Installed Synd.ROM Frozen(malanga) WiFi Tether is not working and crashes that phone?

Installed Syndicate ROM Frozen (Malanga) Full version, and when i turn on the WiFi tether(3.0 pre11) that comes with the ROM, it turns on automatically the Sprint Hotspot, then the phone crashes turns off and thenb back on, by itself
I get both App. running at the same, what do i have to do, to run the wifi tether only????????
thanks

In wifi tether go to settings and the first option is device profile. Make sure you have the right one selected. And yes, wifi tether does turn on the sprint hot spot app. That's how it works in infrastructure mode.

Wifi Tether

I'm rooted and whenever I install and try to run wifi tether it starts with errors. I've tried multiple versions and they all keep doing the same thing. Anyone have a fix or have any ideas?

I think it is broken till they fix the wifi problem with the current root method... Ill test a little see what I can do..

I was getting the same errors on my rooted Evo 4g as well though, had to use the hacked sprint hotspot in order to wirelessly tether.

hmm, which root method did you use?? i used the 1 by zedomax, and my wifi tether works perfectly, no issues... just installed, and accepted SU permissions...

The other one, can I try that riot method even though I'm already rooted?

yup, go ahead, its just a kernal... it takes about 30 seconds to complete, wifi tether should work afterwards

I started a thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1268090 because of this same issue. I'm assuming that is what led to the video on how to install the beta 6 version, but I'm still getting an error for wifi encryption, so for now i am turning on the access-control and not Having any more errors. I originally thought it was an compatibility issue with an app, but it looks to me it has more to do with the root method. lets give them time, it'll only get better.

Huh, guess I'm just failing tonight. I've tried every apk posted in the root thread and i can find. Can't get any tethering connections going. the only difference between me and the video is I don't have the hotspot message in my notification drop down. My root works fine and my laptop sees the ad hoc network (i change the name and the new network ssid comes up).
This is the first time I've ecer had problems with wifi tether on an android device

Update your super user and give it a try.

I'm starting with errors and the error is actually encryption. If I start without encryption I can tether just fine - Only when I start with encryption enabled does it kick out any issues.
Any ideas?

You might want to file a bug report with the project. I'm sure that we are missing something in the kernel but don't know what or how to find out....

Is anyone able to get 4G speeds while tethering? It seems to be really slow on a Windows 7 notebook I've tried with. Getting around 0.28 mbps down and 0.79 mbps up. Speedtest on the phone gets 10/1.5. I'm right by a tower. Haven't tried with my iMac which is located in an area with weak 4G coverage that cuts in and out.
3G is fine by the way when it's good. Getting 1.5/0.5 or faster.

any update
Im having the EXACT same problem. Im curious if you or anyone else has got this fixed yet?

Add me to the list of "doesn't work when I tether encrypted"
Also,
Can anyone download the Open Garden Wifi tether? I keep getting a "your carrier doesn't support this" BAH!

Add me also. The only reason I rooted was for the WiFi Tether.

Have yall try the latest version yet it looks. Like it full wifi now

If you are rooted you should install the hotspot mod. It is native sprint hotspot and is way better in my opinion.

Want working 4G WiFi tether for touchwiz JB? Here's how:

***Be sure to install SuperSu from the play store before following these steps so that this app will have proper root access***
1) Go here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=34037922
2) READ THREAD INFORMATION
3) Download:
WifiTether-TrevE_Mod_11_22_2012_driverReload2 (defaults to Wifi Driver Reload 2) - http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=9390208427046731813
4) Disable Sprint Connections manager through settings menu
*System settings /more settings /mobile networks*
5) If any previous versions of WiFi tether are installed, UNINSTALL
6) Install new modded .apk
7) Use the following settings:
- Generic ICS/JB (wlan0) for Device Profile
- Netd-Ndc (master) for Setup Method
- Check box for "Send Netd Max Client Cmd"
- Make Sure "WiFi-driver reload 2" is checked
- Check Keep Alive Connection
- Check "Routing fix"
8) Reboot!
That should do it for you.
Encryption settings work as well.
Let me know if this works for you

I haven't been able to get native 4g tethering to work since our ics days.. Something changed in jb and the wimax_service.jar file used from the og epic no longer works on our device (at least back in the day when I tried it). This I the best I've been able to do.

Disregard. Must be disabled. I used titanium backup to freeze it. I am having a separate 3g issue with FK23. At least my 4g tethering works though... Lol

You may have to restart after the initial setup for things to work. I had to do this the first time, but not when I re flashed and tried again.

It works, but definitely needs a reboot and encryption does not work. I uninstalled sprint connection optimizer with TB and that totally f'd me. Had to reflash...

I have encryption turned on right now. WPA2. Works perfectly. Also, the first time I simply froze Sprint Connection Manager. The 2nd time I just disabled it from within the app settings itself.

Works great for me when I follow the directions, thanks OP! Encryption is working for me also.

I was too busy to try this today but posted a link to your thread on Universe JB Rom thread. First user over there that tried it said it worked great. I froze Connection Optimizer with TB and now I'm glad I didn't uninstall it. Thanks again

Worked Great!!
I'm up and tethering again!!!!!
Thanks!!!!

