I thought CM10 had wifi tether baked in? If not, get wifi tether from the play store.
EDIT: Or did you mean the apk that picks up when you are in AT&T Hotspot areas and you get free wifi?
Not WiFi tether. I mean picking up the free atnt WiFi like in Starbucks..

Not sure if you can sorry :/.
I can't stand that feature though, because my music will cut in and out as I drive home from connecting/disconnect to the million AT&T wifi hotspots in Southern California.

That is the exact reason I have disabled it on mine (or, more specifically, never enabled it in CR). That drives me bananas.
I want this feature also but I am on MIUI.
i dont know why anyone wants this feature on. if you are near a mcdonalds or starbucks check for hotspots in wifi settings and there it is.
you could add the lines back into
/system/etc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf
network={
ssid="attwifi"
key_mgmt=NONE
priority=1
}
Don't you just need to connect to the att hotspot once, and it will reconnect when you are in range?
I don't leave Wi-Fi on when not at home, or in use, so I liked that feature too on the several phones I had. But on custom ROMs I just had to connect the first time, each subsequent time it was automatic.

AT&T hotspots will only work when you are in range of one of their hotspots. Its not like a nationwide available network. Mostly its McDonalds and Starbucks. If you can't see a "attwifi" ssid in your wireless settings nothing you change in system files will let you connect.

Edit: Try this app
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.att.android.attsmartwifi
It has a AT&T hotspot locator. It didn't find the one in my town though, so I don't how successful it will be for you.
Edit 2: the myAT&T app also has a locator that found several hotspots in my town I didn't know about
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.att.myWireless
After you log in, more, AT&T Wi-Fi, AT&T Wi-Fi locator, and search by zip code.
Okay it shows you the available WiFi networks but it doesn't log you into the attwifi ones. On att ROMs it has that feature
Sent from my One X using Tapatalk 2
But only when in range of one of them ...
Once you remember one it will do it automatically from then on.
Sent from my HOCKS
I am in range of it. I think there is a special app on att ROMs for this capability. I will try a McDonalds to see see if it asks for login info.
Sent from my One X using Tapatalk 2
I'm able to connect to the att hotspots with my TouchPad just fine.
Do you mean the notification that "you may need to sign in" after you connect? I get that, and I just have to open the browser and check the agree to terms box, and click continue. It does that to me every time at McDonald's but it doesn't ask for user name or password. Even when the network was remembered it makes me agree again the next time.
Now that I am talking about it I do I remember an app on Eclair on the Captivate that would bypass the agreement part, but it was not there on the stock FroYo, or on the GS II. Is that the app you mean? When I turned on Wi-Fi at McDonalds it would show an orange notification icon and connect. But, I haven't seen that in another phone since.

That is the way it shows on ATT roms on the one x. Thats why I think its a special app in the rom not just a saved wifi connection
If there is a zip version of the stock ROM somewhere its probably in /system/app/ if there is an actual app. I can only find the exe version, and don't know how to extract files from an exe.
Anyone with a stock rooted version could check in /system/app/ for an apk with hotspot or Wi-Fi or ATT in the title.

I got this to work by adding the attwifi to the WPA supplement and putting the att hotspot apk in /system/apps folder.

ATT Hotspot Link
Make sure to copy the permissions from another APK from within that apps folder.
/system/etc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf

ssid="attwifi"
key_mgmt=NONE
priority=1
}
Reboot once you have done all this and it should auto connect.
Does anyone know how to enable the functionality if using a non-AT&T ROM?

Hi sorry to bump this up but so far I haven't got anywhere with trying to figure out whether this is doable or not
I'm on Task650 and before that Paranoid. Neither of which allow me to get onto AT&T Wifi hotspots
My office building has a dedicated AT&T router which I would like to use because the cellular signal in the building is usually terrible. If I can't get this to work, I'll probably have to fall back on a Touchwiz ROM or stock. Prefer not too
Anyway, the dropbox link no longer works
And I'm unclear if the code above specifically addresses this issue or addresses something else? I'm able to see the hotspots. And I can get an IP. The problem is that it won't let me on the network. I just get a webpage where it expects me to fill in my wifi account info which never happens on stock

I know that AT&T blocks customers from seeing certain apps in the market. I tried searching. Is there a list of these apps somewhere or does anyone the specific type? I know tethering apps are one area they want to keep us away from.
Dont know if this still works but it did ....... Turn your wifi off, put phone in airplane mode, then turn your wifi back on (leave phone in airplane mode so your not connected to the ATT network) and the ATT blocked apps will show up.
Try this it works for my x10 which is a fellow att phone

Couldn't you just take you SIM card out? Using WIFI to connect to the market ofcourse
So based upon what I'm reading, the only apps being blocked by AT&T are tethering apps?
No there are a few others that are blocked. Some music apps, video apps and such.

