Do I need to root my HTC one to enable tethering? Also could anyone recommend an app for tethering? I used to use tether but it does the seem to work anymore.

I have the latest build of Android 2.1 for Sprint hero and I wanted to know if it can be rooted. I dropped down to the .5 build but my gps wouldnt work and a few other things wouldn't work. I mostly just want wireless tethering but I need to root my phone but I don't want to lose any functionality. Anyone have any advice for me?

Did you tried this you device http://unrevoked.com/m/ ?
Download the APP, then run it.
I just used that app and I don't think It worked. I have the wireless tether 2.0.5-pre3 and when I try to run it it says my kernel
Doesn't have all the necessary features to run the app. Am I using the wrong WiFi tether app?

There is no method for obtaining root with that version. You have to flash the 2.27.651.5 RUU and then use the link provided earlier. Once you have root then you can install one of the 2.27.651.6 ROMs if you want.
I did it using this. Went through a lot of other "solutions" first, but they didn't apply to my phone/build apparently. This worked perfectly!
and apparently I'm to new to post to "external" links, even though it's elsewhere on this site.

You'll need a custom kernel/ROM on your phone for wireless tether to run properly.
I want to tether without adding a tethering plan being that I have unlimited data on my Captivate. Do I have to root to do this because I just updated to 2.2 and had unrooted.
Yep, you have to root. Then all you need to do is install TiBackup and use it to either freeze or remove "tethering manager".
That is all there is to it!

Thank you for responding I guess I am off to root once again lol
You could also try a custom ROM, almost all have wifi and USB tethering built in.
I couldn't ever get tethering to work on stock eclair. I gave up after a few days and have been flashing ROMs since.

I never tried the tethering on 2.1 but it works fine on 2.2.

= Rooting anyway to install Custom ROM.
Once you root on stock 2.2 you will also need to remove or rename the Tethermanager APK in the system folder as well.
I never froze or removed the tether manager & my wireless tether works fine. They can't tell if I am using it can they?

Are you using the built-in Mobile AP (wifi hotspot) to do wireless tethering? And are you runing the official 2.2 UCKB1 ROM? If so, I don't know how your will be able to make it work without actually paying for the tethering plan. The job of Tethering Manager is to contact AT&T and verify if you have paid for tethering plan on your account.

I don't think so...all you need to do is freeze the tethering manager process

I used this post to get my tether on, but now devices will appear to connect yet won't connect to the internet. Is there any known reason this would stop working all the sudden? I saw a post on a Vibrant thread that said they had issues with mobile ap. Any like experiences on Captivate?
Samsung Captivate Froyo 2.2 (official)
Is there a gapps apk pack with a working gtalk with video over 3g/4g app? Either that or any way to enable gtalk video over 3g/4g? I tried the app for root users in the market but it did not work. I am still on the stock rom for fear of flashing a new rom (see my previous post).
Have you confirmed root actually works?

I have confirmed root works. I was able to uninstall att bloat but the gtalk enabler app will not work for me. I want to wait for s-off before flashing a rom otherwise I'm thinking that would work too.

Strange I used the app on my wife's vivid and it works perfectly. All it does is Chang a setting from wifi only yes to no.

Sent from my X8 using xda premium
you need custom kernel,as x8's stock kernel doesnt support tether...
yep PDANet is a app...download and install it from market and when u opened it it will ask PDANet for PC to download...download it and install it on pc..then u can tether....
You need to install the ip tables to tether on stock. Search for it.

You can use pdanet for usb tethering. You have to install pdanet client software on yr windows- you can download it from Junefabrics website.. download pdanet app from market and install it on your phone.. don't forget to turn On usb debugging on yr phone.. just connect yr phone to pc using usb cable..

I don't know if its possible to use USB Tethering in my OB, I even tried to install some software for that but its not working, can anyone tell if there is a solution for that or it just cant do it ?
by the way am using stock Rom ,,, maybe that will help
I think with CM7 you should be able to use it, since it is built in.
no other way ?

Why dont you simply install some tether apps? Test them and tell us, if they worked, or not
There is a definite solution that I have found works on the xda forums called usb tether 3.4x or something. Google it on xda and u should find it.
I can confirm it works.
