You are going to be flamed most likely, but before that happens I will give you some info.
The best way is to flash a official Dell ROM that has this feature enabled. Most carriers block that Android strandard feature in their release roms.
There are also paid apps available in Market that will do both USB and Mobile Hotspot tethering.
There is a really nice search engine on this forum. Im sure you will find it useful in the future.

If you ate still running the stock 1.6 then you will get the update and if by any strange reason you do not then I am sure the update will be on here in a matter of hours

Gotta wait for 2.3 Gingerbread or wait for Steve to port the Camera app over to 2.2

Depends which application you are using, oovoo works with front camera, I have spoken to both fring and tango devs and they say they are actively working on a fix for the streak. Unfortunately the tango app dev said he can't get his streak to froyo yet so he's waiting on the upgrade : smirk:

Hey does anyone know how u can find out what kinda of streak u have. I got my dell streak from ebay and I don't know if it was an at&t or O2 or rogers. If there a way to find out?
Sent from my Dell Streak using XDA App
all of those are locked to their respective companies. so, for example, an ATT streak will only work with ATT sim cards, and so on.. if you want more informations, look in settings/phone info for the baseband version.
When I got mine it was unlocked and the baseband is GAUSB1A131921-US. Any ideas?
Sent from my Dell Streak using XDA App
The reason I ask is when u boot the phone up it comes I up with the O2 logo and on the baseband it says US. Soon I assume that the person who owned it before me bought it unlocked in the US and install the O2 software on it since 2.2 it was available at that point and the US version wasn't. I don't even know if that's possible. And if it is, how do I if something has been done to void the warranty.
Sorry I guess should have started with this bit... I am a noob with android.

I wanted to ask if you guys have had any luck with using the mobile hotspot without any monthly charges?
Sent from my SCH-I400 using XDA App
That's something we really aren't supposed to discuss, because it's kind of a gray area legally
But Wireless Tether is a great, free alternative and you don't have to do any serious modifications to the phone with this option, just rooting
If this doesn't satisfy you, you can always send a PM

Thanks for the information and I had no idea idea about the legal implications....

What version of wireless tether are you using? I tried 3.1 beta 7 bit couldn't get it working running ec07 miunia beta 4
Sent from my SCH-I400 using XDA App
Googles wireless tether for root users works perfectly for me just make sure you're selecting the correct profile (Fascinate!) and start up mode (WEXT ad-hoc works best) in the settings!
Still running the eco7clean.
Using latest release of witether from Google.

Did some digging. I guess the version I was running (2. 0.7) didn't have profile options. Got the latest and greatest, and it is working good.

Thanks for the recommendations. I am going to give Google wireless tether a shot and let you know if I have any questions. I am running minunia beta 4 (can't wait for 5). So Google tether is free and no extra charges to my awful bill?

Correct, on the app being free. I assume you are grandfathered on unlimited data. If not, be careful.

Thanks... I was lucky enough to switch to the unlimited plan before verizon took it away. I also bought the continuum thinking verizon would update the phone.. (we all know what happened there ) lol

Yeah... but ya know what? Thanks to the Dev's here, VZW and Samsung can both KMA. I don't need em. Even if they had released froyo, how many of us would still be running stock odexed with all bloatware intact? I sure as hell wouldn't.
Didn't think about it that way but you're right. I hate all the bloatware.

Wed be golden if they'd release froyo source. But true about the devs and no need otherwise.

the app is launching on a few htc and samsung devices at the end of feb.
one of these is the galaxy s. since the specs of the galaxy s are similar to the streak, we should be able to install the apk!

With the amount of time Sky have spent getting this software on Android, I think its fair to assume that it will be pretty seriously locked down and only available to unrooted stock versions of the devices listed unfortunately.
Would be cool if we can though!
Doesnt seem to work. Has anyone got it working on dell streak and if so how?

I only have sky news using the app from this thread.
