So I was checking around to see if T-mobile will support tethering and I found this blog that was written today. No T-Mobile Tethering Support.
Here's what it says if you don't want to click the link:
"As many of you know, stock Android 2.2 supports tethering out of the box. However, the folks over at TmoNews have discovered that while this is the case, the T-Mobile G2 will not support tethering at launch. See T-Mobile's official comment regarding this below:
“T-Mobile does not currently support handset tethering or offer a tethering rate plan. Though tethering and Wi-Fi sharing will not be initially supported on the T-Mobile G2, we know that consumers are interested in these features and we are working to develop a solution to support them in the future.”
While this is disappointing, the good news is that T-Mobile appears to be working on a solution as they know people are very interested in this. Let's hope we all get to tether officially soon.
So folks, do you think this will happen? Do you think G2 owners will ever get the option?"
Root + WiFi Tether will fix that ASAP.
T-Mobile does not support tethering anymore
T-Mobile does not support tethering any phone it is against the terms and conditions of your contract.
That said T-Mobile also does not do take any steps to block tethering, they do not block apps like pda.net or easy tether. Smartphone data speeds will get throttled once you reach 10 Gigs of data usage.

Then T-Mobile should deploy SWAT team to kill whoever do tethering.
i have seen the settings.apk from the G2 and it had tethering option so it may work but they won't actually provide helpdesk support for it
It probably has the USB tether left in tact, Like most phones do now. The wifi tethering they remove.
Just an FYI: the reason why tmobile doesn't BLOCK tethering is because they *CAN'T*. There is NO WAY FOR THEM TO KNOW that you are tethering or that you have a tethering application installed on your phone.
carrier way of blocking tethering is to block/remove from market
CyanogenMod.
Cyanogen's already got a G2 build ready to go, if I understood one of his recent tweets... we just need actual phones and a root method.
I can't wait lol
i must have missed that tweet, that sounds awesome, we just need to get root on it and we're good to go, ENG build and stock build(root and un-root) just need to get device in hand and try a few things to get root
Has anyone tried to do usb tethering?
By apps or configuring the pc?
Similiar to this thread in the samsung vibrant section:
HOWTO: Tethering in windows 7 (no app needed!)
*I cant post link need mod approval
well my G2 demo does not seem to have the option, although the settings apk from the shipped rom thread had it when i put it on my slide, so no native tether on G2 which is upsetting as hell
PDA NET WIRED tether works on my T-mobile G2 on windows 7 64
does this interest anyone?
Yes thats good that pda app works, thx.
If thats the only way to tether then I have to buy the app.

T-mobile may not "officially" support tethering but their tech support was very helpful
when I was having issues tethering my TM506 to my netbook back in 08
I went over 10GB last month and never even had my speed throttled. I moved and used my N1 as a wireless hotspot for about 2 weeks before I got my cable hooked up. I regularly go over 5GB without tethering at all.

Anyone have any ideas if the 3G will be worth it, there are some discouraging posts over at the notion ink blog, in the comments section, about the bandwidth limitations on the 3G models and them being selected for you, instead of allowing us to pick our own.
(I am one of the ones that did not get a pre-order in on time)
It would be considered a new contract on AT&T so you would not have unlimited data. Also in the US it is only for AT&T
Why thank you for that, being a sprint person, and an Android lover, AT&T is certainly not something I want to deal with, at least that helps me with my decision, I'll just have to use a USB Sprint 4G adapter... :

If you have an android phone I would recommend root it and install wifi tether. Rooting is a very simple process for the EVO at unrevoked.com and I am not sure if it will have support for a usb adapter. You might get the MiFi that is coming to Sprint soon.
Interesting topic. Since I am also on Sprint, its probably better off just getting the Wifi version and wifi tether to the EVO or pdanet. Now when Traveling overseas where Sprint doesn't work (except Jamaica and Taiwan) I guess the wifi will have to just do.

