Is there a wifi tether out that is working for the e4gt ?

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.

Anyone running the calukin (sp?) rom and can get their wifi tether to work? I've asked in the rom thread, but no reply.

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.

Anyone found a work around the wifi tether issue? Rooted phone stock ICS.
If you can use Bluetooth then FoxFi + PDANet Tablet works well between me and my tablet. Not sure if it works with a laptop.
Go into titanium backup, and either freeze or uninstall tethering provision.

I don't know if that was exactly the tethering file i uninstalled with TiB, but that one isn't listed for me.
Actually, if i did remove it then that's probably what lets me use the built in tethering (under wireless settings). No redirect page for me... hm...

Wait, what's issue you're having? Are you trying to get back free hotspot for turning your device into a hotspot, or you can't connect?

I froze device management and the tethering provision, works now for me.
Unsure if device management was needed.

I deleted the apk to the HotSpot, and now I have to go all around settings to activate it. Unfortunately, I don't remember the name of that APK, and either I'm blind, or none of them have an obvious name. If someone could point me to it, it would be awesome. I downloaded Mr. X's zipped rom, but can't find it there.
I could go to the market, and download one of those shortcut thingies, but I don't want those, I want the stock one.
Also, FYI, the only thing that has to be frozen/deleted is the Tethering Provision.

Thanks ejcortes, because this is what im looking for aswell.
Hi All,
I am having a slightly different issue. I'm rooted and have frozen the 'TetheringProvision 1.04.02.TM'.
When I was broadcasting, my computer wouldn't connect to the network. My workaround was to delete the connection in Windows Network Manager and reconnect.
My tethering icon is different than the above screenshots, I have a T-Mobile branded icon.
Now that I'm able to connect, I'm getting a message in my webbrowser to sign up for a tethering plan. I've tried a User-Agent switcher, but that didn't work... anyone have any suggestions?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This is the message:
Turn your Smartphone into a Mobile HotSpot!
Share your smartphone's high-speed internet connection with your laptop, iPad®, iPod®, or any other Wi-Fi enabled device.
it sounds like you did everything right that is weird. What browser do you use chrome? try a different browser first. Even though a different user string should have worked. Maybe they are catching on. Dont forget that all the carriers have people in here as well so they all know what we are doing.
Try using a phone or ipod to connect to your hotspot and see if that works.

I'm having similar issues with mobile hotspot. I have tried freezing and deleting Tether provisioning, device management, and a number of other stock services. However no matter what, the T-Mobile icon always appears when I enable hotspot or wifi tethering and I'm limitted to the stupid WEP access with generated keys.
Anyone have a functional workaround for enabling the ICS hotspot service? currently i'm using FoxFi, but would rather have the real deal
I deleted the tethering provisioning directly from system/app and mine is working fine both the usb tethering n hotspot tethering. I used root explorer to do so

ROM manage has a tethering app. Seems to work fine.
I am running rooted stock ICS and could not get tethering to work by freezing tethering manager. Then I installed the WIFI Tether app (the one made by the Titanium Backup people) and was able to tether via that app. That worked for about an hour and now I am getting the TMO upsell screen even when I try to tether through the WIFI Tether app. Any ideas?
You should freeze/uninstalling TETHERING PROVISION.

Hi,
I'm running Vicious V3, and am having issues with wifi tethering. Everything seems fine when I turn on hotspot and my PC will attempt to connect, but as soon as my PC obtains an IP address, 4G/3G drops out on my phone. If i turn off hotspot, my data connection returns with no issues.
Anyone else see this?
Thanks
same problem here...
I'm having same problem. Well, not exactly the same but still. My stock hotspot has never worked in ICS Roms either. I was using wifi tether app and it was working like a charm. But since I got the jelly bean, none of the wi fi tethering apps work. I guess I'm waiting on the update of the app itself.
I've tried Vicious 1 JB, and V5 as well. same problem.
Wifi tethering works fine for me on CM9, so it at least works in ICS ROMs afaik. I've been planning on flashing mROM stock JB soon so I'll have to try that out. Maybe I'll try Vicious as well to see if I have the same issue.
Thanks for replying. Yes like I said. It used to work great in ICS Roms but not in Jelly Bean. Please let me know what to do!!!

