Well since wifi tether does not work with this build. I was just curious if the one built into cyanogenmod is free just like the wifi tether app in the market?

OK, first of all....what ROM are you using right now? CM7 or a different one because it sounds like you're talking like we're right there with you dude! The WiFi tethering in CM7 works flawlessly and YES is build in so is FREE! The only thing is that you can't use the one in the market prior to trying to use the build in one because it will break the build in one and that will open up a can of worms!
For future questions or anything, try to explain things a bit in detail and include what rom you're currently on....if you're talking about a kernel include that as well! Don't always assume that we're mind readers or anything.......Oh and NO I'm not catching an attitude, I just like to use exclamation points...lol
I'm currently using the 1.2m version of kushdeck's Gingerbread-Evo-Deck ROM.
My question is, where is the Calendar, News, Calculator, Weather, and Home Clock Widgets at?
Did I install something wrong, or were those removed as part of helping the battery life or cutting down unneeded apps by the developer?
And another quick question, whenever there's an update for kushdeck's ROM, do I just install the ROM as I did the first time, or is there an update path, and would I have to reset my phone to factory settings, delete cache, etc. before installing?
Another question, since my phone is rooted, how do I allow my phone to act as a hotspot? Is there a certain ROM or App I need, or is there already a built-in function I'm overlooking?
Your help is much appreciated!

Since it isn't a "sense" rom, and a aosp rom, you wont have the regular clock, Calender, etc Widgets. You will have to find alternatives from the market.
And to update to the newest version, as of now with it being 1.2x all you have to do is wipe dalvik/cache. Now if he puts out a update like 2.0 then a full wipe will be recommended. And lastly, for the hotspots feature, get wifi tether for free from the market

Ah, much appreciated.
I wonder if "sense" ROM's would be recommended over AOSP, but I kind of like how it's empty.
Just miss those lovely widgets! :/
Thanks for the info, I'll be sure to check out market for wifi tethering.

There's no 3G/4G Tethering?

Preference really of sense or aosp I stayed on sense for a while, tried cm7, now decks, and I don't think ill go back anytime soon. And if you really miss the sense clock, try beautiful Widgets in the market, you can theme and skin it to look almost exactly like the sense clock. And yes for 3/4g the wifi works with both, just flip on 4g and hit the start tethering button. I'm mobile right now but look in the general section for "wifi tether and aosp roms" if you can't get it to work and it has directions on how to get it working

Beautiful Widgets is nice, but idk if it's really worth the $$$ since it doesn't have Calendar or Calculator too... But I may try it out, thanks!
I'm curious, there's no ROM's that provide individual Sense Widgets?
I installed the "Wireless Tether for Root Users" by Muller, Lemons, Buxton, and it says, "This application requires a 'rooted'-device and a (custom-) kernel which supports netfilter (iptables)!"
Question is, do I already have this "custom kernel" when I rooted my phone, or where can I get it from and how do I install?
Wifi tether is already built into decks roms. Settings>wireless&networks>portable hotspots>wireless tether. That should get you going.
Thanks is always good

I use fancy widget pro and it feels and almost looks like a sense based clock with weather. It has like 5 customized sizes and presets. I generally use fancy widget home its the the full clock with the weather similar to sense.
This widget will also work with both gingerbread and sense so no need to worry if you convert back and like the widget.
I have search quite a bit today and cannot seem to find a resolution to my issue. The built in wireless tethering in any of the current AOSP roms doesn't work well for me. It doesn't allow changing the channel, it doesn't allow access control, it doesn't allow me to see what systems are connected, it doesn't allow me to see how much data has been used and what the through-put currently is, etc, etc, etc.
The android-wifi-tethering app has all of that and under a sense rom works great for me. I have searched and found other people that have had these same issues and the answer is always "Use the built in tether app, its great!" or anyone who actually gives an answer (IE different wifi drivers) has let their links die.
Is there anyone that has gotten the android wifi tethering to work on a GB AOSP rom? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I never got built in tether to work on AOSP roms. I usually have to use barnacle. Sense roms = no problem. I need tether to work, its a must for me and a deal breaker for these AOSP roms Id like to use
Works fine for me on salvagemod and cm7.1

I believe the issue is with a missing file on SD card. There was a thread where teh roxxor explained it n got it working, but you will have to search for it. Can't link it now

This is correct. Make a folder on your sdcard named android.tether, then place the attached file in the folder, and then uninstall/reinstall wireless tether. It's no longer available in the market, so I attached an apk of that as well. I would have linked, but I can't find it at the moment.
Edit: You have to rename the file, just delete the .zip, because you can't upload a bin file for some reason.

well to start off you may click on the link in my sig to see all aosp roms/kernels and their download links. second if you have an aosp rom and you used a wifi-tether app, than you just broke your wifi tether in the app and in the rom, just delete the app and reflash your rom/kernel. i have used decks gb rom, ICS(Mod7) and i am running the latest cm7 nightly #256 atm and my wifi tether works great. if you are interested in updating your radios there is a link to it through the thread in my sig. if you do check out the link in my sig feel free to ask questions or give comments in the thread. hope i helped ^_^
Hey guys, just registered on XDA, been lurking for some time playing around with various mods for the Nexus and GS3. This question is however related to the NFC capabilities of MROM by mmontuori found here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2172271&nocache=1
If anyone is using it is the menu option just hidden like the developer options were or is this functionality that has just not been implemented yet? I would like to use Google Wallet as I did previously on CM10. I have flashed GWallet and installed the APK on to my GS3 but have not yet been able to use it since installing MROM as there is no option to enable NFC under system wireless settings.
Any insight would be greatly appreciated, cheers!
Bumping for great justice because the ROM author is not responsive.
I want to give my Galaxy Nexus (Verizon) to my youngest son as a wifi only gaming device. I don't want him to have browser or direct Internet access. I basically want restricted user mode like there is on the tablet versions of Android. I have been trying for 2 days to find a way to make that happen. I have multi user setup but the second profile never loads. Has anyone else done this and had success? I am running Cyanogen 11 but I just want anything that will work this way. I have tried Parental control apps but none of them work as well as the restricted profile on tablets either. I don't care what rom I need to run to make this work.
Vanir rom has multi user support like tablets. Should work
