I've Googled a bit and unfortunately, am seeing that so far, the Rezound can only perform wifi tethering in ad-hoc mode, not infrastructure mode. Has there been any updates on if it can ever be possible? My device is rooted and the bootloader unlocked. Would flashing a certain rom or kernel make it possible?
Or would my only hope be to pay for the official hotspot feature by Verizon? Its a shame my Droid Charge was able to do this but not the Rezound. Oh, "fragmentation".
not 100% sure what rules are here concerning links to other sites so ill take the link down immediately if its not ok, but this thread on ppcgeeks looks promising:

If you flash one of the ics roms wireless tether beta 11 works in infrastructure mode. My kindle will now connect. Just change the profile to nexus and enable routing fix in settings

When I do that no data seems to be transferring and my computer doesn't find the hotspot. I can't figure it out.
Edit: Ive been trying it on beta 11 on GB roms. Do I need to do it on ICS? I read in another thread that that may be the problem. Just thought I would get some more opinions.
So far only in ics will it work properly

Ive used wireless tether 2.07 fine on my rezound with it rooted... however now that I have ICS i cant get wifi tether to work. Its saying that my computer is connected but my web pages arent loading... wtf?
I'm having the same problem. Worked fine with gingerbread. I switched to CleanRom 2.1 and now I can't tether my kindle.
Did you both install the latest tether beta 11 abd follow Pwned's directions above? I'm on Senseless 2.0 ICS and it works perfectly for me.
I'm on CleanRom 2.1 and wireless tether in AP mode works perfect.
I'm getting random reboots using beta 11. It'll work for 10 min then bam a reboot.

For a kindle you can download an app called zt-180 adhoc switcher. That will allow you to tether in adhoc mode. Just be sure you leave the network named AndroidTether

I have zt-180 installed. That's how I got it working with gingerbread. The Android Tether network shows up but the Kindle just won't connect.
Hmm I'm puzzled then. You changed the profile to galaxy nexus? And enabled routing fix on Wi-Fi tether beta 11? And are on one of the ics roms?
sent from my newly unlocked Rezound
I'm running CleanROM 2.1 and even tho it the EXACT same version (3.whatever beta 11) came installed, it never worked until I uninstalled and reinstalled using a downloaded apk then changed the aforementioned settings.

just tried the new beta version that scrosler included in cleanrom 2.1 and it works. Changing the settings as above, my stock kindle fire sees it (no encryption). Speed tests were very good (15 down, 7-10up).
Got this Rom running last night and I see that it is based on Cleanrom 2.1 which mentions that Wifi Tether was added.
I'm not sure if its supposed to work or was stripped on De-Sensed but whenever I try to turn it on it just grays out and I can't do anything with it. This is the wifi tethering settings in the mobile networks options... I don't see a specific app anywhere. No place for routing or the galaxy nexus options listed in the Cleanrom thread either.
Is this normal or is something wrong?

You'd need to download the wifi-tether app from code.google.com and I believe the version used in CR2.1 is 3.1 beta11. I don't know if Scott did anything else to the app or not. But grab the app, use the settings...should work..??
Keep in mind, there are settings that work good.
Samsung Galaxy Nexus (CDMA/LTE) profile and setup Netd seems to make WiFi tether app function great.

To the OP...Wireless Tether is not a system app. The built-in tethering does not work.

When you install it go to settings and change the device to Galaxy Nexus LTE and enable "Routing Fix".
I have heard setting up an a password for encryption will not allow this to work so using "access control" works for the time being to restrict who can access the network generated by your phone.
EDIT: THIS thread may be more help to you.

As others has stated get the wireless tether app and hit the menu button after you open the tether app go into settings and change device to galaxy nexus and also check the routing fix and you should be good to go,I'm useing it on a stock rooted rom and it works great.
What's weird, is I can't get my xp machine to connect at all. All my other devices work just fine, but I can't figure out what's going on with my laptop and why it won't connect to wifi tether, as it connects just fine to other wireless networks.
I've tried everything too, but to no avail, any have any ideas?

