Hey guys. I have been using cyangen RC rom and I have a problem. I use.my phone to tether. When I plug it in I get USB and USB debugger and tether works fine built in froyo. If I disconnected however and replug my USB in I do not get USB nor USB debugger to show up even if I go into the menu and try to turn them on myself. Because of this for some weirs reason the built in tether wont work unless both of these are on which forces me to reboot my phone everytime. Wtf is going on?
So i have a Macbook Pro and i want to tether it to my phone via USB as to save battery vs Wifi Tether so I want to know is there any way to tether to My Computer with out running Bootcamp.
Android Phone Shows up under network connections but refuses to connect.
I also don't want to see anyone say use PDA net because it blocks HTTPS unless you buy it.
I'm Running Damage Control 3.5 Froyo.
Apparently Sprint made it so enabling hotspot or USB tether disables 4G and 3G.
You can use WiFi tethering and still plug your phone in and charge via USB. This will allow you to tether and charge at the same time. Other that PDA Net there is no other option.
Hey guys.. so just now I was using my desktop computer and my phones internet connection via usb tethering.. but now with tethering turned off, my computer won't see my phone. Can't see the SD card, or in adb either.. what am I doing wrong?

Reboot your computer and phone. That usually solves it for me.
Can I connect to a wireless point on my phone and the tether the connection to pc?
As if im using a wireless card for my computer?
Thanks in advance

You want to connect to a WLAN with your desire and tether the connection to the pc? Why, or am I wrong?
You can connect to your normal mobile internet (desire) and use the wireless hot spot (depends on the rom, but I only saw roms that are able to do that)
That can be done. Maybe he wants to tether his 3G connection to his PC. Either way, WiFi or 3G, it can be done. Why would one want to do something like that (WiFi2PC) is whole another ball game...
I don't have a wireless card in my pc, so I wonderd if I could use my desire as an alternative?
Thanks in advance

Yes this works as I used to use my phone as a wireless card.
Turn off 3g, connect to WiFi and then connection your phone to your pc. Im on windows 7 and it automatically worked.
There's the option to use usb tethering (in CM -> Options - Wireless & networks - Tethering & portable hotspot - USB tethering)
maybe this will help you
I can confirm that you can connect your Desire to a WiFi network and then tether to a PC via USB.
It saved my ass when I updated my netbook's BIOS and it decided to blacklist my WLAN card. :O
My pc's wireless internet connection cuts off when I connect my phone VIA usb , even if its just on charge . Then I have to disconnect my phone and restart the pc to get it working again .
How do I stop it ?
