Hi, has anyone had any success with doing a reverse tether on this device? Both directions of tethering are disable by my AT&T plan, even though I'm wanting to share my computers connection to my phone for use with Vridge.

So i have a Macbook Pro and i want to tether it to my phone via USB as to save battery vs Wifi Tether so I want to know is there any way to tether to My Computer with out running Bootcamp.
Android Phone Shows up under network connections but refuses to connect.
I also don't want to see anyone say use PDA net because it blocks HTTPS unless you buy it.
I'm Running Damage Control 3.5 Froyo.
Apparently Sprint made it so enabling hotspot or USB tether disables 4G and 3G.
You can use WiFi tethering and still plug your phone in and charge via USB. This will allow you to tether and charge at the same time. Other that PDA Net there is no other option.
I can get the wired usb tether to work fine but it seems to be slower. Using FoxFi but it seems to mess with my phone. I have NEVER gotten wifi tether to work, irregardless of my phone version or rom, so I was wondering what people have installed on both phone and comp that allows it to work. My wireless card enables ad-hoc so that doesn't seem to be the problem. I just want a simple wifi tether, not a hotspot because i don't want others to use it, that's what FoxFi is for when I have guests. I just want to get wifi tether to work to see if it works how I'm hoping it does. Any help is appreciated
Does your computer support Bluetooth? BLuetooth tethering sounds like it more like what you are looking for. I've honestly never heard of a "WiFi" tether outside of the hotspot usage.
I just bought the Note2 for Tmobile with unlimited data but I did not pay for the plan with tethering through the t-mobile hotspot because those plans limit the amount of high-speed data you get. The majority of my data is used directly from my phone but on rare occasions I would like the option to tether my laptop. Does anyone know of an app (or workaround) that works on the N2 that will allow you to WiFi tether?

This worked for me, except I had to use tethering widget-https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.achmyr.android.froyo& instead of wifi for root users
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?
Tmobile and Metro PCS don't block hotspot however they do slow you down once you reach your GB Limit, has anyone managed to get unlimited Wireless Tether?
I'm currently using PdaNet+ which hides tether usage but only to PC's connected through USB. I messed with the app called WiFi tether router but no luck \:
Any help would be appreciated, thanks!
