Is there any data connection toggle icon such that when it is disabled, any program trying to connect internet should fail. Not like the one in the commanager.
Look for an app called noData.
When I activate tethering (via WIFI or USB) using Settings -> Wireless and Networks -> Tethering & Portable Hotspot, I lose the "3G" icon in my notification bar.
My laptop receives an IP address from the phone but no DNS routing. My phone is unable to receive data of any kind, including Google Voice messages.
This seems like a communication issue between my phone and Sprint when tethering is active. Did I miss a firmware or radio upgrade somewhere?
I'm running Cyanogen Mod 7.1.0 on my Nexus S 4G. Baseband D720SPRKE1.
you shouldn't lose 3g...you will lose your 4g, but 3g should stay active. you can try pda net, barnacle, and easy tether if you'd like another solution (fyi, for ns4g, pda net's usb tether will allow a 4g connection )
*edit*
noticed you're running CM7...it may be a bug with that rom, and installing a 3rd party tether app should solve it for you
I was having trouble finding a reliable guide to setting up wifi tethering from a Sprint EVO 4G.
I installed WiFi Tether version 3.1-beta7. When I start it, the network is broadcast correctly, but when I attempt to connect to it, it fails. I know that the Kindle Fire has to connect to an infrastructure mode server. I enabled this mode and when I start the wifi tether, another tether icon shows up in the status bar (i am on CM7 latest nightly). It shows a checkbox option to start "Portable Wi-Fi Hotspot." Whenever I select this, the Evo Reboots. I cannot seem to get a network that anything can connect to successfully.
Any suggestions or links? I haven't used wifi tether before.
1. download zt-180 adjoc switcher on both devices - phone and fire
2. open ad hoc swithcer on phone, switch to ad hoc mode on phone
3. on phone, open wifi tether app, ensure device is checked to match yours
4. set wifi tether on phone to start
5. open ad hoc switcher app on kindle.
6. change kindle fire to ad hoc mod with ad hoc switcher app.
7. connect to tethered phone using wireless settings on fire.
with this android 4.3, i dont see the option for bluetooth tethering. Did they hide it somewhere?
What's the best way to tether without getting "caught"? Is it safer to use an app (FoxFi for example) or can I do it right from the settings menu? https://support.google.com/nexus/answer/2812516
I've read that it's hardest tell when your tethering through Bluetooth, is this true?
