[Q] Easytether not working on CM 10.1 - Sprint LG Optimus G

I use a USB tether app called Easytether. It's my sole means of internet for my computer and it isn't working with CM. Can anybody help me get this working or explain why it won't work? I tried checking Tethering in the pull down menu but it stays off. Went in to settings to try to check it, still a no go. Uninstalled Easytether thinking maybe then I'd be able to enable tethering, no go. Reinstalled Easytether, tried it again, still no good. I don't have a wireless card for my desktop, so I really need this working.
This app worked flawlessly on stock and on non-AOSP ROMs.

its most likely because asop has different drivers then the stock roms so it prob doesnt support those drivers yet. try going on the irc and see if they might be able to do anything about it.

I haven't used that particular app, or CM on this phone, so I can't offer any ideas as to why it's not working for you. I would recommend WiFi Tether for Root Users from the Play Store. I've never had a problem with it...

I don't have a wireless card. This app ran me a one time fee of $10 as well, so I'd like to get it working again haha.

So you need to tether via usb. Gotcha. I had that working a while back, lemme check a few things out & I'll let you know if I figure out a working solution.

I've been talking with Shelnutt2 and Artlan, they're trying to get it resolved. The built in tethering for CM 10.1 isn't working on the LS970 currently either. I'm sure they'll have it resolved shortly.

PDANet seems to be working for me via usb, so you could always try that out. No guarantees it will work on Cm (I'm running lifeless), but I don't see why it wouldn't.

Easytether worked for me on Lifeless as well, but we're going from stock based ROMs to AOSP. I'm still having issues getting this running. Going to check in IRC and see if the Devs can help. Built in tethering on CM also isn't working for me.

Wifi tether

Is there a wifi tether out that is working for the e4gt ?

Check out the sprint hotspot hack. Sorry for no link. Think it might be in the themes/app section

The previous 2 posts handle all of your needs. Hotspot hack is only for 3g right now Wifi Tether works great for 4g needs

STOCK E4GT with root... when I try to load any version of Wifi Tether it makes my wifi radio not work again at ALL until I uninstall wifi tether AND run another app that utilizes the wifi radio like the kies app after a restart. This is consistent after 4 different version attempts. I do NOT want to try to the deodexed hotspot hack until the LOS fix is official, because I do not want to run anything but stock until then. Anyone in my boat that has figured out how to make it all play nicely?

Let me see if I have what you said right. Without any tether app installed, just the sprint hotspot, the hotspot works. But then if you install wireless or wifi tether it makes the sprint hotspot not work?
I had the same issue. Until I did the same.

...not entirely. I mean the wifi could not connect to an access point until I ran the kies app. Did not try the stock tether app, because I don't want to pay for a service that I may use a couple times a year.
Also, seeing your sig you may be the person to help me. What is the best speed controller/motor combo for an old school RC10T that I want to get going again in a big way? Reverse stopped working a while ago and I am pretty sure the motor is shot as well. Been seeing some people clock ridiculous speeds with some of the new repower kits out there.
Never have been an electric guy, always nitro. But the brushless stuff is where its at and running lipo batts. Castle creations is one of the best companies out along with teken. Pricey stuff but they are well worth it. If you want more shoot me a pm.

Best tethering app

What app Oscar anyone using on their rooted Samsung s iii?
Prior to switching it was baked into my CM9 os. So I am not sure what app to download. I have tried one bit it is constantly stopping

WiFi Tether from the market works best for me!
I am seeing a lot of negative comments about this app 'wifi tether' and gs III stock. It seems to indicate that it does not play well together. This is why I was asking, because this was my experience today: No consistent connection, it simply drops the tether and the app stops.
Sent from my AT100 using Tapatalk 2
Better get used to it if ur stayin stock. All that works unless u have the means to Bluetooth tether. If u can do it with Bluetooth try foxfi. Normal tether doesn't work with it yet. Also if u haven't done so, in addition to setting gnex profile in the tether app and unchecking the disable wake lock option, delete ConnectionManager.apk from /system/app. Probably the cause of your tethering woes
Thanks for confirming

WiFi Tether works for me just fine (gotta select the GNexus CDMA/LTE profile).
The only hiccup I've found is that before I activate tethering, I often need to do a fresh reboot on the GSIII, or else it will claim its broadcasting, but it really isn't.
And, of course, root IS required for this particular app.

I don't know enough about the rules on posting links so................
I did a google search for "wifi tether versions"
Down toward the bottom of the results I came across a page from the androidpolice site.
Right above the row of three screen shots is the following sentence: (If it does get pulled, however, you can always grab the apk from Here).
Click on the word "Here" and it will take you to the android-wifi-tether project home page.
Click on downloads and that will get you to where you want to be.
I am running Jelly Bean on my GS3 and have yet to be able to get wifi tether or foxfi to work at all.
I am about to start at the oldest version of wifi tether and work my way forward until I find something that works.
Until I find something stable, I will be using pdanet for wired tether. Hey, it works all day long for me.
On EDIT.............
Ignore most of the above and just google "android wifi tether project"
It will cut out most of the steps and is the first result on google.
Dang, I've been here almost two years and still considered a new member?
Had to wait 5 minutes before I could edit the post with better info.
Trust me, I'm a real person........not a spam bot!
Sure it has something to do with post count.
Any luck with older versions of wifi tether?

