Does Defy support WiFi tethering?

If not is there an app that will enable it?
Thanks
not officially since atm it is running 2.1 but you can wifi teather if you root your phone then install and ap such as barnicle wi fi teather works well for me
Installed Barnicle and it appears to be running but niether my Vista laptop or my Win7 netbook see it.
I bought mine from Germany, and it too had the "3G mobile hotspot"-app. I´ve tried it, but can´t make it work properly. Not that I put that much effort into it...
The USB-tethering is working just fine though, I´m using it right now.

My Defy from Austria has given me no trouble using wifi tethering.
Though WPA2 encryption didn't work for some reason, it worked flawlessly with WEP.
Is there any chance you can upload it here?

Downloaded and tried to install but for some reason it won't. It is the 3G mobile hotspot app though. Guess it's only for European Defys.
Edit: After further research I found an app called Wireless Tether 2.0.5. Works great. There is supposed to be a newer version(2.0.6) but I can't find it on the market.
Edit2: Nevermind I found it. If intrested it's can be had here: http://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether/downloads/list

James:
Thank you for posting that link! I am new to Android and "rooting" cell phones. after rooting my Defy I was spinning my wheels finding a teather program that worked. That program is awesome!!!!!
Thanks again. I now have the perfect phone - beach resistant, work resistant, email, apps and it now has tethering. Now i get to use my iPhone and Blackberry Bold for door stops!
I've been using the stock wifi tethering app since got the phone - works sweet for me

There is no stock wifi tethering app for the US T-Mobile Defy.
Tethering via motorola's 3g mobile hotspot application works fine, same for the usb tethering (without any changes, rooting etc.).
But one thing I found was that the data traffic via tethering is not counted. It neither shows up in the internal traffic counter nor in applications like 3G watchdog. I couldn't really figure out any reason for this! Anyone else a clue?
Happy to report that the 3G Mobile Hotspot app comes standard with the T-Mobile 2.2.1 ROM and works great.
Where can I get this ROM.

Just confirming what JamesDax mentioned. Android-Wifi-Tether 2.0.6 works well with my Defy (rooted stock ROM) and Windows 7 laptop as a client so far without issue. I had skipped over it until his post because I could find no evidence of the Defy having 'netfilter' support as required by the application. Based on JamesDax's postI figured I would give it a shot. (Thanks James!). Note: the only encryption it offers is WEP 64 which is very weak. App is worthy of a donation.
I also tried Barnacle Wifi Tether previously and it would behave as if it were working but the SSID could not be detected by any client I tried. I tested various settings in an attempt to get it working to no avail. I do believe it's something to do with it's interaction with the Defy as it seems to work on various other devices properly from reading reviews and discussions on the app.

Anyone test this build-in 3G Hotspot application with GRPS?
Barnacle working mighty fine here (jboogie's Froyo Beta 2).

Worked fine for me over GPRS, WCDMA and HSDPA. Of course it's slow on GPRS. I think it depends on your provider / signal /data plan whether this is a viable option for you.
Just tried the app that was previosly posted and it works great connected really fast to my laptop

[Q] Evervolv-Acies-1.0.1b3-supersonic- WiFi Tether Doesnt Work

I've flashed Evervolv-Acies-1.0.1b3-supersonic to my EVO but can't get the WiFi tether app to work. When i "start tether" i get the error "tether started with errors". I dont know if the rom isnt compatible or the kernel.. any suggestions/ fixes?
Does your built in hotspot work? Tethering has been very shotty with gingerbread, it works for a few people, but I'd recommend using the built in hotspot, or trying using the older like 2.5 version of the tether if you can find it.

No, its hacked, and once you root your phone you can use it for free, so you'll be fine.

