Phone wifi tethering to Samsung Tab - Galaxy Tab General

After searching the Web all weekend and not finding answers, I found a solution, that's working for me right now, to connect your P7510 to your wifi tether off your phone. The app I'm using is wifi tether v3.1-beta11, I just set device profile to auto, setup method to auto and boom my galaxy tab recognized and connected to my phone.
If you get the mobile hotspot connection warning from VZW, make sure the ROM that you are using, most usually do, has that feature removed. Hopefully this helps some people out cause I've seen a lot of requests for it when researching this topic myself.
Devices:
HTC Thunderbolt; XDAbolt v2.1
Samsung Galaxy Tab P7510; Stock ICS deodexed Rooted by Tilda
Retired: Moto D1

[Q] Wireless Tether app

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.

They are talking about wifi tethering not usb tethering

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

Wifi tether xoom using an epic or any galaxy s?

so I think I remember doing this before I pushed the over clock kernal to my xoom. Has anyone been able to tether to their samsung galax phone succesfully and use the phones data instead of the xooms 3g? I am using the. 2.0.7 wifi app on the epic and neither wifi or bluetooth will connect. I can pair the bluetooth but there is no profile to enable tethering on the xoom.
If this has been posted before please point me in the right direction.

I'm having the same issues with my Fascinate.
Tethering no problem with my captivate running serendipity 5.12
I can use the Sprint Wireless Hotspot app on my Samsung Epic, Xoom connects to it fine.
For the wireless tether app, I had to install an experimental version on my Epic that will run in infrastructure mode because the Xoom wouldn't see the adhoc network of the normal version.
Samsung Vibrant stock OS set up as WiFi AP connected no issues.
The hotspot app with epic reports error 67... I don't have it setup through sprint I guess, but where did you get the experemental wifi tether? I can only find 2.0.7
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
OK so I restored my epic to viper from, which included wireless tether 3.0- pre **experimental**. Xoom found it and all is good. Thanks guys.

I tether to my Samsung Vibrant, standard Froyo Wifi Hotspot, works great.

Thrive and wireless tether

Running a rooted droid charge. Can't get the thrive to recognize my hotspot! Wtf? Shows up on everything else (i.e. Laptop, buddies, iphone, etc). Is this a limitation of the thrive and is there a workaround? Bought a tablet specifically for this option....
Thx....i apologize if this had been covered before. I googles it and can't find anything definitive.

If the hotspot app you are using only supports adhoc, then that is what your problem is. HC 3.x does not support adhoc networks. It does support infrastructure. You can root the Thrive and add adhoc support.
Bumber. There is no work around via the phone? I was hoping to not have to root the tablet.

Some people have been able to get bluetooth tethering to work.
Got it! Sweet! Played around with the settings in wifi tether. Changed device to samsung fascinate and then mode to samsung soft or whatever and it works perfect! Now I'm sold on the device!

Great to hear. Enjoy the device.

WIFI Tether Fix for CM9 and CM10 on NS4G

Does someone have the current WIFI tether zip file for CM9 and CM10 on the Nexus S 4G?
Why would you need that when both of them support WiFi tethering natively ? Just go to settings under " more" it right there along with NFC & 4g options you will see tethering & portable hotspot

I have not had luck with any tethering app OR native tethering on any JB ROM.
Also, I've never used a ROM (GB, ICS, or JB) that keeps 4G when using native tethering. Only 3G (which is slower than dial-up for me)
I'd like to have a fix for this as well as I use my phone for my home internet.
I keep a backup of stock rooted ICS to switch to from JB when I get home. What a hassle...
I've seen plenty of people posting that are in my same situation.
Here is the link to the app's download page: http://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether/downloads/list
I have the exact same problem. I couldn't get 4G tethering to work on Gingerbread, it works great on ICS and now I'm back to not having it on JB.

I know when I use Cyanogenmod 9 and 10 and turn on the wifi tether app, it showed up as a error but when I used AOKP, it worked flawlessly.
I was just looking for the same thing earlier today! I actually believed that it wasn't possible to have a 4G wifi tether hotspot until a few days ago, because every time I'd tried it (ICS & JB), I'd be knocked down to 3G lol same thing happens with usb tethering too.
on the bright side, 4G tethering works for me on PDANet and through native bluetooth tethering (which I used to use with my macbook pro) and android wifi tether (after a tweak in the settings)
now that the free version of PDANet sucks and I sold my MBP and am back to a bluetooth-less PC, a fix or something would be great

I have the same issue. No matter how many settings I try, there are errors one place or another.

I even tell CyanogenMod on their Facebook page that it does not work and yet they do not respond.
I have the same issue with any jb rom. Are you guys on sprint as well? I saw another post where the guy said this happens with sprint users and to use foxfi, pdanet, or easytether to get 4g tethering. This worked for me with ics roms but not jb. Whenever I try to tether with a jb rom, I lose my data connection completely.

I too was having a wifi tethering issue, although mine was worse, I was losing all data connection when I attempted to activate the hotspot, however, when I switched over to this AOSP ROM (http://forums.androidcentral.com/sp...aosp-jellybean-v2-2-jro03l-8-13-12-a.html#anb) over on AndroidCentral, my wifi tether began working. It initially kicks me off 4g, but in certain parts of my home (the restroom to be specific), I can get it to kick over to tethering on 4g, but I just need to be patient. There is also a tethering fix zip somewhere in that thread, but I don't know if it'd work on either CM9 or 10.
I had this same problem on CM9 (WIFI or USB tethering didn't work). I figured out that it happened when I would flash the Trinity Kernel. If I used the kernel that came with the ROM it worked fine. Unfortunately I can't speak for the 4g because I don't live in a 4g area. Now that I've flashed CM10 I've used Air Kernel and I haven't lost my native tethering capapbility.

Ad hoc

Hello. I was trying to tether my Samsung galaxy tab 7.0 to my atrix 2 and the tab its not able to see it. Has anybody try to tether? Or does anybody have any thoughts about it?
Sent from my GT-P3113 using xda app-developers app
don't know what app you use but the last time I did anything like this I used the app "Foxfi" running on my Razr Maxx and connected my laptop to it without any issue, should work with the tab since it basically just makes the phone a wifi "hotspot".
Ad Hoc GT2 7 FTW!!!

IF your just trying to tether fox fi, now called pdanet+ works like a champ and can be found in the app store. But if anyone can help me enable ADHOC on a Gtab2 7 I would be eternally give up family members (mom or first child) grateful. I got 12 of them and am trying to get them to work with "serval mesh". They work in client mode but i'm trying to make a huge adhoc sip network for infra-stature-less communications.
