I don't know if the latest root method for OTA 1.47.651.1 (---==={ROOT GUIDE}===--- | 1.47.651.1 ROOT method | has been tested for Wireless Tethering. I would imagine that it doesn't make a difference... root is root, and there isn't much of anything changing on the phone AFAIK...
I've searched the forums and can't seem to find an answer.... probably because this is so new...
When WiFi is off I try wireless tethering and get an error message: Unable to start tethering, please try again. I turn on WiFi and start wireless tethering I get the same error message and WiFi turns off. I've tried this with all of the various connection types: Charge Only, HTC Sync, Disk Drive, and Internet sharing. When I try to select internet sharing, I get the following message: "Error Code 67. Registrationg failure. Your PCS Vision username and/or password may be incorrect. Please try again."
I found This How-To-Guide, which references Toast's method...but I'm curious if there's a difference between that method and the one listed above for the latest OTA.
Thanks.
[EDIT]P.S. I can confirm that WiFi does work. I can connect to local WiFi networks when they are available.

Hi.. looks like you are trying to use the buid in stock (Sprint Hotspot) tethering app.. if this is the case it will not work.. you need to root your phone and once you load a rooted ROM (ex. Fresh 0.5.3 or any other one) use the wifi tether app already included in those ROMs.. sometimes you need to reinstall the wifi app . in that case uninstall the wifi tether app and go to this address on your phone and download the latest app for the Evo. http://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether/
hope this helps...
P.S. I attached the app from the address above to the post.. good luck
Ignore jade. He is shilling for fresh. Download the "Wireless Tether" app from the market. That will work.

I figured as much. I am not using the Sprint app. I've tried the first app listed in the android market, as well as one straight from Google that's 2.0.2. It's supposed to work for the Evo... I have the same problem with both apps.
Which connection type do I need to select on my phone?

jejeje.. I did mention any other ROM as well ....
Guess the op can ignore me if he likes but what's the point of rooting if you are not going to check out various other ROMs..
if all the OP is needing is wireless teather then he should have just gone the unrevoked route.

Not going to ignore you.... not completely. I just want tethering to work so I can test it and see if it's going to work for me. Then i'll mess with other ROMs. The stock Sprint one has too much crap in it... I hate nascar...
Pezu23
I do not know if this matters but are you using a rooted ROM ? I ask because the first time I ran thw wifi tether app it ask for super user access.. maybe you need a rooted ROM flashed on the phone before this app can work.. I have no reference point since I used the toast method to root my phone..
If you can follow toast method of rooting and unlocking the NAND.. you will still have a sprint base (rooted) ROM but this time you can delete the "Nascar app" and anything else you want..
The one in market is not the best one 2.05 pre 2 I think is the best it does infrastructure mode allowing almost any device to connect

If you tried everything, i dont see why you would not take 5 more minutes to load a new rom with wifi already in it.
I had the market version of tether installed and it works fine, but I downloaded the attached APK file (in my evo) and when I tried to open it says:
Open file error

you need to install an app like appinstaller from the market to install apps store in the SDcard..

I have the same problem. I am on stock rooted with rooted OTA's...
I did get it working with Fresh, but I was having other problems with Fresh 0.5.3 like the camera would sporadically go out. I guess I may have to reload fresh (which I really liked, by the way)
I rooted using the link in your first post then installed the newest DC rom and now the newest baked rom. Neither allows me to wifi tether (though no errors) as I dont see a network being created. Any ideas? Did I root wrong or screw up my radios?
Thanks!
cool.. ill try that..
Maybe I'm confused...
When I run adb shell I can gain root access. However, it appears as though HTC Sense (or any other launcher) is not running as root..or at least the programs launched within Sense (i.e. astro file manager, wireless tether) are NOT running as root. I can only create dirs in /sdcard with Astro File Manager...Guess I gotta figure out how to wipe and restart.
Not to complicate your current line of thought, but I don't think normal file managers can create new files in system. only programs that request su will pop up in the su app. But the wireless tether should.
I am running basically stock with the tether and it works. But there is something to be said about trying to start over
Did you guys also loose 4g signal..And i hardly have any 3g bars to tether with...Before rooting after OTA everything worked perfect....Is 3g and 4g giving yall issues?
I didn't update my apps for about 2 weeks since I was more or less in a permanent network trouble. When I now try to update my apps, it's always said, the downloas are about to start, but they never do...
I am running froyo 2.2 and app 2 sd - no idea what's wront here...
hope somebody could help me out!
thx
Very occasionally my downloads stall and to fix it I generally:
1. Cancel all downloads
2. Check that I'm logged into Talk
3. Start the downloads again
This usually fixes it for me.
Regards,
Dave
I also had this from time to time and usually after a reboot it worked, but this time it already persists a while and the updates are getting more n more.I also thought that I started too many at once. But also a single one won't start...
By talk you mean gtalk? Why is that?
Thx
Essentially (and rather simplistically!), for many services, the OS uses the GTalk protocol to communicate with the device.
Regards,
Dave
Didn't know that. How do I check? if I click in the freak icon after a second I'm back on the desktop with that icon. Does that mean I was logged in?
Me too...I'm having problems to update my applications and when I click on Google Talk the application makes me return to Home
Any problems with Google servers???
Thanks
GTalk is working fine for me, so I suggest posting a logcat for the period when you attempt to sign into GTalk.
Regards,
Dave
I assume a logcat is a certain type of logfile? How do I generate this?
thx
If you have ADB setup on your PC, you can simply connect your phone via USB and type ADB LOGCAT in a command window (you need to have USB Debugging switched on). If you don't have that, you can download an app (e.g. aLogCat).

