There's plenty of Root-Only apps on the market and there's a few tether apps that are charging for doing exactly what this does. Don't be afraid to throw it up on the market.

Figured it out

I had the same issue, what I did to fix it is I went to the START/SETTINGS/NETWORK SETTINGS then right clicked on my wireless connection and clicked repair connection. This fixed the problem right away. Not sure how the connection got messed up, it was working great yesterday. Anyways its working perfectly now and it is definately a great program.

[G1 Apps and Games] indubitably:
works flawlessly, thanks man
[G1 Apps and Games] sputnik99:
Works!

In the beginning I had some problems - just because I was stupid. This is how it worked.

1.) turn on wiFi on your G1

2.) turn on tethering on your G1

3.) allow superuser access always, when you are prompted

4.) For the first time: uncheck access control in the app (settings)

5.) you will have to go to your wireless connections on your computer (with WiFi on, of course) and try to connect to G1 tethering.

6.) on your G1 check your computer's adress in settings access control and then check access control list (both checkboxes are activated)

there you go.
[G1 Apps and Games] harry_m:
turning wifi on before starting the app is not mandatory! If it's on the app will turn it off and restart the interface with a modified configuration.

Type "#ls -l -a /data/data/android.tether/bin/tether"

For some weird reason, terminal emulator is thinking -la is the file/dir.

Any ways, I do not want to flash my phone, for I don't see why my ADP and its factory shipped super user wont work.

[G1 Apps and Games] harry_m:
Make sure tethering is not running when reinstalling binaries!
[G1 Apps and Games] waffle2:
This app is working great for me, but I have a question about using it. I got it installed and tested it out with my Ipod Touch - works great. When I use my Vista Laptop to connect to the G1Tether, I am connected, but Vista tells me I'm connected to a "Local Only" network. I can't visit web pages or ping any addresses. Any ideas? It's not the access control because my laptop is getting an IP address.
[G1 Apps and Games] lilithpro:
The App is working fine for me, but i have a little issue: When i start the app, both buttons are visible (start and stop with the corresponding icons) and i get a message that the phone is in an unknown state and i should reboot. However, i click on stop tethering, it tells me that is is stopping and i get the normal screen with the start tethering button. Clicking it starts and works fine.

And i have a feature request, maybe you could include a traffic counter in the next version, i liked that display in the openvpn-tethering solution. Maybe counter for current session and overall.

Thanks & great work!

Hmm.. is there an easy way to install this to internal memory if everything is already set to install to sd-card??

Otherwise looks promsing..
[G1 Apps and Games] netlag:
thanks for the app!

Would have prefered the "activate access control" to be slightly more seperate or centered from "allowed clients" just so my eyes could seperate the two at first glance.

I had to go back and read docs to notice that "activate access control" was actually a control and not just a header (yea..ok it has a checkbox, but glancing seems headerish)

Again, thanks for your very nice app!
[G1 Apps and Games] maxawesome:

[G1 Apps and Games] onlythoughtworks:
Good work, app works great! I just dl the source code from the repository and looked through it. Now my question. Why are the binaries from iptables & dnsmasq are shipped with the app? Are they especially compiled for the Android platform or are those stock ARM builds shipped with the Android OS?? And thanks for the very nice app!
[G1 Apps and Games] Dreddge:
Absolutely perfect! I had my phone for 30 min, never used android before, and was able to do this very easily....Just lovely. Thanks!
[G1 Apps and Games] dionysos911:
I am fairly new to this whole thing and I just rooted my phone last night. I installed this app earlier today and I can't seem to get it to start. It opens fine but when I click start tethering, it thinks for a bit then shows the same start tethering button. If I click it again it just flashes the enabling screen. I did notice that if I turn on my wireless then go back to the app it will think again but also turns off my wireless. Am I missing something here?

*disregard* I read the issues on the app website and after doing the reinstall binaries, works like a charm.

Any help or guidence you guys can give would be greatly appreciated...thanks.
[G1 Apps and Games] kemikal20:
mucho gracias senor. Man that is simple and secure. I think adding encryption would chew more battery life too, so i like the ACL method.

One thing I think that would be uber svelte.... add the SUB tether to it as well, due to battery life i'd probably have the phone attached to laptop most of the time to charge the battery.. so being able to select USB or WIFI would be great.

