Hi guys,
I started this thread because sometimes it is very confusing digging to threads when topics are device-mixed.
This post should be used only for the issue How to enable "Internet Sharing" = Tehtering on a LG e900 Optimus 7 running with the official WP 7.5 MANGO software (Build 7.1.7720.68)
May be some very helpful hints from same topics for other devices may be "quoted" to give ideas how to iterate towards a working solution.
Best regards Uwe
Here are the facts of my LG Phone:

How did you update to mango ? your wifiSW is different, maybe you didn't get the LG update (my mango update was called "LG Update for Windows phone") ?
Hi,
thanks! The info about FW and WiFi Version may be helpful and worth to follow up!
I first used the Developer RTM Preview Version of MANGO and on Sept. 29th I received announcement of an update available. After that Ih updated via Zune in the normal, official way without problems.
Where did you find the LG-Firmware-Update?
May be its woth to tellt the firmware filename (Version) and the corresponding FW Revisions of each Sub-item e.g. WiFi, cellular, ...
I tried yesterday using update-tool from LG (phone had to be set in emergenca mode) but nothing changed. Also enabling the QC-Composite Mode (the old but working solution of Pre-Mango-NoDo state) is nomore usable.
Maybe there is a link for the firmware. I´m on Vodafone Germany.
Best gegards Uwe
There was no separate LG Update, i did the force update trick by disconnecting after a few seconds.
Then Zune made two updates in a row, first one very quick and second one, very long, Mango itself, which was called "LG Update for Windows Phone".
I'm thinking that bacause on my HTC, sharing connection wouldn't work until after the drivers were updatee (but in that case, it was an additionnal update AFTER mango).
Everything works fine! Problems solved
Hi guys, Vodafone´s new firmware for LG E900 Optimus 7 cures everything!
All you need ist an new FW working perfect with MANGO 7.1.7720.068
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=935578
For Germany e.g. use Vodafone Version
LG-E900AT-00-V10p-262-02-SEP-02-2011+0_DZ which supports Internetsharing as well as USB tehering when switching to QC COMPOSITE mode in MFG App and known modem settings and datamode disabled.
OPEN Market FW
DZ_LG-E900AT-00-V11b-262-XXX-AUG-17-2011+0
OR
DZ_LG-E900AT-00-V11c-NEU-XXX-SEP-05-2011+0
do not support Internetsharing, but USB tethering
Have fun

Wait what? You got an additional Update to the HTC Update for Windows Phone (Mango)
@Ludacris: People who upgraded to Mango retail from a pre-release version got the HTC update (the one that re-enables DFRouter/USBModeSwitch tethering, but breaks TouchXplorer and blocks unlocking using Connection Setup) in a separate update. That's how I was able to interop-unlock my HTC phone with a retail ROM.
@flobo09: If you got the HTC update apart from the Mango update but you *didn't* upgrade from a pre-release Mango version, please explain how you did it!
Yeah, I went trough that upgrade path as I am a registered developer - I am still Interop-Unlocked on Mango (with the HTC Update) aswell but I still can't tether (did not try the USB Method) but if I get this right, this thread is about the official method of tethering (via ICS) - right?
Yes this thread is only for LG E900 Optimus 7 Phone
Don´t mess up with other handsets like HTC SAMSUNG OMNIA7 to keep thread clean.
Also no tweaking like INTEROPS oder DEVUNLOCK is recommended
We all know that those issues are helpful , but this thread is intended for "normal" users, whitout any ambitions for sophisticated Homebrews and Hacks.
Thanks

I just got an update message in Zune on a DE bought Optimus 7 (now in NL on VF business NL sim) and after applying the update, the internet sharing option appeared out of nowhere in settings yay!
It looks like its WiFi only for now though, I would prefer USB tetheringpersonally. IP address of the connected client is 192.168.33.187, and I have an antenna icon in the status bar when enabled. I have to choose between connecting to an access point or acting like one, so you can't have both at the same time which sounds logically to me.

USB Tehtering
Hi,
USB also works like before NoDo...
Just use MFG app to switch USB-Port setting from MS COMPOSITE to QC COMPOSITE, deactivate DATA Connection and setup your CDMA Modem in Windows like described in other threads.

