I rooted my Sprint Samsung s3 SPH-L710 with Odin3 and have superuser. Root validator shows everything green and shows I have root access. I installed WiFi Tether and it turns on but does not put out a signal. I tried all the different device profiles in the settings of the WiFi tether and still got nothing under any of them. Any suggests to get the WiFi working? Do I need to complete more steps? Thanks
Always helps to search.

I installed HTC EVO 3.70.651.1 ROM Root and now my WiFi teather is not working right. When I connect it to my laptop or iPod it shows up but when I go to browse it states it has no internet connection. Then When trying to reconnect to my home network. I cant even do that. I have to reset my router. How can I get my phone to teather correctly again?

Do you mean you applied the OTA update or you flashed a ROM running 3.70? If you accepted the update OTA then you're no longer rooted and WiFi Tether will no longer work.
I installed a rooted version of the ROM. not the stock one
try the latest WiFi tether from here.

if that don't work, you will have to install a custom kernel for it to work.
Hey thanks! That newer version seems to have done the trick.
Hi guys,
The first thing I did when I got my Nexus is root the phone and install the wireless tether for root users. It worked fine the first few times I ran it, but now whenever I hit start tether it starts up and mentions I should check the error log. At this point the tether has failed to broadcast a network even though the app thinks it's working, and everything is ok in the error log except these 3 steps:
Setting ad-hoc mode
Setting essid
Setting channel
These 3 flag as failed, I have tried other wifi tethering apps and get basically the same result where they won't start up or they start but fail to broadcast.
My wifi works fine, I can connect to networks via wifi without any issues, but I'm really stumped as to why the tethering has stopped working.
Anyone have any ideas? I'm running the stock ROM still as root while I wait for a good port of the forthcoming CM9, so if someone wants to suggest a stable, fully working ROM to flash in the meantime that's fine too
An update, I flashed a couple of different roms and this issue has now persisted accross all of them. Nobody has any experience with the same problem?
do you have the most recent version of wifi tether?

As far as I'm aware yes, it is also failing to work with other wifi tethers (have tried barnacle tether which does exactly the same thing)
I'm starting to think it might be hardware somehow, but other than this the wifi works fine for connecting to networks.
I just rooted my SGS3 with the Samsung GS3 toolkit and my WiFi will not turn on even if manually started. there was no additional modification other than install of busybox. Any and all support would be graciously appreciated.
I just got my Galaxy S2 SPH-D710. I rooted it with ODIN and the downloaded Rooted Stock Firmware. It is now 4.1.2.
I have been trying to get WiFi tether to work. I have tried the following with no luck;
1-Click WiFi tether
PDA net (FoxFi) - would get ip address from phone but no data connection to internet
and WiFi tether for root users - could not get a ip address from phone. Maybe I am using the wrong Device-Profile. (Itried a bunch of them)
What am I missing?
Thanks
Bill

I used WifiTether_TrevE_Mod_11_22_2012 as it was the latest build I could find. http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=9390195663897100312
Worked right out of box. No configuring needed. Now to do some testing with it.
Looking for a Wif Tether App.. I have checked out a few threads and havent found any. QBking77 has one on youtube but the link didnt work. Anyone know where i will be able to get one?

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.