Can you tether an Android device to an Android device? I have purchased EasyTether, I use it for work when I have to drive between states, but did not know they made an Android app to tether to, I thought it only worked on PC's. I'll have to go to their website and look into it.
On Android if you root it you can install a WiFi Tether application that allows you to turn your phone into a hot spot without having to pay Sprint.

I thought WifI Hotspot tethering was a standard feature in Froyo...
I have it on my Desire (yes it's rooted, but I think the hotspot functionality was part of the original ROM).

It is a standard feature but the service providers locked it down so you would have to pay them to use it. The nexus one and s are the only ones that have it enabled.
You can pick your carrier with the adam
Rohan's interview on Android Police states:
AP: Regarding the 3G model, how many frequency sets are being offered? In the US, AT&T and T-Mobile run on different 3G bands, necessitating at least two US 3G models.
Rohan: Initially we offered only one 3G module which was suited for AT&T, but then when customers requested we changed their models. From next pre-order everyone will be given an option of deciding their own 3G module for a specific frequency.
So, if you have already pre-ordered but want a different carrier...email them and provide your order info with your carrier preference. If you pre-order now you will have an option to indicate your choice
Data limitations will be determined by cell carrier not this device. And yes, every company but Sprint has a limit on data right now. Come to think of it, Sprint might have a limit for their USB hotspot and for the devices that have an EVDO radio in them, not sure on that.
Regardless as others stated, if this bothers you just wifi tether. But I have a Chrome Netbook with a verizon connection in it and I love it. Not having to deal with wifi tether all the time is nice.

I just ordered my Adam and the only model left was the Pixel Qi 3G version. If I had a choice, I would have gone wifi only because I don't have AT&T as a carrier (I have Verizon). Was it just me that found a lack of info on the website about the 3G carrier requirements? It wouldn't have changed my order (because I ordered to late), but it seemed a little vague. I'm still stoked to get the adam though.
Cheers!
The FCC has ruled that charging $20/month for wifi tethering was illegal and fined Verizon 1.25 million for charging us that fee. I ran Barnacle tether on my Droid X and used it as a hotspot for my Nook Color. I didn't get the Verizon $20/month screen. Sweeeet!

Not the case today...I'm getting that very page telling me I have to pay up if I want to tether...and I'm rooted.
Verizon probably won't release an update just to remove the inability to tether on the Droid X, I doubt they're under that much legal pressure.
You might want to try calling Verizon with the information from the FCC and see if they will add tethering to your plan, free of charge.
If they do follow through with the ruling --leave it to big red to always find a loophole -- it will probably be on upcoming devices.

This is what happens when you dont research.
The tbh tether hack is obviuosly still valid, so why bother with a market app that may or may not work?
Just use the tbh hack, now that its legal verizon cant do squat. I believe you can file a complaint with the fcc if you really want. I know i would.

RESEARCH before dl the file there are a couple dif versions make sure its for your phone.

621-rooted Tether options
I acquired a DroidX already OTA to 621. I got it rooted etc and have been running SteelDroid and 621_Modded_1.0_kY-Signed.zip.
SteelDroid allows me to use Wifi Tether fine, but USB Tether does not work.
kY-Mod does not have USB Tether (from Settings/Networks) but it has "3G Wifi Hotspot" built in. This redirects me to some VZ DUN crap page. But if I run Wifi Tether (aka Barnacle aka Wireless Tether) the 3G Wifi Hotspot fires off in the background. No wireless tethering working, plus it breaks my PagePlus programming until I reboot.
I'm wondering if anyone is satisified with USB or Wireless tethering on 621 rooted... ? I'm guessing that THB Hack still works even on 621 and that is the only way?
(consequently, I've been trying to remove "3G Wifi Hotspot" but it seems embedded in Settings.apk.)
Thanks!
Theres no reason the tbh hack shouldnt work. Just do some research and find the appropriate version.
Its been a couple years for me since I installed it but have used it on : d2,d2g,dx,dx2.
IF you are getting the V.zon redirect page its pretty obvious this hack is still the way to go.... why pay for an app from playstore?
If you are running a custom rom PLEASE research these things before you go and install something like this.
this will require bootstrap or cwm to install, or rom manager.

