I've used an app called barnacle wifi tether on dj05 and its worked perfectly.
I can also confirm that Barnacle works with dj05. I can't remember what kernal I'm running though.
+1 barnacle
I'm using barnacle with adryns latest kernel. You should be good

I also lost wireless tether after flashing dj05. Fixing permissions in rom manager set it right

Now to find Barnicle...
i tried to fix permissions however Rom Manager errors out on me when i do so....
ill check with the IRC guys to see if they know a quick fix.
well barnacle fixed my problem... looks like ill be uninstalling wireless tether.
thanks guys.
I had the same problem, I un-installed it, then googled wireless tether and downloaded the correct .apk for our device and it works like a champ now....i guess the one in the market was for the wrong radio or something maybe?
Anyhow works now.

Cool, barnacle worked for me too, it's really slow, but it's useable in a pinch.

I rooted my Fascinate, mostly to be able to WiFi tether it for my laptop and the Kindle I'm getting soon.
I've tried WiFi Android Tether app, Barnacle, and Barnacle Legacy.
The Barnacle App would give me an error along the lines of "Can't find eth0", then Barnacle Legacy(previous version) app did not give me an error but the laptop will just say "Connecting" then never actually connect.
I have the same problem with the WiFi Android Tether App where it keeps "Connecting" but never connects.
I don't think it is my laptop because I never have a problem connecting to any other WiFi...
I've looked everywhere but I can't find any help!!

Almost sounds like you're not fully rooted. Do you see the Superuser app in your app list? Also, did these apps ever prompt you to allow root access?
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App
yes
yes to superuser app.
the ADB prog says i am rooted
other root progs like SETCPU work
and the root progs ask for superuser permissions and i can set them
Look in General forum and for confirmed working widow tether. I use widow tether daily on mine. Works great. Have a nice day
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App
Ive tried that exact one, computer wont connect.ive even tried pre12
I've tried quite a few different apps to no avail, but tried pre9 tonight and it appears to be working nicely.
I must be missing something, cause I'm a noob, but what is widow tether & where can I get it? Tried 2 barnacles & 3 wifi tethers with no success.

You need to use the wireless tether 2.0.5 pre9, not the latest version.
That one works 100%.
Newest ones don't. This is already covered somewhere in the stickies.

i am using Pre9. Thats the one I was originally using when the problem occured.
I'm using wireless tether pre11 right not and so far so good. I kept getting an issue where wireless tether would work for a short time (about 1 to 2 MB of data) and then would hang. pre11 is working good so far without this issue. give it s shot. you can always drop back to an older version.
I'm having the same problem, my Vista laptop sees the network and won't connect, my wife's Windows 7 netbook will connect now problem, so I know the phone is working right, it has to be something with Vista 64

I've had no problems with pre11...I've only used it a few times, but I did stream an entire episode on Hulu on my desktop and it worked without a hitch. I am on OSX.
FWIW, I happened to root & installl barnacle last night on my Fascinate. Barnacle worked happily once I made sure that A)Superuser automatically allows barnacle permissions and B) Skip wpa_supplicant was checked. I've only had an hour or two of testing, but no glitches.
Info: SCH-I500[RKAVZW] - i500.04, 2.1-update1, 2.6.29
Barnacle: Encryption: Off Access Control: unchecked, Ch:1 Custom Wifi Ad-hoc: none, Skip wpa_supplicant: checked, pp0, eth0, DHCP: 1200s lease, NAT 32000, 300, 100, 30, 90
I use Easy Tether and it works flawlessly.
Not sure exactly what is going on with your issue...however FWIW:
Any build of Wireless Tether would cut out on me occasionally - it wouldn't drop connection permanently, but rather for several seconds.
I use tethering to play online games that require a constant stream of data. Barnacle Wifi Tether Legacy works flawlessly. Never lose connection.
Are we looking at a fluke kernel issue with the OP's question?
I have tried all of these options and can't get any to work. The only thing that does is the stock hotspot app I reprogrammed from a thread here. How are you getting this to work? Do I need to remove the vzw hotspot app first?

Barnacle (did not try legacy) is also more stable for me than wireless tether pre9/11/12
I rooted my buddies epic today and installed wifi tether and we couldn't get it to work. The app was granted su permission and turns on, but no PC or other wifi phones can find it. Any ideas? Trying to leave him on a stock rooted rom because he has no idea what's going on. Thanks.

