Hi, I was wondering if anyone else is experiencing issues with the Wifi Tether app by Treve Mod? I CAN NOT use the tethering on my windows 8 laptop, but it works just fine with the 7 one. They are the same computers. My dad has the Note 2 and he uses the same app, and I can connect to his, and it will work fine. I don't know if it's a setting inside the app that is messed up on my phone, or what. Thanks, any recommendations will help.
I use it and don't have any major issues but you need specific settings in it to get infrastructure mode to work. Otherwise it just does ad hoc which may not work on some devices that won't support ad hoc wireless networks such as other phone or tablets. I will check my settings tomorrow and report back.

You mind posting the APK if possible? I am having a hard time finding it on GP, AMZ, or BM
I will try to get the apk I am using uploaded, for now here is a screenshot of the version as well as the settings I'm using. The reload wifi driver setting was key to getting it to work in infrastructure mode for me.

I know that generally Android does not like connect to ad-hoc wifi but was hoping against hope that someone with an Eee Pad can check if that is still the case?
I'm definitely getting one once i can get my molesty hands on some stock somewhere, but when out and about, my trusty Treo Pro only creates an ad-hoc wifi network via wmwifirouter (works excellent with other portable wifi devices i have).
well, I'm using Barnacle with a rooted Atrix 4G and the transformer can't connect to the ad hoc network.
I can't connect my Transformer to my HTC Hero running an ad-hoc WiFi hotspot. However, it works fine over bluetooth....

Ah ha, at least bluetooth tethering works. At least that's an option i have. Thanks for checking guys.
Argh! Does this mean I can't use the 'Wifi Hotspot' app built into my phone (DHD) to share its 3G connection with my Transformer whilst I'm out and about?
Because I was kind of relying on that.
I may have to cancel my pre-order :-(

It's an Android issue in general, nothing specific to the Transformer specifically. The latest wifi tether for root users i think now does Infrastructure mode and also bluetooth tethers as well.

You can tether it through Bluetooth, which is better IMO. Every time I use Wifi Hotspot on my N1, I start having crashes and memory issues. I had rather use BT for this.

I don't know about that particular phone, but if the hotspot is infrastructure mode (like what is built into Froyo), the TF will be able to connect to it and use it. If it is Ad Hoc, then there will be trouble, Android in general does not support connecting to Ad Hoc (could have changed in Honeycomb now, I but I don't think so). I've used my TF with the Infrastructure hotspot on my Optimus phone, for example, it works fine. Figure out what kind of hotspot your phone does.

Do you need to be rooted on either/both devices to do that?

On Windows Mobile, use wmwifirouter and choose the bluetooth tethering option. See if that works.
Someone a few posts up mentioned that he's tethering his TF via bluetooth to his Android phone.
It definetely depends on the phone. wireless tether to my buddy's HTC Evo worked yet didnt with my HTC Hero. Luckily, the bluetooth does work exceptionally well so theres no worries!

I installed the trial of Wmwifirouter, but the bluetooth tether option is grayed out. Maybe a limitation of the trial?
I just can't believe that there isn't a better solution for this. Surely there is a utility or a workaround for those of us in tethering hell!!! GahhhH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Would this be feasible on a honeycomb device?
http://nookdevs.com/NookColor_Enable_Adhoc_Networking
has anyone tried to tether with the EVO?
I saw a patch for another tablet somewhere to enable ad-hoc wifi. it was a zip for cwm, but most definitely it was built for earlier android version. i'll look for it nonetheless and report back.

Any ideas what it does? It runs as a service com.htc.tetheringguard
Just installed the OTA update and noticed this. If you stop the service it doesnt reload unless you open the mobile hotspot app. Think the free hotspot block can be removed by removing the service? That seems way too easy...

It certainly does seem too easy. Brilliant solution if it works though.
Easy test, turn it off, try to use another tethering app.
I am debating between doing and not doing the update because I like the free WiFi hotspot; I can be cheap
Can someone with the update try it?
I tried freezing it with titanium backup Pro, but it just rendered the mobile hotspot inoperable.