These instructions should work. Just be sure that for #1, you scroll down to the SAMSUNG GALAXY NEXUS (4G_LTE). For some reason, I chose the Google NexusOne (I saw the word nexus and thought it was the right one) at the top of the list and didnt realize that was the wrong one. Once I fixed that, everything worked like a charm! Hope this helps.

now is this for being on a ROM or will it work on stock unlocked as well...
Edit: i finally got it to turn on with no errors, will be testing on my PC when i get home
Now when i go to use it with my PC its just like any wifi connection right? I refreshed the available networks on my.PC and it would.not find it at all.. am i missing something
Is it a windows PC that you are trying to attach to it? Does the tether start up with any errors in the log?
You should be able to see it just like any other router in your list of available networks.
Edit: Just noticed you said it started with no errors. Hmm.
It should just show up in your available networks.
Try manually creating a connection to your ssid (forgot the exact steps to do this, but its somewhere in network settings).
Also, try changing the setup method to the other available methods (ad-hoc, netd)

I am running ICS 3.5 from Scotts, I can not get Tethering to work. I have tried everything listed. I have tried several ICS Roms and it hasnt worked on any of them. The only time it worked for me was right after I unlocked and rooted on the oem rom with barnacle. Since then it has not worked at all. Wifi isnt working either in ICS 3.5 for me. It is stuck on "turning on". Easytether (USB) is working like a charm though. However I would really like wireless tether. I am coming over to the rezound because i lost my thunderbolt. I want to make sure this phone will do all that my rooted Tbolt would before my 14 days are up... that phone was .. OMG AWSOME. If I cant get it to match up to my old Tbolt in useability, I will go back to another Tbolt.
I am thinking that tomorrow I may try learning how to deal with mainver issues and stepping down to RUU_Vigor_VERIZON_WWE_1.02.605.6_Radio_RS_0.95.00.1013r_3161E_9K_NV_8k_1.12_9k_1.83_V_APT_release_221502_signed
Seeing if I can get it working on that, make a backup, then go clean back to an ICS build.
Any suggestions?

srivkin's instructions should work. Be sure to follow them to the T. Also, have you tried different versions of the tether app?
I thought that encryption didn't work with the tether app.
I relocked and reverted back to that RUU I mentioned in the above post this morning, after running the mainver fix. I unlocked, reflashed ra recovery, rooted, uninstalled some VZW bloat and the vzw tether blocker. installed wifi tether and it still wouldnt work, installed barnacle and it works...but it is so slow it is useless really. Easytether still works great. I already miss ICS. I will re-port a clean ICS onto it later this afternoon after ive had time to build out this base one and back up an image of it. I will repost with any progress.
BTW, I tried all of the settings you guys have mentioned and it just isnt hitting it for me, not sure whats up with that, but I will know more maybe after I put ICS back on clean and try it out.

i think i may have found the problem, but not sure. i tried setting up my WIFI on my phone, but when i go to turn it on, i get an "error" that appears right under the wifi check box. anyone know how i can fix this?
Edit: would i be able to do a factory reset to see if it fixes the WIFI issue, i am on stock rooted with amonra, or would i have to do a wipe thru amonra?
ok i finally made the jump to scotts ics rom and everything is working fine... thank you guys for all your information
First of all, sorry if this has been posted.
I just flashed the ICS meanROM yesterday and quickly realized the Wireless Tether did not work.....only the HotSpot worked on it would kick me off of 4G. I did some research and realized that this was a problem being experienced by many.
I came across a thread here on XDA on the Samsung forums and decided to try it out. What do you know? I have wireless tether working on my phone on 4G. Please note I am running meanROM, but supposedly, this works on all ICS roms. Apparently on our phones, if you set the device profile as an Evo 3D, it does not work properly. I take no credit for this, I got it from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1522867
1) Download and install wireless tether from the market.
2) Set the device profile as "Samsung Galaxy Nexus CDMA" or "Generic ICS".
3) Enable routing fix and MMS clamping.
Enjoy!

Most people just set it to "Generic ICS" profile. Pretty obvious profile to try.
Wifi Tether has worked on every ICS ROM I tried since day one. Even if you flashed the dreaded VM Firmware.
Also described in MeanROM ICS OP since he started it.
Generic ICS, mss clamping and routing fix worked for me. Not sure if the latter two are needed, but why mess with something now that it works.
I'm using WiFi tether beta as well.

Tethering not working for me
mswlogo: You said tethering even works of you flashed the dreaded VM firmware.
I flashed the "dreaded VM" software and have not been able to use tethering since.
I have it set up properly, but when I try to start it, it just shows the spinning circle and it sticks like that , in other words it is perpetually trying to start. To the point that I have to force close it to get the app to stop. I have wiped cache and Davlik.
Is there a thread somewhere that will tell me how to get tethering working if I flashed the VM firmware. The threads I have seen all say that the VM firmware update has been known to break tethering. I am waiting for Unknownforce's firmware downgrade fix that is coming soon: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1653777.

