Hi I'm new to xda, although I'v used the forum before for help with rooting and such but i recently got a wifi model of the xoom and I wanted to use the wireless tether app on my rooted epic but when i scan on my xoom nothing comes up, I know it tethering because it shows up on my laptop and I think the issue is frequency. I think the xoom only works with 2.5ghz and up and my epic only tethers at a max of 2.48ghz does anyone know if theres anyway around this so i can connect my xoom to my epics wifi any input would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,

Well i have my transformer and i wanted to be able to connect it to my phone but my phone is only provifig ad hoc conection. I was wondering if thereis a way around this. I was told that rooting the device might makeit easier. I woudnt mind rooting the device(if possible since it is a us version)but if there is another way for me to get wifi access through my phone i will take it.
I have a touch pro 2

Thanks guys
rooting wont help it recognize ad-hoc, what you can do is do a bluetooth tether instead of wifi.

Thanks....is there an app on how to do this? Im used to just wifi tether and ive never blueooth tether before. Ive looked at my bt setting and everytime i get them to pair the only option i have is for my phone to use the transformer as an internet access which is the total oposite of what i want to do.
yes, how do you do Bluetooth Tether?
I have my SGS running Wireless Tether Root, on BT tether mode. But the Asus Transformer can't see the PAN tether service after I pair the phone and tablet.

Does your phone have wifi hotspot capability? If so root it and turn it into a wifi rounter. Then you just connect to the phone as a wifi device. That's what I do. Not on the TF yet but with netbooks, ipads and an archos gen 8 tablet.

Oops thats a new Winmo phone isnt it? I can do it but you'll be charged for it.

The Wifi Tether for root users creates an Ad-Hoc network. Android devices (your tablet) cannot connect to Ad-Hoc networks.
The built in wifi tethering (when the hardware supports it) creates an infrastructure network - which any android device can connect to.
I have a hero and it's rooted. I'm using the wireless tether but for some reason I can't see it with my xoom? but on my laptop I can see it and i've successfully connected it. Does anyone have this problem or am I just not doing something right.
US 3g 3.1 Motorola xoom stock (no root)
Your phone needs to emit infrastructure, not ad hoc.........
I had the same problem until I switched apps. I use Open Garden Wifi Tether now and that fixed the problem for me.

If your Xoom is rooted just flash the .zip in my signature and it will see the ad-hoc network your phone puts out.
I see upon re-reading your post you are not rooted... Root your Xoom... lol
never !! hahah and qsg001, i'll try it out thanks
I guess I should have mentioned that your phone has to be rooted to run the Open Garden WIFI Tether app (at least it does on my Motor Droid).
Hello all, I am curious if someone might be able to answer and maybe solve my bluetooth tether in 4g.
My xoom is currently on Moray 2.2.1..It is a verizon 3g(no data plan).I was connecting bluetooth through my moto droid x for months. Well, got a Bionic the other day and when I tested to see if the bionic would share date thru bluetooth it worked...I was happy. Well, I tried to connect today out of my area and it wouldn't connect for the live of me...when I got back home and tried it again it worked. Thats when it hit me. My xoom isn't connect to my bluetoothed data while in town cause it was in a 4g area...as soon as it goes 3g it connects...
okay, so enough with the long story..here's the question:
When paired and connected between xoom and bionic, does the xoom literally use the 3g signal through the radiol? Or is it just connecting through software?
And if It is software, can I flash the lte radio software image from the HLK75 build that has been posted?
I wasn't planning on getting the 4g radio hardware upgrade, but if it uses the radio, looks like i'll have to..
Thanks in advanced.
Hey everyone. I currently am using the 1/22 Xoom zone 3g/4g from on my Xoom cause I can't seem to find a wifi only version. I was wondering if I can run the 3g/4g version without a problem. Everything seems fine but I just want some input from u guys
Thanks HTCluva
