Tethering was working at one point. I am now running Starburst version 1.7 with the experimental LostKernal and everytime I try to activate the Sprint Hotspot it just says "Activating Sprint Hotspot" with a busy circle for as long as I let it try to connect.
Anyone know if this is a known issue (I searched both the starburst and the lostkernal threads and couldn't find the answer)?
Thanks.
Same thing happened to me.. ended up with a error and had to reboot.. I downloaded barnacle from market and it works 100% used to update a friends Xbox 360 last night..

if you want FroYo and working wifi tether, I would highly recommend the TeamFenix 1.7.1. I have been using it since it came out, it is very stable. with me being a trucker i use the tether almost everyday. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=749312
thanks, great info, are you also using gthe dopio kernel or as is?
Sent from my T-Mobile myTouch 3G Slide using XDA App
am using the newest of the Dopio 806 kernels
i have tried both the regular release of wi-fi teather (2.0.1 I believe) as well as the pre build that has worked with all the other roms released for the slide, the one reference in the developers section. Both will install and run set-up the first time I open them, but as soon as I click to start tethering my phone reboots.
I do remember that I had to install a different SU from one of eugenes releases to get wi-fi tether working for one of the other roms....but for the life of me I can't remember how I installed just that SU without installing the whole rom. I'm not a developer or even a decently smart guy if you can't tell
Barnacle is an open source wifi tether app in the market that works on windows and Ubuntu. When you start the app, you'll need to hit menu>settings and then check "Skip wpa_supplicant" for it to work. It may take a couple of tries to get it to work. But it works.
Thanks to Hellraz0r for the suggestion in the CM6 thread!
I have not tried CM6 yet, but was having problems with stock.
I installed wireless_tether_2_0_5-pre6.apk and all is well for the stock android at least.
wireless_tether_2_0_5-pre8.apk will say no internet, but wireless_tether_2_0_5-pre6.apk connects just fine. Could be a similar thing with CM6?
Well barnacle connects I did wat yu said but still doesn't load up the web page see

It's working for me. But, like I said, it may take a couple tries. This does seem to be a pretty "finicky" app. For instance, I fired up Windows and tried to connect to barnacle and the pc said it failed to connect and barnacle disappeared from the list. I hit the "Associate" button in the app tried to connect again after it came back on the list, then it worked. I'm using it right now.
Maybe try turning off your firewall for a minute? Or make it a trusted network?
Edit: I just tested my bandwidth and got this:

Flashed the Synergy rom about a week ago and it runs smoothly aside from a couple of issues. The internet app crashes constantly so I dl'ed Mozilla instead. But the main issue is the Wifi Tether. The one built in reboots my phone every time and the Wireless Tether I had installed prior to this rom crashes every time I open it. A fix is highly necessary considering my only source of internet is through my phone. Thanks in advance!!!
This is not a rom issue but a app issue. Try contacting the dev of the app.
Fyi: ( taken from the syndicate files ) you must select epic4g in settings of wifi teather before procasting your signal. If your trying to teather with 4g you must connect with 3g then switch to 4g

Im on the latest SPRINT LOVER ROM and using the latest WIRLESS TETHER APP. When I try to connect from any client, the evo does not show a notification that someone has connected and the client machine does not get an ip address. does anyone know why??
Thanks ...
Your EVO should vibrate when a client device tethers to it and when connected, the client should have an IP address.

Nope not working.. I have now tried my Laptop and an IPOD TOUCH.. neither work.. the network is shown and I can connect, but I dont get any notification on the phone and the laptop or IPOD do not get an IP ADDRESS....
BTW - Im running 2.0.8-PRE1 version of wifi tether on the evo4g. Also I notice that when I use the free wifi tether app and I start it up, I see 2 icons in the notification bar.. one of them is from the SPRINT HOTSPOT and says "0 users connected" .. Is that normal?
I've used the wireless tether app hundreds of times without issue, however, for some reason, I am unable to connect. Hopefully, it is because I'm using SalvageMod 1.2.1 AOSP Gingerbread rom. Normally, I use either Myn's RLS 5 or a rooted Stock ODEXED rom. I'm going to flash to one of the two momentarily and test it out again.

I have been using the wifi tether for months fine.. I had to reset my phone and install the latest sprint lovers ROM and thats when it started NOT working. I just uninstalled the WIFO TETHER I had installed and install the new 3.0 pre1 and STILL the same issue.. I can get my laptop to connect but no ip address and no notification on the EVO
Well, I flashed the stock rom and just finished tethering my MacBook to my EVO and it worked as it should. I'm not sure what the problem is with it not working with the "outstanding" SalvageMod 1.2.1 rom. I'm going to have to look into it. I can't understand why it is not working for you with the Sprint Lovers rom being that it is basically a rooted & deodexed stock rom. Have youvtried unistallung and reinstalling IR installing a previous version of the wireless tether app that you may have backed up somewhere?

Which version of the app did you use that worked?? Also Im not running the kernel that comes with the SPRINT LOVERS ROM. Im running a custom kernel for battery life....
UPDATE: EVEN the sprint mobile hotspot (which the sprint lovers rom has unlocked for 3G) doesnt work either.. I can connect but cant get an IP and no notification that I am connected to the phone
I'm using Wireless Tether version 2.0.7. Change kernels and see what happens. Try Netarchy 4.3.2 noHAvs noSBC noUV.
posting & replying via the XDA Premium app
Does the kernel have anything to do with this??
If kernels can effect camera and video, and believe me, they can, then it is possible for them to have an effect, to some degree, on wireless performance. Of course, I have no proof, but I've been flashing long enough to know that it's possible.

OK so I just installed BARNACLE WIFI TETHER from the APP STORE. Guess what? It connected and worked..

tried that.. even uninstalled and reinstalled and even tried the new 3.0 version.. NADA.. but BARNACLE WIFI TETHER WORKED ALL DAY...... I dont get it...
I would completly uninstall wireless tether, I had a simikar problem, after upgrading versions, I then installed older version and it worksfine, I am running ver 2.05 rc 2, and newest netarchy kernel, on stock odex 3.7 rom

As i stated earlier, I nandroided back to the stock ODEXED rom and Wireless Tether v2.0.7 worked well with it. It did not initially work with SalvageMod 1.2.1, but I chalk that up to user error. There is a setting for wireless tethering that I was unaware of at the time. Anyway, I can't understand why the app wont work with the OP's Sprint Lovers rom which is basically a deodexed version of the stock rom, but Barnacle's wireless tether app works well for him.

Is there a wifi tether out that is working for the e4gt ?

Check out the sprint hotspot hack. Sorry for no link. Think it might be in the themes/app section

The previous 2 posts handle all of your needs. Hotspot hack is only for 3g right now Wifi Tether works great for 4g needs

Any of these work in non-adhoc mode? Trying to get my HP Touchpad (cyangenmod) to work with it.

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.

...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.

Well it apperars that they figured out a way around the deleting the tethering manager. last night I was using my phone s awson internet connection and all of a sudden I got the tmo tethering page. I am on AOKP so I know the software is deleted. I tried different browsers and no luck I havent tried today but I assume they figured out a wasy this really sucks if anyone knows why let me know if there is another way around.
Try foxfi from the play store
