I just got the Verizon refurb... I let it do all the updating and then I rooted. I wasn't looking for custom Rom's... just the ability to tether it to my droid 3.
Verizon had some weak bluetooth support in the begining and I think I read that Sprint did too. I think most of the rom upgrades fix it, but I know the OTA Verizon one did.
I think what you want to research is HID bluetooth. I'm not sure it was available in 2.2. It is in 2.3.5

Sprint Custom Rom
not much out there in the Rom market for CDMA Sprint, most of the custom Roms are for GSM

Do you have the link you used to root 2.3.5 I am fine stock with a root.

Here are the directions I used to root my Galaxy Tab:

I got the update requests from 2.2 pretty immediately and went ahead with the update to 2.3.
As others have mentioned, there's isn't much selection regarding custom ROMs for the CDMA Galaxy Tab. But I'm fine with it rooted--it's not running Sense-level bloat so it's still fast.
Pay attention to my notations at the end of the first page in the above thread--good bits to note when rooting your 2.3 CDMA Tab.

Tethering/Wifi Hotspot for the Nexus 7 3G ISSUE

Hi to all
I have a N7 32G 3G 4.2.1 rooted , unlocked bootloader, rom, kernel and launcher STOCK
i wanted the option to create hotspot wifi
As you know this opttion is not naptive
And so i installaed this [MOD][4.2.1/4.2][JOP40D/JOP40C] Tethering/Wifi Hotspot for the Nexus 7 3G that can be downloaded here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1995737
After the installation i am able to create hotspot wifi, set its password, connect to N7's hotspot wifi several other devices (phone, smartphone, PC, etcetera) but ... i cannot surf internet with they :crying:
It is not a matter of kind of profile of my SIM provider (Telecom Italia Mobile = TIM) because i tried to perform the same thing using as hotspot producer an Ipad and ... NO PROBLEM : the same devices connected to IPAD's hotspost wifi can surf internet !!
Have you any idea in order to fix my issue ??
Many thanks
Paolo

SPECIAL NOTE for all my Italian fellows!
After you unlock/root/custom recovery your nexus 7 and then flash the tethering .zip as suggested by other users in this thread, you would recover your tethering functionality. IF it happens to you to subscribe a Internet 3G carrier like "TIM" (Telecon Italia Mobile), it would also happens that all the devices that you try to connect via wifi tethering to your nexus 7 would do that BUT you without the possibility to navigate properly.
Apparently the problem is specific to the nexus 7 (no problem with apple devices for example) and consist in the "blocked" APN provided by TIM. This app seems to resolve the problem (surely worked for me and other users around italy).

[Q] Enable bluetooth tethering?

Hey guys,
Just got my phone rooted on 4.4.2 NB1 using SafeStrap and muniz' stock rooted NB1 rom (Thanks so much again if yours seeing this!)
One major reason why I wanted a rooted phone was for tethering privileges; while i have been able to circumvent at&t's wifi hotspot software, I do not have an option for bluetooth tethering. Is it even possible on our phones, and is there way to enable it?
Thanks in advance,
Constantine

[Q] wifi hotspot on galaxy s4 gt-i9500

hi guys
I have an s4 i9500 and would like to know (sorry the ignorance) if on this set i can have hotspot for regular wifi connection and not only with network connection.
When i try to create a tether setting the phone automatically shuts the existing wifi connection.
Is there a driver that will allow to create an option for hotspot on wifi. I saw a video that creates something similar on a 9505 odexed. my issue is is there such a file for the 9500, also i believe i saw a file but for a very old rom version. Currently i am running i9500xxufna6 on android 4.4.2
the file i saw was for an older android version and i am not sure it would work on 4.4.2
Can anyone point me in the right direction, i need to tether my tablet to the phone but i want to use my home router rather than my phone company.
Any help will be greatly apprecited
thanks
