uhhhm not sure.. maybe you can install the apk with file manager..? not sure if neet root for usb tethering though..
Try PDA-Net It works pretty good. It has a paid and a free version. Here is the website http://www.junefabrics.com/android/
Oh and no you don't need a rooted phone. Just install the Windows or Mac app and it will also install the Android app to your phone.
Works great on the G1.

I have the latest build of Android 2.1 for Sprint hero and I wanted to know if it can be rooted. I dropped down to the .5 build but my gps wouldnt work and a few other things wouldn't work. I mostly just want wireless tethering but I need to root my phone but I don't want to lose any functionality. Anyone have any advice for me?

Did you tried this you device http://unrevoked.com/m/ ?
Download the APP, then run it.
I just used that app and I don't think It worked. I have the wireless tether 2.0.5-pre3 and when I try to run it it says my kernel
Doesn't have all the necessary features to run the app. Am I using the wrong WiFi tether app?

There is no method for obtaining root with that version. You have to flash the 2.27.651.5 RUU and then use the link provided earlier. Once you have root then you can install one of the 2.27.651.6 ROMs if you want.
I did it using this. Went through a lot of other "solutions" first, but they didn't apply to my phone/build apparently. This worked perfectly!
and apparently I'm to new to post to "external" links, even though it's elsewhere on this site.

You'll need a custom kernel/ROM on your phone for wireless tether to run properly.
I bought my Galaxy Tab yesterday and I want to know some must-have applications for it. I've already installed AZW Launcher, GO Weather and some goodies like this, but I want to know what's tablet optimized on the Market.
You didn't say if your tablet is rooted or not...

My Galaxy Tab is fully rooted
Then go for titanium backup, setcpu,root explorer,Netflix,HD wallpapers, to name a few...

I already have Titanium Backup Full and Root Explorer. (Just downloaded again since I already had those bought on my Galaxy S)
I'm in Brazil so I can't watch NetFlix... -.-
Look in the themes and apps forum under the galaxy tab.it will give you more ideas.

Maybe you should search on [Q] section or start a new treat if no one ask before. I also would like to know about this

Ok there is a similar post on this. Plug tablet in and charge it. While tablet is charging unplug your pc and then reboot it up to reset the usb ports. take your tablet and connect usb cable to pc. Ensure you have the samsung usb drivers loaded. Put your tablet in download mode and using odin try reflashing.

Hi I want to USB teather but it said that the kernel does not support it.
Any ideas or fixes for this. I'm using 2.3.5 and my pc is windows xp. Here's what it said the kernel needs.
This means that the Linux kernel on your device does not have the features (CONFIG_NETFILTER/CONFIG_IP_NF_IPTABLES and/or RNDIS) required for tethering. If you have an ADP G1, please read (or ADP16KernelUpdate if you're using Donut), otherwise you will need to find a firmware/kernel with these features.
lol doesn't mean nothing to me can anyone help.

you need custom kernel,as x8's stock kernel doesnt support tether...
yep PDANet is a app...download and install it from market and when u opened it it will ask PDANet for PC to download...download it and install it on pc..then u can tether....
You need to install the ip tables to tether on stock. Search for it.

You can use pdanet for usb tethering. You have to install pdanet client software on yr windows- you can download it from Junefabrics website.. download pdanet app from market and install it on your phone.. don't forget to turn On usb debugging on yr phone.. just connect yr phone to pc using usb cable..

Is there any way to tether with usb on kuyadroid with it's defaults function because i'm currently using easytether pro and it has very slow speed on my pc.
I already tried pdanet trail version
Officially corp via W8
AFAIK you need to use a third-party app to tether on the stock kernel.
Unfortunately I think the good usb tethering apps are not free..
Good luck.
Suggestions for some good paid apps??
