Glad that it was able to help man.
I have a different problem now, I can tether but the hot spot does not show up. I tried to doing it over and over, didn't work. I'm not sure if it's the version of the wireless tether or the files that I put into it android.tether
Anyone have a solution?

Hi I was just wondering what the best settings were for the WiFi tether app in my evo.
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
Have you actually gotten this to work? Are you using the one with the green wifi looking icon? I have gotten my laptop to connect, but not actually share the internet.
Ya i can connect but the internet is not working that's my problem also.

I read something, somewhere, that we may need to update or add a kernel. I'm not sure though.
I have had the same problem,all I done was download a different version of wifi tether,been working great

Thank you...not to be a pain, but once I download it to my computer, what do I do? I think it has something to do with pushing...but I am awful with loading things onto my phone.
If you Google wireless tether for Android from your phones browser,then click the downloads link for the project hosting on Google code,you can download straight to your phone.There are a bunch of different versions and not all will work with all kernels.After downloading,your phone will ask if you want to install.I'm using the pre8 version with netarchy's 4.1.8 kernel on fresh 3.1.0.1 and it works fine.

You sure its not working?? Its a adhoc connection and most tablets wont pick that up. My desktop sometimes wont either but to fix that i have to switch my wifi on the desktop off and on then it sees the connection

which rom are you using? i had that problem before when i was trying wifi tether hack apps but i download a rom that actually had the hotspot hack which allow to use the sprint hotspot and that worked like a charm.
i also suggest you to try using ( Hotspot hack ) posting on the development section.
i hope that helped
Thanks guys. I'm using stock rom. When I had my evo, it worked like a charm.

I am having the same kind of problem; wifi tether does not work. I was on rooted stock rom, then Calkulin 1.5a. On the client side, I tried Ubuntu 11.10, Window XP, both detected the ad-hoc device, but just could not establish connection. I am using the hotspot hack, which work without issue.
I'm on add ROM with sprint hot spot and it works perfectly.

Exact same problem for me to. It work on my EVO and now I have a ET4G rooted. The wifi tether stable and beta do not work.
Any ideas?
Thre developer is aware and hopefully going to fix this for our phone.

" Infrastructure mode, unlike ad-hoc mode, allows multiple devices and devices that don't support ad-hoc mode to connect to the Wi-Fi access point spawned by the app, so it's definitely something we want. I've also asked about getting infrastructure mode on the*Epic Touch 4G, which uses a newer Broadcom chipset, to which Harald replied "we will see." Fingers crossed here."

I use wireless tether from the market and works great. I know on a past phone I had to create a folder on my SD card called android.tether with a bin file in it. I don't know if that is why mine works or not.

Is there actually a Wi-Fi tether app that works for our phone? I've tried Wi-Fi tether from the market, and other devices will connect to my SSID and "tether", but it will basically be a worthless connection because I won't be able to surf at all from the tethered connection.
I'm trying to connect my Nexus 10 tablet since I get great LTE signal here in Dallas where I live, but I can't make full use of it since no tether app works properly with our phone...any help is appreciated!!

Lol, dude...I have been on XDA for more than ten seconds. I know how to search. I've found and already looked through that thread. There is no real answer there other than what I already mentioned about changing a lot of settings for a possible solution...which still didn't work when I tried.
I'm not looking for some smart assed answer about searching because I already have...extensively. I'm looking for someone who might have found an app which actually WORKS.

WiFi tether actually works. But it kills wifi. Use one or the other per reboot. Just like the link says. Generic ICS/Jb wlan 0

I've tried that...read my original post. That app will "tether" but the device that connects won't download anything. Basically making it worthless.

Settle down tiger. Try a reboot. See if it works. Its been working for a few of us since zvb dropped. You might have to use Trevor's WiFi tether. And i did read your post. That's why I'm answering.

