Hi there,
We've just developed on Motorola Defy an app for real USB Tethering,
Can anyone test it on Droid/Milestone?
It can share your Motorola's internet connection to your pc!
It's a real tethering not a simply MODEM Tethering, you should NOT pay extra cost to your Carrier!
The app is TOTALLY FREE, thread on xda:
Moto Tethering USB
bye,
Can't use it on milestone says it isn't rooted but it is rooted

I rooted my Droid X and got the wireless tether app to work. My only question is if I use my phone to tether will any extra data charges show up on my account? I have the unlimited data package, but I don't have tethering on my account.

you will not be charged using the Wireless Tether app. Assuming you're refering to this one http://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether/downloads/list
That's the one. Thank you very much.

Ya it works great as long as only one device is connected. However with mine other android phones can't see my wifi as an option, but laptops work fine.

Thats because it is a Ad-Hoc type of wifi. There is still a known problem with windows 7 and ad-hoc networks though (you have to re-establish the connection every time you want to use it on the pc). If you are running xp/vista, you should have no problem reconnecting every time.
There ARE hacked versions of the Motorola Hotspot app that will allow true, non ad-hoc, Hotspot functionality, while still not having to pay for the package. I am using it on my X with Fission 2.1 ROM. TeamBlackHat released it.. search and enjoy.

Do note that VzW can still see your data usage (how much used) and data rate (I THINK they can see this), so they'll have a good idea that you're tethering when you're not supposed to (contract violation, essentially) if you do this too much.
If you're sneaking around VzW to use tethering without paying, then do it sparingly when needed, not excessively... unless you want your contract terminated and other penalties assessed. This isn't the same thing as voiding a warranty, after all. You're essentially pirating bandwidth from them by doing this. Not that I have much of an issue with that, just warning you so you know that they do take this seriously.
My girlfriend recently got a MyTouch 3G, and I was thinking about rooting it for her. I have a couple questions. I've read about some of the Roms and the rooting process.
1. Does the Wireless Tether for root users app work? I saw that some Roms have USB tethering unlocked, which will also work, I just hoping to use Wireless Tether.
2. What ROM would you recommend? I want to be on a Sense based ROM. I haven't figured out if its A or B but it has the headphone jack.

There is no sense rom for the headphone jack, but however there are rom that have root+wireless tether. Go to www.theunlockr.com and there are how to's to root. and there are also all roms for your phone that are linked to xda
You can go here instead to root. There are Sense UI ROM's that you can flash on that phone from the G1 Development Section.
You need to read over this thread and you'll learn a good bit about your myTouch.
wireless tether
I recently rooted my tmobile mytouc 3g and have attempted to download wireless tether for root users from the market place but it doesn't come up. It comes up on the market with my Acer a500 and I even attempted to send it via bluetoothto my phone but it still doesn't allow me to install. It mentioned something about my provider not allowing me to have it. My phone is using clockwork mod with cyanogen 5.0.8-dp. If anyone knows what I can do please help. Thanks
You might try cyanogen 6.1 stable so you can have the 2.2 android that may be the reason its not showing in the market. There are other wifi tether apps as well

Thanks, I'll give it a try
5.0.8 cyanogen on my phone allows teathering. Right in the wifi and network settings.

Xtacy if that doesn't work pm me you email I will send you a wifi tether app that I know works with our phones
Sent from my HTC Dream using XDA Premium App
The built in wifi/Bluetooth tether doesn't work. I think its because of my a500 tab and android 3.0. You think it would be easier because they are both android, oh well. I didn't attempt the update to 6.1 yet.
Well I have a apk that will run on cm6.1 for sure so let me know

I use verizon droid x, have a stock rom, and want to use my device as a router for my notebook. Verizon haas a solution but they charge for it. I can't find an app on the android market for this. Anybody know of an app that can connect free?

Wireless Tether for Root Users
You are going to need to root to use the wireless tether. Or if you don't want to root you can use pdanet or easytether but they are not wireless. You have to plug your phone in with usb to the computer and use their computer programs to connect. If you choose to root so you can use wireless tether check out z4root.

I successfully rooted my wife's Droid 2 on Gingerbread and now when I run the wireless tether app, I get a notification that i'm using the hot spot feature, takes me to a website showing me the cost to adding the hot spot feature and not allowing me to tether unless I pay.
Is there a way to bypass this so that she can use her wireless tether without this nonsense?
Sent from Droid Incredible
There is 'wireless tether for root users' in the market and it is free. It allows for wifi tethering.

That's the app i've been using. Never had a problem on froyo but now with gingerbread, it recognizes that a hotspot has been activated when I turn on the wireless tether for root app.

This will work, I use it myself even on cricket.
Google wifi tether, it will bring you to the current google code versions, itll be something like wifi tether beta7 it will be yellow instead of the typical green
Menu>Settings> Change Device-Profile
Change to Droid X
Done
got a quick link?? I cant find this
Looks like beta 7 was taken down off the site. Beta 6 doesn't work.. Wow how lame, root with no hotspot. this forum is dead

I can confirm that beta 6 works 100%.
Just finally got success on gingerbread rooted Droid 2.
When we opened the settings, 'Droid X (CDMA)' was already selected.
I could have tried it before and selected that option in the past (and this maybe was reading those settings)
but with everything normal except Droid X (CDMA) chosen it works. Try it!

Wireless tether app v. 3 beta11 does not work for me even when set on DroidX (CDMA). Is free wireless tether with root a thing of the past? I've seen the TBH hack, but I don't run windows and I don't know if I trust myself messing with the phone that much...
Works fine for me on the 1/21 build of cm7

Niether one of the above mentioned versions work on my R2D2.
You need to get a hold of the team blackhat zip file that's the wifi hotspot hack, then you will flash it in clockwork mod recovery. After that download the latest wifi tether apk file and it will work.

Anybody get wifi tethering to work on rooted ginger 596?
Yeah Verizon added some code into the stock gingerbread build that lets them detect when an app is attempting to create a wifi network. So it high jacks you to their website. You can either use team black hats wifi tether fix, or use a custom rom that doesn't have that ****ty code in it. I'm currently using MIUI 2.2.10 and its basically a gingerbread rom with ICS features. You can run wifi tether no problem on it, it also has its own built in wifi tethering feature.
If you're gonna stick with gingerbread stock though, team black hats zip fix is most likely gonna be you're only solution.
For months I have used Wireless Teather for root and had no issues. I just obtained a Acer A500 tablet and wanted to use it through the DroidX hotspot. Now every time I try to connect it sends me to the Verizon Hotspot signup page. Any idea? has Verizon caught on someway?
Thanks
There is a tether patch somewhere out there that you can flash that will fix this.
Motorola baked this guard into the Droid X's Gingerbread roms. If you were to use a 2nd-rom such as MIUI or CyanogenMod you wouldn't have this issue.
