Ok so I was wondering if anyone has a solution to my little problem. I had a rooted DROID x an I was running liberty rom 2.0.1 on it an my wifi tether worked perfectly on it. But now I got a DROID x2 and wifi tether wont work anymore. I was wondering what it could be? Do I need a different kernel?
First of all did you root again as you do not mention this. Make sure you have super user and su binary. If you have not, use z4root found on the internet. If you have, then many it is the app, try another.
Also you can not install a new kernel due to signed boot partition.
Ya I did root it with gingerbreak. An I already tried a bunch of wifi apps none of them seam to work.

I just got a brand new replacement evo from sprint that came with froyo 2.2 on it.
I rooted using this method
and now I am on the stock 2.2 rom that came with unrevoked pt 2. when flashing
I've installing 5 different versions of wifi tether and none of them work
windows just says "no network access"
then when I plug in USB and select "usb tether" from the dropdown
I get "error 67. Registration Failure. Your PCS Vision username and/or password may be incorrect. please try again."
I have a feeling it has something to do with this particular version of Root I did.
I have superuser access and can delete sprint apps.
but in adb shell I still see $
because last time I rooted wifi tether worked like a charm, and the stock htc usb tether also worked no questions asked.
I know I could always use pda net, but it's nice to know the phone will work out of the box with any computer.
any words of wisdom on this? should I just install some custom rom that has it built in? I rather like the stability of stock Roms.
was I supposed to flash radio? I really have no idea and have been trying to figure this out for a few hours now.
Android Version: 2.2
baseband version: 2.15.00.07.28
kernel version: 2.6.32.15-g746f4f0
software number: 3.26.651.6
browser version: Webkit 3.1
PRI version 1.40_003
Use android tether
I could never get the sprint/htc apps to work. I'm using the android wired/wireless tether apps and they work fine.
Just google android wifi tether and android wired tether, I can't post links.
So...
I have the same issue with my evo I just purchased... were you able to fix it? Neither of those programs worked for me.
Not working for me as well...
i just got my evo friday oct 15th... fresh root and wifi tether is not working, seems to want to activate the sprint tether as well, im thinking i have to load a new rom and ditch the stock rom.... in order for it to work, kinda bums me out, didnt wanna mess with the roms out there... any advice on how to remove the sprint tether app ?
wifi tether
I just recently got my evo also and was running into the same problems as yall. After lots of research and deleting stuff off of the phone that i wasnt supposed to i had to flash back to complete stock and reroot with unrevoked3. as it turns out only certain kernels work with the wifi tether. and as far as the sprint native wifi or tethered ones those you have to pay for. its an extra 30 bucks a month. the unrevoked3 method seemed to be the easiest method out. but thats just my opinion. hoped this helped out guys. oh yeah the unrevoked3 root works just fine with the wifi tether (rooted)

What process did you use? Does that include the USB tether as well?
I don't think the usb tether works with the WiFi tether. I am pretty sure it is just a wireless tether. The unrEVOked3 method I used was the latest one from the website.

I run Fresh and havn't had problems with tethering.

The USB tether fix supposedly works for wifi too. It disables authentication so you can use the stock hotspot app.
can you confirmed you have root? use the unrevoked forever method, quite easy. the next thing is install Wireless Tether for root, idk why hotspot is turning on. at this point it's useless.
if your haveing problems useing android wifi tether 2.02 on your rooted evo witch is the one offerd in Market then goto android wifi tether site and download the experimental version 2.05 copy the .apk to SD card and install it, it works great
I rooted my xoom wifi and now when I go to settings to set up my wifi, it says error instead of scanning. any fixes?
I would try reflashing the kernel.

who sounds like the kernel didn't flash right. try the post above me said chances are you just need to re push the kernel files.
how did you flash? if you used adb, you most likely did not push all the modules.... if you used cwr you may of had an error and should reflash.
lostttttt
Hello fellow xoomers, im having a problem hope some one can help me. first off i'm a noob to rooting. I have a xoom wifi running android 3.0 , kernel version is 2.6.36.3 build HRI39. I was adventurous and tried to root my xoom and needless to say it didn't go well. I honestly thought I bricked the damn thing, to my shock and welcomed surprised I was able to do a wipe and erase all the data on my device and return to factory settings. but when it went to connect to the wifi all it's saying is wifi error every thing else seems to work fine. so i was wondering should i try to re root my xoom again??? will this correct the issue i'm having with my wifi?? and can some one point me to a guide that's made for the version i'm currently running seems likes there's a million and one different types of software and you have to have the right one for the version your running or every thing goes from sugar to well you know the rest. Any help would be greatly appreciated if you need any more info please let me know. thank you all in advance.....
I have managed to get into a phone i bought with lock screen and set up my gmail acct all is good. except i dont have sim card for it yet. im on eclair and 2.1update1. can i still root this? Also im able to get apps from the market. how can i get the latest gb to get the best performance out of this? i believe this has never been rooted
You can root the phone with superoneclick, forvGB rom just follow the OP post of the rom you want to flash.

Need more info!
Is your phone rooted? Do you know what Root is? Are you running a custom ROM? What wifi-tether are u attempting to get working?
If the kernel error is true I think barnacle usually works in those cases

my phone is rooted and rom'd im running the 2.3.6 Ep4p humble 5.0
i have had this issue as well when i was running the gummycharged as well just curious as to what i have been doing wrong or if there is something i didnt install when i flashed in odin
check your root. Check the superuser app in your app drawer. also attempt to use something that requires root. Also, what app are you attempting to use for the tethering?
the app wipe cache asks for super user access and then it is granted phone also shows root access the app im using for tethering is wireless tether
I just got my xoom and thought i had 3.2 but i had 3.2.1 and when i rooted i lost wifi. Is there a way to fix this by downgrading or installing another rom?
thanks
Still no wifi after rebooting? If not then reflash the rom you flashed to get the 3.2.1

I tried that but after i re-installed everything with cmw, it turns on but i can only see boot animation...nothing happens after. I cant get in honeycomb and my pc doesnt detect the xoom so i cant use adb...helpp
I got help from somebody. Thanks guys
so what was the answer, as i have 3.2.1 and looking to root tonight
use the universal root method using ur sd card.
If you use the others, you may lose your wifi connection. You will have to re-install another rom. I suggest using the universal method.
