Please help! All suggestions are welcome.
After flashing OMJ's 2.2 ROM on the first day of its release (knowing that wireless tether would not work), something has been preventing wireless tether from working in all ROMS.
I have tried everything I know (which is not much)... different combos of radios and wimaxes, several different ROMs (based off both 1.3x and 1.4x), different kernels... nothing can get it working.
I am guessing that there may be data somewhere that did not get wiped through recovery or through doing my nand restore.
Thanks!
There are a couple different updates for the Wireless Tether app floating around. Versions 2.0.5 pre 4, pre 5, and pre 6. I've had success with all of them varying by rom. Can't post the links right now, but some of the rom threads have them posted in the OP. You'll probably have to try each one til you find the one that works. One of them should.
[EDIT] I think there's a pre 7 also.

wireless hotspot for 3g works fine on cm6. it's a 2.2 aosp rom. no sense. don't ask about including sense. won't happen. 4g currently doesn't work, and i'm not sure that a 4g hotspot will, because sprint's implementing a MAC confirmation with 4g hotspot (they really wanna charge you 30 bucks a month for it).
but, 3g hotspot works fine on cm6 2.2. that's my point. that's all there is, don't ask for more.
other roms have 4g functioning, so i'd assume 4g hotspot works on those, if you pay for it.

I know pre7 works on my ROM and most other Froyo ROMs.
Pre7 only works on the HTC stock kernels iirc. If you're using an oc kernel please try the other versions listed of it doesn't work for you

yea the pre 7 works, you can jus google it like i did
sorry that I did not make this clearer in the original post but I have indeed tried all of the different wireless apps (including pre 7) with a variety of ROMs and nothing is working.
The problem I am focusing on is that I originally had wireless tether working on fresh 1.01 (based off 1.47), I created a nand backup, flashed OMJ's 2.2 ROM, then when I restored back to the Fresh ROM my wireless tether was kaput.
None of the combinations of different version of the app, ROM, kernel, radio, and wimax (and I have probably tried 50+ unique combinations over the past week) have provided any working results.
I even went through the entire ROOT process again, and still nothing is working.
EDIT: What I'm trying to emphasize here is that once I flashed a 2.2 ROM wireless tether stopped working on ALL ROMs... even the 1.3x and 1.4x based ROMs
I have the same problem... the program starts just fine but the download data amount gets stuck at . 4 and my laptop can't find the connection at all. Had OJ Rom and now running latest version of fresh... please help!

Well I installed the pre-8 version of wireless tether and it worked one night and then I had the same problem... I'm using easy tether now until I can get this thing working again. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Wireless Tether is working fine for me.Fresh 3.0.1 w/Netarchy Kernel 4.0.3 and pre-8 tether .apk

I understand that for nearly everybody wireless tether IS working. However, given the ludicrous number of combinations I have tried, including everybody's latest and greatest app/ROM/kernel it is safe to say that my problem does not lie in the use of something out of date.
I need NEW suggestions from someone way more experienced than myself.
pretty weird - mine has worked on every rom I've tried.
have you tried CM6?
Also where exactly are you getting stuck?
im having the same problem tried pre 8 now 7 both say activating wifi interface failed, starting access point -failed,
Tether working fine, except I can't watch espn videos for some reason.

try this maybe
Had the issue after running ava v3.
Wipe everything, data cash, dalvik. Dont flash your previous radios or wimaxs, they arent for froyo. Once everything is wiped flash your new rom. Evio 1.1 works great. When you open wifi tether, it should ask you for user permission, if it doesnt somethig is wrong with your su app.
We need more details about your issue. Otherwise all anyone can suggest is wipe everything and flash another rom and try runnig the app. Or like someone else suggested uninstall and reinstall verious versions. But the first time you run wifi tether super user should pop up, if it doesnt this is what is preventing u from running wifi tether.
I'm sorry I did not specify exactly what was happening, but I thought that since this was a well known error for the early adopters of 2.2 people would be familiar with the nature of my problem.
When I put ANY rom on my evo (regardless of whether it's 2.1 based or 2.2) my wireless tether program does not send data. The app itself works fine (gets SU request), creates a network, it just doesn't transmit data because of the authentication Sprint worked into froyo.
My UNIQUE problem, is that this problem persists even when not using those early 2.2 roms. I have tried HUNDREDS of variations of radios/wimax/app editions/ROMs/kernels (including the latest releases) and it does not matter what I do, when I start up wireless tether it stops at .4kb and will not transmit the connection to my computer.
I have gone beyond wiping all of my data (through amon recovery), I even went back tot he 1.3x RUU and went through the whole root process AGAIN and still the problem persists.
There is something on this phone that the data wipes are not removing that is blocking this function, and I do not know how to revert it back. PLEASE HELP.
ive got mine working but its alot slower then even dialup..tried 7 and 8 and same results with both.. Tried on the AC rom and a stock rooted here (using a stock rooted off this forum which the op says works fine for him ...

Just went back through all older versions of wireless tether and everything below pre-6 doesnt broadcast at all
Any other suggestions could it be a conflict with my kernel
2.0.5-RC2 working for me on 2.2 froyo :

Hello everyone,
I am running the latest version of CM7 on my Evo and for whatever reason, when i connect the phone to my laptop, I do not get any pop up menu or anything, that gives me the option for tethering or mass storage mode. Does anyone know what could be wrong, or a possible work around?
Thanks!
This is a known issue with the cm7 wimax rom with the .34 wimax kernel. You can either flash a different kernel and experiance other problems or try downloading an app from the market to mount USB to computer. Search mount USB in search of market. I use widhetsoid. And it works okay.
Sent from my WiMax infested cm7 Super...Mario...Saiyen...Street Fighter...oh yeah SuperSonic.gginggerbread!!!
Or like I said try Samba sharing and connect to your phone without cables (over wifi). Sometimes I forget my cable and this saves me. You can find it here https://market.android.com/details?id=com.funkyfresh.samba
as others have said this is a known issue with CM7. We got wimax working mostly but a enw set of bugs are being worked on to get everything up to par. I stick with the old alpha 3 beta personally when i feel like playing with CM.
i know its a hassle but
I was able to boot in to recovery having the same issue and mount storage directly this way like i say i know it is a pain but at least it works.
Do we have one that supports it?
I take it that is a no

GN still new, give it couple more months and there will be more infor about it.
I have tethered via USB wire on mine with stock ROM. It's ITL41F with 3.0.1 kernel. You need the RNDIS driver on your computer.
I have wired and wireless tethering working. Using Gummynex 0.3.0 with Lean kernel 1.1. I do have SDK installed on my machine and when rooting I did install Samsung drivers from 2 different locations. When I turned on wired tether in Settings my Win7 pc said "installing new hardware" and then it installed successfully. Don't know if it installed successfully because I had all that crap installed prior or if the OS and phone already had the drivers built in. None the less, it works with that ROM.
Hello all, sorry if this is a repeat and all but I'm new to this and just came from an iPhone. After I rooted and flashed CM9 my USB tether does not work from the stock from or with pdanet. Its my only source of internet. Please help. Is there just a driver missing now?

USB Conx Issues After CM9 Flash
I am also having problems: I finally got my E4GT to take a custom rom (Thanks mobile ODIN!), but ever since the flash, my computers will not connect with the phone. It recognizes it as a SPD D710, but will not allow transfers. Kies says USB debugging needs to be turned off, but it is.
So I restored to my nandroid I made prior to the flash, but it did not fix the issue. I have tried re-flashing, and no luck.
TIA