U.
just a dumb question why is it that WM 6.5 can have the data connection active while usb tethering. My ancient HD2 can do both at the same time...but my HD7 can't dispite having IDENTICAL hardware lol...
I have 2 E900 coming in the mail and it seems pointless to have wireless tethering when the phone is charging via USB....
It's a matter of whether the phone is routing the connection (which apparently WinMo did) or is exposing the cellular modem directly to the USB connection (which is what the wired tethering hacks for WP7 do). Note that the official WiFi tethering feature uses routing and doesn't require disabling data on the phone.
hi,i am having lots of trouble on my Galaxy Note 2 cause is not showing Firmware Version in Windows 8 and it stops me updating,i am on BTU original firmware with no root or anything and on Windows 7 works perfect without any problem,anyone knows whats causing this problem thanks alot

Hi everyone,
I'm trying to connect my Galaxy Note 3 Neo (SM-N7505) to a mini camera "CGO1 Wifi 5.8 Ghz" installed on my drone 350QX3 without success.
After investigation, it seems that Samsung has restrained their smartphones at 5.2 Ghz in Europe (contrary to Apple, iphone 5, 5s and 5c : they are working fine) !
As Wifi is handled by the kernel, I suppose that I've to make some modification of it... so now... is there any way to unlock the 5.8 Ghz (...with the help of app Universal init.d perhaps ?).
Any help would be very appreciated !
Info : no root has been done yet on my smartphone, official firmware is N7505XXUCNG2 with Android 4.4.2, kernel version is :
3.4.39-2244489 / [email protected] #1 / Fri Jul 25 17:41:08 KST 2014
(PS Sorry for my bad English)
Need help to unlock Wifi 5.8 Ghz
I too need help with this. I have a Note 3 N9005 with Aryamod (Lollipop 5.1) and cannot see my C-Go1 camera with my phone. I can connect it to my friends LG G3 and to my laptop.
Bump on this thread.
I was able to connect to my 5.8ghz FPV drone yesterday whilst in the US using my EU stock Note 3 (SM-N9005), but now that I'm back in the UK, it cannot see the drone's network anymore. The network is there however as my laptop can see it but there is no Windows app.
Hi everyone,
does anyone can offer a guidance how to root and unlock the bootloader of a zenfone 2 (ZE551ML) with linux (and not windows virtual machine or wine as alternative)?
Does anyone know how to get a fastboot version for linux on ubuntu which can connect to a intel x86 based smartphone like the ZE551ML? The old and active ubuntu fastboot version 4.2.2 cannot do this.
I hope what I have requested is possible.
Hello,
I have a Renault Twingo 2017 with R-Link updated to the last firmware version available that supports Android auto via usb cable (11.344 renault firmware) and I am on the last EU miui firmware 11.0.3 stable PGGEUXM with android 9 (01-11-2019 patch).
When I connect the phone to the usb port with the original phone's usb cable the car's system will tell 'usb device not supported'. I tried to dowgrade the android auto version by downloading it from apk mirror but it will automatically apdate the first time I open the app. Any suggestion to make it work?
hello it works well for me and what I did was remove the usb debugging. try
I found out it was not an issue with the phone but it's the car.. Renault enabled smartphone mirroring in the ECU only after a certain date so my car don't have it available (with the same firmware as mine later cars have it enabled by factory) . I ordered an obd adapter and I will check after enabling it with a guide I found on gps-rlink website and some related youtube videos about ddt4all program (I can't link external sites).
Probably this is not an issue with the phone itself.
This thread may be useful for people trying to use it on various renault models from 2017 and early 2018 advertised as compatible with android auto but without the mirroring icon available.
I confirm it is working fine after enabling it in the ECU of my car.
Bought a Ford Elm-327 bluetooth adapter with CAN switch, soldered pin 3 to 13 and pin 11 to 12, and with DDT4ALL wrote the "android auto enabled" flag into the ECU. Everything fine on note 8 pro, just updated yesterday to android 10.
