[GUIDE]Sharing wired/non-wired connection on pc with phone - Android Software Development

May be most of the ppl here knw about this. basically for the newbies or those who have a great working wired connection with a slow network connection.
this is different for all operating system. but i will be brief.
win 7/vista(not perfect)
u will need connectify. get it herehttp://www.connectify.me
install it. let its driver get installed.
before running delete all the ad-hoc networks. it may work along with ad-hoc network but crashes some times. start it. if using a free version then use only the wired network.(not automatic).click start. done
find the network on ur phone.(use passkeys, recommended)
win xp(lower)
get virtual router here http://www.virtualrouter.codeplex.com
install it. open it and click start. simple.
but sometimes fails. so i would say use connectify.
for mac/linux i dnt have any ideas.sorry guys.

Remote NDIS based Internet Sharing Device Driver

Had a search and found 1 or 2 things but they never worked for me. Anyway I have complied this driver for Windows XP so all you need to do is add it to your Internal Storage, plug it in to your computer copy it to your PC, then set your phone to internet sharing. When it moans that it dosn't know where the driver is, point it to them and it should work.
I just tested it on an XP machine and it worked so hopefully it will work for you.
If there is already a solution for this please let em know.

4.2.6 USB tethering
I downloaded the drivers but don't know where to put them. I think I'm not doing something right.
1. Plug in phone via USB (dont' have "Wireless tether for root users running")
2. settings / wireless controls/ "click" internt tethering
3. go to PC and wireless network connections, select G1Tether and click connect. it will not connect
is this a driver problem? do i need "wireless tether for root users" running?
help
thanks... vista and windows 7 has the drivers inbuilt but not for windows xp..
Driver works on Magic 32A with SuperD 1.5.1, WinXP SP2.
Thank you very, very much
Maciek.
Worked beautifully for me!
Worked great for me!
Thanks,

I cannot get these drivers to work. I'm using an xp machine and every time I turn on the usb tethering, it automatically installs drivers identified as "HTC remote ndis remote device" and it has a big yellow ! next to it. I tried pointing at your folder for the device wizard and it says it couldn't locate better drivers to install. What am I missing here?
I have the same issue with you, waiting for the solution.

Try tell it that you will select the driver manually. Then click the "Have Disk" button and point to the inf of this driver. That should install it regardless of what Device Manager thinks is the best drriver.
Been having trouble getting wired tether to work also. In device manager I had a yellow "!" sign on USB composite device, installed the driver from this thread and the caution sign disappeared - still no tethering though
I suppose I'll just have to make do with wireless tether.
when I point that file as the driver it tells me it isnt for that device.
Connect your phone, then when it says it has found new hardware but cant install it, go to the device manager, double click the and click reinstall driver.
Point the folder to where ever you saved the driver too and it should install.

Works
Worked for my Nexus 1 Cyanogen 5.0.5
Thanks to you for posting this and to the user who posted the info about vista and 7 having the driver already. I was scratching my head as to why this worked on my home laptop (vista) and not my work laptop (xp).
i got an old fossil
Windows 2000.....is this possible?
Thanks you! Something that finally works!
I have a question. My PC at work still has its normal LAN connection through a network card. Now I have this second connection through my G1. If I make a web request with Firefox, which connection will it use? Do I have to disable the LAN connection to guarantee that it uses the G1? Or is there someway to make Windows default to the G1 if it's attached, and use the LAN otherwise?
Works for USB tethering using Android 2.2 (Froyo) and Windows XP
Thanks for the driver. FYI I was able to use it with Android 2.2's built-in USB tethering and Windows XP SP3.
Unrooted Nexus One with stock Android 2.2 (Froyo)
this worked for me, thanks!

"all you need to do is add it to your Internal Storage" The file you posted is to get the driver on your computer working, right? Am I copying ANY file at all to the phone or?

Problem with internet sharing

Ive tried to connect my Hero to my laptop to use it as a modem, but it isn't working. Ive tried to enable mobile network and internetsharing. Looks like I don't have the NDIS driver. How do I fix this. I have the newest version of htc sync.
Hi Killbox,
I tried for hours and hours to get it to work and couldn't so I gave up in the end.
I tried every driver I could, everything was set up to sync properly on my phone/laptop, NDIS driver installed. No joy.
Try getting hold of the WiFi Tether .apk file and install it on your Hero.....or install Modaco's Custom Hero Rom on your phone. It has WiFi Tether included and it's a damn quick rom
It's a piece of cake to use. Once installed on your phone, fire up the app and 'Start Tethering'. Once running, see if your PC will pick it up as a wireless network point. If it does, connect to it and you should be using your phones 3G network for the internet on your PC.
Job done!

