Can any one point me to a rom that has the WIRED tether app?? I remember seeing it in a rom I had flashed previously, but I can't recall which one it was. I'm currently on Aloysius SNOW which only has the wireless tether app.

I believe there are a couple of free ones in the market place. Search for Easy Tether or PDAnet. Both have paid/donate versions as well. If you don't want to go this route, PM me and I can point you in another direction.
Evil Eris v.2.0.1 and version 3.0 have wired tethering built in already. All you have to do is plug the phone into your computer, and there's an "internet sharing" option under the menu where it lets you choose between charge only, HTC sync and disk drive.
Also, xtrROM, which is a marvelous ROM I might add, has the wired tether program also, you have to install the ROM and the StockApps zip also.

Internet Tethering over USB? Is that something that was added with 1.6 or is that Eclair functionality? I notice it is in the CyanogenMod latest builds.
How does it work in comparison to bluetooth or wifi tether?
Does it require root?
TIA
What do you mean work in comparison, it's wired and the others are wireless. Speeds shouldn't depend on connection.
If you install cyanogen's build, then you have root so it shouldn't matter as you have it already. There is an application wired tether for root users, name explains.
I don't think it is in the AOSP build, so it was added by him or whoever he gives credit to.
There are 2 different Tethers for root users
Wired - Means u gotta connect your usb to your computer
Wireless - This will create an Ad Hoc wireless connection to your computer (no cable required)
This was added by cyanogen and is not part of eclair

What I was originally asking I guess was if the Wired USB tethering was now standard issue in Android 1.6 or 2.0 and as such was available to non-root users. From your response, I understand that is incorrect, and that wired tethering via USB was added by CM in the CM builds and therefore implicitly requires root.
Thanks for clarifying that for me!
If you wanted a non rooted version, search the market -there are several that don't require root.
so...
how is this done exactly on cyanogens rom? i cant find anything about it after searching for about an hour...

Yeah me and some people on another thread figured it out......
But first things first you need Windows XP service pack 3 or Windows Vista or Windows 7... I dont know about Mac.....
but Windows Xp is different than Vista or 7 because you need to download HTC sync to get the drivers for your G1 to be reconized as a modem..... Do not mount your G1..... once you have HTC sync installed you do not need to run it..... but now when you connect your G1 just check the internet tethering box and it should work(unless I missed a step)...
OK With Vista and Windows 7 the drivers are preloaded into the OS s do NOT need to download HTC synce... You just need to connect your phone do NOT mount and check the tehtering box... it should work....
is there a certain version for the G1 that I need?
Reverse tether g1 to pc network over usb cable
My android os is CyanogenMod 4.2.14.1,
1.Enable "Settings\Wireless controls\Internet tethering"
2.Install HTC Remote NDIS based Device driver(View attachment 277122)
3.Set the HTC adapter as: IP:192.168.2.1, Mask:255.255.255.0
4.Set the PC ethercard as shared connection
5.Run these codes in terminal:
su
ifconfig usb0 192.168.2.2 netmask 255.255.255.0
busybox route delete default
iptables -F
iptables -F -t nat
busybox route add default gw 192.168.2.1
setprop net.dns1 8.8.8.8
setprop "net.gprs.http-proxy" ""
6.Now your g1 could open browser to view any web pages on the internet, and update apps in the Market.

just wanted to say that
This works on Nexus One as well!
The routing stuff disuse posted, I mean.
The only problem is that I can't download stuff from the market yet. But hopefully I'll find a solution to this soon.
Thanks a lot! I've been looking for this for like a whole week.
I think I'll write an app which will just run this as a shell script.
thanks again!
XBOX PS3 Wii anyone????

Sure, I've seen before two attempts of reverse tethering with this approach with the same problem: Play Store stays "Downloading" or "Waiting for network" but It doesn't work. I've tried also my own method with the same results: Play Store is not working.
I think this has something to do with the way Play Store app is testing for Internet conectivity. Since it doesn't know if you've got one, it doesn't let you download nothing.
Maybe there is some Android SDK API call to flag the system that Internet connection is up? Any other clue?
Check out PDANet, especially if you're an avid texter like myself. Download the app from the app store or appbrain and get the PC client, hook your phone up via usb and connect to pdanet. Use the system tray app and right click on SMS Agent, you can now send and receive texts through your PC via your Android phone. How cool is that?
The only downfall i can see is that you're using the phone network connectivity as well as whatever else you're using. I've emailed the dev at Junefabrics for maybe implementing a SMS Agent only mode for the Android app.
Does anybody know a source for PDAnet?
ATT (my !favorite carrier --and you know what ! means) has blocked it from the market.

