Hi...how do you tether? I have the att 4glte/wifi tablet and I am so freakin clueless. I think I rooted the tablet because the superuser app works.
Doesn't work on my rooted AT&T SAMSUNG-SGH-I957.
I get a message that it is not supported.

I am on version (according to Titanium) Barnacle Wifi Tether 0.6.7 (evo) and it works perfectly...
I am also rooted and o/c @ 1.728GHz
Are you at least able to install it? You get the error when running the app? Or when exactly?

I can install the app but when I run it, I get the message "not supported". Do I need to change any settings on the Tab? I saw this "(check under setting skip wpa_supplicant)" in the post above but I don't know what that means.
Thanks for the help.

It's really weird. I can't get into settings. I tap the setting icon (the multiple stacked lines) and nothing happens. Are you using the free version?

Yeap, free version from the market... Try this... On android... Settings> Application> Manage Applications... Scroll down and select Bernacle, then force stop and clear data, then uninstall... Restart tablet and download app from market again and try again... Let me know how it goes...

Found this thread on xda's "Droid RAZR General" forum that mentions conflicting results with a workaround for the TWC app preventing the livetv feature if you have root.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1604411
Just want to point out that on my AT&T NOTE (Seraphim First Flight ROM) renaming the /system/app/Superuser.apk then clearing the TWC app from memory was successful. Was then able to use the TWC Live TV feature.
A script to do this automatically is probably warranted but I'm sure some of the great minds here on xda will beat me to it !
Worked fine for me on DAGr8 alpha II, no moding needed
Just wonder if any way to get live TV working when off my home wifi network.

Anyone tried "hide my root" for this? I can't test it since I don't live in a TWC services area.

renamed it to just "SU"... as long as its not "superuser" the app wont see it
So I downloaded it, went to install and it won't let me click install, I can only click cancel?!? Install doesn't highlight or respond. I've had this happen with random apps off the amazon appstore as well. Wtf?

Wifi tether from the market works. Just set your device profile to generic ics.
this reply comes to you by way of Wifi Tether Beta14... hit the menu and choose Generic ICS under device profile.... i've always had good luck hitting menu again while in settings and "reload binaries" after choosing that device... sometimes i change the LAN settings to a different IP.. (especially with PS3) any change i make is followed by "reload binaries." don't know if it's necessary just a habit ive gotten used to.... either way, im tethered as i type this (stock rooted.. stock rooted unlocked... viper rom) all have worked... I live in the Virgin Islands... gots to have the tether

Me too! I asked Sprint chat and they said it shouldn't be working unless I pay extra for it. Not sure why it works.
I stupidly unrooted and updated my GSII to official ICS update and lost the ability to use wifi tethering. Am I now gonna have to wait for someone to come along and create a rom for the new release that will allow a bypass of the tethering check or are there a couple simple lines in a file somewhere I can change.
Thanks for any info...as it stands, im now stuck working instead of watching netflix on my tethered GTab 10.1
UPDATE: I did some searching around and found that by deleting TetheringManager2.apk in system/app it should allow tethering to go through (I used Root Explorer to do it). Unfortunately, that doesnt seem to work. When I go to enable wifi tethering, the screen goes blank, everything stops responding for about 10 seconds and then it comes back saying settings has stopped responding. So...did I do it wrong or does it look like ATT changed something around with their ICS release?
Tethering is disable in stock ics. There is a gp app that will allow you to do so

This is a great wifi app, but you need to be rooted to use it.
wifi_tether_v3_1-beta14
I can't figure out how to get free tethering on the new update, the only program I see on tb is TetheringProvision 1.05.09 and freezing/uninstalling it just makes the screen go black when I try to turn on portable hotspot. Thanks a bunch!
Hit the Play Store and download FoxFi (free app). Will provide the same functionality without the crashing.

I've used FoxFi in the past and it worked well until I got my Mega. I've heard that a fix is to boot into recovery and clear the cache partition but it is failing for me.

Stop the native WiFi tethering client running and use Mobile Hotspot from the play store. Use the one with the green droid peering at you from the bottom of the app icon. When settings fail just ignore.

Tried that. It still says "Dial 611 and sign up for teathering service" when I try to activate. Same thing with FoxFi... :crying:
i have found apps for free tethering.. See google play store.

No bueno. With that app I still get "Mobile hotspot is unavailable. To enable mobile hotspot on this device, go to att.com/mywireless or dial 611". And the little green dude spins forever when I click "Ok".

ok. No tension. I will try next only for you..
If you are on ATT, it comes with a Mobile Hotspot app....unless you turned it off.
Once you go in to the app, it will have to be configured and assigned a name. You will be given a password to use.
It works very well. I use my Mega as a hotspot for my wifi Tab 3. Just have to remember that while it's on, you will be using your data!
