hello I'm new to all the rooting and installing custom roms I am about to buy an htc rezound but was wondering if the roms that are posted on the rezound Android Development page already come with the wifi hack or will I have to do something else to get the free wifi tether THANKS FOR ALL YOUR HELP
Most come with a wifi tether app, ones i know of are Nils Business Sense and Rezrom( I think Scott's Cleanrom also). It takes a couple extra steps to get working-
Change device profile to Galaxy Nexus LTE & checkmark routing fix. Enable & disable, allowing root both times.
EDIT:
Oh btw, we just got s-off, you're joining up just at the right time.
If the rom don't have the wifi app you can always get the apk file off the internet and install it that way

Verizon Rezound Issues
So have there been any issues with the wifi tethering on the Rezound with Verizon?
Issues such as redirects or threats of charges...
Thanks,

No. The wifi Tether app allows the User to bypass verizons tether charge. but if you are on a capped plan, it will still use your Data.

I've ran into an issue with it. I am on Rezrom Ex 3.4 ICS.
My issue is: With galaxy nexus LTE selected, wifi tether starts without errors, however my wifi interface starts to have issues. I installed the latest version of wifi tether, 3.1 beta 14 and using the generic ICS device profile it seems like it is going to work, however then it gives the message "Device has taken back control of wifi interface" or something to that effect. If anyone knows a fix for this I'd really like to know what to do. Dont really want to have to load a new rom just to get this working so I can tether my new nexus 7.
Anyway it seems there aren't many people having this problem (that i have found anyway) if I find a solution ill post with info.
Found thread with fixes. If your having this issue or any others try the steps here. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1540707
I just wonder why the "mobile hotspot" application is included in ROMs still. Guess its just a reminder of what your gettting for free with the wifi tehter.

It usually isn't an apk that can be taken out. It's buried deep in the framework.

Been searching for it for a while and found many that where working but none that worked for more than 15 seconds then crashed, got this one now, and it works great. Been testing it for the last hour, and even using right now as i type this. It is attached to the attachment, download and install the APK. Enjoy guys
NO CREDIT GOES TO ME, IT ALL GOES TO THE CREATOR OF wifitether*pre3.apk

No link displayed (for me), and this was discovered a couple days ago with the wifitether*pre3.apk (would give credit to who discovered it, but on my phone, too lazy to search back, and retype this)

added to the root thread post, thanks for the info bro.
This has worked consistently for me since install.
It also seems to not need any sort of special install procedure, you can just drop the apk and install from astro or whatever file manager you use.
works perfectly posting this reply using the connection dowload 1.76mb/s upload 1.23mb/s
Wifi tether
You actually don't need a file manager to install just download it from your slide and it will ask if you want to install after it is done loading to your memory card.(Of course you need ROOT and su permission) Thanks!

Huh? The wifi tether app creates an access point that any wifi-capable device can connect to. And as [most, if not all] Android handsets have wifi capabilities they should be able to join that access point to snag the wireless connection.

I thought so too until I tried it with my G1.. something about adhoc modem won't allow android to android connection. I'm so jealous I wish I had an evo now.

Yeah I've tried tethering on my own MT3GS and connecting to it via my sister's MT3GS and the network doesn't show up.
thanks for checking. I hope they find away to do it on ours soon.
Ok, when I try to install while on my phone it says there is a problem parsing the package... ?
NM, it was the wrong APK that had the same name, just ._ at the beginning that I was trying.
By the way, thanks for the app (OP and peeps who made it).
On my MT3GS it is working great! Also running the Teamslide Nonsense ROM, just put the apk on the sdcard and installed.
I'm on OSX and it doesn't actually show up as a network, it shows up as a p2p connection. Not sure if that would make a difference for people that might be having trouble, but basically if you get the app installed and the tether started, it might just be computer settings.
Causes reboot on my Slide running CM Nightlies... (8/12/2010) Tried uninstalling and reinstalling. Need to check the log but it is consistent, does the same thing with AdFree.

You can always find the most recent version of Android Wifi Tether at: http://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether. The most current version is 2.0.5-pre8 as of this post. Use that, not the one in this thread's original post!

