Wifi tether phone to phone [mytouch3g to vibrant] - Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]

Is this possible? I have hunted forever for this because I play BIA2 and want to play online but its only available thru wifi. Id just stick my sim into the mytouch and fire up wifi tether [or barnacle] and connect with my vibrant running the game. Id love to find out if this is possible.

It's possible, I've done this between a droid x and galaxy tab you'll need to get your hands a little dirty, follow the instructions at this link

faking the data plan as wifi?

some games like gameloft require a wifi connection to download the data...the problem is I have a 7.2mgbs data plan conc so how can I use it instead of wifi...is there a way do fake my plan as a wifi connection?

I don't think they require it, just that they recommend using wifi. I have downloaded some games from gameloft myself and I had no problem using 3g.

asphalt 6 for example has only the wifi option to download the data I can't by 3g

Someone please have a legit answer to his question. I want to play Order and Chaos via 3/4G!!
Have you tried turning on wifi tether and see if it tricks the game to think you are on wifi and not 3g. just a dumb idea but it might work.
You could always go to a "shady" site and download the SD card data via PC. Or I suppose you could have a friend setup their phone as a wifi hotspot so that you could download that way.
These are all workarounds but...if one want's to play Order and Chaos via 3/4g
I have a phone and a tab and can tether my tab and play but ideally this would be nice to be able to accomplish with one device on it's own. Someone has to be clever enough to code a way to make apps think there is a valid connection, probably some iptables wizardry and place the wifi adapter into loopback mode if possible.

Way to see who's connecting to my hotspot?

I 'm using an HTC inspire and I'm chilling in an airport and I decided to turn on my wireless hotspot and left it unpassworded. Is there any app for me or any method where I can find which ips and how many people are connecting to it? I'm not 100% sure what to type into Google so I thought someone could help me out.
Also if anyone can give me some terms to Google or articles for further info that'd be awesome. Thanks.

I had a app that was a sort of wifi analyzer it did list by Number I.D. who was leeching off of my open source...... I do not remember the actual name but there is an app out there for that.

Sounds kinda shady since you can add a password to the hotspot

Tmobile and wifi tethering...

Has anyone else gotten a message that this will be blocked if the service isnt added???
And if anyone can explain how this is something different that can be charged for if it is a feature of the phone... Using the same unlimited data...

Not sure about that, but if you want wifi tethering, look up barnacle wifi tether in the market.

You want this.

If it keeps up, go to your apn settings and create a new one with the apn internet2.voicestream.com and you should be able to bypass the tethering message. If you keep it by default, mms will fail with that apn. You should be able to set the epc apn for mms only and the other for internet. something like that.
You can also try internet3.voicestream.com also. Speeds vary for the two apn's based on my experience.

Yes, Tmobile has an additional package you must purchase to use tethering and hotspot. 15 and 10 per month, respectively.

I've used Open Garden and never gotten a message, but you can also use USB tethering and avoid any greediness from Tmobile.
Thabks for all thw suggestions everyone. I am currently trying the open garden one.

Two tmobile phones using 5gb data/ month each for over 7 months, 4gb a month from computer using mobile AP....haven't had a warning yet. I read on another thread a long time ago that people where or where not getting notices depending on their type of data use....file sharing etc...not sure if that holds true all of the time though.

My sisters phone slows down after awile, and she uses netflix for about an hour, she gets a warning but we are no where even close to 5gb download.
I just got the T-mobile $30 5GB "unlimited"/ 100 minute prepaid voice plan.
In a short test the built in wifi hotspot feature in the stock Gingerbread Settings tab seems to work. T-mobile does not offer any add-ons for tethering on this plan.
Is it safe to use this built in feature, or should I be looking for some other app (open garden?) to do this?
nope this is what my dad uses and works great. if you have problems with it then get an alternative wifi tether.
clockworkmod tether is still in beta but I have it on my phone and it works great. google it. the software package you install on your pc installs the apk on your phone.
Me and my wife have been using the mobile AP for over a year and we just upgraded to ginger bread and now when we use it we get a message telling us we have to upgrade our plan and then next time we try to use it the Web will not work it just sends you to Tmobile. We tried downloading pda net from the market but you still can't go to sights that require passwords. It would be nice to find a way around this.

I actually got that message twice (on stock, never since running custom ROMs), but they never followed through. Of course I don't use my phones data for my laptop often, only on rare occasion and usually not for more than a few minutes.

Tmobile can kiss my rear end on this one, they certainly did NOT have a tethering plan when I purchased the phone and its rediculouse to try to charge me now for a feature that was on the phone and free for the longest time now

As does PDANet, I've been using that since my Treo 650 and the paid version is worth every penny.

Are you talking about the market giving you a warning that the file may be too large to download over mobile data? If so, I got that message for World of Goo (~50mb; had wifi symbol in market) and I just pressed OK and it started downloading over 4G.

I have a fix for this. It just depends on what your trying to do with the wifi.

What you asked is impossible (to trick the phone and make it think its connected)
Create wifi access point with your phone and then connect there!
Thats what you want and what problaly dont working but use search...in Neo or Arc forum is 1thread and long discussion how and is it possible.

Is that even possible? My phone disables wifi when making a hot spot also i'm sure since the wifi is being used to broadcast it can't be used to connect to any
Swyped from just about every ROM in the HD2 section
Are you talking about downloading from the market, cuz unless your carrier blocks it, I've never found anything on the market I can't download over mobile data (even if it gives me the warning dialog). If it's not in the market, I've downloaded files like 900 mb or more. Not sure what the problem is unless it's your carrier, in which case, whatever you do to trick your phone still won't trick the provider, I think.

buy a $15 wireless router. Tada.
I think he's talking about games from like gameloft and stuff, That require wifi only to download the extra game data. That's what I got from of his post at least. And to answer his question... I have no idea.

I have a fix for this. What you need to do is go to the Google Code Page for wireless tether for root users and download an older version. The newest 3.X doesn't work. Must be before the 3 update (or whatever it's at) and now you must do it exactly like this. Turn on your WiFi. Next turn on the tether and approve its root permission. Now this is the part you gotta be fast. Enabling the tether will shut off your WiFi. Before the toast pops up saying that tether has been granted root (meaning before the tether app starts tethering) you must re enable your WiFi! If you don't do it before the tether turns on it will error out. BUT if you do it right the WiFi will turn on and stay on AND the tether will be running. I don't know WHY it works but the system will now think you have WiFi. And before the trolls start coming I've USED this myself to play MANY gameloft games online without WiFi. It does work. If you have questions shoot me a PM and ill help and everything.
