Rooted tb unable to run wireless tether. - Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
My phone shown as rooted. But I'm not able to run wireless tether app. Please see attached photos and you will see what's I'm talking about.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Note. I use Rom manager to fix all permission issues and still can't run app.
Please let me know if I did anything wrong between ruu, kernel n Rom.
I'm open for suggestions...
Thanks
Also my battery is not getting any better...

First off this should be in general as this has nothing to deal with development.
Second why not use the built in htc app?

You could try using a different ROM, sometimes that's the cause of it (e.g. my phone will not tether properly using android wifi tether on bolted ROM)
You could try using barnacle (if you don't need an infrastructure hotspot)
Hope this helps.

try uninstalling and reinstalling the app and make sure super user is working correctly. I used it on Bamf and Stock rooted but after I switched to bamf and restored my apps/data i had to uninstall/reinstall then it worked fine.

[Q] Samsung S Vibrant can't do wireless Tethering like Nexus One?

Hi folks,
Got my phone from T-Mobile. Rooted it with OCLF. Then installed wireless tethering app on the phone. After I launch the app and then tried to find the wifi spot from my laptop, nothing is found.
I'm using the original 2.1
This kind of problems never happened on my previous N1. Is this a common problem for this Samsung phone? Any solutions? Thanks.
You rooted with the oclf? Download terminal emulator and and type in su, you should get a pop up asking for root access, if not you aren't rooted

Yes. I checked. I do have root.
The problem is that the wifi tethering (SSID) is not show when I search the available wireless spot on my laptop (or iPad)
Install a Bionix Rom and you will have no issues. It's built right in under wireless and network settings.

Any solutions without flashing a new ROM?
Worked for me with barnacle. You can get it from the market for free.

What rom has working nfl mobile?

I love my aosp rom, and I still want to use it as a daily driver. That said I still need a rom that nfl mobile works on. I need to be able to watch my home team while out of town. Can anyone point me to a rom that nfl mobile will work on?? That way I can install it and create a backup so whenever I NEED to watch nfl on my phone, I can restore back to it easy. Also, if it worked with mr2 + radio would be most desired.
Edit: ok, I'm stupid didn't realize I needed my Verizon..... But it still doesn't work in AO5PTH3ORY. So I'm going to do some testing and post results here.
Edit #2: UBER BAMF- working with restore method
SYNERGY 3.0- working with restore method
GTP EATON 1.7- working!
Gingeritus 3d - working with restore method
More testing to come! I know how many people need there football fix this season!
If anyone knows a fix for one of these roms please post and let me know!

Have you tried to uninstall ssopermissions with TiBu?
Mine is currently working with skyraider zeus preview 2. I have tried with bamf 4.9 and it worked.
It works great on CL3ANTH3ORY. Make sure you perform a full wipe including system when you flash. Install NFL Mobile, sign in to your Verizon account, and you'll be set.
What do you mean by uninstalling ssoperations?

it works on bamf 2.3,vzw did something that now requires you to log into your "my verizon profile",if you install bamf 2.3,set it up,start the nfl app,log in to my vzw profile,prompt comes the first time,titanium backup everything,system files included,restore your nandroid of what ever rom you were using,restore these 3 files with data, ssopermissions1.0,vzwsso engine,nfl mobile. it will work for about 12hrs then times out,after that all ya gotta do is retore them again.

I think I understand what your saying, will that work if I restore to AO5PTH3ORY? I'm guessing not, but don't have time to test until tonight

Thanks satseaker! That worked for all the roms I've tried so far besides AO5PTH3ORY! Hopefully it will work for that one soon

For future reference, you want to give more information. Like what ROM you're using, rooted, app, procedures, what you've done, etc...

Tried all methods and nothing works

When you get the tether going back out and open your browser it forces your data to start up and should work fine after that.

[Q] about tethering

Currently I'm using LS ics aosp mr3 and sometimes I switch to tshed 1.6 when I have a hankering for Netflix usability.
It is my understanding that root+rom=free tethering.
1. Do all roms have built in tethering without having to dl a 3rd party app?
2. For those that do (if not all) why do people use 3rd party apps anyway? Is there a benefit?
3. I notice LS doesn't seem to have built in *wired* tethering but I still have a paid 3rd party app for that from my unrooted days. So question is, is there any speed advantage to using wired tethering over wireless?

Yes, root + ROM = Free tethering
Answer to number 1: No, not all ROMs include a tethering app. You can download one from the playstore if this may be the case. Usually the tethering app included with a ROM is a third party app, but is there because the developer would suggest its use for that ROM... usually because they tested wifi tethering on their ROM with that specific app.
Answer to number 2: Third party tethering apps are in play store in case the ROM didn't include a tethering app. Also, if you use Titanium Backup to backup your working wifi tethering app and its settings, it's less of a pain to just restore that previous tethering app and its data so that you can skip setting up the app again.
Answer to number 3: I'm unaware of speed advantages of internet by tethering wired compared to wireless. Just see what works best for you.

Ok. Number 2 comes from LS, it has built in tethering however I noticed people in the dev section under the LS thread talking about getting "wifi tether" from the market and making it use the nexus one settings and all that and I'm thinking... why bother with all that if its got its own.
Thank you sir.

You can try it if you want to and see how it works for you.
But no, I highly doubt there is a internet speed difference between wired and wireless tethering. A mobile data connection is a mobile data connection, no matter how it's shared.
I suppose some people just don't like using wires, which is understandable.
I haven't tried the built in tether yet but the cm7 tether wasn't as good at keeping a connection as WiFi tether from the market.

Btw. Without starting a new thread, or should I? What is the lightest yet fully working AOSP Gbread rom? I've been using tshed but even that seems to have a bit of unnecessary stuff packed in. Like Rom Manager for instance...I'm on 4ext now so that's useless. I'm not brave enough to go removing system apps. I don't know what's necessary.
Sent from my ThunderBolt using xda app-developers app
I think sfkcm7 is the lightest. To delete a system app all you need to do is download a root file explorer line es file explorer and give it root permissions in the settings and mount system as read/write. Then navigate to /system/app and delete the apps that you dont use like Rom manger.

Ok. Deleted rom manager from system/app, rebooted. Its still installed and not removeable. Now what? Please forgive my newbishness.

Rooted my phone, root seems ok, but i still cant tether

I hope it's ok to make a topic about this... Been looking around without finding any duplicate posts. I should note that i had an older rezound that i rooted just fine on gb and it tethered fine.
This new one had ics before i rooted it, and i get issues with any tethering app i use; even barnacle, which was the one i used last time. Ill post the error message i get in a subsequent post, but i think it had to do with difficulties making an ad-hoc connection or something.
Anybody face this issue?

Use this app
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.googlecode.android.wifi.tether
Go to settings in the app, set devuce profile to HTC rezound or Samsung galaxy nexus CDMA.
Change setup method to net D master, turn off encryption and scroll down and check to enable routing fix.
Delete the Verizon mobile hotspot app and the system app TetheringGuard.apk
be sure to grant superuser or supersu root access

Awesome, thank you for your post. I followed you up until the delete the verizon mobile hot spot app and the tetheringGuard.apk. What is the preferred way to do this? I have titanium backup pro (that i normally freeze my apps with, I know thats not the same) could i do it through there?

Don't worry about answering this. You can if you want. I just tried it from the point I was at and wifi tethering is now working. Thanks again man.
Amazing how the settings actually matter... I know I had tried this app already lol
Yeap its very picky with those settings, and titanium backup is exactly the app I use to uninstall those two apk's