Not sure if its compatibility with Froyo since (technically speaking) Froyo is suppose to have built-in Hotspot support.

Has anyone else noticed the wifi tether breaking on eugenes rc6 and teamslide1.71 after flashing the dopio kernel? Cyanogen rc1 seems to reboot on all. It seems like all ROMs that have modified kernel's have caused wifi tether to not work. I am running CR's Full OTA with wifi tether working. After flashing any dopio kernel the thether no longer works (I have tried 2_0_5 pre3, 7 and 8).
I just updated my girlfriend's 3G Slide to the latest CM build (6.0.0) and Wifi Tether is causing reboots for her as well. My Google-fu is wearing thin.
I tried the built in USB tethering as well and regardless of the driver I use once USB tethering is turned on it can't find the driver.
Not sure if it's connected.
Same driver issue is happening with PDANet, on 2 laptops. One running Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit, the other running Vista Home Premium 32 bit.
This big issue is with WifiTether rebooting the phone. Hopefully someone can come up with a fix for it.
(I've also tried every version of WifiTether as well, happens with each version no matter what.)
I see alot of people commenting that wifi tether doesn't work, or its incompatible with the stock kernel. Well I just wanted to post exactly how I got it to work.
How I got it running......
1. Get temp root by one of the methods in the forum. (I personally used Tilde88's method from the " yes another rootme thread in the dev section"
2. Download the wifi tether apk from the root/FAQ thread.
3. In the settings change profile to desire (cdma)
4. In settings apply check to box to fix HTC routing.
Wifi tether should restart and you should be in business. Thats all i did and I can stop and start it and the tether continues to connect to the internet. Hope this helps somebody.
EDIT. Thanks to quinxy....I forgot to mention the wifi tether will tell you that you don't have root, but proceed anyway when it ask's for superuser access. Not sure why it does that, but the app will work regardless.

ECELLENT... THIS is how i got my tethering to work also except i used a different root method..
i used the easy root script tp temp root, then just installed wireless tether pre14, works perfect for me.
Also got barnacle wifi to work after using the perma temp root. no special config needed. But will try wifi tether now since it had epa support.

google search is my friend, lol, first thing i did this morning to be exact .
You might want to update the first post to let people know that even if the WiFi Tether warns you on start that you're not root, and you know you are, it's ok, just proceed and start the tether. The SU app will then ask for super user permission. I spent 30 minutes trying to figure out why WiFi Tether didn't think I was root! I'd just bail out without trying to start tethering, since I thought it'd be pointless (since the app warning says it will!).

FYI - Barnacle Tethering app seems to have better speed for me.
I have noticed that ever since I rooted my Thunderbolt I cannot tether. All devices will connect to my phone(other phones, computers, xbox, etc) but they cannot open a web browser. It used to work on the hotspot ap that came with the phone. The only thing I can think of is that on the stock app, I could change the security to wpa/wpa2/wep. On this new app I cannot change, am I grasping at something that isnt there or is there something else that needs to be done?
help me pleas,e, my neighbors internet wont be there forever. , .
I've been rooted for some time and it may be coincidence but sense the last 4g outage last week my tethering has "limited access" wired or wireless. I'm using liquid 3.0.2 built in wired/wireless hotspot. wifi apps I've installed don't work either now??? Help

I noticed that the android wifi tether app states that it only works for 3G and 2G. I wonder if this is just a "canned" statement? Does anyone know, for sure, if it works for 4G tethering?
Yeah I did, neither the old or new one are getting more than limited access. Know idea what may have changed on the PC side? Nothing new or changed? Just the outrage on Verizons end last week. I'm baffled. I have tried a couple other Rome with the same results. Sucks pdanet is a third of the speed.
There's a bug with CM7 if your using it, I'm having the same problem. I have a none stock kernel with it but I can't using wifi-tether or the built in tether. Makes me want to switch to my sense ROM. :/

If you're running CM7 set your built in tethering to OPEN for security and run this version of wireless tether use the same name as the built in one and it'll work. I finally got it working a few minutes ago.

