Hey guys,
Now before everyone chimes in with "Barnacle", "Wireless Tether from Google Code" or "just add a custom APN"... I have tried all of these methods including using Root Explorer and SQL Lite to edit the APNs and none of them will enable me to tether over wifi. I'm on the latest version of Ginger Blur and using the Atrix in Australia on the Telstra Next G network.
Any help would be appreciated, thanks

Under the .db file, ensure that where it says default, add tether after it (default,tether) make sure its the telstra line though. Thats all i did to mine from memory. Also ensure airplane mode is on

I use the WIRED tether from google code, works like a dream. Wired tether doesn't eat your battery and helps with heat since you wont be using wifi too.

Tried this, didn't work. This is probably going to be a deal breaker for me .
Bump?
Looks like I'll be going back to the Inspire, I need to be able to tether for my iPad 2.
Is there any root method for free wired/wireless tethering? I know there are the apps that do this but I rather not go that route
Free no not without rooting or paying for an app.

Follow these steps each time you want to wireless tether for free in this exact order.
1.) Open the mobile hotpot that came with the phone and enable it. If this is the first time running it, configure the hotspot how you like.
2.) Go to your phone dialer and dial "*#*#4636#*#*" without the quotes. This will access the phone testing menu.
3.) Go to Phone Information.
4.) Scroll down and tap "Turn radio off"
5.) Now tap "Turn radio on"
6.) Enjoy your free wireless tethering!
Remember, you need to perform these steps each time you want to tether.

It's weird though because the wireless tether app, no matter what version I download wont offer infrastructure mode, only ad-hoc. And some of my devices are only compatible with infrastructure.

Im not worried about the phone... I was wondering about verizon taking note.... I just dont wanna pay is all....
wireless tether isnt even avoidable on the market for us
Easy and free wifi hotspot
I spend most of my time lurking, but post every once in a while. Here is what I did:
If it's rooted then you can use Google's Wifi tether app for free.
Install v. 2.0.7
I bought my DX2 today and had it rooted with Gingerbreak and installed this, and it works for me. No problems. I miss being able to talk on the phone and use data though (from last phone).
Hope this helps!
It wont let me post links. Hmmm. Go to:
code.google[/url] (dot) com/p/android-wifi-tether/downloads/detail?name=wireless_tether_2_0_7.apk

Hello, all. I am wondering if anybody can help me resolve a issue with wifi tethering .. I can't for the life of me, get it to work.. I'm using HTC Droid Eris rooted (unknown source) on cricket network, I see no errors while I start up and it says sharing connection, but I can't see it on any devices! I've tried, barnicale, Google's code site, and just about every other tether app I could find! Is this an issue with cricket itself, cm7, or maybe kernel!? Please help! Thanks in advance

Did you find a solution? 2.0.7 doesn't work for me either. the wireless tether hasn't worked for me since i flashed 7.1 CyanogenMod.
I am using CM7 and Barnacle works for me but I have to press both start and associate. I also have troubles with wifi tether.
I've been using cm7 for months and barnacle and the wireless tether 2.0.7 both work normally for me. You try wiping everything reflashing then installing apps one at a time to see if that fixes your problem?
Sent from my Eris using XDA App
I stopped using 2.0.7 a long time ago. It was killing my battery even while it was plugged in. Currently I am using the 3.x beta series of Wireless Tether (I am currently using beta 6) with KhosFroyo v39 (am preparing to move away from this soon) via Verizon Wireless.
Check to make sure you can access data using a web browser. Also check to make sure you can connect to a wifi network. If you can't find wifi networks with the phone, your wifi antenna may be damaged.
When using tethering, make sure wi-fi is disabled first (tethering will start it automatically).
Then start up tethering after defining the Eris in the profile settings. Your devices shouldn't have any problems seeing it. I've had up to 3 laptops + an Xbox 360 connected all at once.
whats rom-version you have?
I am using cm7 and barnacle. I can't use any security and had to change the custom wifi adhoc setting to hero/Eris.
Sent from my ERIS using XDA App
If you are trying to tether another device to your Eris, you need to make sure that the 2nd device can see "Adhoc" networks. You may need a different wpa_supplicant file on the 2nd device.
I'm running GSBv4.2 -CM7.1-11152011 with the Wireless Tether v2.0.2. I've used Barnacle on other ROMs also.
here i got this with a rom and it's worked on every rom i've ever flashed since i got it. copy both of em, use the the app with the green logo

Only tether suggestion that worked for me. Major props. Cm7 rom
Im using the Mac rom mr8 sr1 and I figured out the problem.. it was working the whole time, I jus was trying tether it to another android and a PSP.. and neither one of those support ad-hoc. So I flashed a wifi supplicant that lets the android connect to ad-hoc! I still havnt found a way to push the tether on an Eris into an infrastructure tether yet... so if anybody's seen that work, let me know.. I use both Samsung galaxy s and the eris.. it would be nice to have the Eris push out a normal AP, and not ad-hoc

Edit: I have noticed that Barnacle works better for me through the Droid X2, I don't know what everyone else is using, but this is what has worked the best for me.
I too am trying to tether my x2 running eclipse rom to my player with barnacle. I tried open garden bluetooth and it wouldn't work. Can you explain how to replace the thing with barnacle? Thanks!
It found my Optimus-V hotspot in a few seconds, just using the hotspot widget in Widgetsoid2. I've onlyhad the need/desire to tether once since I have wifi at home and work. Not supposed to tether with VM anyway
Ditto to the above, what works for me is using wireless hotspot app. I have my Epic 4g running a custom ROM called CleanGB http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1344074 and it includes a 'custom' WireLess Hotspot that I leave running so my wife's Galaxy Player 5 can jump on my 3G/4G via WiFi. (don't get me going though on the slug and almost non-existent Sprint 4G)
Find it interesting (and frustrating) that Barnacle calls itself a ' WiFi tether' but is actually a wireless hotspot. Tether in cell phone speak has always implied a wired connection between your phone and another device. Hope those lines don't start blurring.
Best tethering (phone to computer via USB cable) IMHO is hands down PDANet from a company called June Fabrics. It works seemlessly in Windows XP and Windows 7. Even if your provider charges you to use tethering via their Android or Blackberry app, PDANet can hide the data connection.... They also make one for the Mac OSx environment I believe.

how would you do wired tethering to a tablet? foxfi is only needed for wireless i belive. if you want to do wireless tethering just get wifi tether. works great
I am trying easy tether lite.
Basically its connected to PC and app is working, it works on websites. However things like ssh connections dont appear to even try to use the connection they still go over my wired broadband connection. According to the FAQ only UDP is blocked, so I have emailed the author to see if its a true internet sharing app or just for web.
After a bit of research, I have found the following methods for full, free USB tethering with no limitations and for free USB reverse tethering:
I found this app for USB tether. It is entirely free and allows https and all. It took me a bit of time to figure out how to make it work: I did it by going to Chrome Settings > Advanced settings > Proxy settings > LAN settings > Use proxy server for LAN; Adress: localhost; Port: 8080.
Then I started the connection from the app, also set to port 8080. Although Windows never recognized any internet connection, it worked in Chrome.
To switch back to my DSL internet or Wi-Fi, I had to disable the proxy again.
For the reverse tether, I found this Windows tool. It allows reverse tethering with nothing installed on the phone (although root is needed). The only problem with it is that the Play Store is unable to download over its connection, but one can always go to play.google.com in the phone's browser and download things from there.
easy tether does actually work on everything, I paid for it now.
I got no idea if any free apps that have full tethering. CM7 rom supposedbly has it but for some reason the option isnt on my phone's version of CM7.
