Unlimited tether with T-mobile/Metro PCS? - HTC Desire 530 Questions & Answers

Tmobile and Metro PCS don't block hotspot however they do slow you down once you reach your GB Limit, has anyone managed to get unlimited Wireless Tether?
I'm currently using PdaNet+ which hides tether usage but only to PC's connected through USB. I messed with the app called WiFi tether router but no luck \:
Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

What speeds are you getting via 4g and wireless tether?

My phone get's 5mbps on the phone but via wireless tethering it only manages to push 1mbps....Just wondering if anyone else is experiencing this or it it's just me?
Shouldn't wireless tethering be close to the speed on the phone?
my evo isnt rooted but i get 11mb down and 1mb up. i use easytether. i had a mt3g rooted just for wifi tether and i dont think it was worth it. yeah it was fun and all but not worth it just for the wireless tether.
anyway i get this while tethered via usb: its also in my sig

No Wireless Router.....

So I try to run wireless tether 2.0.7 and i get nothing.... Anyone have success with any version of Wireless tether?

USB tethering to a WIFI router

I would like to be able to connect my PS3 to my 3G/4G connection via a WIFI router. I have a Cradlepoint CTR35 3G router as well as a Zoom 4501 3G router that I have attempted to USB tether and WIFI tether (using the repeater feature) my phone to. I am on Caulkin's 2.8.1 rom, EL29 modem, which has the unlocked Sprint hotspot and USB tethering features. On both routers, I am unable to get the "3G connected" light to turn on indicating internet access. Are there any routers that are compatible with the Epic 4G Touch? Is there a better way of doing this? My PS3 does not see the AD-HOC connection if I just use the Sprint Hotspot app. My laptop connects directly just fine to both USB tethering and WIFI tethering. I greatly appreciate your input! Thanks

I have Caulkin's 2.8.1 and under apps it has a Sprint Hotspot app. That is what I am using for the WIFI tethering attempts. I need to do some further testing with the WIFI tethering to the router, but my main concern is to be able to USB tether to a router that supports the Epic 4G Touch and currently neither of the 3G routers I have purchased work in USB tether or WIFI tether.....need some insight. Thanks

The Sprint hotspot app creates an infrastructure connection, and not adhoc.
I don't see why you are trying to connect the Epic Touch to yet another router when it IS itself a router via the hotspot app, and up to 8 devices.

what your saying is true.. and yes the person did say ad hoc doesnt work, but if you read it, he also stated just using the hotspot app doesnt work.. regardless, my suggestion would be to just get internet at home and buy a regular router id like to see you play a high end game online with a 3g/4g connection lol.. either your phone is messed up, or your not setting it up properly.. because like ppl have said, the hotspot app turns your phone into a wireless router already..
I just tested connecting the PS3 to my E4GT using the Sprint Hotspot app on Calk's ROM and it works perfectly fine.

[Q] Any luck with WiFi tether app?

I just bought the Note2 for Tmobile with unlimited data but I did not pay for the plan with tethering through the t-mobile hotspot because those plans limit the amount of high-speed data you get. The majority of my data is used directly from my phone but on rare occasions I would like the option to tether my laptop. Does anyone know of an app (or workaround) that works on the N2 that will allow you to WiFi tether?

This worked for me, except I had to use tethering widget-https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.achmyr.android.froyo& instead of wifi for root users

Tmobile Galaxy S4 SGH-M919 4.3 USB Tethering?

So ive been desperately trying to get USB tethering to work on my Rooted S4 after the 4.3 update. I have the Tmobile SGH-M9191 - M919UVUEMK2, I downloaded and paid $1.95 for Wifi Tether Router and it works fine for Wifi but has no USB tether - I also have unlimited everything and 2.5 GB free tethering which isn't enough. Does anyone know of an app that has usb tethering that works on this phone? I'm willing to flash a ROM, pay for an app, whatever it takes. I get 15 mbps on wifi tether app, but on stock USB tether I get 35+ mbps. Also with usb tether the phone charges while being used. Ive been searching for so freaking long and can't find a solution.
