I have stock ROM (the original, not the new version).
I've installed the Wifi tether app from OMarket (Mobile Wifi Router), which is the same as the one on the stock UK ROM.
It works just fine but the problem I ran into was when someone called me and I was talking to the person, I was unable to browse on my laptop.
Usually I am able to talk and browse at the same time on the phone.
My office location gives me Full signal at H (custom icon set) speeds all the time. So it wasn't an issue with 3G not available.
Anyone else has had the same problem? Any solutions?
Use the wire for tether, talk and surf.
1st post here, did look around to see if i could find an answer first. Has anyone utilized the TRansformer Dock (with its USB Port) to connect to a 3G or 4G network. I'm in Canada and might pick up a USB Data Stick if I know that I'd be able to use it for those times that wifi is unavailable.
I've tried with a Huawei usb stick provided by Vodafone but as expected it doesn't work.
On the other hand you can get a wifi 3G modem, so that you share the 3G connection via wifi. This works just great.
I use a wifi modem all day in the office, and use my EVO as a wifi hotspot when I am mobile. Both work great.
Anyone else experiencing this? My Verizon 7.7 has unreliable tethering on FoxFi, Wifi Tether, and the native tethering app. They all start up fine, but after about 10 min. the tablet's data connection starts to go in and out. Once I turn off tethering, the data connection becomes stable again. My Thunderbolt has no issues on Wifi Tether using the same SIM card.

My tablet is perfect on stock ics wifi tether, purchased in antwerp belgium, used in united kingdom.
CM9 port is nice but no wifi tether option, so using stock rom which I think is a nice job from samsung, transformed this device.

Hmmm...maybe it's just an issue with the Verizon version.

Bad luck, they probably added something in to make the experience poor and deter you from sharing the connection, in my experience best to steer clear of large controlling american companies if possible,

Just curious, what is the advantages of using external tethering apps over stock tethering option in Galaxy tab?
BTW i use stock bluetooth tethering and found no issue.
Sent from my GT-P6800 using xda premium
After upgraded to official ICS, i cant do a tethering anymore. My gtab is bought from malaysia. Anyone experiencing this also?
Similar problem with rooted 6800 after a clean ICS install. Tethering is working fine, but only until the screen shuts off. After that the stock tethering shuts also off.
Tried other apps like Wifi Tether and Barnacle, but have the same problem. After switching on, Barnacle says that it is interfering with Wifi Manager, whatever it means.
I have no task killer
I use usb tether on my gt-6800 running HC.
I sometimes get losses of Internet connectivity but I'm not sure if it is down to the signal where I use the tether. Eg. I was getting it a lot a few weeks ago but recently it's been pretty stable.
The lease on the IP seems to need renewing every hour and it's often around then that problems can happen.
Greetings people.
I am a new user of Nexus 4 which I bought 3 days ago. Yesterday I encountered a strange problem with my Nexus which I did not have with my previous phone (Xperia Sole). A friend of mine asked me to make my Nexus a hotspot so he could connect to the internet. So what I did was to open my 3G and then use WiFi hotspot. Firstly my friend could connect to my Nexus WiFi but he couldn't access the internet although I could. Then I tried to close and re-open my 3G (without disabling hotspot) and he managed to connect to internet that way. But I couldn't from my Nexus. I never had a same issue with the Xperia. I could connect normally to the internet while using my phone as a hotspot. I was wondering if this is a normal case or should I try something else.
Using Stock Rom 4.4 KitKat and Stock Kernel.
Thanks in advance.
Hi all. My first post.
I'm wondering if someone familiar to this issue can help me.
I'm having problems getting my Motorola Xoom MZ604 WiFi tablet to get the internet connection working. As the title says, I just got my new T-Mobile locked LG G2 to work on my Straight Talk/T-Mobile service, data and all.
After setting up the Mobile HotSpot feature on my G2, and setting up the wifi configuration on the Xoom end (WiFi MAC address and all)...I only get h**p://androidapi.t-mobile.com/apppack/mvno.html web address stuck on my Xoom Dolphin browser. I had no connection problems though when I was running the same Straight Talk/T-Mob service on my old unlocked Acer Liquid MT. The wifi tethering to my Xoom then was pain free, from the start.
Anyone in the know?
Anyone..please help.
