[Q] G2 Stock Kernel - G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey everyone,
Does anyone know where I can find a working link to the stock, post-OTA kernel for T-Mobile US G2's? The link here (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=836042) no longer works.
I'm running the stock rom with root, s-off, pershoot's kernel,but pershoot's kernel no longer supports froyo - and his past froyo kernels break my wifi tethering and sometimes my wifi altogether. Sad, but essentially my rooting process seems to have been in vain - I'm not really happy with any of the developed roms, because none of them seem to ever be working perfectly (gps not working, wifi broken, gapps impossible to install, netflix works - sometimes!, etc.)
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Link works fine for me on phone and computer...
Try the untouched gingerbread releases..

Link for the kernel or the link to the thread?
UPDATE:
Turns out Firefox was being weird and not displaying the page properly. I got it now, and I am running the stock kernel. It sucks that developers are only developing kernels for undeveloped platforms! Beauty and curse of this awesome site, I suppose. Thanks for your quick response.

[Q] Native Tethering for Rooted Users

Forgive me if there is already an answer to this on the forum. I did some searching and didn't see one. Basically, I am wondering if any of the custom ROMS available for the EVO unlock the native wifi tethering that is part of froyo. I am running the rooted version of the 2.2 update, but the feature is hidden. It seems like if it is part of the OS, it should be able to be unlocked and included in the custom ROMS. Would be greatfull for anyone who can point me in the right direction on this as I don't want to have to use the wifi tether app if I don't have too.
Thanks,
Justin
CM6 does that. You will lose Sense though.
I was looking into that one. I am ok with looking sense, but I don't want to loose 4g. Does C6 have working 4g yet?

Tethering is working on the latest rom from Fresh if you run Netarchy's kernel.
am i missing something or why not just use wifi tether?
does that not hit 4g? if it does, why not just use that and keep sense? (not that sense is all that wonderful)
At the time of this post, WiFi tether app was not working with froyo. It is now, but its performance isn't that great.

CyanogenMod 7.1 messaging problem

I am running the stable version of cyanogenmod 7.1 and I've flashed earlier versions before, but for some reason none of them have ever allowed me to continue using my picture messaging. Another bit of info, I have the HTC inspire 4G and all other roms for the desire HD run fine when I flashed them.
Is this a problem with the rom or could it be because of the differences in phones?

doubt it has anything to do with the phone try with another cm7 rom
OK, found out that with my mobile data disabled it won't work. Now that I know of a way to make it work, I have another question. Other roms allowed me to disable mobile data and it would just use it automatically when I sent pictures, any clues as to why cm7 won't work the same way?

Its the way cm shuts the data off. Most sense bases roms are set to only **** off the internet part of the apn while cm based roms diablebit all together. I mentioned it and it was stated that it was supposed to work like this.
OK, gotcha. I appreciate the info.

Wifi tether app on aosp?

Has anyone been able to get the wireless tether for root users app to work with aosp? The stock tethering *works,* but has very limited functionality. I emailed the dev and he told me to try the latest version, available here. http://tinyurl.com/bj9lyv
This has a lot of new features including a profile for our device, but it still doesn't work for me.
Has anyone had any luck with this?

Ah sweet I'll try that out, is supersonic nightly a sense rom? Or was he just sharing which aosp flavor he uses?

what aosp are u using, i have all of them in the link in my sig and all the kernels. if you dl a wireless tether app on an aosp with built in free wifi tether then you will mess up the built in wifi tether and the app will not work or the built in will slow down. you would have to wipe everything and reflash it again. then try the built in wifi tether and it should work perfect. if you have any questions feel free to ask them in the link in my sig
The built in works, it just doesn't have the functionality of the wireless tether app. I really would like to have it working .. I haven't tried the above method actually, sorry haven't had time

[Q] Tethering and Hotspot

hi i have a problem with the hotspot and tether apps , first time a had that problem with XxXPachaXxX NERO 2.2 rom then installed this rom ViperDHD v1.2.1 wich is a very good rom !! i thought it was a rom problem and it was mentioned that the hotspot works fine in this rom but i still have the same problem if i use the hotspot app i get connexion but no internet and after deactivating the app mi WIFI doesn't wok i have to restart my phone to get the wifi again; if i use another app like wifi tether i get an error msg ( the tetherting started with errors tetherting failed ) now i switched back to CM7 and still nothing.
PLZ help guys ? thanks all
Hi darko1x, have you tried PDAnet? It's a tethering app I've used it with GB,ICS and JB roms currently on Codefire X's SR5. Its always done the job for me and even has an option to disguise your tethering, as some phone carriers will block your internet use if you're not paying for an extra tethering package.
Hi and thnx for the reply, so i tried the app you suggested and it gets to nothing.
I made some screenshots for 3 differnt apps, take a look please

With JellyTime I can't use tethering too, I've opened a bug report but in R29 wasn't fixed yet.
I tried 3 different mods and no solution
Ps: it was working good first time i used CM7

Probably due wifi drivers, because CM7 uses kernel 2.6.x and CM10 3.x kernels.
can you please explain ? do you have anny idea how to fix it ?

Tethering

Ok first off I've researched and studied this to hell and posting is my last resort. I'm rooted, use vpn shields, have tried several top rated tethering apps from the play store and a proxy. None work, once I try to load a website on my PC the t mobile web page pops up about tethering and such, I am unable to tether. Anyone with suggestions?

That didn't work. As in the app errors out so I didn't get a chance to test it and it's no longer in the play store.

in order to have Tethering work, you MUST Flash the Kernel with a "Tweaked" version that allows Wifi Tether.
the file I got downloaded, I forgot where from is named, SetUIDRestrictRemovedKernel.zip
If you do a google search using the filename I provided above, It should be the second choice. ( I just did the search)
it'll download when you select to....

Aloha and good luck!

if you're using the included Tethering app it works right out of the box! It's the "Trev_E_Mod" tethering and others that are not possible to enable without the Kernel patch......
Ya it seems all the custom roms I tried I could not for the life of me get wifi tethering to work. I had to go back to stock TW for M919 and now it works perfectly. I wish I heard about the tweaked kernel before. Will try the tweaked kernel when I get an itch to flash something new hopefully 4.4 real soon!
