I'm seeing that blue tooth tether as the best option. It works.... I still want the n7 to be able to see ad hoc networks.

Just wondering if tethering works fine with the HTC One as i use my S3 to tether to my Nexus 7 all the time

Tethering works absolutely fine as I've had my N7 tethered to it throughout the day to play different online games
I bought a Chromecast and am planning to bring it back to Canada.
My question is...will the Youtube app and Netflix app work on my wife's iPhone with Chromecast?
ie: does it have the casting button on those apps, even though she has an iPhone and is in Canada (never connecting to US App Store for update)
Were you able to get your wife's iPhone casting successfully in Canada? And if you had to use any workarounds would you mind sharing them?

Yep! Casting button worked fine with YouTube and Netflix on a Canadian iPhone and iPad, both of which had never visited US app store.
yeah the apps are universal in that sense. The chromecast setup app for mobile devices is the only one that is restricted to the US
Thanks! I don't mind sideloading for my Android but I would like to avoid explaining workarounds to iPhone-using family members.

Foxfi works fine for me. When you get the pop up telling you to contact att press the home button instead of tapping ok. The hot spot stays active this way

It stays active but did you actually connect to it and surf the Internet?

Foxfi doesn't work on and it connects but surfing the Internet is a no go we need an alternative.

Yea with a grandfathered unlimited plan so an actual tethering plan from at&t isn't offered to me. I'd be more than happy to pay the small fee if it were even offered though...

Yesterday I tried feverishly to get foxfi to work with no luck even doing it exactly as op had done. So now I see this thread and figure okay ill try again.... and guess what.... it worked... The only thing I can think of that I didn't do yesterday is I rebooted the phone this morning. ..

I use EasyTether and it works great for my needs.
You have to enable USB Debugging mode in order for it to work. I had a heck of a time finding it, so here is a quick howto...
From home, press "Apps" menu, press "Settings", press "General" tab, press "About Device", press "Build number" seven consecutive times and you should get messages about having "Developer Mode" being turned on. That's it!
Hit back and you should now see a new "Developer options" selection in the menu. Press "Developer options" and just check mark "USB debugging" if you want to enable it.
Does EasyTether support wi-fi tethering or mobile hotspot?
$.01 via NOTE 3

No, only USB and Bluetooth... I haven't found a non-root solution for WiFi yet.
You can Bluetooth tether it to another android device/tablet...
FWIW, Foxfi is working on my AT&T GN3. As others have said, just hit the home button when the popup appears. Also, I've noticed when connecting with my laptop, full internet isn't available for the first 30 seconds or so, so just give it time...
Subscribed for Samsung Wifi HotSpot Option = )
yep confirmed working with foxfi, the thing is I always need to setup the password everytime I activate the foxfi to work the secured wpa2

Confirmed working with FoxFi without issues with password with everything saving.

Do you need root to use Foxfi for tethering? This is to use the note 3 as a hotspot right?....meaning that I am connecting my other tablets to the note 3 and using its lte data?

Did you guys try any tethering widget?? for AT&T Galaxy S4 wifi tethering doesn't work directly but if you install any tethering app it will work.
Here is the one I've tried from Play store and its free.
'Tethering Widget' by HI-DEVELOP
Install the app and look for 'Tethering (full)' .
once you add this widget click thering widget(make sure you click the Wifi icon not the USB icon'.
This should enable wifi tethering.
Let me know if it works or not..
Now that we have root, can we just freeze tetheringProvsion under titanium backup & use the native app?
I've been trying to get my nexus 7 to work as a trusted Bluetooth device, but it just isnt working. Anyone know why and anyone tried this?
It has to be an active connection. Another phone or tablet is a passive connection. Smart watches, radios, keyfobs etc work.
