Ok So i'm running the New Jelly Bean Update and I am Rooted. I have noticed this is very buggy but it works. I don't know if other methods work this is the one i used. There seems to be no rhyme or reason to this but if you download WiFi Hotspot / WiFi Tether from the market, i believe its INNODROAPPS, then open it and click Tether, then Click USB Tether. It will say invaild user name if you keep turning this one and off randomly eventually it will still be checked and you will have your 3g still. Sometimes i can do it in the first try something it takes like 50 but at least its a tether option for now. Unless someone knows a better way, would love to hear it.

this has been discussed many times. there is no wifi tethering capability for jellybean yet. please use the search first.
You can find all the info you need by clicking here.
I think that this issue causes sleepless nights for many developers.
I'm on the Jelly bean update and im tethering 4g through usb to my computer just fine..... I used the tether app by clockworkmod. Try it

Are you on Verizon as your provider icon shows? You may be able to, but being this is a Sprint forum, we are not able to.
It's because liquid is aosp, not tw.

Is anybody able to connect with Clockworkmod tether
I used clockwork tether before but it's been a while.
After the JB update I updated the Tether app (had to DL clock clockworkmod because gogle play says our carrier does not support).
I can connect and use clockworkmod tether as long as my phone has WiFi enabled. However, when I disable the WiFi and try to connect using sprints network, it does not connect and I see the PC driver (Linux) opening and closing the connection continuously.
It seems like Sprint has figure out how to stop this?
I'm in the Orange County Ca, area.
Anybody here able to use cwm tether on the sprint network?
BTW: EasyTether Still works and can still get it from google play but I guess that's because Sprint can detect this one...
Update: Nevermind, it's now seems to have started working. Don't know what was going on but I've never had any trouble with this app before.
Now, If I just figure out how to get my premium license back...

To be honest... I don't think they read your post. They just dismissed it, told you wifi tethering was broken (even though you never claimed to have WIFI tether working) and told you to search... Hahaha I'm almost positive they just dismissed you based on your title of the thread

If you do a google search for clockworkmod tether on the web (computer) you will get the google play page amoung the items.
Go to the Google Play page then scroll down a little to the description and click MORE.
In the full description there are links to download the app from clockwork and the drivers for Windoz, Linux and Mac.
I don't know about OSX but for linux, you will need a compiler on the system.

It is not just modding an app. There are dozens of network and registration checks scattered throughout framework.jar and framework2.jar and they are very well hidden. This is the same reason the guy on the Droid forums never got the Verizon NFL app broken the second year...too many reg checks throughout the ROMs. Either keep an ICS nandroid backup or a CM10 backup for when you need to tether.

I found that wireless tethering apps would not work with CM based Roms and it was driving me crazy because I like AOSP so I found a fix finally. This is for people that DONT LIKE THE HOTSPOT and use wireless tethering apps like barnacle.
1. Flash a sense rom.
2. With a root file explorer of your choice navigate to etc/firmware.
3. Copy fw_bcm4329_apsta.bin and fw_bcm4329.bin. save these in a location on the SD card.
4. Flash you favorite AOSP rom.
5. Find the two files on your SD card and copy them.
6. Paste BOTH of the files in etc/firmware. Change the permissions to (see screenshot)

Most roms have built in wireless tethering without the need of an app. For instance, CM7 or CM9 has the tethering options under wireless networks.
Don't reply if you didn't read the OP. I don't like the built in feature because it doesn't work as well. This is for people that want to use wireless tether apps and NOT the hotspot.

Very Helpful
disconnecktie I love you. I've been stuck on stock rom for 8 months or so. I removed bloatware of course. I couldn't get wireless tether to work on any other rom. And that is the main reason that I rooted. Now I'm rocking cm9 bracketkang with working tether. Ics beats the @#$% out of sense 2.0. Thanks again. Any recommendations on other roms that I should check out?

I agree they work better than barnacle but wireless tether for root users is my favorite. I like that it tells you how much you have used each session.

Thanks for that knipp. It's ok though. I'm not promoting the use of illegal tethering at all. If someone else is and they are looking for a fix for that app then this is a guide for them. If anyone has a problem with people that use the app then make a thread and complain about it to those that care because I don't really give a damn.

