Wifi Tethering doesn't work - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I am currently using AOKP based Tsunami ROM 1.0. I installed it exactly as per instructions i.e. first went back to an ICS based ROM and then installed Tsunami. Inspite of this my wifi tethering doesnt work. USB and bluetooth tethering works perfectly. I even tried third party apps like Open garden wifi tethering to no avail.
A little help would be appreciated.
Thanks.

No1 faced this problem with an AOKP ROM?

This seems to be a problem with the both CM7 and MIUI at the moment. Barnacle works, but only provides ad hoc networking. That's fine if you want to tether a PC or laptop, but won't work for tethering an android tablet. At the moment, there is no off the shelf solution for tether tablets, though there is a method that involves rooting and altering the tablet so that it can work on ad hoc networks.
I've been able to tether using 3rd party wireless tether on both miui and cm7 with no problems
Im on latest MIUI and im using wireless tether 2.0.5-pre13 and it works flawlessly for me.
hi
haven't used the teather but does anyone know if the hotspot charges you or is it "free"
Same problem on Motorola Defy - MIUI
I have the same problem on Moto Defy with MIUI.
The "Wireless Tether for Root Users" was perfectly able to tether in infrastucture mode on Moto Defy with Eclair and Froyo.
In MIUI the same software id doesn't! It's just able to tether in ad-hoc mode.
Quite a big limitation.
Is there a solution to the AP tethering issue with MIUI. Did anyone get it to work?

Do any of the roms based on the newest leak allow tethering using Wireless Tether?

I am on Cl3anTh3ory and for the life of me I can't get it to work.
I have 3.0 Wifi Tether cooked in. It works, green Wifi icon on the app drawer. What is the problem you're having?

I see the yellow icon and as soon as someone is connected it seems like the connection disappears
If your rom doesnt have wifi tether, barnicle works great to.

It does but the connection drops out for some reason.
Im running the newest gb stock leak & rooted. All works fine...
I myself was on CM7, and am Installing Liquid Gingersense 1.6 to see if it works. If not I'll do like JRocker and go with the leaked one from HTC. I use and pay for this feature for unlimited. Not having it work is killing me. It worked fine on a prior version of CM7, but then the same day VZW announced they would start stonewalling users who were rooted tether's without the plan, I signed up for the plan and it still didn't help.
works on ginger theory
Liquid Gingersense worked great. Downloaded several GB's today. No data problems like CM7 which would require reboots.

I'm using liquid gingersense too, but everytime I try to turn on the wifi hotspot, I get a force close, other apps don't work either, tried the Barnacle, and it gave errors when I tried to enable. It's like the hotspot just isn't there, even though there are menue options for it...

[Q] Playbook

Does anyone know how to get the x10 WiFi or Bluetooth connection working on a playbook? I am currently on CM7 rom.
Please help
What do you mean? Tethering to it and pairing? Should work just fine. I dont have any problems. Not running CM 7 at the moment but if your wifi and bluetooth work then should be good.
I tried BT tether as well as WiFi tether and they don't work. On CM7 roms the WiFi tether only works in ad-hoc mode which the playbook does not support. maybe i will try a different rom.
pairing works but not tethering
Rom's based on stock seem to work, I can tether my data connection to the playbook. As for the bluetooth, it pairs but I am unable to actually send any files back and forth (not sure if this option is actually available to non-bridged devices), it runs as a audio/video remote, currently using OS2 Beta, so maybe thats an issue, not sure, didn't check on OS 1.08
Wifi tethering working Blackberry Playbook
Hi,
i´ve had the same issues, beeing not able to wifi tether, with my playbook and Samsung Galaxy S2. Wifi tethering worked with every other device but not with my playbook.
Bluetooth tethering seems to be working with every BB and only some other devices.
So the problem must be in the wifi from bbpb.
Since yesterday there is 2.0.0.7111 beta for Playbook.
I installed the beta and now wifi tether works. I don`t get disconnected anymore.
hope that will work 4 you too.
Register here to be able to get 2.0.0.7111
Sorry, i`m not able to post Links =( ... just google 2.0.0.7111

[Q] CM10 : Tethering not working

Hello,
I have a SG3 (i9300) and I have an issue with CM10 (and 10.1) :
Bluetooth Tethering and USB tethering doesn't work (wifi tethering not tested yet).
If I test with Omega or Stock Samsung Rom : no problem, 100% working.
I've test with CM 10 noobproof edition (flashable with "Odin cm-10-20120920-ODIN-i9300.tar") : tethering work but the wifi does not work anymore... :silly:
(This is the only CM10 rom I tested for which Tethering works)
I also tested with Paranoid, temasek's UNOFFICIAL CM10.1 BUILD (and 10), official (nightly) build, ...
I tested by putting back the phone "stock", unrooted before flash CM10 : no way...
I can connect my computer to my i9300 : ping OK, but no internet connexion.
Help ?
Sorry about my English, I'm French
Hmm, no replies yet. We can't be the only 2 people who are having issues with tethering on cm10.
For me I could not tether on my Nexus S 4G stock, stock but rooted, nor on 2 different night lies. Stock, I downloaded an app, it broadcasted the ssid and I connected to it, but no routing.
On cm10 the tether app wouldn't broadcast the said, and there were errors every time it tried to run.
Now I installed WiFi Tether - TrevE Mod. Nothing really works, but if I launch with Fallback Tether Mode I see that as the said. However, it is short lived because I think part of it crashes and the ssid disappears. I did connect to it once, bit no routing again.
Seems the best I can do is connect with no routing, and I'm beginning to wonder if Sprint found a way to block this function if we haven't paid for it. I couldn't get it to work on my photon 4g either.
Is anybody able to tether for free on Sprint? I used to do it on my Evo 4g all the time. Wish I had one to test with.

[Q] HTC Evo V WiFi Hotspot No Internet Access

Hello
I recently flashed this ROM onto my HTC Evo V:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2098121
It's been amazing so far, much better than the stock sense ROM. The only problem I am facing is that I am unable to get the wireless hotspot to work correctly. I previously had Harmonia ROM installed and the WiFi tether app that came with it worked just fine. Now on the CyanogenMod ROM I am using the built in hotspot without much luck. All client devices I have tried have been able to connect to the hotspot but are unable to receive any Internet access. My Windows PCs mark the connection as having 'limited access'. I have tested the hotspot with both the 3G and 4G on my phone without any luck.
I'm not sure what to try next, I would really like to have the wireless hotspot working again. Does anyone have any ideas that I could try? Thanks!
Wifi Tether only works on Sense 3.6 Roms.
AOSP and Sense 4/4+ Roms do NOT support WiFi tether.
Eventually the issue will be solved.

Thanks for the reply! I look forward to when I can use the built in tether but until then I actually got it to work using the PdaNet+ app from the market!
