I recently got native USB and Wifi tethering working on my S3, and it works great on Windows 7 both ways. I have Ubuntu 12.04 desktop installed on my laptop on a separate partition. I've been booting to it and playing around just to try and learn it here and there. How would I go about getting my S3 connected to it to provide USB tethering for internet? Wifi tethering worked no problem, but I like USB tethering better.

Is there an easy and i mean EASY way to tether by USB my phone to a Linux (Ubuntu 10.04) box?
I am currently rubbing Ubuntu 10.04 in Virtual Box and would like to run it as my main OS. Only thing stopping me is USB Tether. Currently use Easy Tether on Windows 7. I want something that easy. Plug and away you go sort of thing.
Thanks in advance for suggestions/help.

It works fine without any screwing around or issues. I run Ubuntu 10.04 and it connects strait away when I select Share Internet Connection.
Yeah so I hear. I was using Ubuntu 8.04 but that does not do it automatically. Doesn't matter now as my motherboard has died. Sucks :-(
So quick set up of my situation
AMOLED DInc
CM7 Protekk build 12
Chad's 3/6/11 Kernel
.7.28 Radio
CWM 3.0.0.8
Windows 7 Professional
So this has been an issue since around official nightly #38
My laptop does not like to consistently hold wifi in certain campus building so I rely on my phone occasionally. However, I also don't always have the best service in these brick buildings. I have tried to use USB tether but to no avail. This is what happens:
Connect USB cable to Dinc
USB storage screen pops up, I tap home to go back to launcherpro
Go to settings
Wireless and Networks->USB and wifi hotspot
Tap to enable USB tethering
It will then flicker the status below the USB tethering option, then uncheck the box and I get the USB mass storage screen again. I used the HTC installer to install the RNDIS drivers.
Can anyone see an issue with my set up? I think Chad left in USB tethering but I could be wrong.
From what ive gathered it just doesnt work for windows 7. Download easy tether and that works fine.
I'm not sure this is related to Windows 7. If it is, correct me, but I don't think so. I've tried both 32 bit and 64 bit Windows 7.
I'm having the same issue. Wifi tether works fine, but I want USB tether so I don't kill my battery all the time. I have the same issues as original poster.
Yep having same problem and i have easy tether but it has a 300ms lag compared to wireless tethering that has 103ms and when i used to do wired tethering when i had xp it would be even better like 89ms and i would share it with my ps3 and it would be pretty good for online since i have sattalite internet here and thats usually 1700ms which is just terrible... yep. i want to get rid of 20ms to get the optimal online experience O.O, ive tried everything active sync(incompatible) htc sync, windows mobile center, none of those gave me the generic rndis driver >.< im about ready to just go get the alpha of Ubuntu and just do it on there.
not the 10.10 Ubuntu cause it doesn't support my graphics card (atleast not an open source version which is all i use.) sorry im off topic...
So any more ideas on how to get the drivers? My friend uses Ubuntu and the native rndis tethering is faster than easy tether when I use his.

man!!! i have the same issue the only usb tethering that actually work for me was the one with htc sence :/
I cannot get the USB Tethering native to CM7 (7.0.2.1 on Evo) to work with my Mac (10.6).
Does anyone know how to get them to play nice?
My Growl hardware notifier shows 'Android modem' as a new device ... but it does not appear in network prefs or anywhere else.
Thanks!
Download "wired tether" from the market. Can't say it'll work with your mac, but I can't get the built in (cm7) usb tethering to work either.
I am on my MacBookPro right now, using the WiFi tether built into CM7. When my battery gets low, I just plug it into the usb port to charge, but leave it on Wireless tether. Works like a charm. Now, if only I had 4G coverage.
The Sprint "tweaked" WiFi tether on Deck's AOSP ROM works fine on my GF's MacBook Pro.....
I have no problem with WiFi tethering ... just wanted to use USB.
But from the fairly extensive searching I've done, it seems to be impossible, because Mac doesn't support something called RNDIS (which the 'wired tether' app requires as well.)
Oh, well...
hi all,
i have the P605 running kitkat
when i connect my tablet to either my computer running windows 8.1 or my housemates computer running windows 7 and enable usb teather the computer adds Remote NDIS internet sharing device, the whole system slows down to a crawl.... and becomes very unresponsive until i disconnect the usb cable...... on my computer i cant even do anything....
any help? maybe a free app that can be used rather then the built in teathering?
thanks
USB tethering just stopped working on my device. I ave to use usb tethering on my laptop since wifi doesn't work on ubuntu on it. Tethering was working fine few weeks back i dont really know when it broke as i didn't use my laptop for a while.
Now when i try to do a usb tether i can enabl usb tether from device settings but ubuntu doesn't detect a wired connectiong. I thought its ubuntus problem so i reinstalled it, but tethering still didnt work.
I am on latest stock open beta(maybe that broke it). Also usb tethering works fine on my laptop using different device.
And wifi hotspot works fine on my OP 5t
Let me know if you guys have any clue of whats happening with my phone.
I have already tried

Hi,
I found today that that's the same for me. Usb tethering doesn't work anymore since 8.0.

Are you sure your drivers are installed and such? I don't use ubuntu (arch) so i have no idea how the situation is there
