kernel 2.6.32.9

What is the trick to getting the WiFi hotspot to work after being Rooted? I grabbed the WiFi tether file and installed. The phone can be seen by my laptop but the laptop cannot connect. I initially tried it with WEP enabled and it didn't work so I did it as an Open network and still no success.
I'm also having trouble connecting my EVO to connect to my company VPN. We use WPA2 Enterprise which the factory VPN client does not natively support. I tried installing OpenVPN but have been unsuccessful with that. Any help is greatly appreciated and thanks in advance!
bump...bump...
How about... Some details.
ROM?
Kernel?
Software versions?
Have you tried other ROMs?
Have you tried other kernels?
Have you tried other tethering apps?
I had the exact same issue....all you have to do is go to the website and download version 8 works like a charm

Do you have media control enabled? If so, when you connect to your hotspot you need to approve your client via your EVO.

Hi,
I rooted my EVO (temporary root using z4root 1.3). Installed wireless tether from market. Not sure of the version. Ran with defaults. Could not see the device from GTAB. Tried my notebook I am able to see and connect to my device but no internet. Network status says limited or no connectivity. Upgraded wireless tether to latest experimental version from google site.. still the same result. (wireless_tether_2_0_5-pre15.apk). I know my phone is rooted as I get messages saying I am super user.
1)Whats the wireless tether version that is working for others on EVO?
2)Is there any other setup needed on the EVO for this to work ?
thanks
I have an Evo hardware version 004, that I set S-OFF using zikronix's "Like A Boss Edition" tutorial. After that I flashed xxbabiboi228xx's rooted 3.30.651.3 stock ROM (odex version.) Finally, I installed Wireless Tether 2.0.5-RC1.
The problem I am having is that Wireless Tether successfully gains root privileges, starts, the resulting Wi-Fi network can be connected to, and the client successfully obtains an IP address, but there is no Internet connectivity. The phone is on a 3G network.
Does anyone have information that might help me fix this problem?
Thanks!

with the client device connected start a download on the phone, or even browse around google maps to keep an active connection, while doing that try and access the web on the client continually. once the client connects you should be good to stop the active use on the phone.
if that doesnt work try pre8 and the same as above

No dice, same issue. Thanks for the suggestion though.
Try flashing Myn's RLS4 and just using the sprint hotspot app you shouldn't have any problems.

Hello,
I an running stock rooted 4.2.2 on vzw gnex. I have been using wifi tether since I got the phone and now with 4.2.2 it is not working. I get started with errors warning. log shows failed to configure AP and start AP.
I tried MWALT2s disable of native tether check which seem to run fine in recovery but I still get the same errors.

Has anyone with stock rooted 4.2.2 been able to get wifi tether working?
Thanks,

the wifi tether app no longer works but the built-in tether does. there's a copy of a modified version of wifi tether floating around (actually, in this Q & A forum thread!) that some are saying does work but I have not tested it myself (yet)
{edited to add} well, I just installed the hacked version of wifi tether and it works perfectly. the link to it is here in the Q & A thread so you should be able to find it. you will need "unknown sources" checked to allow it to install...
I just recently upgraded my GS3 to the newest baseband and firmware. I also updated my current ROM (Dandroid).
Now when I try to use the WiFi Tether for Root app, it just says "Tethering Started with Errors". The app will then saying it is running but it's SSID will not show up on any of my devices.
Does anyone know what the problem is or have another app they use for WiFi tether?