What version of wireless tether are you using? The fix I posted was for v2.0.7. I have never had any kicking getting the beta builds to work.

I just recently uploaded Gingeritus I was using son of a bliss didnt get the wifi tethering, liquid smooth rom, great battery life and no wifi, now gingeritus. May I ask what other rom you would suggest?
I personally had flawless wifi tethering with Infected Eternity with the wifi tether setup I posted. Have you tried the new radios?

I think I might have to try infected eternity, I have not yet tried that. To my knowledge I believed I have flashed the latest radio (MR4).
Infected Eternity Rom installed, going to test the tethering now.
When i select the hotspot tethering and try to enable it just unchecks itself, I am running the latest MR4 radio and build 248 of the infected eternity rom. Guess im just not suppose to have this feature at all Thanks for everyone that has helped its truly appreciated.
I had some issues with different ROMs as well well getting wifi tether to work, but here is what I have which currently works:
a. Thundershed 1.5
b. IMO Lean Kernel 6.1 for AOSP
c. Latest Radio from 2.11.605.19
d. wireless tether 2.0.7
- Be sure to check the Routing Fix in Settings
When I start up Wifi Tether it brings up "Tethering or hotspot Active" in the status bar from the built-in hotspot, but that doesn't seem to affect wifi tether.
Also, when I first set it up I started it, let it setup the binaries and get superuser permission, then I stopped it, let it do whatever, then started it again.
I can connect without issue now. I hope this helps in some way.
I just got my thunderbolt today so maybe tomorrow I can look into it more for anyone interested and come up with a fix maybe. I haven't had a chance to get root but ill have time tomorrow.

Thank you so much ! I look towards your support.
I'm on the newest sense rom from Captain Throwback but this has been happening to me since I was back on MeanBean. I can turn my Hotpot on and I get no errors and I can connect with my laptop, tablet, and desktop. On each of these devices, they connect just fine, but there is no Internet Connection. I have tried absolutely everything, Changing security settings, changing SSID, changing password, changing advanced settings, and trying the hacks below.
I've even tried the fix here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2509613&page=2
I've even tried removing and adding all the build prop edits from MeanBean
This used to work no problem and I cannot pinpoint when it stopped working. I'm guessing it has something to do in my MSID settings or something on the cellular level. I don't think it is a hardware issue because I got WifiTether for root users to work.
Please any help would be awesome. I've literally tried everything
Please don't recommend me to use WIFI Tether. I'm not a fan of that app and my stock app should be working.
There is an updated hack recently posted in my thread - did you try that?
And technically, unless you have a tethering plan, it shouldn't be working, so you may want to think about that statement a bit.

I understand all that but I figured it you didn't have it on your plan, the error 69 would come up when trying to start it. I thought when is was hacked, Sprint wouldn't be able to see how your data was being used. On second hand, I do use a great deal of data so maybe I was flagged. Yes I did try the latest hotspot hack but I will flash again.
Ya nothing happened when I flashed the hotspot hack. This is just so weird. Any other suggestions would be awesome. I think this all started when I flashed the 3.17 firmware. I almost want to try flashing it again but I will have to unlock my bootloader again.
Ok so I've been doing a lot of testing and I've figured something out. When I drop the Network Mode to CDMA only, the hotspot works just fine. Does anybody else have problems with the hotspot when you are in LTE/CDMA mode with the stock app? I remember this being a problem way way back but I thought it was fixed or at least the app would only use CDMA data.
Yes. I had this same issue. Iptables isn't playing nice. I recommend JB Wifi Tether, it's been working flawlessly.

Have you found anything around the web to fix this? I can't call into Sprint and complain obviously.
What does the JB Wifi Tether app do? It seems to replace some things within the IPtables. Is there some way to create a script to do this automatically on a reboot so i can delete the app? Can I delete jtether once a run it once?
I personally want to try this script.

I'll give it a shot and let you know.
This guy here also has something going. Basically I want to be able to select it from my quick setting and not have to open the app every time.

So JB Wifi Tether works great. Just kinda suck you have to open an app to get tethering working. Anybody know of any scripts for the iptables that work at bootup?
