[Q] MIUI Tether? - Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hey everyone i have a problem here that is stumping me so bad, after rooting and installing AOSP MIUI fascinated MTD 1.7.15 GB on my fascinate i cant get wired or wireless tether to work what so ever so i tried installing this kernel and still no luck so i changed my rom to cm7 fascinated test build 10 and still no luck. At this point im lost and searching for answers in hope that i will be able to tether being as that is the main reason i rooted in the first place. As of now im back to stock and ready to do anything to get it to work.

This seems to be a problem with the both CM7 and MIUI at the moment. Barnacle works, but only provides ad hoc networking. That's fine if you want to tether a PC or laptop, but won't work for tethering an android tablet. At the moment, there is no off the shelf solution for tether tablets, though there is a method that involves rooting and altering the tablet so that it can work on ad hoc networks.

I've been able to tether using 3rd party wireless tether on both miui and cm7 with no problems

Im on latest MIUI and im using wireless tether 2.0.5-pre13 and it works flawlessly for me.

hi
haven't used the teather but does anyone know if the hotspot charges you or is it "free"

Same problem on Motorola Defy - MIUI
I have the same problem on Moto Defy with MIUI.
The "Wireless Tether for Root Users" was perfectly able to tether in infrastucture mode on Moto Defy with Eclair and Froyo.
In MIUI the same software id doesn't! It's just able to tether in ad-hoc mode.
Quite a big limitation.

Is there a solution to the AP tethering issue with MIUI. Did anyone get it to work?

wifi hotspot - froyo roms

Hi
Been digging around for a bit on here and google.
Do any of the Froyo roms for Hero have the new wifi hotspot feature. Thats what I would use most. Have installed one but does not appear to be in there.
I'm not sure if any of the ROMs have it built in (I'm still on 2.1), but you can use an app like android-wifi-tether or aNetShare to get it done.
Have been using Wifi Tether, but on VillainRom 12 the encryption does not work. Have installed that on the Froyo rom now and encryption works, so must be an issue with the 2.1 Rom I had on phone.
Bump!
Any new roms that support wifi hotspot?
Most the Rom's I have used have been rooted, and I have effectively used Wireless tether for Root (Android Market)

yes tehre is, use something like netshare.. but it needs you to be rooted.. I don't know weather it works in every rom's or not..

[Q] Eris Bluetooth tethering

I have a Motorola Xoom and it does not support ad-hoc networks so I was wondering if there are any roms for the eris that would work with bluetooth tethering as GSB 2.8 does not work and it just reboots my phone when I attempt it. So if anyone knows an eris rom that would tether through bluetooth that would be great. Also I dont want to root my Xoom as its still new and has the latest android software.

well where is your tethering failing, because I'm running GSB 2.8 as well but I have no problem bluetooth tethering, I'm no beast with this ****, but what is your overclock set to? idk if your just getting a freeze and reboot that could be it
Ok after flashing just about every rom that is available for the eris i have found no real answer why my phone crashes and reboots when tethering via bluetooth I know on the hero(sprint) it works and they have no problem and our phone is the exact same thing internally so now im stumped.

Hey so I was wondering if you got this problem figured out because I'm in the exact same boat
eris and bluetooth tethering
Not sure if this is resolved, sorry for the duplicate post if it is. I was working on this same issue and came across this older thread. I am using my Eris with gsb3.6 and pdanet tablet. This worked fine for me.

Custom Kernel Question

Hey XDA,
I have a Question....
Does the custom kernel enable Hotspot-Wifi-Tethering like in Android 2.2 on many devices?
and can you explain me some of the features of FreeXkernel4?
Thank you,
best regards
Box
doesnt work for me, im using cm6 rom and wifi does not work after lots and lots of fiddling just wait a little longer and something great will be finished soon enough im sure
Im using the custom kernal on miui 1.3.18 and i used Trips wifi hack which sorts it out...my phone is so smooth and fast with custom kernal but battery drains super fast..but speed is totally worth it!
Sent from my X10i
I'm personally waiting out until a more definite stable kernel comes out.
How about native usb tethering
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
With Native Usb Tethering i cant tether network to PS3.
PS3 doesn support ADHOC....
I want tether internet without useing my computer...
anyone - any idea?
Try Barnacle Wi-Fi Tether (on the Market).
Already tried.... Wont work
on x10 it only provide ADHOC mode and my PS3 want connect to this couse it dont support it

[Q] Share my 3G connection with my tablet somehow... tether, hotspot, BT, don't care

I have an unrooted Asus Transformer running stock 3.1 and I'm trying to connect to the internet in any way I can through my Samsung Fascinate. My fascinate is rooted and running MIUI 1.7.1.3 with the 2.6.35.7-otb-cfs-fascinatemtd+ kernel.
I have tried the built in hotspot mode, Wireless Tether for Root Users (several variations of 2.0.7 and 3.0 and 3.1), Barnicle. I've tried wifi, BT and USB tethering and nothing works. The closest I get is witht he built in hotspot and Wifi Tether, both of which I can get it to see my fascinate but it gets hung up on "obtaining an IP..." Barnicle didn't work at all because I couldn't get infrastructure mode, only ad hoc. I can't use Wireless Tether with BT because for some reason this option is greyed out. I've also tried going legit and paying though VZW but that didn't work.
I've read the thread about reprovisioning my fascinate with qpst or something but can't figure out how to do it. I have a feeling my biggest problem is MIUI or my kernel. Can anyone suggest a kernel and/or ROM for my Fascinate that will allow me to sucesfully tethter?
Any other than the muiu or cm7 mtg builds should work. Those builds are very different from our source built stuff.

[Q] WIFI tether completely broken

I have a droidX with liquid ICS 1.62,
android version 4.0.4,
and kernel version 2.6.32.9-g34b306d
i have tried every possible method i have found to get wifi tethering working, its to give my nexus 7 wifi on the train
I'm able to tether with bluetooth, but because there's no wifi connection various apps dont "see" the internet and ignore it.
so i need wifi tethering
BUT IT WONT FREAKIN WORK. :crying::crying:
more specifically, no matter what i try, nothing can see the wifi tethering signal of my phone, its as if nothing is there at all.
it'd tried; Foxfi, PDAnet, wifi tether for root users, barnacle tether...
i'm completely at witts end here, ask me any question you need and i'll answer in as much detail as needed
anyone? at all?
if you need any more information, i can provide it
guess not
i'll probably have to drop back down to CM7, it looks like every single ics or jb rom for the droidx has this dumb issue. thanks verizon
wait, nevermind, got it working again somehow
after flashing back to stock liquidICS 1.62 i found it working again
i tried to underclock the phone so i could leave it in my pocket running wifi all day, but apparently under OR overclocking the phone AT ALL breaks tethering, dont ask me how or why.
if you change the clock speed at all, you need to reboot before using tether
