Tethering - Mobile data link lost - RAZR i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

As soon as I turn on tethering and connect, I instantly get "Tethering: Mobile data link lost"?
This is the same for both wireless and USB.
Any suggestions welcome, as I've a train journey tomorrow where I was hoping to tether and work...

You my friend are a legend! I must've missed that thread. I simply added ",dun" to the APN type and it's up and running! :good:
Awesome, that'll make the train journey better!

Nexus S 4g Radio Software update GWK74 - 2.3.7 is a lie.

The reasons that I wanted this update was the promise of better radio and to get Google Wallet.
The 3g icon is shown all the time now, but speeds are 2g at best on the same places I used to get 2g so, just the icon changed.
Even where I used to be roaming it shows 3g, but the speed, 8 to 80kbps is the average, just like before.
I'm posting links for the new apk's that came with the update plus the old apk for Netflix, the updated one won't let you watch on 2 devices simultaneously.
(I had to remove the "h t t p : / /" from the links because I'm a new user).
Wallet.apk - db.tt/cwXPbOJA
Shopper.apk - db.tt/WQPistv2
Netflix.apk - db.tt/Rif4IF1z
I'm not sure you can just download the apk to your SD and install using a file explorer.
Let me know if it works or not.
Thanks,
Digo.

Of course you can still tether. I did not lose the ability to tether when my firmware updated to the newest version.
Or did you mean tether for free if that's not included in your service plan, which is an entirely different concept?
Yes, that's what I meant, tether for free no more.

With android 2.3.4 u can tether for free.

Are you even rooted? lol CM7 and many custom Roms/kernels are available that let you tether natively. Maybe give some more information so we can help you. Thanks for the files though, that was thoughtful.
You can flash another radio or latest radio as well, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1078213
Sorry guys, I feel stupid now . I wasn't able to tether with Wi-Fi tether, because I was connected to my home network. :|thanks for all the help.
Wild1z, I will try the cell radio that you posted to me. Tks a bunch

Why would you want to, usually, the connection is the other way around.

You can enable tethering or wifi hotspot. This will use the Internet on your note for pc, is this what you're looking for? What rom are you on?

when you install the tracetool service on the phone, it open the usb tunnel.. and then the ART works well.. need SU permissions and android debug bridge enabled on the phone

Working Tether without root (not wireless)

The Klink app works great with the HTC one for tethering without root.
It does require you to set it up on the computer you're tethering with, and the phone.
Long time lurker and I haven't hit the post requirement for link posting, just search Klink in the play store.
I'm not sure if this is common knowledge, if so please let the post sink and disregard it.
I just purchased based on your opinion..it's Pretty good ..thanks

It appears you can usb tether with sense too, just need to install HTC sync manager and enable usb sync in the phone settings.
I didn't bother installing HTC sync manager, so couldn't confirm yet. But information seems that it'll work.

I am glad USB tethering works. I have been using EasyTether on my Moto Photon for about 1.5 years without a single problem. very stable.
It's my first time hearing of Klink.... is it stable?

Can't connect to wifi

So this was mentioned and never solved. But when I try to connect to my network I get " network disabled, because the connection is to slow" what else can I do to fix this. I actually called at&t and I did a master reset. So I connected to Starbucks wifi after. Which previously I wasn't able to before doing the master reset. But when I got here to my house. It wouldn't connect it keeps giving me this error. What can I do ?

If you disable this, it will stop prompting you about that and will also stay connected to not so great WiFi (if you have crappy WiFi).
It's actually been solved..I've posted this on a few other topics. Unless you were looking for something else?
I disabled it. Might be their WiFi isn't so great. But I am able to connect to my Comcast Wi-Fi.

Don't forget even if you have great Wifi there are a lot of factors that can make it unstable like interference

I actually tried all of that... and all that any of it did was prevent me from having web access, and prevent me to use my data plan for texting... it was a nightmare...
i've been chatting with samsung for 5 hours now and still don't have a fix. Any new info would be awesome to fix this problem.

WiFi Hot Spot.

Since I didn't see a thread about this wanted to start it. Has anybody successfully gotten WiFi Hotspot after rooting? Found a thread in the Sprint S5 forums about it here, don't know if we could use this same method.

Install Xposed Framework and download a module named X Tether. It will allow the native wifi tether to function.

Works like a charm with att unlimited plan. Make sure you restart after installing x tether. THANKS!
So X Tether can provide a mobile Hotspot or is it for "tethering"? If it's for tethering I already use clockworkmod tether for that.
EDIT: Got it working, thanks for all the help everybody. Now I wonder if we can get a Mobile Hotspot indicator in the notifications bar. Guess I need to follow the thread I posted and I'll let you guys know how it goes. Leaving this thread open for now if anybody needs future help with this.

If you want a "cleaner" method that goes through the default Mobile Hotspot, try this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2310850. Works for me and I'm on a non-AT&T SIM.
If anybody is interested in the wifi Hotspot toggle in their notifications menu, follow the link I posted.
