I rooted my phone and since I'm like everyone else and don't want to pay 30 a month for wifi tethering, I downloaded 2 apps that do that: Barnacle's and the other wifi tethering app. Neither of them work, anyone have any ideas how to get this accomplished? I figured that since we have root now and there are netfilters in the kernel that we shouldn't have a problem.
I can't get Wifi Tethering for Root Users to work either

Try different versoins of wifi tether. I know on the hero side 1.6 was the only one that worked
to clarify, this is with android 2.1 using the userdebug RUU, not stock 2.1 or froyo 2.2, right?
now that you have ADB access, when you open one of the apk files to test it, can you monitor logcat and paste the results/errors it throws back here for us.
those of us w/o an EVO yet, less than 24 hrs, can try our best to help troubleshoot and give recommendations. hopefully it won't be too difficult!

just throwing out ideas to help speed up the process, not sure how much detail will help them?
might want to include version number of the userdebug rooted RUU we're using and/or radio version?
Joey, give me a few minutes to figure this out and then I'll post the logcat.

When I said that Wireless Tether for Root Users didn't work for me, I was on the Froyo custom ROM with root.

It shouldn't be working on the rooted stock 2.1 either. If you get it working, please let us know how you did it!

as far as I have read, when you test this in normal android mode you need root access.
you'll have root access in normal android mode if you flash flipz's STOCK ROM with root from the custom recovery.
wait does it work for the Stock Rooted Evo Rom posted in the forum? just the standard sense ui rom with superuser ?

With the [Kernel]netarchy-toastmod, updated for 2.2 - Version 3.7.6c
And wireless tether 2.0.5 pre 6 however the download speeds are very sporadic so it takes a few min to load each web page. Does anyone know what else we can do to the kernel to get this fully working or do we just have to wait for source?
This is the most i got, may be with the kernel source we wil get more!

You should probably list what ROM you are running, and maybe change the title because wifi tether doesn't work with all 2.2 ROMs, and Netarchy's kernel doesn't work on all 2.2 Roms either. People who are may want more info than you are offering.

Nevermind my questions- I got it to work!!! searched computer for "tether" and it pulled multiple files from my copied sd card titianium backups- found tether 2.05 pre 4 and it worked. thanks for the leads.
I've been waiting on flashing 2.2 until Wireless Tether works.
So fresh3.0.1 and netarchy 3.7.6c kernal seem to be working? How are the download speeds? Is anything else broken when you flash the kernal? I heard that the camera might not work after the kernal flash.

Been running it since last night on fresh 3.1.0.0 and everything's working except google goggles.Camera will only show that its taking pictures in 3mp after you flash the kernel but as long as you have your camera set to 8mp before you flash,it will still capture in 8mp.
So I have searched but haven't found an answer. I suck at searching probably. Any AOSP rom I can connect to my wireless N hotspot fine which is a Linksys E1000 running DD-wrt, but with any sense rom, even the latest OTA, it's a no go, just constantly fails. Am I missing something?

The Superuser.apk and su binary which most ROMs use doesn't work on the 4.22 OTA; you will get force-closes if a second, third, fourth, etc. app requests root permissions. I talked to ChainsDD, and he gave me an updated version of Superuser.apk and su which have this bug fixed.

wait a few weeks and we'll have a fully working ROM (hopefully), but for now it's just best to leave it unless you want to test it and post results on the spreadsheet they have, saying what you're using, what works/ doesn't etc.. if you have that much spare time on your hands lol

Could not connect to 3g even once since 0.3.1 update. Sandvold is working on the issue (see irc...)
I tried using barnicle and it gives me an error "wifi:could not set ad hoc mode of wlan0 operation not supported on transport endpoint" all other apps say its working but it's not seen on any wifi enabled device. Is it because jelly beam doesn't support such apps? Can I use the phones built in wifi hotspot if that is the case and will I be forced to add on the wifi hotspot plan? Thanks Happy New Year.

Ok, gotcha. I thought it was albinoman's because you just said jellybean 4.1.2. The actual ROM you are using is good to know. You only listed the Android version earlier in the post.
It sounds like Barnacle won't work.
No worries. Provisioning for tethering doesn't exist in CyanogenMod. SPG.apk is the provisioning app and also the tethering isn't linked in the device configuration so it won't charge you. My understanding with the provisioning is that it is never automatic. I think it takes you to their sign in page on ROMs without that removed which is only stock on the Inc.
I'm new at this but do you have a rom? I see "tiny4579" listed in my phone. I believe I'm currently using ponsAsinorem. Thanks for your help !

In short, you won't be billed for tethering on this ROM. Verizon won't know you're doing it as that hook doesn't exist in this ROM.
If tethering isnt linked to the device how does it still function unless im misinterpreting what "linked" means. Thanks !
And under about phone under cm version 10-20121120-pons-inc is cm10? And pons is the rom? Thanks so much !!

CM10 is the ROM and ROM version. CM10 is based off Android 4.1.2. Pons built the ROM.
And your other question, when you enable wifi hotspot on this device, other devices will see it as the default SSID of AndroidAP which can be changed if you want. By default it has a password so you need to change it or set it to open which can be a security risk.
Thanks for all your help !! I really appreciate it ! Happy new year
Oh btw to my other question of seeing tiny4579 in my phone ? You made a version of the rom? Thanks !

I'm keeping his build up to date yes.
Where in the phone are you looking when you say you're seeing my username in your phone? The about screen wouldn't show two ROMs.
In goomanager under browsing compatible roms along with aokp, invisiblek, miui, ponsAsinorem. That's where I go to change roms I believe.
Oh, yeah, that would have my build. It would be cm10-builddate-TINY-inc.zip.
Hey,
Are there any stock roms we can flash via CWM/TWRP? Flashed the CM10 rom, but can't stand how slow its made my wifi. Any input would be greatly appreciated!

Slow wifi? I have no idea what you're talking about as I don't think CM10 can affect that in any way.
TWRP is all we have so far, and CM10 is the only ROM so far. The only other ROM even remotely being worked on is MIUI but the person doing that says he will be without his PC for a few days.
If you really have wifi issues check other devices on the same network and use speedtest.net or something. If it really is oddly slow, I would re-flash.

It's definitely not my network, specifically occurring on the KF2 with the unofficial CM10 rom.
I'm not looking for another group release, but the stock rom; someone else mentioned in a thread being able to rename the amazon update .bin file to .zip, and flash with TWRP, but that hasn't worked so far.