I think AT&T is able to tell if you are tethering. Which is what they also did with Jailbroken iPhones. So be careful not to get the plan added on automatically if they find out.

Seems like its much easier to activate airplane mode, than to remove the sim card.
Just be careful when tethering, even if you check usage you can still go over and not know it! AT&T can tell by data usage as well. I agree on the Non Inspire 2.3.3 ROMs

As for the unlimited data, no idea. There was a thread here about using an iPhone 2g but I'm not sure how valid it is.
I would like to know if there is any way I can have my WiFi internet on my MT4GS,without my Sim card in the phone .Probably just surfing the net or using "whats app". I have tried and my cell doesn't connect to the WiFi router at all.Can someone advise on settling this matter ? My phone is unlocked and rooted.I haven't taken the update,so I'm still on the stock ROM.
I used my old windows touch pro 1 cell and it connects to the WiFi router without Sim card.So what can I do to get the WiFi internet on my MT4GS?
You should just have it.
I have two of these devices - one on T-Mobile, the other bought aftermarket out of plan. No sim card, yet I connect to wifi everywhere, even use it as a wifi bridge to my router for a desktop in my home.
Just go into settings, wireless settings, then turn on wifi and tap 'wifi settings' underneath it. You should see your network in the list, just tap it and enter a password if necessary.
Done.
This doesn't work for you?
Sim card has nothing to do with wifi, only cellular.
Maybe the fact that your phone is rooted. But I don't know my rooted cliq is rooted an connects to WiFi fine...

I don't think so - I just got it back from HTC and it's not rooted yet, still stock the same way I shipped it out to them. Gets on wifi fine with no sim card.
It does have an S-OFF bootloader, but I don't see how that would matter.
I do find this curious.
What exactly happens when you try to connect to a wifi network?
Does it even see the wifi networks?
Where does the ability to connect fail?
You should be able to connect. It'll have that option at the HTC setup wizard.

Says scanning ,then tries to acquire ip address then it disconnects and starts all over with the same result.Secondly I remembered the last two programs that were causing me problems in installing and uninstalling were Bloater and Busybox ,before my WiFi went haywire.I gave up trying and hence I was preparing to send my cell back to HTC, since it was still within the warranty period.I unrootted my cell and now my WiFi works again.So i really can't say exactly what caused this malfunction as yet .Thank you guys,for such quick responses.This really makes me feel proud to be part of an outstanding group of people here,and as whole, part of xda-developers.I thank you all for your help an assistance.Hopefully this information might help someone else someday.

is there anything i can install or flash onto my phone to allow connection?
im on vacation and its either pay $20 for hotel wifi, use my 200mb data plan (already at 117mb and it gets refreshed at the 12th of every month...so i still have month to go with only 83mb left ), or use my cousins hotspot which happens to be ibss/adhoc-he has an optimus v that is rooted but no custom rom
Under settings I Of wifi manager ive found this..."treat ibss network as working (cyanogen mod, rooted_wpa supplicant)" so i either need cyanogenmod-(no way i can download that rom with my data plan and dont even kniw if a port of it would work the same) or a rooted_wpa supplicant

Positive, as long as you have ANY sort of data plan. If you're on the pay per megebyte play your screwed if you use the net at all. I've been tethering with my phones for about 3 years now on t-mobile with plans that don't allow it.
Does anybody know about using the wifi tethering for Cincinnati Bell? With unlimited data do we get away with tethering without being noticed or charged?

On my Razr, tethering would disable the internet on the phone. Eventually I solved it by adding the "old-style" APN (for rogers) instead of using the "LTE" apn that by default was in the phone.
So my suggestion is either search the internet for new APN information for telus, or, find someone who has successful tethering on their telus phone and copy the APN they use.
