I'm trying to tether from ics to my xoom also running ics the only way I can do it is with the hacked sprint hotspot which works if I want to run gingerbread which I do not. Can't get the bluetooth pan tether to work either. I haven't found much about this in my searches.
ICS ROMs have built in tethering. Settings>More>tethering

Was wondering what ROMs out there for the DINC will support the VZW native Wifi hotspot app? Android Wifi tether has become unreliable for me, but don't I don't want to give up the MANY benefits of runnig a custom ROM. So what ROMs out there with support the stock WIFIRouter.apk?
Thanks!
Use a FroYo AOSP ROM--they have built-in Wi-Fi tethering. CM7 is a good idea, as is Ruby.
I would say omgb or omfgb they both work great

Sense roms support the official one like I use virtuous and I have the actually 3g hotspot

Everyone says WiFi tether is faster and better, but I have problems with it some times to.
For example, on some ROMs with wifitether, I can't connect to my exchange server. Remote desktop doesn't work either.
I get this same problem connect to exchange and remote desktop to office with some motel WiFi as well. Never really figured it out.
I like the stock WiFi router as well. Always connect my laptop to work. Exchange and remote desktop.

It's been a month or two since I've had a properly working wireless tethering and I was wondering if you guys know a version that works on the stable CM7. An alternate wired tethering would be nice too. Thanks!

using wireless tethering from time to time and it works fine for me...
Is anyone able to connect to internet using barnacle wifi on your phone. My thrive doesn't see the connection. It can find the connection to the paid tether but not barnacle.

Barnacle won't work without rooting your thrive. Google wifi tether download and look for the latest beta. It did the trick for me.

Barnacle uses ad-hoc which is not native to the Thrive. If you root the device, there is a patch for ad-hoc support.
tether wifi
There are two options here root your thrive and install the new wpa file or get your rooted phone to run in ap mode instead of adhoc mode. wif tether is now running ap mode if you have the right kernal and hardware to use it
Hey guys,
I was wondering what the best option in the Google Play store is for a free wireless tether or hotspot app would be. Any recommendations would help.
Also, a second question. Is there a good ROM that has a stock (TW or pure android) look but has a reliable Sprint Hotspot hack included? I was using Calkulin's E4GT ROM but I consistently get random reboots and its quite frustrating. I also used CM9 but that did not have any hotspot hack built in. Thanks again for any help!
Foxfi is great. Works for rooted and unrooted tethering. it can be found in the play store. If you are rooted just google the wifi tether app for rooted users.

I agree. I have Foxfi and sprint hotspot. Both work great

Like the others said, fox fo is great
And blu Kuban works good with wifi tether.. Doesn't have a stock TW look tho.. A lot of blue.. But there are launchers and icon packs for that
I've done a lot of research and I'm aware of foxfi able to do this by enabling the proxy built in but will only work when I a ice cream sandwich Rom or later.. To my understanding jellybean rid of this useful feature to become useless.. Is there any workaround anyone have that works.. I can't even get the Internet sharing from my wired note 2 to pc to share out to work.. It sends out a ad-hoc signal which I've read that ps3 don't read.

Yes you can Wifi Tether. You must be rooted though and install a custom ROM. Go over to ptmr3's JediX or Jedi Master ROM over in the Android development section and give one of those a run! CM10.1 works great as well (i find that AOSP ROMs have faster USB Tether speeds).
You can tether your Wifi Connection to a USB Hub on a Desktop (Not sure about PS3) and it will work fine. 4G/3G works great as well!
I can't seem to get it to connect the best thing I can have it do is use foxfi and it will see it but won't have a Internet connection thru the ps3
