Has anybody been able to connect to Internet through USB tethering apps such as EasyTether (Paid version) or PdaNet?
If yes, is your phone rooted? are you getting LTE speeds?
Thanks

Not to sure about usb tether. Wifi tether is working fine on d3rp rom with generic jb/ics wan 0 selected. And yes with 4 g
I've been successfully using Foxfi on my One with bluetooth tethering to both my tablet and my laptop. I assume USB tethering would work too but haven't tried it. You need PDAnet Tablet on an Android tablet, or their Windows client on the laptop, to make it work. I had a connection problem with my laptop that was fixed with a reboot (as advised by PDAnet tech support, who were very responsive).
My phone is NOT rooted.

Before i unlocked and flashed my Nexus one, it was enough to connect my Nexus one via USB to my Laptop to use laptop internet connection.
The first time i did it, Windows installed a bridge network.
Now that i am using a customer ROM (CYA 5.5.0.3), it does not work anymore.
Any idea if it is removed from the custom ROM, or if i need any kind of menu to make it to work?
Thanks in advance
Cedric
any taker?
i cannot be the only one that is interested in this basic function?

Have you tried the Wireless tether application? It does the exact same thing as USB tether, but wirelessly:

He wants to share the PC's connection with the phone, USB tether and Wifi tether are for sharing the phones connection with the PC.
i have same requirement. because 3g signal in my N1 is very unstable. wifi as is. so i have only connect to internet via notebook. This is the biggest problem of my N1.
did anyone ever figure out if this is possible?
For some odd reason my captivate won't connect to my iphones wireless tether. I can connect every single other device to my iphone but my beautiful captivate won't connect any ideas???

I dont know what kind of wireless tether you're attempting with the iphone, but Android will not connect to an ad-hoc wireless connection. It must be an access point connection.
Well I don't believe its ad hoc....I don't know if some one on here is familiar with MyWi...that's the app I'm using to tether the iphone.

not true, my freinds droix x connects to my ipad tether (ad-hoc) no problem, however i can not connect with my captivate which is running froyo. any body have any ideas how to make this work?
I believe it is possible for a laptop to get internet access from a tab though the USB tether, Is it possible for it to be reversed?
Recently I broke the wifi trying to get it into ad-hoc mode, so I can't use the wifi to connect to the internet, marketplace, etc.
Is there a way for me to get a connection from my laptop to the tab?
Im on FROYO 2.2
Thanks,

Do you mean use your laptop as the wifi access point? In that case you will have to replace the default wpa_supplicant file. Search for the thread here....
Not as a wireless access point. I believe normally, you use the USB cable to get the internet on your computer from your Tab Data plan (Correct me if I am wrong)
So, I was wondering if you could use the internet connection from your laptop and forward it to your tab through the USB cable.
I use my tab as a wireless access point several times already-mostly at work because of network restrictions at the office.(Settings/wireless and networks/Tehtering and portable hotspots)
I don't know if you can use USB tethering from laptop to tab-probably not.....
Hi,
You can get a form.of reverse tethering over WiFi by using an application called Connectify (works best on Windows 7). Install Connectify, tell it which connection you want to share, then connect to the created hotbot on the Tab.
Obviously, if your Wifi is properly broken this isn't particularly useful, but Im not aware of any way that the USB interface could be used for tethering in that direction.
Hope this helps...

Yed as agc93 said, connectify shares your pc internet connection through wifi. You need to setup static ip address in the galaxy though.
Good luck

I am unable to get the Wireless Tether to work, maybe something with my wireless card, but are there any working USB tethering apps?

In the settings of the WiFi tether app, enable "Routing fix" and it should work. It's necessary for HTC devices.
I can connect to it but Windows 7 is constantly sitting there saying 'Identifying' but I can never get internet.
I tried it on my Lenovo, as well as a Sony Viao.
I enabled Routing Fix as well.
Any ideas?
What version of the wireless tether app are you using. Try using different versions.

I've had this issue too but mostly with AOSP roms with built in wireless tether apps. I see you asked for a wired tether app so heres one http://code.google.com/p/android-wired-tether/downloads/list I know this works with CM7 cause I use it from time to time
A wireless tether app that worked for me is called "A Wifi Tether AP Mesh Client" made by Open Garden, Open Source. Worked every time for me.
I'm running the most recent stock rooted, that wired tether app does not work for me.
I would also like an app that works
Yes, I use an app called easytether (well I used to, before I rooted), its easy to set up and works great. Unfortunately I think it was removed from the app store as were the other usb tethering apps, but you can just go on 4shared and download it, and the app will tell you what to do from there

I have used both wireless and wired tether that is built in to CM7 with success, every time I have used them. You should give them a try.

I like PDANet, its free unless you need to use it for secured logins, vpn, ect.
Just Google wired tether made by the same people as wireless tether and if u can't find it there look on 4shared.com

Rooted, runny SynergyMod (Android 2.3.4), I was able to get Open Garden to work. Free in the market.
I'm using pda net without an issue.
For wired tether I use easytether pro
For those having problems with wifi tether....There is a trick to getting wifi tether to work. Turn wifi tether on and wait 5 seconds. Then turn wifi tether off. Once it stops, immediately turn it back on. Then connect to "androidtether" in your PC's wireless manager.
Enjoy
I ran across this thread looking for wireless apps, so I'll just say that barnacle works just fine (rooted Thunderstick GB 1.5)

The OP was asking for wired ones though
That being said, the wired tether app with cm7 works just fine for me.
I need help setting up USB tethering from my hero to my Mac. I'm using hero deck gingerbread rom and have the USB tether option available, but I don't know what settings to input on my Mac in order for it to work. Does anybody know? I know that I can use wifi tether but would prefer to go via USB since the phone gets so hot. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

It's gonna get hot anyway it's the 3G radio that makes it hot and uses up the battery. You should just plug the phone in with usb and use the wireless then you can feel like you have a wired tether. If you plug in the phone to the computer you will burn the battery faster than the computer can charge it. Plug it into the wall to get a stronger charge.
I've found that I get faster speeds via USB on my ubuntu pc. I wish there was a way to get it to work via USB on my mac.

I used to use an app called pdanet http://junefabrics.com/android/ to tether to my mac.
It has two parts, an app for the mac and an app for the phone, you installed both and it set up a wired internet connection. Worked great for me.
the native usb tether dosnt work on mac for somereason however pda net and easy tether has a desktop client for mac that works.
or you could try usb tether from google.code it should work on mac
Thanks for the help! Pdanet works very well. It's very odd, at times I'll have solid download speeds and other times less than desirable speeds. I wonder why that is.