Omg!The dev here is trying to help out people,and instead of thanking him you guys are simply complaining?Come on its common sense that its for guys who have got problem with inbuilt tether and obviously who are using 3rd party apps for the same!!If its not for you,just ignore the thread instead of trolling.

didn't work on my lg p500
because it turns off the 3g connection when I enable tethering.
but I think it's a ROM issue.
I have 2.2.1 installed on my lg p500, and I'd like to share my internet connection with a samsung galaxy tab (honeycomb 3.2).
With an other application (Wifi Theter) I can act as an hotspot, as I want, but my galaxy tab can't see the wifi network available. other devices can, I can connect from my notebook, as an example.
So, I assume the problem is on the galaxy tab.
galaxy tab can connect to other wireless networks, but can "see" the one provided by wifi theter.
Anyone knows I to solve this?
thanks in advance for any help

The reason FoxFi shuts off your 3g connection is because it turns on the wifi radio to use for hotspot access around the security in your phone.
As far as Wifi Tether goes, are you broadcasting in adhoc mode?
I just gave this app a go. It looks like everything setup just fine on the phone but when I try to connect with my windows 7 laptop I get a "cannot connect" error. I think it's trying to use an ad hoc connection type. I don't think ICS supports ad hoc tethering. Could someone with a gingerbread phone could give this a try? If it works on a gingerbread phone then it's probably an ad hoc issue.

I just made it work with GS3 via bluetooth, hotspot mode did not work for some reason.
Will do for VPN for now, since stock GC3 wont work with IPSEC alone...

That's interesting. I've been using Wi-Fi tether for over a year now, originally on my fascinate and most recently on my S3 without any problems.

Uhh not sure what you mean
Wifi tether is when your on a mobile data connection (4g/Edge) and you don't have Wifi...you turn it on and it acts as a router or hotspot and lets your laptop connect to it.
If your in an area with Wifi that you can connect to you don't need to use the app. The apps pretty much only for when your in a location w/o wifi.

sorry, no. I gather you want to know either way.
I used NOTEorious for 3-4 days, absolutely 0 issues connecting to WiFi at home. I'm using a Ubiquiti Power AP N
It also worked with my MikroTik RB751G-2HnD
DHCP, no static...
Albeit it's only been a week since I've had this phone. My current ROM is also working fine. I've been using Perseus kernel since I got it. I have not used any other kernels, including stock. I used Perseus or Siyah on my S3, so I continue to use the kernel I preferred on my last phone...
Well its just that when I turn off and on my WiFi then it gets stuck at obtaining IP address and then doesn't automatically connect like it typically should

Does it happen on other routers/access points too? Or just at home? Sorry for the delayed response.

At least it's consistent.. Hmm, what kernel(s) have you been using?
if you're doing full wipes and what not it'd be odd if just the dhcp daemon of the system was corrupt across multiple roms.....but i could be wrong, i'm no expert lol
im using the PK29 kernel

Apparently there are issues with 29, as he updated the WiFi driver. He reverted the driver update on 29.1. If you are still on 29 I'd recommend updating. Hmm...

Static ip won't help, yes you can connect to wifi, but cannot get connection to internet. This is a bug of android, and ITs in Princeton univ. had some investigation. 4.2 should have fixed it

Mine must have been a different issue. When I went to static ip I was able to get to the internet very quickly.

Looks like a good place to ask....where the hell is wifi scan interval set at on Note 2?? I looked in my build.prop where it normally is but didn't see it. Its usually set low (around 20) by stock and I always up that to 150-180 so I am not constantly scanning for other Wi-Fi when I am at home or locked on a good network.

Are you undervolting a lot? That can cause issues like that

I am starting this OP because this has become an issue across all custom ROMs at this point.
T-Mobile knows it is happening and their detection is actually impressively quick. They are very quick and have actually blocked my tethering within seconds of being warned.
I think it makes sense to have a forum where people can explain the situation instead of in the ROM thread where we all can state which ROM we are using, how we set up the hotspot, what device we used to connect to our phone and how fast we were detected by T-Mobile.

I am on Darthstalker v8 and wifi hotspot Hack is built in. I used it for a while with no issues and within the last day T-Mobile has really caught on. I have not changed my devices I used to connect. They are within seconds catching on and I am being directed to the upsell page. Any ideas what could possibly be triggering it in the ROMs?

If you don't change your user agent they will detect you quick. J haven't had any problems....using various ROMs either using safari browser or chrome with a android user agent
Ive been playing dota 2 and blacklight retribution for th last 3 days with no problem.

I'm not sure I don't use a Mac but if they got chrome for Mac I don't see why not
i use chrome but switch agent user to Firefox 3.5 and it works. i can play any game onlines via tmo tether and have not stopped my tethering phone yet.
Are you allowed to tether a connection to ps3 without T-Mobile knowing? When I tried I also got a warning..
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium
Happens on Macs a lot easier for some reason. Go get chrome and get the user agent switcher. Change it to android and you're set.

any tether will require the user agent switch......tetherring now and all good. if your data connects your tetherimg is fine just need to switch user agent....real simple fix

Yea its here. Just install as a normal app and use the app for tether. Do not use the phones toggles or anything already on phone use the app.. Its here http://db.tt/BKG1Cigj
If it works for you let me know.. And no it requires nothing, at least for me and I have zero tethering plan just unlimited data and 500 mins.
I just turn on.. I don't use fall back or anything else. For me no user agent switch whatsoever..