I was having trouble getting it to work cause my /data/data was moved to the SD card. I didn't want to move all my data back to internal memory so this is what I did.

busybox cp -a /system/sd/data/android.tether /data/tether

rm -r /system/sd/data/android.tether

ln -s /data/tether /system/sd/data/android.tether

Then in the program I went to the setup page and pushed menu and tapped the rebuild option. Now it works perfectly!

[G1 Apps and Games] Misty Blue:
I just had my troubleshooting epiphany. Instead of blaming the phone, I should've checked the firewall. I'm using Panda and it will not allow my computer to completely connect to the tether. I've gone through all the settings to try and allow it or lessen the security, but the only thing that works is disabling the firewall completely.

Can someone more awesome than me help me out?

Yes, I tried everything in the troubleshooting section. I finally got it to work. I uninstalled the TeherWifi app, rebooted the phone, then it worked. Maybe Coincidence? I dont see how it could have affected it. I tried rebooting a couple of times before that with no luck.

At any rate, Its working beautifully now. It was a good thing you did this, because TetherWifi's new update didn't work on Stock ADP Firmware, he had to do some work on it last night.

I have a toughy for u guys! Lets see if anyone can help. Lets start with what I have now.

GPRS 40KBps Down - 25KBps UP - Avg. 700ms

EDGE 192KBps Down - 47KBps UP - Avg. 400ms

I have already found a few things to improve my latencies that were previously 300ms higher (by disabling all data syncronization). I use a NETGEAR WGT624 wireless-G Router, and am on Windows Vista x64-bit.

Does anyone know of any optimizations I can make that may improve latencies or stability (the connection is very erratic, I listed averages) I know there were changes that could be made back on XP for DSL connections so I am hoping i'm not completely SOL. Any help would be great!

Hey guys,

Haven't been on a while but the tethering has an average of 50-70 KB/sec when using Wifi Tether and downloading off rapidshare. However, i remember you guys saying that if you go over a certain data limit (10gb) that t-mobile will downgrade your internet. I was downloading a 200MB file and then the speed went from 50 to 5KB.

Hi. Love the app. I just registered on here to mention a problem I've noticed. I think there may be a problem where the wifi will go innactive after a while or something. Not sure what the issue is, but basically my cousin was tethering off my phone, and after a certain amount of time it would periodically not load the page. This was typically following a period of idleness, so I'm not sure if it was the idleness or if it is just a problem with the phone, but I had to stop broadcasting and then rebroadcast in order for him to be able to pick up the SSID again.

Quick pro-tip - my XP based notebook had drivers that did not default to allowing or showing 802.11b connections (only "g" and "a"). Took a while to realize this - symptom was, of course, that I couldn't see the SSID from the phone. The cure was to change the driver config to work with B, G (and in my case) A.

This might be an issue with other machines with an Intel pci/pcie card inside of them. Or not.

Many thanks to harry_m - if I had ovaries, I'd be offering to have your babies about now.

Tx's for the HELP!

I followed this -

I was having trouble getting it to work cause my /data/data was moved to the SD card. I didn't want to move all my data back to internal memory so this is what I did.

busybox cp -a /system/sd/data/android.tether /data/tether

rm -r /system/sd/data/android.tether

ln -s /data/tether /system/sd/data/android.tether

Then in the program I went to the setup page and pushed menu and tapped the rebuild option.

=============================

I also had to do the following:

In superuser-whitelist app deleted andriod.tether

Reinstall Wifi Tether - re-boot G1 - would not work

Delete the previous connect setup on my N8x0

Reconnect to my N8x0 - would not work

Reinstall Wifi Tether

Reinstall binary - and configfiles - save

Re-boot G1

In superuser-whitelist app deleted andriod.tether

Click Activate Access-Control, save

Re-boot G1

Delete the previous connect setup on my N8x0

Reconnect to my N8x0, save - would not work

Re-boot G1

In superuser-whitelist app deleted andriod.tether

Mac-Address finally apears on G1, so can click on it, save - would not work

Re-boot G1

In superuser-whitelist app deleted andriod.tether

Mac-Address apears on G1, click on it, save (this time it stayed)

Now it works perfectly!
