Since there are no hotspot mods yet, what have you had success with? I can live for the time being without custom roms but I absolutely need tethering. The CF autoroot seems to be working now but there have only been a few mentions of tethering...
Have you looked at this?

I am with Sprint and just wanted to see if I root my device will I still be able to use the hotspot feature?
Thanks,

Based on your question, I suspect that you are paying for the official Sprint hotspot service. After rooting, you can use the tethering capability built into 2.2 WITHOUT having to pay Sprint $30 per month for the privilege. If you choose to run a 2.1 ROM, you can use Google's Wireless Tether app and accomplish the same thing, again without paying Sprint a single penny.
For the Sprint Hotspot functionality, you will need to be sure to find a ROM that has that apk installed. Quite a few of the custom ROMs remove this because it is obsolete in comparison to the wifi tether application from google.

I thought he meant you could use sprint's wifi hotspot app if you have a rooted 2.2 rom. I already use the wifi tether app.

Do Foxfi and Wifi Tether apps support JB yet? I have had no sucess getting them to work yet, so I was hoping that was the case rather than a problem with my phone.
Thanks for your help.
I'm curious, why do you even need an app to do tethering? It's built right into the OS.

Figured it out. Please excuse noobness.
He needs an app like "tether for root users" because the in OS tether charges money for tethering whereas root apps that allow WiFi tether don't incur any charges.

Hi
What is the fastest way to enable free wireless tethering on a stock sprint HTC evo 4g.
It is my father inlaws phone, I don't want to do anything major like install a custom rom if possible.
Thanks so much for the responses.
Just search "no root Wi-Fi tether" on the market. Try the first one that pops up called one click tether or something like that.

You are going to have unlock it and then you can leave the stock rom on it but you need to look for a hack wifi hotspots zip file and then he can keep the stock rom and have hotspots for free

If for some reason rooting is not an option for you and finding a wireless wifi is not working because you're not rooted... Then resort to plan B and go USB tether with PDAnet

Contrary to popular opinion, we can't read every post or thread out there. Can't move what we don't know about. That is why there is a Thread Maintenance drop down in the Report. You know, you hit it.

Can someone please help? I was running wifi tether for root users for months but I have been having issues connecting my kindle for the past 3 or 4 days. I recently flashed a new ROM, wicked jb v5 but even after that it was still working flawlessly. I updated my wicked jb to v6 ROM today but it still doesn't work. Can someone please help me because the tethering is so necessary for me as I'm sure it is for a lot of other t-mobile rooted customers.
I recently been getting texts that appear to be from t-mobile saying that I have used 400 of the 500 mb hotspot on my data plan. The problem is I have done zero tethering what so ever. I first started seeing this text after using the android app XBMC on my phone to stream a few movies. It seems as if the phone is seeing this app as another device using the connection but its all on the same device. I am just trying to see if anyone else has experience this. I notice I do not get the texts if I use the vpn the whole time. Any thoughts as to what is going on?
I don't understand the question.
Use the vpn to hide traffic
Tmobile is probably seeing the desktop user agent and is thinking that you are tethering.

I've had 2 similar problems. A week after I got the phone it started using all data as hotspot data. A factory reset fixed it.
A couple of weeks ago my Loader Droid app on my phone started using hotspot data. I cleared data and cache on the app and that fixed that problem.
factory reset will fix it, better hurry, the tmo mobile police will be at your door, as soon as you hit 1gig data. Always when you lay the phone down, make sure it is camera down. And place napkin over it, so they can't see who you are.
be prepared.
Sorry all, I could not resist...how many times have I told you Ax, don't get involved..but..no Ax.

He should be careful flashing - zip only no ODIN. I dirty flashed Omega and flashed ktoonsez TW kernel and it booted up and worked fine. However, the AppstoSD function did not really work - it did not actually move them to the SD.
