I am running ec05 urban regeneration 1.2 and running wifi tether version 3.0-pre3 and it has been the most stable, but things like, if it is plugged into the charger and I unplug it the phone reboots, stopping the wireless tether causes the phone to reboot, and my phone hitting 100% on the battery causes the phone to reboot. It is Kind of a pain in the ass lol. I have seen some people swear by version 3 pre14 but when I start tether with that I can connect with my ps3 or laptop, but there is no data connection.
SO.... anyone having fully reliable wifi tether? on what rom? and what version of the wireless tether?
Try pre-13/14

You should check out the Hotspot hack. I don't think you will use WifiTether or Wired tether again but Ghostrid3r is right 3 pre 14 worked well for me as did 3.1 beta 2

WIFI tether always worked, but I always had an issue with the unit getting hot when tethering and charging and with after 40/60 minutes the phone resetting.
I have been running the HotSpot hack now under EG22, and it works very well, I haven't had the reason to run it for more than 30 minutes so far, but it has been stable.
wifi tether 3.1 beta 2 works great for me on bonsai 4.1.3

I am looking for a way to disable authentication? This is easily done on an Evo... See this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=838644
Calkulin has a hack for the Evo to disable it, anyone port this to the Epic?
Also maybe if someone could port the disable usb debugging icon even when enabled too?
If you are rooted and install one of the latest froyo roms like quantum 1.3 or 1.4
its built in and working.

OR you can cancel your sprint wifi hotpot ($30/month savings) and just use wireless tether, which is free. Just sayin...
Is there any app that lets you tether to your ps3? Non ad hoc

This is why I want the Sprint one and just disable the authntication as they have already done with the evo, downside is they have not got 4g to wifi working as 4g uses mac adress for authentication possibly.
I already have WiFi tether app that works with 3g and 4g but the mode is ad-hoc and certain things like xbox, ps3, psp need infrastructure mode. I would be happy if we could get as far as Evo and get and have working infrastructure 3g without authentication restriction.

do you pay for it? can you confirm it was sprint hotspot and not wifi tether
yeah i've been on quantum since 1.0, on 2.7 now and i dont think it works. it activates, lets you connect and "looks" like you have internet but activating the hotspot deactivates 3g for some reason. gives you the registration error.
that being said, i downloaded caulkins mod and will look into seeing if i can replicate it on the epic. i'm guessing i'll hit a roadblock as i'm sure people have tried this already, but we'll see!
looks like Caulkin is who made that MOD for the evo, i asked him on here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=10382458#post10382458 if he could provide a how to as the same hack might work for us.
right now i'm just comparing a stock framework.jar with his mod. first delta i found is classes.dex/android/content/pm/registeredservicescache.smali but i dont know if that means anything yet, we'll see.

Agreed, the newest wifi tether actually launches sprint AP with authentication disabled. I've read that its a little buggy, but I used it yesterday for about 10 min browsing the web with no issue.
Using the newest tether (v3) has actually reset my phone, IE erased the data/factory reset. Kinda annoying.
How? No one ever gives instructions.
Is there a way to get a free hotspot or wifi tether on an UNROOTED Epic?
Thanks,
Sam

For free? The short answer is no. You can download the ap apps like wireless tether from the market, but without root permissions, the apps will not work. Some reason your hesitant to root your phone?
Requires a rooted phone.
Backup your phone with CWM3 as this app is still experimental and can cause issues.
Download pre10 or pre12 version 3.
Correctly install with ADB or a file/app manager.
Shutoff 4g and open app.
Select your device profile as Epic 4G
Start app and verify it successfully started (no errors, binaries installed etc.)
Don't worry when you see Sprint Hotspot activated message as this app uses something from the Sprint app
Start 4G
Supports infrastructure mode
Can I uninstall wifi tether 3.0pre-11 from acs syndicaterom 1.1.1? Or will it cause issues?
It seems to run in the background and also I am concerned cause it starts sprint hotspot so I don't know if I'm being charged for that feature...

You can uninstall with no problem. Also, it is supposed to activate the Hotspot icon. It passes through Hotspot to work but you will not get charged. Don't worry about that.