I had this working for a bit, then had to reflash, and can't get it working again. Those of you that have it working, are you using superuser or supersu? One-click or the original tar leak?

ive tried three times to get this working i think the problem ive got is with the connection manager, can some one please explain how to disable it,i know this makes me sound stupid but an actual video would be cool too, any help would be appreciated, thank you8 i finallygot it working thank god jelly bean rocks and thanks for all the help, to disable connection manager i used tb 4,75 hopefully after i load apps it will work

I'm not on the leak anymore... But if I remember right...
Menu, settings, more (near the top under Wifi settings and such), connection manager, disable (uncheck box).
Again I only used fk23 for less than 24 hours so I don't remember the exact options.. Anyway, that would definitely be the reason why it's not working for you.

So I finally managed to get it working... I had to disable 4G or else my wifi devices would not see the SSID being broadcast by my phone. Once on 3G, my devices can now see the SSID broadcast and join the network. Interestingly enough, once the devices are successfully connected to the network, I can then enable 4G to use the additional bandwith.

That is a very odd scenario. Worked perfect for me..
Now that the devices can see your network and are connected to 4G can you turn the network off and on again and will they auto connect? Or do you need to revert to 3g every time? That would be a huge PITA

Yes, it seems I only have to connect while on 3G once, then I can freely start and stop the network on 4g.

LIFESAVER! I played with FK23 for about a day but couldn't deal with the lack of 4G hotspot. So I had gone back to FI27 with the hotspot mod 'til I could find something like this. Works like a charm! Actually, my up and down speeds have increased from the FI27 hack, oddly. Stable Jellybean with working 4g tethering? I'll take it!
FYI: I just selected the device model along with the rest of the settings provided in the OP and it worked fine.

[Q] how to get Wi-Fi tethering to work

Well I have read through the development thread of ktoonsez and task's kernel and rom and even used yes search in the thread and have come up with no answers. When I was on ICS I had no issue with Wi-Fi tethering but since I have moved to this rom I can create the hotspots however there is no internet connection. I found a couple posts in the thread using the search but they seem to be gone from the actual thread since after I click the link it's not on the page that pops up.
I am currently running both the ktoonsez & task rom and kernel (latest versions) on a bell I747m with MVLDLK4 modems on MTS . I don't have a tethering plan but when I was on ICS it didn't seem to matter. Can anyone help me out or point me in the right direction?

If you are talking about using the WIFI Tether app Jelly Bean essentially broke it. The devs are working on a fix. XDA member Treve has a mod that will get it to work though. His OP is posted in the Verizon forums but I can assure you it works on our AT&T phones. I used it last night. There is an issue worth noting that once you tether and untether your WIFI won't work again until you clear cache and reboot. It is a minor annoyance IMO but I threw it out there so no one freaks out.
If you are talking about straight stock tethering I haven't run into the issue myself. My stock tether/WIFI hotspot works flawlessly. After updating to 4.1.1 did you do a full data wipe? If not I would recommend it. I ran into all kinds of bugs after doing the Kies update. Battery drain, Google Now had a learning disability, etc.
Do a google search for Treve WIFI Tether mod for the link and give it a go. In the OP he says that secure tethering doesn't work. It does. Used it last night as a test.

Also if you have a rooted phone already download mobile odin. You can have the app reflash the stock .tar and inject everoot and SuperSU. That's what I generally do when a new OTA is released. Hasn't failed me yet. Any questions shoot me a PM.

Wifi Tether works. The old version stopped working for me after upgrading to JB, but I downloaded a different beta. You have to download the TrevE Mod, wifi_tether_v3_3-pre2.apk.
Also I had to change some settings.
Device profile is set to GS3.
Fallback tether is enabled.
Send Netd Max Client Cmd is enabled.
Both Wifi-driver reload options are enabled.
MSS clamping is enabled.
Routing fix is enabled.
This works for me. Sometimes no data will come through but restarting my phone fixes the problem. I'm rooted on stock JB.

That's the Sprint Connection Optimizer turning your wifi on all the time. Just disable it in settings (not sure exactly where in settings, but it's definitely there, I'd assume in "more" under wireless settings).

Thanks for the clarification, Rocker of Dragons. I've been running AOSP Roms for so long I've forgotten where all of the settings are in stock TW.
And just a quick question: I noticed in your sig that you used Mskip's Toolkit when rooting. Did you have the same issues with Wifi being borked when you rooted it using the toolkit? I've stopped recommending it because of the issues people have has with it. I currently recommend Skunk Ape's guide, since it's easy to follow and walks you through each step with pictures and everything.

You can remove it via Titanium Backup, if you think its as useless as I do

Ok thanks for your help.

If your on a TW rom I recommend freezing it and not removing. Removing it has caused issues because it is linked to other tw based apps within the system.
On my two cents I love it I pick up wifi hot spots everywhere and the phone just connects automatically once you have already set it up. I go to Target I'm connected, I go to grocery store I'm connected, I go to mall I'm connected, I go to bookstore I'm connected, I go to Home Depot I'm connected, I go to Bahamas Breeze I'm connected... Lol see the advantages to using it.
