I had barnacle working on my X10...all was well tethering with the TF....and now when I fire up Barnacle it says "waiting for wifi to be disabled" and it disables my wifi!
It MIGHT be related to the rom I'm using...I was using a 2.2 rom and now I'm using a 2.1 based rom....
Can someone help?
mine has always turned off the wifi on 2 differant phones
I realize now that it's supposed to disable wifi...but my issue is I guess that Barnacle never really starts...it just sits there at "waiting for wifi to be disabled" and never connects.
And this is even if wifi is disabled.
I just noticed that if I pre-disable my wifi...barnacle just hangs at "starting"
silly question but is your phone rooted.

Hey guys, newbie user and android owner.
I picked up the vibrant the other day. So far its rooted, android-wifi-tether, and i performed the gps fix on it.
I really like the phone, but whenever I connect to my wifi router, it stops all data (android market, web browser, etc) It says connected and doesn't show any signs of problems. Am I doing something wrong?
Thanks for any help you can throw my way.
Hmm. Mine has problems with "No Connection" when it's connected to my wireless at home, but I just figured it was my router's fault since my computer gives me the "unable to load web page" thing all the time too. My router sucks, though. Maybe your does too?
Yeah, mine does it sometimes too. I just turn on airplane mode, and turn it back off...works fine after that. Its a hit or miss issue.
Mine works fine running off if my router. Btw, do you actually have the wi-fi tether working? Because I thought we needed a working kernal for that to work.
Feeling Vibrant on xda-app
Yup that did it for me. All I had to do was turn on airplane mode and then turn it back off. Wifi working for me now. Thanks.

Please tell us how you got wifi tethering to work without a custom kernel.
From XDA App on SGS-Vibrant
you know, i have a similar issue, where im connected to my router but i dont get internet and 3g goes away the moment i connect to wifi... airplane mode didnt help tho... its interesting really..
ive tried other routers and my phone can get wifi w/internet from them
i did factory reset on my phone 3 times trying to figure this out; 2 of the three times i got wifi to work w/internet until i disconnected and connected again. then i just got the same problem all over again
barnacle tether used to work before i installed xrecovery now it wont start i keep getting message that its disabling wifi when its not even on i even tried reinstalling the app but its the same message and wifi tether gives error permissions dont think it works on x8
works for me,
running 2.3.3 -cm7rc4
only issue I have is that when i go to close the application it turns off the phone.
that never happened to me that it turns opff the phone.
all day trying to fix barnacle it works itself ,thats messed up.
if barnacle doesnt work try wifi tether not sure if you can get working internet connection of it though as i got an error mesage on my x8
I got Wireless Tether 2.0.7 because I need infastructure mode to work for my wifi Xoom.
It's not working at all in Gingerbread...takes forever to start, and if it does, always starts with "errors." And it won't show up on my Xoom.
In Froyo, it worked...mostly. After using it once, the phone has to be rebooted, or the wifi tether will cause the phone to freeze.
It had been working fine uptil 2.0.6, but that doesn't have infastructure mode.
Has anyone been successful to get this to work?
Btw I am running Geo's Gingerbread ROM.
I actually just solved this problem on my phone. Goto there Google page and get the newest one. http://code.google.com/p/android-wi...tail?name=wifi_tether_v3_0-pre13.apk&can=2&q=

hey did you get this to work?
I tried all the versions here
http://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether/downloads/list
and from version 2.0.7 up to beta version WiFi Tether for Root Users 3.1-beta6 *** BETA ***
I cannot get a good transmission from my HTC EVO 4G. When I turn the app on it indicates that the speeds are 10megs but when I use speednet to test the speed I only get less than a meg. Now I turn off wifi tether and speednet takes off superfast. I also tried wired tether and I get awesome speeds. My problems is wifi tethering
Any help please
Okay, so i recently rooted my Intercept so i could remove the crapware. I also tried to tether it so i could use my nook tablet everywhere. I tried https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.googlecode.android.wifi.tether
this one. and i tried barnacle. I realize now that one problem was that these apps make ad-hoc nets, and some devices don't see them. I didn't get barnacle working, and the other one worked the first time then got errors every time i tried to start it after. Now i've uninstalled those apps and i can't use my wi-fi normally. The check mark is unchecked in the settings and it says Error below it. I click it on and it doesn't work. Help? Any hints? Did i do something stupid?

Are you using a rooted ROM?
I've had luck on the Intercept using both Wireless Tether for Root Users and Widgetsoid and adding the widget to the screen with the Wifi Tether Icon.
I've always just done the settings changing the SSID to AndroidAP with open/no security. Using these settings I've had no trouble tethering devices from my TF101 to Windows and Ubuntu laptops.
If you are still having issues, drop me a line and I'll walk you through.
Cheers!
Suddenly WiFi Hotspot stopped while I was in CM11. I upgraded to CM12 still the same issue. When switch on wifi hotspot nothing happens. Previously it use give a notification saying that Tethering or WiFi hotspot active. But now nothing happens, no notification. Wifi works as usual but not WiFi Hotspot. I badly need a solution. Please anyone help me.

Same issue here. Im using CM12.1, then I installed Orbot and runs as service. Portable hotspot did run OK with VPN running. This morning after I reboot my device, suddenly other device can't connect to hotspot (very long connecting progress). After I remove Orbot, it fixed.
Another solution can be read HERE that may comply to your issue.