1) I didn't even know that profile existed in the app, but I agree......it is obvious and I would have tried it had I seen it.
2) Due to all the BS on these forums, I don't visit as much as I used to. I just signed on after a few weeks and noticed that there were a bunch of ICS roms available with4G and the camera working and was just excited to be able to flash one. I read about the VM issues, but didn't experience it since I never put that on my phone.
3) If it was listed in the meanROM OP, I must have read right over it. However, when I searched to find a fix, I found a lot of recent threads being started in many different forums were people were asking about wireless tether issues on ICS. When I came across this fix and saw it worked, I figured I'd post it and maybe it would help someone out.

First thing I did after flashing VM Firmware and CleanROM ICS was test Wifi tether.
Wifi tether worked fine. But I lost VPN and that is how I discovered I lost it.
In the process of trying to get VM Firmware off my phone, it got worse and worse.
Until eventually I had no data at all.
So it depends where you're at with the Virgin Mobile Firmware Virus . If you still have Data I believe WIFI Tether should work fine with the correct settings.
Router Fix is required. MSS Clamp works either on or off but I set it on, I've seen in teh past when it was required too.
Finally Got It Working

Thanks for the response. I actually just got it to work. I, like you, thought it must be a glitch bc of the VM firmware. So I did a clean install of the latest MeanRom ICS (v1.4). Once I got everything loaded back, I checked Wi-Fi Tether. It wouldn't work, but the app was not getting hung trying to start like before. It would start but no uoload/download data was registering and my wi-fi only tablet would see my phone but could not connect to it.
I read on a thread about CleanRom that SuperSU and Tether on ICS don't always play well together, so I cleared data on SuperSU and then disabled it and downloaded Superuser. Still no tether,so next I updated busy box (from 1.18.0 to 1.20.0). I then re-enabled SuperSU since it is cooked into MeanROM , then uninstalled Superuser. I ran WiFi Tether again regiving permissions bc I had cleared data on SuperSU and Voila, it is now working perfectly.
I honestly don't know it it was the act of disabling SuperSU clearing the settings,and then re-enabling it, or updating BusyBox, or all of the above in the right order. But it is working! Maybe this will help someone else.
I selected "Generic ICS Device" and it worked for me

For me Wireless Tether does not work too. I have installed a Sense 4 Rom on my device.
I have tried several settings but it never worked for me.
So i have downloaded Barnacle Wifi Tether APP from PlayStore. And voila it works for me on a Sense 4 rom.
In settings you need to check " Skip wpa_supplicant " an then it works. The only thing is, you can only set WPE key encryption.
Try it and give feedback....:good:

Strangely, Skype eliminates this issue entirely, but I can't Skype someone every time I want to do some gaming.

Tried Barnicle Wifi as well and am able to get a connection to my iPad - it gives it an IP address but cannot get out to any websites.
With the Wifi Tether only the Upload numbers are changing, the download part is stuck at 0.0.
Any thoughts?
Running MeanROM ICS v2.6 and Wifi Tether v 3.1 Beta 14
Note: I can enable Routing Fix but I do not see the option for MMS Clamp?
All your help is appreciated!

Using the Speed Test app on my iPad I am getting the following speeds (4G):
2.02 Mbps - D/L
1.37 Mbps - U/L
Is this normal? Anyone getting quicker speeds?
This is fine but seems a bit throttled for me.. I used to get speeds (in the same area on 4G) with my old Evo 4G at around 10-15 Mbps D/L!
Hey guys, I have searched and tried alot of apps and setting to get wifi tethering with my phone. I am rooted, VIPERDNA ROM, S-OFF, and all the apps i use either crash or they try to use the stock tethering which states i need to buy the service plan.
Anyone have anything they use to wifi tether with their DNA? I would really like to do this but I am not going to pay that extra $ for it.
Thanks
P.S. Got a friend to come from his ThunderBolt to the DNA- He loves it!
I use WiFi tether version 3.2-beta2 ***BETA*** with device profile set to Generic ICS/JB (wlan0) & Setup Method to Netd-Ndc (master). Works flawlessy. DNA is stock rom, s-off, rooted. Also enable routing fix. I believe it's the same one in the Play Store. It has the yellow wifi logo (not the green one.)
*EDIT*
With that set-up, I can get other Android phones to run on it.
*EDIT #2*
Not sure when it was updated but now I use version 3.3-beta2-06102013 ***Synergized*** Settings are as follows:
Device-Profile: Generic ICS/JB (wlan0)
Setup-Method: Netd-Ndc (master)
Send Ntd Max Client Cmd: unchecked
Enable WiFi-Encryption: yes
Mac Address Spoof: unchecked
Don't disable Bluetooth: checked
WiFi-driver reload: unchecked
WiFi-driver reload 2:checked
Enable Access-Control: checked
LAN Section
MSS clamping: checked
Routing fix: checked
Miscellaneous Section
Enabled Update-Check
Disabled Wake-Lock
My DNA is completely stock, no custom ROM, no custom kernel, nothing. It is fully S-OFF & rooted. While these particular settings work for me, others (phones, roms, etc...) may need to play around with the settings to find the perfect fit. Best of luck to all.
Thanks alot! Ive used that app before but couldnt get it to work. With your settings i can!

