Does anyone know of a custom ROM that allows me to use both T-Mobile TV and free tethering?
I've tried using the T-Mobile bloater .zip on BulletProof, but that won't allow me to use the TV app (saying my device isn't compatible).
Before anyone says anything, yes, I've tried searching.
Download the tv app from the market...it'll work if you're a t-mobile customer. Tethering works for me....look in the Amaze>Themes and Applications Section..there is a thread.

I tried downloading the app on BulletProof, but still gives me the same thing.

I haven't used BP so I'm not too sure if the string is correct.

Hey guys,
Now before everyone chimes in with "Barnacle", "Wireless Tether from Google Code" or "just add a custom APN"... I have tried all of these methods including using Root Explorer and SQL Lite to edit the APNs and none of them will enable me to tether over wifi. I'm on the latest version of Ginger Blur and using the Atrix in Australia on the Telstra Next G network.
Any help would be appreciated, thanks

Under the .db file, ensure that where it says default, add tether after it (default,tether) make sure its the telstra line though. Thats all i did to mine from memory. Also ensure airplane mode is on

I use the WIRED tether from google code, works like a dream. Wired tether doesn't eat your battery and helps with heat since you wont be using wifi too.

No real need for wired tether as I'm wanting to tether with my iPad.

Tried this, didn't work. This is probably going to be a deal breaker for me .
Bump?
Looks like I'll be going back to the Inspire, I need to be able to tether for my iPad 2.
Hi, I have a stupid question about tethering... I have always used wireless tether for root from the market, but I have Ken's Alien rom, and im wondering since it has tethering, can I just use the mobile hotpot feature without fear of AT&T finding out and charging me?

How easy is this question? Doesn't anyone know haha

Well i have read then at&t can generally find out but it is easier to be caught with an iphone I should know because I used to have an iphone 4 flash a c a tricks I say using an app which state that I can hide tethering.
Other ways of hiding your tethering include not using it for a long session
Thought I was caught using tethering on the iphone I still haven't been notified on my atrix
But the common consensus is that there is no real way to hide your tethering from at&t unless they really have a reason to look into your account

Use Barnacle.............it works fine and is safer than using the APN for tethering.

<edit> I prefer WiFi Tether, but it doesn't appear to work with 2.3.4............at least not for me.
<edit 2> Just realized WiFi Tether has been updated: http://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether/downloads/list.
This works with me now. You will get an access control error, but ignore that and you will be fine. Verified working on my laptop here at work. Got 3.5Mbps down and 1Mbps up which is usual dl/ul speed for me at work.
Yeah, wifi tether for root is working flawlessly, but it would be nice to just use mobile hotspot from the phone haha.

Mobile hotspot worked for me. I did the sqlite edit and clicked on the mobile hotspot app and played around with netflix on my 3DS. I had at&t send me a text of my data usage and it still says unlimited. I would imagine if it didn't work they would have changed me over to a 4gb plan.

I did the entitlement check change and use the mobile hotspot which works great. Haven't had at&t say anything to me even when I used custom apn method before.

I am looking for the App that AT&T installs (bloatware), that autoconnects to AT&T WIFI Hotspots (the apk was called wpa something or the other in Gingerbread Roms), but I'd like it from the ICS version of the OS. Does anyone have that version? I assume they still include it.
There is a thread a few posts down titled AT&T hotspots manager that has some info on this topic. Don't know how to copy links in this app, but it's not very far down at all.

The biggest reason I'm looking for an att version of the hox+ Rom is to use tethering while at work. I don't abuse my data it's just real handy to browse when big brother isn't watching
As of now I rooted my hox+ an nd installed foxfi With the add on, but I'm still getting the message "to enable tethering call 611 or go-to my wireless.com
Anyone know of any solutions

Did fox fi ask for root?
See this post to enable wifi tethering. I am using the built-in tether, but I'm pretty sure this would work for Foxfi too.
Update: tried the method at the top of the linked thread, which was to delete ATT_Hotspot .apk and the .odex, with a restart. Neither Fox fi nor the HTC hot spot works yet. Still tells me to call 611.
Trying the second method using the script editor soon.

Let us know if it works for you after doing the FULL steps including the script editor. Just hate to pay any amount of cash to do probably this one thing with as i know nothing about script editing, lol! Would love to have this work on our devices and get away from the AT&T high rates they put on their customers! Thanks
Anyone know how to enable the native tether function w/o purchasing the ATT plan? I have rooted my device. I am running a customed kernel from M7 forum. I don't want to switch the kernel (I knew there is a mod in this forum). Anyone know how to enable the function manually?
Hmmmm let me see, wouldn't this be located in development under "wifi hotspot"?

Yeah you can flash CyanogenMod M7 nightly and then you can tether using AndroidAP which comes default.
