[Q] USB tethering from Phone to Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 (Honeycomb) - Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm trying to find a way to use my Iphone 4 data plan (3G) on my Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 (Wi-Fi Only) through the USB cable/adapter but no luck so far.
I'm currently using the ROM Task Rom 9.0 on the tablet so Ad-Hoc is enable and I've been able to tether to the Iphone through Wi-Fi, however it drains my phone's battery pretty quickly.
I do have the Samsung USB adapter but when the Iphone is connected to the GT it only allows me to copy photos. It doesn't recognize the USB tethering.
Does anyone have any tip or advise???
I guess the same procedure could be applied to any cellphone regardless of the OS.

Note that this is the ORIGINAL 7" Tab section - you might have better luck in the 10.1 Tab section.
Other than that can't help sorry

I hadn't noticed sorry.
Thanks anyway.

bluetooth tethering

Hey,
sorry if this has been discussed already. I searched but couldn't find an answer.
I am wondering if I can tether the Galaxy tab from my blackberry Storm. ie. share the data from the Storm with the Tab.
I know about rooting the phone and changing the setting to allow wifi tethering. It seems to me that this only applies when tethering an Android device to the Tab via wifi. This wouldn't work with my phone because it doesn't have bluetooth.
So is there a way to provide internet to the tab via bluetooth from the Storm?
I tried blutooth thethering to my rooted droid eris and never got it to work. I went wifi a few day ago and it works well.

hope it works. I don't want to buy a new phone, atleast not yet!
can anyone help?
I tried Bluetooth tethering with my iphone 4 and was able to pair to recognize the iphone 4 and also on the iphone the galaxy pad was recognized however if you try to connect - the iphone 4 does not connect even though the Galaxy tab says it is paired.
Not sure what is the issue here. I read in the other issues with Bluetooth keyboard that they also have issues pairing certain keyboards.
I too want to use my iphone 4 data plan on the galaxy tab for data usage.
Anyone tried this or experience same problem?
Thanks
I m using the application "bluetooth file transfer" on my htc hero and it works just fine. And no need to root.
Didn't try on my tab though
Edit: sorry didn't read your post well thought you wanted to share files..
It disheartens me to see no activity in this thread. I'm really hoping for a bluetooth tethering option for my Blackberry (company won't give us any other option). Can't BB and Android just get along?!
Can anyone explain what the issue is with the Galaxy Tab and Bluetooth tethering?
They apparently have it working fine on the Xoom:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=968801
Why would it work there and not with Galaxy Tabs?
Not sure why this had to be done by Google in Xoom stock rom. Archos had has this feature. At first it would not work with BB. Then a forum member discovered the issue was the compression parameter. Recently archos incorporated this fix in the newest firmware and BB are tethering fine now.
Ordered a Galaxy Tab today. I will see if I can figure this out once it's here...
I've played with this issue on Archos Tab.
If someobody wants to play with this, here's some info on how we got it to work see here:

Hi
I have no problem on my blackberry 9780. I can tether this devices internet connection via bluetooth. the app name is PdaNet. Along with this app you can tether blackberry's connection to any device via bluetooth. It was successfull with my ex tablet.
however I couldnt manage to connect my galaxy tab. the issue to solve is the tab.
if we can find to connect this table via bluetooth (for internet sharing), the problem would be solved.
anyone has a solution?
thnx

Galaxy Tab 10.1 - Device not recognised
Hi,
I have the same issue, I am running Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit. This all worked last week and now it is simply not recognised. I have uninstalled all of the drivers and re-installed them again but with no luck. I am wondering if MS has pushed another dodgy update again! The Tab is at 3.1 and is rooted... does anyone have an idea why this is happening?
*checks forum section*
Umm, Im pretty sure this is the Galaxy Tab 7" section. You just might get help if you post in the correct location.

It's not their fault that this forum is unclearly titled, and you could be a little more helpful too.
Here's the correct forum for your posts...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1050
Edit: I've asked a mod to consider renaming the Galaxy Tab forums to something else like Galaxy Tab 7.0", like the 10" one does, to avoid further confusion.
Make sure the USB Debugging option in Applications is DISABLED. I get consistent detection as usb storage already since I turned that off.

[Q] Ethernet adapter for p1000 ?

Is there a way to connect my p1000 to wired ethernet ?
At the moment i dont have a laptop, so sometimes when i can't get wireless in the area (or no wifi for whatever reason), but ethernet is available i cant use it...
Been reading that there are some sort of adapters that worked on some chinese tablets...
Any of that goodness for p1000 ?
Tab is on ICS (cm9 nightlies)...
Haven't seen such things, maybe you could buy a small pocket AP.

Enabling Bluetooth PAN Profile for tethering

Hi!
I'm trying to share my Galaxy Ace's Internet connection with a Nexus 7 via Bluetooth. Unfortunately, the stock ROM lacks "Bluetooth tethering" option. Now, I know that I can install FoxFi on my Galaxy Ace and PDANet Tablet on my Nexus 7, but I understand from reading this forum that Nexus 7 has native support for Bluetooth PAN.
My question: is there a way to enable BT PAN in Galaxy Ace, in order to share Internet with my N7 without installing anything else in my tablet? Thanks

Enable AX88772 CHIP SET on Android 7.0

Hello,
I am not a developer but hope to get some support here as samsung has not been a big help so far.
Before updating Android versions my Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 SM-T713 would connect to Ethernet via the plugable USB 2.0 OTG Micro-B adapter.
It seems that the specific chipset used by the adapter is no longer enabled on this specific device, while I am told it is still included in all Android version 4 and up.
So my question is how can I enable the AX88772 CHIP SET in order to regain ethernet connectivity.
I tried going into dev mode and selecting "RNDIS Ethernet" in the USB configuration but that did not do anything.
Another issue possibly related is that when connecting the tablet to a Win 10 laptop it is not recognized. Here I tried many solutions including installing the media pack and other options available. No success. If this is an unrelated problem then I will post this secondary issue in another post.
Any ideas or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Is there a reason why you need Ethernet rather than wifi?

Yes, we live in a house without wifi on purpose. My wife get's immediate headaches and body pains when she is exposed to a direct signal. After having been removed from it for several years in our house I feel the same way when it is on. Our house is wired and we use both ethernet over power or ethernet over coax depending on what room we are in. The last one works beautifully.