[Q] 4.4.2 once rooted possible to tether on old plan? don't have 2.5gb tether plan

Hello everyone and excuse me for noob question. I got my note 3 few days ago already with 4.4.2. I will try to root using updated files for build uvucnb4. I'm curious if it will be possible to tether if I follow the buying wifi tether router video. I currently don't have the 2.5gb wifi tether option as I'm on a grandfathered plan that doesn't include this feature for my note 3. Do have unlimited Internet though. Haven't done anything yet as I'm still unclear on this. Really want to root just for this feature alone. Want to be able to tether my kids tablet and pc at home. Thanks and sorry I tried searching every where.

Thanks for quick response! Sorry but when you say tether to laptop via USB cable, I have the option to tether either way? Now how would I tether with the USB cable, is there an option for either wifi or USB cable? Sorry for dumb question very dumb when it comes to this. Thanks again
Yes it does work. I have the same grand fathered plan and using native tether on wicked rom. On stock kk you change the apn as listed on this forum. Delete or freeze tethering provision and use a play store widget to activate tether. It will force close settings once or twice when activates but will work on 3rd time.

Awesome thanks mike!! Seems like it's working very well. So for noobs as myself download kitkat build uvucnb4 root files. Flash via odin, download titanium backup, freeze tether provision, download wifi tether router from play store, make new apn as stated on the tutorial, and should work at least for me so far... now just wondering will tmobile be able to find out when I'm using my cup like downloading software to it or updating it or even just surfing the web?? Thanks for the help guys!!
I rooted my note 3 and using the wifi tether router from play store for hotspot. However, that is a paid software, but it's simple to use. got about 20mbps when on LTE.

[Q] Any MODs to remove tethering cap ?

Just wondering if there are any MODs that remove the tethering limit that T-Mobile gives ?
on my Nexus 5, i was able to tether over 25-30GB a month without a problem.
now im back to my 5GB limit ..
Thanks .
Im not bashing you I say to each his own but this is why they made tethering caps to begin with.

Some rules are just made to be broken, if I stream Netflix all month long , what's the difference if I buy a mini HDMI cable and connect to my TV ,.. than to simply tether. ?
Thanks jp

I wonder if the same flashable zip I used on the nexus 5 would work on other devices ?
Don't wanna end up with a bricked device.
No it will not work tether. They changed. It on lg g3
Most of the MODs don't work on the G3, so far, at least none that I have seen/tried so far. It has to do with the way the G3 uses the APN and IPv6 (IPv4 works, but LTE is spotty and it also breaks tether, from what I've read), ThePagel can explain is far better than I, if he so wishes.
The best way to get it to is via the app "Wifi Tehther App", which works perfectly and masks your tether use as mobile data use and not as hotspot use.

I can vouch for the wifi tether app. I've been using it relentlessly and I've had zero issues.

Since rooting, I have been unable to use the native Hotpot or any of the tethering apps which requires root. Has anyone found a solution for tethering?

on my m8 running viper....I just changed a value in the default.xml file (there was a few versions that forgot to enable the native hotspot for free)....that did the trick....I don't see why it would be terribly different on the m9 if you are S-Off, unlocked and rooted.
You stock or running Viper?

I'm pretty sure the issue here was over debloating... .. the stock tether guard doesn't like being frozen or removed before it's disabled in the xml policy. To be honest.. even after disabling tether guard support I always leave the app remain.
We will know more when the OP gets back home from his trip.
Stock rooted here and it works fine.
Not having root, I still haven't found a way to use the built in hotspot--however--if you disable tethering guard,you will be able to use the built in Bluetooth tether. The major downsides being only being able to connect to one device at a time and download speed is right around 1 mbps.

Yeah, I was googling for a while...
So I tried Foxfi and it didn't work, said it was unable to use wifi tether on new updated system (something like that). But then I looked at other apps to try in the Play Store and saw "Free Tether Unlocker". It only had a 3.5 star rating but I figured why not try it. IT WORKED!!! Was still able to send a text and make a call too.
So anyone on a Verizon device who needs to get wifi tether working, just use Free Tether Unlocker and then Wifi Tether Router and that should do it!
