[Q] wifi tether - myTouch 3G, Magic General

PLEASE HELP! I can't get my wifi tether to work on my mytouch 3g. the application says its on and working but i cant get internet access on my laptop, an other devices such as smart phones can't even see it. i used super one click to root my phone and then installed the wifi tether app. i have superuser and spare parts. i have rooted this phone before and it worked fine so i know the hardware is capable. any help would be greatly appreciated.

I've never had luck in 1.5 teathering you can flash the rom I use in my signature the 1.2 version and try that...

First of all, wrong section. I'll move to General where it belongs.
Secondly, does your rom support net filtering? If you don't know then at least tell us what kind of rom you're using.

i apologize, i did not change rom. its stock i only rooted to access a minor overclock and tether features. last time i rooted my phone i used a different method and had a caynogen 6 something rom froyo lookalike . and the stock rom the root i did last time did it also. if i need to load a custom rom then please let me know which one is best for the features i need

Ask the developer of your rom if the kernel supports netfiltering. If it's pure stock then that's your problem.

Update! Just an fyi. I got it to work very nicely simply by adjusting the frequency in the application's settings.

USB tethering

Is there a way to enable the usb tethering on the Hero? I've read sprint disabled this feather awhile back. I'm rooted and use wifi tethering but my aunt just got a Hero (loves it btw), is not rooted and asked me could she tether. I don' live close to her or I'd root her phone. Is usb tethering a lost cause?
Thanks

you can do it on the 2.1 update (maybe just roms based off the update?) but you need to flash a VZW pri. to do so you need root? (citation needed)
i use the native tethering in cm 6.0 and it works awesomely. almost seems faster than my RoadRunner

Yes I know all is possible with flashing, which in this case is not an option. My aunt is not nearly technical enough for a root & flash.
Before we get into different prls. What OS version is her hero.
She is on latest 2.1 ending in .6
PDAnet and EasyTether. Just tell her to pick one, download it from the market, follow the setup instructions, and then tether away.
Is there any Sense ROM with USB Tethering?

[Q] Upgrade cricket evo to 2.3

Dont know if this has been mentioned before.
Can I upgrade to 2.3 without negative effects?
Sorry if this has been discussed before.
Also, can I flash a regular rom ?
You can but it will require a rooted phone. My first evo I bought I flashed it to cricket and it is no different on the newer roms. The main problem I had was mms did not properly work until jimmy for evo. I rarely am in these evo sections cause I have other devices to concentrate on. My recommendations are root your phone. Do a search for flashing to cricket here and other places for evo, then find a rom with proper epts support. Once that is done, learn CDMA master to change settings if you cannot do it via epts. I am sorry I cannot be anymore help, it has been a long time since I messed with cricket. I switched over to sprint because I was fed up with cricket internet and mms crap. Hope this helps. I had to learn on my own and google is your best friend.
Its another phone I have, which its already flashed to cricket. I was wondering if I could flash "smooth n sexy" for example.
or a gb rom without braking it

You can flash any ROM, the thing is this, you may have to replace some of the files that you copied over. I run MikGs rom on my Evo flashed to cricket. There is a tut somewhere in this section that works for ANY ROM. That is why I keep the files I may need (telephony.db for example) on my SD card.
But the other items that you changed that require EPST remain untouched. Just the u2nl file you might need if you're on the 45 plan and of course, the telephony.db along with the apn file
Got it, thx.
what if I just flash an sbc kernel with undervolt? without the Rom

You can flash any kernel on top of any ROM. The kernel doesn't touch anything related to the flash or files needed to function on Cricket.

hotspot hack

Is there a hotspot hack for rooted mje? I rarely use unless cable goes down but it's nice to have a backup. I'll wait on rooting if there's no hotspot hack.
Or does wifi tether for root users work?

Yes there is, any of the current available ROMs have an available WiFi hotspot that works without any issues.

thanks for the reply now do I have to use a rom kinda wanted to stick with stock rom. Unless I don't have to use safe strap I never liked the idea of using up space on my device.

I'm not sure if it works on the stock ROM anymore. SafeStrap does not take up much space at all and Beans ROM is basically a pimped out version of the stock ROM with a bunch of additional features and less bloatware.

fwiw on MJ7 I have tried Android wifi tether and also that market hotspt toggle widget app (video), and neither of those seemed to work with rooted stock MJ7. But FoxFi works ($7.95 to avoid free version limitation), and so does "Tether Setting" (noboru)*. The latter is free, but only does WPA; but it requires far fewer Android Permissions than FoxFi.
Don't feel bad about being conservative. I've got rooted-stock-MJ7 in a secondary Safestrap slot and virginal (but rooted) MJ7 in the stock slot. For now, when I screw around with debloating or freezing, I only do that in a dev slot. Lame, right?
YMMV on MJE.
*for this one you might also need to use the trick where when the "you don't have a subscription for this" screen pops up, you just ignore it by using the Home key (rather than cancelling it).
.
I too would like to stick with the stock rom. I don't mind rooting, so is there an apk that I can install so I can tether?
Got my phone and tried Foxfi, and it works! I'm on MJE
I do miss Android Wifi Tether, just because it gave me a good idea of how much data I had used.
Has anyone had success using "WiFi Tether Router by Fabio Grasso" ?
This supposedly allows tethering also...

directions please for tethering

Just got the s5 and got it rooted but it is my understanding we need a boot loader unclock to load custom roms?
anyway what i really want is wireless tether can someone point me in the right direction. I cant seem to find any guide
just this http://repo.xposed.info/module/com.dym.motoxtether

1. Your first point is slightly incorrect. We need an unlocked bootloader to load custom kernels and ROMs like CM or AOSP. We can load Touchwiz ROMs with SafeStrap and there are multiple options on this forum.
2. There are multiple ways to do wireless tethering. You can use x-tether through XPosed, use Foxfi, or load a ROM that removes the Verizon provisioning and you can just use the built in hotspot.

[Q] Rooting to Tether/Mobile Hotspot

Hello everyone, this is gonna super noob of me to post but I'm going to do it because I'm a bit confused.
I'm ok with the stock rom, I'm sure down the road some day I will install a custom rom or cyanogen mod. But for now I understand that rooting the Note 4 will trigger a change in state to show that the device had been rooted before.
I've rooted and installed custom roms on countless phones before, but the reason I make this post was because I achieved tethering/mobile hotspot by installing cyanogenmod, which came prebundled with those features enabled. I don't really want to install a custom rom, but I do want to somehow have the ability to tether/mobile hotspot without installing a custom rom. What would be the way to do that? Do I have to install an apk after rooting and if so, what would that apk be? (Using Sprint unlimited data)
TL;DR - Noob here trying find the best way to use mobile hotspot/tether without paying carrier.
Thanks for your time and sorry for such a noobish question.

if your rooted here's your best try
I use Foxfi. It doesnt need root and it does mobile wifi teather without carrier charge. I'm on verizon, not sure if it works on sprint.
Tethering and mobile hotspot just work when completely stock and un-rooted.... I guess if you get it from specific carriers they can block this function?
i'm on USA Sprint and foxfi uses the stock tether function so access to those function is denied unless you pay for it, which is why I have to root.
