I've installed the latest Verizon DCD ROM but the only thin missing is the phone's software for "Broadband Access" (ie: use the phone as a modem). Do I need to install this on the phone to use my phone as a modem ( the software CD says I do ). It doesn't have the phone software on the CD as it assumes it's already on the phone. Anyone know where I can get this app? Or a work-around for it?
No not at all... For USB connection Follow these steps.
1. Connect USB cable
2. Open your comm manager on your phone and select Internet sharing.
3. Click connect.
You should be connected now. You can also do it via bluetooth, but I have not tried as I like the idea that my phone gets a little trickle charge from the USB cable.
from what i understand you have to pay the for the unlimited data plan nd also pay an additional 15 dollars to be able to use your phone as a braodband modem
I have the unlimited data plan, but I do not have to pay and additional $15 to use my phone as a modem. I would need to pay the extra $15 if I was using the stock rom and VZW connect software.

mine doesnt do that, it starts to connect, and then diconnects and says cannot connect, the remote party has ended this connection.
Although it tends to eat the battery, I use tend to use WMWiFiRouter. This works well for me, as I usually like to be as cord free as possible. However, with any semi-recent dcd rom, you should be able to go to Programs>Internet Sharing and then, with your USB cord plugged in, hit connect. That should be all you need. Also, if that works, make sure to call VzW and have them take that off your account. Also, don't tell them the real reason, just say you don't really use it.

when u first plug ur phone in, let it sync b4 u try 2 connect w/ internet sharing.
Quick question: do i need to do a registry hack in order to hide from the carrier that I'm using PAM?
Hello
I just got an Atrix today on ATT. Before I bought it, I checked online to make sure that it supports the PAN profile - which it said it did.
The reason that I want this is so I can tether my IPad (non-jailbreak) to my Atrix using bluetooth.
I know that wireless exists, but I want something that will be easy on the batteries for my phone.
I have tried the older version of "Wireless Tether" but that keeps saying that my phone is in an unknown state when I try to turn on bluetooth tether.
I did root my phone - but nothing else. Can someone please help me get bluetooth PAN working on my phone so I can tether my ipad to it?
Thanks in advance

Bummer, same problem here. I'm attempting to connect to a "imwatch" and not finding a solution to turn on Bluetooth pan. It looks like everyone has moved on to newer devices. :crying:

I think you need something called reverse tether. I seem to recall seeing an app in playstore that does that, but I'm unsure if its free.
You may or may not need KIES installed - just be careful if you're using ODIN. The two don't get on.
Hi All,
I am looking to convert my unlimited data (Samsung Galaxy S3) to a wifi signal but have some hurdles... 1) No hotspot feature included on cell, 2) Hotspot apps trigger an "additional fee" message from carrier and 3) don't want to brick cell by trying to root. We are currently using Easytether which is working great but are limited by the USB cable.
Is it possible to connect a cell directly to a wireless router (via USB cable) or through a desktop? Could a dongle or external adapter help us? Could we somehow adjust the built-in wireless card to connect to the Easytether adapter in the Network Center?
I realize this is probably apples to oranges but am hoping someone has a work around. I have done my homework as a noob but my head is pounding with this one. Thank you everyone in advance. ps...I do have someone who can follow your instructions
Desktop/Win 7 Home,
Old EeePc netbook/Win XP
RCA Viking Pro Android 5 Lollipop
So My old galaxy S4 with cyanogenmod which tethered unlimited without a problem broke last week when I tried to replace the screen and destroyed the digitizer.
I bought this J327p and now my primary source of internet is gone with the tethering limitations.
If I can't get this to work I am returning it tonight.
I rooted the phone and I tried the easily searchable suggestions people have to get this working.
One guy suggested an app called Wifi Tether Router but you have to pay for it and I don't want to do that if it's not guaranteed to work.
I edited the boot.prop file but that also didn't work.
Does anyone know anything I can do to get tethering to work, if not what phone do you suggest I buy at a maximum $250. I really don't need much from my phone except good reception for internet.
I downloaded this: https://forum.xda-developers.com/general/general/rom-pl1-samsung-galaxy-j3-emerge-sm-t3580396
But I'm not sure what that is or if I should try it.
any useful suggestions really appreciated.
Also this is a bit over my head so please use full explanations and definitions of terms.
use easytether pro it usrs yr adb to create a parallel data sourced internet, juts plug it in usb and download the modem /drivr of mobilesrteam.com
