I have rooted my Sprint Samsung Epic 4g Touch and flashed the Starburst Rom. I then installed the latest version of android-wifi-tether (3.7 I think), my question is am I able to share the 4g connection via tether or just the 3g? Starting tethering seems to kill the 4g connection?

Which version of Wifi Tether are you using exactly? Is it 2.7 or 3.0 or 3.1 beta something? Mine doesn't do that at all

3.1 Beta7, should I try a different version?
So I should be able to share my 4g with my Xoom?

Well, I have used 3.1 beta 6 tons of times and it doesn't do any of the things you mentioned. The older versions forced you to turn off 4g then tether then turn back on 4g but that was fixed. Try the one I mentioned and if it doesn't work, maybe its a ROM or kernel issue

well i press on it and it just says it started but then it says error show log. it just shows that it failed. please help
What app are you using to tether?
Also.. what version of tether are you using? I had best luck with 2.05 if you can find it.
Honestly, wireless tether has been spazzmodic lately; I suggest using the built in hotspot...works just as nice.
the wireless tether app, and when i press it , it just says error. help :/

Yep still on MIUI. I average about 1.5Mbps down. No 4G but my 3G speeds are so good that I could care less about 4G. Also, MIUI has built in tethering that works splendidly.
If you can try another rom such as miui for instance like others have stated, you'll find you have better luck with tethering using the built in hotspot. I struggled with wireless tether as well but that 2.05 rc1 version i think it was worked good for me. some more info on your part like what rom, version of tether etc your using would help
downloading miui as we speak hehe

i pay for tethering (yeah dumb i know) but i have a rooted epic 4g touch and im using the miui rom. it doesnt have the sprint hotspot apk and i cant find it anywhere. can anyone help me with this. the built in tethering in the rom does not work for me at all. i think its because im using the 7.0 plus and they do/dont have adc hoc. thanks in advance

Since the AOKP rom has the new kernel incorporated into it i decided to flash it
i was previously on Calkulin's rom 1.6 (GB) with the sprint hotspot hack and i was wondering if there is some type of hotspot hack on aokp or something like it
I've tried to get wifi tether and foxfi to work....but they dont like me

Wow, i'm sorry. (smh @ myself) I just switched to M'ICS and Foxfi doesn't work for me either. it worked for my on GB. I have the Sprint HotSpot and that works. I know you don't have it but have you searched in the devolopment section? I believe there was a thread on 3g/4g hotspot hack. I've never used wifi teather. Sorry I couldn't help you more.
Edit: the hotspot hack is only for FF18 stock.

i look at the thread in the dev section but first of all it looked to complicated for me to do lol and second i believe it said its for Stock FF18 -_-
Foxfi or wireless tether from google. I am not sure what your settings may be but I ran both of them flawlessly. Do not use a password and see what happens

I believe I tried Foxfi I was only on it for a minute been flashing like crazy. Did you try turning off the encryption portion. I dont have that phone with me now to flash and try sorry....
I think this is the 5th time I've posted this in a week. On ics use wifi tether for root users from market. Set your device in the app to galaxy nexus cdma to make it work.
worked for me!

Yes. I just upgraded to FF18. Foxfi did not work but wifi tether did. Although it did not work set to galaxy nexus but does work when set to auto.
Go figure? Thanks for the tip!
So I thought I would report that I got Wifi Tether for Root Users to work on AOKP M6 by setting the device profile to galaxy nexus.
Also, I've found that using the EL29 modem gives the fastest speeds. I was testing 250-300 kbps down with FF18, I get 1200+ kbps on EL29.
You know there's a profile for our device...

Hi
What is the fastest way to enable free wireless tethering on a stock sprint HTC evo 4g.
It is my father inlaws phone, I don't want to do anything major like install a custom rom if possible.
Thanks so much for the responses.
Just search "no root Wi-Fi tether" on the market. Try the first one that pops up called one click tether or something like that.

You are going to have unlock it and then you can leave the stock rom on it but you need to look for a hack wifi hotspots zip file and then he can keep the stock rom and have hotspots for free

If for some reason rooting is not an option for you and finding a wireless wifi is not working because you're not rooted... Then resort to plan B and go USB tether with PDAnet
With the new wifi tether beta version, what settings do you use to make it work properly? I am getting an error?

I apologize if I am repeating this question. I did searches on several of the forums with no results. I'm fairly new to flashing and have the CNA rom installed on my Epic 4g Touch. I have the 4g working and hotspot works, but I can't get the 4G to work WITH the hotspot. It goes back to 3g when I start the hotspot. I was able to use 4g hotspot on the rooted stock rom.
Is this something that doesn't work on the CNA rom?
Thanks!
Have you tried WiFi tether ?

Thanks, that did the trick although I had to manually disable WiFi before starting the app in order for 4G to stay on.
