I have been having trouble using easy tether to connect to the Internet on my computer after upgrading to Ubuntu 11.04. It was working fine on 10.10 but after updating, I can't seem to get it to work.
I have installed the drivers and have it running on my phone and I type the commands:
cd /usr/bin
easytether connect
It displays that I am connected on the terminal, but network manager just says that I am searching for a connection. Does anyone know how to fix this? Or have another way to USB tether to Ubuntu 11.04?
What phone are you using ? There is a known bug in ubuntu heres how to fix it https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AndroidScreenshots. I know its for screenshots but it works the code is for htc if you are not using a htc device the vender codes for other devices can be found in the superoneclick.thread.

Hey thanks for the link. I will try editing my android.rules file to the new one that is there
Nope that didn't work. Thanks for the input though. Does anyone else have this problem? I have seen a bunch of people on the ubuntu forums but there doesnt seem to be anyone who got it to work
I bumping this again because I really need this to work. Any ideas????? Please???
My Ubuntu box was not able to find my phone...but after I went In and manually added it it connects just fine.

Are you on 11.04? And how did you manually add it?
I can get adb to work. Also, if I type:
cd /usr/bin
easytether enumerate
It shows the device id but if I type:
easytether connect #############
It shows it connects in the terminal just like it does without the number, it says it is connected in the terminal, but network manager does not connect.
This is incredibly important to me so could you please post how you did that when you get a chance?
I just talked to easytether support. It seems to be a bug in their program. They are going to be fixing it soon.
I apologize for reviving but was a fix released?

I've followed the guide to a T on both a Windows 7 (launched as Admin) and on a XP machine. In both cases the program sits at "Waiting for device...".
Driver installed, USB Debugging set to on. Nothing... Happens...
Never installed Sync on either OS, nor, as far as I know, is it on my phone.
WTF?!
Install Sync.
I'm having the same problem and I have sync installed. Not sure what to do.

Hmm ok I will try installing Sync. Where do I get that from? I can't seem to find it.....
are the hboot drivers installed (different from the motorola drivers)
I followed everything exactly as it said to install the bootloaders and it won't connect to the phone. When I first tried it would connect but I didn't properly install the drivers

I suggest a Switch to the Linux version...
Do yourself a favor...download a "live" linux distro (Ubuntu works fine on most all hardware) and use the Linux version of Unrevoked. I went that method after several hours of frustration under Win 7...
I was having this same exact issue! The solution (as someone else mentioned) was to install HTC Sync. Then make sure you close Unrevoked (if you already didn't) and launch it using right click > Run as Administrator.
If you installed the driver properly, it should work!
Btw, when I had the driver installed (the one that Unrevoked comes with) I was still seeing an unrecognized device under Device Manager when I connected my Aria with debugging enabled. Installing HTC Sync fixes that problem.
I couldn't find HTC Sync nor could I really even find out what it was. I'm assuming it's a Windows program?
Anyway, since I couldn't find that, I downloaded the newest Ubuntu distro, ran unrevoked as sudo, and STILL does not connect. STILL says "Waiting for device..." Ran as root, USB Debugging on. This sure is a huge pain in the ass for "Painless root and reflash".....
Is there a forum specifically for this program? I'd love to get some feedback from the developers here.
EDIT:
Ok so I finally got it to work by having the phone plugged in BEFORE running the program as sudo. It was quick and painless after that! Thanks for all the help, sorry about the sarcasm, I got flustered haha.
I had issues with my Aria connecting to PC due to multiple user being logged in at once via Fast User Switching. Me, my wife, and my son are sharing same PCs, and normally all three of us are logged in, and we just switch between our profiles using Windows-L key. And when there is someone else logged on besides me, my Aria simply won't connect -- neither to Unrevoked, nor even to HTC Sync itself.
Same thing was happening to my Nike+ wristwatch before, by the way.

Hi,
It seems that I've searched everywhere and tried everything, but I'm unable to get USB tethering to work.
Please correct me if I'm wrong, but this is my understanding of how it should work between Windows 7 64bit and Typhoon's CM7 Android running on the HTC HD2:
Phone Side:
Wired tethering is already available as an option, so simply enable USB tethering by ticking Settings -> Wireless and network settings -> Tethering & portable hotspot -> USB tethering
Windows Side:
Install the correct ADB driver for the HTC HD2. Does this create a new network adapter? I'm assuming a internet connection starts automatically as soon as tethering is enabled on the phone (and this runs via the network adapter)
When I connect the phone via USB, windows is unable to automatically find a driver. Apparently windows already comes prepackaged with a RDNIS driver, but this doesn't seem to work. The phone shows up in device manager under "Other devices" and is listed as "ADB" with a yellow exclamation mark. Where do I find the correct driver to use, and what happens after I've installed the driver. Is it true that the process is automatic, or do I need to right click on the installed adapter and click connect?
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated,
Regards,

Hi guys. Would really appreciate some tips on this one.
Is nobody using USB tethering on Win7 64?

Hey. I haven't been able to get native USB teathering to work. U can use a app to make it work that seems to be the only way as of now. If you search my posts I posted the apk file.

In the past I've had to search on google for the ADB driver but cannot remember where i found it since I couldnt find it again but a friend just brang their desire hd over and windows 7 found the driver straight away, do u know anyone who would borrow u their android device?
dunno if this helps
http://developer.android.com/sdk/win-usb.html
Thanks for the replies.
I've already installed the Google USB driver (from the developer site listed above). The phone shows up and the ADB driver is installed.
I've also tried installing the wired tethering apk from google apps. It is currently at version 1.4.
HOWEVER, I still don't understand how this is supposed to work as the ADB driver is not listed under networking devices. Surely you need a network driver to able to establish a connection. What am I not understanding?

