[Q] Cannot tether after ICS - Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello guys.
I've updated my P7500 to ICS and found out that I cannot tether via bluetooth to my SIII.
It was working fine on Honeycomb. I can see the phone but when I check on the internet access option it does nothing.
Have you experienced this?

Mines works good with my galaxy note.. I can tether via bluetooth from the gtab

No problems here to a Galaxy Nexus

Glad it's working for you. Maybe I'll flash again!

Look under Development for PROCEDURE..
If your running Overcomes Rom on GT10.1 there is a certain procedure in setting it up..I have mine running off a wireless tether app on my New Galaxy S 2(Epic Touch)..Your phone needs to be rooted to run wireless tether app..I believe its version 3.1 beta6..Let me know how you do..I can post the thread in "How to" set up your SGT 10.1 on a wireless tether...

Any tethering apps?

I know there isn't wireless tether yet as there is no permanent root, but do any apps on the market work as wired tether?

I just used EasyTether lite, worked real well.
+1, I used EasyTether last night to see if it would work, and sure enough it did. Speed tests were only getting like 5MB down, but maybe that's due to limitations with USB? Either way, it worked!
I have used Open Garden WiFi Tether from the the market and it worked great for me.

Tether your Touchpad

OK... After sacrificing my ability to tether by moving from CM7 xronified to ICS, I have tried all kinds of combinations to tether my Epic 4G Touch to my TP on ICS (currently running CM9 alpha 2).
I came across the app foxfi in the market and it WORKS. I am still on cloud 9 at the moment, but has anyone heard anything bad about this app? It doesn't behave like open garden or wifi tether, but its freaking working. I am posting from the tethered connection right now.

I tether my HTC TBolt constantly, that's why having a tablet is so fun.

What tethering app are you using?
I must be missing something, how is it possible that what version of Android your TouchPad is running effects your phones ability to be a wifi hotspot?
I have never had an issue with using the built in wifi portable hotspot in Android to tether my TouchPad. If you enabled that on your phone when you were running CM7 on your TP, how would ICS affect that.

Touchpad doesn't play so nicely with all tethers. Consider yourself lucky. Alot of people dumped their TPs because they couldn't get tethering to work. It is very buggy. All 3 of my TPs don't tether at will. In the past, there have been different protocols to get each to work. My hotspot could be seen by every other device I own, but my TPs couldn't see it. There are tons of bug threads relating to wifi, but nothing really talking about tethering. I saw a few other threads in forums for phones addressing touch pad, but why not have a place in the touch pad forum to bring it all to one spot?
Now Foxfi works with all three TPs and no ceremonial switches and reboots are required to get it to go.
Mine tethers from my Atrix perfectly with the built in setting. didn't know people were dumping their tp cuz of tether.

Dumb ?
Read what was here, but question:
Do I need to root my phone? I have the HTC Incredible 2, and am not trying to root that and just trying to connect my Touchpad (wifi-only) to my phone and be able to use internet, market, etc.
What apps and instructions would I need?
I thinking only people on Sprint (or Verizon?) have that issue....I tether my tp with my Samsung captivate on ATT all the time...so does my Sister from HTC sensation on Tmobile....
@Salvation27/: u csn try this app Clockworkmode tether

As far as I know, without rooting, you will have to pay for the hotspot service by your provider in order to tether. I would say try PDAnet, but I haven't heard of anyone successfully tethering via BT.

That could be the issue too. I will test it with some of my friends phones and report back (might be a day or two). I didn't think about a possible conflict with carrier specific phones.

According to the info on the Market, Foxfi does not require rooting. But you will need to check to see if it is compatible with your phone.
I have a rooted Bionic, works really sweet with it.

I moved to ICS on my E4GT last night and I had to change to Wifi tether , but set my profile to galaxy nexus CDMA for it to work. Its so hit or miss.

I use freetether on my pre2 to tether-via-wifi with my touchpad, works great.
You're right about the bluetooth. The option is there, and I can get everything to link up, but it still doesn't seem to be actually sharing the internet connection. I thought it'd be brilliant to get bluetooth tethering going (it should use a bit less energy to tether, giving me better battery life), but it doesn't seem to work in all the testing and fiddling I've done...

Using hotspot with PS3

I have a T-Mobile Galaxy S III running the latest CM10 nightlies. I'd like to use the hotspot to tether to my PS3 WITHOUT having to run it through a computer first. As some of you may know, this hasn't worked so well in the past. Has anybody found a way to make it work, just between the phone and the PS3?