I can't get wireless tether to work... it shows up on the computer as connected with full bars but I can't go on any websites. Any idea on how to fix this? Running 1.2 with genocide 2.0.

Go on this site and download the Wifi Tether 3.1 beta 2. I have had excellent results with it. I also have done really well with version 3 pre 14. Change device type to Epic and the connection to Softap. If you are on 4G with version 3 pre 14 or older, you need to turn off 4G, activate the WifiTether then turn back on 4G. Version 3.1 beta 2 eliminates that...http://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether/downloads/list
Oh..if you go to version 3 pre 14, you can update the old one. If you try 3.1 beta 2, you must delete the old one. It will leave you with two apps and won't work properly.

Hello.
First off thank you for reading.
Title pretty much asks the question... "Are there any settings I can tweak to make my 3DS work with this version? or any version? or maybe another Wifi tethering program I can download?"
I can get into specifics. I'm running ACS Frozen v1.2, with Genocide v2.0 Kernel, and I'm running the Wifi Tether program v2.0.7 (I'm not a fan of the packaged version, always seems to mess with my phone, giving me tons of force closes on the core system and swype, v2.0.7 gives me the connection I need to do what I need to do on my netbook, so why upgrade, unless necessary for my 3DS)
Thank you in advance!
I think the 3ds does infrastructure ony and most tether apps only do ad-hoc. Try using open garden tether from the new epic 4g apps section or google epic wifi tether infrastructure

Use WEP (64) security option. This worked with my ds lite
maybe 3ds supports more but the one above is the only tethering that could connect to my DS lite.
LOVE IT!!!!!
WiFi Hotspot works with my 3DS
I downloaded the Wifi Hotspot Trial from the Market today, and it seems to work fine with my 3DS connected to my Samsung Charge rooted with GummyCharge FE 2.0. This was after I was unable to get Open Garden or Barnacle to work with the same set up.
I really would like to get Open Garden working with it. I like the software overall. Still, Wifi Hotspot has done me well thus far.

STOCK E4GT with root... when I try to load any version of Wifi Tether it makes my wifi radio not work again at ALL until I uninstall wifi tether AND run another app that utilizes the wifi radio like the kies app after a restart. This is consistent after 4 different version attempts. I do NOT want to try to the deodexed hotspot hack until the LOS fix is official, because I do not want to run anything but stock until then. Anyone in my boat that has figured out how to make it all play nicely?

Let me see if I have what you said right. Without any tether app installed, just the sprint hotspot, the hotspot works. But then if you install wireless or wifi tether it makes the sprint hotspot not work?
I had the same issue. Until I did the same.
Sent from my SPH-P100 using XDA App
...not entirely. I mean the wifi could not connect to an access point until I ran the kies app. Did not try the stock tether app, because I don't want to pay for a service that I may use a couple times a year.
Also, seeing your sig you may be the person to help me. What is the best speed controller/motor combo for an old school RC10T that I want to get going again in a big way? Reverse stopped working a while ago and I am pretty sure the motor is shot as well. Been seeing some people clock ridiculous speeds with some of the new repower kits out there.
Never have been an electric guy, always nitro. But the brushless stuff is where its at and running lipo batts. Castle creations is one of the best companies out along with teken. Pricey stuff but they are well worth it. If you want more shoot me a pm.

Funny, this has popped up in the forums for every phone I have owned. Why would someone want to game through a high latency, inconsistant cellphone connection? Trying to play in the motorhome on vacation?
If Sprint Hotspot gives you issues, you'll need to flash THIS ...but that'll limit you to 3G. Does the PS3 work with AD-HOC connections (which is what wifi tether and barnacles app creates)? I'm guessing it doesn't by default since you can't see it.
Not gaming although I did play the Uncharted 3 Beta thru my Vibrant & it wasn't a problem. I just moved and have to wait for Comcast for like 2 weeks. Just want to watch some Netflix

I think what I read on Google says I need to be in Infrastructure mode or something. Idk... But the native wifi tether worked with my Vibrant so I can't imagine why it wouldn't work here.
Thanks for the help fellas. Happy Thanksgiving & all that
