z4root was pulled from the AT&T market over the weekend.
You can check this out: ponack.net (can't link cause I'm new here, sorry)
Gives you rooting instructions and (if wanted) instructions for installing the Cognition ROM...of course you can substitute your fav ROM instead.

I have actually tried using the z4root but yes it has been pulled from the market.. i actually have it on one of my phones but im not sure how to transfer it... you can share apps but the link is always invalid...
I use Google's wi-fi tether app. I just download the latest version from the interweb and install. Of course I am rooted and have sideloading fixed.

Download the Samsung one click root http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=739304&page=25 and download google's Wifi tether app or Barnacle wifi from market. If you can't find it in the market, you can use Market Enabler from the market to fool the market into thinking you are on TMobile.
Anything new on the tether without a root. Can't seem to find any of the programs that people talk about.
Thanks
dont mean to hijack but it has to do with captivate tethering..
i have assonance 5.2 and have tried tethering to my pc. seems to work but what i am really looking for is a way to tether and use my PC'S connection on my PHONE so i dont have to dwindle my data plan. ive been looking for a while actually on how i could 'reverse tether' but i guess im blind.
i know, its unbelievable isnt it?
Are you trying to tether from a laptop or pc
From a phone

yea it should b possible but not very usefull since most pc's connect through wifi anyways so it would probely b more efficient to use wifi on your phone through your home network by installing a wireless router unless you are hard wired in which case u would need some kind of mobile hotspot type of program using wifi or bluetooth also usb of some sorts
problem solved with the newest version of connectify.
edit: well, my problem anyways.
Hello everyone,
I just received my Asus Transformer (WiFi Only) and wanted to connect it to my Nexus S portable hotspot.
The Transformer found the hotspot network and even connected to it but I wasn't able to open web pages or even sync my google account.
I tested this on 2 Transformer units, Galaxy S II phone and a Nexus One (with CM7 which also can't generate a working hotspot network).
After several tests I've discovered every ROM that has Ad-Hoc support behaves the same - generate hotspot network that you can connect to but can't actually use. Also tested all WiFi tether apps on Market - all beacon ad-hoc networks, which Stock Android 3.1 can't find&connect to.
I tested all Ad Hoc supported ROMs: CM7 latest nightly, CM7.0.3 stable, MIUI latest, Oxygen and SupeAosp8.6. Finally flashed a stock 2.3.4 ROM and the hotspot feature worked perfectly. Also tested it on both Nexus S radios (KB3 and KD1).
Would love if someone can locate and fix this bug...
Probably something in the wpa_supplicant file or with DNS resolving.
Thank you!
EDIT: A solution for my specific issue - Will allow Ad Hoc support on the Transformer.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1093778
Still won't solve the main issue when you have to root and add Ad Hoc support for both devices.
I also encountered this problem.
What I did was download an App called: Wireless Tether for Root Users
I would use it anyway because it tracks data usage and enables security options.

Thanks for replying.
As I wrote in the OP, I've tried every WiFi tether app on the Android Market, including wifi tether for root users. All uses adhoc networks which stock Android devices can't see and connect to.
what solves it for me is adding dns host ip on the client computer
it works fine when you do that
I use PDAnet for tablets with my TF - it works really well. You can download it from the market.

You used it to connect your tablet to a hotspot network generated from your CM7/SupeAosp8.6, Oxygen or MIUI ROM?

Thanks, we did it as well on a Linux machine for testing but you can't set static IP on Honeycomb... at least not on stock version.
Regarding PDA for tablets, reading the app description on the Market I understand it uses Bluetooth sharing and not wifi tether. Also, it clearly says it only works for browser, email and YouTube apps. Hardly a solution.
I'll work with a Linux expert today to see if he can solve this. If so, I'll upload the files here.

Yes, I misread your op, hands up; I'm guilty as charged. However, you should perhaps be a little less dismissive of people trying to help you. Also it may have helped if you had posted your question to the correct thread in the first place (that's hardly difficult is it!).

