Would like to ask if anyone install and work with the wifi router app successfully in X8 after rooting the official Android 2.1 ROM? I am planning to buy it, see if anyone has tried it before or not. Thanks a lot!
Wifi is pretty weak on X8. Processing signal and forwarding it it's too much for a small phone like this.
(I didn't find any wifi router software)
Thanks for your feedback, because one of my plan is using it as wifi hotspot for other device to connect to internet~
Barnacle works flawlessly in mine! You'll need it rooted of course.
I guess it's sharing 3g internet over wi-fi, right? I don;t have it and doesn't work.
or just can use wifi tethering http://www.appbrain.com/app/tethering/com.guardam.Tethering

Yes, X8 can. Just Root your x8 and install Barnacle Wifi tether

No.....

Okay, So I've pretty much always used ROM's with Built-in internet share
But now I'm using KingxKlick Legend2G1 but Wired tether nor the HTC tether will work(i even installed HTC sync 3.0)
but no luck
Wired tether says its the kernel, but I'm using king's #11 from the Slide2G1 and its wired tether works just fine.
So I'm stuck using Easytether free again(like without root)
But its got no HTTPS with that and I'm to cheap to buy anything. >_>
Soooo is there anything I can use thats unlimited/free
I don't have internet in my house so my phone is the only sauce for internet on my computer.
Thanks in advance.
pdanet works fine for me.
Ever heard of Barnicle Wifi tether app? If not, try the market it's free.

Free/unlimited.
PDAnet is like Easy tether...
you get a trial and then you have to pay to unlock https again.
Barnicle, Yes i know what it is....and that would be great if my PC had a wi-fi card!
I've used it...windows 7 laptops at walmart...hahahahah
***edit***
But it does not matter now, I've gone back to Slide2G1 battery life and tether but no location.. hopefully when the update for the 1.2 comes out it will be the slideUI and have normal Froyo tether...or work with HTC sync to tether
Does anyone know if Barnacle works on the new Update?

it doesn't work on my phone with the update but I think you need root in order for Barnacle to work. someone please correct me if I am wrong.
Damn.. That means we have to use the APN method for tethering.
Correct, no Barnacle without root... I haven't had to tether since the update but I planned on using the alternate APN if I had to.
I am using Barnacle with new update on Atrix and works better than Android Wireless Tether for me.

opposite experience for me, barnacle works but has a weak signal and would disconnect and reconnect on its own often. mobile hotspot gives a strong signal throughout the house and does not disconnect on its own. btw barnacle does need root and you can get root with the update, check the dev section.

Same here. Barnacle was working fine before the update, after rooting with GladRoot, updating, and running AfterUpdate, Barnacle is not working any more.
It connects but is slow and drops in and out.
I'm running latest Gingerblur and Barnacle works fine for me.
Works fine, but you've always needed root for it to work.

Correct regarding root..........and I have also done a comparison between Barnacle and WiFi Tether.......................Barnacle gave me a consistent 1mbps more on download than WiFi Tether. Uploads were about the same. Don't ask me why, but that was an extended test the other day.

So what am I doing wrong? Barnacle worked on mine pre update and on my X10 prior to that.
My WiFi tether does work but I would like to use Barnacle.
Please help.
Thanks.
Anyone able to confirm this? If that's the case ill probably stick to my rooted froyo...the tether is just too convenient at times...

You can tether, however the 3G wireless hotspot no longer works, I do believe Wireless Tether still works however
Didnt work for me... Tried using code.android wifi tether for root users yesterday and it did not work.
Think the application has to be updated.

Contact the developer. I use usb tethering through easytether, and it works perfectly
I had two tether apps, both failed under .595...depressing.
Someone inboxed me that the older version of the tether app works under GB, but I haven't tried looking for it. I will probably take JMoney47's advice and use easytether since he says it works.

Are you talking about the paid built in 3G Hotspot? That's working fine for me. Also one thing I like is how Motorola actually kept the code in for USB tethering now as well. I like this because now I don't have to worry about VZAccess manager which never supported the X - I just use my Mobile Hotspot/USB Tether 2GB plan with the built in USB Tether.
If your talking about rooted wireless tether, my buddy said he had issues with it. But the "official" one works.
wifi tether
I found this download and i am using my wifi tether as we speak. The rom on my droid x is ginger ale //code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether/downloads/detail?name=wifi_tether_v3_0-pre14.apk&can=2&q=[/url] you can find it here. One thing is i cant download anything on my tab maybe there is a fix for this .