Sorry to bump an old thread. I work for vzw. Just an FYI, if you call asking for us to add it for free, we can't. There's no way to do so. If we add the mhs feature, there's a charge, and no way around.
The thing is, that fine was imposed on Verizon by the FCC for charging certain 4G LTE customers for tethering. They bought a certain frequency spectrum and the FCC added it into the contract that they couldn't charge for certain things like tethering. I believe it's only in a few markets and doesn't have any effect on 3G (like our beloved Droid X)
I looked into the case to see if somehow I could use it against Cricket a few months back, but after reading how the contract was worded, the actual viability of me starting an uprising with Cricket customers became nil. Verizon still has the full right to charge for tethering so long as your phone doesn't run on this frequency spectrum. Sorry guys
Turns out this isn't just asinine, it violates an FCC regulation. You see, Verizon owns a special segment of spectrum at 700 MHz. The purchase came with a rule: Verizon had "to allow customers to freely use the devices and applications of their choosing." But Verizon turned around and broke the rule anyway. To help set things right, Verizon also accepted a $1.25 million fine.

That's the 4G spectrum they bought.
Hey y'all just got my note 3 today and was setting it up to my liking. So I found that on my GS3 when I unlocked the bootloader and went with custom roms, the battery life was never the same again. I know this is weird, hell I used to cook winmo 6 roms and every android I've used has had some kind of custom rom but my GS3 would burn through battery like it was it's job once it was unlocked and running custom rom. The GS3 I had that wasn't unlocked/rooted had a ok battery life and was totally fine. Hence I decided that once I got the Note 3 I wasn't going to be unlocking the bootloader on it, root sure but no custom roms. The only problem that pertained to was foxfi -> it worked without a hiccup on my cfw GS3. I can confirm however I'm using my Note 3 on ATT LTE Stock firmware etc and tethering to my laptop RIGHT NOW using the home button trick from the GS4. When the foxfi app tells you to call 611 to get hotspot, just press home and then open foxfi again, the hotspot will still be active and you can connect and monitor your usage.
I won't speak for anyone but my own experience, but for the past 2 months I haven't had home internet because I've been moving between coasts (I'm a physician for the armed forces) and I've been basically living out of extended stay hotels and my phone has been my only source of internet (I have unlimited) so I personally have been using 100-200 gb a month since my initial moving process and have received no such text or email or phone call from att. I'm currently downloading all my updated patient records (about 4gbs) and speeds are a nice and toasty ~42mbps down.
So yeah, your mileage will vary with ATT of course, but just sharing my own personal experiences.
cheers
Doesn't work for me.
Works for me, so far.

Thanks! Seems to be working for me as well w/ the paid version of Fox-Fi.
So you can use this app without ATT upgrading your plan to a tethering plan? I have the unlimited data plan and last year I used a Rom with tethering and I received noticed from ATT that they were going to change my plan. So I have not tethered since, fearful of loosing my "unlimited data" service. Question is do you all have "unlimited" data plans and using FoxFi without AT&T notifying you?
Thanks.

I've had unlimited data for close to 8 years and I've never paid for tethering
For me and some others in the thread this is working a ok with out tethering plan
just remember, once you activate the wifi and it tells you to call 611 hit the home buttom instead of ok
that'll keep the connection active, hitting ok will kill it.

It didn`t work for me. Just after starting the tethering, a message appears saying "mobile data is not available or invalid SIM". After some research aroud, I decioded to go to root and try removing the Tethering Provision. Downloading Root de La Vega at this moment... I will let you know about my results after that.
Just to clarify: I am not at AT&T. Bought the N900A in the USA but managed to unlock it and now I am using the beast in my local GSM operator in Brazil (Oi).

ahhh that's probably your issue, the tethering provision is assuredly hooked up to the ATT data apn and that'll cause issues when it calls home that specific apn only to find it not available.
yes you're gonna have to root and remove that and then try again, I'd assume if you either removed tethering provisions or edited the file to the proper values you'll have hotspot working soon enough

Try freezing first. That way you don't have to worry about reinstalling it if removing it causes problems.
Just a side note I also use Foxfi add on and run through a proxy just incase. AT&T supposedly sees nothing except that I'm going to a proxy server so I'm told...