Not yet.
Work got real busy right after I made the post and I wasn't able to go through the apk's.
I have to go over to another house and do a few hours worth of work before I can really get in and mess with these.
It may be late this evening (for me) but I am still going to try and run through them.
Sorry about the delay.
I wasn't able to do anything with this until this morning.
I was unable to get any of the versions to work with JB.
Three different computers........three different os's, n one would see it.
Could possibly be that I am simply missing something.
Ver 1.81.3 wprks fine with the sprint version.

That is incorrect. On the newest wifi tether app in the market, you set it as Samsung galaxy s3 and it works great. On 3.1 beta 14, you have to select galaxy nexus cdma

Wi-Fi tether on 4.2.1?

I have tried a number of 4.2.1 ROMS and still have yet to find one that will let me tether my laptop. I have tried the native wifi tether...and the tethering app... It used to have no issues working with my laptop on 4.1...but since I jumped to 4.2 I can't seem to get anything going here.... Is there a working wifi tether or am I SOL...

Im currently using this ROM and native wifi tether works perfectly fine. I should add that I'm on R6, 4.2( R8 is the current one which is 4.2.1) as I've had no need to update it.
Ok..as soon as I can find a R6 ROM I will give that a shot and see what gives... My laptop connects but it says "limited connectivity" ... basically no internet...
Would the kernel make a difference? If I ran a 4.2 kernel?
Works with the Paranoid Android ROM and Franco Kernel as well.
Damn...PA is a R8 release? What the hell is wrong with mine then..LOL

That's true, however for whatever reason this function was not fully functional in quite a few of the ROM's i've used in the past.

I'm using rasbean and with trinity kernel. And I can't get it to work either. Using wifi tether it gives me errors and won't show the created network. It has errors in the log creating "ap". If I try to use the builtin app it creates an "ap" and allows me to connect, but it won't actually let me to browse the Internet. This is over two rasbean roms and the stock kernel and trinity kernel. I've tried changing the device to the gsm version and I have also tried using different apps. Open garden, barnacle, etc. So I do know what else to do.
Thanks ...

I would first try flashing it clean. Wipe System/Data and Factory reset. Then before installing anything test the Native tether to see if it works. I suggest using Cyanogenmod because many ROMs are built off of it, but that is your choice. I also suggest you try connecting another device to the AP to make sure the problem is not your actual laptop. Try tethering a tablet or another phone and see if it works.

Barnacle Wi-Fi tether

Hopefully someone can shed some light on this.
I used to use Barnacle on my old Photon, and had no issues with it. Now I'm running it on Lifeless ROM for our phones, and while it doesn't spit out any errors, it certainly isn't functioning the way it should.
Barnacle starts and runs perfectly, even shows " sharing your connection" with no errors at all, but still, no device is able to see or connect to the network. When searching for the Wi-Fi network on any other phone, laptop, etc, it's just not even there, like it doesn't exist.
If anyone is familiar with this app, or knows a way to get it functioning, I'd greatly appreciate any info.

Look up WIFI Tether on google play, there will be one called "WiFi Tether for Root Users" made by "Müller, Lemons, Buxton"
I've been using it for a while no issues so far.

WiFi Tether stopped working for me. It does what's described in the first post; runs fine, no errors, and says it's tethering. It worked for about a month and now nothing.

I took the advice and tried Wi-Fi tether from the market. Basically does exactly what barnacle did, with a slight change. Now, other devices will see and connect to the Wi-Fi network, but will still not get internet access. Almost like the data service was blocked.

[Q] Updated phone, re-rooted it, can't use WiFi Tether now?

Hey guys! As the title says, I updated my phone from ICS to Jelly Bean, re-rooted it, and now I can't use WiFi Tether. I changed the device profile to "Generic ICS/JB (wlan0) when I first got the app on ICS in order for it to work, and it doesn't work on that setting now. I've tried many other settings, and none of them work either. It says that tethering has started, the log doesn't show any errors, but when I try to connect with various devices, they just won't connect to it. Am I missing something? Thanks in advance!
I remember reading that tethering does not work on jb ROMs. Im pretty sure there is a jb ROM that does claim it works, just to lazy to find you a link

Look for the WiFi Tether-TrevE Mod.
I couldn't get tethering to work on Touchwiz JB even with TrevE mod, which is a shame because my phone is unlocked and on a carrier that does support tethering, yet it's still being blocked by Tmobile. Grr. Anyways, that's part of the reason I switched to AOKP. I highly recommend it.
WiFi Tether-TrevE Mod works for me on a stock JB rooted SGS2.
Haven't tried the Treve mod one yet, I'll give that a try and I'll post results, thanks!
Edit: So with that app, none of my devices see the network (my pc, my other phone, and my PS Vita).
I haven't tried USB tethering with it, because the only reason I tether with it is to play my Vita online when I'm not at home, so I have no use for USB tethering