Since the TBH (thank you!!) NVRAM hack fixes the NAI that gets created for your MIP profile, there is no need for NAI manipulation at the application level with apps such as easytether.
My question is:
What is the suggested method for USB tether after removing the ".dun" from your NAI?
Ideally Im looking for RNDIS based tethering since its built into Windows 7 and most flavors of Linux. Its also simple to install a RNDIS driver on XP. It seems way less invasive to me then having to install a client application.
I have done some searching but have not found any USB RNDIS based tethering solution that works. Have working kernel modules been created (like the working tun.ko) that can be used to enable this?
Thanks
PleaseStirMe
Yes, search this forum for tun.ko as there is a post a few under yours where someone posted a working version of the tun.ko and a config.ko file as well.
Sent from my DROIDX using XDA App
Thanks SysAdmin but tun.ko is the not kernel module I am looking for. tun.ko is used to enable VPN. I am wondering if anyone has made a similar kernel module to enable RNDIS tether.
PleaseStirMe
All you need to do to enable USB tethering in Windows is edit the build.prop to get Phone as Modem to be included in the USB notification dropdown menu.
Simply edit the line ro.modem_available=0 to ro.modem_available=1.
Then reboot and connect the phone to the PC and select Phone as Modem from the drop menu.
You will get a notification that internal data will be disabled.
Open Network and Sharing Center and create a new DialUpNetworking connection and configure as follows:
User Name: [email protected] where the Xs are your 10 digit MDN.
Password: vzw
Number to Dial: #777
Save and hit connect and you're done.

Thanks for your reply. Pretty sure you have helped me in the past too.
That was not the exact solution I was looking for but it is a nice option since in windows can automatically open the connection when you launch your browser. I used to use that same DUN method with my e815.
PleaseStirMe
I realize that it's not RNDIS but it works fine and no client is required.
And yes, this hack dates back to the old days of e815 hacking and if you were hanging around the VZW Motorola forum on HoFo back then you might know me as kbman.

You're right, my apologies! I believe that was for openVPN, and I had read something else similar earlier that day! Thnx to cellzealot for the info as well!

I know there are a few dated threads about this but I was wondering if there was anyways to get a wireless, or wired keyboard working with a honeycomb nook color...? This is probably impossible but I was thinking maybe through wifi could be another way to do it? Was just wondering if there was any update on this front.
I have the same desire. The only solution I know of may come when the bluetooth function is successfully activated.
You will have to wait untill Bluetooth is working to use a physical keyboard.

Don't know about Honeycomb, but on Rooted 1.0.1 stock, WiFi Keyboard from the market works fine over wifi. I just used the standard instructions for installing a keyboard:
After installing from the market, mount system as r/w (I used Root Explorer for this). Copy the package called com.volosyukivan.apk from /data/app to /system/app. Reboot. Use Nook Color Tools to set it as the new keyboard.
This lets you log onto a web browser on your local network and use the keyboard from the computer.
On honeycomb, it could be even easier to set wifi keyboard as default.
Hi,
In ICS we have wifi direct feature but there is no app which can use it. I am not a developer so if someone can compile source of this wifi direct app and make it an apk http://developer.android.com/resources/samples/WiFiDirectDemo/index.html
This is provided by Google..so i think it only needs compilation.
This is just an example of how to get a connection started and to look for other ICS phones. You'd still need to write an app that knows how to utilize that connection.
so if someone were to meet up with a another friend on ics, they cant trade file with wifi direct currently??
sent from the xda app on my android smartphone.
Not with what he posted because it's not a complete app, but there might be other apps using it or other ways of doing it. I remember Bump can transfer files, I'm not sure if it uses wifi or bluetooth though and it's not ICS exclusive.
