Has anyone got WiFi Tether Router to work on the M9? It worked on my M8, but I'm having issued with it on the rooted M9. Or, any other wifi hotspot ideas?
I have an HTC M9 - and recently unlocked the bootloader, rooted and S-Off. (BTW im on Tmobile). After monkeying with the settings in settings.db and the build.prob doc, i got the normal tethering to work on my viper one rom.
I cannot for the life of me get wifi tether router working, and for the time bing have installed FoxFi.
My largest issue is no SSID displays for wifi tether router. It seems to boot but cannot see it on any other devices.
While my FoxFi installation gives me some unlimited tethering, it seems anything that comes across http is metered. While torrent tests do not get metered.
Hoping the wifi tether author fixes the application for the m9. Until then I'll have to live with some small metering on my device.
Hope this helps, if I find some setting combination that works I'll post, though nothing I have found so far works.

Well.
Rooted/Rom'd/Kernel'd my phone earlier today, went just fine (netarchy 421more beta, ava v10).
Only problem is when i wifi tether, the 3rd party apps won't work. Sprint's hotspot works fine but when i try to connect with barnacle/a couple others it connects, then about 10 seconds after connected i lose internet access, but the wireless signal is still being recieved. I fiddled with settings etc and no luck.
Sprint's stock app works fine, and 3g tether is my primary connection source as i live in the middle of nowhere (good for everything but fps games, 200ping not cool). My connection shows 3 {+/-1} bars most of the time, speeds top out at 200kb/s dl. If i use sprint's hotspot app in my rooted phone do i still have to pay 30$/m for the hotspot service?
i don't recall any outside links in my post. (edit, declares all (at) symbols outside links.)
edit; lack of responses. easier question; Does a rooted phone using sprint's hotspot app still have to pay 30$/mo for use of it?

ok, so your using barnacle to do you tethering. Unless sprint hotspot is unlocked with calkuins hack, then yes you will have to pay for the tethering using, i believe it wont work if havent already paid for the feature. I suggest checking back with the Original Poster's ROM thread. Try using wireless tethering! the best out there, try this link
http://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether/downloads/list
Note: all the PRE-releases are EXPERIMENTAL, and can cause Fcs (force close) so if you dont feel comfortable with a pre-release, dl a stable set, ex: 2.02 (something like that) give me back results if this works for you bro.
ava v10 came with the latest version of that, i don't understand why it isn't working correctly.
I can connect/recognize but as soon as i try to load a page it goes using that.
That'd be with 100% signal strength + connected and "no internet access"

ava 10....haha, ok. The sprint hotspot it hacked. Whatcha do is:
1)activate wireless tethering, and sprint hotspot should activate too.
2)connect to your wireless tethering, not the hotspot,then turn off wireless tethering, and your pc will lose the connection.
3)try turning wireless tethering back on, and connect as fast as possible. It should go through this time. Happens to me and a few others that run roms with calkuin's tether hack.
Report back with result.
if you need more help, you can contact me via Talk. (gmail account)

yeah... that didn't work either, do you know of a way to unlock sprint 3g hotspot/wifi tether without changing to his rom?
otherwise i'll just load his up as i don't really have another option...

For some reason, I notice that when I turn off my tether, it still shows as a connection that you can connect to. Those who are connected already, still have some internet (though, it's very slow). I have to restart the phone to get it to go away/save battery. Anyone else have this? Tried a few different tethers (except the built in one in the system) and they had the same result.
to be honest I believe the default one works the best its the most stable one I seen so far and it has infrastructure mode I only been able to test 3g so far but it states 4g is working fine as well.All you have to do is flash it in recovery.The link is for the hotspot hack

I have no T-Mobile tower reception at work, and was looking forward to the wifi calling capability to come to the rescue with this new phone/service. Unfortunately, my work wifi requires a proxy-serverort for browser connection, and once I update the wireless connection with these settings - I am able to browse fine.
Regardless of the wireless signal strength, the WiFi Calling status states : Poor WiFi signal, before timing out with REG99 error - unable to connect. I have also noticed on this phone and the HTC EVO 4G, that while on wifi at work, my download speeds (via speednet) are high (>10mbps), but nothing shows up in the upload section.
Given the above, and knowledgeable of the fact that my corporate network does shut down access to other ports - is there any workaround to enable wifi calling behind a proxied network? I have even tried to add a new APN to include the proxyort to no avail.
wifi calling from the home network works without any issues, and yes i am rooted.
TIA for any help.
Found the solution. Turns out that accessing the proxied wireless network was the root cause of the issue. We also have access to a guest network, that interestingly does not require a proxy connection to the outside world, and that works perfectly fine!
Still unanswered then, is what ports does this phone require that are being blocked by the proxy server?
I would also like to know the answer to this. I do not have access to another wifi server to test this. What is weird though is that my Sensation that I just got rid of had no issues with wifi calling on the same network, explain that!
Hello, I’m new to XDA Forum and thank you in advance for answering my basic question.
Verizon Gnex stock. Wi-Fi Hot Spot?
Prior to JB OTA update I installed PDAnet, FoxFi & FoxFi Addon. The Gnex is my only net access right now. After JB update I installed SwitchPro to get a WiFi Hot Spot. I assume it’s the native one “AndroidAP”. FoxFi is now works after developer fix for JB. So I have FoxFi and SwitchPro installed but things aren’t working correctly.
SwitchPro no longer launches the native Wi-Fi “AndroidAP” but launches the FoxFi hotspot instead. ? When I launch FoxFi I now get two Wi-Fi notifications on the bar. When LTE/3g searches/toggles the FoxFi active Wi-Fi Hotspot indicates "Off" but the Gnex settings Tethering & portable hotspot indicator shows FoxFi "active". ?
I like the SwitchPro switches but also use PDAnet for USB Tether. 4g LTE reception is spotty where I live. Bounces between 4g/3g a lot but getting better.
Would someone help me properly setup the wi-fi hotspot apps and switches?
Thanks much
Would someone care to help an old guy fix this minor issue?
Thank you.
I was under the impression that since then FoxFi app was fixed for jb, and there is the addon for it, switch pro was no longer needed?
I could be wrong as I do not tether so those apps serve me no purpose.

Ok i am having trouble with getting the right tethering app for this rom.I have been searching since the 26th for a tethering app that works right,I have used barnicle,easy tethering(works but not wireless),Wireless Tethering(Saids starting but also logs error)Im needing a wireless tethering app that will actually work like its suppose to because my phone is the only way i can use my internet and me and my wife normally use it on both of our laptops at the same time.Im not A verizon customer.I personally flashed my Dinc 2 to Cricket.I do have a tethering plan but since i flashed from 2.3.3 rom my wireless tethering doesnt work..Barnicle works sometimes but connection speed is 11mbs when stock tethering was running 54mbs...The app is really slow and then when me and my wife gets on from our laptops at the same time it acts like it kicks me or her off to run on just one laptop at a time...Can someone please help???Does anyone know how i can fix this or is there a app that im not finding that actually works like system 3g Hotspot???Thank yall
No network
I flashed this ROM last night and lost any network connection, not sure why, could connect over wifi, I'm hoping thee is a fix for the tethering because I use the phone for internet at work and use Barnacle, which has always worked flawlessly.
Barnacle works fine as far as I can tell. Using it now.
I'm using barnacle as well, but you only get ad-hoc mode. Has anyone had luck with wifi tether or opengarden or any of the other apps? I need to get on my work VPN, but it doesn't connect through ad-hoc, so barnacle is no good for that.