LOL did you wake up on the wrong side of the bed today?
I REALLY wasn't trying to dismiss you... AT ALL!
Your solution will probably be great for many other people but as I mentioned in the OP, I'm looking for a specific solution for the WiFi tether, which is an option coming with stock Android and doesn't require users of any other apps or system knowledge.
As already mentioned, I'm working with a linux guy to check maybe he can make both things work - Ad-Hoc and stock Android WiFi Tether option.
If the XDA moderators think this should go into Q&A/General they can move it. I believe it should be here as it is relevant for all ROM developers here.

I agree with you buddy. I am looking for some pure soul that can develop a patch so I can connect my rooted Nexus S to an Ad-hoc wifi computer connection...
Who wants to be the king?
Can we connect to Ad-Hoc Wifi with this device? Is there any mods or apps we can use? Thanx in advance!!!
I just figured out that Android doesn't support Ad-Hoc WiFi . Too bad though, well topic closed

Not so fast, I found an app, that claims to be working. Here: https://market.android.com/details?id=nl.arendmedia.wifiadhocenabler
However, you need root access to use it. There are some other methods of enabling ad-hoc wifi, Google is your friend

Tried, doesn't work.
If anyone has a solution please share .
I have two HD+ with different rom's (CM 10.2 and CM11). Both have WiFi direct listed in the WiFi menu. On both their own id is shown but when search is used neither sees the other. Is WiFi direct not functional? do i need to change a file? Any shared help or experience would be appreciated.

If you haven't already figured it out, wifi direct is functional. You may need to forget your wifi connection first before trying anything with wifi direct.

Thanks for the reply. Yes i stumbled on that and i can move files from one to the other.
Hey XDA Devs/Users,
So, I have pretty much rom-ed my device to about 5 diff rom's over the course of three weeks. and, everytime I have been using the built-in T-Mobile tethering app. Which, all the roms I have been downloading have said "Native Built-in Unlimited Tether". I have been only downloading Steam games and using FireFox to browse sites like XDA,Reddit and Imgur. and, of course.. some Facebook. However, everytime it works flawlessly.. No Hotspot usage shows up.. then, 2 / 4 days later. It starts accruing hotspot data again. it doesn't blast up of course.. but, it seems to reset or detect after a couple days. Is there anyway around this? or, do I need to keep wiping/rom-ing the device every couple days?
Also, I should mention I tried "WIFI Tether Router" and, this doesn't work for some reason.
I should also mention what I am running.
I am running the latest 4.4.4 Kitkat "DynamicKat" rom for T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 4.
Also, Anyone have any experience with Steam gaming/Multiplayer and T-Mobile tethering?
(I know I could purchase a home connection and avoid all this trouble. But, my only option is comcrap. which, I left since I was getting 1/100th of internet speed I paid for. not to mention constant disconnects and "service outages")
I think ya meant streaming. Most if not all ur answers can be found in thread you must read to get it to work. You could also ask in the firekat thread how they doing it.

Regarding the WIFI Tether router. I read about 8 / 9 pages into that thread and it still kept taking data from the hotspot. and, the apn was set to ipv4 for both(which, I understand is the mobile data identifier for tmobile.)
and. Streaming. No, I literally meant Steam.
Also, Running Dynamic Kat 4.1 not firekat

Lol. This guy has no idea what's going on.
I always use native tethering app and my data doesn't get counted. I had to stop using WiFi tether router because I can't get the ssid to show anymore.
I use firekat though so maybe it's just a problem with dynamickat. I would try odin flash back to 100% stock and start over. I've had to do it before.
I've started seeing the same thing with Darth stalker ROM. Using native tethering. Here recently I've started seeing some usage of hotspot where before I did not.
Ma.t-mobile.com
Like right now it's showing about 105mb of usage from hotspot. And Darth also has unlimited native tethering.
So maybe Tmobile has finally realized whatever was working and has patched it on their side?