If the NDIS driver isn't loaded, you will have a device called "Android Phone" in Device Manager. You need to manually update the driver with the NDIS driver, which can be found wherever you installed HTC sync (in my case, C:\Program Files\HTC\HTC Driver\Driver Files\Vista_x86).
Regards,
Dave
I tried to reinstall the driver from device manager by choosing update manually. It said the newest driver was allready installed. I tried to install Modaco, but I just got error messages so I gave up. Is it really impossible to share internet?
Works fine here with orange updated Rom, do what Dave said, as I couldn't get it to work until I went rooting around the HTC folder, 1 thing though my HTC sync never works unless I reboot my phone and sync straight after startup.
Now I have installed the Modaco rom, but it still won't work. Have tried to update the driver in the device manager without success. The tether program won't work either.
Im using PDANet 1.16 with Android for tethering, works flawlessly, give it a try.

Tethering HTC-HD2 with Android

Hi,
I can't seem to get my HTC-HD2 (T-mobile) working for tethering. I just flashed my phone with the Android 2.2 OS successfully but when i plug my phone in via USB, Windows XP can't install the driver manually or automatically. I Installed the Google USB Drivers via SDK Manager for the "Android Hardware Found" message but for some reason it tells me the driver was not found.
I don't know if i doing this right. Do i need a driver for the HTC-HD2?
I am trying to connect to the internet with the phone instead of using the hotspot which interferes with other wireless devices. This is prohibited at my job so I was wondering if tethering would work with my HTC-HD2...
..Sorry for posting this in the wrong section.
Thanks
Nevermind...Fixed.
Should've have done some searching first before i posted.
Thanks
I am having the same problem but with Windows 7. Can you tell me what did you do to fix this issue?
for pdmj, please dont say "nevermind i figured it out" If you are going to make a topic at least post to it what you found instead of causing yet more topics to pop up without answers.

maan it was "theshadow1234" who figured it out and its pissing me off much too that he wasnt able to post a solution to this mo******in problem Oo
I got "Wi-Fi Tether v3_0 pre14" working on BOYPPC-SHIFTPDA Gingerbread SD Build V7.
But only in AD-HOC mode. I think, it will work on any ROM. You just need to specify connection mode from 'master' to 'AD-HOC' and your computer will connect without any limitations automatically. Good luck!

By the way is there way to make the connection encrypted?

[Q] Android does not support internet ?! o.O

hello, i got new problem, is there any chanse to use my PCs internet (it's not wireless!) on my android hd2 via USB cable ....
Yes, you can do reverse tethering (although I have never tried).
Reverse tethering works best, apparently, on ubuntu linux: http://blog.mycila.com/2010/06/reverse-usb-tethering-with-android-22.html
hey, thx for this, but i dont understand this, what is USB Tethering, setting the 'bridge' up, how to do this, can i have some ... 'details' pls )) .
Which step are you stuck on, and are you on linux?
well.... im not on Linux, im on Windows 7, anyway, i found out what is USBTethering, but when i check that (i have drivers installed from SDK) nothing heppens, i dont know what to do, i dont know how to 'bridge'
step 2:
Connect USB cable and activate USB Tethering. You should see on linux or windows a new network interface. ---> where the hell is 'new network interface' -.-

Hi,
Does your phone connect to pc when you plug in usb cable?
Does your pc have latest version of WMDC?
This contains the drivers for successful connection.
If (And only if) you're using a Desire HD rom then just plug in your USB cable, choose "Internet Pass-through", let windows install the drivers (W7), enjoy internet on your device.
But if you're using another rom, follow the other advices from our fine members
Well.... my phone is connected with cable, im using windows7 ... all drivers are installed i got HTC dream composite ADB interface in control panel in 'android phone' device detected. im trying to USB thetering...but problem is that i still dont have internet acces from my pc, to my phone. i installed wired tether via my VPN ... but still i dont know what to do ... can someone pls explain ....
even i wanted to know how to do this
i am using windows 7
my hd2 android(rom: angel death v1.4) gets connected with pc but in network and sharing centre it shows "no access to internet".
i am having ethernet connection on pc.

Clockworkmod tether not working in windows 10

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?
Sent from a potato using Kung-Fu
Same problem - hello @Koush ! Any progress on this?
Thanks,
J
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.