Here's the settings I used to make Wifi tether from the Playstore to work. Remeber either WIFI or the Wifi tether per reboot.
1.Change device profile to - Generic ICS/JB (wlan0)
2.Setup method - Auto
3.Enable wifi-encryption
4. I changed SSID and my Passphrase
That's it. It's worked for stock JB and Imperium. Haven't tried it on Lifeless yet.
mine is on the Generic ICS/JB on wifi tether my SSID will show up but wont connect at all.

Is whatever you're trying to tether set to auto? Also, Wi-Fi cannot turn on at all after a reboot if you're on zvb. Try it on other things also to see if its the app, or whatever you're trying to tether.
Edit. Try going to settings, enable access control.

When I had this problem (at&t model but probably the same issue), I had to select a different lan in the wifi tether settings. Either the arp cache on the tethered device still had old entries (since the default network is the same as my wireless network that my device had just been connected to), or it's just that wifi tether applies the wrong netmask. Right now I'm using the setting "10.10.3.0/24" which works, but in reality it's assigning a 255.0.0.0 (/8) netmask to the interface!
Hey folks,
I'm having some problems with my note 2 GT N7100, I can't connect to the internet, my mobile data is active though it's not working, it works only with whatsapp, then my wifi won't connect, it keeps saying "Obtaining IP adress" and nothing happens after, and yes I am rooted and I guess my problem is because of a root app.
More infos on the attachements, it would be great if someone could help me solve this problem.
Thanks guys.
Can you go to the internet using your mobile data? And did you put in your WiFi password correctly?

Well I made a hard reset and installed a new firmware, now it's working fine, it's just that Google Play stopped working.. I'm getting the 500 error while trying to download any app. I guess my phone is not feeling good these days.
Custom firmware? Maybe try reinstalling gapps again. It seems to solve most of my Google play issues.

No, the official Samsung's 4.1.2 firmware, well I have solved the problem, it has nothing to do with deleting Google Play's cache or deleting Dalvik cache or whatever, since I am rooted and I have Xposed installer, I used to use Hack connectivity module and it seems that it was blocking my wifi access so just by deleting it everything went good. Lucky me. Thanks bro for your help.
Has anyone had any issues with wifi tether after the 4.3 ota.
I am having one hell of a time getting it to work.
I tried everything i can think of and it refuses to work.
Get errors about not finding the binaries, gets phone in unknown state ( the only app that does it )... yes i am rooted and confirmed that i can mod system files.

What exactly is happening when you start tethering ?
Are you getting "error" or you can start tethering but no data is transfered from your device ?
My post solves the "error" problem as described here
https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=62516
Other posts here indicate that in some cases tethering won't work if you don't have a plan for it.
Anyhow there is a fix for this issue too. search the forum.

Depending on what I try I either get a screen that is forever asking me to "Please wait while starting..." or I get the error like wpsantennas where it tells me "Couldn't install file-data/data/com.googlecode.android.wifi.tether/bin/tether!"
It will tell me my phone is in an "unknown state" if I try to stop and restart the tethering process.

Same problem here. Tethering worked fine before update, after updating to 4.3 experiencing same problems listed above.
From what I've read, a few of the custom roms, including some sense roms, seem to have the stock mobile hotspot working. Anyone know what was changed in those to get it working?

100% stock rooted, debloated.
Im trying to get the native tether with security check bypassed.. i found the code but of course when i debloated i dont have the files, so i got to wait 3 hours to dl the rom with the file ..ugh useing th previous rom files i can get it to launch and run, and show up but going into settings crashes settings
I'm stock rooted except running ObOne kernel. Didn't think the kernel was the problem but didn't run tether on 4.3 before flashing the new kernel. When I ran into the tether problems I wasn't debloated but since then I've dumped some stuff.
Based on the error messages it seems as if the app can't write to the directory but have no clue why. Tried OpenGarden and it had the same errors.

I decided to check out the sprint forums for the one, and the exact same thing happened to them when they got 4.3 . It seems it was hit or miss with the tether apps. and it seemed that a reasonable fix was to use native tether with security bypassed. The person who modded the one tether app that we are having problems with seems to be MIA
Workaround
All,
I believe i found a viable workaround
