WiFi Tether working on DarchLegend v4.1 ROM

Hi all just wanted to let everyone know that I got Wireless tether to work on DarchLegend v4.1 ROM. I attached the APK file and all you need to do is put it on the root of your SD card and use package installer to install.
NOTE: In order for it to work correctly though you need to go into Settings>Wirless & networks> disable Mobile networks, then start wirless tether and go back in and re-enable Mobile network.
If anyone has any problems, please post and I will try to explain better.

worked for me with Damage 1.0! Thanks!
Just the WiFi Encryption doesn't work, so make sure you do access control.

Works for me as well on Darch4.1. It's easier to access the Mobile Network setting by holding down the red power key and selecting there.

Just use the latest stable version 1.6. No workaround needed. Works the first time, every time.
All the 2.0 versions are experimental for a reason.

1.6 works good for me on DarchLegend 4.1 out of the box, no mobile on/off or anything like that. I only tested wide open access, no encryption or authentication setup.

Does encryption work with any of the wifi tethers?

Thanks it's working does Encryption work any version?
EDIT: how do you use acces control. Whenever I connect I see my computer, and I check it to make sure it's authorized. Then I tested unchecking it to make deathuriazed, and it can still connect and use Internet?

no tethering windows Xp

just tried tethering my nexus s to my work desk top to be "off grid" but i'm having issues.
I cant for the life of me tether the NS to the computer (running windows xp -32bit).
i was able to do this fine on the n1, but no go on the nexus. the computer just doesn't recognize it.
I've down loaded the tetherxp.inf file, but when point the setupwizard to it, it can't find it.
wth??????
then i start doing to research and read that the NS tethering isn't supported by window xp?? just win7, win vista and linux???
is this true???
what have you guys been experiencing?

unplug device, uninstall device from device manager plug back in and when it asks to install, point it at the usb driver folder

didn't help. oi!!!
still getting the "the hardware was not installed because the wizard cannot find the necessary software" pop up.
i'm giving up on this.
the tether function is "on" on the phone, but my comp doesn't recognize the connection in the network settings.
sucks as i'm trying this on a fresh XP os installed notebook. so i don't know what could be causing this... (yess all updates have been updated)...
slowz, you're able to tether with your NS to xp?

no problemo

This definitely isn't working with Windows XP.
This worked fine with my Nexus One. I had to install tetherxp.inf for it to work.
With the Nexus S, I removed all devices, uninstalled the drivers and started from scratch. No go with either the tetherxp.inf file or the RAR file posted earlier in this thread.
I can't find any other documentation on the Net that shows that Nexus S can tether with Windows XP.
Has anyone gotten this to work?

try this...
go to the PDAnet website http://www.junefabrics.com/android/index.php download their software onto your computer(free), then follow the directions on the screen. it will install the latest drivers onto your computer. i had to do that with my work computer too.

Well, I did that and now I just have a copy of PDSNet on my machine
I still can't get XP to recognize my Nexus S. When I plug it in I still get the New Hardware box that asks to find software for USB Device.

What I did was to add entries to tetherxp.inf for Nexus S which matched the signatures in device manager after I connected my phone to xp and turned on usb tether. I then installed the driver from tetherxp.inf.

you are on the latest service pack right?

Yep, I'm on XP Pro SP3.

screenshots?

Is there any way to take screenshots? I'm running vegan 5.1

If you get the Android SDK installed on Windows, it has a tool called DDMS:

You can use DDMS to take screenshots:

agreed, as of now that's about it. Most here have tried EVERY screenshot app available and they just produce black screens (trying to save you some time).

Thanks ill give it a try

I've tried to use screen grabbers I've found on the market, non of them worked properly - all creating black image.

Any help available on why DDMS (or ADB for that matter) does not see my G-Tab? I have USB Debugging enabled (conected) and I can see the "SD" card?
Thanks!

Just installing the SDK is not enough
the USB driver needs to be configured to allow the SDK to communicate with the device. The default driver just allows for removable drive functionality.

or Try Adbwiress, so you don't need to connect via USB.
and on your computer , type adb connect <G-Tab Ip>

Wow, how did I not know about this? I spent an hour setting up adb for my Gtab because of driver issues last week. I ended up having to use USBdeview to zap the previous drivers to get it to run.
Thanks for this great tip!

[APP] USB Mode apk - Host or Slave

I found this neat program a while back. it installs inyour phone as any apk would. and you can configure it toact as a slave or master. Basically you can plug in you therabytes of porn into your phone and it will see it a storage, Enjoy

I used to use it on my Vega.
I changed it for a Xoom, but cannot use it on it. The wheel just spins on and on..
Edit: Do I need to be rooted to use it?

Reverse usb tethering(sharing internet connection on ur pc to i9003) beta 3

I found this helpful information to share with you
This guide will only work if you have rooted your device and with a Windows PC. We will not be liable for any damages arising from your use of this guide. Use the presented information at your own risk.
Remember that the tool is still beta software, so expect a lot of kinks and bugs. You can surf using Google Chrome, Firefox, Opera, or Dolphin Browser,GOOGLE PLAY MARKET although Google Chrome complains of not having an Internet connection even though it works. Ping and low-level ICMP packets don’t seem to work either.
Requirements
A rooted Android phone
Desktop or laptop computer running Windows
Working broadband Internet connection on the desktop or laptop
Android Software Development Kit (SDK) installed on the desktop or laptop (optional but recommended)
Instructions
1) Download the reverse tethering tools from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=829285&d=1324833033 and save the file to your computer. The ZIP file contains AndroidTool.exe (Android USB Tunnel tool for your Windows machine), ADB, and the Android APK (Beta Android USB Tunnel tool for your Android phone).
2) Extract the ZIP file to a folder on your computer.
Enable USB debugging on your phone by going to Settings > Applications > Development > USB Debugging.
3) Go to the folder where you extracted the ZIP file’s contents.
Run AndroidTool.exe.
Connect your phone to your PC using a USB cable.
In the Android USB Tunnel window, click on the Refresh Devices button.
From the list on the right of the detected devices, select a Domain Name Server (DNS) to use.
4) Click the Show Android Interface button. This will install the app and other needed binaries to your phone.
If the Superuser app on your phone asks whether to allow “USB Tunnel,” choose to allow the app. If the process crashes after receiving Superuser rights, close the Android USB Tunnel Windows application and repeat the procedure from the start.
5) Click on the Connect button on the Android USB Tunnel window on your computer.
6) Again, if the Superuser app on your phone asks, choose to allow “USB Tunnel.”
Congratulations! You have successfully reverse-tethered your Android phone to your PC.
