I am running kernalpanic's rom for the Nirto HD and it is great! I was wondering if anyone knows how to fix the wifi tether so is does not alert ATT that I am using it?
Thanks,
I've heard of a couple of ways to do it, but never really seen solid instructions. I'm using a USB tether setup that is supposed to be unseen by AT&T.
What one do you use? I have tried a couple but was not to impressed...
I'm using ClockWorkMod Tether. The link below will give you all you need for it. It's a USB tether only though.

edit: I forgot to say that it is a free install, but you are limited to a daily usage amount. I paid the $4.99 in-app donation to gain full access with unlimited usage. I felt it was worth it for my situation.
Ok, I will give it a try. Thanks!! I hope there is a CyanogenMod rom soon for this phone...!!!
I have just posted instructions on how to enable the built in tethering in the phone.

I found it, thanks a lot! Ever found out if Att charges for using it this way? I am kinda hesitant to try it...
Thanks though!!

Hey guys, I asked this a couple of days ago but I don't think I've received any responses. Again I'm new to all this. I have a Rooted evo and I'm using the WiFi tether. It seems very slow when downloading pages. I'm currently using version 2.0.5 pre11 of the tether with a download speed of 4kbps and for uploading
I'm getting 5kbps is this normal? One more thing, is the Wifi tether supposed to be as strong as sprints hotspot app?

I've not had any troubles as far as download and upload speeds are concerned. Although it may seem like a dumb question do you get notably faster speeds on the phone itself?
This may be unrelated by I had a lot of trouble with android-wifi-tether using anything besides channel one. The main problem I'd have using any other channel is my computer would keep disconnecting from my phone. Like I said it's probably unrelated but it may be something to try.
Yes it does seem as if I get faster speeds on the phone, has anyone else noticed this yet. I think I'll try channel 1 to see if it makes a difference. Thanks for your response I appreciate it.

Try Caulkins USB tethering fix also try another version of wifi tethering or try pdanet. You need to try other options to help pinpoint what's wrong. Also are you actually tethering since 4kb is what it gives out when you first just turn the software on

Hi are there any roms out that offer free hotspot because with the new unlimited data plan coming out I will lose my hotspot feature and hope there is a Rom that will allow me to keep it

I use this app to pretty good effect. I don't know about roms with it baked in; the CM iterations usually have them, but I don't know about others.

I just got an S III and hotspot will be a return and/or sell the phone issues. I installed this app, and it works so far. I read in a different thread that one user got messages from TMo and that it was subsequently blocked.
Have you used it enough to run into this? i don;t need it a lot, but would like to find a solution that has proven out to users.
as far as I know they are not allowed to cut you off due to wireless tethering anymore. I use the same app, though not very often, and I have had no problems

Thanks - good to know. Too bad the easy APN fix that works on HTC devices doesn't here.
Just get an app? There's a lot out there that work after rooted.
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?

Bump was accidental. Was just trying to edit my original post.
I have managed to resolve my issue on my own for anyone that ran into the same problem as me, and here are the settings
App: latest Wifi tether for root users trevE mod
Profile :generic ics/jb wlan0
Enable "send netd max client cmd"
Hope this helps

So this allows tether without the 15-25 dollar plan?

Contrary to popular opinion, we can't read every post or thread out there. Can't move what we don't know about. That is why there is a Thread Maintenance drop down in the Report. You know, you hit it.

Can someone please help? I was running wifi tether for root users for months but I have been having issues connecting my kindle for the past 3 or 4 days. I recently flashed a new ROM, wicked jb v5 but even after that it was still working flawlessly. I updated my wicked jb to v6 ROM today but it still doesn't work. Can someone please help me because the tethering is so necessary for me as I'm sure it is for a lot of other t-mobile rooted customers.
Simple question in need of a simple answer: is the reason why the app doesn't work on 4.3 because we need insecure, modded kernels with iptables, etc?
I completely rely on tethering to get online lol
thanks for the replies guys
not sure about all of that. but another member pm'd me with a mod for the 4.3 roms that allows tethering. ill post it soon, but he msy have already put it up in the rom thread.
it should help anyone on a 4.3 TW rom.

Thanks for the reply doc! He has already posted it in yours or Saranai's thread (not sure which one) but it ended up killing my 2.5gb of tethering instead of masking it as phone data. When I use TrevE 's Wifi Tether app coupled with a VPN it just shows as phone data usage and not tethering, giving me unlimited data since I'm on the $70 plan. Make sense? haha
was it sn older one? im not seeing it. itd be posted by theArtizan.

Might have been an older one. The one I used was uped by a Spanish guy I think, or he had a Spanish sounding name. Can you give me link or a way to find this post by TheArtizan? Highly appreciated
Is there a way to tether for free on 4.3 stock TW rom? Even if it's not using TrevE Wifi Tether? I really need a way to tether on my Galaxy S3 with 4.3. Since I upgraded last week I haven't managed TrevE or any other tethering app to work on my S3.

Hope this helps
Thanks!
I'm on Virgin Mobile S3 and it has no native tethering and doesn't even offer it as an add-on. I wonder if it's safe to flash?

I second that. Been using it all day.
Wouldn't risk it... make a backup though. I believe its safe for all variants of the s3 but could be wrong. You could test it haha
For those interested, working Wi-Fi tether on the Virgin Mobile Galaxy S3 build MK5 4.3. I assume this app would work for those not able to get Wireless Tether to work on 4.3
