Hey guys, I was have been trying to figure out how to tether my internet via WiFi hotspot on my phone. When I was running the official ICS from Samsung I used foxfi and it worked with no problems. Well now I'm running the Super Nexus ROM and foxfi won't work. Any solutions / alternatives?
Thanks, Dev

you should be able to turn it on. in phone settings in wireless and network select others then select portable wifi hotspot. it is there you have to find it.
I see what you're talking about. Will that go against my ATT contract?

Yes and no. Some people have had success tethering without ATT finding out and charging extra for tethering.
So far I've been ok.. on both iphone and android so I was just making sure doing it this way won't raise a red flag.

It will count against your data plan if you are tethering and using your mobile data.
Yes it will unless of corse you conect to wi-fi. (Thank you Captian Obvious!)
Why would someone tether if he had wifi available?

No, but it can work over USB. This actually came as a surprise to me to find that Android was able to share the WiFi over USB and I'm almost positive that Windows Mobile 6 could not.

Anyone know a tethering app that works on the tmobile gs3. I I've tried foxfi and wifi tether (root). And I can't use the original one that came with the phone because they want me to use the tmobile hot spot and I do not want to get rid of my data plan.

1. Please put [Tmobile] in your title, so us AT&T, Sprint, US Cellular, & Verizon users don't waste our time in here and so that you don't get misleading responses.
2. I found a solution for my AT&T device by downloading FoxFi.

I have pre-rooted and deodexed rom found here (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1935570) installed on my UK (bought from t-mobile) S3 LTE and tethering works a treat.
Ive got quite abit of different mods on mine practically like a new rom and tether also works great obviosly if we have that option then it should work and if it doesnt its either a software bug , network, or faulty phon. Or even the other device thats connecting to it.

Contact your service provider | by calling 150, and perhaps option 4 for technical support, as EE may have this option disabled for you by default, I have yet to check if mine works because i just ordered this as an upgrade (Everythings Unlimited!) for only £41 a month LOL
i am tethering right now and i am shocked as it is very fast even tho i am near the ocean and bushland./Lake but i am on 3G , as there is no 4g coverage out here yet. You would spin out if you knew where i was . Its 12am I am in front of a MASSIVE lake in a tent near the bush and just to see if i could, i hooked up my mini netbook up to my i9305 and all i can say is AWESOME i have now been on a stable connection for 1 hr. who needs a hardwire connection when you have a S3
Hehe i better get off now and get back to the nature haha. cya

There is a way around it i saw in i9300 a dev made a work around. I just cant remeber what thread it was inn or wat dev it was.i think it was his own work around he didnt advertise it because it was an offtopic thread was about something else and it lead into tethering . Do a search if ios has something we must aswel lol

Galaxy S2 has it`s own Hotspot.Go to Setting->Under Wireless & Networks go to More..->Tethering & Portable Hotspot.You just have to enable it,and set it up.You can even give a password for it.

The last time I had to buy a tethered wife was 1831... the price was fair, but the market has been drying up lately:

Have you considered a mail-order wife and then tethering her after you've acquired her?

Otherwise I think you will be limited to specialty shops in the major cities:
