

need to root?

I lost all Internet access during a call. WiFi Tethering went and then I lost all access.

That sucks.

I'm using the wireless tethering for root user, the newest one for the facinate.

Share files through a created wifi hotspot

So I had this idea for a longer time now.
I'd like to access the files on my galaxy tab through for example my iPod. Therefore I'd like to create a wifi hotspot that just simply gives access to these files.
Is this possible?
It should be possible if I share my internet connection with the iPod through a mobile hotspot.
But I'd like to save my mobile data plan.
The other way round: iPod -> tab probably wont work because of iOs's limitations right?
Is this possible at all? Or can't the tab create a network structure that would allow this.
It should, shouldn't it? It can share the mobile data, so it should be able to share files?

DLNA
If you change a file name to a DLNA supported extension than you can probably transfer from one device to another. Then when on the other device just change the extension back.

Okay I have no idea what Dlna is, I just know its something with servers.

I believe you are looking for an app called: WiFi File Explorer. With free version you can download files from Tab, with full version you can also upload files to it.

I think I wasnt precise enough. I want the tab to be the wifi hotspot.
When I'm out in the dessert, there's no wifi hotspot in sight, I still wanna be able to access the files on my tab.
Wifi explorer is working with a hotspot, I just can't seem to download files with free version.

Digital living network alliance. Unless you want to share multimedia files, it's useless for you. The tab has a client / server app installed, AllShare.
A little question : why not just use the hotspot feature? I doubt that in the desert you'd be able to connect to the network and spend money accidentally.
That aside, I'd use FTPServer on the tab to share the files, and whatever ftp client you want to access them.
Still there's the issue on how to connect everything...
Sharing from the iPod would work the same way, with the limitation that the files to share need to be in the server folder.

Okay I've got ftpserver installed, but I've got no idea what to enter into the blanked out fields.
Btw. How can I make a mobile accesspoint, when I haven't got a 3g connection?
That option is just greyed out when I haven't got mobile data!

Really? Well, that's unexpected. About the settings, just fill them as you wish. But remember what you used, don't just input random stuff: that data needs to be input into the client as well.

So I entered the stuff into ftpserver, started the server.
I can't access it through a webserver neither with my desktop nor the iPod touch.
I just get some error that its not availible.
Ftpserver has in its logs then, that it blocked because the standard directory doesn't exist on those devices.
If I change the directory to "/" it stills doesn't work on the PC.

Nope, you are doing it wrong : what you need to connect is an ftp client, try Cyberduck on Windows.
Also, while I don't think it would be an issue, try to set the server on /sdcard no need to get access to the whole system ( if that even works)
An ftp client for the iPod... hard to tell, looks like all of them aren't free.

I just send files back and forth with bluetooth. No 3g connection required.

Sadly I don't have a Bluetooth USB stick and Joseph (wtf fail autocorrect: iOs) doesn't allow filetransfair for Bluetooth.

That's not entirely true, I forgot the name, but on Cydia there is an app to handle the whole Bluetooth file sharing issue. Might not be free however.

Jep i know that.
Its called ibluenova and it didn't even work on 3.x, it was quite buggy. on ios 4.x it doesn't work at all.
so that is no option.

When I have to, I share between devices (laptop, phone) with a dropbox. Also by email. But that means a data connection.

Try "file expert" app. Then set your tab as a "mobile access point" using the standard wi fi settings.
When you start file expert the tab becomes a web server (it tells you what address to use and lets you set login & password)
Then open browser on your "other" device --enter the address from step above and then browse your Tab.
I tried this in the office recently with an ipad owning colleague & he was browsing my photo collection in less than a minute.

file expert its working very nicely.
Only problem is that it uses data.

Hi Diemex
Are you sure it's "using data"?
File Expert should work if you switch off your 3G and create your own private wifi network.
Glad it's working for you.

Theres definetly data that's caused by file expert. That's what 3g watchdog says.
The upload of file expert is quite precisely the filesizes of what I viewed.
Probably it even charges me double data, I think it will be uploaded first and then downloaded again via the hotspot.
Its not possible to create a hotspot without a data connection. I tried the IP I get from Fe to cennect to is also "localhost".

a wifi tethering app that works?

are there any wifi tethering apps that verizon has not blocked? I tried wifi tether and it does not work so are there others?
I want to connect my samsung galaxy tab 10.1 to my droid x when i dont have wifi

Use the barnacle tethering app from the market. It is totally free and I have found that it works better than the wifi tether app. You can also try the wifi tether app 3.2 and then set the device profile to DROID x.
I cannot post links yet so just google wifi tether for root users and the first link should be to a google code website. (I will update with a link soon.)
Use the newest version. And donate to the developers.
(I take no credit)

I tried barnacle and it wouldn't connect.
I get errors in the log saying
DHCP: could not bind to DHCP port: Address already in use
and NAT: restart: Network is down
I could not find version 3.2 of wifi tether so i tried 3.1 beta 2 and it takes me to that verizon webpage when I try to go anywhere on my tablet browser

The first link on this google search worked great for me.

I had the same exact problem you are having and got it working by using the files and instructions in the link below. Make sure you uninstall any wireless tether apps you already have installed on your phone. This update installs the newest beta version of Wireless Tether for Root Users for you (this is what you need to use) and disables the Verizon wi-fi app by deleting a file that logs data usage.
I've used it and am still using it just fine.
Good luck.

I've installed this three times now, required me to reload phone 3 times, always same issue.
After tether is done, my menu (all apps) button turns into the "recent" group. I need a menu button that works. While the tether does work perfectly, a recent group in place of my All Apps button doesn't do it for me.
Now reloading my os for the 4th time...anyone else?

Hotshot blocking some websites

I recently tried to use my hotshot and I'm receiving the http400 Web page not found. When I connect on my home Internet I can connect just fine. I only have the problem on hotspot tether. Any ideas how to fix?

http 400 is usually due to the "HTTP status code" or "the bad syntax" , Are you on a custom ROM? Any MOD to DNS server setting on your phone ?
