Develop Bugs

Gingerbread source kernel available from HTC today

7.29.11
Sorry if its a late pass, but the source kernels for the gingerbread update for a whole slew of new HTC phones, including the incredible 2 are available today from the HTC website.
This allows developers to get cracking on a root method for the 2.3 update right?

I'd be happy for an oc sense kernel as well. All the aosp roms are too buggy for me. But uv and better schedulers would make sense even more perfect and better battery life.
Sent from my ADR6350

Can't wait for some developers to put out custom sense kernels! This phone is about to smoke.

I just want root on 2.3.

Forget WiFi tether. I just want to be able to use Titanium Backup so I can restore my apps data from my previous phone. Debloating would be nice, but this is my first HTC phone, so I have plenty of exploring around Sense to do in the meantime. Really missing Root Explorer as well

Have to wonder if this has anything to do with the "Revolutionary" news from Unrevoked & AlphaRev TBA.....

sprint hotspot error

hey guys ive been trying to get my hotspot to work on this phone its new to me im coming from an evo 4g i had everything working great with the evo but my e4gt just doesnt want to allow me to tether for some reason. im running blazer rom and when i try to activate the hotspot i get an error message the same happens with caulkins rom also i have been unable to get any version of wifi tether to work either my question is why my kernel is ek02 does this kernel not support the hacked hotspot? i appreciate any help i can get with this.

I'm not sure about wifi tether but why not use the hacked sprint hotspots app? That would work.

This phone does AD-hoc and not infrastructure..... Evo did infrastructure but hardly any new phones do now.... If you want to connect via infrastructure you will have to use hacked sprint hotspot

There's no message it says error in the little checkbox when you try to turn it in and then it turns back off

You usually get that error when you are on stock and have not signed up for Hotspot service. Are you sure you are on a Custom Rom?
And Sprint Hotspot is infrastructure mode

I had that problem numerous times...I had to redownload the rom. You have a corrupted download. Hope that helps.

FYI beta 11 crashes on my phone. I use senzation rom and it has the sprint hotspot cracked so no need for wifi tether. However you don't have have a rom with a cracked hotspot that is the way to go.

Requires root, though. I take it that's the norm for tethers that won't reveal to Sprint you're tethering?

Try FoxFI...so far working flawlessly allowing me to tether my Kindle Fire to my Epic Touch 4g. I've not tried it on a laptop. FYI, I'm rooted on stock ROM.

wait a minute, if your on blazer 4.0 such as your op states then just open your app drawer, click the sprint hotspot icon and enjoy. just throwing that out there.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium

Yeah. That's what I was going to say. If you run into a problem with it, get the deodexed EL29 modded hot spot and flash in recovery. If you have stock rooted EL29 then get the odexed EL29 hot spot mod flash. There was one from that said it had the mod but it didn't work when I tried it. I got the appropriate zip and flashed it and that fixed it. Even if you run the app and its not modded, you can't tether until you call sprint and they turn it on for your account. The hot spot mod is the preferred tether method because its infrastructure mode, which is the most compatible with other wifi things.

Didn't realize Blazer had the hacked hot spot, now I can tether to my Nook Tablet

With Blazer 4.0 the hotspot is already cracked so theres no need to flash anything or change anything for it. I personally use wifi tether. You can set access control and all that good stuff.

This post has worked great for me.

T-Mobile Unlimited Data and Tether?

I was so excited for the unlimited data plan with tmobile so i upgraded and only too find out that you cant tether, so my question is...has any developer found away around this yet? I am so fustrated with rmobile that im actually considering leaving the company for sprint so i can get my unlimited tether and its a shame because i loved tmobile in the past
And to answer everyones question i have tried rooting and a few custom roms and probably every app out there that i can think of to tether
If anyone is able to figure this out or if you found a workaround please let me know thru email [email protected]

Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-T989 using xda app-developers app

i had problems before getting redirected to tmobile's site while tethering with my laptop, all i had to do was download a user agent switcher addon for firefox and changed it to a mobile device and it worked again. seems they block regular http connections only. https will work fine without switching the user agent. only downside to changing the user agent is all the sites will load as the mobile versions which can get annoying at times.
then again this was back in november so it might be different now? haven't had to use it since then..

Seriously..for the life of me I can't figure out how this question still comes up. We've had leak after leak and in every thread for every rom this is asked dozens of times. I'm not usually one to chime in on things like this, but it's become so ridiculous it's borderline laughable.
OP, this isn't really a dig directly at you, but for everyone that keeps asking. Simply searching or even reading a thread would have given you an answer.

someone special just needs to "mod" the stock native sprint wifi app. its been done on past devices, epic, evo, etc., just don't get why the S3 is lacking when it comes to getting the native wifi app working, neither on ICS or JB.
it's annoying having to rely on third party apps and having to jump through hoops to get one working.
i'd gladly donate funds to make it happen if need be.

WiFi Tether does rely on some features of the kernel to work. Perhaps they (Sprint?) changed he Touchwiz kernel for Jelly Bean that broke WiFi Tether.

I think the GSIII for U.S. is not included in the program's driver list. The International version works though. However, there's a program you can download from the PlayStore called Easy Tether. After downloading, follow the instructions to download the Windows (or whatever your OS is). Transfer the program onto your computer and install. Then connect your phone to your PC and you'll have tethering thru USB.
One other thing. The free (unregistered) version will let you browse the Internet but you cannot access Secure sites. You need to upgrade to paid (registered) version in order to access the Secure sites (emails, etc.). It's only $9.99 (one time purchase).
