Don't the CMs come with the Sprint hotspot already hacked and ready to use?

Try Barnacle Tether. It's free in the market.
From my experience, Wireless Tether only really works well with Sense roms and Barnacle only really works well with AOSP. I usually keep both just in case.
Also, if you want to, try uninstalling and re-installing Wireless Tether. This will force the program to re-config itself for use on that particular software. Could help, I don't know.

Okay thanks ill try that

You can use the native hotspot. if you use the wireless tether it says error, and you just need to reboot to fix it, don't use wireless tether; barnacle is okay though.

Just tried that (unloading Wireless tether and reverting to the 2.0.5 pre8 version and still get the following errors - all 'failed":
Activating WIFI interface
Setting ad hoc mode
setting essid
setting channel
I am using RC 7 (final)
the native app doesn't work either - didn't try barnacle yet
Thanks

Same thing happened to me a while ago

Did you reboot and try built in like roxxorz said? Wireless tether is not going to work at all.

I rebooted and the native ap now works
I also downloaded Barnacle and that works as well (with a mention on the upgrade notes about an EVO patch)
thanks

Gingersense Hotspot Option

Are you guys using something other than Barnacle for a hotspot app in your Incredible 2's? If so, what?

Wireless tether bro.

Use WiFi tether it gives you infrastruce same as hotspot

I'm actually using the #778 hack on the hotspot. Also have Wifi Tether as a backup.

Just curious because I use my phone as a hotspot frequently but I use Barnacle wifi tether. It sounds like it's the same thing you guys are using, only you're using the built in Verizon wifi tether app right?

Will it show up on my bill if I use a third party tethering app?

No. It should just count as data usage so if you have unlimited, you're good to go.

Oh I see; thank you. I removed the Barnacle one and installed the one you sent the link for that was called wifi tether.

Try "android-wifi-tether", version 3.1 beta 7. Go into settings and set device profile to the S2.
Worked fine for me this a.m.

So it appears to be working with android-wifi-tether however I permanently have the "Security policy restricts use of Internet Sharing" showing on my screen (when I activate the tether) until I reboot the phone, can anyone else on Juggs 5.0 confirm they have tethering manager in titanium backup or can they get Wifi Tethering to work without the feature added to their account?

Try the app barnacle wifi tether.

It is at the app store and called Foxfi.

What Tethering App Are You Using?

I’m trying to find the best app to tether my tablet. I’ve got an ASUS Transformer Prime and it’s WiFi only, no 3G/4G so I’m trying to find the best way to share my internets from my Samsung Galaxy SII. I found this great app called FoxFi but for some reason I can’t just turn my phone into a hotspot and use my Transformer to connect via WiFi. I have to use a companion app on my tablet called PdaNet Tablet and it connect via Bluetooth! I don’t understand how it works, but it is very cool. The only downside is I can only seem to browse the web with connection. If I try to use the mail app or even access the Google Play store, it won’t connect. The only thing it will let me do is surf the net. Long story short, there’s a ton of apps out there, and without wasting my money trying them all I was hoping I could get some feedback here from people who’ve used apps with better success. Any input is welcome, thanks!

Sprint hotspot on touchwiz, WIFI tether on AOSP.

FoxFi, but I am still using EL29
PdaNet "free version" will not let you go into secure sites, you need to pony up for that.

Wifi Tether or Barnacle Wifi tether. Bother work very well.Wifi tether shows up on our Market so thats the way to go! I will say if your tethering to a computer Get a older version of pda net 3.0 It is unrestricted. You can get the windows install file too. Google it. You charge phone while tethering.

Sprint HotSpot.

Some wifi devices can't see adhoc hotspots. Many tethering or hotspot apps can only go into that mode because of the phones limitations. The hotspot app that comes with the phone usually is infrastructure mode. Everything can connect to that. In simple terms, adhoc is like internet connection sharing from a computer. Infrastructure mode is like a wireless router. You could look if someone has a modified wpa supplicant file for the tablet if it can't see the phone. Then it will work. I had to do that to my old galaxy tab in order to connect to the net through the phone.

Yeah I went into settings in my E4GT, and there's a Bluetooth tether option that works great for my tablet. A little slow, but better than nothing. Thanks for the input everyone!

Which wifi tether app from the market are you guys talking about? I just got a galaxy tab 2 7.0 and want to tether it from my epic 4g touch. When i search the market, there are a couple of wifi tether apps but I don't know which one to use. I am not rooted by the way. I just want to tether 3g/4g when I'm at work on my break because I don't want to use company's wifi network.

Foxfi

I've used wifi tether and foxfi. Only difference is u have to pay for the full version of foxfi. But wifi tether doesn't work on some versions. Worked on fi27 but doesn't on fk23

I see a couple of "wifi tether" name in the app store but which one of those are you guys talking about? "wifi tether for root users" by muller? "wifi hotspot/wifi tether" by innodroapps? "wifi tether" by pontente mobile? Also, for foxfi full version, it says that i need the free version first but i can't find that in the google play store.

WiFi Tether version 3.2-beta2

I'm not rooted. Is there one where I don't have to root?
Also, if I do root, will my phone still be secured?

wondering if there is a better USB tether app for ICS,
The team that made the wife tether, had a USB tether that worked great for Ginger Bread, but was never ported to ICS :|
