I have noticed that ever since I rooted my Thunderbolt I cannot tether. All devices will connect to my phone(other phones, computers, xbox, etc) but they cannot open a web browser. It used to work on the hotspot ap that came with the phone. The only thing I can think of is that on the stock app, I could change the security to wpa/wpa2/wep. On this new app I cannot change, am I grasping at something that isnt there or is there something else that needs to be done?
help me pleas,e, my neighbors internet wont be there forever. , .
I've been rooted for some time and it may be coincidence but sense the last 4g outage last week my tethering has "limited access" wired or wireless. I'm using liquid 3.0.2 built in wired/wireless hotspot. wifi apps I've installed don't work either now??? Help
Go here http://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether/ and try the newest version thats available. Also in settings check the router fix option.
Also you can try open garden from the market..

Then it worked.
My neighbors now have one les person stealing their wifi. Thank you!

I'm on Liquid 3.2 and I've had the best luck recently with Open Garden (wireless tether app)
@ tatt: did you go to that link above and download the new app to your phone?
I never did this on the old Rom so it may be that.

I noticed that the android wifi tether app states that it only works for 3G and 2G. I wonder if this is just a "canned" statement? Does anyone know, for sure, if it works for 4G tethering?
Yeah I did, neither the old or new one are getting more than limited access. Know idea what may have changed on the PC side? Nothing new or changed? Just the outrage on Verizons end last week. I'm baffled. I have tried a couple other Rome with the same results. Sucks pdanet is a third of the speed.
There's a bug with CM7 if your using it, I'm having the same problem. I have a none stock kernel with it but I can't using wifi-tether or the built in tether. Makes me want to switch to my sense ROM. :/

It works for 4g, I use it all the time. Im running stock rooted sense
If you're running CM7 set your built in tethering to OPEN for security and run this version of wireless tether use the same name as the built in one and it'll work. I finally got it working a few minutes ago.
Thanks will give it a try when I get home.

Thank you.
It works on my 4g, I tested it with a speed test website and was getting 5mbs.
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA App
I dont know what I did but my hotspot can only hit .25 mbps now according to speedtest.net
I then watched the speed on the hotspot and it shows the same
Its been like this for a week now, does any one know the settings layout on the hotspot? Are theer any that could affect this?
I have rebooted my phone, switched airplane on and off. I then tested the speed on my phone and it is getting 4g, so the problem is with the hotspot.

You rock JRocker23! Always helpful - a Thx is in order. Of course the Market QR code returns "No Results Found"
Try changing the type of connection to Infastructure or Ad-Hoc. I don't remember which one it was, but one of these fixed a very similar issue for me.

Works for me. Occasionally turns itself off when I try to turn it on, but a quick reboot fixes that.

Same for me. Not sure why it turns itself off as there's no rhyme or reason to it but like you said, a reboot always fixes it.
Wifi yes, USB and Bluetooth no.
well i wonder why my usb tethering or wifi hotspot wont work
Well, since the JB update (Which I wish I never did) I can't connect to my University's network. From what I have seen, this seems to be a problem with numerous phones running 4.1.1.
The network requires PEAP w/ MSCHAPV2.
This is simply not a problem I can continue to deal with. My phone absolutely HAS to have Wifi at the Uni since I roam in the buildings sometime, and I don't want to wipe my phone before I know if the problem is resolved.
So what are my options? Can anyone confirm that the stock ROM will work with the above network after a wipe? If not, how can I downgrade to ICS where the phone worked great? Or, if that isn't possible, can anyone confirm any ROMs working with the previously mentioned network configuration?
and rant:
This phone was absolutely amazing with ICS, and performed better than my friend's GS3's. Now I'm beginning to hate it like my original Galaxy :crying:
Are you rooted ? Are you s-off? Also there's a few methods you can try that worked on older android builds I can post the links if you like. However what methods have you already tried?

Completely stock, no root. What methods are you talking about? Methods to get the Wi-fi to connect? I haven't found anything concrete on how to fix the problem, and the bug reports on Google never seemed to have any fixes.

so the uni network is the only one that you cant connect to? home network works fine?
Change frequency settings from auto to 2.4 Ghz
I had the same problem with my One X+ when trying to connect to my work PEAP network. Apparently it's a bug in Android 4.1.
I found the fix here: http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=34212#c10
Flash the zip using recovery fixed my connection problems. Hope it helps!

I had it installed prior to the update, and it's still working.
Flashed 5.0.1. Thanks stooges! Everything seems great but i cant get my tether to work. Does anyone have tether working on 5.0.1? If so what is settings? Thanks.
That maybe a bug I have it to and I can't get anything but here is a app that will give you free and unlimited tethering: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.snclab.wifitetherrouter&hl=en
Trust me when I say the price is worth it just do the settings he recommends:
For LG G3 using this config
Interface wlan0
Method 2
Channel 1
Encryption wpa2-psk
"No Firmware Reload" <- UNCHECKED
if not work
Interface wlan0
Method 3 - HostApd
Encryption wpa2-psk
Channel 1
Drivers nl80211
"HostApd Patch" <- UNCHECHED
Thanks goes to creator

Same problem here, suing wifi tether router. My devices can't even see my phone. Perhaps the app might need an update. Has anyone found a solution since the lollipop update?
No luck!

Same for me. I've tried both sets of settings with no luck. Worked great until I flashed Lollipop last night.
apn method
Still no tether for me. I understand the apn method works for native hotspot although i cant confirm or get it working myself. This is a lollipop deal breaker for me as this is my only internet access. I have been rumming barepop but think im going to flash clean stock and try apn method 1 more time. If no luck i going back to zv6.
The hotspot hack works. Make sure you're saving the apn when you do it. And do it to both.
I can't get WiFi tether router to work either.
If you do the apn thing go to my unlock post and look in the apn setting I have a hack that may work.
Also sorry about the app not working I tried

Does the apn hack work on 3g? This is the only reason i can come up with for why i cant get it to work. Im on lte/cdma. Follow instructions exactly. When i turn on hotspot, 3g turns off then hotspot turns off. Then error pops up saying something network error then popul about info for hotspot subscription. Ive gone to youtube to watch method. Its easy idk what im missing.

I don't think that's an issue. But maybe.
I'm on the fringe of LTE so my signal bounces back and forth between LTE and 3G.
Theres a link in the top of the OP of the Hotspot hack I made. It's in the International thread on the same thing apparently. You might get some more help from there.

If you don't have the options in MORE go to your Mobil data area make sure you switch to global and see if they show up then. There was a discussion about why some people care missing those options in the settings on another thread just can't remember now where, it might have been in the ZV8 stock rom thread.

I reinstalled the ROM and wiped everything just like that post said, and still didn't see any tether options. It wasn't until I did the ##RTN# on my dailer using my MSL number that it finally worked. So thank you for pointing me to that post.
Any progress on getting this to work? I have the sprint G3 rooted with the original rom but still having the data teathering error. I tried doing the shortcuts trick but it didnt work with the lite version.
Nevermind I got mine to work now. Took a couple reboots but the shortcuts method worked.
