Can't get wired tether to work under Windows 7 x64. In 2.2.2 or in 2.3.3.

Yep, tried both on my main install of Win 7 x64 and through a virtualbox version (Win 7 x86), neither work with the lastest moto drivers installed. Have not tried with Linux yet.

I Don't Think I've Used The Wired Tether Yet At All On My X2, But I Have It Installed In Case. It's Possible This App Doesn't Work With X2(Highly Doubt) Or Verizon/Google Is Blocking It.

First, your caps are distracting.. Your keyboard just capitalizing every word, at first I thought you were spelling something.
And those that have wired tether working, did you need drivers for them to work on a pc? I was just hoping it could be just plugged in and go..

Just search Google for Pdanet I can't post

Don't you have to install drivers on the client computer to use pdanet?
EDIT: Yes, drivers required.

i still have yet to be able to connect via wireless tether...no matter what version i use...
Using 3.0 pre 14 and it just works.
Maybe you guys should try and verify you are rooted....use root check from the market.
Thinking you are rooted and being rooted are 2 different things....no?

I installed the market version of Wifi Tether (currently 2.0.7):
https://market.android.com/details?id=android.tether
It worked for me to a limited extent, but many features, including big ones like encryption and infrastructure mode aren't compatible with the Photon.
here is the link to the beta that isn't in the market yet. Works perfect and has encryption as well as other bells and whistles.

Most android tablets can't connect to adhoc networks. The photon creates a adhoc network. You have to root your tablet and change the wpa_supplicant file. Search the tablet forums for "wpa_supplicant" instructions.

The transmit power is set to 0mw as default.....you have to go to settings to start transmitting and recieving.....i set it to friggin 30mw and it worked fine
Thank you!! I've been looking for a good tethering app with my new Photon, and haven't had much success in finding one that works - looking forward to trying this one out!
=)
Interesting that I never noticed this before but I got a No Access Control message when I start Wireless tether.
"Sorry but your kernal does not have all necessary features for the Access Control feature of this application. Access Control will be disabled."
Was using Beta 2 but downloaded the Beta 4 version. After seeing that message I hit ignore and never saw it again.
Anyone else see that message.
TS
OK - so I got it to work - it turns out that some windows 7 drivers are buggy as hell - especially for the intel wireless network cards - I installed a different driver (a generic one as opposed to the actual driver for my wifi card) and tethering now works.
Doesn't wifi tether for root have an infrastructure mode option? I thought it did.
Edit: Nope, it doesn't. Also can't use access control options at this time.

How to get back the orginal MotoBlur Launcher

I acutaly liked the 2.2 motoblur launcher. or whatever was on it before the gingerbread update the in store phone had that and when I got my phone it had already been updated to gingerbread:/ I know I can have like launcher pro and such but I liked the older moto blur
There is no way to downgrade back to 2.2(Froyo) so you'll have to use a 3rd party launcher and try to theme to look similar.

You can flash a fruitcake from the dev forum to downgrade assuming you have an unlocked bootloader
Sent from my MB860 using XDA Premium App
That is another way but then he would be stuck on Froyo instead of GB. I think he just wants the Launcher "look".
EDIT: Sorry, my fault, I just remembered I mentioned downgrading first. Regardless, I wouldn't recommend it.

I have one more ? what about tethering? I got it for one month. But if I get the 2gb plan and tethered would they say anything//?
I don't really understand what you're asking...
Are you talking about "root" tethering? I'm pretty sure it's safe to do.

Well no. I ment by Tethering with the 2GB data plan instead of paying for the 4gb tethering plan
If you do not have the 4GB plan the only way to tether is by rooting or using something like PDANet.

Nope, it would need drivers which don't exist. OTG is really only for external media or HID

My school was far behind. In 1996 when I left, they just got the internet and was for "teachers only". We had commerce (which was typing) and that was about it. In 2000, I still didn't really understand what a C: drive was (Although I could use DOS oddly).

My guess is gonna be a never. I don't see how an app that doesn't use root access can bypass the Verizon check. If I remember what I read correctly that change resided in the framework-res.apk
If rooted/unlocked then yes there is a mod which enables the native tethering
I just try pdanet and it works! just download them in your pc and phone follow the instructions on your pc and boom! Good luck

Yes you can. Pre 4.3 you could use several apps to access the native Hotspot feature with out having to actually have the service. With the 4.3 update all these apps are now broken and there's a message saying you're not subscribed to the Hotspot service.
Awesome thanks for providing the link. Can this be flashed on a stock rom with locked bootloader? I allowed my phone to do the OTA update not thinking about the bootloader lock :? grrrrr. I did get the phone rooted just not unlocked. If odin or stock recovery wont work any idea as to how I could get it on the ohone. Maybe ADB?
I had thought the courts and the FCC had ruled that Verizon couldn't charge it's customers an extra fee for using hotspot anymore. Can anyone confirm/deny?

It was the FCC, and it only applies to people that have a data cap. VZ is still allowed to charge unlimited data folks.

You need a custom recovery to flash that file, and you need an unlocked bootloader(or bootstrap method) to load one onto the phone.

I'd have to defer to someone like runandhide that posted the file, as I have no experience with that.

Reverse Tether Options?

On my phone before last (GS3) I was able to share my computer internet connection via USB. It was called reverse tether but I believe I had to root to enable.
Has anyone had any luck achieving this functionality on the Z3v with or without root?

We are talking about REVERSE tether, which means that we want to use a computer internet connection to have internet on the phone.
It SHOULD be a standard feature as it is so easy to implement ! Some older version of android were allowing this easily and some phone maker were puting this as an option, now it's a hassle with LP !

Hi!
I was also looking for a way to reverse tether on my unrooted device. I could not find anything, so I developed my own solution, ReverseTethering NoRoot. Thread over here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/u/best-apps/app-reversetethering-noroot-t3316716
