Wi-Fi tether problem - T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII

Galaxy s3 stock rom rooted and debloated using titanium.
I've tried WiFi tether for root users, foxfi, and barnacle. I can see the ssid but won't connect to internet.
Using barnacle it gives the error "WIFI: Could not set ad-hoc mode of wlan0: Operation not supported on transport endpoint"
I've searched and came up with no luck. Any help would be great.

Are there any files in root explorer I should be looking at or need modified maybe?

Huh? There's the built in T-Mobile tether app that works perfectly already. Why bother with those 3rd party apps?

Because On Some T-moibile Plans TETHERING ISN'T FREE or tethering is not an option if youre on the unlimited plan.

Well that issue wasn't stated in the original question so my dumbfoundedness was actually founded. The question should have mentioned the reason was to skirt normal tethering detection by the carrier if that was the case.

Really? The only reason people have ever used those apps is to circumvent carrier tethering restrictions.

With WiFi tether for root users you need to press menu > settings
Then set device profile to galaxy s 3 (it's at the bottom of the list.)

Working wireless tether for root users?

Does anybody know what version of the Wireless Tether for root users works with the rooted stock ROM for the Inc2? Tried the latest 3.1 beta (3.1b6) but it doesn't work.
try this
http://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether/downloads/detail?name=wireless_tether_2_0_7.apk
Im using the 2.0.7 wireless tether and does not work on my dinc 2, im running tsm_gingerbangsense_2 this is the message. Cannot communicate with DNS server (#########) Network diagnostic pinged the remote host but did not receive a response.
In the network and sharing center i can see this (this computer-Android tether-----x-----)
works fantastic on inc2HD
I found that Open Garden app works just great.
Not being able to communicate with the dns server means your phone can't connect to the internet, so there is nothing to rebroadcast via wifi. are you within a good signal area for 3g, and does your data work in other apps?

Hi OP.
Enable mss clamping and routing fix in settings on the newest beta. You will be up and running in seconds.
I noticed that using power savers may disable tethering. Uninstall those as well.

I'm having the exact same problem. I've tried multiple tethering apps and none of them work and last time I tried using open garden it broke my 3G and I had to revert to a backup. I'm running MIUI 10.7.
This may be a dumb question, but can root users use the 3g hotspot found in wireless settings for free? Or do I need to download another app.

All depends on the ROM. If you're running the stock ROM but just rooted you'll need another app. Some ROM developers hack the built in app.
I use wireless teather 2.0.7 its from google and have no problems

[Q] Tethering with Bluetooth

I thought I figured out how to Tether using Bluetooth. I was interested in using this method -- primarily for my iPad 2 -- instead of rooting (which I already am) and using WiFi Tether - TrevE Mod which seems to work well.
I was able to connect my iPad 2 via Bluetooth and share my WiFi connection on my GN2. However, it doesn't seem to work when WiFi is off and I try to use 3G. I get this Error #67: Registration failure. Your data service username and/or password may be incorrect. Please try again (see attached). If I turn WiFi back on, it won't connect to the router -- until I turn off Bluetooth. The I can connect via 3G or WiFi again.
I'm wondering if this is happening because I don't have the WiFi Tethering package with Sprint?
yes the Sprint tethering package enables both forms of wireless tethering. use open garden for Bluetooth or just use the wifi in the ****pad

That Open Garden app is pretty cool. Unfortunately there isn't an iOS version for my iPad... Oh well, I can use it on my laptops.

Barnacle Wi-Fi tether

Hopefully someone can shed some light on this.
I used to use Barnacle on my old Photon, and had no issues with it. Now I'm running it on Lifeless ROM for our phones, and while it doesn't spit out any errors, it certainly isn't functioning the way it should.
Barnacle starts and runs perfectly, even shows " sharing your connection" with no errors at all, but still, no device is able to see or connect to the network. When searching for the Wi-Fi network on any other phone, laptop, etc, it's just not even there, like it doesn't exist.
If anyone is familiar with this app, or knows a way to get it functioning, I'd greatly appreciate any info.

how did you even get this on your phone? i just tried to download it and it says it isnt available on our carrier.
Look up WIFI Tether on google play, there will be one called "WiFi Tether for Root Users" made by "Müller, Lemons, Buxton"
I've been using it for a while no issues so far.

I've used this on my Optimus S Galaxy Nexus and Optimus G and they all work great. This is the best app for tethering. They even have older version to where a certain version works.

WiFi teether owns when you have 4g
yep just got wifi tether for root, barnacle didn't work, and this one i see actually supports WPA as opposed to being limited to WEP, which caused issues with my linux box connecting to it.
Hopefully this is fixed with WPA, we'll find out
WiFi Tether stopped working for me. It does what's described in the first post; runs fine, no errors, and says it's tethering. It worked for about a month and now nothing.

I took the advice and tried Wi-Fi tether from the market. Basically does exactly what barnacle did, with a slight change. Now, other devices will see and connect to the Wi-Fi network, but will still not get internet access. Almost like the data service was blocked.

The app posted supports only ad-hoc connections according to the description.
I haven't seen any android versions that supported ad-hoc connections by default. You've always needed to replace wpa_supplicant to make ad-hoc networks visible to android wifi devices. Note that you can broadcast ad-hoc without changes. You just won't see ad-hoc networks without changes.

i really dont get it, what's the point of tether apps like PDAnet+ or Foxfi?
The default built-in tethering functions (wifi hotspot, usb tethering, OR bluetooth) work fine and free. am i missing something here..?
I am guessing they meant they are running the sharing app on another device (since they mentioned tmobile). So the tmo phone is sharing the tmo connection and nexus 7 is using that shared connection to access the net.

O really? is it because tmobile detects the built-in tethering and does not want to allow it? Because i'm with Rogers (canada) and i've been using the built-in bluetooth tethering (JB 4.2.2) of my cellphone data plan to my Wifi tablet (galaxy tab 2) for a long time now and it works all the time.

I've been with Verizon for long time , I used to tether all the time , no extra charges. I think it became illegal to charge for WiFi hotspot .
I would check into it because you should be OK
