USB tethering just stopped working on my device. I ave to use usb tethering on my laptop since wifi doesn't work on ubuntu on it. Tethering was working fine few weeks back i dont really know when it broke as i didn't use my laptop for a while.
Now when i try to do a usb tether i can enabl usb tether from device settings but ubuntu doesn't detect a wired connectiong. I thought its ubuntus problem so i reinstalled it, but tethering still didnt work.
I am on latest stock open beta(maybe that broke it). Also usb tethering works fine on my laptop using different device.
And wifi hotspot works fine on my OP 5t
Let me know if you guys have any clue of whats happening with my phone.
I have already tried

Are you sure your drivers are installed and such? I don't use ubuntu (arch) so i have no idea how the situation is there

I have tried various Android releases for Kaiser and have been unable to get tethering to work with any of them. I have tried both Barnacle (Wifi), Android Wifi-Tether (Wifi and BT), and the native Android USB tethering (via Settings) with no luck. I haven't tried PDANet because it appears to require software be installed on the PC, which I'd prefer to avoid. Has anyone else had luck getting tethering to work in Android on a Kaiser? If so, please share details. This is the only feature I really miss from Windows Mobile, but it is a big one.
Hi, I have azilink (USB) working but haven't used it extensively. It does requires OpenVPN to be installed on the computer side but they are both free.
Would love to see Wifi tether working though Not sure why it doesn't work. Last I looked into it seemed to be some problem with sudo and root permission.
UPDATE: I can tether with the built in Froyo tether function on a macbook pro. Which means the problem is with Windows 7!
EDIT: I realize that my wording may be confusing. well ive tried PDANet and that works, so i can only assume other third party ones will also work.
My problem is that Froyo has this built in, but i cannot get THAT to work.
Ive tried using OpenDesire (many, many different revisions) and Oxygen. Both by AdamG, but i doubt it makes a difference.
I go into the wireless setting and enable USB tehtering. I disconnect my wireless, plug it into my computer, and get no IP so i cannot browse anything.

Am i missing a step
2 different carries too. Ive tried Rogers and ive tried Telus. No change.
When I was using oxygen I just plugged it in, enabled usb tethering and I got connection.

So whta could it be?
hardware problem?
Radio issue?
Am i just doing it wrong?
EDIT: I just plugged it into my desktop, and it didnt work. They're both running windows 7 if it matters..
EDIT2: the programs for tethering in 2.1 and below worked for me when i was on 2.1..
EDIT3: Im posting this while using PDANet...
Alright the problem is with windows 7. My friend used his MBP to tether wirelessly to my phone. No issues

Not sure if it helps but have you tried installing HTC Sync? I remember vaguely that it is needed for USB tethering for windows.
So quick set up of my situation
AMOLED DInc
CM7 Protekk build 12
Chad's 3/6/11 Kernel
.7.28 Radio
CWM 3.0.0.8
Windows 7 Professional
So this has been an issue since around official nightly #38
My laptop does not like to consistently hold wifi in certain campus building so I rely on my phone occasionally. However, I also don't always have the best service in these brick buildings. I have tried to use USB tether but to no avail. This is what happens:
Connect USB cable to Dinc
USB storage screen pops up, I tap home to go back to launcherpro
Go to settings
Wireless and Networks->USB and wifi hotspot
Tap to enable USB tethering
It will then flicker the status below the USB tethering option, then uncheck the box and I get the USB mass storage screen again. I used the HTC installer to install the RNDIS drivers.
Can anyone see an issue with my set up? I think Chad left in USB tethering but I could be wrong.
From what ive gathered it just doesnt work for windows 7. Download easy tether and that works fine.
I'm not sure this is related to Windows 7. If it is, correct me, but I don't think so. I've tried both 32 bit and 64 bit Windows 7.
I'm having the same issue. Wifi tether works fine, but I want USB tether so I don't kill my battery all the time. I have the same issues as original poster.
Yep having same problem and i have easy tether but it has a 300ms lag compared to wireless tethering that has 103ms and when i used to do wired tethering when i had xp it would be even better like 89ms and i would share it with my ps3 and it would be pretty good for online since i have sattalite internet here and thats usually 1700ms which is just terrible... yep. i want to get rid of 20ms to get the optimal online experience O.O, ive tried everything active sync(incompatible) htc sync, windows mobile center, none of those gave me the generic rndis driver >.< im about ready to just go get the alpha of Ubuntu and just do it on there.
not the 10.10 Ubuntu cause it doesn't support my graphics card (atleast not an open source version which is all i use.) sorry im off topic...
So any more ideas on how to get the drivers? My friend uses Ubuntu and the native rndis tethering is faster than easy tether when I use his.

You need to have the proper drivers installed on your computer for it to work. If you're on Windows, download HTC Sync and it will give you the proper drivers. If you're on OSX, you'll have to follow one of the several guides out there to trick your system into doing a USB net connection.
I'm personally on OSX and its just too annoying. I just set up a WPA secured wireless network and set it right next to my laptop. Plenty fast and no hassle with a cable.
Alright hoping someone can help me out here. I had a note 3 and s5 before and used them to usb tether on my work laptop. Company shut down wifi all together so wifi tethering is out of the question. So the laptop will install the samsung drivers and it allows me to usb tether. I have also tried with a droid maxx and it would tether as well. Well I got the G3 (verizon) and it will not allow the modem driver to install on the laptop so that I can use tethering. So does anyone know a way I can fix this? Such as change the way the g3 usb tethers? Make it act like a samsung phone or motorola? Installing the drivers is out of the question because you have to have administrative rights to do that
anyone?
