I was playing with my friends evo lastnight and wantted to see if I could connect wifi to the ps3 and I was..so I downloaded a few tether apps on my MoPho to see if I would be able to tether to the system but it wouldnt show my phone so I played with the settings and still no luck..i looked around on a few sites and everyone is saying I cant be in ad hoc,is there anyone that has tried this and got it to work or is the phone just not built for tethering out side of ad hoc?

Wifi tether beta 6 . Change the network to infrastructure . Now, I'm not sure if it will work on the Photon, but it works on a ton of other devices. Not sure why it wouldn't.
Sent from my MB855 using xda premium
I use tether beta 6 also. I set the device-profile to "samsung galaxy s" and the setup-method to "Netd (master)." I also have the routing fix enabled, but I dont know if that is necessary. It will give an error at startup, but everything works. You should then be able to connect your PS3. It works for mine.
This may be a dumb question but, why? Even if you could play games on Photon, PS3 is across the room? Again, maybe I'm missing something (easy to do!)

It lets them get on Sprint's Network with the PS3 so they can sign into the Playstation Network, and maybe play games if they connection is fast enough where they are. Does 4G work with this or are you stuck on Sprint's crappy 3G?
Ty all to posted,ill try to connect when I get off work...but sprints crappy 3g is better then my wifi wich with me living right next a tower it shouldnt be so bad

If it helps..
First i'll start by sayin i'm a COMPLETE NOOB, But managed to connect to ps3 and psps.I have root Inspire and using wifi tether 3.1 beta11. Inside the settings it had 8.8.8.8 primary dns 8.8.4.4 alternate....I simply put those same dns number in settings of ps3 and psps. Worked fine,although signal in my house is terrible(3 bars/edge) I too checked routing fix, but i think the dns thing is what really did the trick. Also, just to let you know I didnt change any other settings in ps3/psp. Hope it helps

Does anyone know of have or can make an APK that allows us people in 4G area's to use apps that REQUIRE a WIFI signal like Order & Chaos to play to make it think its on WIFI so it will see the 4G network and play the game. A sort of wifi emulator for the phone. I know i could have a friend share their network connection. No one here is on sprint with me at work so not going to hog their bandwidth.
Thanks in advance either way.

No i dont want a wifi tether program or at least the normal one. That i do have and that did not work. I need it to tell the phone its running that it has a wifi signal when it does not. and then pretend to be the wifi signal but pass info thru the 3g/4g
Bump.
I remeber my iPhone able to spoof a WiFi connection using its 3G connection. Surprised there's no way for Android to do this.

I just rooted mine today. And I am noticing that getting a client to pull a DHCP assigned IP is somewhat quirky.
I got my Transformer tablet to pull an IP couple of times now. Initially I dsiabled running apps that may be trying to use wifi - Xmarks, Skype, etc... So try nuking some running apps.
It may be that I merely need the tell the transformer to forget the 'AndroidTether' SSID, and reconnect to it. That seemed to work the second time, I'm going to try with my some other clients and see if I can make a tad more relaible.

Yeah, actually after I posted, I looked at some other search results, and saw wwjoshdew's thread (that dude is excited!). And enabled both options. I type this via my EVO 3D using my work laptop (XP pro), and can say that my Transformer tablet, and my kids' iPod touches have all connected using wireless tether. (Got two laptops for the kids under the tree - this will pay big dividends on the next road trip.)
Just need to lock it down now. And go donate.

2) to wireless tether dudes
3) to teamwin recovery dudes

For some ROMs though, no matter what you do, Wifi Tethering just doesn't work.
Guys this is what i did
Change device - evo 3d
No wifi encryption
Enable access control - unchecked
Clamping and routing fix - checked

could always try barnacle tether as well, that one works for me when I couldn't get wireless tether working.
barnacle works well for an adhoc... i also have a problem connecting at home with any wifi app even the hotspot hack.. it was driving me bonkers but... when i wasn't home, it would work...
i finally came to the conclusion that because i live in a condo and there are 10 different wireless networks. those routers seem to squash my evo3d's network.. did the same with the OG evo.. making it hell to try to tether without a usb cable... so guys if your in an area with alot of wifi networks try wifi tethering elsewhere and see if it works.. hope this helps..
Just thought I'd chime in here and say the reason your not connecting to your wifi app of choice or the hotspot hack is not due to there being multiple wireless networks around you.

This could definitely be it, I have a Vizio TV that came with a wireless subwoofer and rear surround speakers. For the life of me I couldn't figure our why my laptop could never connect to my home router when I was in that room. Some days it would work great but most it wouldn't connect or I would get terrible throughput. I even replaced the router once. It never dawned on my since I almost always have the TV on when I'm on my laptop that the wireless subwoofer would be the problem until I turned the TV off and my network instantly improved. Turned TV back on and crap network. I unplugged the wireless card from the TV and haven't had a problem sense.

That just means your sub woofer may have not been magnetically shielded. Also you could have just changed your routers frequency or just moved it to a different location. But a wireless sub woofer interfering with a router is understandable. But not being able to connect to a wireless network because of to many wireless networks is not true.

update to my problem,
i downgraded to 107, it now says "internet connection", and i noticed my pc and mobile phone is "paired" or linked, but when i tried to use internet, it does not do anything and the internet now says "no internet", i see that on tether app there is some upload and download going on like .4kb once in a while (then it will say "no internet" on my wifi ), i cant browse the net, if i click diagnose (int explorer) it says DNS............. again......

