Hey, yes, I know there are already several threads about this but I am a bit confused. My Set up: CDMA Hero CM 6.1 stable. Me being a newb for the most part to all of this...I just found out the other day...after have a rooted phone for about 6 months...that my hero can do wireless tether. So I installed the app and bam...works like a charm, immediately after installing and running for the first time, my ps3 DID detect and connect to my phone wirelessly. I even played a round of free-for-all on Black Ops to test it out and it worked great. Now today I had some down time so I figured I'd play some COD...but now my ps3 is NOT detecting or connecting with my phone. WTF!? I should also mention that after installing wireless tether on my wife's rooted EVO(froyo), I was also able to connect through her EVO on the PS3. Haven't tried using the Evo again as it's currently not in front of me. Just curious why it worked then and not now, or why it even worked at all if the PS3 supposedly doesn't pick up ad-hoc?(From what I've gathered, Wireless Tether uses AdHoc) I do have full EasyTether, which I was using before I discovered WT, so I'm not SOL, but I was hoping to finally be able to eliminate the cords and wires and what not. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
*EDIT*
Wife just got back home, grabbed her evo, and what do you know...ps3 connects with no issues...so now I have to figure out what happened or what I did to my phone to "F" it up. I am running DroidWall...the firewall is disabled, wireless tether is checked on whitelist, but this was the case when my phone was connected to the ps3 before, but I'm thinking that perhaps this or some other app is interfering. Anything I should make sure is allowed or denied data access? I'm at a loss.
^Bump^ Please...any ideas
Hi,
I have the wifi-only XOOM (nonrooted) and a rooted HTC EVO. I can pair and connect each device with another blue-tooth device, so I know that both have blue-tooth working.
I can't get the Xoom and EVO to connect via blue-tooth. It says "paired but not connected" and when I try to click on it to connect it, nothing will happen (on other items it will search...then connect). The only options available to me are rename device and unpair.
I've rebooted, nothing works. I've tried the instructions for tethering, and just trying to get the blue-tooth connection to work.
1. Has anyone successfully paired the wifi only xoom with the evo?
2. Any ideas or suggestions for me?
Thanks. This is really frustrating because the tethering is the reason I bought the wifi only xoom.
Edit: I thought I typed this, but it is not showing. Somewhere on XDA are the instructions for wireless tethering, (sorry don't have link handy) and I have followed them. Doesn't work.
I rooted my EVO with CM7 and the Hotspot software came pre-installed. I just tether to my xoom with that, no problems. It's pretty fast on 3G.

My EVO has Myn’s Warm TwoPointTwo - [RLS 5 - 01/07/2011] which has the wireless tether built in. Is your xoom rooted or non? Mine is not.
yeah, it would be great if someone could figure out how to tether via bluetooth with an EVO to the Xoom; my wife has a non rooted evo, and a wifi only xoom, and wishes she could tether..
My rooted EVO does wifi tether easily to the xoom, but, it wont tether via bluetooth either; it shows "paired", but never connected..
Anyone figured this out yet?
thanks
same here. I have rooted Evo with vaelpak 3.2 on it and the wifi tether app works great but I can't get Bluetooth to tether at all. I hear that is a faster connection so I want to try it but the is no option to tether after clicking the wrench

I have the same problem running a rooted evo with MYN 2.2 RLS5. Paired but not connected is the only thing I can get. I download the newest wireless tether app and could not get it to work.
I can can tether using Wireless tether using an open connection but when I try to encrypt I cannot get it to work. I sure would like a fix before my trial runs out on the xoom.

I do not have an EVO, I have a droid OG , but ran into a similar problem. I made a video on the subject. I apologize if this does not work for you but try it out. I recommend unpairing your devices first and start where the video starts. I had to unpair to get mine working. Since your rooted it shouldn't be a problem and take a minute to try it out.

if your phone is rooted, its super easy to tether via wifi; hundreds of posts all over this board and the internet about it.
its tethering via bluetooth that doesnt seem to work on an evo..

Thank you but I never receive the part that says tethering under the wrench, it only says unpair and rename device.

Thanks, I find all of the tether wifi posts, and I can do that. I thought I had seen that some evo users were able to tether by bluetooth, but maybe not. Maybe when the sd card slot patch comes out it will fix it.
Hey guys, hoping for some help. I have MIUI installed on my Infuse, and have used the wireless tethering function on my phone a lot with no issues. I'm pretty sure it's the one AT&T built into the phone. There's also an option to tether via USB, and when I turn it on it says tethered, but on my computer there is no indication of such. I'm trying to do this on OS X 10.7.2. I could be missing something fairly simple, but I haven't been able to figure this one out.
bump please??
So here is the deal. I have read thru a bunch of forums and having trouble finding an answer. The question I have is, I have an Evo 4g laying around NOT ACTIVAVTED, how do I use the phone as a webcam on my wifi network at home and remote view it on 3g/4g on my gnex? Everything I have found allows you to use the phone as a webcam but only let's you view the cam if on the same wifi network. I need something for when I'm at work so I can log on and just check in. Also, my computer is not working correctly so hooking anything up to the PC is out of the question. Thanks for any and all responses

Maybe this plus this? Haven't tried it myself.
Hi folks I want to share my mobile data with my car head unit, unfortunately I can't connect. I am on tmobilr and my phone is not rooted. I tried using PdaNet, but my head unit cant find the connection.
My old phone galaxy s6 was connecting just fine.
My brothers galaxy s8 cant be connected either.
I want to share my lte with my device, but at the moment I cant. Anyone can tell me why or how to fix it? Or any other apps? Pdanet cant be the only one who can do that. Thats in advance!
p.s. I would like to stay rooted.
Wrong section. You might have better luck in the correct one

Any help? If PdaNet can do it, there must be some other apl.
