[Q] Wifi Tether Question

I am an eris user but my wife has the MotoDroid and she got the FRG22D update and wanted me to root her phone so she can use the wifi tether app. I thought it would be as simple as rooting and downloading the app but it seems not to be working right, do i need to install a rom or flash a kernal on her phone for wifi tether to work properly? Id prefer not to install a rom cause she just wants to keep it as stock as possible.

HCDR.Jacob Flash over any ROM Awesome Kernel 4.1 - Thanks to HCDR.Jacob and ralle.gade (+any other contributers for this)
Personally I find that, as is, the ROM is responsive enough for me, solid and reliable, I have found that with setCPU running (with standard Kernel) that I get some momentairy freezes and momentairy freezes accepting calls, just so that your aware of this... with HCDR.Jaccob 4.1 Kernel I couldn't say if the same problem exists as not tested...
This ROM, as is, has no know problems (without SetCPU running)

Re-downloading now. Will report back in a little while.

I dunno why anyone would want to keep the 3 stuff, but each to their own.

I didn't want all the three stuff, just wanted to be able to log in to My3 which is something you cannot do without having Planet 3 installed.
I have been running this rom since yesterday and not found any problems with it so far.

What about going to www.three.co.uk with wifi turned off and then clicking My 3 Account near the top right?

There is that I suppose but it's easier if there is a direct click that you don't have to log in to each time.

Set it as a bookmark. There shouldn't be a log in if you are accessing over 3's network.

Is wireless tether not working in this ROM? Can anyone confirm? Ive tried it on 2 wildfires and multiple computers.
It seems to work, but it doesn't alert me to the connection and the computer has no internet despite the wireless connection being there.
Thanks!

Is anyone interested in an option to remove 3 stuff from Rom, or at least some of it?

The tether issue is a kernel issue.
My kernel seems to only enable tethering in froyo as well, not eclair for some reason.
If I get time I can compile you a kernel which is completely stock but with wireless tether enabled

Thanks Jacob...

That would be great jacob, thanks!

What i would really like to see with this ROM is something very similar to the WildPuzzle Eclair 1.0.1 (this rom was missing the reboot option on the powerscreen and then reboot into recovery option) but with the 3 boot screen and maybe some of the apps and obviously android wifi tether working on one of them.
Jacob says its his kernel causing the tether issue, but im sure ive ran his kernels before on my eclair wildfire and had wifi tether working, also with the standard kernel ive not had it working recently. Wildpuzzle eclair 1.0 was the last distro i had it working on if that helps isolating the problem?
Just out of interest did front button wake work in this rom, i forgot to try it when i tried the rom.
Thanks

Wifi Tether works for me on this rom. My pc picked it up straight away and got internet page up straight from the off. I don't mess with kernels and setting cpu etc so it's not that I've done anything to make it work.

Strange, it doesn't work for me with this ROM or Wildpuzzle Eclair 1.0.1? If its not the ROM what could it be? Any ideas anyone?

Sure adding reboot menu is fairly straightforward thanks to the guys here at XDA... so I will add as soon as I get chance....
Prehaphs a logcat might reveal the prob?

tun.ko for 4.1.57

Attached tun.ko for 4.1.57. Works for me with VPNC. I put it in /system/lib and the VPNC Widget can load it.

awesome!!!! i was waiting for this to be able to connect to my cisco vpn!
great post!!!

Note: network connection tracking does not work
This means that after you connect to VPNC, disconnect from VPNC, turn wifi off, and then turn wifi back on, your connection will be hosed. As a workaround, you can run the VPNC widget settings pane and retoggle wifi. This resets the network state.

thx for this tread.good job

Thanks for shared! this file working well on 1.83 too

It's working perfectly on the Brazillian version of Atrix from Claro carrier.
I really wanted the possibility of compiling other modules for my Atrix stock kernel.
I really wanted to use some volume encryption functionality... As such a tool does not exist natively for Android, I`m thinking about using some kernel functinoality such as Loop-AES, LUKS, DM-Crypt or even some userspace FS for encryption (FUSE).
So, could anyone point me where i can find the source code for the Atrix kernel to try to compile those modules for it? I really think that this could be a great thing. One of the very fews things that i miss on Full Linux.
Thanls in advance.

Victor, are you using the stock kernel with this or did you need to recompile it?

I'm very sorry for the looooooooooooooooong delay in the answer.
And yes i was using on the stock kernel (Claro Brazil Android 2.2). Now i'm trying to use OpenVPN on the latest 2.3.6 official rom and it's not working anymore...
I'm thinking in some workround... any ideas?
Cheers.

The tun.ko module doesn't work, I was going to compile one for 2.3.4 (at least the stock kernel) but it seems my desktop killed itself, and I'm not going to install linux on my laptop (it seems to suck with booting from CD, and USB doesn't work... no idea why, but it works fine with Windows Discs)
Might consider using Faux's kernel, it has TUN/TAP (I've never tested though)

[Q] OG Droid Rom and Kernel needed wifi tether

I had the OG Droid before and now I;m helping out a friend. I remember that in order to get WiFi tethering to work on it you needed a Kernel that would allow it. Can any one point me in the right direction for a Froyo ROM and a compatible Kernel that can do WiFi tethering?

why not get a gingerbread rom (like CM7.1) and then install barnacle or wifi tether app?

I've never been too happy with CM in general...but i can always give it a try.
BTW would i need to change the Kernel with the CM7 rom to use WiFi tether or does the zip file containe a compatible kernel that gets flashed at the same time?

It contains the right kernel. The only bad part about tethering on the D1 is that it creates adhoc networks and some tablet devices cannot see them. There are no workarounds on D1's side.
I have my droid tether w/o problem. Even had my computer VPN over the connection, which was pretty neat!

I can't get my PS3 or my laptop to successfully connect on my D1 tethering. The adhoc network is just annoying.

[SOLVED] How too root the stock rom

Hi all!
I just recently tried to get my Wifi tether on ATT Vivid to work and it almost bricked my phone. I used the all in one tool and ended up whit a white screen. I have now managed to get back on stock, with locked bootloader and I'm ready to try again. This time, I'll ask insted of just try/fail.
I want the stock rom (or close), but rooted. Is this possible?
Should I use the all in one tool, what should I do?
I've got the Unlock_code.bin from HTC.
I have really tried to read about this, but I get confused with new/old info.
All help is warmly appreciated.

I didn't get any help here, but I found info another page.
For future reference:

Yeah - the "stock" Illuminati ROM works with WiFi hotspot... but I can't understand why his modded one (or any other modded one, for that matter) wouldn't work and would give these network errors. I can't imagine they would be using a different WiFi Router apk?
It's easy enough to say "stay on stock", or "it works with AT&T"... but if the stock works with other carriers, what is changing between the ROMs with mods that would break it? Hmmm.
Going to keep fiddling.

Maybe the kernel? After all...whenever yo flash a kernel you have to flash its WiFi libs...which is why if you don't have a proper kernel flash the WiFi doesn't work...just a guess though

No - it's not kernel related, I've narrowed that down. It has to be a permission somewhere - I think AT&T puts in a "check" to see if you have the hotspot enabled, and if you are using a carrier other than AT&T, that breaks it.
