Wifi tethering means turn your device into a portable hotspot.. it lets you Pc, laptop an other device to connect to web via WiFi over the internet connection on your phone..
So.. you can't get free 3g internet by wifi tethering

but with wifi you can get free internet but some wifi hotspots must be there to use wifi

I thought PDAnet only does USB or Bluetooth.
You can wait for the OTA Froyo lol. that has USB and wifi tethering in it.
i was wondering if our X8 has mobile GPRS. i cannot connect to the net unless i turn on wifi.
Lol it is capable of GPRS, EDGE and HSDPA, but you have to pay for it at your provider.

Wifi take priority over GPRS.
either you use Wifi or GPRS but not at the same time.
Try this, turn on GPRS first, then turn on Wifi. X8 will automatically disable GPRS.
Wifi is not chargeable while GPRS is chargeable (and slower).

I use the Bluetooth through PDA along with the network spoof I always choose spoof WiFi and just to see if it would use my WiFi from the phone I turned off all mobile data on my phone and it used the WiFi instead of my mobile data and to me seems to be pretty much faster than using the mobile data ....

So what your saying is, your using BT PAN linking your watch to your phone but you want to use WIFI instead of your cellular data for BT PAN? That works but only with certain BT PAN apps. If I understand your question correct.

Tethered via Bluetooth, using phones wifi instead of data. Works fine with international roms, but with some carrier branded ROMs, if tethering is enabled, wifi is disabled
Gear itself has no wifi, but apps can be tricked into thinking Bluetooth tether is actually a wifi connection via the network spoofer (closed framework module)

So we established there are no apps that will share the wifi internet via bluetooth and that the switching off of wifi during tethering is an automated function. So is there a way to prevent that auto-switch from occurring?
At any rate, if you have the galaxy note 3, and you have a USB 3.0 computer, just tether the internet from USB. Great for when at home, but the downside of this is: if you want to reverse tether from wifi in an airport or coffee shop, then a laptop is required. And at that point, what would you be doing on the watch, that isn't easier on either your phone or laptop, now that you're forced to already have those items out?
Therefore, it would be nice to tether wifi to bluetooth so I can just leave my phone in my pocket and not be forced to use mobile data when I don't want to.

Depends on rom. Most (if not all) international roms can use phone's wifi with Bluetooth tether
Spoofer Module?

This "Closed Framework Module" your refer to, what is it's actual Module Name (I can't seem to find it among the many avaialbel Xposed modules).
I have a need to connect to a WiFi device (Camera) not connected to the internet and be able to get internet data via 4G at the same time. Is it possible to force connection to the mobile network for data with the WiFi on? Rooted on KK.
TIA
All I can think of would be to tether your data, portable hotshot to the camera.

Thanks for the replies.
Any suggestions where I can learn about portable hotspots? Is this a device requiring a separate data plan and acts like a mobile wifi access point? The camera I'm attempting to use wants to be on it's own network.
I've tethered before to a PC thru both USB or Bluetooth, but not familiar with hotspot.
You can do wifi tether on your phone...

I've tried Wifi tethering, but the camera wants to act like a router/master and can not be changed. The SSID and passwords are the only settable things.
Ad Hoc is not an option. It does the address assignment and security password management. Maybe I need a different software on the phone? Or maybe a configuration I'm not doing??
I use Null23 with an unrooted Sprint Note 3 to access the internet. I have Bluetooth tethering set on the phone and Bluetooth internet access set on the Gear. I can connect to the internet OK, but only when I am connected to the internet by wifi on the phone. If I set the wifi to off on the phone, the gear will not connect to the internet. Am I missing something? Are the 3G/4G speeds too slow so that the gear doesn't think it is connected?

Thanks for directing to the other thread. It appears that for sprint you still need planet and spoofing even though the note2 lets you check Bluetooth tethering.
Thanx guys..I can tether my device to tablets, pc's etc. but I used to be able to connect galaxy to internet via note 3 and receive a connection even on 4g, now only when I'm connect to wifi. What is planet? I have spoof on null Rom. Thanx again.
