Wifi hotspot and tethering app - Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have pageplus and I tried using foxfi for the free hotspot but couldn't get it to work I kept getting a dun error saying my phone hasn't been setup to use the dun. Is there any other app I could use?
I have a rooted r800x 2.3.2 stock kernel and locked bootloader

[Q] Tethering Application

Where can i find the wireless tethering application. I know there is a application by tmobile on G2 as well but i dont really want to pay $15 because i only need tether for like 1-2 hr in a month
Google 'google wifi tether' and you will find the latest version of said app to download.

Yes i am perm rooted and running desire z sense rom is the application working for you? it starts and say sharing data but when i connect any other device there is no internet
I have been using the ota tether and have not seen any changes in my bill, should probably check with a tmo rep for some solid evidence as to whether or not they are really planning to charge for such a service.

It has been noticed that the wifi tether app gets borked if using the updated baconbits for trackpad wake kernel. It worked when I was running the bbv0.3 kernel, but when I updated for trackpad wake, the app no longer works.

Wifi tether version?

I'm running cm7 and can't find a wifi tethering app that works for me. Im going to need a hotspot later, but I can't get barnacle or open garden to work...the both say they are running with errors. I'm not near a comp, so could someone maybe just link me to an apk? Thanks in advance.

Dude this should still work even thought you're on CM7: Wifi hotspot
Lemme know if that works..Cheers

Wifi tether not working, how to fix?

First of all I have a Galaxy s2 t989 with tmobile service.
I am on stock jellybean 4.1.2 and rooted.
Please show me how to fix wifi tether. I downloaded the app wifi tether for root users and its not working. Thank you!
When you say not working, you mean you cant connect other devices while tethering is on?

I didn't see anything as far as the hot-spot hack, I'm use to using treve mod wifi tether, the only thing I saw in your original thread was the upgrade and the wifi patch

Quick question are any of you trying the native hotspot (settings--->hotspot) because treve Mod doesn't work on 4.3
Sent from my SPH-L900 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
As already mentioned, TrevE wifi tether does not work on 4.3. In order to get native hot spot working you'll need to first flash the wifi fix via Odin on your pc only. You have to unzip the wifi fix zip file first then flash it using the pda button in odin. All this info is in LorJay's thread.
required for hot spot hack to work: rooted, deodexed, flash wifi fix using odin on pc, flash hotspot hack, success

[Q] couple questions

edit: i;ve tried 'wifi tether' and 'open garden' now. open garden seems to work, but my laptop doesn't find the network
Why are you using a WiFi tether app ? Does the built in WiFi ap not work ?

I was under the impression that the built in app would be the verizon version and i would have to pay for it

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
