You need to be more descriptive. What tethering app were you using? If it is wifi tether what were your settings?

If you're in public make sure to use a security method and check access control so other people can't jump on your tether. If you enable access control you have to allow the connection either by selecting it in the pull down or from the menu of the tether.

No WiFi tether on BMAF RezRom V1.4

I can't seem to get WiFi tether to work on the RezRom1.2. I have the beta version that everyone uses and the settings are correct. It just says "starting wireless tether" and after 5 minutes starts with errors and does not work. I do notice that superuser never asks for permission during the apps opening. I have tried reinstalling the Rom several times as well as the app . Help

In addition to this if SuperSU does not all you to "grant" access for Wifi Tether, go into SuperSu settings and change default action from "Promt" to "Grant".

Eternety rom Wi-Fi teathr

I just switched from dad bamf 4.9 to eternity 8-4 on my HTC Thunderbolt. When I try the Wi-Fi hotspots it shows the network is connected, but won't connect to the internet. Is this a known bug that has a fix, or do I have to keep switching roms to use the hotspots?
Also, is there an over locking app to boost the processor?
Thank-you
Kyle

What are your wifi hot spot settings currently? If you're restoring the settings from tibu that could be why it doesn't work. You may try updating the app.

You mean like the security settings in the hotspot app? The security, user name, and PW are all the same as before I loaded the new rom. My kindle fire shows that it's connected to the hotspot, I'm just not getting any internet signal. How would I update the app?
Thank you

Edit: Ok So I downloaded an app called WiFi Tether v3.2 from
http://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether/downloads/list
there's other versions, but I got the newest. It opens and says it's operational, but on my Kindle, it just keeps saying "obtaining IP address" and won't connect... I have the credentials the same as they were in the stock hotspot app.
You probably need to change the device profile. I don't know whet the kindle uses but try setting it to Google nexus one. Also make sure routing fix is checked

I set the device profile to "Thunderbolt (CDMA/LTE)," changed the channel to 10, and clicked the "Routing Fix" radio button. It's working! However, it will stop working after a while, then I have to reboot my phone to get it to start again. Thank you so much for your Help, disconnecktie.
Are you currently using the Eternity InfectedROM? If you are using it, or are pretty familiar with the ROM, I have a couple more general questions about it.
Thanks Again.
I ran it for about 2 months. I prefer the r248 build over the newer ones. What's the question? Oh and make sure you change your wifi sleep policy to never and that might help with the connection issues you're having.

WiFi Tether 4.1.2

Running rooted stock ROM. I've tried the Wi-Fi Tether beta app and and stable app. I've adjusted the settings for each according to other posters. Still can't get tethering to work. I'm coming from the razr maxx which I was able to change value of entitlement check to use native hotspot. Is this possible on the note 2? Apart from paying for foxfi, what is everyone else doing?

I have used Treve mod's wifi tether for years...works perfectly on the note 2. Get the APK here http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=9390169635556426686 and then here are the settings I use:
Device Profile: Galaxy S3 (closest to the note)
Change setup method: Netd-Ndc (master)
Sent Netd Max Client Cmd: check
Enable wifi encryption: check (set your password)
Wifi driver reload: check (only the first one, not reload 2)
Routing fix: check (might already be defaulted that way)
Thanks guys. I believe I've tried both of those. Must be operator error. I'll try them again.

I have mine set same as tfly except I have driver reload 2 checked instead of 1. Also, I tried at first and it didn't work on VZW remix which uses koush superuser...found a thread somewhere that suggested switching to supersu; I did that and now it works flawlessly. So try super su if you haven't, it might make a difference.

WiFi Tether on Rooted OTA VRUAME7

I rooted my OTA VRUAME7 Verizon S4 but can't seem to get wifi tether to work. I've tried both of the newest Wifi Tether for Root (3.3 beta 2 and 3.4 experimental 1). Changing the device-profile to S4 doesn't help. It will start up and say "started with errors." Checking the log results in a "no log file" error.
I also hunted around with SQLite Editor trying to find an entitlement check, and came up empty (to use the built-in mobile hotspot).
Has anyone successfully figured out how to WiFi Tether on a rooted OTA VRUAME7?
Thanks in advance! :good: :good:
To add the hotspot toggle:
Download app => Click Me
Got to => Settings storage
Click => settings.db
Click => system
Search for "notification"
Highlight => notification_panel_active_app_list
Click the edit "pencil"
In the "value" section add "WiFiHotspot;" anywhere you like...
Restart phone
Note: Make sure your list ends with a semi-colon
If you see the warning screen, just hit home.

I'm not referring to a toggle. I'm referring to successfully sharing my 4g with another device using wifi tethering.

That's what this mod does...adding the toggle enables the hotspot. Just hit home if you see the Verizon warning to bypass it. Works, just used it on my S4.

Could it be any easier? So the only danger here is exceeding your data limit?

[Q] unable to get wifi tether to work

I'm running the viper rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2124391
I've tried using 4 different tether apps including foxfi, the spring hotspot and wifi tether 3.2 pre2
None of them work. At worst the wifi connection doesn't even show up in the list of wifi networks. At best it starts to connect and if i have no encryption, says it's obtaining an IP address and never gets past that (the app shows a connected device at this point) or if i have encryption enabled, it doesn't get past authenticating.
I also saw a post about editing the build.prob to have ro.ril.transmitpower = true - tried doing that as well to no effect.
In the wifi tether app i tried using the two generic ics profiles. I tried it with mms clamping and route fix on and off - no good.
Can anyone please offer me some suggestions on how to fix this or at least narrow down what the issue is?
Thanks
Try this version

Thanks - where is this from originally? Sorry - just being a little paranoid - like to know what i'm installing
oh well - no luck. tried running this one under a couple of the available device profiles, including both generic ics profiles and auto - it wont even show up under the list of available networks no matter which profile i select.

I had the same problem but all you have to do is turn off access control and it should work.:fingers-crossed:

access control was off - even if it was on it should give me a prompt to accept the connection or not.
I had to do a full wipe of my phone and reinstall the rom - i wish i knew what it was that messed it up so i can avoid doing it again.
