Anyone using NC to tether to a android phone?
So I only have luck with Nexus One, but HTC phones are not working.
It's connected to the wifi hotspot of my desire HD, but the wifi is white in color (connecting to my home wifi, it's green). I guess white means it is not connected to the internet.
I have searched around, threads talk about NC not able to see adhoc networks, and I tried, but it didn't work.
Anyone else facing the same problem and managed to solve it?
ROM: CM7-RC4
Most modern smart-phones can do an infrastructure tether, instead of adhoc.
What tethering app are you using on the phone? is it secured?
If your phone only supports adhoc, it was perm disabled in one of the recent nightlies but you can re-enable it. Try searching the development fourm for "Adhoc enable"
I'm sending you this with my Nook via wifi-tether on my Droid Eris. Both are running CM7...makes things easy peasy.

My Nook is running CM7-RC4. My Desire HD isn't rooted, still running its stock wireless hotspot application. Everything else can connect to my desire HD's wireless hotspot, except my nook.

Maybe that's why it works on my friend's nexus1, it is running CM7-RC4 as well.

I do not know for sure, but you may want to look into rooting your phone and trying different Wifi tethering apps. My phone is by no means high-end (LG Vortex) and I'm using the WiFi hotspot widget, from the market, to tether to my nook.
Running Droid X with Teamblackhat 3g Hotspot patch. (easily findable on google) Tethering laptops, Nook Color, even a colleague's Iphone has worked flawlessly. Not sure if it's verizon exclusive though.
my htc hero is tethering just fine to my nook color. Im using the wireless tether app from market, might as well just root your phone.
No problems tethering to a Droid 2 Global running Fission ROM and using wireless-tether for root.
NC is running CM7 with Tablet Tweaks testing rom (latest plus customizations.)
No problems tethering my nook with my inspire

I tether all the time using MobileAP. Built in tether function on froyo and up. SGS Captivate here. Won't work with apps like android tether. They use adhoc.
I tether off my evo as my nooks only source of Internet.
Sz rc2d.
Oh well, still unsuccessful in finding a non-intrusive solution for this.
I'm using a Nokia E72 with the JoikuSpot application which creates an ad-hoc network and getting mixed results. It was working on the train earlier but now it's failing to find the network. I'm using CM7 RC4.
Pretty seamless with google nexus s to tether wirelessly. That is sure to change when gayTT takes over.

I also tether with my Evo. Works great.

I figured with all the people who managed to tether, it could be a problem with the wifi hotspot app that HTC has bundled with their stock rom.
The weird thing is while clearly browsers, market don't work, gtalk & gmail still works.
I am unable to get my nook connect to an adhoc network broadcast from Ubuntu. It used to work fine under Windows but now that has stopped working as well. What settings are we supposed to use? Ive looked around and all people say is "create an adhoc network and connect to it"
Im running Honeycomb v4 on the emmc of my Nook Color
I am running tether from my droid 1 which only does ad hoc. The original wpa_supplicant on the nook can only read infrastructure. Don't remember where I found the one I have, but it works pretty well.

I'm interested in getting my wife's Nook Color to work with my HTC Hero. What version of wi-fi tether are you using? Have you done anything to the Nook to get it to work?
Thanks.

So my rooted Tab comes with unlimited 3G connection, tried several wifi tether apps from the Market and my HTC Desire Z doesn't seem to detect it. Is there a compatability issue here?
Hopefully I can get it to work so I can save money by being able to use wifi tethering from my Tab to my CP. Thanks
Google wifi tether and got this, hope it helps.

Tried the Google wifi tether app, it installed fine and seems to be working but my cellphone(Desire Z) still cannot detect any wifi signal. =(
I think that PDAnet will also work fine, if I'm not mistaken.

Thanks for the replies. Finally got it to work! =)
I'm trying to figure how to successfully tether my Asus Transformer to my Milestone running the latest CM7 RC4. Using the built in 3G hotspot, I am able to connect to the phone but it does not seem to be actually sharing the connection because I can not even go to any sites on the browser. I have also tried Tether Blu Free and Wireless Tether apps from the market with no luck (same thing over bluetooth, I connect but it doesn't seem to properly share the data connection). Anybody had any luck with this or have any suggestions? Going on road trip today and hoping to get this working.
RC5 now update too quickly
Still not working on RC5
Has anybody succesfully tethered their Milestone with CM7 to a Transformer? It is frustrating because bluetooth tethering works flawlessly on my fiance's Milestone with rooted stock 2.1-update1 using Wifi tether app.

The OG Droi/Milestone from what I understand does not have the hardware needed for the built in 3 g hot spot to work. you have to use this apk http://code.google.com/p/android-wi...tail?name=wifi_tether_v3_0-pre14.apk&can=2&q=
Works for me.
Good luck.
I've been searching for the last two days...alas I can't find what I'm looking for. My EVO 4G will not connect to my Galaxy tab 8.9. When I had the wifi 2.8 it connected with no problem. What am I doing wrong?
ok i got a question.. on my old galaxy s2 with jellybean i was able to use the wifi tether root for my wife's android to tether to.and now with my htc wit kitkat, only my laptop picks up the network. her fone dosent even show the hotspot.is there certain settings i need to change on my tether app or does HTC just have some kind of tether guard?

I am not great guru on these phones (or any for that matter). I have similar situation. Had an Evo4G that would wifi tether after root. This phone (Desire 510) seems to have additional guards. After installing the 3.0.3 of the wifi-tether apk there is a message that appears in the log indicating the phone takes control of the wireless ethernet interface after tethering has started. This kills the wifi tether.
I haven't identified what process is block the wifi tether but there is one called tetherguard. Mine is a Sprint phone so tether is available at a fee. The phone must be capable.
