How much did you get yours for
Sent from my HERO200 using XDA App

Dude, no way. As per your status, it looks like you have a hero. Root your hero using SuperOneClick (google it), and install wireless tether. Gives you a wifi hotspot, its the best thing EVER. no tether either. AND no $$. Beastly.

What kernel are you running and which model PS3? Newer line or older?
Mine doesn't read Wireless Tether yet, but the dev's are close to having Compat-Wireless done I think, and that will solve the problem.

No more free Wifi tether from Tmobile?

I had the HTC HD2 with Tmobile and would wifi tether all the time. Heck, I was using it to wifi tether just last week.
Now I just got the Mytouch 4G and it doesnt work. I called Tmobile and they said I have to pay $15 a month. WTF? I am new to this phone so I wanted to know if anyone has a work around for this. I DO NOT want to flash a custom rom. I rooted and I'm happy, just need to wifi tether.
Thanks

They did this months ago. Just takes while to get busted. Mine still works. Theres a sticky some where here for a work around. Would give you a link but I'm using my phone to post.

Thought they blocked by detecting something in the data being sent/received? If what you posted works thats cool was just wondering because I'll be using it once I'm blocked

Have a work around. Wifi thether for root users. Its an app that works great and have been using it for over an hour now.

(Hit thanks)

Have you ever been blocked? I know when I had my cliq xt using this app I was fine for about a month and they started redirecting me to the sign up data tethering page. There is something in settings you can change to avoid that page. The steps were here on xda but can find it now.
Let us know how it goes.

I've been using it for the past five hours with no problems
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA Premium App

Did some reading. Guess there going off of usage. Like when I was using it with my cliq(thinking it was still free) I was a heavy user for a month got a text from tmobile saying it could be blocked with the right plan. 2 days later is when I got redirected to the sign up page.
So think as long as we don't over use it we can get away with not having to get the 15 add on.

Its been know that once you get over 5gb you get throttled and possibly forced to pay the 15 bucks I think

Barnacle wifi tether in the market if you are rooted. Works great. Use it every day.

I have a rooted mt4g and wifi tether was not working. Instead of istalling the new beta versions, install the old version for htc's only and it should work.

What's up guys! Esteway, you will learn a whole new way to root install recovery etc. Once you get cwm on board just go about flashing as normal. Shabbypenguin made a one click root to make it easier but its almost too easy
Sent from my Nexus S 4G using Tapatalk

I just made the same switch and am happy with the phone. Rooting is a bit trickier at first but fastboot is quite cool and easy to use. Read the rooting instructions carefully.... I scared myself a few times. You won't need odin or heimdall anymore.

Custom Roms and Tethering Detection?

I am new here to Aria and ATT. I was wondering if ATT can detect tethering on all Cusom Roms?
Sent from my HTC ThunderBolt using XDA Premium App

Yes... It's where the data terminates is how they can detect it. That and packet inspection.

I guess no one has figured out a way to stop detection like the devs on the cdma carriers.
Sent from my HTC ThunderBolt using XDA Premium App

ClockworkMod's new Tethering app is supposed to be undetectable -- although the app itself is not free (you can use it for a few weeks as a trial though) and it only supports USB tethering. Still might be worth a look: https://plus.google.com/103583939320326217147/posts/1Yy1jb9z4TA
You won't find it on the Market though because AT&T has blocked it. You'd have to sideload it.

Thanks. Pda supposedly has a stealth mode. I wonder how good that is compared to clockwork?
Sent from my HTC ThunderBolt using XDA Premium App

my HTC Aria rooted and using CY7 (nightlies) tethered to a laptop and to an HTC tablet with AT&T service. Didn't do it much, but did use it on several occasions, never had an AT&T problem..