Hey, just built a new PC for a friend and tried sharing my internet connection using easytether which didnt work because the pc didnt have the correct adb driver. My friend then installed HTC Sync (for her Desire HD) and windows found an adb driver in there. Now the native tethering & easytether on my phone works.
Now I'm not too sure if htc sync has ANYTHING to do with this, or if the driver was downloaded from her desire hd (usb was plugged in already) but I guess you could try downloading htc sync and see what happens.
This seems to have messed up my ADB.. i can no longer access my phone..
it says android adb device in device manager, but when i try and fastboot into it it say
"the system cannot find message text for message number 0x2331 in the message fille for Application"
also it now says Device offline...
anyone else have this issue?
iv tried reinstalling drivers but it says drivers already installed
SCRATCH THIS....
i fixed it.. strange problem with windows 8.. nevermind
What exactly did you do to get it to work at all? I can't see to get it to even see my device.

Hi everyone i'm trying to use the reverse tether app with my NexusHD2 2.4. The app seems legit but the problem is located to the device drivers.
I'm running Windows 7 ultimate x64. Currently my device is recognized as Android Composite ADB interface
Even normal tethering is not connecting and i get a usb fail.
i've read that i need the Remote NDIS based internet sharing device driver to work i was unable to find one working.
Is there anyone solved this problem. If yes please provide the appropriate drivers.
Thanks a lot
p.s. Yes, i really really need usb reverse tethering and no there it to possibility to share through wifi.
I think that unfortunately currently is not possible to do that, but if you use the search maybe you can find some help.
I have 2 phones, a samsung galaxy note 4 (tmobile) and a zte zinger (tmobile). One is a flagship, the other is a temporary replacement. I've attempted to get clockworkmod tethering working on both, but the tethering program wouldn't start. I'm on windows 10 as the title says, and I've done everything from uninstalling and re-installing clockworkmod tether on windows and my phone to disabling driver signature to re-install drivers for both phones, as well as replacing the ADB files from a fresh/latest install for ADB into the win32 directory to running it in compatibility mode and/or administrative mode. I verified my copy of ADB works inside C:\Program Files (x86)\ClockworkMod\Tether\win32 so I know it's not that.
Here's the only line (or 2) from the log output:
C:\Program Files (x86)\ClockworkMod\Tether
""
And then it stops.
Same here. I upgraded, and I can't uninstall OR reinstall the app either. It says I need to insert the CD-ROM for the software -.- Seems like an MS issue, but hell, who knows?
Sadly Koush hasn't made any updates to the app or PC software since February and seems to be ignoring all support requests (I've emailed, left a bug report, etc and got no response whatsoever). Windows 10 has definitely broken something with the tether, but without the dev's help I doubt it's fixable.
Just want to add that I am having the same problem. All i get is "C:\Program Files (x86)\ClockworkMod\Tether". Hopefully this gets fixed. I doubt Ill ask for a refund since Ive used the hell out of this app, but I do not want to buy another app just for Win 10.
Exactly the same here. Very frustrating.
Exactly the same here. Looks like a MS or windows 10 problem.
Hope the dev can fix it.

guess what.. same problem.. emailed and no response from tether anyone have a fix yet?
This really sucks. I only went to 10 on my laptop to test it out. Sadly its the only thing that uses tether. :crying:
*PDANet+ works great for USB tether. Not so much with the hot spot feature. The full version is $8 so eh... It works though! No root needed for USB tether with PDANet.
Has @Koush released the source for the PC side app?

Looks like he took the money and ran. Very unprofessional. Everyone needs to remember if/when he releases a new app. I will be the first to say HELL NO. not getting my money.
Windows 10 android tethering apps
I'm on metropcs (t-mobile carrier) on the 'unlimited plan'. I came here seeking support for clockworkmod tether under Windows 10. I am not willing to 'downgrade' back to Windows 7 behind Clockworkmod's lack of support. I can report that the paid versions of both PDAnet and EasyTether work well enough. I would prefer Clockworkmod for the sole reason that it uses real/regular ADB as its middleware, so I can still use other apps like Vysor (to control my device) while tethered. Unlike PDAnet and EasyTether which seem to use hacked version of adb and prevent any other normal usb-pc connectivity (no regular adb apps, so no vnc/vysor). That's a big deal for me since I put my phone is an external antenna holster, because the android device is my sole source of Internet, here, and the ability access my phone via the computer screen makes my life easier. I hope CWM Tether gets fixed, but since they don't seem to care I hope someone comes along with a better product (using real ADB and more support).
Same here - doesn't work on Windows 10
@Koush - you gonna man up?
Guys, I've finally made CM Tether work on Windows 10!
Installation guide for Win10:
At first install CM Tether on your PC as usual.
Then get OpenVPN installer (you can google it)
Uncheck all checkboxes except TAP Virtual Ethernet Adapter in installator if OpenVPN isn't needed.
Install it.
Just run Tether as admin.
It worked for me, contact me if it didn't for you.
thanks
Thank you so much t1meshift! This one worked for me!

Good info, but rather than downloading the OpenVPN installer, get just the TAP-windows NDIS6 package instead.
filename is tap-windows-9.21.2.exe, available from same OpenVPN download page.
Then it works! Awesome.
