So I called parrot to find out about the Dun feature where you can connect to the internet via bluetooth. They told me that it will not work with my Samsung and will only work with Motorola. I have tried several times with my Galaxy s2 and had no luck. He also told me that I can use USB tethering to make it work, but the carrier will charge about $25 a month. Tmobile charges about 15 a month, but of course, i dont want to pay that! I am rooted. I am wondering how I can USB tether without having to pay for it? I know there are apps like pdanet and usb tether lite but the problem that I am facing is that it requires me to install the software on to my computer to use. Since it is not a computer that I am trying to connect it to, but a car stereo, I am having an issue. I thought, hey maybe I can search for an app that doesnt require me having to download any software, but thats not looking so good. So here is my question. WHAT DO I DO? does anyone know of any tethering apps that will work for me? thanks in advance for your help.

Use wifi hotshot & usb tether from developer 'erda team.' It's in the Play Store, it's free and just works. I use in on my vzw Galaxy S3. I tether my laptop to my S3 to take advantage of 4G speed.
I also used it to link my unlocked Galaxy y to my locked S3 when I was traveling. This allowed me to buy cheap foreign sim cards, plug them into the (cheap) young then access the Internet from my S3. More help if you need it.

Should work. Once you install it turn it on. It will give you a pin for you to enter into your ps3 to pair the devices.
Then from your ps3 do a wifi search to find your phone (you can also rename your phone to make it easier to locate, ie I use 'Johnnys S3.' Once found, enter the pin you were given. Now you are paired. You also have to authorize the ps3 from your phone. Set your phone as the default wifi on your ps3 so that you don't have to enter a pin each time. In the future, you will only need to turn on the phone app to pair the devices.

Hi clever android folks
needing some help..
I buy a year ago from dx.com a tablet called Vido mini 3G,,, its been really good tablet once I got it rooted and
xposed added etc
but this week I decide to try its hotspot feature since our home wan went down and had to switch to 3g and
wanted to share same SIM card data package with other devices like win8 and other androids
the hotspot aka wifi tethering just fails. it connects but stuck on obtaining ip and if manually give a ip it says connects
but no throughput happens.
has anyone got one of these tablets with JB 4.2.2 image from 20131119
and had same problem and found a solution
i suspect kernel or firmware issue.. like bad wlan driver??
the USB tethering works fine though
or better still is there a custom rom for this model I see a few for kitkat for vido N70 but I dont think its
the same hardware.
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
firstly hi im new
I have an s7 edge and the wifi network at work is too far from my office... can i connect my phone to the wireless hotspot then if i get another s7 or s6, connect that to previous phones hotspot and then finally my laptop to the last phone??
cheers to anyone that can help
anyone?
