Wifi Tether working on EP3H Humble 4.22

I'm running Humble 4.22 and got wifi V 3.1 Beta 6 working on my Charge. To make this work, I had to change the device profile to the Samsung Fascinate and also change the setup method to Softap for Samsung (master). After these two changes, it works like a champ. I'm sure many people already knew this, but in case you didn't and want wifi tether to work on the latest GB rom, here you go.

No problem, original post updated.

This allows for 4G tethering or just 3G?

3 or 4G. What ever your phone is connected to. I was on 4G myself and was just as fast as my home internet.

might want to try wifi tether 3.0 pre 12.
worked much better then 3.1. wifi tether would lock up after every use on 3.1. you couldn't turn it on, off, back on and still work right. only would get fixed by rebooting. 3.0 pre 12 doesnt have this issue. you can turn on,off,on,off, etc with no reboots.
This was discussed in several previous threads but if you have issues like explained above try 3.0 pre 12.

I'm going to give 3.0pre12 a try but I've been using 3.1 for a while now. In most cases, a quick wifi toggle would let enable and disable tethering multiple times without reboot.
Edit: not that I use humble, just my experience with any rom so far.

Q&A thread for ICS roms

Forum to discuss the different roms available for the Xoom since we have more than one now.

One thing I haven't seen mentioned was support for adhoc phone to tablet tethering. I'm using the Eos rom, is there something I can do to make it work or does tthis require drivers that are currently unavailable?
Thanks in advance!

looking for home icon on ics browser
Does anyone know if there is a homepage icon in the new ics browser. It's not in favorites where it used to be nor on the new browser menu.

The Honeycomb Tiamat build has ad-hoc support built in. It basically involves modifying the wpa_supplicant. I didn't test it on build 6 and haven't flashed build 8 yet so I am not sure if they have modified this yet. I am sure they will eventually if they have not yet.

Regarding Zone-ICS-12.19.11-v2.1 and exchange
Howdy,
Just flashed this after wiping Dalvoc an Cache, all apps still available, as expected no cam. or 3g/4g. Question is does anybody have exchange calendar available? Syncs to gmail calendar, exchange contacts and mail sync up, but exchange calendar doesn't show in lost of available calendars. Just wondering if it' a common thing and if there is a fix yet.
Otherwise I'm going to keep running it. Calendar isn't a deal breaker for me and once a cam and mobile data works this will totally kick butt. Thanks Mike for a super build.
Post 3=7 more to fo for the dev forums..... WooHoo

Will we see the camera and mic working soon?

My phone is a bit old (motorolla cliq), but I have tried with the wifi tether included with my rom/kernel by adlxmod and also with barnacle. Both of these worked with tiamat/morray I had previously on my Xoom. I really like the ICS builds by EOS, and if my tether would work I will never return to HC!

I guess they removed it because I don't have it either. Why they removed it?, no idea.

Notes Traveler
has somebody expeinrience with (lotus) notes traveler? Does it work with ics? I am thinking about giving ics a try
Thx for short feedback!

Does anyone know if the 1000 track playlist limit in Music/Honeycomb has been fixed? I know Gingerbread doesn't have the limitation, hoping they have fixed it in ICS.

Wireless Tether on CM10 vzw

Does anyone know a way to get wifi tether to work on CM 10 for vzw gs3? I'm running the Aug 16th CM10 build. Unlocked bootloader. Can't seem to find a wireless tether app that works. I saw that the native wifi hotspot should work in CM10 on other carriers, but it's not working for me. Anyone have a solution? Thanks.

AOSP has tethering built in. It's working for me on austen dickens latest release Just turn it on in the settings

If the native hotspot isn't working try turning security off. Worked for most on older builds. Don't know if 8-16 should work with security enabled but give it a go without security.

I see it in the settings. When I turn it on there I can connect my laptop and tablets to the network, but the internet never works. Not sure what I'd be doing wrong.

I'm also running that unofficial alpha (plus.google.com/117962666888533781522/posts/QvVGczHD5TF) and the wifi tether seems to work for me. I was able to connect via my wifi-only Kindle and use the web browser. But I've been running this rom for less than a day, so only did a quick check.

Guys, the native tethering & portable hotspot found in settings works perfect.

