I just rooted (teamepic cwm+root.zip) and installed the android wifi tether. Wifi tether is not working. I went to the QBKing thread in development, and see that others are having similar wifi tether problems. Does anyone have wifi tether working on an LG2 release? I am considering flashing back to a stock LF9 if sprint managed to bork the wifi tether with their latest release.
TIA.
works for me
No problems for me on LG2. What exactly is the problem?

After my laptop connects to the tether, I can't actually get out to the internet. It's like the NAT is not working. checking the IP stack on my laptop, I am getting the right ip address, gatway, etc assigned. Wifi tether shows the laptop connected. But I can't do anything.
I followed the QBKING video step by step (except using a different password for encryption). I have the Samsung Galaxy Nexus (LTE/CDMA) profile selected. I've tried some others in desperation, but none are working.
I think I'll try uninstall/reinstall of wifi tether, or maybe just use foxfi now that i am rooted.
go to settings of the wifi tether app if you havent already and set it to enable the security settings so that youll need a password on any device you enable to use your phones internet signal and that should work because i was having that problem with the wifi tether app on my evo 3d and when i enabled security protection that allowed additional devices to connect to the internet. on my galaxy s3 i havent had any problems like that cause i intiially started with this method and ive been up and running just fine and im in houston so it seems the 4g lte is up and running here cause my phone shows 4g at the top for signal and my pages load up on the phones web searches faster than when its connected to my uverse wireless modem. hope this helps you man.

Ok if you didn't already, try gnex gsm instead. Also does the tether app show any numbers moving or do they stay at 0.0. Make sure your version of the tether app is up to date as well. And disable wake lock is unchecked in settings
I had the same issues as the op. With wireless tether change profile to galaxy nexus gsm not cdma and you must use access control. Then you should PROFIT......

Are you using the "WiFi for Rooted Users" app? If so be sure to change your Device-Profile.
Open App>Settings>Change Device-Profile> Select Samsung Galaxy Nexus (CDMA/LTE)

If your using wireless tether go to profile change to galaxy nexus gsm then enable access control and routing fix checked then you should be good.

Ok, am I the only one who doesn't know what this means? I see the term PROFIT used a lot here but I cannot figure out its definition or context. Could someone explain it to me?
Thanks.

Has anyone had a chance to try this? Did it fix the intermittent connection problems? I am going to try it later, because wifi tether is still not working for me (LG8) using Galaxy Nexus CDMA/LTE and with the access control disabled. I am just curious to see if anyone has this working as using the GSM profile is counter-intuitive for Sprint.

I tried it and the wifi tether still doesn't work. Half the time I start it, it requests Superuser and "starts" but there is no SSID being broadcast and I don't think the wifi radio is actually turned on. Every once in a while, it will broadcast the SSID, and I can connect but the up/down data stay at 0.00kb. Other times, I can connect, and I see the up/down data slowly incrementing, but I can't actually get out to the internet (or FTP, or telnet or....).
I guess I'm just fooked until foxfi or android wifi tether for root actually release a specifically-supported SGS3 version of their apps.
My issues were i could see the ap but not fully connect or allow internet access. Make sure your using access control it will not work with out it. Also make sure you have routing fix checked and use auto not ad hoc.

I'll give that a try, thanks.
*edit* I'm starting to wonder if this is an LTE-related thing. After a bit of testing, it seems like the tether works ok if I am on a 3G connection, but when I'm on LTE is when it won't work.
I've been using the stock rooted jellybean as my daily driver (FL16, great battery life) and I can't get any of the popular WiFi tether apps to work. The sprint hotspot app doesn't work either, obviously.
With 'Wifi Tether for Root Users', I'm unable to connect to the network even though I can see it. (tested on multiple PCs)
With FoxFi, I can connect to the network but it shuts off my 4g (some sort of sprint protection).
With sprint hotspot, it shuts off my 4g as well.
Does anyone know of a fix or a certain version of one of these apps that will work for me? I did a bit of perusing and couldn't find any good information on it.

Unfortunately, we don't have native 4g tethering yet as far as I know.

I have tether and devices connect, but do not work. Should have stuck to my initial plan and just stayed on KK.

Works for me. Upgraded via recovery and actually haven't had any issues in LP. SDcard, tethering, etc all work great. You're talking WiFi tethering right? I'd like Bluetooth, but that's not in the cards it seems.

Yeah wifi tether, It connects but no data
Did you select 2.4Ghz or 5? I could not connect my tablet to 5Ghz, but the 2.4 worked fine...

I'm pretty sure its set to 2.4, I'm using the app called wifi tether router. Because i can't get into the tether settings because of xposed.
.. Okay so will somebody finally answer the question if any tether apps are working without root for the G4?
My T-Mobile phone came with a tethering app that works great. I haven't tried any from the play store like FoxFi because I haven't had a need.
Anybody else?

Try this, no promises. You'd need a FoxFi paid version or PDANet to utilize USB tethering.
Create IPv4 APN and add ,dun to the APN type. Then use PDANet with the hide tether usage option enabled. I think I've managed to get it working for myself last night.

I know some routers can treat your phone as a USB modem, but I don't have one at home nor have I tried before. I know it's possible though.