If you're trying to wifi tether, check out this thread for info on how to update the Iconia to allow for ad-hoc wifi network support.
Basically you backup the current wpa_supplicant file, replace it with a downloaded/updated copy, fix permissions on the new file, reboot.
<edit>Bah ya beat me to it ;P
This thread might be of use to you depending on how you're tethering:

I'm not much help with all that as I have no trouble tethering my A500 to my HTC Evo 4G via bluetooth or wifi tether. Two wifi tether apps were included in Myn's Warm 2.2 ROM that I have on my Evo. I was surprised to see so many people having tethering issues.
Edit: Beat 2x to the punch! Man, you guys are fast! Haha.
My mobile phone is Sony X2 with Winmo 6.5.3 version. I need tethering with Acer. How to do that?

WinMo should have an option to turn on Bluetooth Dial Up Networking (DUN), turn that on, then pair the phone to your tablet and you should see a "Tethering" option show up on the tablet in the Bluetooth settings for the pairing. Check out this post (sorry, on a diff. site) but skip down to step 9 (as 1-8 cover Android phone tethering.) The pictorial was inspired/derived from this post here on XDA.
Note: you may have to have a tethering plan active on your phone service for this to fully work. I'm a bit fuzzy on this, it's been 2 years since I had my Samsung WinMo phone.

If I paired succeed A500 with Sony X2 (support 3G) meaning I can access Internet through via 3G from network provider?

If the phone supports bluetooth or wifi tether and your network provider hasn't blocked it, yes. Back when I had my WinMo phone I had to pay for a tethering plan, which I stopped after a couple months and only turned back on when I had to for work (& billed work for the extra $$)
Yesterday, I came to mobile store and try this function. As you introduced above, I turned on Bluetooth and had paired my X2 Winmo phone with A500 but I could not find Tethering option on A500. Although I tried and work find with my Acer laptop via PAN wire or PAN Bluetooth meaning my network provider support fully tethering. I wonder A500 can not tethering with Winmo phone or I misses complete steps.
I any idea for me?
Hi,
As the usb tethering is now available thanks to the gingerleak kernel , and in the ms2ginger rom there is a motousbtethering application that doesn't work at all , i decided to bring this to our MS2.
This my first app, it is a fork of the well known android wired tether v1.4.
Now it work with the milestone2 , the moto guys don't things like everyone !
Enjoy !!
Thanks for the app.
BTW., Is there any solution to have something like on HTC where you can tether-back from your computer to your phone? The opposite of typical tethering.
Yes i think it is not so hard! In reverse tethering, all the configuration, iptables and dhcp server must be done properly on the pc! It is just assigning the phone an adress on usb interface and a good gateway!

I can dig it, but i'm on ms2ginger, and the wifi tether by the parameter menu works well! I'll install android_wifi_tether and see why it might not work !

Ok but, i don't know how to do the same in windows ! Once the phone is in reverse tether state , the app won't configure the computer for you. i don't know you can configure easily in windows.

There are some guides of how to do this on an iPod/iPhone, it might work for us.
BTW, tether works, but people connected don't get network access.

It doesn't work on MIUI from WajkIUI...
Do you have the good kernel ? You must have the gingerbread kernel with rndis support ! If the app said nothing about kernel incompatibility, then try the android_tether_usb app , google it ! If it doesn't work either, do a adb shell and post your netcfg result, ip route result here.

Hi , i'll do some test with wifi tether , i advise you this app :
http://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether/
with the cdma_droidx profile ! and for me it works.
If not you'll need to give some kernel info .
Oh, I forgot to mention, that the app says that the kernel isn't compatible...

Ok, i guess that. It seems to me , the MIUM rom is based on a froyo kernel, and sadly the motorola kernel doesn't include the rndis protocol. You have no chance to get tether usb work on that kernel... i tried since feb !

That's not true, I survived some weeks using my phone as a Wi-Fi USB Adapter with PDANet when we didn't even had a real Rom for Milestone 2. Is there a difference from this to tether?

Yes it's true ! I talk about usb tethering , not wifi ! Wifi is not exactly the same , and the app i advise you should work ! Tere are other tether method that use vpn method port redirection, so you don't need to be root .
Furthermore , in the 2.2 moto roms, they have the hotspot 3G app which does wifi tether without problem (in france ) .
