I cannot get wifi tethering to work on my Droid 1 when running MIUI, stock froyo, or Cyanogen. I have tried Wireless Tether on all three ROMS, I can connect to the phone, but no Internet data is transferred. I'm currently using MIUI 12.3 and found that it has a built in wifi tether that also fails. Barnacle didn't work either.
From what I can figure out this may be either a kernel issue (I never changed it from stock, but MIUI may have its own?) or a problem with how I achieved root (superoneclick). I appreciate any and all advice! Thanks!
I am curious to see what the answer is. sorry i am no help to you. but i also have a old droid that i want to mess with first before i start messing with my evo.

I am looking for an ICS rom that has a solid working Wifi-Tether program/connection/solution?
I'm a sys admin and like to work remotely...sometimes in places where there is no net connectivity.
If anybody has a suggestion for me...I am greatly appreciative!!
Even if its not ICS, I am open to downgrade until they hopefully sort it out with CM9.
Thanks everybody!
On any ICS ROM:
1) Download Barnacle and Wifi Tether for Root Users.
2) Open Barnacle, check "skip wpa supplicant" in settings, run it, then turn it off once it's closed.
3) Run Wifi Tether and connect your device to your phone.

Thanks...I understand about barnacle and skipping the wpa supplicant...but what do I do after that, because I still cannot get it to work properly??
not sure but I think VirtuousRom's primadonna might do; they say it's alpha but I use it as a daily driver and only have to reboot once a day ;-)
The latest cyanogenmod9 alpha5 by tbalden & korneyone now natively supports the wifi tethering. I've been using it for several months and the bugs are almost non-existent (certainly unnoticeable to the majority). I think the only one that most people would notice is the lack of 1080p support (but 720p still works perfectly)! There's a few others out there, but they are mainly only in the more obscure features.

Hi guys. My sensation is rooted and I am using the opengarden app to make hotspots. The thing is,it does not work all the time. My phone is rooted but the rom is stock. Is there any rom or fix that makes wifi tethering work all the time?
Most sense roms': in built wifi hotspot function is working. You could try arhd, elegancia, viper etc
ROMs are subjective, what someone else thinks is best may not suit you, so the only way to find the "best" ROM for you is to try them until you're happy.
I'm Johnny come lately and could not find thread with my question. Upgraded my i727 from cm 09 to cm 10. Also went ahead and updated it with nightly's 07. Everything went find until I tried to use WiFi tethering from Google play and code download. Tried several of 'em and still could not could not tether. I appreciate anyone's help or old thread. Tvm
SVTP working fine here.

Hi, as @Shadows... said : since your using CM10, you should not have any trouble turning wifitether on. Just turn it on in settings.
FYI, if you don't want to download any apps that will definitely give you a bunch of craps, I recommend you flash this ROM :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2074328
It's based on the stock ATT Jelly Bean, but WAY BETTER ! Lots of toggles, smart-stay....There is technically nothing different from the original leaked J.B, except this one is a lot better.
There is no hassle turning wifi-tether on !
If you don't want to flash this rom, download : Easy wifi tethering. It always works for me. But since its a free app, it gives you a lot of ads that will appear on your home screen.
tether no longer working on JB based roms?
Okay my wifi tether was working great on Mohans 5.0 ics rom, but now since upgrading to 6.1 JB, my wifi tether stop working! I tried using the native wifi tether under settigs..no luck.
What's going on guys?

yes 6.1 embryo, i'm using wifi tether for root app from the playstore.....when i turn on the wifi tether, my netbook sees the network, it won't connect to it, whether i set up a password or not.
I'll lay out the devices and then we'll go from there.
Droid 4- stock rom, rooted, running wifi tethering.
Tab 2- stock rom, rooted
Droid 2 global- CM9, CM7, and Miui rom's, rooted
Compaq laptop- vista 32 bit
Mifi 4g- no mods, just updated software
S3- stock rom, no root
iPhone 5- stock OS, no jailbreak
Ps3- just updates, no hacks
The d4 is obviously my hotspot as well as the mifi. All devices connect to the mifi without issue. All devices except the d2g connect to the d4 without issue. Occasionally the d2g will connect to the d4 without issue and run just like the tab2. I've bounced between roms on the d2g and even set it back to stock with the same results.
So the question is this- what needs to be done to improve the reliability of the wifi connection between the d2g and the d4? When connected to the mifi, the d2g acts like a brand new phone. On the d4's hotspot it's laggy and drops the connection.....other times it'll work well albeit not as well (speed and performance) as the mifi.
Suggestions? Despite the low post count tinkering with the root/ rom/ etc is not new to me. Thanks in advance.
No suggestions folks?
I have no problems using my hotspot with any custom rom i put on my phone. But any stock rom even the modded stock roms stop working after my allotted 5 gb. I have tried the hotspot fixes, changing the tether dun value to 0 and i am still blocked. I am on the 80$ unlimited t-mobile plan on the d850. I have no problems with pdanet tethered with stock. I can even make the laptop a hotspot tethered. Whats the difference and can i implement that mod alone in a stock rom?
I am a newb I admit. No script or code in my my language although I would love to speak Klingon. But it looks pretty clear that I have stumped the pros. Lol No I'm sincerely being a whole lot of not serious. But if I'm in the wrong forum... Maybe I should be in trouble shooting? Anyway I know I'm not the only person frustrated by wanting to use LG stock apps and not being able to use the Hotspot unlimited as done with a custom rom. No worries. I will chase the solution down.
