Can somebody tell me whether the native USB tethering works on any of the custom roms yet or do I need to rely on something like EasyTether? I've tried searching, but can't find anything specifically stating one way or the other on the Sprint Note 2.
we already have Wifi tether which is free... if you adamantly want usb tether the only way I know it's with apps like the one you mentioned

Iv'e been told Orange have disabled tether on the HTC Desire. I'm new to this, can anyone tell me how I can re-activate this facility?
Cheers
You could try barnacle from market, if you can't get native tethering to work. Barnacle allows for wifi tethering

Thanx..I'll check it out
Root and install custom rom. That's the way to go.
I'm on orange as well and nothing worked for me, none of the apps allowed tethering. It's something in oranges rom that prevents tethering.

Check out the sprint hotspot hack. Sorry for no link. Think it might be in the themes/app section

The previous 2 posts handle all of your needs. Hotspot hack is only for 3g right now Wifi Tether works great for 4g needs

wifi tether
Any of these work in non-adhoc mode? Trying to get my HP Touchpad (cyangenmod) to work with it.

STOCK E4GT with root... when I try to load any version of Wifi Tether it makes my wifi radio not work again at ALL until I uninstall wifi tether AND run another app that utilizes the wifi radio like the kies app after a restart. This is consistent after 4 different version attempts. I do NOT want to try to the deodexed hotspot hack until the LOS fix is official, because I do not want to run anything but stock until then. Anyone in my boat that has figured out how to make it all play nicely?

Let me see if I have what you said right. Without any tether app installed, just the sprint hotspot, the hotspot works. But then if you install wireless or wifi tether it makes the sprint hotspot not work?
I had the same issue. Until I did the same.

...not entirely. I mean the wifi could not connect to an access point until I ran the kies app. Did not try the stock tether app, because I don't want to pay for a service that I may use a couple times a year.
Also, seeing your sig you may be the person to help me. What is the best speed controller/motor combo for an old school RC10T that I want to get going again in a big way? Reverse stopped working a while ago and I am pretty sure the motor is shot as well. Been seeing some people clock ridiculous speeds with some of the new repower kits out there.
Never have been an electric guy, always nitro. But the brushless stuff is where its at and running lipo batts. Castle creations is one of the best companies out along with teken. Pricey stuff but they are well worth it. If you want more shoot me a pm.

My gf is on 3uk but not allowed to tether, are there any workarounds so she doesn't have to pay the stupid price they want to be able to tether?

I set my GNEX as a wireless access point for my work laptop as the office broadband connection is quite poor. Although I have the all-you-can-eat data plan, tethering isn't post of the package.
I haven't seen any charges for using my phone as a WAP (so far).
I assume they mean Bluetooth or USB tethering to use the phone as a modem.

Depends on how your carrier chooses to detect tethering, but most root tether apps should work without detection.
Options being:
1) Root and custom ROM, use built-in ICS tethering options
2) Root and install one of many WiFi tether apps
3) Don't root, use something like ClockworkMod Tether and tether over USB.
I should also ask, did she buy the phone from 3uk or unlocked? If the latter, have you tried just using the built-in tethering options in ICS?
The phone is from 3uk, even if your using the phones browser it sometimes comes up saying contract does not allow tethering and won't let u use the browser
That's the main annoyance
I'll root it when i get chance and see if that helps

I'am 3 and have used my phone to tether and have never seen that message or any extra charges. I believe as long as you use it sensible you shouldnt see any additional charges.
I'm on Three and have used my Nexus as a USB modem although I'm only using the £3 unlimited data thing. Used USB for over a gig of data without issue.
I then tried setting my phone as a wireless hotspot and instantly I got the 'modem use is not part of your contract' webpage.
Maybe it's a coincidence, but try using the stock USB modem option in ICS.
Same here. On All You Can Eat...and been tethering for 14 months. Not a peep out of 3uk.
Probs just jinxed myself there. Lol
I get what your saying but the message comes up using just the phones browser, nothing being tethered
Not requesting desktop site or anything
I might root the thing and put aokp on and see if that helps

did you press on the browser request desktop website? That could trigger "bots" on 3 servers to think that you were using phone and all of the sudden swapped for pc

Just rooted my S3. It has stock Jelly Bean installed.
Only reason I rooted is because every now and then I have need to tether.
In the past, on other phones, I've used the Wifi Tether for Root Users app and loved it. However, when I run the app, non of my PCs see the network at all. The phone looks like it's working but the laptops don't see any network.
I saw a bunch of people post about the similar thing on their google code page.
Is there a fix for this or a different program I need to use? Any help would be great.
Thanks!

Hello,
I have rooted my phone and wanted to know if anyone has been able to activate free tethering on the t989? I installed the treve mod wifi tether app but nothing seems to work...

you might want to use one of the modified ROMs such as Jedi Mind Trick JB 1.1 or Infamous's . I dont think free tethering in stock ROM will work.

I tried the generic steps for tethering but I do not have the MSS Clamping option on the one that I downloaded on that page?

The stock roms generally want permission from the carrier to enable tethering. The custom ROMS generally have it enabled by default. One of the tricksy things T-Mobile is doing now though is checking the User-Agent of the browser requesting a page and, if it's not a mobile browser (i.e. you're wi-fi tethering a laptop and using a desktop browser), it redirect you to the "Buy Tethering" page. There are extension for Chrome and Firefox to change your User-Agent.
Non-web traffic seems to be completely unaffected by the new tethering test.