If you're already rooted you might as well just use the wireless tether app, or the one built into cm7.

Does the wireless tether app tether 4G or just 3G? Download link anyone?

4G as long as you have 4G available. If you use this version, make sure you select the option in settings for HTC related to the LAN.

Hello. I am really new to all this and I have a problem that I can't seem to find similar posts explaining or having the same issue. I have the supercm7 v1 rom on my infuse4g and the mobile hotspots won't work. A user can connect to it and we even saw that he could get an IP address and DNS was working. But no data, cannot load any webpages or anything. I looked at the apn settings and played around with them with different suggestions with no luck. Any ideas? Thank you

Not sure if i'm any help at all, but every time ive used wifi tethering, i need to load something on my phone after enabling tethering in order for the inernet to work on the computer. it never seems to work correctly until i use data on the phone after turning it on and connecting.

If your actually looking for help you can start by giving some info for your phone. More than " its a motorola". List phone model, what software, if its rooted or not, are you running a custom rom, if your are what rom. These details are very important without them you will never get an answer.

my phone can make a ad hoc network just fine it only has problems making a wifi hotspot. it does not matter what teathing program you use. what does it matter what phone it is? but its a motorola electrify(rooted but it did the same thing stock). my firend has the same phone it does the same thing it makes a hotspot you connect it works for a few min then disconnects the phone says no 3g then after a few sec it reconnects. if you teather using ad hoc it works fine. i have connected the phone to a nook, ipad, ipod toch, and other android tablets always the same thing the only thing that works is ad hoc. so if i can not make the note connect to an ad hoc network i can not teather
I have this on my Photon Q, and for some reason, some days it works fine, and stays connected, and other days my computer will connect to the wifi tethering of my phone, then after about 1 min it will disconnect. Its not my computer, it is the phone, the phone stops broadcasting with the tethering app.
Does anyonw know a fix for this? Yesterday i stayed connected without issue, but the day before, I fought with it all day long trying to keep it connected. I either have to restart wifi tether, or sometimes I actually have to restart the phone.
I know this i an issue with the phone, but I wonder if some setting in my computer is making the phone disconnect?
Also, if anyone has any better tethering apps, please let me know.
Have you tried an app like "KeepConnOn"?
No I will check into that thank you
I use trev e mod. So far works flawless.

I did not come up with mod. So I'm not taking credit for it. All I know is that it's somewhere on xda. A buddy of mine sent me the apks. Sprint has blocked almost all the tethering apps from market.

ah yeah, i've seen treve around before. he created some apps to identify and disable logging added in by the carriers, etc. thanks for the tip, PdaNet works well for usb tethering, but it's nice to have a wifi option too.
Here is the link to the trev mod in xda--http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1988735
Only thing though this is the same as wifi tether for root users and i downloaded mine from the play store. The one above i believe you have to install busybox and the one from the market you don't.

I dowloaded the app from the link above. Tried changing a few setting but still no luck. Turn on the wifi tether, laptops sees hotspot, connects, but when i try to browse my carrier pops up requesting me to pay. How do i bypass this? My Photon Q is unlocked and rooted.

In the settings did you change device profile to ics/jb generic wlan0. I don't really touch to much after that and it works fine for me. Who is your carrier?

CSPIRE. It's unlimited but not video streaming wich is kinda dumb that they changed it. Thanks I'm gonna give that a try when i get home. I'm hoping to learn more about kernels so I can stop CSPIRE from blocking me.

my phone stopped broadcasting its wifi when I use wireless tether trev E mod lastnight for some reason. I habe reinstalled and changed settings around and everything. Anyone know a fix for this?

I use Barnacle for wifi tethering myself. Seems like sprint throttles the connection when the phone sleeps though, setting 'stay awake' under the development settings page might help.
