Hi everyone.
Are you people able to run the "Wireless Tether for Root Users" on your htc desire successfully?
Earlier i read the forums they were saying it isn't. I did google that forum but failed to find it.
So, did anyone find luck using this app. This is actually the most important reason I am buying my Desire. please help on this.

I buy the Ego 4g and a friend root my phone and put these app WiFi tethering. The last Tuesday my phone download a update and my radio change. With this update the WiFi tethering stop and I dont use more. Someone know how root again the phone with this new update and use the WiFi?
Lol, wow this topic keeps coming up. You cant root now if you have the latest update. you will have to wait until someone figures out a way to do it
Thanks I will waiting.
lol, lucky you that someone just figured out how to root. Check out the dev forum
there are instructions in the dev forum, as elegantai mentioned.
for future reference, SEARCH before posting, and don't make your thread titles so obtuse. state your issues clearly so people know what your problem is
OK,
I'm a complete newb and leaving the iphone behind after having to update one to many times and waiting for a new jailbeak.
What I want to do is root the slide and set it up fo tethering, so far it does everything else that I want.
I've read the two forums posts on rooting and tethering, but how do I know what OTA version I have and what do I check to see if the process will work?
Thanks

chances are you have to use the latest root version. to verify, go to setting and 'about phone' all the way at the bottom. your version is under 'baseband version'
not many roms have working wifi tether so you'll have to use the barnacle app and check the wpa supplicant box in the settings of that app
Thanks for the reply.
My baseband is 47.41.35.10u_7.09.35.10
Looks like I'll have a busy weekend of reading and tinkering.
I am really liking the new phone and can't wait to see what all it will do.
Thanks again
Did you find a solution?
Nothing here. Have tried various apps. barnacle loads 20% of the time, but my Ipad still won't connect. help....
Im running CR OTA rom, keeps stock look, and the tether app that came with the rom works fine for me. I was never to fond of the barnicle wifi tether.
get easytether. done
Does anyone know if there's a way to use Easy Tether with an Android phone and the Elocity A7?
I know the file that needs installing on the input device is for Windows, not Android.
I'd love to use the A7 in place of my laptop on trips where there's no wifi available.
I'm not interested in rooting my phone etc., that's all way over my non-techie head and I'd no doubt ruin my phone.
Thanks for any help.
electric_alice,
The only way I know of tethering is by rooting your phone. Google z4root by RyanZa and find the apk. It seems to be gone from the Market. It's literally 1-click and that's it. I rooted my Droid X with this a while back and can now tether my laptop and the A7 without any problems. Once you have it rooted, grab Wireless Tether from the market and you should be all set.
Thanks for the information. I still don't want to root the phone.
I did email the developer of Easytether, as they have added support for other things, and am hoping they'll update it for android-android as well.
I haven't heard back but if I get a reply I'll share it. I'm thinking it might not work with the A7 anyway?
I just read in another thread, that the USB port can't be used for sharing files.
BTW, what phone do u have?
I just got the new LG Optimus V from VM and no rooting necessary. WIFI hotspot can be enabled with Quick Setting.
And it's real easy to connect as it's a AP. And VM gives unlimited Internet on their BEYOND TALK Plan. This is the best way to connect via WIFI hotspot for your A7.
Hi rogconnect,
I have an HTC incredible. I do have a setting to turn on a wifi hotspot but I'm afraid to change a setting and get a bigger bill from Verizon. I don't know all the ins and outs of how it works or what they know.
I've been using EasyTether away from home without problems. I have the paid version so I can pay bills etc.
Anyone know a solution for Blackberry?
Just an update, I heard back from EasyTether, in case anyone else is interested in same.

Hi, just got an Elocity A7 android tablet with USB port and want to tether my HTC incredible. Is this possible or if not, will it be in the future?

Too bad, loved that idea!
Sorry but I haven't seen this question asked anywhere else. Is it possible to simply root the phone and use all of the wonders of root access (ie free tether and the removal of bloat ware) without having to flash a custom rom that may or may not allow my 4g, wifi, and gps to work.
um last i knew u could just root it and use free tether. like opengarden or sumthing from the market. as far a bloatware idk maybe search around the forums for sumthing to flash to it. these guys prolly have sumthing lol
You could root the phone and install a wireless tether app and then use titanium backup pro to freeze bloatware

That is what I originally did. After a few months though I did install a new ROM.

Ok I rooted my phone using unrevoked3 with no problems. I was and am able to use the WiFi hotspot for share my internet with other devices over WiFi (no wires) . Now my cousin just got the evo and want to have free WiFi like me and not have to pay Sprint 30 bucks a month for it. His phone is 2.3.3 so unrevoked3 won't work so I tried for the first time revolutionary. I have the Superuser and it is in s-off,,, but when i go to try the sprint WiFi hotspot I get the message that I don't have that on my plan so it doesn't work. It seem to me that it is rooted, so why doesn't this work like it does for me? Do I need to flash a ROM to get it to work or did I goof something up? Please help me out, I spent four hours playing around with this today and reading different threads on rooting the new way,, all for family but feel like I let my cousin down by not getting him what I said I was able to do. So i need to help of some of the brightest techies on the best forum ever!

The reason it doesn't work is your trying to use the sprint hotspot you HAVE to flash a Rom to.get the hacked sprint hotspot or you can use a wireless tether app

yes you have to download a rom that has it integrated or find a wireless tethering app to download.

I answered your question already

Think you've been reading the wrong stuff. It sounds like you haven't fully rooted your phone or rooted it with one of the latest ROMs. I know some ROMs don't include wifi sharing - also known as tethering.

You need a hacked hotspot or simply get wifi tether from the market. Iirc, using unrevoked comes with a rooted stock rom with hotspot being an included app. But I'm not sure since I used unrevoked only once a long time ago. Using revolutionary doesn't flash a rom. So everything about the rom is stock...but you have an unlocked boot loader. Flash a rom with unlocked hotspot, most of them have it

You can also use Caulkins mod to unlock the hotspot/usb tethering
Check this link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=785271&highlight=caulkins+wireless+tether
Download and flash using the recovery of your choice. Note this will only work over 3g. If you want to tether 4g you will need an app like wifi tether.
