It is a JB issue i think. I use wifi tethering very often and when i upgrade to jb, my pc gave the same error. Usb tethering works but wifi tethering is not working. I advise you to install a 4.0.4 custom rom.

USB tethering not working on Super Jelly Bean v4.0+Fusion kernel (v5.5) on Xperia Ray

I installed Super Jelly Bean v4.0 with the Fusion v5.5 kernel on my Xperia Ray without any issues, except that USB tethering is not working. Each time I check off the USB tethering box, it unchecks itself and nothing happens. Sometimes, it will display the message "USB tethering error".
I had USB tethering working with the regular factory firmware (v4.1.0.562 and all the previous versions I had before) with my Windows 7 Pro pc. Does anyone know if there are any logs I can check to see what is going wrong? Any suggestions on what I can do?

I think I figured it out. With the phone plugged in, I went into Device Manager and uninstalled the NDIS device, disconnected and then reconnected the phone. The stock firmware must have used an old/incompatible NDIS driver.
hmm.,.. tethering worked after I re-installed the driver. Now that I turned tethering off, and tried turning back on again, it has failed. Is anyone else having issues?

I uninstalled the driver in Windows again, and disconnected/reconnected my phone to my pc and it has started to work again. It seems this is the only way to get it working. I would post this in the development section where I downloaded the firmware, but I don't have sufficient access, or not enough posts....

[Q] Bluetooth issues - cant pair up properly

Evening all I'm hoping someone here might be able to help me sort this little problem I have here. I am trying to pair my phone to my pc which has a small Bluetooth dongle installed in it.
I have windows 7 on the pc and Omega v45 ( 4.2.2 ) yet everytime I try to connect I get various problems. When windowz detects the phone it comes up with an issue locating a driver and just shows Bluetooth peripheral Device driver unknown, ie it can't find it.
I am wanting to run the EVGA Precision app ( https://play.google.com/store/apps/...lt#?t=W251bGwsMSwyLDEsImV2Z2EucHJlY2lzaW9uIl0.) and run that from my phone but no matter what I try I can't get my phone and PC to talk to each other.
Has anyone else had this issue and been able to fix it please.

Missing tethering options?

I recently noticed that my wifi only z4 tab is missing the portable hotspot/tethering menu from the more... menu inside settings (it's completley gone not just disabled). I tried the fxp aosp rom and it has the options for tethering but nfc and screen rotation don't work on that rom + there is no recovery for it that i could find (androplus one wouldn't boot into recovery so i guess its just for the stock rom). Is this something nobody has on the z4 tab or is something wrong with my device (the option still wasn't there after reflashing a factory rom with flashtool)? Does anyone know a way to enable at least the USB tethering as i need that the most or is there a recovery that works with the fxp rom?
Any help would be greatly appreciated as it is becoming more and more annoying working with the small screen of a phone (i use the usb tethering to make the device act as a display for a Raspberry PI with VNC).
Afaik wireless tethering / portable hotspot is only possible with the LTE version. It's logical too, on your phone you can only wirelessly tether your data connection, not another WiFi network.
I don't know what exactly you want to do with USB tethering. Do note that you might need to use the 'detect USB' function for USB stuff to work. By default the USB port is not checking for attached devices, because of the waterproofness.

Ah okay... That's a shame... but thank you for telling me anyway, its the first device i have that had the option missing (2013 n7 WiFi only has it and its useful to connect the tab to a WiFi and tether with USB to a computer) so i didn't really know what to think of it Maybe any idea on how to get the androplus recovery or any custom recovery working with the fxp aosp rom? If there is a way I could at least flash gapps and supersu.

I can only guess based on what I've read, but I suggest checking the AndroPlus kernel thread or starting a new one with this specific question.

Good Evening/Hello/Hi,
