Even with the new kernels, Barnacle wireless tether remains broken for me, as it has been with any MESMERIZE kernel. So back to the EB01 Voodoo kernel for me. Any idea what's causing it to not work? Anyone else having this problem? Anyway, awesome job on the kernel, JT!!!

"Wireless Tether" for root in the market is working perfectly for me. Try that.
SC 2.9.2 w/jt's new EC10 voodoo kernel
2nd that. Wireless tether has been much more consistent for me.

My gps will not lock at all since I have flashed from nero to bionix v and now 1.2. I don't use my gps often so it is not the end of time and I follow som's directions to the letter when ever I flash any team whiskey roms and I have never had any bugs until now. Does anyone have a gps fix?

Try flashing a different modem. My GSP and data were both crap with KA7. They were both much better with KA6.

+1 ^. You could also try GPS restore. Downloaded from the market. Haven't used it myself cause my GPS has always worked. But I have seen alot of people use it and it fixed their issue.

i need a new rom. asop 1.1 is starting to get a little bit old for me. i would like 2.2.1, i NEED wifi calling, and NO voodo but the ability to use oclf lag fix. any suggestions? thanks in advance
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
If you NEED wifi calling then 2.2.1 is out of the question.
Also I would highly suggest you to use voodoo instead of OCLF. It is much more stable and even though it scores lower on quadrant it is indeed faster. Don't be scared of it .
So here are a list of suggestions
Axura
Bionix
Trigger
yea bro oclf sucks big time.. i recommend you to use trigger 2.8! ive been using trigger for a while now, and its the best rom out there in my opinion! dont be scared to use voodoo youll grow to love it =D
okay so if i stick with 2.2 are there any options for wifi calling? i looked at your suggestions and i like them but it doesnt seem they have wifi calling availiable. if they do are they built in or do i need to flash them seperately? if i need to flash it seperately how do i go around doing that?

With Trigger, I have an app called Bloater. Open it up and at the bottom you will be able to just press "Install" on Wifi Calling and done.
With Bionix I think you have to flash the wifi calling separately. You do that just like you flash a ROM except you choose the wifi calling zip instead.
alright cool thanks for the help, il think il go with trigger! does the bloater app come preinstalled?

A handful of my co-workers on various Verizon Android phones were saying that Gingerbread updates stop tethering apps from working, even if rooted and side-loaded.
I would like to try CM7 since it just released, but I can't lose my tethering! Am I worrying about nothing?
I'm using WiFi tether on CM7 and it works fine. You shouldn't have to worry since CM7 is not built by Verizon or anything, so they can't block tethering apps in the OS.

Can you link the wifi tether you use please, and let me know if you changed any settings. I'm rocking MIUI, not sure if that matters or not but doesn't hurt to try.
Thanks

I'm using this WiFi tether app: http://android-wifi-tether.googlecode.com/files/wifi_tether_v3_1-beta2.apk
Once installed, I went to the settings, and changed the Device-Profile to Google NexusOne. Works great and it shouldn't matter if it's CM7 or MIUI.
I'm on the newest miui using wifi tether app with no problems

They are blocking tethering on stock roms, so if you are running CM7/MIUI etc you will be fine.
You may have to sideload. Verizon asked Google to hide certain apps, like PDAnet, from the market. This violates their net neutrality agreement, and they are being sued over it. Verizon stock updates are also set to tattle on you if you tether. If running touchwiz, I believe you need a modified kernel with dummy tether.

For devices the Verizon is giving an official Gingerbread build, they are slipping in ways to disable Wireless Tether. It's also hidden in the market, but it's easy to find an APK to install yourself. However, if you're running Gingerbread on the fascinate, you're doing it on a custom ROM, which doesn't have that nasty bit of Verizon code.

I am 99% certain I know the answer to this, but I just want to be 100% sure;
I am running SuperClean 3 Milestone 1, TW Launcher, and KGB Kernel with Voodoo enabled on my Fascinate. I just installed http://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether/downloads/detail?name=wireless_tether_2_0_7.apk, but haven't tried it yet. Is Verizon going to know if I am tethering with this configuration?
Thanks!
I think it honestly depends.
If you are using it to seach the web and do basic surfing than i dont think it matters to them.
If you start streaming Netflicks at HD quality or Bit Torrents [heavy bandwidth], they might suspect something.
I have used both the wifi tether and barnacle on ICS and GB for quick and dirty usage and i have never had VZW say a thing to me.
That is just my personal experience.
My $0.02:
I am running SC3 Milestone 2 and the KGB FA16 Kernel and have had no trouble tethering with my tablet or laptop using wifi tether 3.1 Beta 6.
You can pick your Beta flavor for the app using the link CCampos provided.
I have not tethered. Though I want to. (Hotspot feature) don't want Verizon to suspect something and then charge me.
Can't they charge me if they find out?
If I'm running CM7, will they still know?

My (very limited) understanding as of right now is that a custom ROM alone is not enough to keep Verizon in the dark. A think you need a custom kernel as well to be safe, and never use the Verizon hot spot app. Am I right?

All other discussion aside, clockwork mod has put a new app out that allows usb tethering without root on any ROM and can not be blocked by any carrier. Just search cwm or clock work mod in the market

Maybe Verizon can't block you from tethering with this app, but can they monitor if you are? And then hit you with a charge later, or drop you from service?
My. 02 cents.....I use an App called Open Garden Wifi with no problems at all.
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App
Just throwing this out there: I've never seen any *confirmed* reports of Verizon retroactively charging customers for "illegal" tethering, or ending your service/contract. Not sure why people get so worried about getting caught, it's not like the phone police are gonna come take you to jail.
If I'm wrong on this and Verizon is in fact charging those who tether (who don't pay Verizon's tethering charge) or terminating their contracts, I'd love to see evidence to the contrary.
I ran up 18 gb last month. From Xbox live and other teathering because its my only access. Never have issues.

The stock Mobile Hotspot app works just fine.
I do not want to switch roms....everything is working great for me on Liquid 3.2.
Stock mobile hotspot will want you to pay if you use it won't it?
Go to clockworkmod.com and check out kush's wired tether app. It's supposed to be really good, and you don't even need root.

This is the one I was excited about when I first learned about it weeks ago, but it does nothing on my pc....I click ok or start or whatever it is and nothing works........
Yeah that new kush wired tether is garbage just like pdanet and klink. You have to install stuff on every pc you wanna use it on. Ohhhhh wired tether in the description through me off. I suggest scrapping liquid 3.2. It has a couple bugs that they aren't concerned with and has been totally abandoned. Open Garden is the best WiFi tether out there. Try channel 5 and 6 with ThunderShed 1.5. Never had a problem. Was using it today. I recommend wired-tether 1.4 from code.google. So much faster than WiFi. And I loved liquid 3.2 but too many bugs with tethering and a few other must haves.
Good luck.
