is there anyone having the same problem? I did the OTA update earlier and my WIFI Tether is not responding giving me a message saying to try again. Are there any fix to this? thanks in advance!
the OTA breaks root, which is required for wifi tether. i previously used unrevoked just for wifi tether, but as far as i know they're not yet updated for the new OTA.

Does the Stock OTA Froyo allow you native wireless tether for free?
No it does not. I can't even get android tether to work.

You must be rooted to use Android Tether. Sorry, bro; you're going to have to wait for someone to reroot 2.2.
This is why you should NEVER, EVER accept OTA updates if you want to keep root access.
Agreed you should not do this OTA update, but hopefully someone will fix this and you should be fine. The stock 2.2 will not offer this for free, it's greyed out by default...

No soup for you!
No.
See this thread for details.
one more time... Just to be perfectly clear...
HELL NO!
So I have installed the Stock OTA 2.2.. that has root access. I have wireless tether for root users 2.0.5 pre 6 it starts up fine however no devices can see it. I was wondering if anyone has gotten this to work on 2.2 with the stock Rom.

i'm not positive, but i have heard both yes and no, and i'm not sure what the difference in setups is between those that have good luck and bad.
i know that cm6 can enable hotspot access (3G) with no problems. perhaps the devs putting out the sense 2.2 can manage to port it over to sense.
I know is a redundant question but I updated the ota and can't root is any way I can therther without needing the root phone and sprint hotspot service?
currently there is not a way to wirelessly tether with out sprint hotspot un rooted. I believe someone said pdanet still works to usb tether 3g but i have not tried it myself.
I have a SGHI-I747 4.3 I am wondering if I am able to root it with the instructions from http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...3790&nocache=1 I do not see my phone listed.
I would like to disable knox also and enable wifi tether.
Any help would be much appreciated thanks.
SuperSU wont work
I just rooted my Samsung sgh i747 and SuperUS keeps crashing with the following error message: Unfortunately, SuperSU has stopped.
Try Towelroot.
Wifi tether
I now have my phone rooted and supersu is properly working what is the best way to enable wifi tether? I have unlimited data with at&t and am going on vacation so I would really like to have it enabled. I previously used trev mod to enable wifi but it doesn't work with the 4.3 update.
As the title says, phone is not rooted yet. I'm on cricket running stock 8.0 trying to tether and hot spot but tells me i'm not setup for it and to contact the carrier. I was wondering how I can get around this?? If I root using Magisk would I then be able to tether??
Possibly,
If you are running the stock rom then the baked in tethering option will not likely work even with root access. If you root your phone however there are multiple tethering apps that you can get from the play store that will allow you to tether such as wifi tether router.
