WiFi HotSpot for root - LG Revolution

Found this the other night and wanted to share.
market.android.com/details?id=android.tether
If you open the link via the Market it will tell you that your carrier doesn't support it.
If you open the link via browser on your phone you'll be able to login to the market with your gmail credentials and invoke the download.
If you open the link via the market a second time you'll notice that install is an option.
I was able to install to my GingerVolt 1.3 without issue. I haven't actually tested to see if it works as a hotspot but it looks pretty legit.
The link actually came from the help off another HotSpot app I demoed in the market for $10. Said to use this instead if rooted.
Thanks to all of the devs for all of their time and mind blowing work. You guys are insane!

Add https:// to the beginning of the link. The forum app wouldn't let me post a link as my second post.

It wouldn't allow me to download it via the website. It said my device was not compatible.

You need to type in "wireless android tether" in your search engine and download the latest beta. I didn't go through android market.

I second that. I downloaded and installed Beta 11 from the google.code repo, changed the device setting to LG Optimus S and the type to "softap". Worked perfectly allowed my rooted Nook Colors to connect FINALLY via my phone. I had used WF Garden before but could not connect my Nooks, now all my devices are connecting without any issues.

Wow. That 2nd link worked like a charm. Thanks

I just discovered this app yesterday. I really like it. It works well on my Xoom Wifi. Since the original post I'm sure it's been even further optimized.

I have it installed on my evo, I like it better than the current market, although it is kinda windows phone 7 styled
Word of warning, dont bother trying to buy a movie if youre rooted. They will accept your money and give you this...

Can Google make it so when my apps are updating, it only does it one at a time? The phone becomes practically unusable when 10 apps are trying to download at the same time. Super annoying.

just don't use your phone for a minute while they update
Maybe there's a possibility, like the netflix mod, to bypass the root check by someone that has the knowledge to do that sort of thing
If I install this, can I receive another Market update in the future? Or I should again install via APK?

Alright I think I have figured out that you cannot review content that was downloaded using the other market I think? Yeah it is pretty confusing if anyone could clarify this a bit more?

I manually updated this, works fine. I do have a problem though, maybe it's me ;o)
How do you manually update an App after installing this latest Market app.
Example:
I've installed the new market place and notice that the Amazon UK app had an update this morning. I have set this app to manual update, but when I open the app through the new market, the only 2 buttons are 'open' and 'uninstall', there's no update button.
Confused? I am... any ideas guys?

Revolution update VS910ZV6 received

Check out the link for a description...
Http://support.vzw.com/pdf/system_update/revolution.pdf
I received the update at 5 am est. Haven't notice anything different except for the keyboard not popping up when going to messages.

Too bad they couldn't have wrapped these fixes into a 2.3 rollout. These bug fixes seem pretty trivial...
Is this the update that is going to "block" tethering like the update to the TBolt?
Not sure. I wont be surprised if they had something hidden within the update that would disable it. Dont take my word for it tho, this is only my opinion lol
Sent from my VS910 4G using XDA App
Well, I do like the fact that my keyboard won't pop up in messenging. Other than that, its no good to me. I can get app updates, don't care about the call stuff, and yah, they probably have some more bloat ware. NO THANK YOU.
Hey Tylerfixer, can you snag the keyboard fix, and work that into your decrap 2.1? Could someone get the code for that fix?
I agree. Its a useless update lmao

Did you get tether working? I don't think anybody else has, also TheCubed working with them to get it going on LG Revo..
**Update available now**

I've got it working on my Win 7 ride. Its slow as snot, but it works. Also works on my IPAD, NOOK and a couple of other devices. It took me forever, but I did get it to work. I can't wait for TheCubed's version, I'm sure it will be much easier to use.

My update failed, keeps going into recovery and can't figure out where it downloads or how to avoid it. Any one else get this?
@ Lightning - Clockwork recovery gave me the same thing...It blocked it from installing.
Rebooted and came up like normal afte saying the install failed... I'm new to all this so I'm sure this is old news for the veterans here - but Clockwork recovery blocks OTA updates. I don't mind when it comes to minor updates such as this - But I'm wondering if I'm going to have to wait for an updated rooted Revo 2.3 ROM in order for me to experience the GINGERLUV??
@ drt054 - WIFI tethering works just fine on my revo. Downloaded the 3.1 beta2 google apk (right here in these forums)
Installed clean - fired up the app and noticed that I would get intermittent connection... Then I turned on Access-control and once I granted permissions to the connection everything went like butter. 4G speeds off the laptop no problem!

So I take it that CM7 is running the 2.3 kernel? I know TheCubed is working his wizardry on it for the revo. Saw the progress videos.. I'm excited!

Update Fails, stock unrooted!
When I attempted to update 2 or 3 times I got the following error: "Device runs out of memory."
Is this update file saving to internal phone memory that you need root access to save to??? The file is 69.5MB and all of the 3 storage locations have over 700 MB of remaining storage.
After the 2nd or Third time it now tells me that there is "no new software update available."
Anyone else having trouble???
I'm getting the same "out of memory" error. I have plenty of space as well, so not sure what the problem is.
I'm rooted w/o clockwork mod installed.
