Is there a good tutorial for setting up openvpn on the galaxy 7510? I am on tasks rom. I have cm7 on my phone and openvpn works great. I can't seem to get it working on this device.

I'm not sure exactly how openvpn works but I can tell you that all of the vpn software I've ever used has disabled my wifi radio. Call it a security feature. Don't take my word for it though. What specifically seems to be the problem other than "it just won't work"?

I been doing some research on my own and I want to find out if I can use Titanium backup to remove the System file "Entitlement"? Is this is the same file use for Entitlement Check for Wi-Fi Tethering? On my Samsung i897 I just need to delete the similar file to enable Wi-Fi tethering to bypass validation with AT&T. I wonder if this will work the same way on Atrix. Anyone done it? Does this work? I don't want to brick my phone on something I not familiar with yet. Thanks.
prolly will break the vending.apk doing that but freeze it first and see what breaks if it does unfreeze it :screwy:

Never mind. I got too chicken to try and installed barnacle wi-fi tether instead. Its working beautifully on my Atrix4G.

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.
Currently I'm using LS ics aosp mr3 and sometimes I switch to tshed 1.6 when I have a hankering for Netflix usability.
It is my understanding that root+rom=free tethering.
1. Do all roms have built in tethering without having to dl a 3rd party app?
2. For those that do (if not all) why do people use 3rd party apps anyway? Is there a benefit?
3. I notice LS doesn't seem to have built in *wired* tethering but I still have a paid 3rd party app for that from my unrooted days. So question is, is there any speed advantage to using wired tethering over wireless?

Yes, root + ROM = Free tethering
Answer to number 1: No, not all ROMs include a tethering app. You can download one from the playstore if this may be the case. Usually the tethering app included with a ROM is a third party app, but is there because the developer would suggest its use for that ROM... usually because they tested wifi tethering on their ROM with that specific app.
Answer to number 2: Third party tethering apps are in play store in case the ROM didn't include a tethering app. Also, if you use Titanium Backup to backup your working wifi tethering app and its settings, it's less of a pain to just restore that previous tethering app and its data so that you can skip setting up the app again.
Answer to number 3: I'm unaware of speed advantages of internet by tethering wired compared to wireless. Just see what works best for you.

Ok. Number 2 comes from LS, it has built in tethering however I noticed people in the dev section under the LS thread talking about getting "wifi tether" from the market and making it use the nexus one settings and all that and I'm thinking... why bother with all that if its got its own.
Thank you sir.

You can try it if you want to and see how it works for you.
But no, I highly doubt there is a internet speed difference between wired and wireless tethering. A mobile data connection is a mobile data connection, no matter how it's shared.
I suppose some people just don't like using wires, which is understandable.
I haven't tried the built in tether yet but the cm7 tether wasn't as good at keeping a connection as WiFi tether from the market.

Btw. Without starting a new thread, or should I? What is the lightest yet fully working AOSP Gbread rom? I've been using tshed but even that seems to have a bit of unnecessary stuff packed in. Like Rom Manager for instance...I'm on 4ext now so that's useless. I'm not brave enough to go removing system apps. I don't know what's necessary.
Sent from my ThunderBolt using xda app-developers app
I think sfkcm7 is the lightest. To delete a system app all you need to do is download a root file explorer line es file explorer and give it root permissions in the settings and mount system as read/write. Then navigate to /system/app and delete the apps that you dont use like Rom manger.

Ok. Deleted rom manager from system/app, rebooted. Its still installed and not removeable. Now what? Please forgive my newbishness.

Hi, My acer netbook with windows 8 is not reading my wifi tether, Is any body also having the same problem? is a fix for it? any help will be appreciate. thanks
I successfully used tether on viper 2.0.2 using a win 8 platform with no issues. For me, it worked fine when I tested connectivity.

hello, did you change anything on the setings for the device-profile?
There are a few things that need to be varified your best bet is to look here:
http://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether/issues/detail?id=244
This has info for troubleshooting varios OS, version and hardware issues. Start there, and you can always post there for support if necessary.
I am also assuming you are using the built in wifi tether but depends on version ROM you are running, tweaks and mods etc. The version you have may not be compatible and there are many options here:
http://www.pcworld.com/article/261928/the_ultimate_android_tethering_guide.html
Between those two, you should have no problems. For me, I made no modifications to my profiles, literally plug and play for most part.
Good luck

I cant seem to get on tor with this phone no matter how hard I try. Anyone have a solution if u have it working?

Im rooted and on a stockish rom. There was some kitkat errors they were working through I think. It isnt fixed obviously.
Orbot quit for me after Android 4.1.2. I got no response from app developers and even installing app updates never fixed anything.
Get Anonify from the Play Store and use with the stock browser for anonymous Web browsing. I just tested the app on my N3 running 4.4.2 and I was successfully connected to Tor. I used the Anonify app a lot more on my old S3 though. No issues at all.