Dave

Yes.
There's nothing to install on the phone, you just need to enable USB Debugging from the Development menu.

Right, i experienced exactly the same problem shortly after doing update to 2.2. I've read somewhere (if i find a link, i'll post it here) that update from 2.1 to 2.2 doesn't carry personal data and settings transfer very well.
Tryed restore to no luck.
My fix.
1.Format memory card first.
2. factory restore
3. format memory card again (in case it managed to back up my settings after 1st format and before restore)
4. factory restore (in case back up happend and it managed to restore my settings)
5. sign in to google ******@GOOGLEMAIL.com , even though my e-mail IS @gmail.com and it shows @gmail.com on the phone.
No problem since
Hope no 3 and 4 make sense to you.
Hope that helps.

As you can see i simplified procedure a lot.
still trying to figure with the ADB.
I am stuck with the USB drivers - can't find them in the download package as described
Finally, you need to install the USB drivers. Again, the instructions are present in the SDK guide as well, but here’s how you can do it. Please note that my device was a Samsung GT-i5700 Galaxy Lite, and since I had Samsung drivers already installed, this didn’t happen to me. The procedure I am describing here is theoretical and taken from the SDK manual.
The drivers for both x86 and x64 systems are present in the SDK, under <sdk>\usb_driver\x86 and <sdk>\usb_driver\x64, respectively.

I'm really in need for help - more and more apps are getting out of date and I can't update them! I just don't know where to find those mentioned USB drivers!

I appreciate your help - but I'd really loive to check within the logfiles what's exactely wrong, dause that could trace the root and help others instead of just starting all over.
I'm just surprised that there's little response out here...
Hi. My "Connect to PC" wouldnt work. As a result, i cannot mount to Disk Drive etc. Any idea what is going on? I cannot even open Connect to PC in Setting too. =(
Do you have the latest HTC Sync 3.0.5481 installed?
Could try different usb port, or
Uninstall / reboot pc / reinstall HTC Sync.
Edit: Don't forget Uninstall HTC driver if uninstalling HTC sync doesn't do it.

Hi UpInTheAir
Thanks for replying. How do I get that latest HTC Sync apk file?
It's not apk. It's software and driver you have to load on the pc. Google it. DL and install. Let me know how you get on. Make sure don't connect the phone to pc in disk drive mode until software and drivers fully installed. It will tell you during installation, or you may have to reboot pc first.

Hey guys. Thanks for all the replies. Erm.. I did actually installed HTC Sync in my PC already but unable to get the notification on whether to Charge Only or etc.
But now the problem has been resolved. Ok, let me explain what has happened.
I noticed that some or probably all of my Sense apps such as Music and Gallery are always going into a Force Close mode.(I have no idea why. Past few days it is running smoothly and no issues. But this issue suddenly arise)
All other market apps are still working well.
Because of Sense apps unable to function properly, I decided to reboot my device and see whether it works or not. After rebooting, the Sense apps work well back again. I've just tried to connect to PC and yes it does work again.
So i guess the issue here is not about HTC Sync but.. ROM issue? But seriously I do not think its the ROM problem that causes Force Closes on Sense apps. Probably is my device. =( Or maybe certain apps are not properly installed and hence causing "interruption" with those Sense apps.

If it happen a any more [the force closes].
Try booting to Recovery> Advance> Fix Permissions, or used Rom Manager> Fix Permissions.

When I connect it,all I see is the USB debugging icon. Any help please? I'd really hate mounting/unmounting all the time.

I've frozen some apps via TB but I'm sure those weren't the problems.
I've deleted Setup Wizard a while ago and my phone was working fine.
Yeah, I've been doing some heavy ROM cooking and reflashing and my USB problem was definitely caused by removing Setup Wizard and I think Crash Handler/Crash Reporter, something along those lines. I put them back, reflashed and it was fine.

Sorry, it's CrashMonitor and Setup Wizard. I think there's a link somewhere here in the forums for all the default APKs for just this kind of occasion, so you won't have to reflash.

Hi SpeedDroid developers,
I installed your rom on my Wildfire S and it is great: stable, fast, long battery life than others.
However, I can't connect my device with HTC Sync although ADB could work.
Please guide me if anyone have ideas.
