[Q] EasyTether or PdaNet USB Tether - HTC Droid DNA

Can anyone confirm that either of these works?

I don't have a DNA yet to test it, but they should work. Under the FCC ruling on Verizon's use of the 700mHz band (the band they use for 4G), Verizon can't take any actions that in any way restrict what apps the customers use, and also can not restrict tethering in any way. If it is blocked, then Verizon will have some major explaining to do to the FCC. (they already had to pay a 1.25 million dollar fine over this, so the FCC is serious)

I sure hope so since none of the WiFi options seem to be working.

They block foxfi wireless, so doubt that is true. I know on my tbolt foxfi is blocked but pdanet works.

dsb9938 made a thread saying that he got wifitether to work.

It isn't possible to put the changed files in place, but i can't remember which dev (either leoisright or xhausx) said the edited tether is ready to be pushed to the system as soon as we do get root.
Another thing I've heard though is that usb tether works without having to pay (and without unlock/root). I heard that the pay service is just for the wireless tether. I haven't verified but let me know if that works for you.

Easytether works just fine for usb tether. Just used it for awhile.

I randomly found a USB tether app on the Market called "Klink" and it seems to cap your bandwidth to 1 MBit.. peaking at 2MBit at highest. If you need tethering now I'd suggest PDANet or EasyTether. I've not tested PDANet on the 3vo yet, but I'd bet it'd work fine. It's not worth my $15 though....
PDAnet works used it earlier

Thanks. I was wondering if this would work. ROOT would be nice, but this will satisfy until an exploit is available.
Really unless you are tethering to multiple devices or a device without usb, usb tether is the way to go.

I have to agree with the post a few above this one. This question really has nothing to do with development. Hopefully he just posted in the wrong section by accident

Try to connect and see what it says, if they are going to charge you they have to tell you first. You will get a message similar to : You have not signed up for this service, to add it to your account call or go online today.
If you don't get the message than Sprint might be offering free for a limited time to get you hooked on it. If we don't get root, they may have a lot of new tether customers.

[Q] Wifi hotspot without rooting??

So my buddy just got this phone and he's saying foxfi no longer works for him(from what I've read this seems to be accurate).
He's on an unlimited plan with Verizon and he's wanting me to root his phone tonight so he can get a hotspot app... Before I root it i wanted to make sure 1. That there isn't any hotspot apps that work with the DNA without rooting and 2. I wanted to make sure there are some hotspot apps that work after root. I've been researching and it sounds like most people are saying you're sol unless you go to a share every thing plan through Verizon.
Thanks for the info!
I want to know exactly the same thing. I need internet for my tablet. I'd rather not root, but I will if something works for sure after that.

I did this for someone's Verizon Galaxy Note II the other day. There's a modified version of Wifi Tether in the instructions, but you might be able to get away with just copying the settings used here. Let me know if it helped.

I am not rooted. 100% stock. I have not unlocked this phone. I unlocked my first one and then it died several days later of a hardware failure and so I am waiting this time to make sure this new device is solid.
All I do is go to settings>more>Mobile Network Sharing>Turn on Mobile Hotspot. I setup the wifi there and then connect with my tablet.
Perhaps its because i am on the Share Everything Plan?

Yep, you can't WiFi tether on stock with the unlimited plan, but you can if you have a limited/shared plan

[Q] Newbie on tethering on the DNA - Fees? App?

Hello,
I'm probably trading my S3 for a DNA.
FoxFi works great on my S3 even after the latest official firmware update.
I currently have a 2GB plan with no tethering. I'd like to make sure tethering can be done on the DNA without any additional fees. From what I've been told it does not support foxfi but has built in hotspot.
Any details would be helpful before I make the switch.
Thanks!
Built in didn't work well for me, but a play store version does. You can definitely do it.

I was doing the same thing and read a little bit about someone getting it to go but causing problems for mms. i believe it was deodex* only so far the mod is for.
So far Wifi Tether Router is working 100%. Anyone wanting wifi tether ability without paying $10 for all the other tether apps should but this $2 app instead works perfect.
i have bought wifi pda net in the past but it has never really supported the wifi part its always been usb tether. the price for this app was perfect for me to try it out so thought id vouch for its use on 4.4 kitkat update.
