Are there any sense roms with the built-in hotspots feature working? I like cm 6 because of the hotspots but I miss sense.
Pretty sure that most ROMs come with wireless tether. If you flash one that doesn't, then just install it yourself.

I've tried it many times. That app disconnects after a few minutes of use.

You might want to try a different version of wireless tether. I'm using pre8 and am having no issues.

Fresh uses the app, not the native tethering.

I have recently installed SkyRaider 3.0 Vanilla on my phone, and I had read somewhere that the Wireless Tether application will still work, even though the stock 3G Hotspot does not.
I can start it up, and turn the tethering on, but I can't connect to it to anything..

Thank you for the quick reply. I thought I was the only one. I love skyraider
It's working great for me on uncommon sense. You'll probably get a better answer if you post in the skyraider thread.

What problem is there with the 3G Wireless Hotspot?
Og, I'm not using the same rom a you but I use hydrakernel v0.5.
This may help? Do a nandroid...
If your rom is based on cm6, then don't use my kernel, per the warning on hydrakernel.net
Try using the latest version from the developer's code site instead of the one from the marketplace.

are you running a custom rom? if so most of them have the sprint hotspot unlocked and that works fine too...Also with wireless tether try going to settings and change the LAN-Network and see if any of those settings help.
I'm running custom Fresh Rom, and i just tried to run Sprint Hotspot and it works! Thank you so much!

Did you enable wifi encryption? While in the app, click on the MENU KEY>SETTINGS>and select ENABLE WIFI ENCRYPTION...by default, the key is "abcdefghijklm" but you can set it to any 13 character string...I'd recommend just using the default 1st

I'm running it right now from my iPad. It's v3 beta 6. Running on stock rom with stock eg30plus kernel. Pm me if you want to try this one. No configuration needed just make sure you are rooted and it works fine on 3G and 4g

Did you try enabling wifi encryption? I use it at work everyday when I set up the VPN client on users laptops. You can't hit the VPN gateway from w/in the network, so I use the wifi tether app to login from outside the firewall and it works great!
The wifi hack is nice since it is the stock wifi tether app being used.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1286236
I like it that way better so I can use my control widget to turn it on and off from my home screen.
try and see if a different wifi device sees it, id bet its a laptop wifi issue and not your phone..just check with anything wifi

I thought I fixed the issue but it's back to being really slow on 4g and 3g. Tried factory reset and that didn't help. If anyone has an idea or suggestion I'd appreciate it. I'm running stock rooted kernel.

Do we know if the Sprint Hotspot hack tethers 4G?
That's it? Just so you dont have to use a usb? When you use a app instead of the option in settings does that use our unlmited data or will it be capped?

It does not because the person(Necrosan) that is being given credit for the 3g hack states in his thread since he does not have 4g in his area to do testing. You can go on his thread and see if you can be a tester so that we may be able to get the hack going. But for now you would need a third party app to use 4g tethering unfortunately
4G wireless tethering? If so what configuration are you running? Rom? Kernel? I use my tethering often, and not being able to tether 4g has been disappointing.

It only works in adhoc mode.
Download and ODIN this file
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1282415
Then download and ODIN this kernel

And finally use CWM to flash this file and then wipe your Dalvik cache in the advanced menu of CWM

Worked like a charm for me and is many more times reliable than Wireless Tether.

try it without encryption just use access control you have to authorize each device from the phone once but it at least keeps people from using your bandwidth.
it is adhoc only though so some devices can't connect (mainly other phones tablets ect computers and the like are ok)
im currently on starburst 1.95 with the included kernel but i've yet to find a rom it didnt work on for me anyway
that sprint hack would be awesome if it had 4g enabled also
Thanks guys. I didn't know Adhoc wouldn't show up on my android and blackberry, the two devices I was testing to see if it would catch my SSID. Fired up my laptop and there it was. Sucks there's no infrastructure mode at the moment and hope they can fix that soon.
install the sprint hack from the dev section for those times you need infrastructure mode.
its only 3g but better than nothing.
Not sure what is the problem, im on stock rooted with LosKernel, and im able to ot use the latest Wireless Teather, with 4G on.. I connected my ipodtouch3G to check if it works, and it does
what are this ad-hoc and infrastructure stuff?

But does 4G stay on? Every kind of tethering I've tried, wireless, hotspot, wired, 4G acts like it is authenticating, then disconnects. So you are really tetherd on 3G.

You can use 4G with the app, but you can't use it with Sprint Hot Spot (3G ) only

do you have another tethering app installed? it can stop the native stuff from working
I've looked into this quite a bit... yes you have to install other tether apps -- also jamcar, make sure wifi is off before turning on tether, and it has to be open encryption, at this time, encryption is bugged. I'm still trying to find out what I can about how android-wifi-tether works to see where it's looking for files to get access contro/encryption, i'm waiting on a reply from the dev... good luck

I recommend using native tether. Others have had problems getting tethering to work with third-party apps. Even having a tethering app installed without using it can break tethering.
ok but the native tether doesnt work, like i can connect to it but i cant use the internet
Not sure. I used it with my TF300, and it worked fine. Do you have a firewall app installed or something similar? I could imagine something like Droidwall or Lookout or something blocking the connection.

Wait a few minutes. Sometimes it takes a minute for everything to settle. If its actually connecting fine the internet should follow
i am still having trouble with my native wi-fi tether on the cm10 8-1 rom as well...the icon pops up in the notification bar but the limited connection icon is always on the pc...ive uninstalled the aftermarket tether app and lookout as well...any suggestions???
