[Q] Is it possible to tether the xoom to a non android phone? - Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

My Wifi Xoom recognises my 2 phones - a Palm Centro and a 3 Skype phone and will pair over Bluetooth. But it doesn't want to "connect" to either phone.
Is it possible to use one of the phones as the modem to connect my Xoom to the Internet when there is no wifi available - tethering?

iPhone with iOS 5.1 worked via bluetooth tethering.

The issue is that the PDAnet software is using the telephone as the modem and desktop software on the PC (client software) to connect to the telephone as a modem. We would want to use the Gtab as the desktop with client software to connect to either a telephone as a modem or even to a PC and use the PC's network connection. That doesn't exist today AFAIK except perhaps for the Archos tablet (and again not sure that is working well for them). I am sure with newer tablets coming, some software will soon emerge with a client function that will allow you to connect the Gtab to your Android telephone or Blackberry or even iPhone. There isn't a way today (AFAIK) to use your PC desktop's network connection with the GTab with a USB link (again the software I have been able to find assumes you want to use the desktop connected to the telephone's network connection and not the other way around).
Once this is available it will be sweet (especially if I can connect to my Blackberry; wired or wireless).

[Q] Bluetooth tether with Captivate (galaxy S) asus transformer

I have a rooted Galaxy S (att captivate) and I can wifi tether just fine. However, I have tried multiple version of wifi tether app for bluetooth and maybe because the galaxy s device only works over a specific bluetooth wavelength? Another way to connect via bluetooth, or even usb tether the two :O

[Q] Nokia C6 (Symbian S60 5th) and hotspot (no ROOT)

Hi, at first, sorry for my bad English (Czech Republic).
I have big problem, I 've mobile Nokia C6-00, with Symbian S60 5th OS, and i need connect with my Infinity via Nokia to internet. I"ve tried Joikuspot, but Android isn't support AdHoc. When I had ICS, i connect via Nokia to internet via Bluetooth. In infinity I 've set in Bluetooth setting connect to internet via bluetooth.
Yesterday I installed JB 4.2.1. and this setting, which was in ICS is not in JB! (only if I paired in any device, for example Asus TF300T- there is this setting). Please, have anybody some idea, how i connect to internet? Please, i have tablet without root and i want it in future! Thx
Can't you just run some Wifi Hotspot app/thing on your Nokia, and then connect via WiFi as you would to any router?
I use FoxFi on Samsung S3 and PDANet Tablet on TF700 to connect to the internet via Bluetooth. My JB tablet is rooted but I think you can use PDANet without root.

My Nokia have not any aplication in system. You have to install some application wich do a hotspot, for example JoikuSpot (i thing, that its only one on Symbian).
And Android not support AdHoc.(i think)

[Q] USB Reverse tethering two android phones to have internet access

Hello, I would like to access the internet connectivity on one android phone from another one via usb tether (not wifi/bluetooth). Can usb tethering or reverse tethering enable this? So far I have learned that the android phones can only be tethered to PC's. Also does the special pass-through feature on the HTC One series enable connecting to another phone or tablet?
I have a Galaxy S2 HD LTE SHV-E120S rooted. Would installing Cyanogenmod enable such a function?
