Wi-Fi tether for root. In the play store.

Idk why but WiFi tether for rooted users isn't working for me. Other devices can't pick up the signal. It doesn't even show up. I'm rooted and everything. I tried all the different settings.
Generic ICS/JB wlan0 is the one most of us are using.

Mine hasn't worked for a while either so I gave up. It used to work fine right when I unlocked and rooted, but then after a few weeks it stopped working as you described. I've uninstalled, installed, tried all the settings, wiped cache and dalvic, basically everything short of completely wiping the phone and starting over.

Thank you SO much for this. I was having the same problems as everyone else, I changed profile and BAM!!, instantly showed up on my tablet.
For unrooted phones I believe the clockworkmod tether works

I did see that one and it would work for my laptop, but I really want something to hook up my tablet with.
Just bought LG OG, rooted it with v9. Can't get wifi tethering to work. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Tried the Generic ICS/JB (wlan0) and it was a no go. Not unlocked though.

Try flashing a new kernel.
Don't work... wipe/re-flash.
What all should I wipe when I flashed I wiped user/factory reset, system,boot, dalvik, and Android secure. Anything I shouldn't have wiped?

You should be good, would be ideal to do each about 3 times.
So, I would just re-flash a kernel.
Oh, and (the built-in) WiFi tether does not work with 4G (or if it is not unlocked).

I've used it less than a dozen times in the past 2 years for a total of less than 30 minutes. Mostly to send email when my email server would not allow access from an unsecure free wifi hotspot. I have seen others brag about using it in place of home internet. Some even brag about using it for gigabytes of bandwidth monthly.

Precursor: I have tried multiple roms both ICS and JB.
Ever since I rooted GB27 after doing all the OTA after getting my referb I can't turn 4G on. The status goes from Unknown to Enabling back to Unknown. I have 3G just fine, can connect to Wifi just fine, just can't enable 4G. Any ideas? I've tried a couple different things I've found here but so far nothing is working. My next step is reflashing my ROM with no external SD card in.

Have you tried flashing different modems? If you are running GB27, then you have to run a jb modem. But you can't flash modems through mobile Odin, has to be done through pc or cwm.

The modem is separate from 4G. have seen something like this before and it was a hardware issue... Another instance was because of a virus protection app that was installed on the users device.

Hello,
Wife is wanting to get me a Sprint Galaxy S3.
My current phone is rooted Sprint Epic 4G Touch running Calkulin ROM. Charging port does not work, but I have spare batteries and a wall charger to charge them. I was curious to know if the S3 can be rooted, wifi hotspot works with the Android OS itself or via a third party apk, and if a custom ROM can be flashed on it.

The Hotspot Mod is HERE. If you want a Rom that is very close to Stock, you can check out The People's Rom. Or if you prefer a Rom that can either look Stock, very Themed, or anything in between, check out MOAR.
Thank you again. Is the process for installing the hotspot mod the same as installing a ROM?
nevermind. i think i got it.

Just wipe Cache, and Flash .

TEAM MiK
MikROMs Since 3/13/11
Had some scary moments this morning at 7:30am. Phone started to be unresponsive and widgets would replicate themselves on the home screen. I cleared the davlik cache. Reboot the phone and experienced the same behavior. I also flashed the rooted Android OS zip file. Same behavior. I ended up doing a factory/data reset and phone was back to normal. Verified that device still had root and the Hotspot mod appears to still be part of the Android OS. I will verify that later on. Not sure what happened as the phone was working fine up until this morning. any ideas?
I think I have figured what was causing the strange behaviour. I used Titanium Backup to freeze what i thought was the stock voicemail program, since I use Google Voice. I unfroze it and froze the correct one. I will do a backup in Clockwork Recovery just to be safe.
But data/ internet seems to work. Stays in data roaming most of the time. Was on swamp monster and stock. Sprint couldn't fix it either. All of a sudden it started doing this. I also have a second note2 with SwampMonster and that phone works great. Also have a s3 on wicked sensations that works great as well.
Any ideas?

Best advice would be to find one of the signal checker apps in the play store and see what signal strength you're getting. If it's weak you know the problem is with Sprint. If it's strong then you would need to look deeper into your phone/ROM/firmware etc.
