Hi everyone.
So Im on prepaid Tmobile (don't really if that affects it).
It used to be flawless in my past android devices. Here, w/ USB it installs the adb driver successfully, then just nothing.
With Wifi Tethering the network shows up there is not internet when connected.
Please help! Im on stock everything except unlocked bootloader
EDIT: It works when USB debugging is on.
Maybe it's the Pre-Paid. Might give you limited abilities.

like 3 tethering apps none of them since to work after update, any info?
They all work on CyanogenMod. <3
tethering works fine on cm6.
easytether is working just fine for me with 2.2 Froyo
same here. And 'funny' enough - when connect USB to comp - my 4G disappear. I didn't have to use anything on 2.1 - just usb sharing . Now tried all 3 progams with no luck. Other usb options are fine. Never rooted.
Thanks

Thats because you are suppose to leave usb as charge only, not usb tethering.
You don't pay for usb tethering, so sprint makes your mobile connection go away when trying to use it. So, use something like easytether, but keep it selected as Charge Only with usb debugging on

Thanks. Connected as charge and works!
Interstingly it shows as local only but whatever, right?
Thanks again, good advice.
The wi-fi hotspot works great on my phone but I can't get USB tethering to work. I wouldn't bother with tethering but the awful battery life on the Desire HD makes this an attractive option since it gives me Internet access on my laptop while the battery charges on my phone (obviously, wi-fi sharing does not do this).
But when I use the "USB tethering" option when I connect my phone to my laptop, it doesn't work. I initially got a device driver error but now, when I connect the phone, I get nothing - no errors, it connects, but nothing happens and I can't access the Internet.
Is this a T-Mobile (UK) issue? Has T=M disabled USB tethering? Or do I need a driver? Or does USB tethering just not work (for anyone)?
Did you install HTC Sync? It install the necessary drivers for USB tethering to work.

Do you have to do this ?
The reason I ask is that I'm thinking if I'm travelling and I want to quickly hook my phone up to someone's machine and do tethering via the USB I won't be able to do it if I don't have HTC Sync, if that is the case that would be balls !

Which version of Windows are you using ?
silly question, but why don't you connect the device to your PC in charging mode only, then fire up the WIFI hotspot?
Or does this not work?
Can you tell me how to install HTC Sync on my Desire HD?

How can i use my wifi enabled mobile phone as wireless adapter for pc,for accessing internet on a desktop pc via usb(by not using mobile's 3g)?
I don't mean the usb tethering prosedure. If anybody knows. I have an old desktop pc without wireless adapter. I know that i could use a cheap wifi usb stick. I just want to know if this is possible.
While I know you can share the 3g connection with your phone, and you use to be able to use the computers wifi connection on the phone.... I don't think you could share the wifi connection with your computer. You can however, picked up a used usb one for a few dollars and a new one from newegg.com for $15.
While there may be a way to do it, .... you're asking a $300 phone to do the job of a simple adapter.

The currently available tethering on WP7 only shares your cellular data connection over WiFi.
There are indications that it might also be possible to share you're cellular data connection over e.g. USB, but I don't think that's been possible (even on unlocked devices) thus far.

a simple adapter (usb modem with a sim card) also does the job that usb tethering offers on optimus 7.
Thank you all for your answers. But i already know what are the currently available tethering (usb and with recently released firmware update internet sharing -cellular data- via wifi on wp7). I just asked if is possible to share phone's Wi-Fi connection to a pc (missing wifi adapter) via USB on wp7. That's all. If anybody knows please reply.

Well like I said, at the moment the only thing that works is Cellular -> WiFi.
WiFi -> USB might work after some registry changes but as far as I know nobody managed to this until now.

Hey guys
I saw something similar to this, but it never got resolved, so I was wanting to reopen it up.
I want to connect to a WiFi network on my android phone/tablet and usb tether to my pc. I want my pc to see the other computers on the wifi network though. I understand that you have to bridge the usb and wifi on the phone/tablet but i have absolutely no clue what the commands would be. Assistance would be greatly appreciated
Same problem
i too have a same kind of problem....waiting for some senior to react..:cyclops::cyclops:
Solution found!
This might help:
You can achieve this natively on some versions of Android (for me it works on KitKat 4.4.4). All you have to do is connect the phone to wi-fi as usual and then connect the USB cable and do a USB tether. Your computer should detect a new hardware - a "USB ethernet" or similar, you may need to install drivers for that, ymmv. Then it behaves just like any other network card. This works for all common operating system, including Windows (where the drivers part may apply).
...
Assuming your computer doesn't have a Wi-Fi card already and you're not rooted, I would probably just buy a USB Wi-Fi card. You can almost certainly buy one for less than the cost of PDANet.

Does anyone know if PDAnet/Foxfi is working on the LG G6 running Android 7.0 Nougat?
Would someone with an activated LS993 mind testing FoxFii 2.19 with PDAnet 4.15?
Just need someone with an activated Sprint LS993 (LGG6) to test FoxFi 2.19 with Full version key. Just install both FoxFi apks on phone and install PDAnet on Windows 7. Test USB mode and bluetooth if possible.

Nope, doesn't work. It says I'm not subscribed to data tethering. This sucks

Can you try USB mode with a cable to see if that works?
Ran into this with the V20. PdaNet does not support wifi tethering with Nougat, and by their statements, it doesn't look like that's going to happen anytime soon, or ever. However, cable tethering does work (speeds may vary a little differently tho) and for devices that support it, Bluetooth tethering does also.
It wasn't until the V20 was rooted that I was able to get a regular wifi hotspot back, which of course rendered my PdaNet useless anyway.
Which wifi hotspot you used?

Cheers!

I was able to use the built-in hotspot, but only after rooting the phone which had it baked into the ROM to workaround the provisioning check. Without rooting though, the only option I had at the time, was to use PDANet while tethered via USB
