Because the name is rediculous.
EDIT: I just got this to work and it seems great! To get it to work you need to press menu while in the app and go to settings. At the top of setting press change device-profile and choose Samsung Fascinate from the list and you are good to go (atleast it was for me).

thats cause they use ad hoc tethering which stock android doesnt support. You need infrastructure tethering which this apparently does....although I forgot to test it last night.

Exactly, i've tried some tweaks and apps which did not work until i stumbled
on this version. Google search, best thing ever.
FYI - This works for wifi on the Kindle whereas the old tether didn't. Make sure you go to settings and select the "device profile" to Samsung Fascinate.

Works great.....good find.
Thanks for the tip! This works great! Been using the vzw hotspot hack but i would keep having data issues while using it. This is working flawless! Even played 2 hrs of Black ops on my ps3 with zero issues using this. I immediately uninstalled my old wireless tether v2.07 cuz although infrastructure was supposedly supported with it, I could never get it to work. Anyway, thanks a bunch for the find and sharing this with us.
Sweet, thank you OP! I was trying to get wireless tether to work for 3 days now.
Great find, man. This works so much better for me than barnacle. Thanks for sharing.
Won't launch the Hotspot for me. Keeps giving me "Started with errors" and then in the log say it can't load the firmware

Why not just use the Verizon 3g mobile hotspots with the help of qpst.

Only issue I've had with this, is that it will randomly shut my phone off. It's weird. No reboot. Just turned off.

Same here. After about an hour of tethering using this app, it will reboot randomly. Kind of annoying when im in the middle of something
But works well other than that.

Works but again as posted above doesn't work on Market. Is there a fix or did I miss a step?

Anyway, there's a newer release of v3.0 out. You folks still getting random shutdowns with this?

Too bad they couldn't have wrapped these fixes into a 2.3 rollout. These bug fixes seem pretty trivial...
Is this the update that is going to "block" tethering like the update to the TBolt?
Not sure. I wont be surprised if they had something hidden within the update that would disable it. Dont take my word for it tho, this is only my opinion lol
Sent from my VS910 4G using XDA App
Well, I do like the fact that my keyboard won't pop up in messenging. Other than that, its no good to me. I can get app updates, don't care about the call stuff, and yah, they probably have some more bloat ware. NO THANK YOU.
Hey Tylerfixer, can you snag the keyboard fix, and work that into your decrap 2.1? Could someone get the code for that fix?
I agree. Its a useless update lmao

Did you get tether working? I don't think anybody else has, also TheCubed working with them to get it going on LG Revo..

I've got it working on my Win 7 ride. Its slow as snot, but it works. Also works on my IPAD, NOOK and a couple of other devices. It took me forever, but I did get it to work. I can't wait for TheCubed's version, I'm sure it will be much easier to use.

My update failed, keeps going into recovery and can't figure out where it downloads or how to avoid it. Any one else get this?
@ Lightning - Clockwork recovery gave me the same thing...It blocked it from installing.
Rebooted and came up like normal afte saying the install failed... I'm new to all this so I'm sure this is old news for the veterans here - but Clockwork recovery blocks OTA updates. I don't mind when it comes to minor updates such as this - But I'm wondering if I'm going to have to wait for an updated rooted Revo 2.3 ROM in order for me to experience the GINGERLUV??
@ drt054 - WIFI tethering works just fine on my revo. Downloaded the 3.1 beta2 google apk (right here in these forums)
Installed clean - fired up the app and noticed that I would get intermittent connection... Then I turned on Access-control and once I granted permissions to the connection everything went like butter. 4G speeds off the laptop no problem!

Update Fails, stock unrooted!
When I attempted to update 2 or 3 times I got the following error: "Device runs out of memory."
Is this update file saving to internal phone memory that you need root access to save to??? The file is 69.5MB and all of the 3 storage locations have over 700 MB of remaining storage.
After the 2nd or Third time it now tells me that there is "no new software update available."
Anyone else having trouble???
I'm getting the same "out of memory" error. I have plenty of space as well, so not sure what the problem is.
I'm rooted w/o clockwork mod installed.
After the new update with the dungeon the apk does not go past the gameloft screen after re-pushing the apk from my phone with gameloft support. Has anyone else that plays order and chaos on the xoom expierence the same after the update?

The game was working flawlessly with the team tiamat rom I was using untill yesterday night when the 1.1 update arrives. Now it just force closes after startup. I am so addicted to this game and I REALLY need for someone to find a solution to this.
Stupid lameloft you had 2 months to port it on Xoom like you did with Nova 2 but you preffered to port it on Facebook for more cash...
I edited the build.prop with jrummys root tools and followed this thread:

It actually showed up in my purchased app section. It wouldn't show up on a normal search. I downloaded from market and am installing now. Will post results.
Use method A
Edit: Works! My name is Machara. Hit me up
Thank you so much, it started to download 539 additional data. I will update this when its finished.

Found this the other night and wanted to share.
market.android.com/details?id=android.tether
If you open the link via the Market it will tell you that your carrier doesn't support it.
If you open the link via browser on your phone you'll be able to login to the market with your gmail credentials and invoke the download.
If you open the link via the market a second time you'll notice that install is an option.
I was able to install to my GingerVolt 1.3 without issue. I haven't actually tested to see if it works as a hotspot but it looks pretty legit.
The link actually came from the help off another HotSpot app I demoed in the market for $10. Said to use this instead if rooted.
Thanks to all of the devs for all of their time and mind blowing work. You guys are insane!

I second that. I downloaded and installed Beta 11 from the google.code repo, changed the device setting to LG Optimus S and the type to "softap". Worked perfectly allowed my rooted Nook Colors to connect FINALLY via my phone. I had used WF Garden before but could not connect my Nooks, now all my devices are connecting without any issues.
Wow. That 2nd link worked like a charm. Thanks

I've heard of a few people receiving the device for Sprint. Has anyone rooted/unlocked the bootloader and tried tethering?
Search function. Yes. It works fine. Root, install WiFi tether, generic jb setting, routing fix and miss(or whatever) clamping. And it works just fine.

Good to know.
Or you could try FoxFi, which doesn't require root. Not sure whether it works on the One, would love to hear whether anyone has tried it. http://foxfi.com/
Hopefully getting my ONE on Friday. I have to use tether for work everyday, so good to know I can use it right away.
I'll keep an eye on this thread for any other good methods. Thanks guys

If you are ok with Bluetooth tethering, then FoxFi works - but you need a PdaNet client on the connecting device. I've tested running FoxFi on my One, with PdaNet Tablet (which is free) on my Android tablet, and it worked like a champ.
If you are trying to connect to a Windows computer or Mac, you need the PdaNet Desktop Client, which can be found here: http://pdanet.co/a/
I have not yet been able to get this connection to work, when I try to pair PdaNet on the laptop to the phone PdaNet gives me an error message - I have a request in to PdaNet support.

It works just using jb0 generic. I also enabled access control. Didn't have to mess with the other stuff.
I believe that wi tether will work fine for a lap top but if you want to tether a tablet junning JB that is where you will have an issue I will try this blutooth
