Hi every one and thank in advance for any help you may provide.
My question is : Is it possible to connect my GTAB to internet throught my cell phone internet ?... with bluetooth ... My cell is a Samsung Galaxy Theos (I 5800)
I know it's possible with a third part soft onGtab and cell phone but did not find anything about it in XDA forum.
Thank again.

Sorry if this might be in the wrong forum.
I was able to successfully tether my SAMSUNG GALAXY TAB 8.9 to my DROID 3 phone via bluetooth. I also use verizon.
1. I have read on various forums that many people have gotten this setup to work. Why hasn't Verizon disabled this? Can they even detect this?
2. Which is faster or more reliable? Bluetooth or USB tethering? How would I tether my tablet to my phone via USB ?
Thank You~!
I have a sim card I used with the original galaxy tab 7.0 and internet worked fine but now that I have the galaxy plus I get the message "To connect to the Internet with the device you are using, you'll need a webConnect data plan." Is there a way around this? It has to be something software related that is detecting this since with Gingerbread or Froyo on original galaxy tab did not have this issue. Maybe an app from T-Mobile that is blocking this? For ex. on the SGSII phone, just had to freeze the "wifi tether manager" to get free tethering again. Any help would be appreciated guys and gals
My service is with Boost Mobile. I have been trying to root the Kyocera Hydro phone I have so I can turn on the wifi hotspot and tethering. I was told by a factory rep and Amazon that this phone can do that job. Boost Mobile says it can't. Boost Mobile says the only 2 phones that will do wifi hotspot and tethering on thair service is the Samsung Galaxy s2 and the HTC Veo. I can't afford ether one new. I was also told by a person online that has been pointing me to online articles about rooting phones. Starting with the fundamentals of rooting. That this phone can do the wifi hotspot and tethering if rooted. I have gotten real deep into my phone. though I am not shure it is rooted. I see a lot of files that look a lot like windows operation/system files. But I know enough not to do anything with them beyond looking. If i can't get this phone to do wifi hotspot and tethering. Then can someone please tell me what phone would be good for what I need, for what I can afford or trade for. I got the Kyocera Hydro new from Amazon for $150.00 Other then the wifi hotspot and tethering this phone has suited my needs well. Sometimes (but not often enough to buy a separate cell phone type usb device) I take my laptop out on Amateur Radio demo's were there isn't a open wifi to tie into. That's why I need the wifi hotspot and tethering. I always have some kind of a/c power to plug into at the site.

I can give you the root method I rooted my hydro its a PAIN tho. And you cant change roms at all. But you may be able to teather and use it as a hotspot. But your internet will be crap it will be SOOOO SLOW but you can try. Let me know if you want the method youd have to inbox me for it im new so I cant post link.

I would also like to know how to tether... I've already rooted my kyocera hydro tho and only thing i'm having trouble with is finding a working app that will allow me to tether to my laptop. Right now i'm using my gfs galaxy s2 (t-mobile) and it works great for playing hearthstone. The only app i've found that works with the hydro is SVTP WIFI USB Tethering Lite. Bad thing is it only works for 2 days and then it wont work anymore. So i rooted my phone thinking that would work but it still doesn't and I would buy the Pro version but the app store wont allow me to since it says my provider (boost) doesn't allow it. If you could point me in the right direction as to how to tether I would really appreciate it.
i got my friends kyocera hydro rooted.
trying to find a working method to make it a 3g mobile hotspot over wifi connection
anyone know an app that actually works or a method to get it done?
does any proxies need to be disabled in any hidden menus?
The app is called "wifi tether for root user". Its on the play store but I can never find with store app. Do a google search it will show in the google play apps link. You will need to change device profile to "generic ics/jb wlan0". Best tethering app you can get.
Can you tell my how you rooted your hydro?
Hi Everyone
Am thinking about buying my very first mobile device. Have never owned a smartphone or tablet before. Would like to know if I were to buy a 7.7 inch Galaxy tablet (Verizon), would it be compatible with the wi-fi router my sister already uses at home for her Apple Mac. I am of very limited financial means and don't want to buy something if I am unable to use the wi-fi here. This is the wi-fi & internet model.
Moderator- Please move this topic to Q&A. Thanks
That's not really a question everybody can answer for you.. unless someone happens to use one with THAT specific kind of router.
What makes you think they wouldn't be "compatible" though ? WiFi is pretty much universal...