[Q] How to tether without extra charges or root?

Hello All. I've searched the forum and have seen many threads about tethering, but I can't find the answer to my specific question...or maybe I'm blind and am just missing it, in which case, I apologize for posting something that has already been answered.
Anyway, I want to tether with my verizon S3 but of course I don't want to pay extra for data I pay for already, nor do I want to root my device, at least not yet. I've heard many things that verizon can't charge for tethering if you have a tiered plan, but when I try to use the built in mobile hotspot it says I am not subscribed and to call verizon. Am I missing something? Didn't there used to be a built in wifi tethering functionality into android?
More specifically, I want to tether my Nexus 10.

Have you tried clockworkmod tether? Never used it but he does great work and it doesn't require root.

Foxfi from the market.

I have not. Does that need root? I assume it is a paid app. As long as the price is reasonable I don't mind. I'd prefer a free app though.

I'd prefer to not root my phone right now. Also, I used to use FoxFi on my Bionic, yes I owned one of those, and it worked great. So I tried it on the S3 (no root) and I couldn't get the Nexus 10 to find the tethered wifi network I set up.

neither require root. clockwork does require to install a program on your comp, might not work for you. check out foxfi.

Yeah problem with CWM tether is that I don't want it for the computer...want it for the Nexus 10 tablet. And FoxFi's network it creates can't be found by the Nexus 10 for some reason.

Yea Foxfi is no root need bro. Just keep playing with it I have had to mess around a few times with settings but always got it. I my first recommendation is keep security off for your first connection then after you connect try it with security.
I use it on my phone and my wife uses it on here locked down tiger than the Whitehouse razor.

Yeah I realize FoxFi doesn't need root, but it won't connect with the tablet. I read somewhere it doesn't work well with Jelly Bean...

Yeah works fine on the phone itself, but the nexus 10 is on JB so there is my problem I think.

Wireless Tether for Root Users

I have this on my Photon Q, and for some reason, some days it works fine, and stays connected, and other days my computer will connect to the wifi tethering of my phone, then after about 1 min it will disconnect. Its not my computer, it is the phone, the phone stops broadcasting with the tethering app.
Does anyonw know a fix for this? Yesterday i stayed connected without issue, but the day before, I fought with it all day long trying to keep it connected. I either have to restart wifi tether, or sometimes I actually have to restart the phone.
I know this i an issue with the phone, but I wonder if some setting in my computer is making the phone disconnect?
Also, if anyone has any better tethering apps, please let me know.

Have you tried an app like "KeepConnOn"?

No I will check into that thank you

I use trev e mod. So far works flawless.
Sent from my XT897 using xda premium

I did not come up with mod. So I'm not taking credit for it. All I know is that it's somewhere on xda. A buddy of mine sent me the apks. Sprint has blocked almost all the tethering apps from market.
Sent from my XT897 using xda premium

ah yeah, i've seen treve around before. he created some apps to identify and disable logging added in by the carriers, etc. thanks for the tip, PdaNet works well for usb tethering, but it's nice to have a wifi option too.

Here is the link to the trev mod in xda--http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1988735
Only thing though this is the same as wifi tether for root users and i downloaded mine from the play store. The one above i believe you have to install busybox and the one from the market you don't.

I dowloaded the app from the link above. Tried changing a few setting but still no luck. Turn on the wifi tether, laptops sees hotspot, connects, but when i try to browse my carrier pops up requesting me to pay. How do i bypass this? My Photon Q is unlocked and rooted.

CSPIRE. It's unlimited but not video streaming wich is kinda dumb that they changed it. Thanks I'm gonna give that a try when i get home. I'm hoping to learn more about kernels so I can stop CSPIRE from blocking me.

I have downloaded the trev e mod, and so far it is working great for me. Thanks for the info and the link!

my phone stopped broadcasting its wifi when I use wireless tether trev E mod lastnight for some reason. I habe reinstalled and changed settings around and everything. Anyone know a fix for this?

Any idea why after some time (30min aprox) the tethering trev shuts down by self?

I use Barnacle for wifi tethering myself. Seems like sprint throttles the connection when the phone sleeps though, setting 'stay awake' under the development settings page might help.
