Wifi tether will not work with stock/Sprint rooted 4.2.1 - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

I've tried all the tether apps I could find. Is there a reason why this will not work with my phone? It has worked in the past... I did just get a new phone because my other cracked, so I haven't ran stock in a while. My phone is rooted.

[Q] Wifi Tether Problems

Hi all. I've looked for weeks through hundreds of threads for a solution to my problem but haven't found a solution. My apologies if one exists.
I am running an odin-rooted EL29 stock rom. I have downloaded various versions of the Wifi Tether app but am running 3.1-beta11 right now. I can get my Win7 Pro laptop to see my phone's wifi but cannot successfully connect to the internet with it. The wifi icon in the system tray continues searching after I tell it to connect.
I've followed the many tutorials on how to do this but none of them work. Does anyone here have any solutions for me to try? Please, of course!
Okay, so I just noticed the sticky at the top of the list about Wifi and others for EL29. All of these fixes look like brand new ROMs, though. I would rather not wipe everything and start clean if I don't have to.
I too had many problems with WiFi and WiFi tether. I actually went to the WiFi Tether home page and dl'd every version there. I paintakingly install each until I found the only one that worked was version 2.0.7. Only problem with this version is that encryption doesn't work.
Also, and I presume you are with Sprint, keep in mind that most of the newer ROMS have the Sprint HotSpot app working fully including encryption and for free.
I tether all my wifi machines to either WiFi Wireless Tether or Sprints HotSpot.
Good luck,

IF Ive helped, HIT the Thanks button.....
Have you tried going into the settings and under change setup method change it from Auto to WEXT(adhoc)
I was having a similar issue and that seemed to work for me.

I don't think Beta 11 works. That was my experience. Beta 6 & 7 worked then I figured I should upgrade to the latest and tried 11 and it didn't work. Saw a few other people who also had problems with 11 and went back to either 6 or 7. I know for sure 6 & 7 work on Stock but haven't tested any other ROMs.
The Calkulin 2.8.1 Rom can be flashed without wiping your settings and data. Just wipe cache and Dalvic cache and flash the Rom. Make a Nandroid backup first of course. I have flashed this Rom over stock several times with no issues at all. The Rom has the Hotspot hack which lets you use the Sprint Hotspot software which works perfectly and Sprint has no idea that you are using it.
This is what worked for me on a stock rom, Odin rooted + CWM.

Stock 4.3 w/ Root: Working Wifi Tether?

Has anyone gotten wifi tethering to work in the stock 4.3 ROM. I'm using the Deodex version that was recently posted but I can't get wifi to work. The Sprint wifi that worked previously in the Rooted Stock ROM (4.1 I think) worked fine but now it asks for a SIM Card. I tried to download the latest version of Wifi Tether but it doesn't look like that is working either (starts with errors and nothing connects)
Does anyone know the right settings to use for Wifi Tether to get it to work or what the latest wifi/hotspot option is?

Help with WiFi Tether on Note 2

HELP! I have tried manny methods and fixes, but for some reason I cannot get my WiFi Tether to work!
The log shows, everything has passed, and it should be started. I do see the Download and Upload meters at the bottom, however it will not broadcast an SSID for my devices to see!!
I have tried manny settings on it, but in the past the ones that worked were
Generic ICS/JB (wlan1)
Netd(master)
WiFi Reload 2
But so far nothing is working. I have downgraded SuperSU, Downgraded the wifi app itself, tried diffrent versions nothing seems to work!!
Hell even the native tether on the ROM itself is bugging out. First time It connected, but the data would start freaing out, closing connects etc when a device was trying to use it. Now as soon as the tether enables it dissables itself. There is another wifi tether mod that came with the app, but I refuse to pay $15 for more than 5 min of ussage per day. I think that is just dumb.
This is what I have
Sprint Note 2 L900
Carbon Mod JB v1.6
Android 4.2.2
I really dont want to flash a diffrent rom. This is the FIRST one I have actually got it to work this far past a stock rom. For some reason every 4.4 ROM I tried, the modem does not work. I tried new modem drivers but still nothing. All other JB Rom's I have tried 4.1 - 4.3 each have diffrent issues for some reason. So I need to stick to this if at all cost. If you guys can reccomend a very good stable rom I might try it but I need WiFi on my devices! Help ! THanks

Changed from a stock rom I can not get wifi tether to work
Hello, I need some help please. I have just installed the slim bean rom on my samsung s3 from sprint. I have used wifi tether for years prior to this i only had one problem prior to when i changed phones. But i managed to get it working. But now i can not get it to work. I have went to the newest version to the 2.1, I can get to where it loads with no errors but it does not broadcast, I have tried installing different scripts, to see if it will work in the background but still no luck. I have read all the android websites with issues and i have tried every setting that has worked for others and i still can not get it to work. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

WiFi Tether Router for lollipop?

Hi, I looked before posting and couldn't find and post about the APP WiFi tether router workaround for lollipop, I did everything I can to make it work with lollipop and nothing, so I had to downgrade to kitkat and now is working fine. I'm not using any costume rom, just rooted my phone. Any ideas or a rom that can make WiFi tether router work perfectly fine? Thanks
I am using it on a rooted fob6 stock rom just fine, at least a gig daily for my tablet. Did you use the settings they suggest?
Yes and none work, what settings you used?
I was using WiFi tether router on rooted kit kat without issues. I upgraded to stock lollipop and root. I can confirm that there was an issue I had where the router app drained my hotspot data from my plan after i flashed srock lollipop. I did find the solution. the developer suggested that we are to uninstall the tether app. reboot. reinstall. that solved it on my end.
