I rooted my G2 installed the wifi tether app from the market but it doesn't work, it says it needs a custom kernel that supports netfilter. I tried searching but nothing came up, Does anybody know where I can get this kernel?
Since your rooted, why not just install a custom rom like cyanogen mod 6.1.1 stable our virtuous htc sense 9.0 witch already come with wifi tethering built in.

Wifi tether is included in stock Android.

If you're rooted not not get the wifi tether app? Google "wifi tether android" and click the first link.

So I have tried several different methods to get wireless tether running. Can anyone point me to a method that works for sure? I'm not running a Rom and I have clockwork as my recovery. Thanks.

See here for all versions of Wireless tether for root users. I'd try the version at the very top
I actually have tried this. Do I have to be running a non stock kernel or a ROM?
no but you do need root id0 access. Use z4root. (Do a search)

If you are using Droid2 Global on non-Verizon network like I do and your operator/plan allows tethering, you can use the built-in tethering app, all you need to do is to define APN for tethering ("DUN" type). D2G won't let you create "dun" type APN outright (Verizon restricted it), but there is easy way around even if you have not rooted your phone. I use that on Rogers Canada and it works flawlessly.

What leobg says is true but as far as I know the hotspot app doesn't allow bluetooth tether.

Phone is rooted. Loaded a different kernel using clockworkmod. Downloaded tether apk from above link. No luck.

Weird. Idk what else to say. Strange bug.

I recently upgraded to Droid 2 R2D2 from Eris.I had my Eris rooted,Amon-RA recovery with KaosFroyo.
The question I have is, I use Linux desktop,and no apps support USB tethering on Linux in the market. After rooting I installed wired tether but get an error saying the kernel doesn't support it.If I bootstrap from what I understand you can't flash a new kernel on the MotoD2. Does anyone know of a way to get wired tether to work ??? I had it working on my Eris.

You can't flash a new kernel period on the D2 because of the locked bootloader.

The only thing that doesn't work is a security that only allows certain users on the network. Wireless tether itself works.

Thought I had it working with rooted Gingerbread rom but it'a no go.
Ever since I've upgraded to the HTC gb rom usb tethering doesn't work. Soon as I check the box it unchecks. I percer using the one built into the phone cus all 3rd party apps suck to me, and have to install software on the computer.

Hi, I just installed the new miui and I didn't get the wifi calling app. Where can I download it??
Please help me, thank you.
P.S. I downloaded one and when I open it , it gives me a fcc.
The ROM may not support wi-fi calling.
Install his demonspeed mod on the op it has built in wifi calling
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App
The new miui has the demonspeed installed, but no wifi calling
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA Premium App
Do a forum search for "Kineto apk." That's the WiFi calling app, and I've seen it posted in several threads around here. You download it, then install through ASTRO or File Manager.
If that doesn't work, it could be the ROM doesn't support it. That happened with my brother's G2X when he was running a tweaked stock Gingerbread ROM. Switched to EaglesBlood and it works just fine now.
If it didn't show up,try re-installing the demonspeed mod in recovery,I had the same issue for some reason and then I downloaded demonspeed and it was fine.

Is there a trick to install the hacked HotSpot? It keeps saying "Not Installed". I am stock rooted.
Edit : disregard, I must be tired. I don't even know I tried to read the op lol.
Thanks E4gN.

If your trying to install it like a normal .apk its not going to work. You have to move it to system\app and set the right permissions
Sent from my Mikrunny 4g using XDA App
What are the correct permissions may I ask? I have friend that just rooted her phone and wants the hotspot hack instead of wifi tether. Are the permissions the same as others, need to be inverted "7"?
Sent from my PC36100 using xda premium
I believe, if it goes in /system/app , as noob stated, then permissions will be rw-r-r. Same as other apks in system/app.

No, no, no, no....if you are not using a rooted custom ROM.
The hotspot hack(s) will only work on deodexed ROMs which you must flash through recovery. Since stock ROM is odexed, the only way you will receive the hotspot hack other than using the wifi tether app is to flash a rooted custom (possibly rooted stock) ROM which is deodexed, which most of them are.
The hotspot hack works on odexed roms check out the classic it only comes odexed and has hotspot working u can do anything odexed u can deodexed now a days

Ok, 1 odexed ROM. I still have never seen a hotspot hack that wasn't part of a custom ROM, unless I've missed it somewhere, and have never found one for stock ROM, unless it was a custom rooted stock ROM.
Ummm try looking there are modded hotspots to oush to your rom with instructions all over the dev section
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
I've always just flashed a rom that has hacked hotspot baked in. It's never caused any problems. I used it as my ISP for an entire summer with no issues.
Ok, so I'm rooted with superuser. How do I set those permissions when it put it in the system/app folder?

It's much easier to either use the wifi tether app or just flash a rooted ROM with the hotspot already hacked, since every hotspot hack I ever did needed to be done in a CUSTOM ROM anyway.
Also, that system/app thing (with the rw-r--r-- permissions) will install the app, but will not hack it into working, tried that about a year ago.
