So i'm conflicted. - Samsung Epic 4G Touch

For some reason on GB I am unable to download roms on my phone but I can have a functioning tether. But on ics its the total opposite. I have no Internet at home due to lack of funds but my girlfriend want to do her usual Facebook browsing on the computer.
Is there any wifi tether apps that you would suggest or is there an ics rom that I may have overlooked that has it working?

search the market wireless thether u need root

Sprint Hotspot works flawlessly on the Blu Kuban ICS rom. Haven't had it working on any others yet.

Seems to me the answer is to fix your gb roms. My issue with downloads on gb roms has been one of two things ; need to download "download all" app from market or move/delete files from download folder to make room.

On ics there is wifi tether for root users, get from market. Just set device to galaxy nexus cdma and it works great for 4g tether.
On gb foxfi works well

Because that's the setting that makes it work with our phone. Don't think too much into it just set it and forget it

Yeah wifi tether works.

Wireless Tether

I've tried installing two different wireless tethers and neither one wants to work. I'm rooted with stock rom. Any ideas/suggestions?
Sent from my SPH-D710 using XDA App
You sure its not working?? Its a adhoc connection and most tablets wont pick that up. My desktop sometimes wont either but to fix that i have to switch my wifi on the desktop off and on then it sees the connection

which rom are you using? i had that problem before when i was trying wifi tether hack apps but i download a rom that actually had the hotspot hack which allow to use the sprint hotspot and that worked like a charm.
i also suggest you to try using ( Hotspot hack ) posting on the development section.
i hope that helped
Thanks guys. I'm using stock rom. When I had my evo, it worked like a charm.

I am having the same kind of problem; wifi tether does not work. I was on rooted stock rom, then Calkulin 1.5a. On the client side, I tried Ubuntu 11.10, Window XP, both detected the ad-hoc device, but just could not establish connection. I am using the hotspot hack, which work without issue.
I'm on add ROM with sprint hot spot and it works perfectly.

Exact same problem for me to. It work on my EVO and now I have a ET4G rooted. The wifi tether stable and beta do not work.
Any ideas?
Thre developer is aware and hopefully going to fix this for our phone.

" Infrastructure mode, unlike ad-hoc mode, allows multiple devices and devices that don't support ad-hoc mode to connect to the Wi-Fi access point spawned by the app, so it's definitely something we want. I've also asked about getting infrastructure mode on the*Epic Touch 4G, which uses a newer Broadcom chipset, to which Harald replied "we will see." Fingers crossed here."

I use wireless tether from the market and works great. I know on a past phone I had to create a folder on my SD card called android.tether with a bin file in it. I don't know if that is why mine works or not.

[Q] hotspot

Are there any roms that have hotspot hacked like the evo was, because the wifi hotspot I downloaded from the playstore is hit or miss and most of the time it does not work.Thanks.
Cm10 and cm9 I have no idea about touchwiz based roms tho just read through the roms thread and see if they do have it that's the best you can do but cm10 and cm9 have wifi hotspot!

For TouchWiz Roms. go to Google Play. Download Wifi Tether for Root Users. Open up the settings and set the device profile to Samsung Galaxy Nexus (CDMA/LTE)
but you said that was a hit or miss. so idk. thats the only one i know

Free tether?

How easy is it to get free tethering on this phone? Same as on the Evo?

Download WiFi Tether for Root Users from Google Play, simple as that. Although it will (as the name implies) require root access.
Yeah I use WiFi Tether all the time. Just make sure you change the profile to Samsung Galaxy Nexus CDMA/LTE and it will work.

while wifi tethering is not working on jb, you can use the native tether which is either bluetooth or usb. delete all of the tether apps you've installed and wipe Dalvik cache.
WiFi tether works on CM10. :good:

WIFI TETHER on JELLY BEAN (FAKE)

So the title says it all!
This is aimed at us GS3 owners who are fortunate enough to be running Jelly Bean thanks to Freeza...Well one of the down sides of the LJ7 JB update is that WiFi Tether no longer works for us! What a shame!!
Well I may just have a solution that will make you and your phone very very happy.
Follow the steps below:
1) Download WiFi Tether app from Play Store
2) Open app, and hit Menu, then tap Settings
3) There should be an option in Settings to configure your device with the app, in that option change Galaxy SIII to Galaxy Nexus!​This worked for me and I am now enjoying the pro's of LJ7 JB while tethering like a boss! haha
If this worked, please hit that thanks button, it helps me greatly
which app? theres tons........ and is this for rooted or non rooted??

Did not work for me.

Did you save? It should work, Its been working for me.
I am trying this but I can not make it work. The app says that it is working but nothing can see the SSID or connect.
I tried both of the nexus options and it's a no go.
Doesn't work
I'm just going to assume this method does not work. Sprint blocked the tethering in purpose, it doesn't work on jelly bean for the moment, unless you can show proof?

Nope.
Fail
Doesn't work.
Btw, anyone looking for working tether on a ROM, as far as i know, all AOSP ROMs have it working, it's the TW ROMs that are having problems.

So this whole wifi tether issue. It seems fixable at some point and time. I had the hotspot working for like 2 days but never paid anything extra for it. It no longer works so I guess sprint is paying attention to something. LOL. I love the Jellybean though.
Tried it already...no go
Sent from my SPH-L710 using xda app-developers app
Already tried them all. None work on JB...don't waste your time.
Does anybody know if it's possible to do USB tethering on Jelly Bean?
USB tethering works fine for me, using the 'easytether lite' app. Let's hope the wifi team solves the JB issue soon.

Working WIFI-Tether!!

It WORKS!!
FIRST thanks to TrevE > http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1988735
now how it works on the SPRINT NOTE 2
stock rooted w/ latest update PALJC
if not already then update Super-SU from the market
if not already then install busybox from the market *(open the busybox app and click install on lower left)
download the latest version of TrevE's wifi tether in the above link on the first post
open wifi tether, grant SU.....then turn on wifi tether as normal and it should be working.
edit: encryption now works with TrevE's 11-18 nightly found in above link
Thanks, I can confirm it's working on viper's test rom. I'm tethering my Transfomer Infinity, as I type this.
not works for me, says connection failed when trying to connect to the access point
worked on first try. thanks OP! "carriers hate tethering." lol
no go on encryption. changing the ssid works as well as access control.
Thanks for posting this. Works jellybomb no problems!
