For some reason, every time I click on
Wireless & Networks / More / Portable hotspot & tethering, I get a force close.
Because of that I am not able to set my phone up for 3g tethering. Any suggestions/advice please?
Many thanks

I was wondering whether setting my optimus one as a wireless hotspot would use my data allowance?
cheers
Yes. (10 characters)
Yes it will. Setting ur phone as a hotspot effectively allows other users to use ur 3G data connection via wi-fi.

The 2.3.3 update provides the following that are fully functional:
USB Tethering - allows you to attach a single device via USB to allow it to access the Internet through your X10's WiFi or 3G data connection
Portable WiFi Hotspot - allows other WiFi-enabled devices to attach to your X10 via WiFi to allow them to access the Internet through your X10's 3G data connection
Go to Settings > Wireless & Networks > Tethering & Portable Hotspot to get to and set up those features.
For USB tethering, you'll need either a WiFi or 3G data connection available. For the portable WiFi hotspot, you need a 3G data connection available and the WiFi hardware must be on as well (since your X10 will become a WiFi router).
They work quite well, and they easily replace what we used to need 3rd-party apps for in the past.

Configure it first, set your password or change to open.

Need to share my 3g bandwidth from my samsung tab 10.1 , I found no inbuilt options (or did I miss something, pls say I did) .. Tried wireless tether, runs and shows as Ad Hoc hotspot, but no device can connect to it.
And Oh I'm rooted
You don't have a built in mobile hotspot app?
under wireless settings, there should be an option that says tethering and wireless hotspot.
Wireless tethering quick settings tile:
Primary: on/off
Secondary: WiFi/Bluetooth
Secondary long press: Tethering & portable hotspot settings
We already have WiFi tethering available on a tile.

I know, but I tether to my N7 WiFi via Bluetooth. It's less power hungry and a WiFi hotspot is easier to discover and a lot of people tried to hack it. (I used wpa2 but the continuous connection request slowed my connection)
I know it seems pointless, but there is a reason for this... Is it possible to share my 4G/LTE internet with a router so that other devices can connect to the internet through my phone while my phone still possess the ability to use the internet?
Most would recommend setting up the hotspot, but the apps that I am trying to use are checking to see if the device is connected to a network and hotspot "disables" wifi so it looks like my phone isn't actually on a network.
What I would like is for the phone to connect to a router and share it's internet while it retains internet access.
Nexus 5 [INTERNET from 4G/LTE] ---> Nano USB Router [HooToo Tripmate Router] ---> Nexus 7 [As car stereo head unit]
Thanks and any help is greatly appreciated.