So I did all this and it says the tethering is working but I'm not seeing my Wifi connection on my laptop? Any suggestions?
Wireless Tether on CM10.1 4.3.3 Razr XT912?
* This is REALLY REALLY IMPORTANT for me. My Samsunng Galaxy Tab 1 10.2 has a nice big screen for watching HD shows and movies, great for maps and navigation, and fun for games. Not to mention video chats and other things where I need a much bigger screen. I have unlimited data so watching HD Movies all day would not cost a cent, whether it is on the phone or granted access by the Wireless Tether for rooted phones. Verizon charges $20/Mo for that "service" whether you use it or not. I used to subscribe to the service until i got hurt and had to take disabliity. Now I still need it but no way have the money to pay for it. Stock Verizon Blur ROM Android 4.1.2, WiFi tether version 3.2-beta2, worked "right out of the box" Woo Hoo! Somebody answer please, tell me where to ask this question, ask someone else, or anything. It sure is lonely way down in here. Like having a naked swim party at your own mansion, plenty of hot women, live music, drinks, anything you want or need, just ask. And nobody shows up!
I use WiFi tether version 3.2-beta2 ***BETA*** flawlessly with all settings on auto with my Motorola Droid Razr Maxx XT012 when I run the stock, rooted ROM. Android 4.1.2. Now I want to get off stock and use a Cyanogen ROM. I cannot use 10.2 because Data is not supported for this phone in that ROM. But CM10.1 works fine, I get data (4G) and of course my phone works. But I have yet to get wireless tether to work at all on this ROM. I tried the settings that were suggested, it shows up as running, but I use a tablet with WiFi Manager on it. It has an auto-updating radar screen on it. When I turn on tether, it shows up right away, on the correct channel, with the correct SSID (Network Name). But in this CM 10.1 ROM, it does not work at all. All wifi tethers I have tried so far do not work on this ROM. Check screenshots for ROM info.
Man I got to go to bed, just fell asleep at the keyboard for a few seconds and found I had typed in 736 w characters. Time for bed, 'night y'all!
Anybody get Wireless Tether for rooted phones to work on this ROM?

I have a rooted coolpad, on the stock rom, using metro. I am using this app and used the settings that you said. I checked the log because it started with errors, When enabling the routing fix it said failed and also failed on enabling the MSS clamping

As for coolpad's, I have no experience with those. I only have HTC's: Droid Incredible & Droid DNA. Try changing the rom settings within tether.

As stated above, try changing the rom settings within the tether app.

Get the new updated version & use the settings in my recently edited post. If that doesn't work, change the Device Profile &/or Setup Method settings. Best of luck.
I used to use the Google code wifi tether, but the settings are a pain in the ass. I just bought FoxFi and have no problems at all now. It has worked flawlessly on several devices now.
Does anyone have a working wifi tether for 4.4.2?

Native WiFi Tether app is modded and working on ViperDNA 3.1.0 and most, if not all, other 4.4.2 ROMs.

Where/how are you seeing the MSS Clamping?! I think that's all I need to get this going again but it isn't showing up in my app frustrating the Hell out if me!

So even though I'm notified to activate the service through Verizon in the Native WiFi Tether app, I can still use it without being charged for it?

I tried & tried as well, looking up apps, going to app store, if they worked then Sprint would have already had app store tell my my phone it was not compatible. Plus the large amount of just BOGUS apps on playstore.
This hotspot on my phone, the one the laptop is hooked to right now is as fast or faster than my router on home network! You have to choose either HOME or WORK before windows 7 will map it out. Saw no internet connectivity past my named hotspot but after restarting the access to hotspot (& hotspot) a couple times it popped up on phone, red windows shield icon with x and had to okay it in the dropdown before it hooked up and worked.
Thanks for this!!!
