If you want to pay for it. The apps you can download like wirelesstether require root.

Root your dang phone! Don't be scared.

Even after you root your phone, there is still currently no way to turn the X2 into a wireless access point for free. You CAN set up an ad-hoc connection if your other device supports that. Most do not, except for a laptop running Windows 7.
However, there are MANY other advantages to rooting your phone, and it's not that hard to do.

I am rooted running eclipse.2 rom and tether using wireless tether to my windows xp laptop. Works great no issues. Google wirelesstether.apk for the app.

I will agree. Rooting your phone is key. If for nothing else but to delete the bloat apps with titanium backup. You can also create backups, tweak memory, run scripts. But mostly tether for free.

Root to unlock the full potential of your X2.

I know the advantages of rooting, I've had a og DROID, DROID 2 and DROID x all rooted and flashed, I just haven't really felt the need to root atm

Not an ad-hoc connection, huh? Is it the Eclipse ROM that's enabling you to do that?

PDA Net And EasyTether Are Both Free And Paid Apps For Non-Rooted Users.

It is an add hock connection, but works fine on xp. I even use my work vpn login with no issues.

What are your settings please?

I have successfully tethered my non-rooted stock Nook Tablet to my HTC Amaze 4G with both WPA and no security
I had to enable ad-hoc wifi first as per instructions here: (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1370955) before I could connect to my Nokia N8 using joikuspot.
It seems that other people have managed to use another software to create a non-adhoc wifi network, but I think it's good to apply the patch and keep your options open.

They are different for each phone so you have better luck hoping over to the forum for yours and asking over there or checking to see if they have it already set up. Like I said I have a lowend samsung galaxy Prevail here from boostmobile.
I have a rooted NT and am new to tethering (great option since my wife has a Blackberry Bold (Verizon) that her company pays for). Seems like Barnacle and WIfi Tether are the two most used. Any recommendations as to which would be better for a noob?

Leaked ics problems???

I was just seeing if anyone else has had any problems. When i play temple run my finger Swypes don't seem too be recognized correctly. Also i installed bootstrap and it worked fine and i made a backup. But has anyone tried restoring a back up?
Sent from my ICS DROID RAZR using xda premium
Yes there's touch issues with Temple Run and Running Fred.
Cut the Rope force closes too.
Restoring backups doesn't work afaik.
I've noticed that swipe actions on Temple Run don't work well also I had Can Knock Down and no swiping works at all with that. As far as bootstrap not sure I lost root when updating.

Did you try rerooting with voodo. Also for those with root what are you using for tethering? I tried doing the sqlite and changing the entitlement value to 0 but it wouldn't let me change it

The 4G data just decided to not come on at all so i've been stuck on 3g the whole time with the droid razr xt912. Thankfully i have a older 4g phone as a backup. I checked my mobile data settings which i tried global and LTE/CDMA, I also Backed up root and completely formatted it still doesn't work and i even drove to a verizon store for a new sim card thinking that might be the problem but still it doesnt come up.

I would try it out but the phone is having problems. I tried to use matt's utility for Droid razr Jellybean and seeing if installing a back up system would work but im not having any luck with it so I hope you can help me out
Sometimes it is just the local network. I had a phone replaced under warranty once because the network was down for an evening.

Wireless tether on Razr?

Hi,
Is there a way to turn on the wireless tether without paying the $30 a month? If so do I have to root my phone? and will this void my warranty?
Thanks
Oh, I'm all set. Thanks!
What did u do?

Root your phone and use this app on Google play called "WiFi Tether for Root".

Get foxfi and buy the key for it. If you don't want to root it.
