On Winmo, I used to be able to use Internet Sharing application to share internet via bluetooth with a PC. Is this at all possible on Donut?
Thanks!
I know pdanet has this functionality, but it may only be available in eclair. I would download pdanet and try.

hey guys i jus wanted to know is there any way that i can use my java based phone's internet on my nook. I have done the same thing on my pc but i had pc suit for that. Is there any app that can do this?
I've the same question.
Now I am using JoikuSpot to share internet connection via WiFi but I am curious how to do it via Bluetooth.
I believe it is possible for a laptop to get internet access from a tab though the USB tether, Is it possible for it to be reversed?
Recently I broke the wifi trying to get it into ad-hoc mode, so I can't use the wifi to connect to the internet, marketplace, etc.
Is there a way for me to get a connection from my laptop to the tab?
Im on FROYO 2.2
Thanks,

Do you mean use your laptop as the wifi access point? In that case you will have to replace the default wpa_supplicant file. Search for the thread here....
Not as a wireless access point. I believe normally, you use the USB cable to get the internet on your computer from your Tab Data plan (Correct me if I am wrong)
So, I was wondering if you could use the internet connection from your laptop and forward it to your tab through the USB cable.
I use my tab as a wireless access point several times already-mostly at work because of network restrictions at the office.(Settings/wireless and networks/Tehtering and portable hotspots)
I don't know if you can use USB tethering from laptop to tab-probably not.....
Hi,
You can get a form.of reverse tethering over WiFi by using an application called Connectify (works best on Windows 7). Install Connectify, tell it which connection you want to share, then connect to the created hotbot on the Tab.
Obviously, if your Wifi is properly broken this isn't particularly useful, but Im not aware of any way that the USB interface could be used for tethering in that direction.
Hope this helps...

Yed as agc93 said, connectify shares your pc internet connection through wifi. You need to setup static ip address in the galaxy though.
Good luck

I need help setting up USB tethering from my hero to my Mac. I'm using hero deck gingerbread rom and have the USB tether option available, but I don't know what settings to input on my Mac in order for it to work. Does anybody know? I know that I can use wifi tether but would prefer to go via USB since the phone gets so hot. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

It's gonna get hot anyway it's the 3G radio that makes it hot and uses up the battery. You should just plug the phone in with usb and use the wireless then you can feel like you have a wired tether. If you plug in the phone to the computer you will burn the battery faster than the computer can charge it. Plug it into the wall to get a stronger charge.
I've found that I get faster speeds via USB on my ubuntu pc. I wish there was a way to get it to work via USB on my mac.

I used to use an app called pdanet http://junefabrics.com/android/ to tether to my mac.
It has two parts, an app for the mac and an app for the phone, you installed both and it set up a wired internet connection. Worked great for me.
the native usb tether dosnt work on mac for somereason however pda net and easy tether has a desktop client for mac that works.
or you could try usb tether from google.code it should work on mac
Thanks for the help! Pdanet works very well. It's very odd, at times I'll have solid download speeds and other times less than desirable speeds. I wonder why that is.
Hi,
I searched to find a way to connect my Note to my laptop's internet, but couldn't find a way.
I have no wifi router and therefor I wonder if there is a way to surf internet in my Note by using laptop's internet connection.
Thanks for any suggestions
Connectify. Or reverse tethering (search for it in Android apps section).
Thank you
After trying so hard to get the first option to work on my PC i had to give up.
Tried second one and downloaded the trial from google play and I am now amaized how fast and good this is working. Now I have full internet access on my Note. As fast as my PC's. But you have to use the cable thou.
There's a new app called Opengarden. I haven't tried it, but it looks promising. It uses bluetooth, I think.
Not same
Opengarden is not supporting reverse tethering it is tethering. It means you can use Opengarden to use your mobile's internet on your pc, not your pc's internet on your mobile like reverse tethering. Two diffrent apps.
Just so i've the picture clear, are you using a 3G Dongle to connect to the net on your laptop.

I am using a cable. It is student biulding and I connect the cable to my PC and the internet is there.
The problem is that the galaxy Note does NOT support AD Hock as I tried much and changed some system setings from /system/bin. If there was a solution for NOTE to support Ad Hock it would be amaizing.
Hi everyone
Well I had Jelly Bean for a long time ago (since they ported it) and now I'm on ParanoidAndroid 1.9.2.
I just wanna know how to activate tethering from my Mac using BT cuz I left my AirPort to a friend ... I just want to notice that tethering WiFi connection over BT in Jelly Bean is working very well but slow connection (BT speed : 1MO/s)
So can I do the revers by Sharing Internet via BT Pan. Other thing : the recognise the BT sharing from my phone as a Pan connection not DUN.
Thanks for any help!
I got a better solution for me. Get the AirDroid app from the playstore. Deactivate mobil data and create a mobile wifi Hotspot with your phone. Connect your mac or PC and share your files.
hope it is a possible solutions for you.
Edit:
Sorry, didn't get it right. You can share your Internet via USB too. Should be handled with good speed.

I know those tricks even revers tethering (you have to test that app http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1371345) but my q is : I have internet on my Mac by LAN but I don't have AirPort(the wifi card for Macs) and I only have BT on it so I want to share my internet connection w/ my phone (on JB) using BT Pan on the Mac (as it names it).
I'm on lion 10.7.4 (updated)
Thankss again