Tethering after root!
V DidDy 210, bigmout and all
I have just rooted and everything went pretty well. Piece of cake following the walk-through in the root thread OP.
As I said above, my intention on rooting was to achieve WIFI Tethering, because my N900A is not being used on AT&T. With root, I could freeze the Tethering Provision with TB and now FoxFI was able to do its work. There is a message stating that "Unfortunatelly, setting has stopped", but you can just ignore it because FoxFI remains activated after that.
Cheers and MANY THANKS for this thread and also of couse to DesignGears who developed the root for the N900A.

Confirmed here. Rooted, froze tethering provision and when I kick on my elixer widget, there will be a few seconds where the device freezes, then it will give the "settings has stopped" error and tethering kicks on successfully. A little annoying, but I don't use tethering that often, so I can live with it.
Nice job, man. Thanks for being the guinea pig. I just picked up my Note and hour ago and the first thing I did was root it and get this working. Adblock and tether are two things I simply cannot live without.

I have a Verizon with a grandfathered unlimited data plan. I used to use it a lot with my Samsung Galaxy S3 but a forced update broke this functionality. I would like to upgrade phones and want to know if the Moto X Style/Pure can do subscription-less wireless hotspots? If so, how?
I will venture a guess and say that FoxFi won't work on this. From my small amount of research so far, it sounds like FoxFi doesn't work on Motos. Poeple have also seemed to have bad luck with other app store tethering apps on the Motos. With that said, this being "unlocked," I don't know if the native tethering settings will work.
Either way, I'm assuming if this has an unlocked bootloader and we can root... I'm sure there will be a way around.

Thank you for answering my question. Do you know if it makes a difference if I purchase a Moto X Style vs a Pure?
My assumption is that the Style will be locked by Verizon while the Pure should not be locked? If it is the same thing, I will buy a style since I can get that subsidized with a 2 year plan if this is not the case I will purchase a Pure from a third party.
I have used foxfi in the past with moto phones. I have not needed it since loosing my unlimited data. Those phones were on pre 5.0 android. I have not kept up to see if they have updated it to work on 5.0 and later.

On the droid turbo, nothing worked.
However as long as we get root, which I think will happen. They can modify the apk not to check for hotspot provisions.

Since this is an unlocked phone, wouldn't it work just like how Nexus devices work? I assumed that since you wouldn't have any of Verizon's software it wouldn't do the tethering check.

My next phone.
Heck, I don't even need to root if that's the case.
Me too! If I can tether out of the box, I won't need to root either, though I'll probably unlock the bootloader on day 1, since that wipes the device.
I read elsewhere that it is advisable to do the initial setup over wifi, with no sim, to prevent the device from downloading and VZW software that may prompt the device to check for subscription before starting hotspot.
I know it isn't that hard to watch a tutorial and root, but with OTA's popping up, it would be nice if I didn't need to root.
According to @spotmark in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/mot...o-x-2015-pure-edition-waiting-t3192510/page51 it's confirmed working on Verizon with Unlimited Data, no tethering subscription!!
If you're unlocked and rooted, you don't need Foxfi or any other third party app. Native Hotspot works fine

Not true. I'm with Straight Talk (AT&T) and it wouldn't let me tether. There is a provisioning check. I had to root to get tethering.
Straight Talk is not ATT. It uses other carriers networks to provide service. That's not the same as having serivce directly from ATT. I have Verizon and ATT, tethering worked on both without root.
I'm on Sprint 10+ years and I root and enable native tethering on all of my phones since the Evo.Sprint has never said a word.I average 20-30 GB of data a month .
sprint limits hotspot data
Hi, have a quick question. I am on a simply everything plan at sprint for 70 bucks a month. But they check if I use the unlimited data with my hotspot. If I tether they limit the data to 3 GB a month and charge if I get over that. Is there a way to get around that?
