Swiftkey'ed on my CM9 Galaxy Nexus

Actually, I I am trying to get my Nexus to connect to my ipad hot spot (only creates an ad hoc connection). I heading overseas and the ipad data plan is multi country and cheaper than getting data on the Nexus.

ICS in Galaxy Nexus has it by default, hasn't it?
Yeah, its under settings->wireless & networks->More->Tethering & hotspots
You can also try opengarden in the marketplace

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

Thread needs to be moved.
I don't have the answer to your question, but assuming you're using Windows, you could try using Connectify in order to create a hotspot from your laptop. It works well with my Galaxy Nexus!

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.

You can try the way I have posted for tethering to game consoles in general

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.

In the settings for the Wi-Fi tether app go to device profile and select your device

Suggestions?

I currently have the 16 gb wifi Nexus 7 (2013). As everyone knows the new LTE model was just made available.
Should I buy a T mobile lte hotspot
Or
The lte Nexus model
PS I have a sprint note 2 and my coverage is terrible, so that's why I'm not tethering from this

I'd say the tmobile hotspot would be more useful as you can tether other devices or share the connection out to other family members. However, it is one additional device to carry around. :victory:

I would think it's annoyance but if I'm going to have my Nexus with me I'm going to have a backpack anyway and a smaller hotspot wouldn't be too bad.... Would it? Lol

You'd be surprised. I can palm the N7 with a single hand and it also fits in quite a few of my walking short front pockets (ie. sliding completely in and out of sight). So I'd say a backpack is not a must with the N7.
Definitely not but it just seems as though I always have a backpack so bringing a small additional device wouldn't add any noticeable additional weight

I would choose the LTE model myself. You should be able to use that as a hotspot to other devices when needed, and the rest of the time you wouldn't have to worry about keeping an extra device charged and watching battery. Just my opinion.

I just wanted to update my post to let you know that there are some conflicting reports on the ability to tether the US version of the LTE Nexus 7, so check that before you make a decision. See the LTE thread in the general section.
