I have tried to get get Orbot working with the Nexus 7, but haven't been able to get it to work on several ROM, kernel, and and browser combinations.
It says that proxy rules were not enabled and a check of the website says that I am not configured for Tor. Any ideas?

There's a setting to use the device's built-in iptables ("Use Default Iptables" near the bottom), check the box and it should work just fine.
You da man, that worked.

It's great that I can use something like Teamviewer or Connectbot to connect to my home PC and download a file (onto the PC) remotely, from anywhere in the world using my fast and (practically) unlimited home broadband.
What I'd like to then do is download that file onto my Nexus 7. And occasionally upload files. However, neither Connectbot nor Android Terminal Emulator have scp built in and, while Teamviewer claim that their latest version has the ability to transfer files, it hasn't appeared on the Play Store yet.
Does anyone know of any other relatively simple solution to this problem? By simple I mean that I don't want to set up the PC as an ftp server. The home PC runs Kubuntu 12.04, by the way.

AirDroid won't work over the Internet, only on a local LAN. Or, at least, it won't work from the free WiFi access points that I use.

Thanks for the suggestion. There are surprisingly few. But now I've had time to check them out I've found VX Connectbot which adds file upload and download plus other features to the original Connectbot.

I know this is an old thread, but did you ever figure out how to use SCP on VX Connectbot? It's surprisingly not documented well on the Net, on its homepage or on Github. This thread came up on Page 2 of a Google search!
No, I didn't get that far. I found that TeamViewer fitted my specific use case.

I have found a way to get WiFi tethering to work on Android L.
The app is called "WiFi Tether Router" on the Play store.
Note: The app is $2.50
The app didn't work before but it was updated today so I tried it again and it worked perfectly. (Watched Netflix on my tablet and YouTube on my laptop.)
Has anyone else tried it and also worked for them?
Also, if anyone knows of a free alternative that works on android L I'd appreciate it if you told me.

Make sure your APN is set to ipv4 instead of IPv6. Also in advanced WiFi settings , unchecked "scanning always available".
I'm on Rogers using L ... I cannot get this app to work. I've set it to ipv4 and unchecked "Scanning always available" but I still can't get it to work.
Anyone have this working on AT&T or Rogers and if so did you change any settings in the app? (there are quite a few in the app)
Working for me... One more q do you know if this counts data.. Meaning towards the 5gb teather on the plan

buraktamturk has discovered a solution to tethering on L:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=54067884&postcount=3041
Lightbulb Tethering Fix
Here is solution for tethering (both usb and wireless).
Tether just as usual. Then disable tethering and re-enable it. (this step is important otherwise dhcp server is not started)
After doing that both your phone and computer will not connect internet, because of invalid routing table. (internal bug from l preview)
just connect to the phone shell with 'adb shell', or terminal software on android (connectbot or android terminal emulator will fine)
Code:
[email protected]:/ $ su
[email protected]:/ # ip route | grep rmnet0 | grep link
10.64.70.120/29 dev rmnet0 proto kernel scope link src 10.64.70.124
Note the gateway here (10.64.70.124), and set this default gateway. (and yes, my provider gives me nat'ed private ip addresses)
Code:
[email protected]:/ # route add default gw 10.64.70.124 dev rmnet0
Enjoy the tethering!
Note your phone must be rooted otherwise you will not able to pass beyond 'su' command.

I packaged up the following in a sh script that gets run with Tasker when enabling tethering (I use it for my Nexus 7 in my car):
Code:
#!/bin/sh
ip=$(ip route | grep mnet0 | grep link | sed 's/.*src //')
route add default gw ${ip} dev rmnet0
I saved the above in /sdcard/gateway.sh
I then run a command in Tasker:
Code:
/system/bin/sh /sdcard/gateway.sh
I "think" this is working. Since I ran it manually, the IP is now stored in the routing table. If the IP switches and tethering suddenly stops working, ill know it's not functioning anymore and will tweak the script.

I got tethering working just fine on L using the same tethering.dun.required mod as on kitkat

If you want to continue to use stock room, and need hot spot, there is a trick using the app shortcut master from the market where you just have to edit 1 line . It works on LG g2 and g3 (I used it). If anyone wants to try, I'll look for a link to the directions.

Good work. That is exactly what I was referring to. Thank you. I hadn't seen the request. I have no idea if it would work on HTC 10. But, it doesn't seem like a huge stretch that it would.

No good. Those values don't show up in shortcut master.
Anyone had any luck with this? I can't find the file that OMJ is talking about to save my life. I don't see any attachments.
I've tried editing my build.prop and I've tried editing the default xml to change the rules and enforcement to 0.
The latter DID let the hotspot start for me. Other devices can connect. But they never get network connectivity.
Can anyone help me confirm what I'm missing?
Fabio Grasso's WiFi Tether app works for me on the 10.

I can't get it to work on mine! I've achieved root, installed the app, matched all the settings up....no internet connection. It's strange, my Ipad can see the network and it says it's connected. As soon as I connect it though I lose internet connection on both devices, can't load a single web page. Did you have this issue at all or would you have any idea what would cause this? I'm at my wits end with it, and I've used this app for 2 years on my M8.

HAH. I couldn't get it to work with this app (not initially anyway). I turned to his site to check if there were settings already available to use for the HTC 10 because it couldn't auto-detect the wifi adapter name. On his site, it says HTC users need to uninstall "TetherGuard" - system app.
Did that, figured I'd reboot and try the built in tethering which now works beautifully. Got it still within my refund window for Wifi Tether Router.
So some combination of what I posted above plus UNINSTALL TETHERGUARD! And life's good now. Thanks much.

It didn't give me the option to uninstall, just disable. I did that and tweaked with a few more things and that seemed to fix it. Fingers crossed!

You can use Titanium Backup to uninstall TetherGuard since you're rooted, instead of just disabling it.
Anyone want to post the specific changes/tweaks they've done? I've done changes to build.prop and default.xml (using the various settings found all over XDA) and also disabled/removed TetherGuard, but I'm still stuck at hotspot enabling but no data connection for any connected devices (data still works for the phone while hotspot is on though).