Works fine for me now on all JB ROMs I've tried. The tethering apps dont work on JB, but the native wifi tether does. If you dl MoreQuicklyPanel from the play store, you can toggle hotspot from the notification window. I dont have the wifi tether plan from Verizon, and AFAIK using the native hotspot in JB doesnt get back to verizon for charges.
Thanks for the reply. I lost you when you mentioned
"If you dl MoreQuicklyPanel from the play store, you can toggle hotspot from the notification window. I dont have the wifi tether plan from Verizon, and AFAIK..."
What should I try to do from Play Store???
When I tried to use the natives wifi tethering, it connects to the other devices but there is no data bytes being exchanged. It's almost like you're connected to the internet but the web sites do not load up.

i had no problem for the 2+ years i was tethering and using it as my home internet. then one day a few months ago, i got the same message from tmobile. point is, it only takes one time. it has nothing to do with jelly bean or ics, or gingerbread. now i pay $15 a month to tether and use it as my home internet.
Alright, thanks. I hope that is not the case.
Does anyone else have any other experience after switching to jelly bean? Anyone replicate this problem or have an app that works?

Also, I have tried wireless tethering, which is based on same open source software.
It says it started tethering with errors and to check the log, which then says that the log doesn't exist and it can't open it. Same error with opengarden tethering.

my epic 4G has a wifi tether app ( the yallow one ) anyway when i use it to connect my Google Nexus 7" tablet before i update to 4.1.1 it works but after i updated to the latest jelly bean my nexus wont even find the signal anymore,
BTW i tried SVTP WiFi Hotspot and USB Tether - Lite it works but is it safe or does the carrier detect that , thanks
I am on Verizon, and I had a lot of issues when I first moved to jb on 4.1. Originally I used wireless tether app, as I used it on every other version I had. It would not work. I even tried using barnacle from the party site, and same thing.
I finally switched to 4.1.1, and just used the built in tether, and it has been working fine for about 3 weeks now. I never got a message about being to call tech support, but then again this is Verizon and I am not sure who your provider is.
It might be like someone said above about them knowing you are using it, and you need to call to set it up. If that is the case, that sucks.

Yup seems like jb broke the app, I can tether with the native app but on Sprint that knocks you off wimax and only leaves you with 3g. I can confirm its a jb thing because its working fine on my wife's evo that is still on 2.3 also worked fine on ICS. Like others it seems to start up fine but my tabblet won't pick it up.
something clever goes here...
After alot of hit and misses I finally got internet access using pdanet, foxfi, and enabling bluetooth network access. It's not the best but it was wiresless and free.

Same thing unable to tether since jellybean update to my Xoom.
Only connects via home wifi networks
Yesterday i recieved the notification that 4.1.2 was ready for install on my stock yakju galaxy nexus. After the install i noticed i could no longer tether (that same day i had tethered my xoom over wifi pre update). Today i tried to tether with wifi, usb, and bluetooth and not one of them will work. I've reset the computers/tablets, i've reset the phone, and i'm 100% stock with no root.
Has anyone else experienced a similar issue? my googling has turned up with nil.
I'm debating doing a factory reset, but would prefer not to if anyone has some suggestions i can try. Does anyone have a suggestion?

I had the same problem. However, FoxFi just updated their app to work with 4.1.2. I also got the FoxFi addon. Not sure if the add makes the difference or not.

hSo it's not working with stock but it works with foxfi?
edit: Strike that, just tried foxfi, no dice. I also tried a factory reset... no dice. i'm going to try a full flash of takju.
edit2: double strike that, just tried the full flash and nothing
Tethering works fine for me on 4.1.2, i just used it and it was as good as always

i'm curious, what frequencies does your provider use? mine is 850/1900 HSPA. i think. My theory is that it's only broken for some frequencies, which could be valueable debug info for the google people
My carrier uses 850/1900 3G bands. My issue is my tablet sees the connection and connects but the wifi icon never goes blue so it never gets internet.

I have solved the problem using "ISWAT tether unlocker" on google play
Open the app, click on the button "Unlock tethering", wait for the video completion, ad the tethering magically works, try it and let me know
