What WiFi teather app?

Does anyone have a WiFi teather app confirmed to be working on or OGs? With or without root?

I am using pdanet tether and receive 1\2 the signal strength but still looking for a wifi hotspot app that will work.

i tried wifi tether for root users and set it to generic but it starts with the errors with "setting channel, setting essis, setting ad-hoc mode, activating wifi interface, and loading wifi driver" any ideas how to fix that?

Set it to generic ICS/JB WLAN0

Who is the maker of this app and do you need to root the phone to make it work?
Sent from my LG-LS970 using xda app-developers app

Yes you phone needs to be rooted foxfi doesn't work....
Sent from my LGOG!!!!! Boom.....

ok tried a couple different times with this app but
why is it I can not get speedtest.net to come up and all my web pages are pretty slow to load on my laptop
any further configuration settings needed for this WIFI tether app

No other settings that i know of. But I'm really starting to wonder about the radio on this phone. It just seems to have good and bad moments. With WiFi also.

Are you able to get to speedtest.net on the computer you WiFi into your phone with to see what difference is between the 2 tests
Sent from my LG-LS970 using xda app-developers app

At work, so no. Honestly, never been concerned with speeds. As long as it works im fine. Might be able to test later with my tablet tho.
Sent from my LG-LS970 using xda premium

Still think the radio in this thing is not that great. Reception fades more with this phone than the one it replaced. And that one sucked too.
Anyway, speedtest was all over. Anywhere from 300k to a best of 1900. Ran it probably 8 or 9 times.
Sent from my LG-LS970 using xda premium

If run the speed test app on the phone what do you get
Sent from my LG-LS970 using xda app-developers app

About 1300-1400k. Which is about right.

I normally get 13 megabytes per second to 22 megabytes per second down and around 10 megabytes per second up on my phone when I tether via bluetooth dun I get about 6 megabytes per second down and 2 megabytes per second up on my PC. After root in using wifi tether I am NOT able to get to speedtest.net to check on my PC

WIFI Tether for root users settings JB

This may be old news, but I got WiFi Tether for Root Users to work on our T989 running JB 4.2.1. Change the default device to "generic ics/jelly bean wlan01" and set the network settings to "auto". Set the channel to "xxxWlan01" and force the driver updates.

Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda premium

You set these parameters in the apps settings menu. As for not working on CM10...is that Jelly Bean 4.2.1? Or 4.1.2? I am guessing that may make a difference. Wait never mind you did say 10.1 nightly...therein may lie the kicker...being a nightly and all. I am posting some screenshots.

Possible fix for wifi tethering in cm10.1
How to have it working : Stop the Wifi, go on internet and look at your IP. In adb, do netcfg.
It will show you a line like that : vsnet0 UP 10.95.95.175/32 0x000010d1 00:00:00:
So, here, [vsnet0] is the [INTERFACE]. <----
Just after, do su -c "iptables -tnat -A natctrl_nat_POSTROUTING -s 192.168.0.0/16 -o [INTERFACE] -j MASQUERADE"
Oh, use Terminal Emulator.

Thanks for your helpful and informative participation.

I followed a thread posted by Agentfour20 on the galaxy s3 for tethering. I also got it working on the hercules by following all the directions, but i had to uncheck the "Send Netd Max Client Cmd" for the laptop to pickup the internet. I tried this mod on cm10 and cm10.1 and could not get it to work. I am running infamous 3.1 final now and everything works great. I would post a link to the thread but I don't think i can yet. Good luck, hope this helps. Here's the link, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2063043 This is a very easy setup method and it hides your IP

It works great, the only issue is the speed isn't 4g...

I did the $1.99 one month subscription to hot spot shield, and then it let me have full speed. I double checked with speedtest on the comp. Also with the subscription you don't get all the popup ads on your phone. You have to use the trevemods wifi app. Hits thanks if I helped

I have a quick question, though this might not be the place to ask. I just acquired this sweet little device and haven't had the opportunity to root yet so I'm stock. I have my s2 prepaid on the$70 monthly plan. I have this app called foxfi to use as my mobile hotspot. It works fine when I connect to my PC however after while the Web pages will pull up to t mobiles Web page saying some BS about paying for hotspot. Now on my account app its says that my data plan is null but my data works fine. Any thoughts?
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda app-developers app

I'm not sure about the prepaid plan, but with the method I'm using you have to be rooted. So far it's the only way around the upsell pages with full internet that I have found for our phones. No changing u.a. strings or anything like that.

Wifi tether who has it working what app

Sent from my LG-LS970 using xda app-developers app

Does anyone know if they have wifi tether what app are u using if so
Sent from my LG-LS970 using xda app-developers app

Long story short. Wireless tether for root works. BUT it'll kill WiFi. You can only use one or the other per reboot. Unless something has changed.
Edit. On ZVB anyway

WiFi Tether for Root, or Wireless? I have WiFi Tether for Root but it requires a slew of steps to work, I've read.
Haven't gotten it to work with the suggested settings, but haven't bothered spending the time to utilize a workaround.

Each device is different. You should look for support for the device in question rather than something completely different.
Try device profile = generic wlan(0)
Setup method = netmasterd
Reload wireless driver checked

Have you tried this clearing the cache from Pandora? - (Settings > Applications > Manage Applications > Pandora > Clear cache).

Yes, I have actually multiple times. But it never works. Would a proxy work.

Hmmm, I'm not sure. Have you tried downloading a previous version of Pandora? Maybe it updated and is conflicting now.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium

I've tried the latest doesn't work. And a version 1.7.1 neither work. But if I load it on 3g and switch over to WiFi. Then it will go for maybe 15 minutes and won't load up again.

Does Pandora work with other devices on same network? Maybe the port is blocked on the network? That's where I would start if it's at work especially

I have the same issue where I work. I was able to get Pandora running by using a proxy address under my WiFi settings. After the proxy and port info was entered, everything worked fine. Hope this info can help you.

Thanks. Now I know I'm not the only one. If you wouldn't mind telling me where you got the proxy address or website you got it from.

The proxy address was from the tech guys at the business I work for.

Use a WiFi tether app. WiFi tether for root from the Playstore, or the Trevor? version of it on xda. If you can't find them let me know and I'll get you the links a little later.
EDIT: Found some links. One has the TrevE WIFI tether that some people use.

This. WiFi tether seems to work well for most people. Be aware that after turning it on you will probably need to restart the phone for wifi to work again afterward.

It's common for our JB. Any stock ROM requires a reboot per WiFi or tether.

What settings are you using? Every time I have Wifi Driver Reload 2 selected, it won't tether properly. It looks fine on the phone, but the computer won't pick up the signal.

I've used PDAnet and haven't had any problems switching between hotspot and back. Hotspot works great and switching back is easy (no reboot). I use it all the time for my tablet when no WiFi is available. Just thought I'd mention it.
