How to tether w/ Nero v5? - Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm trying to use usb to tether my vibrant. I enabled usb tethering through settings but windows doesn't detect it and says it cannot update the drives. I installed Samsung Kies but it doesn't detect my vibrant either. What to do?

use mobile ap. never really tried usb tethering, mobile ap works just fine. doesn't really answer your question but that works for me.

I guess we're kinda confused... are you wanting to connect (i.e. "mount") your phone to your computer? or are you trying to use your phone to get your computer to connect to the internet (i.e. "tether")? if you want to just tether, you need to enable the mobile ap under Settings>Wireless and Network>Mobile AP> and check the box that says "mobile ap". If you are wanting to mount your phone to your computer, why are you wanting to do it... for odin or just to copy files?

I want to use usb tether to use the internet on my computer because it doesn't have wifi. I tried to plug in play but it doesn't detect anything.

Works fine for me.

when connecting mobile to laptop it is not asking me to mount the storage on phone. when i go to usb tethering option it says usb not connected.regardless of this situation charging through usb is very well happening.

Are you using a Samsung data cable?
If that doesn't solve it, your best bet is to just do a system wipe and re-flash.
As claimed the upgrade from 10.6 to 11 doesnt work properly. Now i reflashed 10.6 and usb connection looks good.
Did a wipe again and flashed v11. no luck this time also not recognizing usb. so no computer connection and no tethering

Just enable USB-Tethering on your phone. After some time you should be able to find a device named 'SAMSUNG Mobile USB Remote NDIS Network Device' in the device manager of your PC. You should then be able to use the phones data connection from your PC.
Thanks again for some reason just says Android Samsung then I got kies n it found it then when I teather blue screen even more problems now n kies don't even connect at least my mobiles running smooth

for those with litening rom or anyone else, when I try to tether my telstra internet from my mobile on my pc i get the message that there has been a problem installing the device, and when i look at device manager is says:
"SAMSUNG Mobile USB Remote NDIS Network Device #2" it has a yellow exclamation point symbol next to it and says "device cannot start"
anyone know how to fix this issue?
is it just simply a matter of trying to find a driver?
I don't think the error you get is related to the ROM but I might be wrong. I have attached two screenshots of my USB driver, maybe this helps.
I do not have Kies installed as I don't use it. I use only the USB drivers provided by SamHaLeKe which you can find here.
thanks,fxrb I will update try that and update kies aswell

I don't understand you. The only way to share Internet connection is via usb, bluetooth or wifi tethering.

yes,i know all of those features and i've already successfully do them.
but this isn't my issue,my problem is that i want to run internet on pc using mobile as a source.
i want to see a modem installed on my pc device manager so i can control of detailed information to connect to access point from my computer.
In other words,
i want to access internet over usb cable by using phone as 3g modem when removing (Data Enabled) option , because it's assumed that two connection establised one on phone and the other one on pc.
This feature has been found in all nokia phones and samsung mobiles
i do that in acer liquid e special ferrari edition with froyo android 2.2 ...thanks in advance​

Then use the USB tethering option, as this uses the mobile 3G internet to access the WHOLE internet. Make sure all other connections are turned off on your PC.
I mean that when i removed the sign from Data Enabled, Internet connected and establish on my laptop (surfing,browsing and downloading is ok) from Acer Liquid E Special Ferrari Edition with Froyo Android v2.2...Why???
because mobile is being used to be a 3g modem or as a internet source not for sharing internet.
also i did this on nokia c7 and samsung monte but not android it was symbian and java.
So I hope you understand me now and helping me very soon.​

It is the same.
Computer uses the mobile(via USB cable) to connect to 3G Internet. Mobile internet is used. You need to enable the data in Android to use the internet.
i found this article
until they provide modem driver for android phone, especially sony xperia, then they will be impossible to make your phone as a modem and bridging the connection (eg: dial from your pc using *99#). right now the only option is to share your already connected internet by your phone with a pc, which means phone act as a router.
does it means that i can't use my mobile as a dongle modem???
