without paying for it ?????????????
I haven't updated yet. Are you rooted? If so, can you not get away with freezing the tethering manager apk like on gb?

As of now this is not working. Looks like ATT caught onto this. I really don't want to use a 3rd party app and I'm DEFINATELY not giving up my unl data...
can you install any of the tethering apps on ICS? (I'm still on GB haven't tried - just suggestions to those on ICS - and yes I'm waiting for a custom ROM to be released)

I use FoxFi. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.foxfi
I would like to know this as well.
Before ICS I would use the popular WiFi Tether app, using a Device-Profile of "Samsung Galaxy S" and Setup-Method "Netd (master)" and it worked perfectly with no errors. Now on ICS with the same settings and build it starts up, but with an error. Almost everything in the log has a successful green "done" status, the only thing that failed is "activating wifi interface".
Any ideas?
Ok ive done nothing and now my tether hotspot is now unlocked and I can use it without any apps on ics
Forget me I figured it out

From tethering tap 'Portable Wi-Fi hotspot', then Menu -> Configure(Wi-Fi hotspot)
...
Also noticed that tapping the '3 sliders' on the left toggle between 'all devices can be connected' vs. 'only allowed devices can be connected' via MAC filtering.
Regular Android WIFI Tether is working for me, set the Device Profile to Samsung Galaxy Nexus (GSM)
I would like to see native Hotspot working though, I can tell the difference between native and 3rd party apps.

don't do it...you will not be able to enable it (the settings ui will crash )

It'll say it's not supported, but it'll connect anyway. I'm at an ice skating place typing this on my Kindle and my phone in my pocket.
Yeah I am now running the latest version of Android wifi tether (v3_1-beta11) with the device-profile as samsung galaxy nexus and setup-method under auto. Wifi tether works perfectly now.

Interesting... it wasn't there the first time I flashed ICS.
One of the first things I went looking for.
I'm on my "third time is a charm" flash and now I see it.
Killing it will break the UI.

Hey guys,
Here's what, my phone manages to establish a connection with my computer just fine, as it is able to with other devices. But apparently, it does NOT share my 3g while it's at it. I guess it's a common problem?

Oh and bluetooth tethering does not work either(similarly)

I'm not calling you a noob or any other name like that. Just search the development thread for "enable built in WiFi hot spot" and there it is. I literally found it in seconds, and you can too.

@1BadWolf hey man my bad, and thanks.. but is there anyway by not rooting it?

The only way that I know of to tether without root is to pay your carrier a fee (most probably a monthly fee) to enable it for you.
There are apps in the playstore that are supposed to work, but I haven't tried any so I can't say how well they work.

NUMA is my main ROM and I haven't had any problems tethering with it. It should be enabled by default, though. Are you using the native tethering app?

WiFi or USB? I've only used WiFi, but not in a while so I'll double check it when I get home in a couple of hours. As far as USB tethering goes, I may be wrong but I think you'd have to have something installed on your computer that supports it. A friend of mine uses PDAnet on both his phone and PC to USB tether his desktop but I don't know if something like that is required.

Hi everyone.i am on the verge of buying the note 8 Model: GT-N5110ZWYXAR the version without the sim support cause i couldnt find it in any us store i searched , and because my cousin is bringing it to me, i settled for the wifi only version found at about 285euros at bestbuy.
i am wondering if a usb 3g dongle might work when plugged via OTG cable, something like Huawei E1750 3G USB Modem.
i want an 8 inch tablet with 3g support and this is the best solution i could come up.will it work?i really dont want to go to the other option of a wifi dongle cause they are pretty expensive.
any help would be much appreciated.
ps:if anyone knows where i can purchase the cellural version of note 8 (just the device not with us data plans cause i live in Greece) plz let me know.

Hey guys. Can some one please tell me what i should do on my Nexus to get it to connect to the PS3?
So I've scoured the forums looking for my exact problem but to no avail. I am trying to connect my wifi hotspot to my ps3 to watch netflix basically. I can get the wifi connected from phone to computer with no problem (thats what im using now). However, when i scan my PS3 for wifi signals, the only thing thats comes up are the usual wifi signals from the neioghbors. I've tried all the settings i can find on the web but nothing works, like changing device info to Optimus 2 and softap. I'm using a rooted Nexus with the Wifi tether app. under Settings, Change device, i dont see my phone make or madel. Maybe that has something to do with it. I have no idea... Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
Sincerely,
A guy who just wants to watch netflix on his stupid ps3

Sorry I should have added that the wifi hotspot that comes with my phone only works if I subscribe to it, adding extra to my bill. It turns on yes but no data is transferred that way.
