Has anyone had any luck getting Barnacle or Google's wifi-tether going on the i400?
Goods question. I'm curious for the answer.

That works if you root download the latest beta
Easy tether also works without root, but it's not a wireless tether.
Trailblazer101, I'll give the latest beta a shot. Thanks.

Worked fine!
Update (about 3 days late)
After flashing my GPAD to Vegan, I did get ad-hoc to work through the tether app installed on the continuum (for the newbies like myself: Android has adhoc connecting disabled by default, so you have to use -- from what I can tell -- a custom ROM to connect to an adhoc wireless connection).
The Continuum only needed to be rooted so tethering could be installed.
Trying to root my Continuum. Tried the one click but it just locked up my phone. Pulled battery, do I do it again?
I'm totally new on the androids.
suggestions?

Yes that is what I was referring to :-/
As of right now, you cannot root... I was previously rooted, but the update made it go away T_T. Bubby323 is getting a continuum for a little bit and should have it updated soon
I bought my Continuum yesterday, the 22nd. An update was immediately applied. Spent hours trying to root. Z4root (my go-to) wouldn't work after countless attempts. Gave up on an update.zip recovery. SUPERONECLICK is exactly how I was finally able to root...

anyone get wifi tether to work with froyo update?
ive been using wireless tether 3.0 beta without a problem just select sasmsung fascinate then enable softap mode.
works thanks
I'm currently using Open Garden. It seems to be working great so far. I actually paid for the full version of EasyTether, and there's problems with the Continuum and EasyTether. Evidentially, USB debugging times out after a while. It's no biggie though, for me, because using a wifi tether app is so much simpler.
The new beta from Google works the best because you can enable softap mode so linux and playstations will pick it up. Open garden, barnacle, the wireless tether from the market just use adhoc frequincies so not everything will pick it up.

Ahh... I was not aware of that. Thanks for that info!
The Google beta app works, but my primary problem with it is the fact that it turns off BT every time I tether. I'll be using Open Garden until a newer version is released that doesn't affect my BT connection.

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.

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..
Ok so I just ordered a X from ebay and its on its way. So I started doing a little research on rooting since I want to root it right away. I have done some research in this form but wanted to be sure before I attempted anything. So, is their one solid way to root the phone no matter what version it is? If not what do I need to know for certain OTA versions so I dont brick my phone? Thanks!

Ok so I have revived my phone and rooted it. Its awesome by the way. But I am in the process of setting up WiFi tether. But each time I start it the 3g hotspot comes up in the background. So when I connect my computer and go to any website it shoots me strait to the Verizons page. Even though I have root and am running a different WiFi tether program other then the 3g hotspot that the x comes with. How do I get around this without being charged.
Try using easytether to usb tether instead
I would really like to use some sort of wifi tether. Their should be some sort of work around or fix.

I'm having this problem for awhile, tried different things all end up when tethering my phone shuts off about 45min to 1h of tethering.
Currently on EC05, stock rom and wifi tether 3.0 pre 12 but tried them all and going down in version for more stable one.

Settings, choose device build and select the Epic.
Also, make sure 4G radio is OFF before starting it.
I have all that selected still no luck.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
this happened to me on ef02 it only worked when plugged in to a power source.
I'd suggest uninstalling that one and switching to Barnacle Tether. I recall the WiFi Tether app having technical issues that the dev couldn't get around.

the latest beta works. unistall the stock one first. (manually like with root explorer) then install. then reboot.
will work fine =)
I would suggest...... the sprint wifi hotspot hack, you can set time limits for usage & have up to 5 things runnin @ the same time(if u didnt already kno...lol) & it works with 4g!!!

Since I'm on EC05 that didn't work but found patch that modified framework and now pure hot spot working without wifi tether, thanks again.

I successfully rooted my wife's Droid 2 on Gingerbread and now when I run the wireless tether app, I get a notification that i'm using the hot spot feature, takes me to a website showing me the cost to adding the hot spot feature and not allowing me to tether unless I pay.
Is there a way to bypass this so that she can use her wireless tether without this nonsense?

There is 'wireless tether for root users' in the market and it is free. It allows for wifi tethering.

I can confirm that beta 6 works 100%.
Just finally got success on gingerbread rooted Droid 2.
When we opened the settings, 'Droid X (CDMA)' was already selected.
I could have tried it before and selected that option in the past (and this maybe was reading those settings)
but with everything normal except Droid X (CDMA) chosen it works. Try it!

Wireless tether app v. 3 beta11 does not work for me even when set on DroidX (CDMA). Is free wireless tether with root a thing of the past? I've seen the TBH hack, but I don't run windows and I don't know if I trust myself messing with the phone that much...
Works fine for me on the 1/21 build of cm7

You need to get a hold of the team blackhat zip file that's the wifi hotspot hack, then you will flash it in clockwork mod recovery. After that download the latest wifi tether apk file and it will work.

Anybody get wifi tethering to work on rooted ginger 596?
Yeah Verizon added some code into the stock gingerbread build that lets them detect when an app is attempting to create a wifi network. So it high jacks you to their website. You can either use team black hats wifi tether fix, or use a custom rom that doesn't have that ****ty code in it. I'm currently using MIUI 2.2.10 and its basically a gingerbread rom with ICS features. You can run wifi tether no problem on it, it also has its own built in wifi tethering feature.
If you're gonna stick with gingerbread stock though, team black hats zip fix is most likely gonna be you're only solution.
Hello
I have a Droid X on 2.3 It's rooted and everything and recently I tried tethering. Every time I connect to my phone with my iPad it sends me to Verizon's page to subscribe to tethering plan. I was using Wireless Tether..but that stopped working..so now I'm using Barnacle Wifi Tether. That was working great until I updated to 2.3 I saw in the market WIFI Tethering but that wouldn't even download. Anyway for me to tether without verizon sending me to the subscribe to a tethering plan page?
Thank you

I am very curious now, because I am still on Froyo, and I just checked and my DroidX does indeed have the DataManager .apk and the database files! (by the way, the database has 50,000 records!) Does this mean that big red is also tracking tethering on Froyo??? The reason I kept refusing to switch to GB is because of that issue. Hmm..
Tried the patch above twice
Back to the drawing board I guess... I'm not really sure how to figure out this adhoc thing... With the beta app above, open garden, and barnacle I can see the SSID but it will not connect, and when I'm on my Xoom it says adhoc not supported. But the thing is, I could tether before, and I could connect with the xoom; before I installed MIUI 1.10.7 android version 2.3.5 gb
Before I flashed this rom I never heard of this adhoc... I am reading that there may be no fix for this right now, is that correct???
The link above installed okay, but when I go to open the app it installs I get a force close =/

Check your permissions on root explorer.
And example is
Use root explorer
Go too app data
Click on wifi tether
Check to make sure under owner execute is checked.
make sure if you got the wugfresh patch you select droid x under profile in settings. Common mistake.
Also with a custom rom you may want to go back to stock and try the wugfresh process again. I can assure you it works on a droid x. I've done it many times not with a custom rom though.