Of course I was! haha. I freaking love being able to tether for free!
Ever since my Samsung Moment in Dec of 2010!!!
I used wireless tether without any problem on my old droid X, but now I'm having connection issues. My Asus transformer can see my Rezound just fine and connect, but my in dashoard Galaxy Tab doesn't see it at all.
I've tried the current beta of Wireless Tether, 2.0.7, Barnacle, and Open Garden, all with the same results.
We need to nail down what specific settings those successfully tethering are using.
Please list the following.
1. What app you are using.
2. What settings you are using (device presets, clamping, ect.).
3. What you are successful in tethering wirelessly to.
I'm going to run a few more tests, and post mine.
I don't mean to ask a dumb question but these apps just allow you to use your phones 4g on a laptop, etc. ? Are they free if you have unlimited data?
Why aren't people using Mobile hotspot to tether or am I getting confused?
To use the mobile hot spot you have to pay for it

Thanks for the post. I really need to know this too. I've tried everything but still a no go.
According to wiki ad hoc needs the same channels to work. For the people that do have it working what channels are you using in ad hoc mode.
Definition
To set up an ad-hoc wireless network, each wireless adapter must be configured for ad-hoc mode versus the alternative infrastructure mode. In addition, all wireless adapters on the ad-hoc network must use the same SSID and the same channel number.
from my newly unlocked Rezound
The problem is what devices you try to use to connect to your phone's mobile connection. I tried connecting with my Asus laptop (Windows 7) and it wouldn't connect correctly. I tried connecting with my gf's windows xp laptop and it works perfectly fine!
If you have questions about wireless tethering, please go do a bit of searching and reading, there are hundreds if threads that describe what it is.
This is a thread so we can get it working right.

I fought for days over this before this release and from my trial and endless errors Ive come to realize (very very long story short) for the time being the best work through is using "OpenGarden" from the market. Don't change any settings. Just have an open connection and use access control. Like I said. Long story short, the issue lies within encryption. Leave it open and use access control. Hope this helps.

Download the latest version here: http://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether/
Then place it on your SDcard and install. Make sure your phone will allow unknown sources by going to settings > application settings > and check unknown sources.
After the app installs open it up. Hit the menu soft key and select settings. In the settings, set the "Device-Profile" to Samsung Galaxy S2 and then set the "Setup-Method" to Netd (master). This will somehow enable the built-in mobile hotspot, which will give you infrastructure mode, which pretty much all computers like.
I also have MSS clamping checked. I dont have the Routing Fix checked. You can change the SSID and security settings if you want. Now, exit out of the settings and start tethering by touching the symbol in the middle of the screen. Now get on to your computer and find the network. Everything should work from there.
Good luck.

I just tried with "open garden wi-fi tether" on Stock with Jokers Higpro kernel and it works just fine.
If I remember proper when I ran the stock kernel tethering would connect but not transfer data. Kinda sound like what your problem is.

By the way, I am also stock and rooted. Running 198_7 straight up with some bloat removed and wireless tether works fine for me.
Does anyone know any apps that creates a Wifi AP? I am not talking about an Adhoc network that all apps I have used create, I want it to work like native tethering.
I am asking because I am using polish blood preRC, and I really want to use it full time, the only thing is native tethers do not work and all apps create an Adhoc network.
Normally this isn't a problem, however I wish to use my PS3 over my phone's 3G connection, this is where the problem comes in, the PS3 does not see Adhoc networks so most, if not all tether apps will not work.
I have tried to use connectify while I have a usb tether connected however the PS3 cannot connect to the internet, I also would prefer to avoid using my laptop as an AP.
So anyone know a decent Wifi tether app that will create an AP like native tethering, not an Adhoc network
Are you sure that PS3 cannot connect to Ad hoc networks?
Here is an article about it http://www.ehow.com/how_6808376_can-connect-ad-hoc-network_.html
and it says PS3 can connect to Ad hoc networks.
Check if you configured everything properly.
Also Wireless tether app supports AP mode but only on certain handsets (HTC Evo 3D for example). It looks like it doesn't support our device.
Mine has never seen an adhoc network from my phone, guess I'll check it tonight when I can get on it.

Don't use this ICS. It's still in very early stage of developement. It's only for money.. If you really need a ICS on your Swift, then try AOKP 4.0.3. by DevSwift. Probably an update will come very soon. I was using it on my swift for 1-2 weeks, and I was happy with it. Now I changed the whole phone.

Sorry for the mislead, PS3 doesn't work with ad hoc networks.
But here is a possible solution:
1)Download latest WiFi tether beta http://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether/downloads/detail?name=wifi_tether_v3_1-beta11.apk
2)Open it and then go to Settings
3)Change Device-Profile to Google NexusOne
4)Change Setup-Method to Netd (master)
5)Start tethering and that's it
Note: I haven't tested this on Mike's CM9 but it did work on CM7, so try it, and tell us if it works.
Just to warn you there is probability to get kernel panics with this settings.
EDIT: I have tested this on Mike's CM9 and can't get it to work. Simply wait till Mike fixes WiFi tethering, or flash CM7 or some other ROM.
You can try a couple of options...
1. Hosted Network Starter
Free: Simple hostpot on your pc with non configurable DHCP
www.nirsoft.net/utils/wifi_hotspot_starter.html
2. WiFi Tether Router
Paid: Android app for rooted phones with full featured DHCP, VPN, etc
