Needless to say I have a Dinc2, running Gingerbang Sense latest. Can't seem to get wifi tether working right. I installed wireless tether for root users and can't connect with my laptop, transformer, or friend's iPhone 4. None of the devices will grab an IP address.
What do I need to do to make this work?

I had this issue with the newer wifi tether and had to go back to "wireless tether for root users" version 2.0.8-pre1. Different versions yield different results, but it works fine for me now on MIUI and Tiamat kernel. Which version are you running?
i installed a different kernel and wifi tether 2.0.7 and it works fine now.
Thank you.

I have a simple question is there a way you can use the stock android tethering in a sense rom. While using a Sense rom with the wired(didn't work) and wireless tethering I preferred the tethering on CM6. Using PDANet was ok but the whole having to start on my phone and connect on my pc was kind of annoying. Also can we get the HTC camera from sense to work on stock Android. I'm pretty sure it has to have a sense framework installed but the camera is better than the stock Android one
Install this ROM/Includes Sense, Burnt Droid v1.2 and you will have what you want. Connect the phone to your laptop/desktop, select "USB tethering" and away you go.
With My phone connected to my LinkSys Wireless N router I am getting 11.65(down) and 3.78 (up), loving life.
Which rom?
I know it works with CM for wired and wireless. I'm using bakedsnack right now, meaning I'm having to use pdanet.

just download the pre9 release off of google

I'm still using EasyTether from when I was to lazy to root my hero and it works great. I prefer wired tethering to wifi because I don't have to worry about battery or other people getting on my connection. When I use it I only want it on my laptop anyway.
was just curious i just updated to valek 3.0 and loving it. and its the frist rom ive used with print usb tether and hotspot unlocked. when i have sprints usb on i cant connect to 4g network it scans and reconnects. but when i use easytether 4g is fine. is sprints tether only 3g or whats the deal with that. anyone know a work around to get 4g working or am just stuck with easytether or something.
just curious i wanted to try out sprints tether before i bought easy tether or PDAnet.
thanks
Stock Hotspot
Delete double-posting.
Stock Hotspot
This is a known issue, and I don't think anyone has come out with a fix for it yet.
The Vaelpak version of WiFi Tether works flawlessly on Ricsims Stock Turbo 3.70 however, and it is basically the same version of your ROM without the Vaelpak theme.
No need to purchase PDAnet or easy tether.
thanks for the reply i use this as my main internet connection at home through my desktop and dont have a wifi usb dongle paying for one would be just like paying for pdanet so i just use usb tether but ive used up my pdanet "trial" lol and easytether just doesnt seem as good so just wanted to try out the stock sprint usb tether but if i cant get 3g then maybe ill buy pdanet.
again thanks for the reply

wired tether 1.4
I am trying to get wired tether to work. I deleted libnativetask.so from /system/lib.
That got rid of the forced close problem. Now it starts fine and my laptop connect and gets an ip address. the problem I am having is that windows 7 says no internet access. I want to use this one cause i want to charge while i am tethered to 4G. Can anyone help?
Try wirelessly to see if its the phone or the computer causing the problem. I dont have windows (dont hate) so I cant help you there but the tethering works fine with me and I didn't have to delete any files.
I tested 3g and 4g on wireless tether and they both work fine.
So are you trying to use wired tethering on 3g or 4g? I am running latest myn rom and am able to get it working on 4g, but not 3g.
Here is the guide I used (and also wrote), but it sounds like you have already done what is suggested there... so I'm a bit at a loss. I would just try deleting and reinstalling the app.
I use google usb tether for 4g. Stock does nor seem ro work
you are right. i tested it on 4g and it works. That is weird. I can't get it to work for 3g.
Is there a way how to start 3g wifi hotspot on my defy running CM7?
download 'wireless tether' from market, works like a charm
it does not support infrastructure mode!
isn't working...
Hi there
I'm using nightly 110722 CM7 and almost everything is working flawless... I just couldn't found the wireless tether that should be available.
So my question is, and I'm sorry if it's a dumb one, the "Portable Wi-Fi Hotspot" option isn't available for Defy, or this is a "feature" of my Defy with green lens?
On the stock rom I remember that was a 3G Hotspot app, but it never worked.
I had installed Wireless Tether and gave to it root permissions, the software tells me that it is working, but nobody can see or connect to my network.
Thanks.
Use "Barnacle Wifi Tether".
Tested and works fine(Ad hoc).

I had to use another custom rom (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1156855) to make the the hotspot (infrastructure mode) working and I'm very happy with it.

Hello Theles!
To fix your hotspot app you have to set your apn settings correctly.
You can try APN Brasil (https://market.android.com/details?id=br.com.droidbrasil.apnbrasil&feature=search_result).
Then you have to set this parameter on the APN you're using:
APN Type: default,dun
I use wireless tethering from the market...ad hoc is fine for me since i just wanted to share for my ipad2 wifi
Hi
This is an old topic, I know. But now, the CM7 is offering Wireless and USB tether natively, under Wireless Network configurations.
I'm using the Nightly build 110822-1650 by Jordan and it's working like a charm, and, in infrastructure mode with WPA2, etc...
Thanks guys.
i am running calkulin 3.0 gingerbread rom which wireless tether will work and how do i get it to work tried several at no luck?
I use Foxfi. Sprint had it removed from the market, but you can download it from foxfi.com. If you want wired tether try http://code.google.com/p/android-wired-tether/. It has not been updated since 2010, but it works well. I prefer wired tether because it is fast, reliable, secure and uses less power.

You can use a third party tethering program but Sprint Hotspot is already hacked and ready to go in this ROM.
Wired tethering works as well.
