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.

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.
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:

My stock rom, unlocked, now works with Wifi tethering.

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.
Hello,
I have the latest version of Avatar and I am trying to use any wifi tether.
The one that comes with the rom starts, but I cannot connect any clients to it. Foxfi doesn't work either. Any suggestions how I can make it work?
Thanks

First off, you never ask for ETAs.
Second, these have been available for quite a while, if you know where to look. There's an HK Edition stock rooted right in the Development forum, and a regular stock rooted here.
Don't forget to update your firmware first!
P.S. Once you enable and connect WiFi Calling, your hardware GPS will cease locking on to satellites so navigation will be next to impossible. Workaround is to disable WiFi Calling, update profile and reboot. But you'll have to do that after anytime your WiFi Calling has been active. HTC and Sprint are currently looking into the issue.
cool, thanks for the fast reply Captain_Throwback
I updated to captains latest stock rooted rom last Sat. Wifi calling works great. Was a clean install of the rom and of course updated firmware. I really haven't had any desire to run a custom rom. Captains stock is super stable and of course with root access I can do enough customizing. Thanks captain
