For some reason I cant connect using bluetooth tethering on my galaxy gear. Is there any other way to connect to the internet? I have a Samsung Galaxy Mega and it doesnt have bluetooth tethering as an option. Can someone please assist me with this.

If you read the null tutorial or install null it lets you tether using a third party app like PDAnet, or you can flash a different ROM on your phone. Either way you're probably going to need root.
Install the null ROM which allows you to connect via bluetooth to your phone and download apps you can use to tether. If your carrier is blocking tethering, u se an app called Easy Tether for the phone and Easy Tether Tablet for the gear - just make sure you go to settings/Network Spoofing and set wifi spoofing

How do you set the wifi spoof on the gear? So basically download easy tether for my phone and easy tether tablet for the galaxy gear and I will be able to bluetooth tether?

on the null rom, go to settings, scroll down and you will see "Network Spoofer" select wifi

So do I need to download the easy tether apps first and then click on wifi spoof?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I527 using xda app-developers app
yes you need to install them either via wondershare or adb. Wondershare is the easier route
install the software on your pc, connect the gear via USB then the software will have options to the play store and search for the apps. An alternative is to search for the apk using your pc (i.e. EasyTether.apk) then downoad them to the pc. In wondershare, click on the Files/SDCARD then DWONLOAD directory, then click ADD, point it to the apk files you just downloaded than once it uploads, use wondershare and double click on the file name and it should install it one the gear

I had the problem too. Needed to factory reset, not restore anything, and the wifi tether for root app was working again.
Needs specific settings though. I'll share tomorrow sometime if someone else doesn't first. It's easier to paste from the pc.

They got the native working cuz they can't use the WiFi tether app.
We got a modified WiFi tether app to use.

talking about wi-fi direct alternatives, i would like to ask here for more wi-fi direct alternatives as i am on PA, also should the other person also have same app to be able to transfer through that app? or is that i can use this app and other person can still receive it via wi-fi direct?
Yes, the other person has to have this app installed.
But trust me it's worth of it.
The app works like this: receiver makes an WiFi access point (app does that automatically) and the other phone just connects.
Some other apps :
WiFi file sender
Hoccer (maybe spelled wrong)
Bump.
But as far anyshare is the best
Try it

Nah, I don't think so. Only original wifi direct can connect. I haven't seen any other app to send via WIFI direct.
Just send Your friend (or whoever You want to send files) anyshare and You're ready to go.
While I'm sending from my note to sgs2 the transfer is ~1.3MB/s and it's much easier in use. Wifi direct sometimes has problems with connecting, custom ROMs don't support it well. That's why I have used WIFI direct like 6 times in my life.
Just give it a try
Never knew of these apps...do they work on other phones as well? Thanks ! Will give them a try :thumbup::beer:

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?

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...

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?
Thinking about rooting my samsung galaxy gear, but wanted to know if I plan to root it and flash a custom rom will I still be able to receive notifications? Ive been told if you flash a rom you will not be able to receive notifications because you will no longer be able to add gear manager. Someone please give me your input

You need gear manager for phone to communicate fully with watch. Otherwise it's just a fancy Bluetooth headset
I know that installing custom-ROM (ie. null) enables bluetooth tether.
But for some reason, I prefer to stay in stock-ROM and I want to use bluetooth tether by modding system(or...3rd-party app?).
Q. How can I enable bluetooth tether on stock-ROM(rooted)?
(Kernel? Binary? Library? Framework?)
