It should work fine try the samurai tanto kernel I can wifi tether through the native hotspot and don't have to even run another app.

Are u using a cable to tether or wireless?

You'll probably have to use a different kernel, if there's one that fixed the problem. When you enable tether in cm9 settings it automagicly turns back off. At least this was the case for me. The built in hotspot was the only wireless tether that other phones and tablets could see in my case, I went back to cm7 and all works perfectly.

If you use the built in tethering can you be tracked like on gingerbread?

The built-in wifi hotspot feature will ask you to add tethering to your phone plan before you can even enable it. I currently use "wifi hotspot and usb tether" app from the market and it works flawlessly on my unrooted (stock) Galaxy Nexus LTE phone.
I guess searching is hard

Lol.....

how do I find my nexus when its in airplane mode?

Just what the title says. Had a few cocktails last night and put it in airplane mode at some point. Its in my house somewhere (I own a ****ing huge home btw) and is just flashed cm9 if that helps any.
I don't have ANY lost your phone apps installed. The only app I have installed is xda I think. Just flashed cm9 yesterday.

i think that you should use the old fashioned way, searching it manually
no connection and/or "find your phone" app... no party
That's what I figured. Was hoping for a miracle answer.

this feature is still in development
It is connected to my wifi though. Emails still go through right? That would make a notification sound (hopefully)
For the record.... I wanted a small house. My wife thought it'd be cute to have a big one. I guess she never thought about losing cell phones in airplane mode when we signed the dotted line.

Found it. It was inside the otterbox cover for my HTC EVO View 4G.
Why the hell did I put it in there?

Automatic turning om shared internet for my Nexus 7

Tasker : I have S3 and Nexus 7. I was thinking maybe I could use the NFC and tasker to easy/automatic set up shared internet on the s3 when I bump the devices together. Any thoughts?

Are you asking , can you turn on the wireless hotspot , by touching the devices together using nfc?

Download wireless tether for root, then set the device profile to Samsung galaxy sIII and hit tether. I tether to my Asus transformer prime when I'm at school.

I don't think it's possible by itself.... But in theory you could get tectiles and attach one to your nexus 7, program it to turn the hotspot on.

I was considering that. I have ordered them and was thinking maybe I could place one on the inside of a case for the Nexus so IT wont be visible.

Nexus 7 tethering.

Hey guys I've been trying to tether my N7 with the Dinc2 with barnacle. Some help would be appreciated, everything works alright on the barnacle end but the N7 won't pick it up. Any suggestions? I'm on the latest cm10.

Just try WiFi Tether instead. It's by Google and is the best one

Thanks, but with WiFi tether it gets to the point of connecting to the WiFi and just sits there trying to connect. But at lest it finds the connection this time.

alright, if you run into issues let me know.
also; if it doesn't work. the n7 will most likely pick up the built in tether from CM7, my ps3 did.
