4g tether - Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

yes. i want to tether my sprint ns4g's wimax to my galaxytab 2 7.0 and laptop. help?
currently running cm9 nightlies.

Here's what I use ... works great with Gingerbread roms. With CM9, you may need to change the Device Profile from auto to something more compatible.
Edit: I just went back and checked, and setting Device profile to Samsung Epic 4g is what worked for me.

[Q] Can't find 4G Signal anymore[Sprint]

I just got a Nexus S 4G today. converted from ATT to Sprint.
I use a Clearwire internetmobile usb also.
Stock, my 4g worked in and outside my house, great. I have experience rooting many phones and flashing many roms for friends family and myself, but never played with 4g.
I rooted with oneclick root in the 4g dev section, and used the rom cm7 from the same section. everything works great except it no longer picks up or finds the 4g connection. my clear finds it and they are the same wimax.
is there any reason why it doesnt work, or some sort of workaround?
Sprint Nexus S 4g.

[Q] Rooted HTC Inspire 4G - Tether Issue

Hi, I hope someone can help me. I have been using the ClearDroid ROM v1.2.2 Stable with the Mod and its great. The only problem I have is the usb tethering will not work without using something like "Easy Tether lite". When I connect my Inspire 4G to my laptop and select the usb tethering option i get an error that i need to "contact AT&T to enable tethering on this device". My provider is Telstra (Australia) and prior to rooting the phone this worked ok. Is this how it should work since it has been rooted and flashed the Cleardroid rom?
I have also noticed that my Inspire has AT&T Hot Spots still running, but using ClearDroid AT&T bloatware should have been removed. Has something not worked or is this normal?

Without the AT&T hotspot app present on the device, I am not sure that users would gain access to the free AT&T wifi across the country, so I left that in there purposely. The purpose is to only add to the device's functionality, while not taking anything away that might be useful.
As for the tethering issue, you are using the stock tethering app. When AT&T updated the device to gingerbread, they locked it down hard. I am still working on how to unlock the stock app for that.
There is a second tethering app in the app drawer that has been there for many builds now, and it is guaranteed to work as it should. Use that one instead of the stock one and you will be just fine. Many users even report that they like it better to begin with. I hope this helps until I can get a real fix on the hotspot.

Sorry to revive an old thread. I was hoping there was an update on getting the stock tethering hotspot app working in Gingerbread. I've recently starting using an unlocked Inspire 4G on Ting (GSM/T-Mobile network), which allows tethering, but the stock app complains I need to call AT&T to enable tethering.
I was hoping there was a setting in the setting.db I could change, like I see described for other devices, and worked for my Nexus 5.

[Q] (help) motorola xoom 3g verizon ..updated to ics wifi only os

Hi guys I need help or info about this Ive always wanted Motorola Xoom wifi only but I received Verizon one with 3g not upgraded to lte . I rooted it and installed ics for the wifi only system from Google or android website its stock ..
And works actually very well no 3g ..nothing about service I don't mind since I'm not with Verizon and not planning to go with them I just need wifi but my question is ...is it right I mean everything works good only the battery It seems like honeycomb stock verizon build battery stays longer is it because of wifi only ice version ..or something I'm not sure if somebody can help me with info
Hmmm ... me too. I have a Xoom tablet arriving this week, and it was listed as "MZ600 Xoom, LTE ready, Verizon". Which rom version should I install? I do not plan to activate it with Verizon, as I already have a dinc running CM7 nightly build 258, and waiting for ics. I would just like to run ics on the Xoom. If I don't activate the Xoom, which rom should I use, or CAN I use??
If both of you are not planning to activate with Verizon, using a Wifi only ICS ROM won't be a bad idea. I too have installed this to a friend of mine and he hasn't experienced any issues. You will not be missing out of any features because the only main difference is the 3g / LTE radio.
So anyone has seen the stock ICS for the xoom 3G version?
AFAIK wifi only is the only model to get an official update. Running the wingray build on cdma or lte is just fine.

[Q] No wifi tethering at all for i815 - should I return this?

I _love_ the galaxy tab I just bought from Verizon, but I bought it for one reason alone - wifi tethering when I'm on the road.
I have tried every ROM I can find, every app, hacked app but cannot get wifi tethering to work.
I have 4g tethering with my GS3 on t-mobile but the Verizon network has MUCH better coverage when on the road.
Should I return the 7.7 & get a Tab 2 7.0 - I don't like it as much but must have tethering? It seems there are AOPK ROMs for the 7.0 - which btw was the only rom I found that would give me tethering on my GS3 (built-in & it works great).
Any recommendations for getting tethering working on the 7.7? Thanks for any help!
*Fixed* wifi tethering on Verixon Galaxy Tab 7.7 SCH-i815!
Hi All - wanted to post an update, I got it working using the Custom, Stock ICS ROM 4.0.4 here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1932597
*I wiped everything clean in CWM & flashed the 'wipe' version of the ROM only, which includes Gapps.
The native 'Mobile Hotspot' works GREAT, and I am happy as a clam - don't have to 'downgrade' to a lesser model Tab 2 7.0, and have my hotspot I need. I'm getting almost as fast speeds on my Verizon hotspot as I am on my Concast cable: 23-26Mbps down, 7-10Mbps Up.
Many thanks to Electon73 for the custom rom!!

[Q] Nexus S 4G 4.1.2 / 4.2.2 TETHERING

Alright so about a month or 2 ago now I had switched back to ICS for my NS4G because Jellybean broke tethering for us. I was using CM10 Nightlies all the way from when bursuara was making the unofficial nightlies to the actual Official CM10 4.2.2 Update came out and tether was not working at all. I would like to switch back to Jellybean but the only thing that is stopping me is Having the ability to tether a 4G connection. It is a must for me. I've been searching everywhere and i cant seem to find anyone saying they actually have 4g tethering working on 4.1.2 or 4.2.2 for the nexus s 4g
Ive been searching on and off for about 2 months now and all i remember seeing is someone saying that 4g Tethering started working in a certain build of CM10 4.1.2
As stated above all Im just looking for is a ROM preferably CM10 that has 4g Tethering working, Either through Native or VIA WIFI Tether.. Can anyone help me here because id love to switch back to Jellybean