Wireless Tether from the market doesn't work, you'll need a different version. Uninstall the one from the market and install the latest one from here (pre11 works for sure, but the newer ones should also): http://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether/downloads/list

check skip wpa supplicant under settings for the wireless tether.
also what did you root with z4 root or 1click.

Try turning on access control and add the computer to it. That's always worked for me.

I think your issue is that Wireless Tether creates an ad-hoc network, and most (if not all?) Android devices cannot connect to ad-hoc networks (at least without some work). It's working fine, just the Evo cannot connect to it. You would need a laptop or something else. As suggested, try MobileAP, since it works in infrastructure mode.
I pulled the .apk file from the syndicate rom and that one worked with no issues at all.
Attached are the files I used. I put them on my SD card and installed. Up and running with no issues.
This is what you gotta do.. get it all installed and open it... then hit "menu" followed by "access control" ...when that page pops up, at the top right corner there's a box that's unchecked... check that box... now trn on the tether, alow a minute for the computer to pick it up then try to connect... when it pops up it'll show "androidtether" as the name... connect to it... at this point it'll ask your phone for permission, so slide down the statusbar and click on the little image that pops up... it'll take you back to the "access control" page and beside where the computer just showed up, click the little box and it should start tethering at that point... hope that helps...
Note: these steps are for the apps listed in post #2 that you download from google.

To get wireless tether to work, you need to go to the WT Google code website and download the latest beta version.

The app wireless tether does not work for me anymore. It says wireless tether has started with errors. I check the log and many things failed such as setting channel, setting essid, setting ad-hoc mode, and activating wifi interface. How can I get this to work? Running CM7 with the HDMI kernel.
Same here. I tried to reinstall and it doesn't work. I'm using UD and Myn's.
doesn't work on cm7 with savage zen either
no errors but nothing will see it when scanning
The only thing I have got to work is Barnacle..and also the built in hot spot works well too.
I've been having the same issue. Barnacle works but that only does an adhoc network, so my PS3 and Kindle won't connect to it
Works fine on my stock 2.2 Evo. Just used it today.

I had the same problem, but I was able to get it working with version 2.08-pre1 ***Experimental***. The latest version did not work for me on CM7 nightly, and the native one didn't work either, but the version above works like a charm!
Native one works perfect for me on CM7 build 22.
Works great on ava z3 rom for 3g as for 4g I have to use the green tether or i get the you have not subscribed to this service call sprint like yea I'm gonna pay to use 4g and kill my battery

go into rom manager and choose fix permissions.. bingo!
if that doesnt work check wifi settings and make sure that you dont already have a preinstalled tethering app ( some newer roms like destroyer have this built in )
Try a different kernel

I had issues getting apps to tether over wifi myself. It wasn't until I flashed Cyanogen 7 and started using the one built in to the mod, that I finally found one that worked. I hear a lot of people have success with barnacle wifi tether too.

As of last night im no longer able to use barnacle, wireless tether, or open garden. I've been running EF 3.6 since its release and just a week ago barnacle worked fine. Now when I connect it continues to say nat down and restarts. The only thing I can of is maybe I updated barnacle and its glitchy but that wouldn't explain why the other two aren't working. Out of ideas, and Im wondering if a noob like me can get some answers.
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App
Have you tried restarting your phone? It could be that the WiFi is in a screwed up state. Enabling and then disabling wifi in Settings might also be able to sort it out.
Yeah I've restarted and reset wifi multiple times to no resolve. I think ill just wait until there is another update for barnacle then see what happens. Like I said though it still doesn't explain the other two not working. Any more suggestions though? I hate it when something works then stops for unexplaniable reasons...
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App
This is exactly what it says when I try barnacle. Nat:restart: network is down. Waiting for uplink interface....and when I try garden or wifi tether it lets me connect my laptop with win 7 (the only device I've been trying) and everything looks fine but no data is transferred. Soo weird.
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App
Barnacle works fine for me, neither wifi tether nor open garden do. I know that doesn't help you resolve the issue, but it may hint that the issue isn't with the barnacle version.
Im thinking most of the success people have with OG/WT are on different phones or a previous version. I tried to install an earlier version of both and it told me that I had insufficient space which was complete bs. When I tried the latest version it locks up constantly and apparently hates it when you try to change a setting while the wifi is activated.
