Share internet from computer to phone via USB

Hello
I am in need of a way to get internet to my phone through the USB-cable from the computer. Is there any way to do this? In either linux or windows... I will be without wireless internet for some time and I would like to try to avoid big data fees on my phone while staying at home...
A little edit to hopefully simplify what I'm looking for: Reverse tethering

Hey there,
Also I am looking for the same thing. It was one of very little good properties of my old win.mobile phones.

Y think the new HD roms have it, try and flash this rom, did not tried but the option appears in settings, i used this one:

[Q]Problem with usb connection on LeeDroid 2.2f

Hi guys,
I'm running on LeeDroid 2.2f. Everything works just fine but I have some problem with usb connection.
As I connected my desire with computer through usb, even when I choose charge only, the device will be connected as a disk; after I change to HTC sync, if I wanna sync somehing, the connection will be automatically changed back to usb disk, if I disable usb, the phone will hang there or be dead.
Recently I found that even if I charge it in car, the device will also think a usb connection has been established! So I cannot use anything that has something to do with SD card, e.g. navigation. That's really annoying...
Regardless of whether I enable usb debug, the problem remains.
Can somebody tell me how to deal with it?
Thanks a lot!
Charlie

First why make a new thread about this and not post in the Leedroid thread and second this shouldn't have to be posted anyways since it's been mentioned like every other day and has a page on the wiki.
It's Winamp or someting similar which causes the auto-mount.

Hi,
Well please don't be so harsh to the people who doesn't think it's a problem with LeeDroid and who doesn't know it's a problem with usb auto mount and searched for some other keywords.
But really thanks a lot coz it's actually related to Winamp. I disabled the auto mount, it's now working fantastically.
Cheers

Internet pass trough

Hi
My brother got a HTC sensation a few weeks ago.
Since WIFI is bad at our place our computer uses cables for internet. So my brother connected his HTC to the computer and got one of the next options popping up (after installing HTC sync on the pc):
*INTERNET PASS TROUGH
This means he uses the internet from the computer TO his phone. So he got internet on his HTC thanks to the computer.
This is not as easy with the galaxy nexus apparently. I used all possible options in the settings to try and make this work.
Isn't there an app or another way to enable this?
(don't tell me all those tethering stuff cuz i've already tried it and it doesn't do jack..) So this has NOTHING to do with WIFI. It's pure internetcables ,pc, usb cable and cellphone.
If you got a solution could u write step by step what I should do (and for others too) ? I'm kind of a newb
Thanks!

[Request Help] HTC Desire USB Tether Problem

Hi
I have a slight USB Tether Problem.. Well I have had this problem for a long time.. on many different version of ROMS.. but now am getting annoyed.. as Long as I had my WiFi Hotspot I was not really to bothered about USB Tethering.. but now my Wireless & Bluetooth have decided to die on me [AGAIN] so no more WiFi Hotspot..
Ok Firstly the Wireless & Bluetooth dying is not NEW to me.. although am not sure what causes it to die and then come back to life suddenly.. When I was in UK It decided to Die on me then when I came to India after a few months of staying in the grave it decided to somehow digg itself out... so I'm not going to even bother with that issue..
UNLESS SOMEONE KNOWS WHY IT HAPPENS AND KNOWS A SURE FIX FOR IT THEN I'D BE HAPPY TO HEAR IT OUT.

Anyways this topic is for my USB Tethering problem.. the problem is when I choose USB Tether.. it will do the connecting thing.. I mean on my Laptop I can see the adapter thing saying IDENTIFYING.. then as soon as it says ENABLED.. it will say DISABLED and the adapter will disappear.. I have to remove the USB cable then plug it back in.. exactly the same thing will happen.. after a few attempts IT WILL CONNECT.
I thought maybe something wrong with the wire.. so maybe that is why.. so just to test it out I downloaded PDANET and EASY TETHER (Desktop Client and the APP)
They instantly connect no problem at all ( tried it multiple times ).. how is it that these Apps are STABLE... but the USB Tethering on the Phone is so UNSTABLE -- I don't really want to pay $15 for something that i absolutely Do Not Need... since my phone supports USB Tethering so does my Network.. soo I don't see the point of buy these apps.. but it is annoying that i have to plug and replug multiple times to get the USB Tethering started.
Anybody have an Idea why it does that??
My Phone is a HTC Desire.
Currently I am running this ROM.. RUNNYCRUX RSK TEAM ★ with AMAZE CAM
Thanks for you help in advanced.. I hope your able to understand the problem If not do state your confusion I'll try to explain it better.

Well figured it out myself... I was messing around plugging unplugging and looking at the devices manager watching it show and then disappear.. then i noticed the name it says
HTC Remote NDIS based Device #2
hehe I kinda figured I knew what the problem was.. so thought of giving it a try.. since it says #2 it will mean I had a Ghost HTC Remote NDIS based Device, which was probably interfering.. so mm
START > RUN > cmd.exe
SET DEVMGR_SHOW_NONPRESENT_DEVICES=1
START DEVMGMT.MSC
Device Manager: View < Show Hidden

Looked I had
HTC Remote NDIS based Device
HTC Remote NDIS based Device #2
HTC Remote NDIS based Device #3
removed them all [Oh!! and Do not remove the driver when uninstalling or else you will be royally screwed ]
remove all the 7 My HTC things in Android USB Device thing as well.
plugged it back it installed the drivers now it's not troubling me it just starts pretty much instantly. YAY!!
Anyways... Still even though this problem is SOLVED.. if someone can solve my Wireless and Bluetooth out that would be awesome... those things are beyond my understanding.

Thanks alot, Rudurk.

Question Getting Android to Use Linux-USB Ethernet/RNDIS Gadget

Hello All,
I'm new to this forum, so I'm not really sure if this should be general, dev, or just a technical question. Also I'm a software dev, but am not too familiar with android other than lightly using Android Studio for app dev.
Basically my problem comes down to this. I use a custom OpenWrt device as an ethernet dongle for my laptops by loading the g_ether driver. I would like to do this for an android phone as well. Right now I'm trying the s20 and s22 (pretty sure whatever solution I come to will work for both); however, when I plug my dongle in, the phone will see the dongle with all the correct device descriptors and all that, but will not connect and attempt to get an IP.
My current guess is that the phone just doesn't have the right drivers on there (cdc_ether or cdc_subset), or that it is not loading them.
Thus far I've tried poking around with termux, but have not gotten too far. I was hoping this community may be able to help me figure out how to get the phone to use the dongle.
Lastly, would really rather not root the phone unless completely necessary.
Thank you all for any advice!
